Hi all,
sorry for my noob question but i would like to know, as a first time flasher, what ROM i should flash?
I have a P1000 Australian tab, rooted but thats it.
I would like something that runs faster, smoother and with as few bugs as possible.
With so many options out there i was wondering if people could post there experiences with the different ROMS available through this forum to help me decide which one to try first.
I have some experience in jailbreaking (iphones) hacking the motorola Razor and a few other phones over the years.
Thanks all for your input.
I have a Aussie telatra tab. I'm using overcome, its the best rom at the moment. Give it a try
swyped from a galaxy far far away...
Thanks for the fast reply! just checked out the overcome video, looks great bout to give it a crack.
Please post in the proper section.
Thanks.

+1 on the proper section comment. This section needs a mod.
Any Euro ROM will work on Aussie shipped Tabs. I have an Aussie Optus Tab and use Roto JMIv2, love it.

Hi, I am new with my Samsung Galaxy Tab 7'' 3G+Wifi, with 2.3.3. What do you recommend to me: keep this one, Overcome, or Honeycomb alpha. Please, anyone knows what is the different between CDMA and GSM ROMs? Thanks!

welcome to the hood brother in tab ..
your 1st welcome will be . pls post any thread endup with "?" "Q" in the Q|A section and do not post anything in the DEV section only if you plan to create ROM , Kernel
Welcome aboard.
Also state what carrier you have.
GSM is ATT TMOUS
Sprint, Veriz , Boost are CDMA
I love the Overcome rom, works well for what I want.
Thanks for the answers. My carrier is Orange, from Spain, but I don't know if it helps. I would like to flash Overcome but I don't know how begin. I have experience with Nexus One and Hero, but this seems very different.
Overcome is pretty stable compared to honeycomb. Try it first!

GSM phones use sim cards, CDMA need to be activated on the network and can't be transferred to another carrier easily if at all.
Don't know much about the CDMA as Australia got rid of CDMA a few years ago now...
GSM tabs have a larger choice of roms and kernals to try while the CDMA brothers and sister seem fairly restricted in what they can flash. They, however seem to be ahead when it comes to flashing Honeycomb...
ATM Honeycomb is an Alpha buiild, VERY buggy and not really usable if you need your tab in real life, Gingerbread on the other hand has been fairly stable for a while now. Up to you what you want to put on but before you do, READ the instructions on using ODIN or Heimdall, there are guides here.
Check if you're bootloaders are locked here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=888071 Before flashing
and make sure you take it slow, step by step and DON'T skip ahead when flashing.
Happy hunting for that perfect rom ( please don't ask what people think as Its really a personal choice and the threads have more than enough info for you to make a choice).
Cheers...
I recently got a new Samsung Galaxy Tab (GT-P1000) in India and i took back to U.S. After intense researching i finally was able to root it. Now I found a whole new array of questions and problems.
Here they are:
1. I cant seem to overclock it even with SetPU
2. I have no idea what ROMs will work on my model.
3. I have no idea what ODIN is and where i can get it.
4.On ROM Manager when i try to download the clockwork recovery mod thing i dont see my model. I only see sprint,verizon, and t-mobile models.
5. How do i upgrade my model to gingerbread.
6. How do i use ROM Manager.
7. My tab seems to be slow do you guys have any solution to make i lightning speed.
I am sorry i have repeated previously answered questions but when i check the forums it is difficult to find answers and guides for my specific model.
I will update if i have anymore questions.

New Question: What is the best ROM for the Samsung Galaxy Tab[GSM] that is super fast, easy to use, easy to install, highly customizable(looks wise), and looks good.
If you guys can show me a list of the benefits and disavantages of each ROM then that would be great.
Challenge accepted!
1. You probably have the GSM model. Without a modded kernel, you probably won't be able to overclock it. Why do you want to do that anyway, at this point?
2. All ROMs that have [GSM] specified in the thread name, except maybe N/L ones.
3. Don't worry about Odin. ROM threads have how-to's. Start off by reading the Overcome threads. Read carefully the first few posts.
4. Don't worry about that.
5. Read the Overcome thread. Use the ROM, flash it, there you go.
6. You don't need to use it yet. After you read the Overcome documentation, you will understand.
7. Appreciate your device. Lightning fast for Samsung may not be the same thing to you. Overcome, MIUI, BOCA and CM7 are all very powerful ROMs. Check them out.
PS: Thanks for posting in the right forum!
Cheers,
C.

I have taken in every word and it has helped me take off a load of questions. I still have one question that might contradict your reply. I have read the the GSM ROM threads and gingerbread threads and they all say something about flashing it on your system with odin. I really confused, i am sorry if my newbieness is annoying but i just want to make my tab awesome ondemand.
The overcome thread has links to ODIN and their guide on how to upgrade to gingerbread (download it as its VERY useful when 1st starting). Before doing anything though find out what your stock rom is and see if you can find it, will be helpful if something goes wrong with the flash, also check what radio you have now (again good tohave a copy if you want to revert to stock for warranty). There's a heap of information (posted in overcomes thread again, Thank you overcome) that will tell you what radio (modem.bin) you will need. Overcomes thread will also supply the p1000_mr.pit file and the stock gingerbread rom that you need before flashing to a lot of other roms.
Happy flashing and remember, reading the steps, not skipping ahead and asking if you're not sure of something is always a good thing...
Cheers...

Go to the Galaxy Tab Dev Thread. The Overcome Kratos thread is always on the first page, because it's so popular.
Before you load any ROM, make sure you copy your existing ROM, and verify it, so that you can restore if needed. I believe Roto Backup does this.
I didn't back up my stock ROM and now I don't have a way to get back to Stock. But the Overcome Kratos ROM is good.

By the way, none of the links for the installation on the Overcome KRATOs thread works. Also when i go to their website and when i click on 7 inch it says database error.
I have tried numerous roms with this tab since I have bought it, all 4.0+.
I didn't try any Gingerbread roms much, and flashed cm9 almost as soon as I bought it.
No rom remains stable without force closing every app upon launching for more than a week. Even the stable 9.1.0 CM9.
Is this a frequent problem with ICS/JB? I had the same problem with a family member's Ainol Novo Elf II, which i just shipped back for returns because of it.
Or is this problem hardware related, being that no rom will work?
Also I tried to flash Galaxy Cubed from the latest CM10, but it gave me an error.
Is there a file to restock this tablet? Such as an sbf file like some phones use?
Please don't flame me for not researching, because I tried with google, but it left a lot to be desired, and much of the info is now outdated.
Thank You for your help in advance!!
you can try EF17 stock rooted rom from this one.

Thank You! I will try that tomorrow. My tab is Verizon CDMA, that shouldn't make a difference even though that says sprint correct?
should not matter, but actually I don't have a CDMA device.
Only so far seems like that thread has the working stock rom for CDMA.
I guess you can use it just to restock, put CWM, then you can put Galaxy Cubed
Thread moved. Please post in the correct section in future.
Thanks

Why are there so many orphaned versions of this tablet? I just want to put a custom rom on this thing.
I have a Galaxy tab (T-Mobile sgh-t849) is there any cm version work for that?
I see some folks mention Overcome. Any suggestions on where to start as far as recovery and I might be able to go from there. Also, what versions of what ROMs can be installed on mine? I have yet to see anything related to the mentioned model.
NVM, I'll post this in Q&A so it doesn't clutter the dev thread
T849 is exactly like a P1000.
Whatever you read about P1000 applies to you.
