[Q] - Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi i have 1 galaxy tab 3 with official rom... i bought a hardware keyboard and doesnt work any ideas... in my galaxy s2 with custom rom it works also...

Step 1: Edit your message and put a proper title so people know what they click on else everyone will ignore your topic.
Step 2: Put down more details on what you tried and what it does. The more details you put the easier it is to get help. (at least put the brand and model name of the keyboard. any idea how many keyboards there are?).
Step 3: Dont forget you are the one asking for answers, make it as eawsy for people to answer your questions and you'll get helped in no-time.
Step 4: Don't expect help, but be grateful if its given.
Goodluck on your endeavors.

sry guys am really new at this
You're the one that have to see the ROMs availlable and choose one that you like. For one people one is the best, but for other is other... Because all ROMs have different softwares, tweaks, etc...
Just follow the link that i gave and see wich ROMs are availlable.
In the same link there is a "How 2to flash" that explains you how to do it...
There is all on this link... PLEASE use it!

does anybody have the iphone theme for the wing and instructions on how to do it appreciated thanks
The idea is
1. Read the forum ….a lot first get an idea on what’s what and how it works!
2. Go to the relevant sub section for your phone.
3. Read that forum a lot.
4. Search for the how to update my phone guide via the search function.
5. Follow the guide and then if your not certain or stuck THEN post a help request.
I think you will find that there are many different versions of the rom and you will want try the different ones yourself and see what works for you.
As a rule what one person thinks is the best thing since sliced bread the next will think is a pile of manure you ultimately will need to make a decision and once you have followed a guide (and I do mean follow to the letter) and seen how easy it is to do you will feel less worry about the process.
Have fun

Sorry..another noobie

I'm afraid I've had to resort to posting the million dollar question, how do I flash a modified ROM? I've been searching for hours on how to but just can't find anything that explains things in plainly. I've visited various websites that have links here but I can't work out where to even start. There's all this talk SPL and stuff that I have no clue what it is.
Could somebody please post replies to this and guide me through it? I'd appreciate it very much as I really like my Diamond but it could do with a boost.
Thanks
Maybe you over looked the search take a look at this thread it will help you,

Thanks guys for the pointers. I must admit I've been looking at these before. However, having looked at them in a bit more detail, I can see how it's starting to get together.
There were 3 things that I couldn't find on the pages...
1. How do I back up my existing ROM (and everything that will be overwritten) so should things go wrong, I have a restore option?
2. The page about upgrading your ROM says.."now download a ROM of your choice". Somehow that doesn't sound as simple as it's put. There are ROMs all over the place, how do I know what will work on my Diamond.
3. Is it really worth upgrading the ROM? i.e Are there any actual success stories of the Diamond "flying" along as if it's just been injected with steriods?
Look forward to your replies.
Thanks
1: ROM backup - search is your best friend, there are a few open threads about this procedure.
As for making a backup of your contacts/msgs etc, you can sync the device with windows, use PIMbackup or sprite backup.
2: You won't know till you find a ROM which fits your needs. There is no universal BEST rom...
3: Yes there are. ^.^

a good place to start is by only downloading ROMs from the Diamond forums

Need help changing language of XDA IIi

Hey everyone!
Right now its in chinese and I would like to change it to english.
I know its something to do with flashing it with an english rom but i need to know where to get the rom and step by step procedures in doing so.
Thanks in advance!
read the "read first" link in my signature, it explains all the steps necessary to perform the upgrade including download links to all programs necessary, also, all the recent roms available are linked there and you can give them a try, also there are basic must have apps around the upgrade process, like backup and stuff like that. hope that solves all your upcoming questions as well

Root and SIM Unlock complied by dataSaMm

Hi all,
It took me some time to get my phone Rooted and SIM Unlocked so I have decided to put my findings below.
Phone which I used for this post: Samsung Galaxy Y S5369, files for S5360 is also available.
Root:
Copy update.zip to SD Card
Turn off the mobile phone
Hold up volume key, home button and power button together for few seconds
Locate the update.zip and follow the easy steps
Sim Unlock
Copy Galaxy Toolbox to you your storage card
You can use ES File Explorer to find and run the application
Follow the easy instructions from the application to complete the process
I will give credits where it's due, please check here again later as I need to go through the sources again.
update.zip was retrieved from GeekDashboard.
Galaxy Toolbox was retrieved from Play Store.
There like 100 treads with this same information but thanks for the effort I guess
"[Sent from a galaxy y far far away] *ominous voice* Hit THANKS"

I think there are still many people who don't know how to root, sometimes it's nice to see the same information in a different point of view which can enable a person to try again.

I found many threads with too much information which just overloads a user. I kept this thread to minimal, plus another reason for creating this post was because my model was different compared to the standard model that everyone else got in UK.
Anyway, this post was intended to help people.

Well that makes sense but when a phone has been around as much as the SGY this issue gets tackled alot first root comes (probably b4 the phone is even released) but the original post might be confusing so someone dumbs it down and that continues the longer a phone is out the more treads for that issue pop up....BUT and u should have put that in your tread relating to the UK thing since I know with my phone (s5360l) there isn't a tread on rooting it off u search you'll find the file for s5360 which didn't work in my phone how I found the file was by happenstance viewing a tread on s5360 and someone happened to have a s5360l and got someone to convert the file to s5360l and post it but other than that single comment on a tread there's no root information on my phone I've wanted to start a tread for a while but problem is I can't remember the guy's name who converted it not to mention that for a period I was on s5360 firmware so I also have the s5360 and the s5360l update file and I don't know which 1 is the correct file lol
Hi, thanks for the easy guide, is the unlock permanent or does lock again if using the software update option on the phone?
unlock is permanent but i think its better to use the unlocker from the real developer u can find the newest one in playstore.
While Galaxy Toolbox is free and available from Play Store, to avoid unexpected threats and have the latest release, I recommend to download it from the original source: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.doky.sgtoolbox

Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini GT-19195 Cyanogen

Hey, guys, I am a complete noob when it comes to custom ROMs and a friend recommended this place. I was wondering if you guys could give me a step by step guide on how to root my device and put Cyanogen on it as that is what was recommend to me. It is a UK phone if that has a bearing as well. Sorry you probably had plenty of these threads
