ORIGINAL NON ROOTED Galaxy Tab stock ROM for Verizon.

I know Stock unrooted Files are hard to come by for the Verizon GT. They need to be flashed using Heimdall. When your phone reboots power it down as soon as you see The Samsung boot screen. Go into restore ( up volume + power button ) release the power after 3 seconds and.continue holding up until it goes into restore. Then wipe data and cache and reboot. And there you go. Pre updated unrooted stock I800!
And here are the STOCK UNROOTED Files. ENJOY!

And for those that needed the Modem file as well...heres the link for it.
Link removed for the time being. Will post a working one ASAP

Please search and post in the proper places.

Wouldn't happen to have any Verizon modem bin files (for Odin or Heimdall) I tried flashing the Sprint Gingerbread to my VGT and I'm stuck on Sprints modem, cant get rid of it and none of the Verizon builds are working with it.

Chris not to pee on your party...but those files in that thread are not what the op is referring to. If you use the files from the link you gave they are original files, but you will be rooted. So while it may be in the wrong section, the files this poster is offering is a rare commodity.

jtipton79,
I need those files badly, please be kind and share if possible. Thanks in advance!

I messaged him and have not heard back yet. I am looking forward to those files also ...If you get them to me I will post a link on my web server.

Ok what files is it you are looking for? Also I dont have a server so I can drop these unrooted stock files into dropbox if needed. Thanks

Drop them and I put up a sever link. I am looking for the stock unrooted VZM Gtab files heimdall. I assume they are EC02?
Thanks

Unlee someone has a server?
If someone has a server i could use to host these files that would be cool too...Instead of using dropbox and having to invite for the download....

Update #1
Files will up for download shortly. Uploading now!

It would be more than great if you could also provide boot and Sbl files, as secondary bootloader is responsible for modem initialization. Thanks in advance!

Pity to know, but modem file is corrupted just like the other ones we had around, it just contains FF's if you open it in HEX editor. So if you still have 3G, don't flash it.

Do you have any success so far?

[KERNEL] T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II Stock Kernel // UVKID

T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II Stock Kernel // UVKID
Finally guys we have root access and with root access that brings goodies, this is one of those goodies.
Explanation
What we have here is a stock boot.img (imagine that Samsung changing things up again on us) pulled from a rooted (via recovery) T-Mobile SGH-T989 (Samsung Galaxy S II).
With this you can recover your phone using ODIN, in the case of a brick or just to return to a factory state.
Initramfs for Developers
I have extracted the boot.img and posted it up for all developers on my github.
Code:
https://github.com/bubby323/stock-initramfs-UVKID-galaxysII-tmo
Downloads
Also to restore you're phone I have a nice little tar file that will take care of the job for you that you can grab from here.

How to Flash
We are going to be using Odin in this explanation to flash the stock kernel to your phone.
Downloads
First you are going to want to start by downloading all the needed files onto your computer and then place them onto your Desktop.
Samsung Kies
Odin3-v1.85.zip
SGH-T989-Stock-UVKID.tar
Process
Once you have everything downloaded and on your desktop, you are going to want to first install kies.
After this is done you should restart your computer for proper driver installation.
Next, extract Odin to a new folder on your Desktop. Leave the tar in the form it is.
Now, open up Odin by double clicking the .exe in the folder you extracted it to.
The most important step is now, you need to put your device into Download/ODIN mode so your computer will recognize it and be able to flash to it. To do this simply turn your phone off completely (or pull the battery). Then you are going to want to use the following button combination to force your device into download mode:
Hold the volume up/down and power button all at the same time.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now ODIN should have recognized your device ( it may take a while for the drivers to complete installation so don't panic the first time).
Lastly, we want to click on the PDA button and then search for the SGH-T989-Stock-UVKID.tar we download earlier and placed on the Desktop.
If all of the above has taken place you are free to hit the Start button.
Done!
If all has gone well at this point the flash should be proven successful and your phone should reboot like normal.
If so, please feel pressured to give yourself a pat on the back, that was tough!

This is not a method for obtaining root. It's reference material, and also a way to return yourself to stock if you flash a hosed kernel.
If you already have a stock kernel, I am 90% certain that this will do absolutely nothing.
But having a "return to stock kernel" path AND a fresh initramfs are major milestones for development.
You're not at risk, you should be perfectly fine using slayher's method, but if you screw up, this will be a component of your path back to a working phone. But it's only useful if you screw up, you're a kernel developer who wants a clean initramfs for reference, or need to return your phone back to 100% stock. However, if you're in one of those three categories, this is a critical milestone.

This will put stock recovery back on also right?

[Q] Files from a ROM around?
I've asked this before and I should probably shut it, but if anyone has files from a ROM that works with ODIN or a ZIP file (CWM compat or not), root or unrooted (doesn't matter), or a NANDROID backup, could you let me know?
I got stock kernel up, CWM recov, but broke my actual OS- since it broke, I done flashed /data /emmc /system to empty out my stomach. I really just need everything from / (minus your personal data, of course) - can get it to work with a recovery by myself (and can post that up if I do).
Thanks in advance, bruvs.

Hello I tried to flash my radio following this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1825112. There were no errors or anything in cmw and after i rebooted my s3, i ended up with this. Anybody got this before or found a way to fix it?

Try redownloading, on wifi if possible, then reflash again. I think I saw someone else have that happen and it was a corrupted download.
Read thru the thread again if you want to double check, couldn't hurt!
Check the md5 sum first.

exactly this, re-download it and and flash again.

i did try to download it throught wifi and reflash it like it says in the thread but still no luck. I just read that someone tried to flash a wind mobile version and mine is mobilicity. Both are T999V version, i guess thats where the problem is, flashing a T999 radio for T999V. Does anyone know where I can find a mobilicity T999V stock radio or anyway i can get back my old radio. I did flash the second zip which supposebly makes a copy of your old radio before I flashed the radio. Does anyone know where this backup is located or where i can a mobilicity t999v radio?

Appears to me that he wrote the backup into the script that flashes the new one! Awesome!!!!
Check in /data/media
Looks like it may have saved your original as modem.backup when you flashed the new radio. If its there then flash the restore zip and hopefully you will be back to your original.
Even if its not there, flash the restore, always possible I read it wrong.

did you flash that radio as well? i check sdcard/data and all i see is com.keramidas.titanback up, no media folder. i checked sdcard/android/data and there bunch of com. folders no media and i checked sdcard/media and there is only audio and music folder

Check /data/media
Not /sdcard/data/media
Should be on data partition, not sdcard.
If the flash was successful, I believe it should be there.

If you are running pure stock, you may need a 3rd party file explorer like Root Explorer. Not totally sure but if all you see is extsdcard and sdcard this is possibly the case.

No worries. I added to my last post about that. Search for root file explorer in market and you should be able to find a free one there. I use Root Explorer which is paid, but check the one by jrummy. I think his free one may do what you need.
Not sure about the backup on your sdcard. Can you tell if the date created matches close to when you flashed?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app

ok so i downloaded the 1 by jrummy and i open data rwxrwx--x than i open media and its basically a copy of my internal sdcard and i checked the time of the backup and it says 10:51pm (original backup was this around 3:00) so im guessing i screwed myself over by rewriting over my original modem backup.

One more thing I just thought of and it may cause more headaches...
Did you try to flash the radio more than once? If so it may have overwritten the original modem.backup.
If that is the case you may need to get someone else with a T999V to backup theirs for you. The guy you mentioned who had the same problem may have one already. Might want to PM him. Also you could post in the original thread and someone else may have it already. Also I think there is a thread on here dedicated to Canadian users which I think is for the T999V.
If you find one copy it into /data/media making sure to change the permissions to match the previous backup you overwrite. Then flash the restore.
If you only flashed it once then you shouldn't have to worry about all that.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app

yes i think we're both right, i did overwrite the original backup. i shouldnt have panicked and waited a couple of hours and everything would be back to normal now. I did pm 2 people who messed up like me and 1 of them was able revert back to original modem but that person was using wind mobile s3. I bought the my s3 from mobilicity, unlocked it and inserted my wind sim card but my modem would mobilicity t999v modem right? Would wind modem work for me? they are both t999v versions. and i dont know how to changethe permissions to match previous backup.
i appreciate your help man, you helped me clear up some things. thank you

Damn, I was hoping that didn't happen! Sorry for the bad advice in the beginning of this thread. Had no idea that it would overwrite the backup....
I think your next best step would be to post in the original thread and/or pm a request for the modem.backup file for your version.
I know it sucks going thru all this but all is not lost. If I can help anymore let me know, but I think you just need someone with that file now.

Lol, everytime I post, I hit refresh and you've already responded with what I was trying to say.
Ill post a request in the thread for you. I'm thinking the Wind and Mobilicity are likely compatible both being T999V, but I don't want to go on assumptions any more on this one! Ill ask about that over there as well.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app

dont feel bad dude! i actually overwrote my backup waaay before you started helping me out lol so its not your fault at all lol but im confused if you are replying to my last post or my 2nd last post lol. still wondering if all T999V models (wind, mobilicity, videotron) have the same modem or I have to find mobilicity modem to go back to normal.

ok so i found a site that lets you download the latest firmware for t999v and i checked all 3 firmwares (videotron wind and mobilicity) and they are all
T999VVLALE6 so i am guessing they are all compatible. the only thing confuses me is the dude that tried it with wind, he posted a link of his modem after flash and this is the file name t999vvlle6_modem...the only thing thats missing is the letter "a" lol

I just posted the request. Also asked if any other unforseen problems could occur if you do try flashing the Wind version. I don't think it would change the situation at this point, but I also didn't realize this could happen to begin with!
I think u would be safe, but can't guarantee it!
Problem with that missing "a" is that it could be a typo when he renamed the backup, or it could be different software...if he's still online could you pm him to verify?

Same thing happened to me (Couldnt boot into recovery and needed a stock ROM).
This is where I posted, you can find some information there: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2260948
Like "freakboy13" said, "If you can get into DL mode, you're golden." Don't worry it just takes patience and you have to keep trying.
1. First, you want to find a stock ROM only (normally 836MB zipped and around 1.42 unzipped)
2. Make sure you're using a domestic ROM, not International and make sure you're using your model number. Do you have AT&T? if so search for - SAMSUNG SGH-I317. If not search for the one you need.
3.Flash it using Odin. I used Odin 1.87 I believe, I didn't have to use 3.07.
4. Let us know how it goes. I had to do it twice and it worked so be patient.

Root injected rom from link below since you mentioned you can get to dload mode. Choose correct rom that is for your phone model / carrier.

No...you are "NOT" bricked.....you have a software brick only.
These fine members above me have you going in the right direction.
Make sure you thank them once you get the device rolling again....g

Heres my guide.
If you can get into dl mode "you are golden" :thumbup:
This is a tutorial on how to use the fastest and simplest way back to stock aka Emegrency Firmware Recovery.
This is accessed via kies.
You should do a bit more reading before attempting to use odin. Using odin is not for newbs. Dont just dl apps snd flash stuff with out understanding whats going on. Mobile odin goomanager is great, just know whats actaully going on.
What you a should do is go back to stock via efr. Heres my guide with pics.

Same thing happened to me (Couldnt boot into recovery and needed a stock ROM).
This is where I posted, you can find some information there: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2260948
Like "freakboy13" said, "If you can get into DL mode, you're golden." Don't worry it just takes patience and you have to keep trying.
1. First, you want to find a stock ROM only (normally 836MB zipped and around 1.42 unzipped)
2. Make sure you're using a domestic ROM, not International and make sure you're using your model number. Do you have AT&T? if so search for - SAMSUNG SGH-I317. If not search for the one you need.
3.Flash it using Odin. I used Odin 1.87 I believe, I didn't have to use 3.07.
4. Let us know how it goes. I had to do it twice and it worked so be patient.

Great news !
Now pound that thanks button for those guys that fixed you up....g

[ROM][STOCK][PORT][*ODIN*] Stock rooted TW 4.4.2 (ported from sprint SGS3)

This, for the most part, is not my work. What this is is @DocHoliday77 's port of the sprint SGS3 4.4.2 ROM, which I have repackaged into an Odin .tar.md5; the point being for those who would rather flash this via ODIN instead of twrp/cwm.
You can thank DocHoliday77 for his hard work here, all I did was edit the build.prop and repackage with multiboot. Download link below.
Included in this .tar.md5:
-System image, with build.prop edited to accurately reflect our device.
-multiboot 2.12 recovery image (for those who don't know, it's TWRP 2.7 with the added ability to boot other ROMs in a sandbox)
-KT747 boot image, which is included with the original port flashable zip.
YOU MUST HAVE AN OFFICIAL 4.3 BOOTLOADER / MODEM INSTALLED. THERE IS NO WAY TO CIRCUMVENT THIS.
Download: Stock rooted 4.4.2 TW

Nice
First too. Didn't even realize

You're all quite welcome. I may reupload sometime soon with boot loader / modem included to make it easier for people. (There would be two different versions, one with the at&t modem and one with the bell/telus/rogers one)

Can anyone confirm whether or not this is a daily driver?

Aside from not being able to send MMS with WiFi on (SMS works fine) this should be fully capable of being a DD.

Use Handcent messaging app, set it as default and mms while Wi-Fi is active will work

Confirmed, this is not working at the moment. The system image is broken and I'm not sure why, bear with me

Not sure as I cant read your language, sorry. But one part says its LI1 and another says ND3. First, the bootloader/firmware version MUST be a 4.3 build.
Second, what is the ND3? Is that some sort of test build? Or did I miss something somewhere?

It does yeah, but I tried it without the md5sum and it failed as well, just after nand write start. On the download here the md5 check fails because the binary is supposedly invalid.
The system image was made by running mkfs-yaffs2-x86 on the system folder from the original port zip, running unyaffs does unpack it, but something is definitely not right with this image, I tried using unpack-ext4 on windows which usually works on odin system images but it didn't on this one.

Making an odin flashable isnt a straight forward process for the S3 it seems. MrRobinson is the only one I know of off hand that has an effective process to do so. He only gives clues to his process in his op. Ive done one a long time ago, but I think what I had to do was take tar the system.img dumped directly from the device using the dd command.
If I remember right, it had to be done immediately after flashing, been too long though so I cant remember for certain.
So if I am recalling it correctly, flash the rom, factory reset, then while still in recovery, using either adb or the built in terminal emulator, use dd to dump the image to your sd card.

It's a Stock 4.3 bulid from Telcel, Mexico, in SamMobile says this:
In english:

Ok, thanks for the clarification on that. Once its confirmed working, you should be able to flash it just fine. If that baseband is not 4.3 though, you will likely have to update it as well.
For now though, you can always just flash the rom this was built from. Should get you exactly the same thing, only the method is different.
