I updated my android ROM from 2.2 to 2.3.2 without doing my home work in investigating what should be checked before the flashing and now my Galaxy Tab 7'' is working with in the new version but giving error messages in the com.android.phone and I don't remember the original version of my firmware to get it back.
Pleas help!
Note: I am in Egypt and my old version used to support Arabic and my operator is Vodafone.

Thanks Howard for your reply,
I am trying to do that but the problem is that i knew that there are ROM versions for regions and Operators so I can't just get any ROM and flash it and I strongly believe that I flashed an European ROM.
So what I am trying to figure out now, how can I know the right version!

If the update came from OTA then you may have to investigate what the old bootloader was, flash it using odin and let the update happen again. There is a thread here that is about an Arabic tab, so do a search for that and there should be some instructions on flashing. I'm going to do the same and report back shortly.
EDIT: It's all right here bro. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1143539&highlight=arabic+vodaphone
Thanks alot for your help, i am downloading this ROM now and hope it will work
I tried the ROM you sent but it failed to install and now the Tab fail to open keeps giving me the screen of connection between the Tab and the computer and an exclamation mark between them..... did I break my tab?
Well i managed to install an older ROM 2.2 on my G Tab but i still want to install a newer version but this time i guess i will do further investigations before flashing my tab

Sorry I've been busy and I forget to subscribe to threads sometimes. Now that you have of back to stock and error free you can try for an official update. I am.assuomng you use KIES? If its available that's how you should get it. Homework is the way to go. Sorry I can't help you further.

The kies cannot determine my tab's farmware version so it cant update it so i will just wait to an official version and flash it manually

If still you're facing problems with this ROM, you can go for OVERCOME - Jupiter version. It's 2.3.3 and provide full support for Arabic.

Please provide more details so that we can help.
1. Why can't kies determine your firmware version? Try *#1234# on the dialer-what is the output?
2. There is no official firmware for manual updating. Only kies can provide "official" updates. The ones made available thru samfirmware or even the ones from here are not guaranteed to work. So just in case you upgrade manually and your tab gets bricked you cannot go to samsung and claim warranty.

OK. Hi again. I was looking at the files for the rooted .tar available for Sprint in the us amd the files are there for Arabic language which leads me to assume most of the roms might have it. I'll look into this more tonight but what I need you to do is provide a catlog that shows the fc. Apps for it are available on the market. Attach the text file with your response. Happy day.

First you should have posted this in the General section for help and assistance. Once you S-Off and install ClockworkMod during the rooting process, you will not be able to flash OTA updates from your carrier because you no longer have the stock HTC recovery installed.
You are better off installing one of the fully rooted GB Roms or check and see if your carrier's GB RUU (Rom update utility) is posted in the RUU thread and flash that.

And could you also if possible tell me when I'm supposed to install apps like titanium back-up etc during the process too.

I tried all of the things explained in the guide which is good, dont get me wrong but now I have a problem with Superoneclick... I check the drivers and this comes up:
Unhandled exception has occurred in your application. If you click Continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue. If you click Quit, the application will close immediately.
Not Found.
^ Any idea's to what can't be found and how to fix it?
Did you install PCC from sony ericsson first? Make sure you have the drivers installed properly. This includes putting the phone into USB Debugging mode and plugging the phone into your pc before running superoneclick..

Yes, there is a lot of reading to do, if you want to study it all.
I dont think SuperOneClick is meant for ICS, I will recommend you to look at this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2028946
And then I would suggest you try option 2 in "How to get root". You dont need to download ICS, you already have it.
Good luck.
