[Q] ICS for my Galaxy Tab

Hi all,
I own a Galaxy Tab P1000 bought in UK and not sim locked.
I bought it in Carphone Warehouse.
Now I wonder if I can install ICS on my Tab.
I know nothing about kernels in general so please do not come up with install this kernel, that kernel.
I have a stock 2.3.3 ROM updated via Kies and I rooted it.
I just want to keep all my features working on my Tab (camera, data, voice and so on) after the upgrade so I am not interested if some stuff is not working.
If these requirements are met I wish you could come up with an upgrade procedure for dummies with the link to all files needed.
Again I know nothing about kernels so please try to explain what I am gonna do.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Federico.

Well, too bad.
Samsung won't make ICS for this tab, so no L
kies update for you.
And yeah, we all will tell you to install a kernel+cwm to flash it.
And no spoon feeding either...
Go to overcome site
Http://www.teamovercome.net
Read the guide,
Missing pictures can be seen here.

Follow the picture step by step.
Basically to restock:
Download GB-stock-safe-v5.zip, unzip it and and flash with ODIN according to the guide.
Stop there and you will have Gingerbread JQ1
You can continue with the rest, and you will get Overcome 4.1 and you won't regret.
From there you can then try AOKP or CM9, all requires you to have Overcome Kernel with its CWM recovery to flash.
Links are easy to find in their individual thread.
Come back here after you have overcome rom, come back here and I am willing to guide you further.

The 2 roms you are talking about have all features working?

Camera, data, voice call
Yes, both cm9 and AOKP can do that.

I am reading some information. It looks like there are stability problems with custom roms. Endless loops with one. Wifi disconnecting on the other. When I was using a sony ericsson x10 I used to install custom roms. Just all had bugs and I always went back to stock. Thing is that the tab is more complicated and I am not willing to brick it either.

P.S. Cwm is already installed on my tab. Just not the kernel.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using xda premium

You need cwm 5.x to be successful I think.
Btw, gtab is quite hard to brick, as long as you didn't screw up the boot loader.

Steps should be to:
- Install GB-stock-safe-v5.zip (Odin) (I have 1.85 is that ok?)
- Install Overcome 4.0.0 Kernel (Odin) (I have 1.85 is that ok?)
- Install Overcome 4.1 ROM wipe (via CWM, should I use wipe or no wipe?)
Once I am done with that I can use CWM to install an ICS ROM if I wish.
I think I got this correctly didn't I?

Ok, I am now lost about which specific ROM to try. CM seems more stable but is there any specific release (more stable) that I should be looking for? Could anyone please link a post to a stable ICS CM release for my tab?

Please please please help

Hello all, I was running Rocketrom v10 on my Note with notecore v13 kernel. Everything was going great, but decided to Gove phone to my wife (got myself an s3), so I went into the phone menu and chose factory reset. It seemed to work, but now it won't boot, the galaxy note screen loads, then it just gels blank. I couldn't get into recovery, but I could get into downloader, so I successfully flashed a pre rooted GB Rom in Odin, everything worked, Odin reported it passed, and the phone rebooted, but again it goes to the galaxy note screen, then just goes blank. I'm at a total loss, still can't get into recovery ( in saying that with the new GB Rom I'm not sure that recovery is installed-I followed the guide in the forum) I'm at the stage where I am pulling my hair out. If I could get to recovery I know I could wipe everything, but I can't been do that. Any help would be massively appreciated

You had been on Notecore kernel and now have flashed GB rom successfully. That mean you are not having any dangerous kernel for now.
Should go into recovery, wipe cache and data then reboot system.
If it still not working well then try to flash another GB rom (should be able to download from Dr.Ketan's thread. cheers.

Cheers for the reply, but I can't boot into recovery, doing thenwhole volume up plus home button plus power, no joy. Getting balder by the minute

Glad you got out of it. Normally, unless experiencing superbrick which is quite rare, any symptoms like this are redeemable.

Question about flashing i717 roms

I tried to search and did not come up with the information I was looking for, but I was wondering what would be entailed in getting WiFi and vibration to work with the att note i717 ROMs. I flashed aocp the collective from the i717 by replacing boot.img and everything seemed fine except WiFi and vibration.
I tried replacing dhd.ko and vibrator.ko with ones from a T-Mobile ROM but that did nothing. Also if anyone has gotten those things to work what was done? Any information is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

So i doubt we'll get a response but it this possible? I;m about ready to dump this phone and just take the hit and leave tmobile. I have never had as much issue with a phone just getting a stable release. Between terrible coverage to random restarts this phone is just coming off as what i expected from samsung.

It definitely seems like its a kernel issue, I think I'm gonna post a question over in the i717 forum, hopefully get a response. Some of those guys are using t879 ROMs and I wonder if they had similar issues with the WiFi and vibration? I haven't been able to dig anything up. I'm in the process of unpacking the kernel, I'm gonna try a few things and see if I can get this to work. Setting up the environment is taking a while.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T879 using Tapatalk 2

Alright, I have finally got WIFI to work with i717 ROMS, now im just working on getting the vibration working. should be able to have that working here in a just a short while. afterwards i will do a write up for those that want to try it. definitely will give people more options for flashing roms.
The only rom i have tested with so far is the latest version of paranoid 2.56 for the i717, will try this method with others after i get vibration going. Other than those two things i have not noticed any other problems with flashing i717 ROMS.

Nice, well I have a device to test and break stuff on. I've given up on what we currently have available because everything I've tested in the last month just turns to **** after a week.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T-879 using Tapatalk 2

wifi and vibration are now working. I posted a thread in the development section. The fix is bundled into a flash-able zip file for flashing in recovery!

Will this work on tw based roms?

The only thing you should have to do is pull the boot.img and replace with a boot.img from a T-Mobile tw based ROM. I tried doing just that on black star over in the i717 forum and it worked fine, I ran it for a few hours before switching back to jelly bean and I didn't notice any problems with the ROM.

Our roms can be flashed back and forth. Just be rooted, have the latest twrp and flash the rom of your choice. Than flash the blaze ics modem.

Installing CM 10.1 on p1000

Hey, im a noob so heres my problem, ive experimented alot on my p1000 and one thing that bothers me alot was the video playback which was either choppy or laggy on CM so ive always restocked it back to GB. I think the solution for this is to use another kernel other than CwM. IS there any other kernels that i could try, the ones that could result in very good hd playback once im on a custom rom?
Sent from my GT-P1000 using xda app-developers app

First kernel and CWM are two different things CWM is one of the recovery mode.
For HD videos... You can use CM 10 or 9 or give AOKP SGT7 a try.... They are much stable...
Sent from Android

Ok so kernel and cwm are different i get it, but could you tell me how to install the heimdall kernel on p1000 step by step? Ive read from somewhere that it could improve hd video playback. And ive already used cm 9 stable and there is no cm 10 stable yet before but the problem persisted. . .
Sent from my GT-P1000 using xda app-developers app

Heimdall is a tool to flash ROM/kernel.
It is not a kernel. You read wrongly.
Find the same article and read again with the new understanding of what heimdall/kernel/cwm are, and see if you can make out what is that that was recommended.

Yes you're right, I kinda read wrong, the article said about the humberos, now that is a kernel right? I've installed it, and I realized that its a modified version of CwM but the real question is that do I have to keep using the firmware from humberos or could I use other custom roms like SGT7 aokp or Cyanogenmod?

It should be fine using it with other ROMs as long as both are from the same android version
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2

Humberos is the guy's nickname. His ROM and kernel may also be referred to as Humberos.
But he made kernels back from Gingerbread days.
So we better know which one you flash.
You can use his kernel, for example his JB kernel in, in cm10 and aokp jellybean.
you can use his ICS kernel in AOKP ICS, CM9, and so on.
For CM10.1 it is yet a different kernel.
And it is not just different cwm, the kernel itself is different.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using xda app-developers app

Well ur explanation makes sense, I installed humberos and then humberos's cm 10.1 but the problem was with the camera so I decided to install aokp Sgt7 jb and then the aokp logo goes into boot loop. I then powered off, did the power + volume up and realised that I had installed the cyanogenmld cwm over the humberos. Now what to do?

That's because you installed 4.1.2 ROM with 4.2.1 kernel... It is better for you I'd you restock then update again... And please please please install the ROM with it's kernel because both of them are good AOKP or CM
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2

Actually from the description, installing aokp sgt7 jb after running cm10.1 should not be an issue as long as you do the 3 wipes (cache, data, dalvik-cache).
aokp sgt7 will replace the cm10.1. But nevertheless, if it is still looping, do the restock.
They are all using CWM 6.x nowadays, it doesn't really matter, but the kernel has to be for the right ROM.
BTW, too many people think cm10.1 is just a little update from cm10.
It is not. It is a completely new framework. Treat it as a different ROM.

So all I gotta do is restock back to GB, root GB, install the humberos cm 10 kernel from SD after wiping everything, and then install aokp Sgt 7 or cm 10 right?

ok well ive flashed the overcome kernel and then I flashed the overcome 4.1 aka the overcome experience and its actually quite fantastic. On my way to flash JB from CM. btw do I have to register the divx licenses? as well as other licenses?

ok im using overcome 4.1.0 and its fabulous. but before I go towards JB, can someone pls explain how to wipe the 3 caches using the overcome kernel, since its quite new to me? also when flashing to cm jb, do I have to clear the caches and then install from internal sd card? Is that how I upgrade it, not clean install it?

ok so I flashed aokp and the big problem is that it installs cwm over the overcome kernel and so the video problem still persists. Isnt there a way to remove the cwm recovery from the aokp rom?

You got it all wrong.
in P1000, recovery is included in the kernel.
Overcome kernel has cwm 5.0
Aokp kernel and cm kernel has cwm 6.0.
Wipe cache and wipe data are there in main menu of cwm.
Wipe dalvik cache is in Advanced menu.
You have overcome ROM 4.1, boot to cwm and flash aokp a few times until it is done, then flash gapps.
Reboot.
There is never a need to remove cwm. Where do you read such idea?

I didn't read it, I just thought about it. Anyhow, I flashed aokp a few times just like you said, and flashed gapps (obviously), but result is still the same. I'll post a video ASAP on the video playback performance that I'm still complaining about...

Video is a kernel/codec related problem.
It is not logical to link it to gapps or cwm.

You'll have to give more info. How did you flash cm10? And from which source? It sounds like you still have a cm9 based kernel trying to boot cm10 rom which won't work, you need a cm10 kernel for cm10 rom.
