Ported to AOSP/CyanogenMod SGT7 originally by me.

As you all know, when switching from rom to rom, something called a safe stock re-partitioned is very much preferred, almost required. Even more so, when jumping from roms with different os bases, example is going from a 2.3 based rom to a 2.3.7 or 4.0.4 (or reverse).
You need to do this process to kinda bleach out anything that remains of the old rom, as many times these arent properly cleared through a recovery erase, and can leave behind bits and pieces that can, and frequently do, disrupt the next rom you try to run. This is never a good thing, as it can cause anything from a bootloop to mysterious ghost like behaviors. Not to mention many things many not work correctly in your new rom.

Team Overcome has created, or basically repacked a way to do this. Many thanks!!!!
TeamOvercome website HERE


1) Go to Overcomes website, and download a zip called: ROM | 001001-GB-Stock-Safe-v5
(this is the base, non branded 'official' release of Gingerbread from Samsung. Overcome has made a few modifications to this file, and added Odin, modems and Samsung SGT driver installer to the zip)
2) While at the Overcome site, also download a zip called: KERNEL | 002001-Overcome Kernel V3.3.1 (TAR)
(this is a kernel made by AB, with some nice work done to it. But what we need it for is to convert our system to ext4. It will not run BOCA)
3) Unzip the GB-Stock zip, and open it up.
4) Open SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_x86, and run it. This will reinstall, and clean up any old drivers for your tab.
5) plug in your tab when done, and let you computer fully install you SGT's drivers. Once its finished, unplug your tab.
6) Unplug any USB devices from your computer, & Open Odin3_v1.7, once it opens, plug your tab back in to your computer, in download mode.
Under ID:COM, a yellow window should now state your tabs is connected.
7) Place gt-p1000_mr.pit inside the PIT slot, PDA slot, place: GB_Stock_Safe_v5.tar
8) Make sure Re-partition, Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time are checked, press start.
9) Once finished, and your tab has rebooted, press reset in Odin. On your tab, skip through all the setup options, and reboot into download mode.
10) Plug your tab back into your computer, and place: 002001-Overcome_Kernel_v3.3.1.tar into the PDA slot, and press start.
11) Let your tabs sexy robot voice convert your system, once done, boot into recovery, clear everything, go to zip installer, and choose BOCA from your SD card. Let install.
*11.1) L/N device users, must now flash your cm7 device kernel
12) Boot into BOCA, and reboot once.
13) As with ANY rom, please do a full battery calibration with the included apk, ASAP.
14) Enjoy BOCA!!

1) Boot into your current recovery and clear dalvic cache, cache and user data/factory reset
2) Go to zip installer and choose BOCA from your SD card
*3a) L/N device users, must now flash your cm7 device kernel
3) Boot into BOCA, and reboot once.
4) As with ANY rom, please do a full battery calibration with the included apk, ASAP.


1)download rom
2)download gapps
3)download your devices kernel (P1000/R/T kernel is included with rom)
4)FLASH in this order: rom, kernel gapps
5)boot into BOCA, then boot into recovery, fix permissions and...
6) hit the thanks button and enjoy!!

I'll revert some stuff and put something new out.
Hopefully with an OTA feature baked in.

Also don't forget this has a cyanogen base....... Remember to check cyanogen bug tracker for issues on their end
or to report them.

Also Google play is a nightmare in general.
Some have missing apps (and they are not reporting region and giving clean details) and others see them all.
Check or report issues HERE
I'm highly tempted to lock in the market version I know works for most, but I know some will be unhappy that it's an older version.
Well see what happens there.

ALL bug reports need info like: device, and region, carrier, exact HONEST steps you took to install, kernel version used, changes to settings and if possible a logcat. pictures can help also.
not too much to ask, right? If it is, watch this video


Simply stating it doesn't work I went to a different rom doesn't help anyone. It's kinda lazy.

Help me help you, and all the while remembering or learning a few things.
This is xda DEVELOPERS. Its not xda product done. It's all a work in progress.
I work very hard and spend many personal hours, to give you my personal work. Thanks are awesome!
My device is bricked, and thank the testers for doing there thing
I don't know everything, if I did, it would be cyanogen miui and boca as the leading alternative android operating systems.

Please be CLEAR with reports, patience is great and don't forget to have fun

if you would like to be an active tester, contact me on gtalk. At BOCAroms@gmail.com or hit the contact button an say so.

diz

ps
is everyone enjoying the unrivaled awesomeness that is tweakr?

Diz Thanks once again for an amazing release.

The Nemus launcher is a great addition, for myself I prefer it to VTL.

As Diz has a bricked device I have been doing a bit of testing and am very impressed with the new release.
Battery life is excellent, it's fast and looks great. Screen shots coming shortly.
Above you will see all the additions to this rom. The control over the device is amazing, so many options to make it truly yours.

Installing the new version (my notes for when coming from overcome kernal or BOCA release etc) If in doubt restock

Copy the RC 2.0.6 to the internal SD card of the tab.
Remember to backup the device
In all cases you will need to :-
Wipe
Wipe
Wipe
Reboot twice
Log in to Gmail or G Talk.

Installing from a BOCA release.

To start, restart to Recovery.

Use the Volume button to access Wipe menu and Power button to select.
Wipe Cache
Wipe Dalvik Cache
Wipe Data / factory reset

Once you have wiped your tab clean select Go Back and select install menu then choose zip from internal SD card.

Local the RC2.0.6.zip file and hit the power button to install
Once complete go to reboot menu and reboot your tab. As we have wiped the cache etc it will take a while to boot, this is normal.

Once the system has booted you will be asked to select your launcher. Select one and see what you think. If you want hit the home button and select the other one and then you can chose the best one for you.
Once you are happy with your launcher, hit home again, tick the box to make the launcher default and select it.

Now reboot. Don’t bother doing anything else until you have done a reboot.
If your unlock screen is smaller than the device screen, you have not restarted the device..

Once your reboot has completed I suggest that you connect to WIFI now. Start the market and put in your details, it will update to play and then you should be ok to update apps install what you need etc.
Remember Diz does not have a working tab. For this reason some of the apps are not up to date, update from my apps to resolve this.

Re the status bar, the ROM has an option turned on to enable a dead zone in the middle of the status bar. To pull up the notification bar do it from the right hand side, if you use the middle it will seem that notification bar is not working, this is not the case.
To disable this go to settings, CyanogenMod settings, Tablet Tweaks and de-select the dead zone.
The dead zone is great if you are hitting the status bar instead of the space bar whilst typing..
