Since you stated you hsve been trying hard for weeks.. This is the only method that I think will work for you:
Flash hardcore's k10h kernel.
Go to recovery.
Activate superuser (root).
Reboot.
Try reading the xda forum more moving forward.

You need to be on Gingerbread first before you can flash your phone with an ICS ROM. The following web site gives an easy step by step tutorial plus download links to get ICS on your SGS.

or get 2.3.x updated from kies , than root it and then do cyan9 , its best. worked like charm. just read the instructions and follow it.
Kies says am upto date with latest software can i get gingerbread without kies?

You can update your device till 2.3.6.
Unfortunatelly I only have a german page with the explanation.
Actual firmware you find here for example: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1570488
I think in this thread the users could help you.
Yes, using the Odin. Look here:
w*w*w.theandroidsoul.com/galaxy-s-gets-android-4-0-based-aokp-rom/
For install ICS, you need first install a GB 2.3.6 rooted, look here :
w*w*w.theandroidsoul.com/xxjvu/
end enjoy.
Atencion, take very carefull in this journey. Read all with very carefull.
Sorry for my poor english.
BEWARE: You are coming from Froyo - so you have to flash an android version that includes a socalled "bootloader" (some versions don't include that, as far as I know).
Reed carefully first before flashing.
Thanks guys I did it through Odin now on 4.0 whoooooo lol

How to safely root and install custom rom

Hello everyone,
I am new in rooting and installing custom rom in galaxy tab.
Here's my device:
gingerbread 2.3.3 build gingerbread DXJPI
kernel version: 2.6.35.7 [email protected]#2
baseband: P1000DXJPE
I would like to ask how to safely root and install custom rom?
I have this guide which I got from here but Im confused if I can use this to my tab.
http://www.teamovercome.net/p1000/?page_id=17
If that is compatible to my tab, how do I root before installing the rom or the GB-stock-safe_v5.zip and its component should root the device automatically?
thanks.
Yes, it is compatible with ur tab, mine is like yours. Come from dxjpi 2.3.3 too. If u wanna root, just install the overcome kernel with odin. After that, u have rooted ur tab. And u can install other custom rom.

Hi, does re-partition automatically selected once there is a pit file? is it safe to enable re-partition?
by the way once everything is installed, can i load other roms like cm9 or aokp?
thanks.

[Q] Help to update firmware for my gt-p1000

Hello, I have been reading for a long time now on threads all over this forum and there is simply too much for me to take in. So I thought maybe I could ask for help and one of you clever people could help me.
I would like to update the firmware on my tesco samsung tab gt-p1000 wifi and 3g to anything 4.+ oh and suitable for the uk. I'd like to still be able to make calls, use gps text and wifi general stuff. If some one in the know could suggest all the downloads I would need and point me towards a guide that suits those I would be very greatfull. p.s I think the tablet has been messed about with before as it has no serial number but I don't know.
Please don't just post ''read this thread'' I'm asking for some one how knows this information and just say ''use the modem LINK, this rom LINK, this software LINK and follow this guide LINK or similar.
From my research there are other people looking for the same build. If there is already one out there. link me up please.
I maybe looking for a complete odin build !
currently firmware is 2.2, baseband version 2.6.32.9 [email protected] #1 , FROYO.XWJJ3

Thanks for letting me know that.
So how will I do it?
You can follow my signature to overcome method.
Your have froyo, so you must root your ROM to enable you to check if you have protected bootloader.
And if you do, then to patch it.
Gingerbread doesn't have such issue.
But all that is in overcome PDF guide.
Once you have overcome kernel, it gave you cwm recovery.
With that you flash custom ROM.
