weeping and gnashing of teeth to upgrade for dj30 to ea24

Sorry if this isn't the right place to post this but I figured I'd post this experience I had trying to upgrade the firmware on my Sprint Galaxy tab so that other might benefit.
Here goes; I got a brand new galaxy tab with the dj30 firmware on it. I rooted it and did the wifi supplicants trip to get adhoc networks going. Nothing too strange. Then the system tried to auto updated itself to ea24 which I let it. But after I checked it it seems that the upgrade couldn't get through. This process would repeat itself on a regular basis.
I didn't think much about it until I heard that netflix could be played on certain android devices and I of course wanted to play it on my tab. I side loaded it, changed the system props and saw that it still couldn't play. My first attempt to load a custom rom(the ginger for gsm failed, yes I know they're incompatible)which bricked the phone. What then followed was an orgy of flashing anything vaguely related to the tab to get it to at least power on. The only thing that would work was the dj30 base image.
Now I'm back to square one except that my navigation system no longer works so I flash modem.bin from ea24 which fixed the gps. My tab tried to auto update itself to ea24 like it usually tries to do but this time SUCCESS!. Then two more ota updates came after that and worked just as well.
I think flashing the modem might have been what got the upgrade process going.
Sorry if this is a little long I just figured it might be useful to anyone in the same situation.

Can you Pls point me in the direction to get thus modem? I too am having this problem. [email protected]. Pls email it to me if you have. THANKS

Hey Cruton. Seems you and I are in the same position. I'm also stuck on DJ30. Managed to upgrade to rooted gingerbread, but market and browser fc no matter what I try. Your suggestion is something I haven't tried yet. Could you elaborate a bit more? I tried flashing modem.bin (from the EA24 updater) but it freezes up. Do I load it under "phone" in odin? Also, which version were you using?

Cruton. Thank you so much for going through the effort of posting your experience. You have saved my tab. I didn't know what to do anymore. Your trick worked, received all updates OTA and then I received gingerbread OTA. Everything stable and running after two weeks of trying absolutely everything (as I was in EXACTLY the same position as you, so you know how frustrating it is). I wish I could buy you a beer man. Thanks again.

I haven't had trouble with the market or the browser. I believe it was version 1.7 of Odin and I put modem.bin into the Phone section. Interestingly I had to repeat this entire process when the gingerbread update was out. I had to try 3 times with flashing modem.bin because it kept freezing up but it went through eventually. Good luck.

com.sec.app.MIPErrorNotifier running after restart

Another odd thing I am seeing since the new update, is every time I reboot, if I go into the task manager to see all my open applications... After about a minute or so, I notice there is an app in there that says MIPerroractivity, when I click app info it says it is an app called com.sec.app.MIPErrorNotifier. Why is this automatically open like an app in my task manager when I reboot? Any ody else seeing this?

I see this too

Thanks for the reply. Was hoping it wasn't just me. Perhaps someone with more insight could shed some light on this.

Same here. Not sure what this is, and if I should just freeze it using Titanium backup. Searched google and the first hit was this post
One of the subsequent posts indicates that this app existed on the S3 late last year too - http://forums.androidcentral.com/sp...ng-galaxy-s3-sprint-version-stock-rooted.html

Same here! I'm wondering if we rename it to .bak at the end if that will affect anything... anyone willing to test that lol?

I froze it using Titanium backup. No ill effects so far

QUESTION: Is everyone here running the latest KT Kernel. Bc when I reverted back to the MF9 kernel, I didn't get that anymore...

I am bone stock, haven't even rooted it yet. First time I haven't rooted a phone right out of the gate.
Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk 4 Beta

Same here just updated this morning. Bone stock and not rooted. Shows up after every reboot.
I did the update myself not via ota. Did everyone else here do it that way? Or did you receive the update via ota?
Maybe its somehow related to the way sprint is rolling out the update?

Happy I found this thread! Thought it was only me. I flashed the MF9 zip, and I'm using KT kernel.
The thing running doesn't really bother me, I'd just like to know what it's for. I kill it every time I reboot anyway

Should I have? I used Odin to get to stock MDL, then flashed the MF9 zip in recovery. Nothing else. Why would I need to flash the modem if the modem is in the OTA?

Did the same thing.

I also get this PITA notice.
Only thing I have been able to find so far is it appears to have something to do with "Mobile IP ERRor".
I will not claim to know what this means.
I have noticed that I have no cell service while roaming at home anymore.
Hopefully, this is because I am slightly (1/4 mile) outside of the official roaming service area.
I am hoping I can reset the phone profile once I get back into Sprint's network later today.
I am also not sure if this is related to MY upgrading to MF9 using the manual ZIP from SD card method and not waiting for the official OTA update.

I already posted that I did the ota stock non rooted and it appears for me.

After a bit of review
Ok, so I've been doing a little testing this AM to see if I could get to the bottom of this error.
After rebooting, locking and unlocking a ton of times I've decided its related to wifi connecting on the initial boot.
After a while I started noticing a pattern in relation to the toast message that pops up when it initially connects to wifi and the error showing up.
To confirm my theory, I removed the local wifi at my office, and on reboot, no error.
I have zero clue on how to fix the issue, but just wanted to point any devs looking into this in the right direction.
Additional notes, I'm stock, not rooted, and updated via the sdcard method.

I believe you are absolutely correct in your assumption. I can replicate this as you say. Also, I am completely stock, unrooted and gained the update via OTA.

I use aosp 95% of the time I've had my GS4 and I never update prl/pro and I have lte when other people who are completely stock tw don't and have to update to get it. Not sure what your issue was, all tw have the option to update pro/prl maybe something was up with Sprint..? I've had no issues using Aosp and we have some killer roms (official) for this device! Maybe someone else will have a solution to this.. I used Chainfires auto root twice and always was able to update em.

The error I get which I forgot to mention is "session in progress, please try again later". it only does this while rooted. I can immediately unroot and flash back to stock and everything works perfectly.

I've seen that a few times but I immediately hit update again and everything works fine.
Oh and I'm always rooted.

I took the chance and this time everything worked perfectly! I only wanted to root for the hotspot mod so I'm glad all went well.

Non-Verizon sim, broken sms with 5.0 root

So I've replicated this problem three or four times, after which I've given up on updating to 5.0 until I have some solid solutions. Whenever I try to flash one of the rooted OA8 roms here on xda I lose the ability to send sms, that is literally the only thing that is broken (4g works, calls work, phone activates to towers fine.) My process for flashing these roms has been full wipe > flash rom > reboot download > odin OA8 kernel; that's coming from rooted NK2. I've talked to another user on here who has the same problem and our common thing is that we're both on non-verizon sims (straight talk in my case.) I've tried updating the PRL, wiping cache/dalvik, factory reset. Downgrading back to 4.4.4 fixes it every time, so it's definitely not a network issue. What's the issue here? I realize that those of us with non-verizon plans are the minority here, but if anyone who knows more about this than me has some suggestions, throw them down here.

Same problem for me.
Havent been able to send sms or mms while on lollipop. kitkat works fine. wish they would fix this. i love using lollipop.

Yeah honestly I'm thinking it's something the rom devs will have to fix on their end, if possible. I've been rooting for a while, on a number of phones, and haven't run into anything like this before. I'm afraid it's out of my little bit of android knowledge

I had the same problem, however it was only for sending mms while on wifi. Have you tried using a different app?

Yeah, stock vzw app and google's messenger neither worked for me

Lag after root

Hey guys,
Great site. I have the lag problem with my S7 edge after root. Downloaded fix file from link in other in (Rooting Problem). Not sure what to do now. Do I flash zip with Flashfire? Leave it in the zip state? I realize this is elementary to most, just been a very long time for me. Hated to ask the question again. Wouldn't let me ask it in the thread I mention.

Never mind, figured it out. Thanks for the 37 views without advice.

Well what file did you download and did you use flashfire to install? I don't have root just curious

There's a file on the Verizon forum that helps most if not all the issues with root. Just flash it once and you're good to go. OP just doesn't understand people here aren't obligated to help him, self entitled privilege at it's best.

Sorry guy. You are right. I should of explained. I followed directions from this youtube video ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kqb-p2JO5I4 ). Worked , but was lagging and wifi issues. Came here, found and flashed with Flashfire., the wifi fix file , which I can't seem to find here now. Everything worked great. Until next morning it was stucked on AT&T logo. Only could get it into download mod. Had to do a factory rest. Want to youtube to look for a different way to root. Found this ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QcFEcycZZnU ) followed directions and seem to work great right now. But time will tell. Sorry for the rushed details, busy day. Thanks.

Update. Yesterday got stucked on AT&T logo AGAIN. I decided the heck with this root, 4th time I had to set phone up from start. I did a factory reset. Set my phone back up. Lost my root according to Root Checker. But I am getting security warning, and when it reboots. It still shows custom and unlocked. Any ideals? As so, I tried to do the AT&T update, but it fails.

If it is showing custom & unlocked, you might have a custom recovery and/or unlocked bootloader. Just got the S7 edge, so I haven't really messed around with the internals yet (or anything dealing with rooting or unrooting), but that's usually what that means in my experience. The fix is usually an odin flash to the stock image, but as I said, I haven't really gotten too involved with it yet. A factory reset will set the system back to stock, but I don't think it does anything with the other partitions. Good luck and if I can find anything out that might help, I'll come back by.
So far as the update, do you have all the prerequisite stock bloatware installed? There are apps that are required for an update to work. If you uninstalled any it will freeze you out of getting updates.
And my signature is so out of date it is funny.
