[ROM] Verizon i815 STOCK ICS rooted IMM76D.LP11 - Verizon OTA as CWM flashable ROM
- Thread starter electron73
- Start date
Halp! I was updating busybox on my tab and something borked in the process. I have no WiFi access and busybox and other programs are saying SU is not installed/available. Can I just re-root the thing or do I have to start over? Thanks!
It was the built in SuperSU that came bundled with the ROM (this ROM in particular).
Something tells me there is no reason to update to LP 11 if I use as a wifi tablet only. I don't want any wifi issues, although I am tired of the nagging update notification. If I just flash the LP11 ROM and not modem, should I see any issues?
Also, I just got this tablet a week ago from a friend for free, it was basically brand new, he just never used it and is an Apple fan. Is there a stable 4.1.2 ROM for the i815. I forgot how much ICS sucks compared to JB. I have a Galaxy Tab 2 7 that runs 4.4 flawlessly. I tried the new 4.2.2 Bean Stalk ROM but it had too many issues and was laggy. Again, I don't use data nor do I plan to. Regardless, does a P6800 ROM work on our tablet if we don't want data?

I had zero issues with LP11 and WiFi for over the year that I'd been using it, up until I borked it with the BusyBox upgrade. AFIK there is no official JB update yet, so all the unofficial ones will have a few bugs included.
After trying just about every rom available for the i815 I finally came back to LP11. It is by far the most stable, my data works and I don't have any glitchy applications. I know the dev's are trying but I just think this forgotten tablet does not have the large developer base needed to provide constant updates. I know the few devs here work hard but there are so few of them for this platform. Darn shame as I still think it's a solid tablet for it's age.
can someone point me how to get this thing rooted to try this update. My buddy was given this tablet for free because it nonstop reboots. Im the only one who he knows thisd type of stuff, and I cant get it. Ive tried the stock update firmware, but no go.. Id be happy to try anything, THIS THING IS A PAPER WEIGHT RIGHT NOW. I been messing with it for about a week. Ive tried different odin versisons,, and read through a cuople complete threads without getting any further. im stuck

Just as an update to any future readers, I had to reflash the complete ROM to fix the issues. Was a pain, but was able to back up everything before I did it so nothing lost but time.
Need to update bootloader for SCH-i815 but all links to files neeed are dead. Help!
I have an older Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7 LTE Verizon SCH-i815 and I broke one of the most important rules of flashing, never flash while drinking. :silly: So I accidentally flashed the wrong cwm recovery and soft bricked then unbricked then bootlooped my tablet. I managed to install what I think is the correct CWM recovery img but now I am in bootloop with CWM recovery and stock recovery both working (sorta). I am not an expert so I have to follow guides and all the guides I can find for this device are old and the links for the files I need are dead. Please someone help!!!

Try Twrp instead as its still being actively developed and maintained.

Even for bootloaders
I will look into that. Is it also what would help me fix my bootloader? I think maybe thats what's corrupted.

13UPDATE: My hosting I had for XDA related work expired, so I re-uploaded everything here: http://www.mods4cars.com/pub/xda
Here's the new Verizon OTA packaged up as a full CWM flashable ROM. Wiping should not be necessary if you are coming from our last ICS ROM (LP10).
This is meant for those who have CWM installed and for those who modified their system to the point that the OTA does not work because it expects certain files.
If you are on full stock (rooted) ICS LP10 and are not getting the OTA update the regular way, you can look here for a way to manually install it:

The rom is pre-rooted. After installing, run super-su and let it check for binary updates. Also a cached copy of su for restoring with Voodoo OTA rootkeeper is included (for extra safety).
Part1: The ROM
Install with CWM

Part2: The MODEM
Flash with ODIN in PHONE section
http://electron73.org/XDA/i815/electron_ICS-LP11_i815_modem.tar
Part3 (optional): Stock Recovery
If you want to be full stock afterwards, flash with ODIN in PDA section
http://electron73.org/XDA/i815/electron_ICS-LP11_i815_recovery.tar
Part4 (optional): Stock SBL
If you did all 3 parts above and want to be able to receive future Verizon OTA's flash this in ODIN in BOOTLOADER section
