[Q] Noob recovery rom question

Forgive me for a stupid question but I'm VERY new to this:
Because Touchwiz is so awful, and the original galaxy tab is being denied ICS by Samsung, I've been thinking about using a custom rom.
There's already a nice looking ICS port coming along.
However, being VERY new to the galaxy tab - I bought this one used, as a pure wifi device, though it HAS a sim slot, I want to know -- how can I restore the original OS if I have problems with a custom firmware?
I noted Kies will refuse to deal with a samsung tablet if it's not an official rom... or am I mistaken?
I'm on a NTT Dococmo SC-01C (original Galaxy Tab) with official 2.3 docomo firmware. this was an upgrade from the preinstalled 2.2
Thank you SO much for help in advance.

You can flash stock firmware using either heimdall or Odin
So yes you can always go back.

Would you recommend the ICS Alpha 3, or is there a better Honeycomb rom? I can't be sure which is which because it seems like every distro has its OWN version number which doesn't match the android release number... sigh

I don't have personal experience with the hc port from but its being released as an release candidate which means that it should work pretty OK but there are probably still quite a few bugs to squash. The ics alpha 3 from is what I've been testing recently. It is NOT feature complete and those features that ARE there are extremely buggy if you are curious to know what isn't working I suggest exploring the ics from dev thread. Most of the working/broken info is in the first post. More detailed info can be found by paging through. Its nowhere near ready for prime time as an every day rom. I'm just testing it because I'm a bleading edge kind of guy and wanted to check out responsiveness and the slick new UI. I will be switching my from back to a gb room sharpish. Please note that i,m not giving the project a bad review, contrarily its showing amazing progress and I'm sure within a few months that there will be a release candidate of either fully working ics aosp or cyanogen mod 9 which is an ics project for the tab that many of the pics aosp project members are contributing to right now.
For a self described noob I would suggest looking for the most stable well tested and fastest rooms you can find. My best recommendations would be overcome kratos (the latest version for the Sgt) or cyanogen mod 7. Both of which are based on gingerbread and both of which have been tested for long periods of time with awesome user feedback and work great without the bloat of all the Samsung apps and such

How to make costom rom for lg ob

HI all actually i wanted to know how to make costom rom for our lg ob using our pc [windows or ubuntu what ever] i just wanted to make costom rom like zues 2.2 or nova v9..... or ginger bread 20n..................
i hope any developers out there can give steps to make roms ..........................

Well since you dont wanna program, I think the Xda Kitchen http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=633246 should be good for you You can also simply unpack a Rom like Zeus, modify some things, repack, sign it (use search) and test it. Pls test your ROMs first, before you post them

Have you learn to read documentation? There's hundreds of them out there. We can't just explain it to you here, as they already documented/published out there. But AFAIK there's no specific docs for P970 devices, that's why you should use your brain of knowledge and your instinct to develop it...

hey N00BY0815 it says that LG Optimus Black (unconfirmed)
has any one tryed it before on lg ob
and yes thanks for replying fast

I tried it, but I wont work, since updater-script get changed and so the flashing procedure doesnt work. And I dont have time to try, since I will have a lot of tests, the following weeks... but after that, I'll try if I can make it
Just give it a try But for the first, start cooking, not deving, which is mainly about changing basic stuff, like taking redy's repack, add some build.prop tweaks, maybe fix some settings, ... Then repack and sign the zip. Test it if it works, and keep on refining Thats the easiest way i think

well i was thinking more like using our lg ob rom in virtual machine [vm ware software] or something...... i know it is a bit stupid thought.................. well atleast we will very carefull if we use that kinda method

damn that is too much risky

hi, im using CrisKelo ICS rom, to my knowledge SGN on Leaked ICS kernel can brick while falshing or wiping in recovery mode , but can someone confirm that whether its safe using it in normal mode or in daily use ???
thanks in advance

I flashed to CM9 by Xplod, its very much usable in daily usage for me. And its beautiful and fast.

Only way I could get it to work was with a wipe / reset in recovery mode after flashing the ICS ROM. I was on Stunner and booted fine after that.
I've been a bit put off by the eMMC rumours couple with being annoyed by some bugs in the versions I tried so I'm back on stock (rooted) and will wait for the pucker ICS release and then the good work the chefs will do with it!

I don't think anyone really KNOWS. Some have definitely had their phones bricked. Others who have been successful swear blind its noobs or people who rush without properly reading EVERYTHING that have had the problem.
My gut feeling is that there's no smoke without fire and it's telling that we aren't getting leaks or release ICS like we all suspected.
Just ask yourself, am I prepared to brick my $600/€600 phone for the sake of ICS which isn't that mind-blowing when the stock release is only a few weeks/months/years away?

ICS for Stock X8

SOMEONE please develop an ICS for stock X8 because since i can't unlock my bootloader i am twisted to the Gingerbread Stock version.
can anyone recommend me a Bug-free and stable Ice cream sandwich Rom for my STOCK X8??
i am searching for a great ROM a while,i tried all the CM7.2 ROM for stock.

Please try to understand the fact that it is nearly impossible to develop ICS for stock kernel. The best you can get is an extremely laggy ROM which is just a proof of concept where nothing works the way it should. devstaff tried but quit and so did troufiniou. The only way you can get a stable ICS ROM on your X8 is by unlocking your bootloader. Otherwise you have to be satisified with a themed CM7.2 ROM. Hope you understand.

i think people should learn to be satisfied, some devices which has better spec than our phone cant even get cm7 so lets just enjoy cm7 shall we

Ics is a lil laggy even on custom kernel , on stock is impossible to make it work.
