Dude, Thanks for this!
Just waited 1.5 hours for sammobile download to finish, and then I found this.
Just one question... is there any changelog available for the updated firmwares?
Kinda want to know what the differences are between my current FW and the updated one.

Problem is, samsung never release any changelog, they just give numbers. Changelist called. Higher means later version and more changes, but what changes... that just knows samsung
All I know is that, the new update is always better than stock. It could be faster/optimised or it can be a surprise! The nov update seems to get better performance is what i know
Flashing fails
I have the SM-T700 and decided to download and flash it but everytime it fails in the last step and now it is stuck in "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue" screen. Why is this happening. any help?

Its Canadian and I flashed the Cellular South version. Are tablets locked too? There are only 3 versions of the new firmware available, Russia, Cellular South and Italy.
UPDATE: I am downloading the russian version. I will try to flash that and see if it works cuz right now I have soft-bricked my tablet

Yeah some tablets have some sort of country lock. Someone in my thread had this problem. So here later flashed a different one and it worked. Try asking the guy to get an Canadian version

It depends the way Samsung signed it I guess. Some works, some dont. Atleast it worked for you!
I had the same problem with the cellular southern firmware numerous times then tried again after factory resetting first ,loading the firmware, followed by restore with titanium backup, with success. Feels much better with this firmware by the way☺

With this firmware here?
Yes in caution I re download the firmware here and attempted both dirty and post wiping flashes, post wiping flash worked for me. The failure occurred at the loading of the hidden section
So I flashed the T700 firmware, coming from CWM and a CM12 ROM from this board, and now my tablet is completely stuck. It got past the first part of booting, but it's stuck at the final Samsung logo. Won't respond to any sort of button combination to restart it, even when I plug it in. Is there a way to restart it, or am I screwed?
Am looking for the Swiss t-700 firmware ANL1. It's showing on sammobile, but unable to download. This seems to be the latest version.
Update : using this now.

Anyone manage to download the Canadian Anl2 firmware successfully? I tried twice and both times get an extraction error with the zip file.

I have noticed a few Firmware variants for the SM-T800 which specifically states in the title they are for the 16gb version. Is there any reason that they shouldn't work on a 32gb model? I need to get rid of the bloat and speed up this nice piece of hardware.

I have a Korean version of Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 SM-T210L and lots of korean language bothers me very much....
May I flash it with firmwares for SM-T210 but avoiding bricking it?
Or maybe there are working CWM or TWRP for this device at least?
I have the same Korean SM-T210L version and tried the firmware available for SM-T210. It didn't work, it hangs upon booting, showing the Samsung brand. I'm still looking for a solution.

I second that. We could really use a working 4.2 build!
#3 and #4: Since my SM-T210L is no longer working (after installing the SM-T210 firmware), I guess it would be of little use if I upload a system dump from my device. Please advice, I am lacking of experience.

hmmm. another dirty trick by samsung. They fail to provide stock firmware to lots of devices. If the other guy responds I could help get the tab up and running. If it's partitions as I imagine stock would just be system and boot . My Galaxy Exhibit t599 was the same way without factory images

Doesn't KIES provide an "emergency" restore? If not all the more reason for you to try and get a system dump . Maybe you know someone who has a working tab? (Korean tab models aren't very common here in Berlin... )

No, unfortunately KIES is not capable of updating the firmware. It seems the SM-T210L model is not supported, too bad. Thank you anyway for the suggestion!

New Tab update
Hi all,
My kid was given a korean SM-T210L version Galaxy Tab 3, the android version installed on the tab is 4.1.2; unfortunately it does not allow me to upgrade any further. is there a root version that will allow me to update the operating software.
I have never rooted a phone or a tab before therefore will really appreciate any assistance.
Thanks,
Zach

To restore original version 4.1.2, I used below link.
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1zwvavvfWEMvzSMMc970N_uIsgrdn1bag
I tried twice with Odin 3.09, my tab was restore. For first fail, I don't know why to fail. But in second try I was working.
I wish that it will be helpful for you.
Also I am looking for upgrade version 4.2.
Solved - Rooted SM-T210L
(sorry to new to the forum to post actual links - reply if you need them)
I was able to root my SM-T210L using the same method that everyone else is posting, Odin (version 3.12.3 in my case) and using this compressed file T210.TWRP.2.8.0.0.tar.md5 You also have to copy SuperSU to your tablet (either on a SD Card or through a USB cable onto the device memory directly) search for SuperSU
Here are the instructions (most complete in my view) that seemed to be able to work for me. Go to droidviews site and search on the model to find the instructions.
Even though the image file does not have the model SM-T210L specifically, I did not have any problems with it and was able to root it successfully. I then was able to delete all of the bloatware that came with the tablet, especially all of the Korean based applications that I can't use.
Is there anyone who still have the SM-T210L firmware? Please give links for download.

There was an update do 4.2.2 but not in my country (Poland). I know that I can make manual update, but my question is: is the 3g will be working? From which country should I choose an update?

Ok, my N5100 had the same modem/software as yours. I rooted with CF-Auto-Root: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2291839. Next, using odin, I flashed PhilZ Touch: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2552657 to get a custom recovery. Last, using PhilZ, I flashed this rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2407752.
Everything went very smooth. It was the easiest root and upgrade I have done. I ended up with stock-rooted 4.2.2. 3g works great on AT&T and phone reception is also very good.
Read the instructions in each of the forums and be careful that you download the correct files. For example, PhilZ has a file for the N5100 as well as the N5110.
Hope this helps.

Hey guys
I know its probably been asked a few times before but i just want to make sure i've got the right stuff to upgrade my P600. Heres my circumstances....
1. Un-rooted and would like to remain that way (for now)
2. P600 note 10.1 running MJ6 firmware
3. Living in the UK
Anyway, i've downloaded ODIN v3.09 but im not sure on which region MK1 update would be best to go for? If possible could someone post the link to the one most suited for me (I'm thinking US) and a guide relevant to what i'm doing with this device and update.
Cheers lads,

Hi,
Samsung updates go alphabetically, J, K, L if you follow me. ML1 is the latest, Taiwan region but it's fine. (I'm UK as well using ML1)
Use this guide, there's links as well. Ignore the bit about having root in the first place it's fine just follow the guide in the second post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2618509
In that thread there are mirrors for stock firmware because Samsung ones are very slow.

It shouldn't wipe data unless you do it yourself. I've updated myself without wiping but it is best to wipe data to prevent any issues/errors.

SM-t807t root
I was looking for a root. glad it is finally out there. I dont know what i would do without these roots now that i have them. But i keep seeing TWRP and recovery and flashes. I have no idea what those are or what they entail. Can someone explain a little. Do i need those? If i install them/use them will i lose the root? Or are they recovery systems incase of a brick so i dont gain a 600$ paperweight?

For what it's worth, since I posted it the other day there has been over 180 downloads, but hardly any feedback, but I suppose no news is good news.

It all depends on your requirements. If you just want root and no custom recovery then flash the unmodified cf-autoroot.
If you want an updated version with an updated and fixed twrp recovery then flash my version.
Also note that the guide you posted does link to outdated software and also makes the install of both root and twrp a 4 step process.
Using my version it's a one step process.
The choice is yours.
I'm stuck
I got to the point where ODIN said it was done, the tablet still says Downloading but Odin said leave cs. Tablet won't respond at all.

hello,I want to F936U flash F936u1 Firmware,how can I do?
I'm absolutely sure that you can do that.
I have tried it yesterday and successfully changed the model.
But, you can't flash it via ordinary Odin. You have use a patched Odin which can be found in XDA and flash the u1 firmware in it.

我绝对确定你可以做到这一点。
我昨天试了一下，成功换了型号。

Just a note that although it doesn't matter, it was originally a SM-F936U (updated to U1 then W)

Hey shorty I bought it used with U firmware and just to be safe to make sure it's stock and the fact U (and W) versions didn't get much updates, I flashed with the U1. Android 13 was released first for unbranded Canada XAC and since I'm actually using on Canadian networks, might as well. So far ok. No issues to report.

Well that's good to hear that makes sense then, so you are using it on a Canadian carrier??
I only as Cuz I have AT&T and I'm trying to figure out why mine has a completely different firmware then what sammobile shows what the at&t firmware is and my zfold4 is saying it's on the current firmware witch clearly tells me it's not!! oh does yours show the oem unlock btw
At&t z fold 4 SM-F936U or SM-F936U1
Hello all now I'm just confused so my zFold4 says it's the SM-F936U and I did the updates sense i figured if the US varients are not rootable as of now im just going to update it to the 13 update and after it up dated twice last night and it...

Ok I just flashed from U1 to a W ROM, specifically F936U1UES1AVJ1 (Android 12, XAA) to F936WVLU1BVK3 (13, XAC), and it all seems like it works fine. I'll update if I run into anything in the next few days.
Just a note that although it doesn't matter, it was originally a SM-F936U (updated to U1 then W)

Hey I have a question, in order to update to the W XAC, did you have to delete user data? Or were you able to update keeping your data. Thanks

Hey I'm not too sure if you mean this, but yes mine is factory unlocked (actually a dev/demo device). And yes on Canadian network. You can always flash with the newest ATT ROM if yours is from ATT but hasn't gotten updates. Just make sure it indeed is the right model.

I did not keep user data so not sure if you can or should. But I think if you're switching model/CSC, the general consensus is to do a clean flash. If you just want to enable Canadian bands that are disabled on a US device, you can search up a way to do so I think using engineering mode.

Okie dokie sounds good I'm just looking into it and noticed all varients have a similar codes and my pituitary one has the firmware matching the MetroPCS firmware but the only firmware that I have found for at&t comes up as the smf936u1 at least on sammobile I suppose I'll have to check other firmware sites thanks for the reply hope you are having a wonderful day

If you're on any of the U or U1 firmware, I think you can safely flash to any other U/U1 without any issues. I usually cross reference with samfw and Frija too. Have a wonderful day too friend.
Would this enable Sim for phones without it? The SM-F9360 does not have esim support, could be software, I hope.
Can i go from U to W and then root? Or not possible?
Can I go from ATT and flash TMO variant if the model number is the same? SM-F936U? The phone is unlocked FYI. [email protected]
