After a lot of research and YouTube, I think I'm ready to get Android TouchWiz 4.2.2 off of my Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0.
I followed these video instructions by DroidCheats to install TWRP recovery. I've downloaded the latest stable CyanogenMod rom for the P3110 (which, from what I've read, is compatible with P3113 devices), and the Google Apps for Android 4.3, and copied these files to a folder on my external SD card.
Now do I just reboot my device into recovery mode (start TWRP), wipe it, and then install the CyanogenMod rom and the Google Apps? Or am I missing a step?
UPDATE: So I pretty much said "f**k it" and went ahead with the listed procedure after creating a backup. Everything worked except for the keyboard, so I tried a different rom which seems to be working perfectly. Thank you, CodyF86.
UPDATE: I figured out why the keyboard crashed. I mistakenly installed the Google apps for 4.3 into a ROM for Android 4.2. The 4.3 Google apps run perfectly in Cyanogen Mod 10.2 Nightly (Android 4.3).

Hi
I have GT-P1000 european/international/unbranded galaxy tab
I rooted it and I used bootloader patch.
I installed rom manager.
Which clockwork mod do I need to install.
And which rom can I use.
Is there a simple way to run "android market"?
My tab doesn't have android market installed...

You need to install a GSM rom.
Go to the thread in my signature, that is the rom you need as its the most developed. There you will find links to everything you need.
i need help too
can you give me the thread link too please
Hey,couper, install GApps then to have Google Play and other Google apps
Or he probably has it, but called Play.

Recently I went back to a stock looking android ROM.
For now I've chosen Improvement v5 ultralite + Dark Core Kernel v 2.7.3.
Everything with the ROM works just fine, but the stock theme still bothers me.
I've downloaded 3 different themes for JVB. Everytime I try to install the .zip through CWM (v3.0.2.whatever) it tells me E:/*path* couldnt be opened (bad). installation aborted... (or something similar).
Tried to install some apps through CWM (>gtalk 1.3b) and it worked just like it should. Flashing other ROMs also worked out fine with that new version of CWM.
Does anyone know whats wrong?!
btw I used a MIUI ROM before...
Thank you in advance
Sounds like it could be a legacy left from miui, maybe try a clean instal?

When you say android rom do you mean aosp, or sammy rom?
Insanity cm 012/glitch
Its based on a samsung rom.
I did a full wipe before. I've started from a froyo based Rom (darkys resurrection) with re-partion, then flashed a samsung jvb rom with bootloaders and finally the custom rom. Did I miss something?

Btw I didnt format the internal sd card, so the content is still the same there.
Anyway I didnt have any problems since the new flash...its just that I cant install themes...

I'm not familiar with miui, so might be worth having a check over there with regard to info on reverting back to samcrap rom
Insanity cm 012/glitch
Hey dont blame the samsung roms I swapped back because I needed full working 720p recording and better battery life...I hate the stock rom's ui but its the only way to go since I wanted a phone for everyday use with everything working...
Do you have an instruction for rolling back from cm/miui? I still didnt find anything...thanks for your attention mate
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
I agree with your sentiments, unfortunately no knowledge of reverting procedures but will keep my eyes peeled
Insanity cm 012/glitch
Its funny...just found out the files were corrupted (<10kb). So I downloaded once again and it works now...surprise

The best way to know would be to read their thread (last few pages and OP) as well as trying it for yourself.
Not entirely sure if it's related to CM, but only on the latest stable (10.0) I've had issues with my WiFi not wanting to stay connected, even on a strong connection.
Everything else works great!

I just installed it yesterday. Problem with mine was that the ASOP keyboard not working. Luckily I just dled teh swiftkey.apk a day earlier. Play store wasn't working for me either and the browser just open and close. That's all i tried. I'm going back to CM9 til I know whats wrong and back up some data.
I installed the stable cm10 and the gapps. Hope others dont run in to the same problem as me
Did you restore your apps or app data? That would most likely cause this problem. Or flashing the wrong gapps.
Sent from my SGH-I897 using xda app-developers app
No, once I got cm10 installed. I was trying to change some of the settings and found "keyboard(ASOP) stopped working" or some error message along the line of that when I try to enter wireless password. After installing swiftkey, I tried opening play store and it just have "server error"
So I haven't gotten to getting titanium backup yet to restore apps
I just took the latest gapps (the first link on the list), so I'm not sure if that's the right one. I'll try again during the weekend. I'll let you guys know if it goes well.
I'm on CM 10 latest stable build, 4.1.2. Came from GB kk4 plus corn 7 kernel. with latest gapps. I use touchpal keyboard.
I have TiBU pro, but rather than batch install apps, I went though google play to install apps, then selectively restored data on apps with TiBU as needed. While this took some time with this approach (96 apps), CM10 is flawless, virtually no probs at all. it actually seems more stable than before.
at times a little laggy but not a showstopper.

(edit: added keyboard info)
UPDATE: Just flashed to CM10 stable. I found out that the GAPPS I used last time was actually for CM10.1.0 while the CM10 that is out is only CM10.0.0
Be sure to get the right version of GAPPS. The latest one they have is for CM10.1.0

Looks like I'm the unlucky one den. I'm about to try again. I'm using cm's 3.0.8-g2311908 kernel.
Wish me luck.
you are correct, you want the 10.0.0 version from goo, which points to gapps 4.2, backward compatible to 4.1.
http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip
thats what I used. I guess the 4.2 set the 'latest' bit in my brain.

Hello, I am happily running Cyanvivo 10.1 (thanks developers!). I know there is an update due out soon, and this was my first time installing a custom rom. My question is, knowing that OTA isn't supported, when the update comes out will have have to wipe and re-flash, loosing everything, or is there an easier process saving my data? I looked around for the answer some but have not found it as of yet. Thanks!

The way I do it, I use SMS Backup&Restore and Titanium Backup. When I finish saving all my files, reboot into recovery, wipe everything but the SD card, and flash the ROM. When it boots up and setup is finished, then I just restore everything back using the apps listed previously.
Of course you can just dirty-flash if you're lazy but don't expect help if you run into problems. The only place where a dirty-flash should not be done is if:
1. You're switching ROM (ex. you are going from CyanVivo10.1 to SVHD v1.7.1)
2. It's the same ROM but it has a different base.

yes it is. I wrote this post before I went to the development to see PACman
I recommend PACman ROM as well due to its immense number of features (CM+AOKP+AOSPA)(CyanogenMod, Android Open Kang Project, Parnaoid Android).
That is if you don't mind the occasional bug here and there.
I own a Samsung Ace GT-S5830, it is currently running Cyanogenmod 7. CyanogenMod-7-20130301-NIGHTLY-cooper I did this a few months ago and I would like to flash it back to Android. As this was done a while back I have lost all of my bookmarks. Could someone please point me to some instructions to do this.

Wrong section mate! There is a great Q&A Thread!
...
1. You should read this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1768181
2. Backup your current rom using CWM (do it via recovery)
3. Use Titanium Backup to save your bookmarks, or the data files from which ever app (even you can save de apk)... if you use Titanium Backup then when you restore the data you might face troubles in different roms (4.2.2 / 4.3).
4. To backup all your contacts use contacts app to export all of them to your sd
Now you are ready to flash a fresh stock or another custom rom

Do you feel the wi-fi slow compared with others cyanogenmod roms or the stock rom?
I used the nightlys of january, february and march (all) and my phone have slow wi-fi
CM7 ROMs are not totally bug-free. There have been GPS issues with several ROMs in the past. Also I till the date have never been able to use the phone on CM7 as a modem for computer as the modem (phone) doesn't respond. Also minute but Wi-Fi issues that prevailed previously seem to be sorted out eventually but expect no optimization.
If you want speed & stability with all the working features, use the stock based ROMs.
