[Q] HELP WIth update!!!!!! - Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I recently purchased a T-mobile Samsung Galaxy Tab and I flashed to Euro version to enable phone fuction. I love my Tab and it's so awsome far beyond the ipad that I used to own. Additionally, my tab current version is froyo 2.2 and im wonderding that is it possible to update it to Gingerbread os and how????
MILLions Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hop over to the development sub-section of the Galaxy Tablet forums. There are quite a few options for GB firmware, especially on a GSM Tablet.

Best idea is to check out the overcome thread, they have instructions and all else needed to flash gb.

[Q] Vodafone Australia

Hey Guys.
It's been a little while since I played the custom ROM game. But I just got a Vodafone Galaxy Tab.
I'm not sure how I flash it, as the options for flashing are only for US version in ClockWorkOrange (I think that's what it's called).
Any help would be great.
I'm running an optus tab and have flashed the MCK ext4 kernel and the MCR r1 both seem to be very stable. But as far as i can tell any euro kernel and rom will work fine. I have also used the CF-root by chainfire which was good for keeping things relatively stock.

I'm with optus got a guide?
hey there, I have an optus galaxy tab - data plan etc.
just wondering if we need a specific rom and I suppose most importantly where to get started ? do I need clock work from rom manager or would that be a bad step?
cheers
Don't touch ROM Manager if you value your Tab. All recovery images are currently based on ClockWorkMod, but you'll want to flash it normally.
Look in the general forum for rooting/flashing guides.

Galaxy Tab 7 Wifi question

So I got a Galaxy Tab 7 wifi yesterday and am now reading all about how it's different and such from the 3G versions, so I got a few questions...
Has the wifi version been updated to 2.3? i couldn't find any way short of rooting...
which brings me to my next question, how can I root it and what ROM's are usable on it? I've been reading conflicting posts around the net about how to root it and have seen a lot of ROM's say not for the wifi version.
Are there any ROM's (assuming my above question was answered) that allow for bluetooth HID? Couldn't believe they locked this out...
Last question is...is there a way to use the Samsung stuff (like the media hub, social hub, and samsung apps store) with a different ROM?
thanks! there's so much conflicting info between the versions it's confusing!
From what I have found, you can root it with oneclicksuperroot but there aren't really any roms for it.

You can root it with z4root too, easy and quick.

[Q] trying to do a backup from ROM manager.

When the Galaxy tab reboots when trying to do anything from rom manager I get this screen. Its rooted with stock ROM. What does this screen mean? And how can I fix it?
Thank you in advance.

can you mention which stock rom you have , what is your galaxy tab model ...
and why in earth someone use ROM manager it's not for the galaxy TAB ....
Sorry its Verizon galaxy tab sch-1800
Firmware 2.2
Kernel 2.6.32.9
Build sch-1800.ec02
Its been rooted. Initially with z24root then re-rooted using superoneclick.
I got cm7 on my t-bolt as a daily driver so now its time to start getting my tab loaded up with some fun stuff.
Thank you for any help

Rom manager was not meant for the tab as is. You need to flash a proper recovery first.

confused
UHG! I am so confused, ok, gonna do more reading... there are just so many differences in tabs and roms and kernels and bootloaders and flashes and ... ok, gonna try and figure it out.
at least i will stop spinning my wheels with rom manager... I guess I was confused because it has the option to flash clockworkmod recovery for my specific device Galaxy Tab - Verizon.
off to do some better research... throw a link or two at me if you feel so enticed as to throwing something

[Q] Galaxy Tab Wifi rooting and flashing

my coworker just got a gtab wifi only, ive rooted a bunch of phones before but not this device yet. which roms will i be able to flash on this device?
thanks in advance.
It would seem at the moment no big devs are putting any custom roms out for the wifi only tab (GT P 1010).
There is one rom available but to my understanding its only a stock rom with some bloatware removed and extra language support. (Thread in tab development)
I myself have had the GT P 1010 for almost a month now, rooted with Z4, one click lag fixed but still running stock nastiness. I have posted up here about the possibility of getting a CWM running on our tabs, first priority for me personally, but no one seems to have any answers?
Oh and if my sig still says that its bricked, one word, ODIN. Bloody life saver.

I think he's referring to the Sprint Stock Gingerbread update/rom which i've heard does in fact work on the wifi only tab. There is a rooted version of it available as well. Check the Development thread and you'll find it.
Really!!!!! A gingerbread rom that will work on the wifi only tab?
I was under the impression that no roms designed for the GSM tab would work on the wifi tabs? Different hardware and supposedly a different processor?
Not that I'm doubting you but where did you get your source that it will work on the wifi only tab?
TIA.

Be very careful. I hard-bricked mine when trying to flash gingerbread on 1010. DONT DO IT, if its not stated it works with 1010

[Q] Is there a SCH-I800 ICS ROM?

I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab (Verzion SCH-I800). I have been searching the forums and Google for an ICS ROM to flash but I am not sure if the ones I have found are for the SCH-I800 specifically. I assume that having one for that particular model number is important? I see tons for the p1000, etc. The few I have stumbled across all had bad or dead links. Anyone have or know of a good thread for a ICS ROM with working links?
If there is nothing for ICS, does any one have a link to the best way to Flash this back to stock (root or not rooted makes no difference to me)?
Thank you in advance for all of your help!

I have the JB/CM10 on my Verizon tab and love it.
What version of baseband are you running? I really like the ICS and JB on my Galaxy Tab (Verizon) but my 3g connection keeps dropping out and not recovering. Before I left stock in the dust I was not having the problems.
