Is this confirmed working guys?
Anyone successfully installed 3.0 on GT-P1000? I need youtube tutorial !!!
On PC and Mac, no trouble to push the Heimdall at all. but for Ubuntu, I should go through the trouble of reloading the service udev in the Heimdall’s makefile so it can run smoothly.
Thought you should know.
Anyone had done this already?
Please comment.
I can’t wait to try this new version…
Thanks,
Fabian
