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.
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.

Got the same problem on my uk 3g xoom running 3.2... I think it may not like some nonstandard roms
I've got a rooted a Galaxy Tab 7", my ROM is HumberOS (P1000L - latin w/TV), Gingerbread 2.3.3 and my Netflix works great. I'm not sure, but I've seen in the Market's comment that the problem is the ROM.
So i got the 8.9 last week and am pretty happy so far. My main uses are internet surfing and hd videos from youtube and play store. However one of my only complaints is that this thing isnt the fastest. I upgraded to official ics when i first got the tab and its not bad but still id like to install Asop jellybean and overclock the tab to 1.2 or 1.4. However id hate to brick my tab which i see on here all the time. The only problem is i have no idea how to root, even after reading and searching for the past week. My question is could some one tell me or show me a link to show EXACTLY how to root to the newest asop jb from official ics without bricking and then tell me how to oc it? I am such a noob with this, I dont know what kernels or anything is. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Not sure how missed this thread in the list. It's stickied at the very top.

Good thing i didn't go a head and try to root. I have official ics installed and apparently you have to flash so,e cmw rom or something but i have no idea how to do that, i have searched the forums and all the instructions are just kind of bland and not real specific. Sad as it is, i am someone who needs exact instructions and explanations of how to specifically complete each instruction. Sorry that i am being a pain. I just bought thus tab on a amazon credit card and have not even, ade the first payment that is why I am so worried about bricking or messing up the tab. Thanks for any help

Hmm. I'd be careful recommending ROMs just yet. He hasn't mentioned which model of 8.9 Tab he has.
Given that he mentions he's already on ICS I'd assume he's probably got a wifi-only P7310. He doesn't mention any other radio types (3G, LTE, etc.).
@Wrebbs, what model 8.9 tab do you have?

I have the wifi only, 7310. Thanks for taking the time to help with this
I've tried various roms and liked cm10 very much. Had to flash stock 3.2 via odin to get rid of the garbled screen issue and decided to try update OTA to ics that worked and i'm running stock ics on my dutch 7310 now this works fairly well, so i am going to wait untill the battery drain issue is being fixed on cm10 and try again then

Not happy with the stock ICS version of the Tab? Did it upgrade over kies? Are you in the US? I am in Europe and have the 3G version. Have to use a ported rom from 7500 to get ICS.
The ICS I have runs really smooth! Price was good aswell. Strange that your TAB is slow...
Only problem I have is that Adobe Flash gives me some trouble in HD and on some sites.
I tried HC 3.2 Stock, CM10 JB 4.1, SafariKing ICS and ported ICS from 7500 v2 and honestly - If I had stock original ICS I think I would stay with it! The Jellybean ROMs still have issues. in Alpha Beta stages.
The Tracid rom mentioned might be the next rom I try, but still happy with the ICS rom I have. If it aint broke don't fix it... (Itchy though, flashing roms is fun.)
Take it from someone whos hard bricked before, take your time and do your homework. Make sure you know the rom is for your specific device. You're not going to see drastic speed increases even if oc'd. So take your time and re-read everything. Your going to have to flash a recovery first, cwm or twrp through odin. Again, make sure it's for your device. Then you can root or flash a rooted rom. Once again, make sure it's for your device.

Hi guys,
I have this question...
I have a Galaxy tab 8.9 (non-LTE). My current software is 3.2.
My country does not have the UPGRADE to 4.0 ICS...
Im thinking if i can install ICS software from other country?
and will it affect my 3g service?
There is an official ROM in the development section. It's called:
[ROM][ICS][OFFICIAL][P7300] P7300ZSLP7 stock+rooted+voice calls
If is the only 7300 official ICS ROM that exists as far as I know. I installed it on my 7300. Been running flawlessly. My 3G connectivity works great also, so long as you set up the APN for your carrier properly.
Good luck. Read the instructions carefully. Do not install any third party ROM unless you are rooted with an alternate recovery installed. Having a recovery like CWM or TWRP lets you get out of trouble when you screw things up.
