That's my big question. I use my phone so rarely for calls, and my phone plan has a way better data plan than anything I can get with this tablet. If I can use my SIM from my phone on the tablet and be able to make/receive calls, I think I would be set in a way I've only dreamt of.
So, does anyone know if this is possible? There doesn't appear to be an app on the stock device for calling. The site http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=specs&id=6176&view=1&c=samsung_sm-p607t_galaxy_note_10.1_2014_lte-a shows this:
Phone Controller: Qualcomm MSM8974A
That just refers to the Snapdragon!
Any thoughts on this?
Am not sure exactly the spec of SM-P607T , but look like its has sim to use data-net only , but not making callsas
p600 is wifi only
p601 is wifi and 3g can be used as phone
p605 is wifi and 4g can be used as phone
p607 is wifi and 4g can't be used as phone

Only way for you to find out would be to flash a 605 rom and see with a voice sim card. You can always odin back to stock if you want to. I have yet to flash a 605 rom because I finally got the stock rom where I want it.

This seems like it could work. I'll do a backup first and try it out--there would be 0% surprise here if tmo just didn't want people replacing phones with tablets.
As I go through TB, I see a com.sec.phone.fake 4.4.2-P607TUVUANE2. I tried to google up the first part of that only to be met with a lot of information about how to enjoy becoming a phone sex operator. I'm wondering if someone with a P605 can look through with TB (or whatever) to see what might be in place when it comes to the phone.
I've been on international 3G G-Tabs with phone features for three years. In that time, no U.S. carrier's Samsung tablet has ever supported phone features. Also in that time, I've never seen anyone successfully add phone features to a U.S. tablet through modding or use an international ROM on a U.S. tablet that didn't bork the radio. So I'd make sure you T-Mobile folks have tested back-ups before you flash a P-605 ROM. The P-605M does support U.S. LTE bands and I'll probably get one the next time I'm in Latin America to use on AT&T. If you're going to try and flash a ROM on your P-607 you're probably better off using the P-605M's ( http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=SM-P605M ) since some of the bands your h/w supports are there. The SM-P605 radio you're about to flash doesn't support the 700MHz LTE band.
P-605
P-605M
P607T should be able to make calls... no?
I believe the hardware is identical to the P605M which can make phone calls.
I think the phone calling feature is just "missing" at the software level (but that's just my noob hunch.)
Anyway, my technical abilities are not at a level where I can create custom roms so I need some help:
I'd like to flash the COO 4.4.2 P605M firmware to my P607T.
naturally, I'd also need a way firmware to get back to the stock 4.4.2 P607T if things don't work.
I'm willing to try it on my device if someone can create the TAR.MD5 files needed
Thoughts?
Or... if someone wouldn't mind sending me a step-by-step on how to create the above? I have both stock firmwares now as well as ODIN and everything ready to go.
*I've tried researching TAR BALLS and creating files... but there no simple step by step instruction anywhere.
Cheers

It's very easy. Use 'Total Commander' for windows by Christian Ghisler (Google it).....Ghisler. com. Download the software. On the website check FAQ+ support then on ' tutorials' for beginners check animated (step by step) tutorials for unpacking and packing files.

Excellent. Thank you.
I successfully tested using this by doing the following:
1. Renamed extension on stock E2 P607T firmware from 'TAR.MD5' to '.TAR' (so it can be opened by Total Commander)
2. Viewed, then deleted the 'aboot.mbn' file from the firmware.
3. Flashed the .TAR file (with missing .mbn) to my device.
4. Succeeded.
Now, when I get home today after work (very soon.) I plan on doing the same thing with the COO E2 P605M firmware... would you see a problem with this? Anything I should know before I go ahead and do it
Cheers~
Thanks again.

My only question is why that particular FW (i.e., is that the latest or most compatible)? I may also do this as well, but I need to make sure I don't lose the US LTE bands (namely 2, 4 and 7).
ETA: I'd also strip out the "Modem.bin" file, too, at least at first.

P605MUBUCNE3_P605MUUBCNE3_P605MUBUCNE2_HOME.tar.md5
and
P607TUVUANE2_P607TTMBANE2_P607TUVUANE2_HOME.tar.md5
are the two files I am playing with.
The closest I got was I removed the SYSTEM.INI file from the 605 and put it inside the 607, replacing it... when I booted I got the 605 system and my device was seen as a P605M.
I was able to dial, but nothing happened. I could successfully send text messages however
Anytime I tried to flash the 605 to the 607 directly something would always fail. I remove the culprit file, then it would fail again on the next files... and so on.
OK, so I went ahead and flashed the "Nordic Countries" SM-P605 FW "P605XXUCNE2/P605XXUCNE2" 4.4.2 ROM . Here's a screenshot of my "About" screen.
I had to remove all the "*.bin" and "*.mbn" files (I suspect it won't overwrite the ones already on the P607T unless you check "Phone Bootloader Update", but I wanted to try first changing the "*.img" files first).
I'd done a full TiBu as well as a TWRP backup of everything first (I was prepared to have had to wipe completely) but it upgraded just fine and everything was OK.
Here's a thread that's got FAR faster downloads than SamMobile (that was a waste of EUR5 ) of the official full stock ROM if you want that as a reference (use the Google Drive link, I was getting 160MBit/sec downloads).
Here's a Google Drive link to my Odin-flashable .tar file that's got all the bootloader/modem files removed.
I don't know what this will do to your Knox (I'd rooted via flashing the TWRP recovery and therefore tripped my Knox 20mins after I'd gotten the tablet) but I suspect that since this is all Samsung-signed code you should be OK.
I see there's a "Phone" app now, but every time I tried to dial any number (even *611) it on either of my data-only SIMs (ATT/T-Mo) it immediately hung up. Normally even on data-only SIMs (like on my OG Note 10.1) you'll be able to complete a call and dial into an error recording, so I suspect that's 'cause we didn't update the "modem.bin" file, so the voice capability isn't in the phone modem anyway. If I feel adventurous, I'll try swapping that out but for now I'll see how this ROM performs first.
BUT- and this might be helpful- we have different options for Mobile Networks->Network mode: "LTE/WCDMA/GSM (auto connect)"/"WCDMA/GSM (auto connect)"/"WCDMA only"/"GSM only". There's another thread wondering if the T-Mo version gets access to 3G/2G networks and/or if T-Mo US has removed those, so it'll be interesting to see what effect this would have when on the road (I wonder if the network status icons change too).
Nice. I too have come to the conclusion that a modem.bin from the P605M is definitely required if we want to have any success... unfortunately I don't know how to make a compatible ZIP install file:

I had extracted the modem.bin file from the 605.tar file, then attempted to flash it via ODIN 'Phone' option.
"Phone Bootloader Update" was not checked
The 'Phone Bootloader Update' cannot be checked unless the file being used has the .MD5 extension... when I use a .TAR only the option is greyed out (and cannot be "checked.")

I'm pretty sure that still has to be done in the "PDA" box (but don't quote me on that).
ADB goodness
Well, I spent the morning and part of the afternoon re-familiarizing myself ADB SHELL, SU, etc.
looking forward to any modem-changing methods that might pop up this weekend
Bear with me; I haven't had the chance to verify if I can flash (via Odin or "dd") different modems without causing any trouble.
... so apparently without some sort of bootloader hack, this isn't going to happen.
I've spent a couple of hours on this, and the Knox-enabled bootloader in 4.3+ ROMs (that the T-Mobile P607T apparently got from day-one; my manufacturing date is May 30th(? I believe)) is protecting the "modem.bin" and "NON-HLOS.bin" flash partitions (at a minimum) and no matter what method I try and use (Odin, which fails as above), neither "dd" nor "flash_image" (with a custom recovery .ZIP I'd made) can write the flash. Although I can read back the flash immediately after flashing and have the MD5 check out (due to backing store of the device from the Linux block cache, most likely), it never actually gets written to the device.
Until we get a workaround for unlocking the flash device (it's kind of like an HTC "S-ON" condition) we won't be able to flash any modems.
Thanks
Thanks for confirming.
I realize the device is new (released early June'14)... do you think this is something we could put a bounty on ?
I am regretting my purchase currently... I should have ebay'd the P605-International (sigh)
Hopefully in time.
Thanks again.
I know it is not the same thing as regular calling but groove ip lite does a pretty good job of voice over ip and its free and it even receives calls to.

So I unlocked and rooted my VZW LTE galaxy nexus a couple months ago, no problems with the process.
I looked into updating from 4.0.2 to 4.0.4 and found this walkthrough for YAKJU IMM76D:
androidadvices.com/update-galaxy-nexus-official-ics-404-firmware-odin/2/
Page 1 goes through checking USB debugging, what to back up first, etc. USB debugging was enabled already.
Page 2 (link above) provides the instructions on what to download, how to run it, etc. I followed the steps there. It went through:

As it stands, if I put the battery in the phone, the screen will turn on and display an icon of a mobile device, two dots, a warning ! triangle, two dots, and a PC monitor.
Pressing the power button "reboots" back to this screen - it just turns off, then turns back on.
Vol up and power does the same thing - does not go into recovery
vol down and power does the same thing
vol up, vol down, and power does the same thing
pulling/replacing the battery does the same thing
I am able to re-run Odin3 v1.85 with the PDA download option checked, specifying that same .tar. It will still go through 95% of the process and end the same way, with "FAIL!" shown in Odin and an almost-complete blue progress bar on the phone below that other error image described above.
So, I *think* this should be salvageable, but I don't know how or what/where to find the file(s) that I should be using to fix this.
THANK YOU for reading and any advice you have, and let me know if anything needs clarification. Screenshot of Odin results attached (seems to not be working... imgbucket link alternative: imgbucket.info/photo/ggnkdlyyu/Odin3_v1_failed.jpg)
Youre phone has nothing to boot from. That's what that means... (Check my signature) use that, reflash stock 4.0.2, try again... And do a backup, first!!
If you're very unlucky, you buggered up the whole memory unit. That means, loss of EVERYTHING...
Oh, and: Stop being a whimp Be a man. Stand above it. Think: "I can do it!!"...
It may sound harsh, at first. But, if you would know, how many times, that has happend, with a Samsung Phone, to me... And if I would have given up, I wouldn't have gotten me a developers phone
So, be strong, (Use my root helper) And tell that phone, who's boss!
Ok, thanks. I'll try that. I don't care that I "lost" everything on the phone as long as I can "fix" the phone. Email, photos, contacts, music, etc - all very easy to replace, or it's just cloud stuff anyways.

Well I haven't made any progress on the phone, but I've done a few things to try familyguy's stuff. I think I have the latest version of that, and the 4.0.2 downloaded via the program, but I get this error message every time I try to flash a stock LTE ROM with it.

Aha! Thank you much for that. Following a few links I think I can fix it just by specifying a suitable firmware, because Odin does actually run the "PDA" flash until the end (progress bar still shows up on my "soft bricked" display and Odin indicates it's copying stuff). So, when I land later tonight I'll download and give this a try:

No luck yet. I can still run the GSM "Phone" flash in Odin until 95% complete when it fails, but all of my attempts at using Google's archived 4.0.2 for CDMA are stopping at about 15%, and I have to R&R battery to restart it. This is as far as I can get:

AHHHH! FIXED!
Things I learned:
- Odin is a Samsung product and needs special samsung-y .tar files to flash the phone. Regular ROM stuff doesn't work. (pardon the ignorance in terminology)
- "mysid" specifies a VzW compatible build for the GNEX
- If you accidentally flash a GSM tar to your VzW phone using Odin, Odin is the only thing that will get you out of your sitch (of the things I could figure out how to try. I didn't try any command line stuff. That's last ditch for me - takes more time for me to learn, and a busy Monday morning at work wasn't helping me)
- I found the resolution here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1426207&page=5 - a factory Odin pair of files for CDMA/VzW, one for PHONE and one for PDA. Saved. My. Bacon.
- The $10 wifi on Alaska Airlines is slow as junk.
- Starting this whilst abroad is a bad idea. (HAHA!)
Regarding the walkthrough I followed that got me in this mess - nowhere that I saw did the author (or readers) specify that the flash I was about to try was GSM only. Maybe I missed that detail, but if not it would make sense to me that someone reading a tutorial on how to flash their phone probably would have NO IDEA that yukjiwhatever is GSM and mysid was for CDMA. That would have been good to read, like, in the first paragraph of the article. Anyways...
I have a working phone and somewhere unicorns are grazing in a field. I hope this helps some other equally poor sap recover his phone.
Hello and thank you for clicking into my topic.
i just bought a used Samsung Galaxy note II online and when i got it and put in my sim, i noticed that there was no service.
i can go WIFI and use apps and stuff but i cannot call or update firmware.
so i tried to reformat it using the system recovery boot.
and still no changes... i did some research in the phone and noticed i have no IMEI and there is absolutely no service in the phone.
tried to take of the battery to see the imei on the phone but the previous owner has taken the sticker off.
i've tried to contact the previous owner but he has deleted his account on the site i bought it from.
is there something i can do.. if i wanted a multimedia pad i would've bought a ipad
please i hope there is some kind and wise soul out there that has a solution on fixing my new phone.
thank you very much!

Which country are you in?You can try flashing official 4.4.2 stock firmware of your region,if it's not available for your country then I recommend NE1 France base from here extract the zip file you'll get a tar.md5 file put your phone into download mode (volume down+home+power) connect it to pc odin v 3.09.Wait for ID port to turn blue with ID COM id shown once successful usb connection established between phone and odin ,check the ap/pda tab in odin and select the above tar.md5 stock rom file you downloaded.Make sure only auto reboot and reset time are checked in ODIN and nothing else.Hit start and sit back and let odin do it's thing.

Okay thank you very much, i will try
can you please give me a step by step instruction on what to do so i dont screw up..
i am very new'b in odin and flashing and would rather avoid bricking it completly
I've tried different ROMs from samfirmware, but the only one I could successfully install via Odin are the Hong Kong N7505ZH versions. Based on the Odin error message it seems this is because of invalid partition sizes. I wanted to re-partition the device, but couldn't find any PIT files for the N7505XX versions. I've seen that it is called HLLTE_EUR_OPEN_4G.pit or HLLTE_EUR_OPEN_4G_hidden30M.pit but didn't find a download link for them anywhere.
Does anyone have these handy, or could someone extract the PIT from their device?
EDIT: it looks like they can now be downloaded from various places on the internet. I have uploaded them here for anyone in need. Tested both, and they don't void your KNOX warranty so the signature in them seems perfectly legit. The zip file contains both HLLTE_EUR_OPEN_4G.pit (for Hong Kong roms) and HLLTE_EUR_OPEN_4G_hidden30M.pit (for European roms). It looks like you'll need the latter one for most of the 4.4.x and the new 5.1.1 ROMs found on samfirmware

I extracted my own pit using heimdall, and compared it to yours. It seems they are exactly the same... Did you manage to update your FW to any official non-HK roms or 4.4.2?
Meanwhile I could update to 4.4.2. hidden.img was of course broken, but creating a new .tar file which only contained recovery.img was enough to remove the firmware upgrade failed flag (and it also passed the new 4.4.2 secure bootloader checks), so I could boot into the new OS and I didn't see any visible errors after the update.
Having a proper install without failures would be better though...

Hello.
I´m a bit newby in this area, but so brave to soft brick my N7505 Phablet
I´ve downloaded your Pit file --> "Can´t write it here" , and via Odin 3.09 I´ve installed a samfirmware Spanish ROM: N7505XXUANB4_N7505PHEANB2_N7505XXUANB4_HOME.tar.md5
My inexperience have make me think that I´could use this ROM with your Pit file and select the Flags: Auto Reboot, Re-Partition, F Reset Time. But at the end of the procedure the Screen have begin flashing with color points :silly:
After 5 mitutes Ihave reset the mobile but it goes right to Download Mode.
There is down the Odim conf window.
Any idea to solve this problem? Now I´m really Frighten, and almost I did not do a backup before.
Thanks in advance.

i'm from india is that file support for my Samsung Note 3 Neo I want to flash Official Firmware !
Just re-partitioned my phone with HLLTE_EUR_OPEN_4G_hidden30M.pit, and so far it works perfectly. I could finally install the latest roms error free from Odin. KNOX warranty status is still okay, so no issues with the signature of the file. File links in first post if anyone needs it.
Note, that the HLLTE_EUR_OPEN_4G_hidden30M.pit file works just fine for the new 5.1.1 Lollipop ROMs as well
Can someome explain what is this Pit file do?

very thanks.
I have a Samsung S4 Mini on the Verizon network (SCH-i435). I restarted my phone this morning and it took a much longer than usual to boot. My screen showed the Verizon logo for about 5-10 minutes and when the phone finally booted I was greeted with the utility to set up the phone (pick language, setup email, etc. etc.). I was confused because I had done this already a few months ago when I bought the phone. I skipped the steps and I was greeted with the stock home screen (all my custom shortcuts and widgets were gone). All my marketplace apps were still installed, but some of them had been reset (had to reconfigure waze, winamp, etc). My best guess is that there was an OTA update or some security patch that reset everything. Finally I got things running again the way I liked them. I was using my phone and suddenly it went dead. I tried to restart it but nothing showed on the screen. Oddly enough the phone just vibrates over and over again, but the screen remains black. No matter what I do I can't boot it. The only way I could stop it from vibrating was to pull out the battery. Is there any hope to recover this phone? Thanks.
Did you try to enter recovery mode?
Yes, I followed the instructions on the manufacturer site. I held down the home button, up volume, and powered the device on. A small bit of text appeared for a split second, it was so fast I couldn't read it. It disappeared and the screen went black and the same vibrate pattern started up again.
I got a video camera and managed to capture the text that was being displayed. Here is a screenshot...
It looks like...
MMC: mmc_read fail
Movinaand Checksum Confirmation Fail
Any hope of fixing this?
I asked for recovery cause it was easier to reset to factory the phone. If that's not working, i don't know if there's hope for it to enter download mode, for manual flashing with odin.
I'm able to get into download mode. Is there a ROM I can flash with? This S4 Mini is the Verizon phone so it is the SCH-i435, I didn't think there were any custom roms I could use with this phone.
Stock rom.
Try http://www.sammobile.com/firmware and see if your firmware is there.
Download this for KitKat: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/31291/I435VRUBNE1_I435VZWBNE1_VZW.zip/
Download this for Jelly Bean (If you had KitKat DO NOT flash the Jelly Bean) :
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/27312/I435VRUAMK5_I435VZWAMK5_VZW.zip/
If you don't know what you had, flash the KitKat one.
Download Odin, Extrect the downloaded file, Press PDA in Odin and insert the extracted tar.md5 file. Make sure your phone is read with the "COM:**" and start. For detailed info, search on google. Good Luck.

I am not sure since this is the first time for me with experience with that phone...
In Odin, make sure Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time check boxes are only two that are selected. DO NOT SELECT ANY OTHER OPTION! Click the AP/PDA button and select that file you downloaded earlier with extension I435VRUBNE1_I435VZWBNE1_VZW.tar.md5 Click the CSC button and select file with CSC in its name. Ignore if there is no such file. Click the PIT button and select the .pit file. Ignore if there is no such file. (You should have this file, do it if you are having that error) Now, once you are ready, hit the START button to begin the flashing process.
If you have any other problems please ask.

Where do I get this file from? I looked at many Odin tutorials but none of them seem to say where I can get it. My phone is dead so if it's something that I need to extract/transfer from my phone then I'm out-of-luck.
I think I'll just contact Verizon and see if my phone is under warranty and if they can send me a new one. It may be easier than combing the web for a tutorial that more fully explains what this PIT file is and why I need it.
In the future should I disable Verizon OTA updates? I suspect a error during the update is what caused this problem in the first place.

The file should be one of the extracted files in the file you have downloaded from my links. If the file is not there, then most probably Verizon modded the phone to not be able to flash via Odin Mode.
The error during the update may have happened because of low battery, making your phone shut down during the update, which is serious.
You can check yourself if your phone is under warranty (excluding the warranty period)
-Just go to download mode and you will see: KNOX WARRANTY VOID: [if it is 0x0, than it you are still under warranty, but if it says 0x1, you are not.]
Yeah, you should go to the place you have bought the phone from, if none of the above steps worked for you.
Good Luck.
I looked at the links you sent me and I searched the samsung site but I could not find that PIT file. I bought it back into my local Verizon store and they gave me a new S4 Mini. The tech didn't say much about why it broke, he only said that it was still under warranty so I was covered. To avoid something like this happening again I wanted to disable updates on my new S4 Mini. I rooted my new phone, purchased Titanium Backup, and Froze SDM. Is there anything else I have to do?

You got the same version of your previous phone?
Yes, that's all they would do for free. They did offer me a Droid Turbo for and extra $100.00 but I really don't like the large phones they're coming out with these days so I declined.
Then you shouldn't get OTA Updates. I don't think that it was needed since the problem you got earlier was because of a faulty firmware from Verizon, which is unlikely or your phone had no battery while your phone was updating.
Hi all, new guy to the forums. After rooting my T211 (4.1.2) via Odin and with TWRP and SuperSU, I started to remove some of the bloatware that Samsung sticks on the tabs. everything was working great until I rebooted one day and then the wifi and bluetooth stopped working. I've flashed the 4.4.2 in preperation to flash a custom rom, but it seems no matter what I do, the wifi and bluetooth issue remain. Can anyone help me with a zip to reinstall the wifi and bluetooth? or an instruction on how to do it? I have the 4.1.2 rom as well as the kitkat rom from italy and a few custom roms. If I knew how to make a flashable zip and which apks and such to use I would be happy to do it myself. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in Advance, James.

Trying it now. I'm a bit of a idiot, when I was trying to flash the stock rom, I forgot to unzip and wondered why I was getting an error...haha. I wanted to try a dirty flash just in case it worked but no kewpie doll. Trying it with the pit file now. fingers crossed.
Ugh...no luck. here's the read out from Odin. Not sure whats going wrong yet. Maybe not the right pit file.

Yea double check the pit file is for your model tablet
LT02.pit, this is the one that keeps getting reccomended in all the posts I've read. Says its for the T210 but it is supposed to be the same?
This is very frustrating thought I had it fixed. Wifi button turned on...bluetooth button turned on...just kept scanning. then both shut off and wont stay on
So after reflash they still do it?
yeah, they still do it. puzzling that it turns on but only scans and has no connection.
Using a file manager with root access, delete the following 2 directories:
/data/misc/bluedroid
/data/misc/wifi
Then, reboot.
Can't promise it will work, but it may.
Cool, gonna give it a try in a bit.
Any luck?
well, yes and no... after loading up root browser, I navigated to /data/misc. I don't have a bluedroid directory. I have a bluetooth and a bluetoothd and I have a wifi and a wireless directory. I deleted the first three and rebooted. I then was able to turn on the wifi and it recognized my router and connected...for about 10 seconds then shut off again and wouldn't turn on again. So, I think we're on the right track but not quite there yet. The fact that it did work even if temporarily was encouraging.
If it were me, I would go to sammobile.com and download the full firmware package for your region and flash it with Odin. That will ensure that you have a matching set of firmware (boot, radio, system, etc.) It will not wipe your data. If it works correctly after that, then you can reinstall your custom recovery and whatever rom you want.
Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk
well, that didn't work either. Still has the same problem. I went into twrp and wiped everything except the external sd card. then with Odin, flashed 4.1.2 rom for UK and wifi will not turn on. Scratching my head now
Any other ideas?
Try using Heimdall with a full firmware package. You'll have to extract the firmware package (change the filename ending with ".tar.md5" to ".tar" and use 7-zip to extract it.
Then open up Heimdall, go to "Utilities -> Download PIT -> Destination File" and pick a location and name for the pit file.
Following this step, go to "Flash -> Options -> PIT" and browse to the pit file.
You will then have to go through the process of adding each partition that you want to flash, browsing to the location of the firmware package, and then flashing it.
I've done this several times, although I have not tried with "Repartition".
You will probably want to flash "SYSTEM", "MODEM", "KERNEL", and "RECOVERY" at a minimum. That said, it would be a *good* idea to use all the files inside the firmware package.
I'd upload packages I've made for my own convenience, but I'm unclear about their legal situation. I think I can get away with PMing links around though. Maybe.
EDIT1: Please post the output from the "Status" box if it fails.
Apologies for not responding sooner. Been busy with work, will try this soon and post results. Thanks
Can't get Heimdall to work. All I get is its not a valid win32 application. I refuse to give up on this, I know it's a software issue so there has to be a way to fix it. ...pulling my hair out though.
