HOW I got my Bell Mobility Galaxy Tab to work with Voice Calls

---

Hey Guys,

I picked up a galaxy tab today, and tried flashing to get voice call capabilities which is what got me to flash to JHA. I am on bell in Canada and I was not able to get data communications, but I could make a call. The APN management area wanted me to enter text for what type of APN it is, when it should be a drop down. I tried putting in "Internet + mms" but it didn't help. So, I tried flashing up to something new, figuring I would try JM6, but I started to have odin fail. I tried various combination firmware with the PIT files recommended by samsunfirmware, but I haven't been able to get any to flash successfully. For instance, I tried following this howto...

And on step A I have Odin failing saying on boot.bin.

<ID:0/011> SetupConnection..
<ID:0/011> Initialzation..
<ID:0/011> Set PIT file..
<ID:0/011> DO NOT TURN OFF TARGET!!
<ID:0/011> Get PIT for mapping..
<ID:0/011> Firmware update start..
<ID:0/011> boot.bin
<ID:0/011>
<ID:0/011> Complete(Write) operation failed.
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
<ID:0/011> Removed!!


Can anyone help me figure out the best way to get this firmware up to the best available currently for operation on Bell?

I used P1_20100909.pit for the pit file. Here is the PDA/Modem/CSC Files I used. I give no guarantee that this will work for everyone, but I went through a lot of pain in the you know what you get this figured out and working properly. I love in BC Canada and I am on Bell Mobility. I have a fully functional Tab now...

http://www.neg1.net/Custom.tar Use this as the PDA file.

http://www.neg1.net/modem_bell_i9000.zip Use the modem.bin file inside of this ZIP file.

http://www.neg1.net/CSC_P1000OXAJM6.tar.md5 Use this as the CSC file.

Flash these using ODIN 1.7 and I was all good to go.

Why are you flashing JHA? Don't you need to use JJ4 then JK5 per AT&T tab instruction from clubtech?

You might want to post in Development forum i guess.

Not sure why you had issue as i've seen Bell users flashed theirs using AT&T steps and it works. Perhaps it's different now. Thanks for sharing.

I do not have the bell tv service so I do not know. I do not see that app on my install, but even if I did, it's typically one of the first things I remove.

Bell Galaxy Tab Voice - with Gingerbread?

---

Hi Guys,

I have the following :

Bell Galaxy Tab GT-P1000M
Firmware 2.3.3 (just upgraded from Froyo)
Baseband Version P1000MUGKF6
Kernel Version 2.6.35.7
Build GINGERBREAD.UGKF6

Any idea if I can flash just the modem rom and get voice calls, or must I do everything and revert back to 2.2 froyo to get voice functionality?

Thanks for any answers!

I just rooted mine after a wipe (from 2.3), then and flashed to Overcome 3.1 Kratos, boom - voice calls and Netflix.

Hey Ive done the same thang but it wont let me make or recieve calls, any reason why?? Ill let me dial but then ends right away and when im caling my tab its goes straight to the vmail. PLs help.

@junooni.1980 I think you got radio/modem that is not voice capable. Do you have rogers/bell/at&t tab? if so try KG3 modem from galaxy i9000 forum.

Anybody else trying to get voice / data , just flash DXJPI rom and flash KG3 modem.
