Hello all...
I am new to the Android platform.. Bought a Samsung Galaxy Tab GT-P7500
Android Version: 3.1
Baseband Version: P7500XXKI1
Kernel Version: 2.6.36.3
Build Number: HMJ37 P7500DXKI2
Bought it in Singapore, and noticed that the "Dutch" language was not available. I tried using these locale changing programs, and they work, but only change parts of the OS.
Is it quite straightforward to install another firmware to make it a Europe model? If yes, which firmware do I actually use. Have been reading in the other forums, but really cannot find which one to use.
I do understand that it is only this Odin program I need to install another firmware and it works? Can I use the same program to first backup my current firmware in case something goes wrong?
Sorry for all these questions, but have been reading through many threads now, and all seems to be for the professionals, and in Android it is not me at the moment.
Hope someone can help out.
Thanks everyone.
hi man regarding the firmware if you want a stock firmware you can go to samfirmware.com and search for the one of your model and area or you can take a look on the android development area of the forum and see if there is a firm that you like to try and regarding the odin thing you can read the instructions here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1171089 and have the last version of cwm here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1090289 you will now what it is once you read the first post oh and yes with this you can make a back up of the original firmware in case you want to go back
hey,
thanks for the links already.
however, still not 100% clear to me.
I have downloaded the Open Europe firmware for the GT-P7500, but still it is unclear on how to exactly do the change through Odin.
I can simply load the downloaded .TAR into the option CSC of Odin and push start? The TAR itself contains .bin and .img files
Any options that should be selected or not in this Odin software?
Sorry for the stupid questions people... Really new to this, so some detailed procedure should have been great..
And for newbies not that 100% clear that thread, at least not for me..
If it's a single tar file, flash as PDA.

Sent from my GT-P7500 using XDA App
Thanks.. Noted.
And do I need to do the procedure first to root the device or not?
Then last question, do I leave the default options "Auto Reboot" and "F.Reset Time" on, and all the rest off? (Re-partition / Flash Lock / Phone EFS Clear / Phone Bootloader Update)
Sorry for the questions, but once I am set want to try, and afraid I might destroy it so...
Thanks to everyone for the help already...
Hello,
I just installed the new firmware without doing the root procedure first.
All seems to work fine, and now I have all languages available.
I cannot update it through KIES, will look some more for that.
But wondering, can I download and install an update directly on the Galaxy Tab? It says one 99Mb update is available for the system.
Wondering if this will destroy it or not....
Anyone who can answer this?
So Ive scoured the forums and posted in multiple threads and no one has answered any of my questions. Im a complete newbie when it comes to rooting my G925F S6 Edge and just need some difinitive answers.
My build number is very different to the one on the Cf Auto Root page.
My build number is MMB29K.G925FXXS3DPF2
The build number for the G925F Cf Autoroot file is
MMB29K.G925FXXU3DPBK
Will this 100% work on my device? And also once flashed what firmware should I flash to re-enable deep sleep. Will any G925F firmware work or do I need my build number specific firmware. If anyone could answer these questions it would be great ive read 7 hours of this forum and still have no clue.
Also do I lose finger print scanner?
We arent all pros there is alot of noobs wanting to root there phones for many different reasons and all we are asking is for someone with a bit more knowledge to reach out to us and help.
Many thanks in advance to who ever reaches out to help me.

Do you still need help with this?
I have just flashed a Europe firmware meant for H815 to H815T. In doing so I have upgraded from lollipop to marshmallow. The firmware is so smooth and fast except that there is a big problem. NO SIM signal. I know that this is because of some base band problem. Can you guys please guide me on what to do? I had tried to search but got no satisfying answer. Please also note that Phone Information shows "This application cannot run on your device".
Please help me as my device is unable to receive calls/SMS.
Thank You

Hello i am new here but have seen the positive and helpful feedback that is given here. So i just flashed my galaxy j7 perx because i wanted to unroot but found out my carrier is incorrect. my original carrier is boost mobile but now it is just sprint, which is not correct. is there anyway to solve this:
my baseband version is: J727PVPU3ARC2
my model number is: SM-J727P
but i do not know if my baseband is correct since i switched providers.

seems like you have flashed a rom which is stock but with the carrier package, try reflashing without including the data file which is named after sprint
i did it with Vodafone and worked like a charm back in the day
