My girlfriend has one of these tablets (the 5.0 model) and I love it so I'm ordering one tomorrow. Straight away I'm going to want to be flashing a custom ROM to it. Can someone point me to information for this device? I've flashed many Samsung Android devices before with Odin and what have you.
Cheers.

For flashing it is through odin/heimdall or CWM (CM9 roms for example)

Thanks, i thought as much. Whats the deal with them being bricked? I remember reading about an EFS.tar?
Sent from my YP-G70 using XDA
Bricking means that your device will not work. Its best that you backup ur device before flashing incase it happens and you need to install a custom kernal to using Odin.

I think my phone has a problem so I'm planning to take it back to the place where i bought and get it replaced (as it's only been like a week)
However i rooted my phone, so i was planning to use triangle away to remove this, but it says i need to reflash with the stock firmware to be perfect, but the stock firmware for my region did not come out yet.
What should i do?
Please give me some help

Hey I'm Australian and own an S3.. I'm sick of Vodafone update strategy.. I want to root, what do you think?
Sent from my GT-I9300T using Tapatalk 2
Ye root it, i rooted it too, except i think i need a replacement cause my phone has a problem.
Rooting could do lots of stuff.
If you ain't that good with computers and you don't want to stress yourself finding stuffs and working on it, don't do it cause it can risk your phone and might not brick.
Otherwise it's great to root
I've had the GNex.. I just hope it's as easy. Vodafone seriously piss me off..
I think Im Gonna root it.. just regret I didn't do that the moment I got it.. cause I seriously can't be stuffed going through the whole set up process again..

flashing is just to do with odin...so
if you get the firmware file and use odin
no need of rooting

You can also download latest Official Firmwares from http://samfirmware.com
Sent from my MB525 using Tapatalk 2
Yes. But you'll be able to do so with root too...
Many people confuse the two, so just to clarify:
Rooting means having a tiny modification in the phone's operating system so it doesn't restrict you from superuser commands.This will not affect your installed data or ability to upgrade.
Custom Roms is replacing the stock rom with a new operating system package someone else built which may or may not largely differ from Samsung's own version.

I just want an official non branded ROM .so I can get the latest updates without carrier delays .
Sent from my GT-I9300T using Tapatalk 2
There are always delays, whether carrier-, region-, or whatever-related.
You can flash the newer Rom's through Odin tough (again: the flashcounter does not increase with original ROM's) to get it as soon as the file is released.
Unbranded S1's had to wait several months for Froyo update over here...
Where can I find the latest official firmware?
Also since I'm in Australia.. does it matter what region firmware I update to? Say.. can I update to an European based firmware?

Hi all, (this is my first thread)
I wanted to ask a couple of questions about which I am confused...
I am currently running stock 4.1.1 on rooted international galaxy s3..
Q1. Is there anyway I can get 4.1.2 OTA Without unrooting?
Q2. I am not sure whether the country I bought my phone from has got the update yet... So is there anyway I can check that...
P.S I got my phone from dubai..
But I live in India...
Thanks.

If you already have CWM recovery why not use CWM to flash a custom 4.1.2 rom thats based on Stock firmware (like Android Revolution HD)?
Thats just as easy, has more support, rooted and you'll have future updates faster as well.
I already downloaded omega v34 but didn't flash it because people have lot of issues with it.. Lag, random reboot etc. Stock rom will be more stable I guess..
I haven't tried revolution though...
I'll try it now..
Any other rom you recommend?
Thanks!

I had the same experience, Omega had loads of launcher redraws and sudden lag. No such experience on ARHD with Perseus kernel. That kernel now even has the exynos exploit fixed.
Nope, all other roms i've tried i never used more then a few hours.

Yeah, everytime you flash the stock image, you'll have to root the phone again... but so what?? I have my mobile sine 8 weeks and i think i flashed it 10times now, and lots of custom-rom installations, configuring the phone etc....
It's not a hard work, you just have to read carefully BEFORE you start rooting, modding or whatever. This forum is awesome and till now i really found an answer to my questions everytime without bothering the ither guys with a question that is already answered a thousand times just have to use the search... so, good luck and have fun with your rooted mobile. By the way, i recommend the Omega-ROM for galaxy S2 and S3, the guys are.doing a great job with their ROMs. If you own a S3 LTE (i9305) i recommend the Pandoriam ROM, works best for me
Best regards

Haha.. Thanks buddy.
Btw, I am not new to rooting, I have flashed at least 15 rom's on my old phone(galaxy ace)
But I was not a member of XDA then.. I just used to read....
But since s3 is much more expensive I wanted to be absolutely clear about the smallest of things...
Because with great power comes great responsibility.

This is the Latest update for the above. works with our at&t Note.
I flashed it using http://samsung-updates.com/Odin307.zip
1. put your phone in Download Mode. Plug your device to your computer, open Odin 3.0.7 click on PDA and find the tar file.
Make sure you let Odin finish flashing. Only unplug your device when Odin gives you a message saying, PASS.
Now reboot your phone to recovery and wipe data and reboot.
Good luck

It's true...a few of Us flashed the original N7005 firmware [without any issues] when the first ICS update came out. It doesnt take any special edits as it's the same device only lacking NFC and LTE. Works so well that devs built a few ROMS from the DXLJ2 base.

Hi folks,
First off, I'm the noobest noob you'll have seen in a while , I swapped my iphone 4s yesterday for a galaxy s3, best decision I've made in a while tbh.
Today I rooted the phone using odin and all that, but the reason I rooted in the first place is still eluding me.
I want to debrand the phone and get rid of the boot screen and useless apps.
I've searched through the forums and internet and basically I'm just plain confused! If someone could explain to me the process or point me in the right direction I would be eternally grateful. I just don't know certain things like can I flash using filles not for XXELLA etc.
For the record:
4.1.2.
XXELLA
Vodafone (me)
O2 (unlocked phone)
Thanks in advance :laugh:
Debranding is the process of flashing a stock rom that is unbranded. You would get this from sammobile.com (BTU is uk unbranded). You would flash via odin. Guides are all in general > sticky roll-up thread

First off thank you for the reply rootSU,
I just have two questions,
1. I can flash BTU even though I have an irish O2 phone yes?
2. Am I right in assuming tge BTU file must be XXELLA?
1) Yes but you may want the irish unbranded. Check the csc sticky in general for what that is
2) no? Flash the latest.

Just as an update after following your guidance I am now the owner of a de-branded SIII.
Just as an FYI addition I found through research that the BTU file covers both the UK and Ireland and was the one that worked.
