US T-Mobile Galaxy Tab flashed to make phone calls

Attention : Only Phone (making/receiving calls) is working atm. 3G not yet

Process

  • Download Odin3 v1.70 to flash.
  • Used P1_20100909.pit for formating. Selected 'Repartition' 'AutoReboot' 'fResetTime'. That rebooted with nothing apparently working but the filesystem structure was setup.
  • Download P1000XXJHA for the base rom.
  • Then, unchecked the 'repartion' part (as the structure is setup, don't want to screw it up, the next flashing needs to 'drop in' where the structure is.
  • Then, loading into the JHA.rar just downloaded, flash that and reboot.
  • To update to latest download and flash P1000OXAJK1.tar
  • Pop in your SIM.
  • At this point, reboot. It'll probably show 'Emergency Calls only. Go into the wireless/Mobile Settings/NetworkOperators and make sure it is connected to TMobile.
  • Make and receive calls works.


If you have any ideas in how to make 3G work, please share them!

Bogdi,

Have you seen the youtube vid where he flashed his TMobile Tab with UK firmware? He had 3G & Google Voice working. Does this actually work?

Why is flashing process for T-mobile so complicated and different from the procedure described for a regular tab? Isn't it just enough to download a european ROM with csc, modem/phone and pit files and flash as depicted in your post on flashing Galaxy Tab?

I just bought a Galaxy Tab in the states from T-mobile without a contract.When I asked if it was unlocked they said no,so I paid $20 to cellunlockers and waiting for a code to unlock it.Now I just came home ti sweden and want to have to change firmware so I can use the tab as a phone to,question..First witch firmware do I need to have to make that work + does the phone need to be unlocked before i try to change my firmware to the European version so I might be able to buy a pay as you go sim card with a data plan and be able to make and receive phone call.Thanks...Leffe
