[Q] Updating the Modem

Just a quick question.
I'm gonna update my modem to EB13 from EC05 via Odin, but I just want to make sure what I'm doing is right.
All I do is open odin, put the EB13_modem_update.zip in the Phone slot, put the phone in download mode, and click start right?

Heres a picture (the phones not plugged in yet)

Someone please respond.

That's correct if it's the right file. I can't see it, in a bar. Looks good though

Here... I uploaded the EB13 modem for you... download it from here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/20210101/EB13_modem.tar
Just stick that in the pda slot, check it, and only have auto reboot checked and you'll be good to go. Make sure your phone is in download mode.

Thanks, it worked!
It scared me at first because it failed the first time and I removed the phone (It wouldn't boot at all!) But I was able to put it in download mode and it worked the second time. Thanks so much!

Oh and my youtube app disappeared...anyone have a download link?

No problem! Glad you got it going.

Also my google search keeps asking me to agree and it won't go away...
I tried clearing data already.
Yeah...youtube's not working.
Never mind, I got it!
I just killed some of the services and it works.

As sauravrockable said, try factoryreset your phone. And again, 4. Where did you download the Xperia theme you were talking about?
Note. Playing around with roms, mods and themes can be "dangerous", at least when you are a noob. Please be more careful next time.
EDIT: Do you know how you factory reset your phone?

We are not specific and are not spoon feeding you because this not done that way. You HAVE to spend time and learn what is what. The answers you need and the help you need are already here. If you're expecting download links and screenshots you shouldn't be modifying your phone. The whole point of this community is to learn and share the knowledge - not spoon feed.
Go to the TWRP thread, read up and download the tar that you need to flash through odin. Look for the MJ5 bootloader (hint: look up Wanam's ROM thread, that's one of the many places). After you got these two, boot to TWRP and flash the ROM.
Finally, as long as your phone gets into download mode, it's not bricked. And you got to do something incredibly foolish to make it not boot into bootloader. That said, it would be prudent to learn and act rather than blindly execute what you read - I said the same thing in not so many words in my reply to you in the DN3 ROM thread.

If you have used ODIN before to flash anything using this computer you are trying with now, you don't need to reinstall the drivers.

[Q] Wifi won't start on unlocked and rooted phone

He everybody. I have a T-mobile Note 2 which I brought with me to New Zealand. T-Mobile gave me an unlock code which worked and most things are fine except that wifi wont work at all. It says it is starting then turns off. I also notice it seems to be trying to turn itself on pretty constantly even though I have it turned off. I tried various wifi repair apps after rooting the phone and they all hang on deleting saved networks.
Wifi tether log shows that starting wifi (cmd) failed.
Any advice on what I can try please to get wifi going?

Since you are rooted. Are you stock rooted or did you flash a rom?
Are you on 4.3 or 4.1.2?
Is the Bootloader updated?

Double0EK said:

Easiest way: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.vndnguyen.phoneinfo&hl=en
Check the screenshots.

bootloader is t889uvbmd1

How about the android version ?
You can verify it by going to Settings -> About Device -> Android version.
If your phone is on 4.1.2 then you can upgrade to 4.3.
Also, let us know if wifi stopped working right after rooting and how did you root it ?
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda app-developers app

Sorry android is 4.1.2
Wifi hasn't worked since I got the phone to New Zealand. I rooted it using saferoot in the hope it would fix wifi. It is a USA phone and I am now in NZ.
Everything else is perfect.

You can try flashing the T889UVBMD1 Kernel and see if it fixes the issue, I checked development forum and the link for this kernel is not working.
You have few options here:
a) If you want to stay on 4.1.2 you can flash Mr Robinsons root 66 rom from here
or
b) If you wish to update you can flash this 4.3 stock ROM.
In either case you wont loose any data.
To flash you will have to:
1) Download the file and then extract it. The extracted file will have a tar.md5 extension.
2) Boot your phone in-to download mode by i) turn off phone ii) hold volume down + home then press power iii) on prompt press volume up.
3) Start Odin on your pc(windows) with admin rights, (right click and run as admin).
4) Now connect your phone to PC, on ODIN if you see a message that phone is connected.(ID:COM tab on left will turn blue)
5) Click PDA tab and browse the extracted file, it will take couple of minute to verify md5 and then once it's done
6) Auto reboot and F.Reset time options are checked by default, leave them as it is and make sure no other options are selected/checked on ODIN.
7) Click Start
8) Let ODIN do it's job, phone will reboot automatically.
Done.

Thank you so much. One question do I download the rom to my phone or my PC in the instructions below?

The icon goes a pale green for a few seconds then turns itself off.
If I turn wifi on through settings the button moves to on but stays grey and then flicks itself back to off after about 5 seconds.

Yes it is exactly the same as when I first turned it on in NZ. Pale green then back to off. Bluetooth does the same but all other functions are fine. data works and 4G is fine

I am not very techy can someone suggest a safe kernel to try?

Honestly I would look it up in the thread specifically for your device. Just find a kernel matching all specifications to your device and try it out. Usually pretty easy if you follow the steps provided in the op of the kernel.

I am also simply assuming it's the kernel. Relating to similar issue I have had. It seems to be at least in my case a conflicting issue between the kernel and rom. I'm having the issue again on my HTC one. Stock kernel is fine. Using a custom kernel everything but the wifi works. Seems to always come back to a kernel to rom conflict.

I have found the plasma kernel but there are no instructions on how to replace the kernel. Is there a how to guide somewhere please?

You can try flashing the T889UVBMD1 Kernel and see if it fixes the issue, I checked development forum and the link for this kernel is not working.
You have few options here:
a) If you want to stay on 4.1.2 you can flash Mr Robinsons root 66 rom from here
or
b) If you wish to update you can flash this 4.3 stock ROM.
In either case you wont loose any data.
To flash you will have to:
1) Download the file and then extract it. The extracted file will have a tar.md5 extension.
2) Boot your phone in-to download mode by i) turn off phone ii) hold volume down + home then press power iii) on prompt press volume up.
3) Start Odin on your pc(windows) with admin rights, (right click and run as admin).
4) Now connect your phone to PC, on ODIN if you see a message that phone is connected.(ID:COM tab on left will turn blue)
5) Click PDA tab and browse the extracted file, it will take couple of minute to verify md5 and then once it's done
6) Auto reboot and F.Reset time options are checked by default, leave them as it is and make sure no other options are selected/checked on ODIN.
7) Click Start
8) Let ODIN do it's job, phone will reboot automatically.
Done.

You're not going to get much better then that ^^^. If you still are uncomfortable with a step by step maybe a walk through video. Possibly try YouTube just type it in exactly as you are asking. All kernels through Odin flash the same. As long as the video is for your phone and the file format you're good.

Samsung tab 3 10.1 GT- 5210 stock firmware issue

Hi all,
I’m having an issue with a Samsung tab 3 10.1 and done help would be much appreciated. I have tried to follow done guides but haven’t been that successful.
I have purchased a tab that is stuck in mgm/retail mode and the seller is no longer getting back to me to return it.
I believe that is a way to use Odin and flash the device in download mode.
The problem I have is finding the file to do this with? A point in the right direction would be much appreciated

What are you trying to do? Are you using stock ROM from https://www.sammobile.com/samsung/galaxy-tab3/firmware/#GT-P5210 page ?

Here is some stock http://www.mediafire.com/download/9mbmw4gtrfli6ef/STOCK-GTP5210-4.2.2.zip

Thanks for the reply, i've downloaded what you have sent over but i can't find a .tar file to send to the device via odin.
I'm trying to reflash the device to factory settings.

This ROM is in a format supported by TWRP.
So you could in short:
- install TWRP using ODIN https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...covery-twrp-3-x-samsung-galaxy-tab-3-t3340938
- install ROM using TWRP, you can install stock or custom ROM
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...om-100-stock-4-4-2-kitkat-p5210-wifi-t2848279
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-3/development-10/rom-lineageos-14-1-t3587761
I found another site with roms https://samsung-firmware.org/pl/model/GT-P5210/, maybe here will be the ROM in format supported by ODIN.
Did reflash the device to factory settings help?

Ok so i've tried to install TWRP using Odin - No Joy
So now i'm unsure where to go from here as i cant put TWRP on the device to install the ROM?
No the flash did not reset to factory settings, this is the trouble im having no rom will flash the device, feel like banging my head against a wall.

Which guide did you follow? I am asking becouse it should work, strange.
Steps in short:
- Enter download mode Volume Down + Home button + Power button.
- Start ODIN
- Flash TWRP
- Enter recovery mode Volume Up + Home button + Power button
- Flash ROM from zip
Or with ROM in ODIN compatible format:
- Enter download mode Volume Down + Home button + Power button.
- Start ODIN
- Flash ROM

Ok so I have done exactly that with two stock rims and I’m still having the same issue. Don’t know where to go from here. Could I root it, would that work?
