do you have any backup of previous roms or atlest your EFS ??
If you have flashed the rom from Philz or CWM recovery then there are high chances that the developer have used the option of "Backing up EFS" and it might be on your sd card..

Please share what have you done so far with your tab.. if you got no backup of EFS then forget about calling functions of your tab .. All i can help without the EFS backup is in restoring your tab back to its normal state..

go to sammobile.com download your ROM from there :
1) Go to sammobile
2) Register and sign in
3) Go to firmware section
4) download the P3100 rom of your location ..
5) Flash it with odin with "Phone EFS clear " option UNTICKED


You might have ticked that option and your EFS got cleared .
Efs holds the imp data like IMEI numbers .. which is illegal to fiddle with in any country..
More info here : http://rescueroot.com/android/how-to-back-up-efs-on-samsung-devices/
and here : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nl.boris.efsbackup



AND THIS IS THE DANGEROUS ONE:

Do this only if you are little expireinced in rooting and stuffs ..

and i hope next time onwards you will be carefull to backup your EFS

well first forget about the efs imei and calling functions.. just restore your mobile to normal state .. like usable without simcard...
I told you to download from sammobile .. and flash that tar.md5 file from odin..

EDIT.. i realise that you already have the device in a working state lol ..

Just back up the current EFS "the currupted one" and folow the instructions on a the link i gave you at the bottom of my previous post..

it might be just a widget .. try removing it .. if it doesnt then i think you should just try to reprogram your EFS rather than trying to remove that yellow thing..

Just follow the links i gave you.. study what efs it .. go to the last link i gave , and try doing the things that it says to create your EFS..
Note: the guide is generic for all samsung galaxy devices .. so you might have to google up a bit to keep up with the guide..
