My sister has an original galaxy tab 10.1. I noticed it is running Android version 3.1
The tablet was purchased in the US, though she's not currently in the United States. Not sure if that matters, but she's not received any OTA update.
This is a WIFI only tablet. How can I remotely upgrade it to ICS 4.0 or Jellybean. She doesn't want any customized ROM on it.
Firstly, where can I get stock ROM for ICS 4.0?
Secondly, if I remote into her PC, I am able to see the contents of her tablet, when it is connected to her laptop. Does that help?

The link above has all the stock roms but prerooted. I flashed the rogers one for my dad through CWM the other day worked very good.
You can flash CWM recovery through odin and then update it through ROM Manager app.(That is how I did it)

this is for the wifi version, if you have any other version you have to find the model number and search how to root it.
at the end, you will have a tab that look like stock but is rooted.

I recently got a 10.1 Wi-Fi. It came with the TouchWiz update preinstalled. I rolled back to stock 3.1 to see what it was like and now am trying to go back to TouchWiz.
The tablet updates from stock 3.1 to the build number UEKG4 (an ~11MB update)
After this, the tablet says No Update Available when checking for updates. Plugged in USB using the Samsung Kies program, the tablet is recognized, but there is no firmware information listed.
Stock rom, stock recovery and cannot update any further? Anyone have ideas or somewhere they can point me to resolve this?
Thanks

I believe you used the stock 3.1 ROM of a I/O tab. not the retail one.
I/O tabs have not received any TW update till now.
If you want to go back to touchwiz please flash the "ROM | 001002-P7510_KME_Restock.zip" from http://p7510.teamovercome.net/?page_id=20 using ODIN
Worked perfectly!
Thanks a ton!
i have a stock tab that i've had since a few days after they were released and dont have touchwiz and every time i look for an upgrade it says that nothing is available.... shouldnt there be one out? Am i doing something wrong? thanks for the help.
Hi everyone
So I have Tab 10.1 which I bought in June... Later on I rooted it, a while ago before the touchwiz firmware update came out. Once that came out, I tried to update it numerous times (im not sure whether the tablet was still rooted or not when I tried to update) and the update failed continuously... Anyhow, don't ask me why I did this but I erased my system in the bootloader!!! I didnt realise that it was literally the OS I was clearing.... Eventually I found a firmware file on the internet for it and flashed it... Previously my Tab was running the HMJ37 UEKMB firmware, now it is running the Europe HMJ37 XXKFC firmware which has touchwiz already...
Now what I want to know is, is this firmware genuine, and will I be able to recieve future updates on it such as ICS when they are released? If not is there any place where I can find the UEKMB firmware to flash to my Tab??

It doesn't matter if it's genuine, don't use stock firmwares anyways. Custom ROMS are better. Wait till someone on this forum develops a sick ICS ROM.
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
So, what is the coolest rom available at the moment for my Tab?? Just rooted it but duno what rom I could install.... Preferably one with more customized UI on top of TW... I saw a few pictures of home screens set about the windows phone 7 look... Is there a rom for that?
please refer here mate..

You can get samsung official firmware from them: http://m.samsung.com/us/support/downloads
But I prefer "In Paris" by Task650 and Phantom.
Hey all!
So I bought a Galaxy Tab 10.1 on contract a week ago. Since it's stuck with Honeycomb 3.1 my goal is to update it to 3.2.
The problem is 3.2 isn't available for my operator, that is VIP Croatia. I've tired using Kies to update it but it says I already have the latest software available and it says (VIP) at the end of the name of software version.
I'm aware that I could root it and install a generic one but my concern is that I won't be able to return it to the firmware bound to my operator in case I need to turn it in for something and using my warranty.
So if I do root it and install a generic 3.2 and I decide I want to return it to the Honeycomb 3.1(VIP) will I be able to and not lose my warranty? Will the (VIP) indicator that shows in Kies stay even if I change the software because the tablet will still be locked to my operator?
Install clockworkmod with rom manager and make a nandroid backup.
With a nandroid backup you can restore your default rom.
Save your backup to a computer to be save.

Thank you! I will try it.
Ok it worked. I just have another question. I installed this version of 3.2 which is suppoused to to be the stock one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1405324
If you look at this link it was supposed to contain some of the apps like Samsung Media Hub, Amazon Kindle and this Live Panel feature. It's also supposed to bring HW Acceleration to the UI, but it still lags like before on 3.1 and increase the performance of tablet in general.
So did I install a wrong version of the firmware? It says it's 3.2 in the about section.
I'm new to this forum & to android systems.This is my first android device.
I bought a Samsung galaxy tab 10.1 (wifi)GT-P7510 recently.Since I could not find my language on it I rooted it .But after I installed tiff files by replacing the existing one/s I couldn't boot the tab.So I had to use a backup(given on the rooting package) that has been saved on my tab. As a result now I have a rooted tab with HC 3.1 . I want to have 3.2 which I had when I bought the tab. I cannot get updates since its rooted.I cannot return to stores bcos its rooted.I cannot sell it for a reasonable price b'cos it has an older version.
Could someone help me please either to unroot in 3.1 or to updagrade to 3.2 (rooted) or to android 4.0
Thank you

I think the answer most people would like to give you: use the search function!
But since I'm in a good mood today.. go to sammobile.com, register and go to the firmware page, search (!) for "p7510" and get the firmware you desire (version/country). For the flashing part, well.. let's just say you can find that out yourself, maybe there's a guide on the same site as well.. (could it be?)

thanks for your advice.
I checked for the firmware of my samsung galaxy tab 10.1 (UEKG4)
I could not find the firmware .It was bought in The Netherlands.

Well, for The Netherlands you should take the latest firmware for Europe (or Open Europe, don't know the difference, just take most recent). After you flash that, you'll probably get XEN as your code.
Hi guys i have got a Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 I am not sure if its 3G or 4G as it seems there are two available, its a south African unit, so i am guessing that its related to the European market, i would like to install clockwork recovery and have installed in on my 7inch tab, via odin, i am just wondering what version of CWR should i use or which one is best suited for this tablet? And if anyone could point me to the links for the 3g European version of CWR, or is it possible to use the Wifi only version for this tablet..
Edit. : I have updated to ICS manually via the android menu & have downloaded the Filesfordummies.zip ~ and would like to know if its possible to flash recovery-cwm_4.0.0.4-sam-tab-10.1.tar.md5 on my device?
thanks in advance for any help.

If we assume you got a galaxy tab 10.1 and not the down-specified galaxy tab2, my guess would be it's a P-7500
I would in that case recomend go for Cyanogenmod and flash bootloader, modem and recovery (which is clockwork) from either
http://droidbasement.com/galaxy/roms/cm10/p4/ or http://droidbasement.com/galaxy/roms/cm10.1/p4/ depending on if you want CM10(Android 4.1) or CM10.1(Android 4.2)
Read more on Pershoots blog http://droidbasement.com/db-blog/
Choose whichever but DO NOT MIX THEM.... because the filestructure is completely different since Android 4.2 supports multiple useraccounts.
I just love CM10.1, but I'm a bit of a hacker and also a gambler..... If you like it safe, stick to CM10 for now
