Hi Max,
do you know if there are any compatible roms for p5100 with 3G capability?
Hi All
I have a problems with Roms not working with GT-P5100 galaxy tab 2 10.1.
No problem installing, i do have a sim card with only data downloads and works on original rom but not on majority of the roms out there.
I have tried the VPN and still no luck.
Please help anyone
Thanks
Sorry i meant the 3g not working on the roms
Hi Max,
No one else knows these devices better than you, sooo..
I may have met my match today in the Tab 2 (SPH-P500 Sprint. 4G) running Android 4.0.4.
Though Odin and Heimdall both push recovery.img to the device, the Tab will absolutely not enter CWM recovery. The blue “Recovery Booting” appears but then disappears within a second – regardless of the duration or order of pressing Power and Volume Up. I have tried with and without the SD card installed — no difference.
Also, it seems impossible to reset the Tab to factory settings. After restarting, a hard reset is the only thing that will bring it back up. When it reboots, all of my settings and apps seem intact.
After days of work with no results, I would really appreciate any help! My next step would be to Sprint where I’ll hope the tech won’t care my Flash Counter is so high.
Baseband version is: P500VPLI6
Kernel: 3.0.8-112677se.infra@SEP-62 #1
Build: IMM7D.P500VPALI6
HW version: P500.05
Thank you,
Robert
i have tried to find your instruction on rooting my galaxy tab 2 10.1 model GT-P5113 and also my galaxy note 10.1 either and what i did foung dnt work, what can i do?
Hi Kyree,
What hardware version is your Tab 2 running? A number of us are on P500.05 and cannot root. This HW version appears bulletproof for now.
Best,
Robert
