[Q] Rom Flashing sequence?? 4.04 -->4.22 - Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I would like to know the rom flashing sequence like if I got a P1000 4.04 CM 9, and i want to upgrade to CM11
then what path should I take?
Can I flash the 4.22 rom directly?
or 4.04 --> 4.1 --> 4.2
or need to back to 2.3 and flash to 4.2?
I searched some posts but I cannot find the answers
I know there is some sequence and if not follow, may brick the phone.

Since your cm9 could be of old mtd (prior to April 2012), you better restock, then flash overcome kernel or any cwm, then flash cm10 or any kernel that has TWRP recovery, then cm11.

There is no need to restock and no need to go step by step...
Which one of the available CM11 4.4.2 ROMs do you intend to use? I had pretty much all of them working at one point or another.
I ended up running the latest storm31 ROM in DALVIK mode with the PDROID patch.
ART or DALVIK is another question you will have to answer for yourself before you start.
Are you running on TWRP or Clockworkmod Recovery?
You should have Odin or Heimdall ready in case something goes wrong for a fast restore of a working boot image. That saves you from any possible need to restock.

[Q] How to install ICS alpha4 into my Galaxy Tab gt-p1000

such a noob question. I was wondering if there is a clean way to install the ICS into my gt-p1000. Clean meaning like the way overcome does it. Restore to Stock, then Install via Odin or something.
I am currently on Overcome-v4.0.0 #40 and planning to shift into cyanogen ICS alpha 4. could someone direct me to a guide or tell me how to safely and cleanly install the cyanogen ICS.
or is it fine to flash the Cyanogen ICS while still in overcome? im on ext4 already and my firmware version is 2.3.3

Um, why don't you simply head over to the CM9 thread and read the instructions?

Yeah it should be fine. Download the rom from humberOS website and the p1000 kernel. Boot into recovery, flash the zip and then flash the kernel BEFORE rebooting. Obviouslyif you use a PC to download you will have to put both zips on your SD card. hope that is clear and helps, unless of course you have already flashed it successfully

So let me get this straight...

I recently upgraded my Note to official ICS (OTA) and I'm not liking it AT ALL! Now I really want to get far away from this update as possible and I'd like to switch to a CM9 nightly Rom. I've that now that I have upgraded to the official ICS Rom, I run the risk of super bricking my device. So now I ask you to help me make sure the following is correct so that I may move on from this wretched update:
DO NOT perform wipes if you are on original Samsung ICS
DO NOT perform wipes if you are on a original Samsung kernel??
Flash back to original Gingerbread Rom using odin BEFORE flashing to CM9
Flash to different kernel??
I've flashed millions of Roms but this one is scary and I just want to make sure haven't missed anything... Have I?
Thanks for you help!!

Just flash a stock directly rootable GB rom, root and put CM9 on it. Then do a factory reset and you're good to go. Went that way few times already.

So is the super-brick BUG on the official ICS OTA?? OMG
And yeah go back to gingerbrear via odin, get root then flash any CM9 tru CWM no problems...
I'd like to do something similar to what the OP wants to do however I have rooted and installed CWM on an official/stock ICS rom. So if I wanted to flash back to a stock gingerbread rom would I need to remove CWM and/or un-root?

There is no need to unroot first. You can flash stock GB rom directly via Odin.
I've now flashed to GB but before I move on to a CM9 nightly, do you recommend I flash the CM9 kernel as well? Seems like it is not a prerequisite but I would like to make sure. Thanks.
John J
afaik, when flashing a CM9 Nightly, the eligible kernel is built in, so no need to flash anything but the ROM.
i'm on one of imilkas first CM9 port and it says [email protected] #1 under Kernel version in settings.
Yes. The correct kernel is included in the nightly.

[Q] GT-P1000 Confusion about how to install Andriod

Hi, I would love to update my GT-p1000 to ICS, I have found a whole bunch of posts about how to do this, but I can't really sort out what posts are the correct ones or where to start.
I have not updated with a custom image before so it's "clean"
I have rooted the device though, but that is about it.
Can someone guide me step by step on how to install a ICS image on this device?

Hi too. Your post confuses me. I thougt almost all ICS update Q&A threads are similar and therefore correct too.
It would start by tell you there are several ICS ROMs available.. CM9, and Stimpz0r's AOKP, being the main choices.
Continuing to ask you to follow the team overcome website instructions to restock (i.e. install GB-Stock-Safe) with team overcome kernel ONLY(no need to install overcome rom)
Next would be downloading the respective .zip file from their threads, and usually ends by asking you to follow each respective install instructions on their first posts. Currently AOKP and CM9 follows a very similar install procedures.
So, all these posts similar to tbe above are all correct.
But since you are on stock and rooted, AND if you are on Gingerbread 2.3.3 or up, with JPZ modem, you can skip the restocking procedure and directly install Overcom KERNEL before flashing ICS .zip file.

Do you mean
How do you put ICS into your Tab ?
First upgrade to 2.3.3 Then install cwm by using chainfire's pda and flashing it through odin 3 v1.7
http://www.4shared.com/zip/g-uW6vGt/CF-Root-TAB7_XX_OXA_JQ1-v33-CW.html
then you have to flash overcome nowipe from team overcome's site.
after that you can follow any post incluzing stimpz0r's aokp or cdesai's cyanogenmods
What about for 2.3.3 unrooted set up if would like to had an ics? Also the same cm9?
Thanks

Same procedure.
Install CWM by flashing a kernel that has CWM built in , like Overcome 4.0 kernel.
The exact step you can follow overcome guide.
Then boot into cwm and flash ics and gapps.

One question from me (it's about ICS and soft modification so I allowed myself to put it here)
If I installed e.g. AOKP build 37 and I want to update it to build 38, do I need to use Recovery to install new rom only? Will it wipe my data (so I need to back it up using Titanium etc.?) or should I clean it myself? What about dalvik?
Thanks for answers!
It is OK to wipe cache and dalvik cache (some recovery just lump it as wipe cache)
I update from AOKP #37 to #38 without issue, everything intact.
Remember to flash gapps again.
But there has been at least two cases if seasoned users who got stuck upgrading and had to restock.
Just in case, copy everything from internal SD to external SD or to PC, since restock with pit file will reformat internal SD.
Edit: recovery is for flashing anything and wiping, not just for flashing new rom.
Of course it only flash zip that is packaged for flashing.

Confused about upgrading CWM and installing a new rom

Hello dear XDA peeps
I need some help here or maybe I dont, thats why Im asking!
I rooted and followed all the guides a couple of months back, must be over half a year, and installed ICS Stunner 1.4.19. At that time that was simply the most interesting for my Note. These days when more stable ICS roms seem much more appealing. Altho Im thinking Im waiting for a stable working beta for JB
Since I havent done some ROM loving for quite a while Im quite confused where to begin, do I need to upgrade CWM Manager first? I have version 3.15. Or can I go straight on new ROMs? I spent some time reading about updating CWM today and it seems I have a really dangerous kernel version, 3.0.15-I9220ZLP5-CL295568 and if I understand the CWM Manager thread correctly thats part of the dangerous kernels. Which seems quite dangerous to update it since I cant find a safe version of CWM Manager to update to.
So the bottom question, do I need to update CWM Manager first to do anything safe or update the kernel first to perhaps an old safe rooted GB kernel? All the guides and stuff says the safest way is to first install an old safe GB kernel and then install a ICS or JB kernel (not at the moment tho) but is this the truth in my case?
Anyway, I really appreciate if you could give me some advice here
Thanx in advance

There is newer cf root that is 5.6. This is a safe rooted stock kernel by chainfire with CWM manager.
The devs suggest when installing TW ics custom rom it is recommended to install it while already in ics rom.
First install stock gingerbread rom, while in gingerbread rom do the wiping data,cache, and dalvik and then flash ics rom for clean installation. DO NOT WIPE IN STOCK ICS ROM, DANGEROUS. READ THE WARNING IN THE FORUM.
You can choose any tw custom rom you like.
If you want suggestion on what custom rom just ask i gave you one.
Ok, still not sure what do to first but it is safe to install a GB rom first? Updating CWM isn't that important? What I meant was that I still cant find a fitting version to install. Nearest version is: CF-Root-SGN_DD_ODD_LP8-v5.5-CWM5.zip but thats on the danger list so Im still confused about what version to download.. :/
Perhaps CF-Root-SGN_DD_ODD_LP8-v5.6-CWM5.zip is safe to install tho?
EDIT: I saw that I had cf-root version 5.2, it was CWM Manager that was version 3.15
EDIT: getting a new baseband comes with a rom, no need to install baseband seperatly? For example, getting Cassie's XtraLiteRom Version X LC1 295Mb is getting my baseband LC1 too?

You can flash the cassies custom rom directly over the stunner rom if you want to, just be sure to use ABYSS KERNEL for wiping.
Base band also known as modem. There are many flashable modem to choose so no problem what modem you Want.
If you want to install cassies latest custom rom you will get also the latest CWM recovery and manager.
Uhm ok.. so much information Im confused as usual
I cant find exactly abyss kernel. Can it be this one? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1362424/
And can I flash all roms via CWM or do I have to use PC ODIN?
EDIT: found the abyss note kernel, really slow downloading tho.

Note kernel DDLPA, ICS 4.0.3 help

Hey guys,
So a friend of mine asked me to upgrade the ROM on his note which is running stock sammy ICS 4.0.3 and also running or crawling like ****e to 4.2.2 so first thing that comes to my mind.... easy. Root it flash CWM, backup ROM, flash slim bean build 6.
But after reading about in the note section for an hour the notion of easy went out of the window, this note is running kernel version 3.0.15-N7000DDLPA-CL711285 BasebandN7000DDLP4 Build NoIML74k.DDLPA checked out Phil3759's thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1901191 but could not find my kernel on the list.
Guys kindly guide me as how I should go about flashing CWM so I can install custom ROM's without placing the phone in a situation that might lead to it getting bricked
Thanks in advance

I am in the same situation bro(same Kernel). did you get a solution. My phone circuit board conked off and hence I installed a new PBA however I liked kk4 and want to install on this. couldnt get the kernel
4.0.3 is the most susceptible to brick bug. So either move to a safe kernel or upgrade to a newer version like 4.0.4 or JB. Check in Philz thread for your build number kernel. If you can't find the same, any 4.0.3 kernel should do. Else upgrade the rom to a newer stock.
Or if you just want to install a custom rom, then flash any kernel and get into cwm recovery and go about the rom flashing instructions.
