Im currently running jelly bean 4.1.1 it asked me to update when I got the tablet a year ago but I had looked into it and decided I wouldn't like the update.

If I go to update now what version will I get as it doesnt tell me?

And will it be worth it? I just fancied a change thats all. I know I didnt like what must of been 4.1.2 as it was on the tab I 3 originally had.

I found out the latest update for android is kitkat but not sure if I can get it on the tab 2
 
Hello and welcome to the forums . can I ask you to post your firmware it should be letters and number may end with "MK3" something like that .
 
Hi there

I updated the firmware today and it just on the screen where it shows "Samsung galaxy tab 2 10.1" and had been staying on this page for ages. I tried pressing down on power button but it keeps going back to this page and stays there. Won't show me the home page or power down. Not sure what to do! Has anyone else had this problem?


Thanks
 
I got a different issue, my home screen won't display. Just after an update this morning and nothing helps,not even factory reset... This is what I get:
Unfortunately, com.sec.android.app.launcher has stopped.

Also tell Samsung support about it. I think there are lot of issues with this latest update and they should be aware of that
 
Nope. I tried charging it and the battering charging symbol came up except it wasn't charging. Couple of hours later still no progress and the power +vol up & power + vol down doesnt work. I also tried power + touching screen at the same time. really worried it has packed it in! :-(

Is it the normal customer support through their website that I can contact?

Thanks for getting back!
 
I've tried every option in the recovery mode incl factory reset and nothing works. Will this link still work when I cant even get it to switch back on?
