[Q] Japanese Docomo Galaxy Tab - I want a custom rom - Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I am trying to find a guide to install a custom rom to my Japanese docomo Galaxy tab .
I'm living in Japan so I don't need to unlock it etc, I just want to install a rom.
I got as far as flashing but kernels were not listed for my device.
It's doing my bloody head in!
Hope someone can point me in the right direction or list the things I have not written and slap me.
cheers

I have a samsung galaxy gt-1900 s locked to Orange. I wish to debrand it and get it unlocked. It's firmware is PDA:JP8/PHONE:JP3/CSC:JP8(ORA) according to Kries.The phone tells me firmware 2.2.
This is my first android phone and the first time even thinking about doing anything like this. However if there is someone out there who could or would kindly point me in the right direction I would be grateful. Thanks in anticipation. P.

Thanks for the reply but the post didn't seem to help, or I'm being obtuse.P.
Hi man, first to unlock you can go to samfirmware and pay about 18dollars for the unlock codes like many of us.
Second, in samfirmware are all the stock roms up to date and the tutorials on how to do it, or choose a custom rom in this forum and give it a try, many of us are usig darky's, he has all the instructions for a new install, its easy to do, if u have any problems just say something.

[Q] What should i do first ?

Hello.
My Galaxy Tab arrives tomorow and i read here at XDA that the stock rom isn`t that good as some Rom`s cocked here.
So i`m new to this.
Can someone help me with a few links and steps of what shoud i do to try XDA rom`s?
I`ve seen that it`s 1st post on development "How to root" but what are the steps.
I`m mean whats the next step after root and if i`m not wrong i`ve seenthat you coud flash roms via recovery and via a program Odin. Can you give me a link on how to in both cases ?
Thank you very much and hope in good roms for Galaxy Tab

How about a little more info: What kind of tab is it? 7" 8.9" 10.1"? GSM or CDMA. Unbranded wifi only? Or carrier fixed like T mobile or AT&T?
Also before rooting or flashing you need to know if your tab has a locked bootloader or not. If it is you need to apply a certain patch.
Give us some info and links will be on the way.

I`ve received my Galaxy Tab today and i`m playing with it but it`s run very smooth, very quickly ? How it`s therom`s cockedhere ? Is it realy necesare to root it?
Well the choice of going custom or remaining on stock ROM is totally up to the user. IF you feel fullfilled by your device. then no need for a custom ROM otherwise use it.

[Q] Confused about updating to Gingerbread

I'm in the USA with an AT&T version of the Tab. Am I able to upgrade to Gingerbread manually? If yes, can someone point me in the right direction to the best/easiest way to upgrade? FYI: I don't have any custom ROMs installed and have never really hacked my Tab beyond installing a new launcher.

Go here. The attachment in the first post will walk you through the process. Read it 3 times over before you do anything just to make sure you know what you are doing. Other than that, it's pretty easy and worth the upgrade.
And if slimdizzy's thread don't float yer boat then try this one - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1078622
Its a thread that takes you by the hand and holds it for every step (thankyou Jacktackle)... It"s a good guide if you were like me and a TOTAL noob at flashing the GT...
Cheers...
You may need the modem.bin file for your brand of GT. That can be found in the link slimdizzy gave you. Just read through the modems, you'll find the right one...

First, find a recovery, cwm or twrp, for your device. Flash that with Odin. Then find a rom for your device. Put that on your sd card. With your recovery, cwm or twrp, flash it. I have an i957 so don't know what's available for the 7320. I think there is limited support for the 7320 but look in the development forum.

Tnx,i found everything already here for flashing all files and procedure to make my tab root and etc...but fu..ing bodering me is branded tab and locked sim card on my provider..and i dont know can i change other stock rom of sweden or even other provider rom to use..so far i found only one custom rom for 7320 but no explaination for using to branded tab only for unlocked tabs..i dont want bricked device..otherwise i will wait for how long i dont know fo update of my lazy provider to bring 4.04...
Hello,finally after cople hours of taking brave i started to do on my own risk everything and results are posititve.so i do exacly like imf ound here on forum and flased custom recovry and then flashed custom rom arciis and everything was fine for me..so conclusion is that you can even with branded tab make this becuse your modem and status of provider will not change and everything will work..threat can be closed and i hope for others that my scares will help for others with same problem...
