Instructions

  1. Make time to follow the next steps, too. They’re the ones which are going to update your tablet in a very short amount of time (if you stick to all of them, that is). Without further ado, we give you your first tasks: after you’re done downloading and saving Google Apps from here and the on your laptop, you will have to plug the tablet to the latter. We recommend the following tool to help with this: the tablet’s USB cord.
  2. Then, once the two devices are plugged to one another, you will have to do this: take the two downloaded files from their original place and move them to the tablet’s SD card root. The Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 P5100 will have to be switched off once the transfer is all over.
  3. Then you can unplug the tablet from the notebook and enter the former in Recovery Mode by doing as follows: power your gadget on while pressing and simultaneously holding Volume Down and Power.
  4. After the Recovery Mode is in sight, you should perform the following: a full data wipe. To do that, we recommend you to opt for Factory Reset/Wipe Data.
  5. After that, you should also perform a cache wipe like this: choose Wipe Cache Partition. A wipe of the dalvik cache should also be done; this action needs to happen as shown here: go, from the Recovery, to Advanced, then make sure you choose Wipe Dalvik Cache.
  6. [sc name=”banner-jos”]Now you should return to the Recovery Screen. If you are already there, then opt for these: Install zip from SD card and then Choose zip from SD card. Wait a bit, then opt for the update file with Power after you’re close to it; the installation must be confirmed next.
  7. After one of the files is on your tablet, flash the second one – the Google Apps – by redoing the actions that flashed that one.
  8. Once this file is also among your tablet’s other additions, you should do this: go to +++Go Back+++. Then follow this up by choosing Reboot System Now from your gadget’s Recovery Menu. The tablet will then restarts and let you enjoy the upgrade to the Jelly Bean 4.2.2 unofficial ROM!
