hi

Hi too.

:)

This is what I've found meanwhile...

Z300FXXU0AOI2... found this only in youtube Video...

 

Z300F is not my device... user tried few experiments after malfunction...

This device is not THOR enabled...

Download Mode is for ODIN...

So TM1 Firmware failed...

 

How to repair SM-Z300F ?

 

Thanx in advance.

Hi. Could you explain in more detail?

As far as I knew TM1 and Z300F are totally different HW. Which problem are you trying to resolve?

Regards,

Peter Wegner

Thanx.

 

I'm asking for someone else.

He did "experiments" after malfunction... because Z300F Firmware seems not available.

 

Actual status is:

Could not do normal boot

 

After he forced TM1 Wayland ... from prerelease folder...

Flash was successfully... but Z300F not start with TM1 Wayland...

 

So only sboot.bin is alive from Z300F... all other files are wrong now...

 

Best Regards

Hi. 

My understanding is like this. TM1 is reference device. Thus generally developer can reflash it and get firmware from dev site. However, in case of Z300F, it is commercial device. Thus as far as I understood firmware for Z300F is not available in public.

Regards,

Peter Wegner

Thanx for feedback.

Could be you are right...

I thought Z300F is test/reference for Europe... so it is more sample .. pre commercial.

We will see what happens after MWC...

 

Best regards

Peter Wegner

Any kind of news about this device?

Is SM-Z300F alive?

Maybe ready for launch?

Or maybe available for Developers from Europe?

 

Meanwhile I have found Firmware:

AP_Z300FXXU1AOK9_usr.tar.md5
BL_Z300FXXU1AOK9_usr.tar.md5
CP_Z300FXXU1AOK7_REV00_CL2029786_QB4212485.tar.md5
CSC_Z300FOXE1AOK9_usr.tar.md5

 

Is this the latest Firmware?

As far I know, AP_Z300FXXU1AOK9 is the latest firmware and supposed to be launched for Russian B2B market. 

But for B2C market, its not lanuched yet (I could not find anyting online or heard anything).

Only a hint => http://www.tizenexperts.com/2016/01/samsung-launching-tizen-z3-in-russia-other-europe-countries-early-2016/

My guess, it will be commercially available in Russia soon (Q2) and may be rest of the Europe later on (Q3).

 

 

Peter Wegner

Preorder is few days old...

Hello everyone!

I have SM300F from russian Linuxcenter.ru

it has tizen 2.4.0.2 Z300FXXU1AOK9

and it says Device status -> Official, KNOX Tizen version->KNOX 1.0.0, standard SDK 1.0.0, SE for tizen 1.0.0 (whatever it means).

There are some issues with the device, but it works good, more or less.

It has issues withe the Wi-Fi access point - when it is on, battery power comes out like Niagara waterfall. I watched Youtube video for almost 2 hours, the phone got real hot and battery died from 70% down to 5%. From 5% to 0% it came in 1 minute or less, really immediately.

Sometimes GSM network gets lost, widgets fet lost from pages voluntarily. There ARE issues. They can be solved i believe if i get in touch with the developers.

But, after more than 1 week of using the device, I want to use it more and more. I started to learn Tizen SDK, i feel this thing is quite suitable for industry automation which i work for. I'd like to make something like svg scada client or ldap-syncronized (active directory) contacts etc.

For now I lack only telegram messenger, GPS things like geotracker etc. Most of all works nice from the internet browser - i used HereMaps, Bank client and they work ok. 

Screen widgets are hell to use, actually they live by themselves and behave strangely.

The main drawback is the battery. Samsung says it can work for ages, but it's a fake, it really does NOT. I can prove it.

Best regards!

 

Peter Wegner

Thank you very much for feedback.

 

Z300FXXU1AOK9 sounds old...

I thought BPD4 is also for SM-Z300F available... with Tizen 2.4.0.3...

 

Best Regards

Peter Wegner

Z300FXXU1AOK9 is from 2015...

Z300FXXU1BPD4 is posted few months ago as Tizen 2.4.0.3 ...

These are really Retail Devices?

 

Not Samples... with Not for Sale Labels?

 

Best Regards

Evgeny Stepanov

What you mean by "not for sale labels"? I've bought it at the linuxcenter internet shop (you posted the link before - 

you have posted the link at linuxcemter preorder of Z3 (this forum doesm't allow me to include external link here - wtf, by the way?)

So I'm this very lucky owner :-)

Something wrong? They gave me and piece of shit? Tha is why my battery is crazy? I have to put them to jail? LOL. That doesn't work in Russia. And i'm happy with what i've bought. So everything is ok i think!

 

Peter Wegner

Are you able to update Firmware?

 

Settings ---> About device ---> Software update

 

Only to be sure, That 2015 Firmware is not latest.

 

Yes, congratulation and have fun with SM-Z300F.

Thanx for posting.

Best Regards

 

Evgeny Stepanov

Nope! No Software update item under Settings->About device

f*k!

Peter Wegner

Sorry, I have no device nor any usefull feedback about this device nor access to Firmware...

:(

Old User Manual is still online...

 

NO idea if you only got SM-Z300F in "Retail Box" with Manuals... or other Paper/Docs... or CD or any kind of accessory... Headset...

 

Is for instance Kies 3 or Smart Switch Tool able to detect your device and maybe find Update...

 

No idea if other Tools required...

 

I really know nearly nothing about this device... all infos are sooo top secret as it seems...

CSC_Z300FOXE1AOK9_usr.tar.md5

 

These are the only Firmware files leaked...

And I was not able to download them as only on paid site...

 

So I have really ZERO ideas what is really installed on SM-Z300F... If Tizen Store App is inside... like known from SM-Z300H, SM-Z130H, SM-Z200F and Y...

 

Or Top Secret Special Store...  only for biz...

 

Only rumors...

:(

 

Best Regards

Evgeny Stepanov

LOL! Yes, only rumors :-)

Younghoon Min

As I know, Z300F is for Russia B2B/B2G business.

Therefore we don't get it at any retail shop.

Peter Wegner

Still no luck to find downloadable Firmware...

 

Today I saw this, no idea how long allready online:

Z300FXXU1AOK9 source

http://opensource.samsung.com/reception/receptionSub.do?method=sub&sub=F&searchValue=SM-Z

 

Maybe someone need for study some source... for SM-Z300F...

 

My latest info about Firmware status... is:

Tizen Version 2.4.0.3:

Z300FXXU1BPF3

No idea if latest... and no idea where available, if not preinstalled.

 

Only as info.
