We all knew it would come, but it sure got here fast. You can now make and receive calls on the new T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Tab. So let’s just skip all the talk and get straight on with how to use this puppy as a phone.
The first thing you have to do before anything else is Root your Tablet.
Now that you have root, we can proceed with the instructions on how to unlock the functionality of making and receiving calls with your T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Tab, so let’s get started.
As usual AndroidStory is not responsible for you making your device a nice paper weight, use with caution and if you have any questions or concerns, head over to the XDA thread and check out the latest.
This guide was originally post by Jyveafk on XDA.
Download Odin3 v1.70 to flash.
Use 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 already setup, you 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‘
Went into the Wireless / Mobile Settings / Network Operators and made sure it was connected to T-Mobile.
At that point, I made my first call and it worked.
Received a call too, also working.
You should now be able to enjoy making and receiving phone calls on your new T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Tab.
Have you tried this method? Did it work for you? Let us and others know.
