[Q] What ROM should i flash - Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
sorry for my noob question but i would like to know, as a first time flasher, what ROM i should flash?
I have a P1000 Australian tab, rooted but thats it.
I would like something that runs faster, smoother and with as few bugs as possible.
With so many options out there i was wondering if people could post there experiences with the different ROMS available through this forum to help me decide which one to try first.
I have some experience in jailbreaking (iphones) hacking the motorola Razor and a few other phones over the years.
Thanks all for your input.

I have a Aussie telatra tab. I'm using overcome, its the best rom at the moment. Give it a try
swyped from a galaxy far far away...

Thanks for the fast reply! just checked out the overcome video, looks great bout to give it a crack.

Please post in the proper section.
Thanks.

+1 on the proper section comment. This section needs a mod.
Any Euro ROM will work on Aussie shipped Tabs. I have an Aussie Optus Tab and use Roto JMIv2, love it.

[Q] what's last firmware?

Hello, I'm kinda new to the Galaxy Tab. Just a quick question: what's last firmware release for the Tab? I've actually installed JM6 from samfirmware.
Tux in advance for your answers.

There are lots of firmware ROMs on this site.
I am currently using the Overcome kernel and v1.4.0 ROM which was only released in the last couple of days. You can check itout here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=932082
All the best.
for official firmware http://www.samfirmware.com/WEBPROTECT-p1000.htm have a look, but carefully because has a protected bootloader !
Thank you to both of you for the tips.
I've been thinking about giving Overcome a try, perhaps the time has come.
Cheers,
William

Any help is appreciated
Sorry, but I can hardly get what you mean. There is a good howto about installing Overcome linked in the 1st post of the thread. I just used that one and everything worked as a charm.

Flashing to an unoffical firmware from an official one will wipe ALL your data. Back up what you need. You're not losing anything useful.
As suggested by maddler, read the HOWTO that is linked from in the 1st post of the Overcome thread and it'll tell you what you need. It helps to read the instructions rather than just looking for download links.

Samsung GT-P1000

Hi everyone
Please i know that somewhere in this web of forums their must be a wise and helpfull way of upgrading the samsung galaxy tap p1000 to either an cynogenmod or to honeycomb/icecreamsandwitch
If look around for a while now and im unable to find any straight forward explanation in doing so
So sorry for asking this question yet again
Does anyone know how to do such upgrade or to explain such process in detail or even direct me to such forum and probably most important if such upgrade is available
I am having issues with my tab,mostly it crashing or sometimes freezes for a while. Bought it about 3months ago with gingerbread preinstalled by samsung
I know that with my htc wildfire by rooting it and installing cynogenmod it helped it not crash and also improved with possibilities and speed
I want to do the same with my gt-p1000 but its still under warranty so want to be sure there is a root and mod upgrade that works so that i wont loose my warranty for incase.
Please if someone could advise
Thanks a lot

AFAIK rooting in any form voids your warranty. Your best bet is to wait until the warranty expires
but IMHO rooting is worth it.
Hope I helped you. If I did,press the thanks button!
Thnx for the reply
I know rooting voids the warranty and totaly agree its well worth it,but my concern is that there are so many treads on how to it for the gt-p1000 but which one of them are solid and will work without defects?
Do you maybe know if there is any tread that explains the process in full?
Thnx again

The best rom that I ever use for my Gtab P1000 is Overcome ROM (latest version is 4.1.0), I'm already try other ROM like MIUI, BOCA, etc but this overcome have 99% stable with no bug. Thread is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1317384
If you want to unroot just use adb shell or remove su.apk from /system/app folder using root explorer.
Awesome,thnx alot will give it a shot
Is it still on the gingerbread os?
And is there any limitations like things not working (example camera gprs ex?)
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App
Yes,it is on Gingerbread (Overcome 4.1.0 has android 2.3.6 ).Everything is working in this from.don't forget to flash the modem if you use your tab for phone calls,though doing this isn't compulsory
Hit the thanks button if I helped you!!
Which one of the posts in the tread explains the correct way of rooting and installing overcome?
Sorry im a noob at this and reading through the forum is a bit confusing
Just wish someone would post a step by step process and if needed additional flashes required
Thnx again for your support
Looking forward to upgrading my tab

Back in the day I rooted my GT-P1000 with super one click, this was like 1 year and a half ago.
As for the best ROM to use, personally I am using CM9 at the moment which is ICS based. But it is not very newbie friendly atm and has a lot of bugs still being worked on (camera does not work for example).
I would recommend BOCA RC1, it's fast and stable and based on gingerbread CM7. Gives a lot of customizations and is tablet oriented.
But if you want to keep the look and feel of stock ROM, Overcome is the best bet.
Boca RC1
Overcome

Hi.
I'm looking to update my P1000. It already has an older version of Overcome which has always worked for me. I checked out the link. The instructions link is broken. Can anyone point me to upgrade instruction using CWM?

Pretty sure you can do this as it uses cwm to flash. You will have to wipe though so you could just go direct to Sapir. It has the odd bug but is generally pretty good.

Thanks. I was finally able to find all the files for Overcome 4.1.0 including the instructions on another thread. I haven't proceeded yet. Still reading and researching as I do not find them very clear. My fault as I don't have much experience with android. Hoping I can upgrade to 4.1.0 with only CWM but still not sure.

So you make thread for opinion? If you flashd 200 roms, then We should ask you what is best rom. Com on! Just read the posts in different rom threads. How can you tell what is best rom with only two ore three posts than are stupid to even answer to this thread. I think i am going to make a thread to find out what the most weird thread here in development is. Lol

Use Darky Rom. Overclocking to 1.704 but be careful there. I overclock to 1.600. Otherwise Darky 3.1 has a nice ICS theme. Really smooth and battery life way better. Don't forget to backup first.

Samsung GALAXY Tab 10.1v P7100

Hi guys, this is my device, already as a XDA rom :good:
Any advice to update/upgrade?
Another question, maybe a stupid one. I've bought the tables with the xda rom as you can see in the image, there's no dialer to make a call.
Is this normal? I know this is a tablet, not a phone, but ...
Thank you for your support.

It's a tablet not a phone soe yes no dialer.
And as for upgrading try Rs roms, or the CM9 nightly.
While we are waiting on official 4.0.4 just have fun with it.

I use CM9 experimental from Droid basement. It is quite stable and everything works for most people (including the phone!).

Lol, Yes. This one too. But there's a lot to learn.
I've read somewhere that tablets don't make phone calls, that's why I'm confuse now.
It can be a bit confusing trying to keep track of all the developments on the Galaxy tab.
Right now the latest experimental CM9 rom has the ability (when used with the right modem) to make calls.
You have said that you are a bit worried about using beta stuff so it might not be for you - if you want the latest official build then go back to the stock 3.0.1 and follow the official upgrades. You should end up with the latest official ICS ...
Otherwise the only alternative is to put up with the inconvenience associated with development and learn quick to have the leading edge options.
If you are interested then my advice is to go with the experimental CM9 rom and load the I9100XXLQ3 modem. The experimental ROM has the voice_enable functionality built in.
