[Q] HELP! installed wrong ROM - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys
I hope someone can helpout.
I followed a complete guide to install the latest cyanogenmod nightly ICS on my tab. however for some (stupid) reason I accidentally downloaded and installed a ROM for the Galaxy tab 10.1 wifi and not the Galaxy tab 10.1 3G.
The result is that I can't use 3G and the tab won't let me install any other ROM version (tried different Cyanogenmod versions and the Kang ones).
I'm getting the following message:
assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "p4" ll getprop("ro.build.product") == "p4"
E: error in /sdcard/cm-9-20120904-NIGHTLY-p4.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted
Does anyone know what I can do to get my 3G capability back
Thanks a lot in advance

You need to completely wipe (/system, /data/factory reset) and then install the correct 7500 (3G) ROM for your device. If that still doesn't work, you may be faced with using Odin to flash the stock firmware for your particular model.

I second that, although I "personally" would go the Odin route and start fresh anyway, but again thats just me, as I'm a bit funny with things like that, knowing I've started completely fresh would help with trouble shooting any further problems that may occur as a result of the mix up.

Thanks so far guys.
I tried installing the stock firmware and ended up in a reboot-loop. I recovered the tab by following a thread on this forum and is now running Android version 3.0.1 ......However, the tab still thinks it's a wifi version (GT-P7510) with no 3G capabilities.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks again.

I wonder if this could just be a build.prop somehow hanging around from the wrong rom or something. When you installed the stock firmware did you do a factory reset by chance? If not that could potentially be why...
Although factory reset on the stock kernel is a scary thing to do these days. Read up on the eMMC brick bug before proceeding.

So i managed to get the tab working on a 3.2 rom.
Bit i still don't get why i can't get the ics cyanogenmod Rom installed.
Please forgive the noob question but could it be that my kernel is too old?
Thanks again

It could be something to do with the version of recovery you're using, I'll see if I can find the link to the correct one for you.

Few problems with phone!

Hey there everyone, I'm a bit of a newbie here and only know a bit about phones (still learning).
Basically my first problem is that I've been trying to install cyanogenmod 7.1 stable on my phone but with no success; I have tried both downloading off the cyanogenmod website for Samsung Galaxy S II and using ROM manager Premium, every time I try it gets to Opening Package... Installing Package and then if I try installing via cwm it gives me a kernal panic upload mode error and if i try and use rom manager it just tries to install it and then just reboots back into 4.0.3 ICS. Please ask if you need any info to solve this and I will try and find out.
Another small problem is recently I formatted my phone in CWM including EMMC by accident and now my "y" and "z" are the wrong way around on keyboard. This isn't a big problem considering I now have a custom keyboard to fix this, its just a small error that I would like to fix.
Any responses would be appreciated!
Catley.

As for the keyboard, use the thread for whatever unofficial ROM you're on. Sounds like you have the wrong language/region set and/or wrong CSC. Search for QWERTY and QWERTZ (you don't actually say which is the "correct" way).
Thank you for your help. I have been doing a lot today. I looked at that link and ended up installing cyanogenmod 9 nightly. Then I tried to get cyanogenmod 7.1 stable on but still couldnt. I gave up in the end and looked up pure ICS roms. So that's what I have on here now. Pure ICS special edition. So all is fixed. Thank you again for your help!

Any Advice

Hi all,
im new to this so please forgive me if this question has already been posted previously!
Ive been searching for countless hours on the web and different forums to try and find a solution!
My prob is this,
I rooted my fone using Odin and what i thought was a proper CFW but once i downloaded ROM manager off the Google store and tried to install the latest cyanogenmod 9, i constantly keep getting a message coming up saying "E: failed to verify whole package signature"
Firstly, I am confused whether to downgrade back to stock firmware and then try to upgrade from that; or, find a way to upgrade to cynanogenmod 9 straight from what i have installed ATM.
My fone specs are:
Samsung Galaxy S2 GT-I9100P
Android 2.3.4
Baseband: I9100PBVK12
Kernel: 2.6.35.7-I9100BVKH2-CL453351
[email protected] #2
Build number
Gingerbread.BVK13
Can someone please help me out with this in plain english as i am constantly running into a brick wall trying to figure it out!!!
Many Thanks

Where does it say anything about ROM manager?
What did you use to root your phone? Also can you get into cwm recovery by holding down volume up, home and power buttons when u turn your phone on?
I see you have the i9100p, I'm afraid I know nothing about that version but this will help people pinpoint the problem
sorry guys i used Rom Manager to download latest version of CWM
Rom manager on Samsung phone uses a kind of virtual recovery from what I understand.
You have to have flashed a root kernel which I'm guessing you have as you say you used Odin. What did you flash with Odin?

Not to sure what i flashed with as it was quite a while ago, i following http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1419102 to try an install CM9 now lol the noob proof edition
OK so I had a read and the i9100p is the same as the i9100 only with nfc see here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1480245
Ok this should work for you.
-Download cm9 resurrection edition from the official thread + the latest nightly and put the nightly on you internal SD.
-Flash cm9 resurrection edition via Odin as per instructions.
- when its booted up, turn your phone off and enter recovery using the combo I mention above.
- flash zip from SD and pick the latest nighty.
Should get you up to speed, good luck

Thanks a bunch mate! Appreciate u helpin!
ive read that its not wise to use titanium backup to restore a backup after installing cm9, is this true?
No problem
If you use titanium for user apps only and not system apps you won't have to much of a problem. But other than that if you do find problems with apps after restore just a wipe of the app data from settings should do the trick.

ok thank u!
big problem tho, i was flashing with odin and its froze about 3/4 of thw way through, have i bricked it??
I'm honestly not sure ive never had that happen to me.
Are you sure its just not taking longer than expected? I'm out atm so I can't have a search for you but if I remember right there is a 'have I bricked my phone' sticky on one of the s2 forums you might find some advise there. Sorry I can't help more

P4 recognised as p4wifi

Ok I had a few problems to get CM on my tab so I tried many ways to install it. At the end I managed to install it but now my tab is recognised as p4wifi and not as it should just p4. Rom manager wants to install p4wifi updates and CWM will always give me error 7 if i want to install a p4 ROM. Can anybody help me to get my tab to work right? THX

Technically the model code "P4" is a designation for all Galaxy Tab 10.1's, and if yours is the WiFi only model, then yours is the "P4WIFI"

It's a 7500, a p4 and I have a sim in it.
Basicly it wants to be a wifi only
Then depending on your carrier, it would either be a P4TMO or a P4VZW.

It's not T-Mobile P4TMO nor a Verizon P4VZW.
Just a straight P4 GT-7500 that wants to be a GT-7510.
I'd like to know how to fix it
Did you perhaps install the wrong flavour of cwm? Lots of people are having problems installing roms due to assert errors, thinking the fix is to remove the asserts. Instead, they just need to put the right version of cwm on

Right, I keep having the same problem over and over again, which seems to be caused by Rom Manager (for which I have paid the premium version). It keeps downloading/flashing "p4wifi" variants of CWM and/or downloaded ROMs such as cyanogenmod nightlies.
I don't quite understand why. Every time, I have to go back to Odin3, reflash a proper p4 version of CWM and a manually downloaded p4 variant of whatever ROM I want to install, Rom Manager just gets it wrong
restock via odin with a P7500 firmware then root/get latest cwm from pershoot for p7500 5.5.0.4 get the "P4" rom from cyanogenmod Site and flash it...

[Q] Problem Flashing PAC-Rom 19.9.0

Ok, I know this is not the dev section, but I still haven't done the 10-posts rule. So, I am going to post my problem here and see how it goes.
Here it is
I have the previous PAc rom from nims11(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1911478) And running great.
Yesterday I tried to upgrade to the 4.2 PAc rom from OldDroid(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2141770), and it is failing. The flashing seems to be done successfully, but when it comes to booting, after the bootanimation it get errors like "Setup Wizard has stopped" and it doesn't open at all.
I tried re-flashing, wiping everything, re-downloading in case the dl was corrupted, even reflashing the kernel. But nothing.
Any thoughts?

What phone do you have? S5830i or S5830? If you have the "I" variant that ROM shouldn't work... and this will need to be looked into, however i believe you're in the wrong section with an s5830

Galaxy Tab 10.1 (P7500)
Hi all.
I have a galaxy tab 10.1 GSM (P7500).
I flashed the correct version of CM (nightly builds) and the gapps as instructed. I did this 3 times already with different versions.
All is fine except the screen becomes unreadable after a screen timeout and back on. This happens every time. The only way to get the screen back is to reboot it. But the minute you switch the screen off and on, the problem is back.
This doesnt happen if I flash the official rom.
I have looked all over for a solution. This is my last resort. I dont want to go back to the official rom since its old and i like the new features of the Android 4.2.2.
I attached a picture of the screen

Reboot with Cyanogenmod
Hello!
I was using cm-10.1-20130727-NIGHTLY-p4 on a Samsung Tab 10.1 P 7500 since August 2013. About two weeks ago the device started do to an instant shutdown of the device
- when opening chrome
- when checking memory
- when trying to remove chrome, even with ES File Explorer.
Chrome version is 34.0.1847.114
This behaviour is reproducible.
I updated to the February 16 2014 nightly - no change.
I wiped Data and cache in recovery mode - no change.
I get no reboot using chrome beta 35.0.1916.86
How can I get a logfile of the crash?
Where can I send it?
Any other recommendations?
Thank you
Where can I send it?
