The first Jelly Bean update for the Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus GT-P6200 started rolling out back in March this year. The firmware released then was branded and was meant for A1 users in Austria. Samsung has now released some more firmware for unbranded Tab 7.0 Plus that can be installed on any carrier unbranded device, no matter from what country or region you belong to.
Since the Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean update is already rolling out, you might also update your Tab 7.0 Plus via Samsung Kies or on-device software update feature. In case you do not find the update notification, you can download firmware from below and install it manually using the easy installation guide.
The new Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean update brings most of the features on the Premium Suite Upgrade from Samsung and introduces several new feature and improvements such as the Nature TouchWiz UX, Google Now, new Notification Panel, smoother UI (Project Butter), Samsung Cloud service, Blocking Mode, new Lockscreen, new AccuWeather, various new apps and much more.
The least of new features and changes is enough to show that it is a major upgrade that’ll completely enhance your experience with your Tab Plus GT-P6200 and revive it.
How to Install
Quick Steps:
- Download the firmware from above and unzip it.
- Download Odin3 tool and unzip it too: Odin3-v3.07.zip
- Download and install Samsung USB Drivers or Kies on your PC.
- Backup your phone data using these apps.

- Do not touch anything else on Odin and click on the Start button.
- Wait till the firmware is flashed, which is indicated by PASS! message, and then your device will reboot.
You can now disconnect the cable. When your Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus GT-P6200 boots up, it will have the new 4.1.2 firmware installed on it. To verify, open Settings> About. In case the device is stuck on a boot loop, follow the steps under Method 1 given our boot loop recovery tutorial for Android.

How to download firmware
as hotfile is banned by US gov.
any solution?
I’m in South Africa, which firmware download should I use?
I tried with Open Austria & it returned a fail.
You can try the Russian version, but before doing that, try reinstalling the same firmware first. And if you got the failed error in the first attempt, it could be due to some other reason. Please check if you have not made any other mistake while installing it.
If all things seem fine, give a try to Odin 1.85: http://d-h.st/em3

i already follow the instruction given but still fail to update. Im from malaysia btw.. I already download firmware for malaysia update. is it ok for me to download others country firmware update??
When will be the firmware available in the philippines
Just updated the post with three firmwares for Philippines. If you have non-carrier branded device, you can install the one for Indonesia, Malaysia, etc.
can i update the firmware without using a PC?
If an update is available from Samsung for your device and region and you have not rooted the device, you can update it via Kies or from Settings> About> Software Update.
thank you for the info. does the new firmware will affect the tabs performance or anything in particularh
i live in america. which firmware should i use
Is your device carrier unbranded?
Updates are meant for improving performance and adding features. aia have not heard about any negative effect of firmware update.
thank you.h
Does this work on the sgh-t869 as well?
No, it’ll not.
