Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 P5110 GT-P5110 Firmware (Flash File) Drivers, Tools & Guide

Flashing Samsung firmware with Odin is fairly straightforward once you know what to look out for. I have gathered the necessary files and instructions on this page: the right firmware file for the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 P5110 GT-P5110, the correct Odin version, and the steps that work.

Before you begin, ensure you sign out of your Samsung account. If you skip this step, Knox will trigger, and dealing with a KG lock takes extra time. Samsung firmware comes in .tar.md5 format, after extracting the ZIP, you should see files named AP_*, BL_*, CP_*, and CSC_* (or HOME_CSC_*). If you do not see these, you have the wrong package.

There is currently only one firmware build available for the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 P5110 GT-P5110. This is the stock ROM you should use for recovery, unbricking, or FRP bypass. The Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 P5110 GT-P5110 was originally released in 2012, which means USB driver compatibility on newer Windows versions (10/11) may require manual installation rather than plug-and-play. The stock firmware ships with Android 4.0.3 (Ice Cream Sandwich), upgradable to 4.2.2 (Jelly Bean), TouchWiz UX UI, which determines the default apps, security features, and interface you will see after flashing.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 P5110 GT-P5110 was released in 2012. This page is maintained with the latest available firmware builds as they become available. Samsung firmware uses a multi-file system (AP, BL, CP, CSC) specific to Odin-based flashing, which differs from single-file scatter-based tools.

The firmware for the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 P5110 GT-P5110 comes as a compressed ZIP file. Download and extract it using WinRAR or 7-Zip. After extracting, you should see files named like AP_*.tar.md5, BL_*.tar.md5, CP_*.tar.md5, and CSC_*.tar.md5 (or HOME_CSC_*.tar.md5). If you do not see these files, you may have the wrong firmware package for your device.

This process restores the device to its original factory state, which means all your personal data will be lost. That clean wipe is exactly what fixes persistent problems like bootloops, forgotten locks, Google account verification, battery drain, and system errors.


Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 P5110 GT-P5110 Hard Reset Guide

To factory reset Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 P5110 GT-P5110 without a computer, power off the device completely, then hold Volume Up + Power (for older models with a Home button, use Volume Up + Home + Power) at the same time until the recovery menu appears. Use the volume keys to navigate to “Wipe Data/Factory Reset” and confirm with the Power button.

A hard reset erases all data and restores Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 P5110 GT-P5110 to its original factory state. This fixes most software problems, slow performance, app crashes, forgotten screen locks, and bootloops. If the issue persists after a factory reset, a full firmware flash using Odin is covered in the following sections.


Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 P5110 GT-P5110 Google Account Bypass After Reset

The fastest way to bypass FRP on Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 P5110 GT-P5110 is to use a free Android apps launcher that lets you access settings during the setup wizard. After flashing or performing a factory reset you may see a Google account lock (FRP). Our free Android apps launcher is the fastest way to get past it. This is also why I always recommend removing your Google account before flashing, it avoids this problem entirely.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 P5110 GT-P5110 Firmware Compatibility Check

The single biggest mistake I see people make is flashing firmware meant for a different variant. Before downloading anything, verify your exact device identity:

  1. Identify Your Exact Model Number: Go to Settings › About Phone and note your full model number (e.g. GT-P5110). The letter suffix matters, U/U1 = USA, W = Canada, N = Korea, B/F = International/Global. Flashing firmware built for a different variant can cause issues.
  2. Match the CSC (Region): The 3-letter region code in the firmware filename must match your device. Check Settings › About Phone › Software Information for your current CSC, or look at the Service Provider line in Download Mode. Common codes: XAA (US), BTU (UK), INS (India), SER (Russia).
  3. Check the Binary Level: Look at the version string in your current firmware (e.g. XXU9BZDP, the number after the letters is the binary level). You cannot downgrade to a lower binary level. If your device is on Binary 9, only flash Binary 9 or higher firmware.
  4. Confirm the Build Date: The last 4 characters of the PDA version encode the build date, first character is the year (A=2024, B=2025, C=2026), second is the month (A=Jan through L=Dec).
  5. Verify in Download Mode: Power off, hold Volume Down + Power to enter Download Mode. This screen shows your exact model, CSC, and current firmware version, use this to confirm before flashing.

Which Firmware Version Should I Download?

This is the question I get asked most often in the comments, so I put together a simple guide. Find your situation in the table and go straight to the right file:

Your Situation What I Recommend
Phone is completely dead or stuck on logothe latest version, download this one. It is the latest Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 P5110 GT-P5110 firmware available.
FRP / Google account lock onlySee the FRP bypass guide above, you likely do not need the full firmware for this.
Not sure which region/CSC to downloadCheck Settings › About Phone › Software Information for your current CSC, or enter Download Mode (Volume Down + Power), it shows the CSC on screen. Match the 3-letter code (e.g. XAA, BTU, INS) to the firmware filename.
Phone slow after a recent OTA updateTry the next older version, sometimes the latest OTA introduces new bugs and an older build runs better. Make sure the binary level is the same or higher than what your device currently has.
IMEI missing after a previous flashRe-flash the latest version first, then follow the IMEI repair guide. Do not skip the reflash.
the latest version failed with a flash errorTry the next older version instead and double-check your AP/BL/CP/CSC file assignments in Odin before assuming the firmware is the problem.
Restoring to factory / warranty repairthe latest version, clean state, fresh start.

To tell which Samsung firmware is newer, look at the last 4 characters of the PDA version string (e.g. S938BXXU9CZDP). The first character is the year (A=2024, B=2025, C=2026), the second is the month (A=Jan, B=Feb… L=Dec, Z=final stable), and the last two are the revision (0-9 then A-Z, where Z is highest). But before comparing dates, always check the binary level: the digit just before the date code (e.g. XXU9CZDP = Binary 9). You cannot downgrade to a lower binary level. If your device is on Binary 9, only flash Binary 9 or higher. Also make sure the 3-letter CSC code in the firmware matches your device region.

Only download firmware that is fully compatible with your exact device model. See the firmware selection guide above if you are not sure.

Important: The Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 P5110 GT-P5110 (GT-P5110) should not be confused with other Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 P5110 variants that may have different chipsets or regional firmware. Even devices in the same Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 P5110 line can use completely different processors. Always verify your exact model code “GT-P5110” in Settings > About Phone before downloading any firmware from this page.

⚠ Compatibility Warning, Do NOT flash this firmware if:
  • Your model number is a variant of GT-P5110 with a different letter suffix. Check About Phone carefully, one letter difference can cause a failed or broken flash.
  • Your chipset differs from Texas Instruments OMAP 4430. Confirm in recovery mode before proceeding.
  • You downloaded the file from a source other than this page.
  • The file size differs significantly from the sizes listed in the table above, a size mismatch usually means a partial download, which will fail mid-flash.

What You Need Before Flashing Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 P5110 GT-P5110

Go through this list before you open Odin for the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 P5110 GT-P5110. Two things that commonly cause problems with Samsung devices: a Samsung account that was not signed out before flashing, which can trigger KG lock, and a USB cable that works for charging but drops the connection mid-flash. Always use a proper data cable, not a charge-only cable.

  1. Save Your IMEI Numbers: Type *#06# in the phone dialer and note down both numbers. These are your device identifiers for the cellular network. If flashing wipes them, you will need the originals to write them back.
  2. Remove Google Accounts: Before you start anything, remove all Google accounts from the phone. Settings then Accounts then tap each Google account and remove it. This avoids the FRP verification screen that appears after flashing if accounts were still linked.
  3. Remove Samsung Accounts: Sign out of all Samsung accounts to avoid KG lock.
  4. Create a Backup: Copy your data to your computer or an SD card. Flashing replaces the entire software on the phone, which means all personal data, apps, and settings will be permanently deleted.
  5. Charge First: Get the battery above 50% before starting. The flashing process takes a few minutes and the first boot takes several more. A power failure during either stage can leave the device in a state that requires more advanced recovery.
  6. Prepare Your PC Connection: You need a Windows computer and a USB cable that supports data transfer. Test the cable first by connecting the phone normally, if it shows up in File Explorer, the cable is good.
  7. Install the Right Drivers:

Step-by-Step: Flash Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 P5110 GT-P5110 Stock ROM

We are using Odin for this. A quick tip: keep “Auto Reboot” and “F. Reset Time” both checked in Odin, those two options together give you the cleanest flash result. If you are not sure which Odin version to use, check our Odin versions page. Some older Samsung devices work better with older Odin builds.

  1. Prepare the Flash Files:
    • Go to the download section and grab the firmware package that matches your device.
    • Unzip the file to a folder on your desktop. Avoid using folder names with non-English characters or spaces, the flash tool may not read them correctly.
  2. Confirm Driver Setup:
    • The drivers listed in prerequisites need to be installed and working before you connect the phone. If you are not sure, reinstall them and restart your computer.
  3. Load the Firmware File:
    • In Odin, click “BL” and select the BL_*.tar.md5 file. Click “AP” and select the AP_*.tar.md5 file. Repeat for “CP” and “CSC”. Use HOME_CSC to keep data, or CSC for a clean flash.
  4. Connect Your Device:
    • Enter Download Mode: Turn off your phone, then hold Volume Down + Power (add Home button on older models) until the warning screen appears. Press Volume Up to confirm and enter Download Mode.
    • Connect your phone to your PC via USB. Odin should show “Added..” in the log area, this means your device is detected.
  5. Start Flashing:
    • Click “Start” to kick off the firmware write.
    • Hands off the phone and cable until the tool shows completion. Moving or disconnecting the device mid-flash is the most common cause of a bricked phone.
  6. Wait and Reboot:
    • When you see the success message, disconnect the USB cable.
    • Hold the power button to boot the phone. Give it a solid 5 to 8 minutes for the first startup, this is normal.

Post-Flash Behavior on Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 P5110 GT-P5110

Here is what is completely normal after a successful flash:

  • How to know the flash was successful: Odin will show “PASS.” in green text at the top-left of the log area. If you see this, everything went fine.
  • Stuck in a bootloop after first boot? Enter recovery mode and do a factory reset from there, see the hard reset guide above. This can happen occasionally and does not mean the firmware is wrong.
  • The phone will feel warm during first boot, this is normal. It settles after a few minutes once the initial app setup is complete.
  • Fingerprint and face unlock data are erased during the flash. You will need to re-register your fingerprints and face data from scratch in the security settings.
  • Notification sounds and ringtones will be back to factory defaults. Any custom tones you had set before will need to be re-downloaded and re-assigned in Settings.
  • Dial *#06# immediately after setup to check your IMEI. Do this before you insert a SIM card. If it shows “unknown” or “null”, follow the IMEI repair guide below before doing anything else.
  • Battery percentage may seem inaccurate for the first day. The battery statistics are calibrated during normal use. Charge the phone fully once without interruption and the readings will stabilize.

Troubleshooting Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 P5110 GT-P5110 Flash Errors

  1. Odin Shows “FAIL” Instead of “PASS”:
    • This is usually a mismatch between the firmware region or model and your device. Confirm your exact model number in Settings › About Phone before selecting the firmware. Even a single letter difference in the model code matters.
  2. Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 P5110 GT-P5110 Not Recognized by Odin:
    • Reinstall the Samsung USB drivers. Make sure you are in Download Mode. Try a different USB cable, Odin can be sensitive to cable quality.
  3. KG Lock / Knox Triggered After Flashing:
    • This happens when a Samsung account was still signed in before flashing, or when unofficial firmware was used. Always sign out of Samsung accounts before flashing. If KG lock is already active, a professional unlocking tool is generally needed.
  4. Boot Loop After Flashing:
    • Enter recovery mode (Volume Up + Power) and perform a factory reset. This clears any leftover data from the previous firmware that may be causing the conflict.

Missing IMEI or Corrupt Baseband on Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 P5110 GT-P5110 After Flashing?

A missing IMEI on a Samsung device after flashing usually points to a corrupted EFS partition, this is the partition that stores your IMEI and carrier settings. Note that restoring an IMEI that is not your original number is illegal in most countries, so only do this if you are restoring the number the device had before you flashed. Tools like ChimeraTool or BFT can help with this. Check your local laws before proceeding.

Common Questions About Flashing Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 P5110 GT-P5110

Q1: Can I go back to an older firmware version?
A: It is technically possible on some MediaTek builds, but downgrading can cause security issues and app compatibility problems. If the latest version is causing trouble, leave a comment below, there is usually a better fix than rolling back.

Q2: What should I do if I encounter an FRP lock after flashing?
A: Use our free Android apps launcher. FRP lock activates when a Google account was still signed in before flashing. This is why signing out of your Google account before flashing avoids this issue entirely.

Q3: Can I flash this firmware if my phone does not turn on at all?
A: Yes, in most cases. Samsung devices can usually enter Download Mode even when the screen is completely dead, hold Volume Down + Power for 10 seconds. If the battery is completely drained, charge it for at least 15 minutes first.

Q4: My IMEI shows “unknown” after flashing. Is my phone permanently damaged?
A: No, it looks alarming, but it is fixable. Follow the IMEI repair guide in the troubleshooting section above. For Samsung devices, check for EFS partition corruption first. Do not insert a SIM card until the IMEI is restored.

Q5: Do I need an internet connection during flashing?
A: No. The flashing process is entirely offline, it happens between your PC and the phone via the USB cable. You do not need internet at any point during the flash itself. You will need internet later to set up the phone and download your apps.

Q6: Can I use a Mac or Linux computer for this?
A: Samsung firmware can be flashed using Heimdall on Linux or Mac, but the instructions on this page are written for Odin on Windows. If you only have a Mac, you may want to use a Windows virtual machine or Boot Camp for the most straightforward experience.

Q7: Will flashing erase my data?
A: Yes, flashing with Odin restores the device to factory state, including Android 4.0.3 (Ice Cream Sandwich), upgradable to 4.2.2 (Jelly Bean), TouchWiz UX UI default settings. All apps, photos, contacts, and accounts will be removed. Back up everything you need before you start. There is no way to recover data once the flash is complete.

Q8: Is this firmware compatible with other Samsung models?
A: No. This firmware is built specifically for the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 P5110 GT-P5110 running on the Texas Instruments OMAP 4430 chipset. Even variants of the Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 P5110 with a different letter suffix can have a completely different chipset inside. Flashing the wrong firmware can leave your phone in a state that is very difficult to recover from. Always check your exact model number in Settings.
