I loaded the P7510 root files on it (BAD IDEA for anyone reading).
I tried to "re-stock" it with the P7500 stuff and it wouldn't work. (when I get home I will try to find the right .pit file and try it again)
I tried to push a new rom with ADB and flash it and so far no joy.
If anyone has any ideas I am open to them.
if anyone has the t-mobile 10.1 tab.... CWM recovery seems to work. I need a full system backup to restore my tab. If anyone can help it would be appreciated.

What version of the CWM do you have? I found that 4.x and 5.x versions create different file types for the nandroid backup and they are not compatible.
I can create a backup for you tomorrow for any of the CWM, just tell me which one you need.
[EDIT]
I have a unbranded 10.1 3G and the backup would be from a modded Overcome ROM, but at least you would get the tab back to work.
[/EDIT]
I think it needs to be the T-Mobile ROM. I can flash stock roms for the P7500 if they are the same. Anyone else try any roms on the t-mobile tab?

Didn't the T-Mobile just release? Your the first post I have seen for it. What the model? P7500 or something else?
Also, FYI or not, this does not belong in the Dev section. Please read the rules for posting.

It was meant as a combined warning and cry for help I figured since this is where everyone comes for info on root... the warning should be here too. The model number is SGH-T859
you may need some one else to do a t-mobile rom dump, and reflash either through cwm or odin. Did you check the samsung firmware site for a recovery image? As a last resort, you could exchange it for a new one. And of course make a good backup in the future to go off of.
BTW, that is odd that your model number is so different from the normal gt-7xxx. Just to be sure, this is a galaxytab 10.1 or 8.9, right?
Yeah it is a 10.1 .... t-mobile always has a new number but it does surprise me that the p7500 stuff isn't working... I will try again tonight. If anyone has the T-Mobile 10.1 tab please send me a system backup

Moving to General
Not surprised the model number is different considering the LTE from Verzion is different as well.
ok so I got it to work with the 002001-Overcome_CWM_Recovery_v5.1.2.3.tar here
I am making a backup. I couldn't get the "re-stocking" part to work. It looks like we need a .pit file. But if you want the CWM recovery that should work.
So far my wifi hasn't come back :'(
I am going to try a few more things and report back
Wish I'd seen you're posts sooner. I pretty much followed you right off the same cliff. I was hoping that an easy solution was at hand. I'm much more a noob at this stuff, and am having trouble communicating with the tablet at all, much less doing anything to problem solve it. I do have CWM v4.0.1.4 working and would be happy just getting the stock kernal back on it. Guess I have a lot of reading and learning to do this week.
If anyone can help, I'd (we) would really appreciate it. I have a long hospital stay coming up on the 14th and this tablet was going to make it a bit more bearable. Is there a way to remove CWM so I could do a return to T-Mobile? Just a thought...
Thanks for any input.
Hmmm this is for the new 10.1 4G model? I have a stock one I had been waiting to root til I could find out if existing methods worked or not
can u pls send me your stock boot.img?
would like to add support for it.
thx.

Yeah, don't root it yet. The current root methods don't support it. Man, if you could provide pershoot with an image and/or me with a nandroid backup that would be fantastic. I don't mind waiting for the excellent developers here on XDA to do their stuff (it's always worth it), but I've got about a week to get mine up and running again.
Thanks for whatever you can do.
I got mine to root just fine, using the process in the stickie. I used odin and then cwm to install root. Stayed on stock rom and used Ti backup to uninstall bloatware. I am happy as can be

point me to the recovery image you used, I'll dump a nand and upload it (asking for link just to ensure you get exactly what you need)
HI
Hi, I have a model like yours, t-mobile model: SGH-T859, if you send me a step by step I can send the files you need to get your table
Anyone has a solution for this right now?
I am stuck with the same problem
Thanks
Thanks for posting this info, I am sure this post has saved a lot of ppl from jumping off the same cliff.
Hi SIFUs,
I just got myself a pre-loved Samsung Galaxy Note and haven't played with one before, i just realised after couple of hours, it has been already rooted to 2.6.35.14-ver1.5 [email protected]#3. I did (but maybe not enough) search around the forum but i might be looking at a wrong place on how to "un-root" the phone back to it's original state. Anyone care to help? Thanks a bunch!!
I'm looking to download stock rom XXKI3. I need to return my I900 to the store and want to restore the firmware I had when I bought the phone. I am currently using MIUI v4 and don't want any hassle from the staff.
I am living in China and have only had the phone for 2 days. I noticed that the screen has screen burn/ ghosting, It's not very obvious, but after loading a pure blue image I can make out some of the display, and it looks like either a Chinese/ Korean keypad. I would assume then that the phone I got has been used before me, either by someone, or on display, which I am obviously not happy about.
I don't want to give them any reason to not give me a replacement phone.
All the links online I can find are dead, if anyone has it or knows where I can get it, I would much appreciate the help.
I have the files for Odin. Let me upload them and I'll post you a link!

This one? http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=8&view=447
Thanks for all the replies! Oh man do I feel dumb, I posted the wrong code, it's actually ZSKI3 I need.
XXKI3 doesn't have the Chinese language, which they will no doubt try to switch the phone to when I take it in.
I can't find ZSKI3 on sammobile or anywhere on google. The link on the firmwares page on this site is dead too.
Any ideas?
Found it!

many thanks! i need that rom too
i upgraded my phone to 4.0.3 accidentially (kies prompted me to upgrade when i connect my phone to the PC, and i clicked the button to confirm the action wrongly)
since then, my phone sucks, hangs and crashed with some apps, even after i reset to the factory setting (cleared all the data!!!!)
now, my phone is likely to hang up, while i installed apk files (but it is ok to install app directly from google play) (the apk files are ok in the previous ver of andriod and should be the same as the one if i download them from google play directly)
so i decided to revert back to 2.3.5..................and would not upgrade the firmware again..................
Trying to flash to stock HK firmware since encountering a boot loop
I wasn't sure if I was in the right thread so I originally posted on here:
[Q] How to flash the original ROM?(HK official ROM)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=31073452#post31073452
Hope everyone doesn't mind me posting some questions on this thread too.
I am trying to figure out which official stock firmware for Hong Kong I should use (ZSKF1, ZSKF4, ZSKG2, ZSKI3) since I can no longer access settings on my phone due to the boot loop error. I am basically guessing since I cannot remember the exact kernel version or any other info. I am trying my best to make more educated guesses. I know I got my phone from Hong Kong in Nov 2011.
First I am trying to follow the instructions on this thread for the boot loop error. It requires me to find the stock rom I want to flash to. So I am working on finding the correct stock rom.
[READ THIS] Got a Boot Loop? Don't post a New Thread!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1108499
I was getting lost in the list of them on here. But I narrowed it the the 4 I picked out with code ZS for China, Hong Kong.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
For booshman:
The file you gave on this thread, it is for ZSKI3 but how do I know if it is right for my case? Will it restore to GT-i9100 Android 2.3.5 Gingerbread for Hong Kong stock rom? I had no custom roms and was running from the stock all the way through and I still encountered the boot loop error.
I already tried going on samfirmware but they only had Android ver 4 for Hong Kong. I want to restore my phone to exactly what I had before which is Gingerbread and start anew from there.
If anyone can give me some insights, that will be greatly appreciated!
Thank you all!!
I figured it all out! I got out of boot loop! No need for response. Sorry for spamming everyone...
Just wanted to say:
This page helped me to do it. I gave appropriate thanks!

I've been searching google for a week along with this forum and even called leader international today. They emailed me 2 4.0 updates with my model being out of warranty. it's brand new i've never really used it.

Now it's BRICKED I need a standard 2.3 android rom for this tablet... Please HELP

Update!!!!!!!!! I have fixed it. I tried flashing the first rom twice and it wouldn't flash, I then flashed the second rom and it was still bricked. I said screw it, i'll try the first one ONE MORE TIME...... IT FIXED IT. If anyone wants the rom I will email it to you. BUT DO NOT ASK ME FOR THESE ROMS IF YOUR TABLET IS WORKING AND YOU JUST WANT AN UPGRADE... That's how I bricked mine to start with.
btw, it's running 4.0
Email is [email protected] if you need the roms.

http://hugefiles.net/kyypdhg855a0
hugefiles.net/kyypdhg855a0

Hello,
Thank you very much for sharing the file. The links seem to be dead, as in they're no longer uploaded/accessible from the URL you have provided. Do you think you could share the file again? I apologise for any inconvenience.
Or could anyone share the stock ROM from the P791 tablet from ASDA?
Thank you and kind regards.

i havent got the file anymore - i originally got it from the settings in the tablet,
settings - about tablets - system updates
it just downloaded the file via browser to downloads folder as i recall, and you copy it out before it detects the update file is there.
it downloads from ftp://mypolaroidtablet.com but i cant access that from my laptop without a username and password
i dont recall it asking when accessing from the tablet, which i cant do as its been dropped a couple of times and now the screen is cracked and the wifi doesnt work

Hey there, I just got one of these p791 Polaroid tablets for Christmas this year.
When I try to do the usual update method (Settings > About tablet > System update) it locks up and I have to force it to stop. So no auto-updates for me.
Currently stuck on KK 4.4.2
Is there anyone or anyway to get this ROM so I can manually install it, or anyone who's had this problem and fixed it so I can just update my tablet.

Hopefully you already got it sorted.. However, if not then you may want to know the tools usually used to fix this device are:
RKBatchTool,
AndroidTool,
Or PhoenixSuit (although I've not managed to get this one to work)
You can do a quick Google search on any of the tools mentioned above as well as find information on the installation process including the flashing of the P791 device.
I wasn't able to get mine turned on again but you may be able to. (Years ago I used these tools and got it working again, but can't seem to do it this time, maybe mines just had it. I think these are the only options for us though and I remember the annoying task of trying to figure it out as the specific device you're talking about, the one from Asda isn't hardly mentioned nor is it even supported by manufactures anymore so now I have an account on here I thought I'd just post this reply ?

Since writing my reply to your OP I decided to give it another go and was successful.
I used AndroidTools to complete the process of flashing the stock update.img via the "Firmware" tab. If you need any help doing it feel free to reply to this post!

hey, ive been looking for help for a very long time now trying to get my tablet working, got in touch with the support team at Polaroid and they told me i was practically on my own because they dont have a copy of the firmware but now ive found this thread im hoping that you could help me, i dont really know how to get to firmware from the link in this thread to work on my tablet, ive tried loading it from an sd card on the tablet but it fails, i know im probably doing it wrong so some help would be appreciated.
thanks in advance
