Use this app: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...p-galaxsim-unlock-1-02-jb-compatible-t1846451
But in future please attempt to search XDA as it is easily located on the forum however I can understand that you just want a quick answer.

¿Official ICS 4.04 for GT 10.1v?

I have read about an OTA for our 10.1v with ICS 4.04?
http://www.htcmania.com/showthread.php?p=5152857
Does anyone knows anything about this?
Enviado desde mi GT-P7100 usando Tapatalk 2
no idea but i would love to hear future confirmations on this!
I sent an email in Spanish to the guy to know if his camera is working...if so, we got a winner. Does someone know how to extract a rom ?
Also, did you notice the 3.xx kernel ?
yeah the 3.xx kernel is what caught my eye in the first place....although this could be just a huge fake and someone just wanting to have some attention.
It should be possible to make a tutorial for the guy to make a flashable .zip file so that we could at least get this rom via CWM if it is indeed what he claims it is.
If this really is an OTA update everything should be working including the camera.
What I am really finding weird though is that he was the only one reporting this OTA update, there are no websites reporting it and there seems to be a big lack of information. I feel like contacting Samsung and asking directly.

fastboot boot recovery.img

I spoke to this one several months ago. When we were all waiting for 3.2.1 update, he already got it, and he was the first one I know to report he got the update via OTA. Many people didn't believe him, because all of us got it a long time after, but, there it was, finally the upgrade came... so, what I hope is that the same will happen this time, let's be faithfull. I have already asked him about the camera, which happens to be the great topic!!
Hi friends. I'm Raindog- from Htcmania.
I will be happy to help. But I'm not root (nor want)
Do you know any way to extract what you need without root?
Tnx for joining us!!

Heyy um do you have fastboot access ?? then maybe you could fastboot recovery.img and backup through CWM.
So Raka answered me over at htcmania and is willing to extract if I told him how to...so...how to ? :laugh:
I'm going to read the board instructions again and try to guide him in my best Spanish !
Did you notice the camera is working ??
PS : Raindog...are you Raka ?

So Raindog, do you know how to start ? I'm willing to go step by step with you...I think we all are...as what you got in your hands is like the holy grail for us ! :angel:
Few questions :
- Do you confirmed your bootloader is unlocked (when booting the tablet do you see an unlock icon on the "Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1v" logo ?)
- Do you have root access ?
- Is fastboot working ?
If someone is already working with you on this, tell me, I'll let you guys work it out. If not, and if you don't how to respond to the last two questions, we'll start working on that...
Thanks !

Camera working
Right now, it doesn't matter if it's final, o beta, or anything else. Raka/Raindog has already shown me on htcmania that the camera is working, so, ladies and gentleman..., the holy grail has been found!! And who could have ever thought that 7100 owners were going to have ICS working before even 7500 ones...
I can't wait to seeing ICS fully working on my old, forgotten and understimated tab...:fingers-crossed:

Samsung Galaxy SII (M250K) - Turn it European..?

Hello,
First of all, thank you for the time you'll spend helping me figure this out.
I have an Samsung Galaxy S2, korean version, which only have English and Korean languages, besides all the specific things that come with it's particular ROM. It has version 4.0.4 at the moment.
What I'd like to know if it is possible for me to 'turn' it into an European version, installing a ROM 'designed' for that same model. If so, I'd appreciate if someone could guide me (or just point the right direction..) in how to do it, since I'm kinda new at the Android world. More of a iOS user until now
Any information needed about the phone, please let me know.
Thank you.
Best Regards,
Júlio

Welcome to the android world,
Have a look here, here and here. These might be useful to you.
Also use the Search option effectively. That is one powerful tool in XDA
Before you flash anything be sure of what you are doing. Good luck :good:
You may not believe it, but I've already red one or two (not sure now) of that topics, besides another good amount of pages all over the web. Anyway, I'll take a(nother) good look again at the links you posted, and let you know something when done.
Maybe they have all the information I'm looking for
Thank you for your help.

Hey,
I'm having some troubles regarding the wifi signal on my GS2. Does anyone know if this is normal?
At work, I'm only two meters away from the router, and I NEVER get full signal. Instead, while working on wifi (like adding an e-mail account), it keeps losing signal and failing.
Thank you
Cheers

That is absolutely ridiculous.
Look children, this is what happens when you cant be bothered to search, you go and pay some idiot to do what you should have done in first place, ie search, read, learn and do.
If you had search you would have found many topics that recommend various unlocking apps from play store or on xda and unlocked you device in seconds.
Thread Closed:
Questions like this have been asked before and can be answered by doing a little research (searching).
If you plan to advance in your knowledge of android you are going to have to learn and not just expect help on already answered questions.

Sounds like the unlock you used wasn't a permanent one, find your carrier Rom and flash that with Odin.....then get a proper/permanent unlock code

No, you can't use Odin to flash Slim. But you know what you can use XDA for? Reading. I'm sorry, but spoonfeeding is against XDA rules. Read up & flash slimbean. First you want a custom recovery & root, from there all you have to do is download the ROM and flash it according to the instructions in Slim OP. I'm not saying any more.

No one said you have to be a developer or expert. I'm certainly not. I only know what I know because I read things before attempting them. This isn't meant to be harsh, but right now your phone is in danger. Messing with your phone when you don't know what you're doing is a sure way to screw things up. So please do some reading. I already told you where to start, you need a custom recovery & root.

Good to hear.
The reason that everything looks small is that it's not standard dpi. Slim has default 182 dpi, stock is 240 dpi. You can change it, go to settings>interface>LCD density. Follow what it says there, the instructions work great there.

then choose what kind of root access you want.

Don't post the same thing over and over. I saw you post it in the slim thread as well.
Reboot will happen if you rotate your phone with auto rotate on, but only seems to occur randomly. Mobile data - mine works fine. Check your apn settings.

Sorry for the repeated post... Problem with my desktop. Anyway problem solved... Flashed the new build by fusionjack, everything is good now. My phone does not reboot anymore and my mobile data works perfectly now...
