My first root and custom room. Samsung GT P1000 - Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys.
I have just got my used samsung galaxy tab p1000 to day.
I am very happy with my choice. I am going to use this in
my car.
Anyway i want to root this and try some custom rom for this.
I have downloaded this program: SuperOneClickv2.3.3-ShortFuse
and i have had 1 connect to samsug kies with it. So i know that
i have the right drivers for windows 7 64 bit. Is this the right software to
root this unnit with?
I have stock android 2.3.3 version (Gingerbread) on now. Do i need to
flash new bootloader? I did read that this was not for Gingerbread but just
for froyo? Is that true?
The reason i am asking all this questions, is because i have already hardbricked
2 samsung galaxy S phones already with my stupidness. So i am thankfull for all help i can get.
I am using Cyanogenmod 7 for my LG optimus 2x at the moment, and i must say i love it. Is there a stable version of this for my tab?
Her is the Tab spec:

}
When it comes to the overcome rom. I cant see the pictures on the overcome guide on their site.
So i cant see how to setup odin correctly.
Thankyou for your help.
Regards Morten

Here's a cached image of the overcome guide.

I think there's a cm 7.2 version for the GT but I haven't tried it. The latest one is CM9 which is still in the beta phase so it still has some bugs and it's not quite suited for daily use. I'd suggest the overcome rom first and go from there once CM9/AOKP get the major bugs taken care of.

Thanks. I am now using overcome rom. Pretty good rom.
I could not find the cyanogenmod 7.2 on their website. Is this just
a Beta version?

Here's the thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=931857&highlight=cyanogen
But if you really want to try a CyanogenMod then I suggest going straight to 9. The install process for cm7 is a lot more complicated than for cm9 and if I'm not mistaken they've stopped updating it.

[Q] Kies crashed Galaxy S update now bricked !!HELP!!

Hi.
I tried updating my Samsung Galaxy S to the latest firmware using Kies (all official), as it was updating i got this message: "disconnect the cable, then battery, then replace battery and turn on and then try again"
So i followed the given steps and i get this screen:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I searched on this forum and found a thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1134975) which i followed and lead me to this screen:
http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-h9VbztnoEqs/TamSqYdBRyI/AAAAAAAAAEs/oxp7FUo5WRs/s1600/samsung-galaxy-s-download-mode.jpg
Only problem is, what should i do after this? It's on that screen. I dont want to root it (yet...), but want to update it to its latest firmware.
Kies it probably the worst, misguided software i've ever used.
Can you give a link to the official latest firmware, so i can install on to the phone.
Thanks
You could also try "emergency recovery" or something like that from the Kies. Our use Odin/Heimdall to flash stock rom. Don't worry you'll get your phone back up and running

I tried Emergency Recovery on Kies, nothing was coming up, so that was a fail...
Can someone please link me to a good tutorial to Install a stock rom on to my phone please?
Thanks.
Edit:
I've found this Tutorial, should i refer to it for my situation?
Edit 2:
Can some one link to a ROM that i can use for "[GUIDE] Flash/Install/Update to Gingerbread 2.3.4 to I9000" as the current one linked on the thread is dead.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1139050
[GUIDE] Flash/Install/Update to Gingerbread 2.3.4 to I9000: Detailed guide for n00bs
Use jvu, one of the latest official:
http://hotfile.com/dl/140301534/be8872c/I9000XXJVU_I9000OXAJVU_OXA.rar.html
No need to put anything to your sdcard as you dont have cwm.
Read the guide, get odin and 512 pit
Use search.

Thanks for the links!
I have looked everywhere and i cannot find the 512.pit, only one i found had a dead link.
Can you link me to a working link please?
Thanks
Edit 2:
Hey, nevermind, i manage to find the link and download.
I've installed the firmware it is 2.3.6! So happy
Thanks a million!

[Root] Help, can't root v20c

Posting on behalf of a friend. Here goes:
0) Yes, we've read http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1487105
1) Stuck on V20C. The official LG update utility says this is the most up-to-date version.
2) Have tried http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1442588
3) Have tried http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1480392
4) Have tried method on Cyanogenmod wiki.
Nothing worked. Is there a method that's confirmed to work for V20C out there, or have we just screwed up something? Attempting to eventually install Cyanogenmod.

indeed you can't downgrade using LG updater.. no problem, friend, here's your solution..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1448803
1. download the v10a firmware
2. install the firmware using SmartFlash Tool
3. root the v10a using blackjack
4. install ROM manager, and from there, install CWM
5. you can use the CWM recovery to install another custom ROM
Go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1566532 by the end of it you'll have your version ready to flash and root at your will

Ah, thank you very much.
We weren't aware that the methods for V20C and other V20 firmwares were interchangeable - after several failed attempts and several more perusals through XDA we were beginning to suspect that V20C was unrootable as nobody seemed to mention this version.
Glad we were wrong, now happily running CM7. Phone is reportedly much faster and responsive now. Thanks for the help!

The Wifi problem might be just a problem on your phone. Cause I flashed this rom and my wifi was working just fine. Try reflashing!
@WiFi: I'm using version 2.1 of DroidAce and WiFi work without any issues.
Maybe try flashing 2.1 instead of that 2.0 you're using and see fi the error persists.

Unusual Note

A friend of mine sent me this image, he has had his Note for some time now and only just recently got an update to 4.0.4 .He bought the note without a carrier so there is nothing extra in it.
However, he's never been able to root the thing.
I have used this site before, ages ago with my pocket PC's and more recently for my HTC Sensation.
I replaced my kernal for a 1.5Ghz overclocked version with mikes ics rom and rooted, and the phone has just been awesome. However a few months back when I did some digging for his note I was unable to find anything on it, and now that its updated I thought i'd give it another shot. However im not sure if the information I need is in the image he sent.

oh, blah, How could i of missed that. Ok thankyou
Question, I assume I want the
N7000ZSLPM---4.0.4/12.07.18-N7000OZSLPM
Is this correct? I note there is nothing that matches the Baseband number.
Also, Honk kong or Taiwan? It was purchased in Australia.
I found my HTC less confusing, even though they are more work
