WARNING ONLY FOR GSM WARNING

I am not responsible for the bricked tabs, backaches, heart attacks or seizures which you may encounter while following these instructions. Do these at your own risk. And this guide is only for gsm galaxy tab GT-P1000 and not any other model.

I found that many people wre facing problems while flashing ics roms on their galaxy tab GT-P1000, so I thought of writing this detailed guide.

First upgrade to a stable build of Gingerbread 2.3.3. Do not use the GB stock safe package from overcome.
Then download this file:

http://www.4shared.com/zip/g-uW6vGt/...Q1-v33-CW.html

Extract it.
Download odin3 v1.7:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=821625
Then open odin3 v1.7
Select CF-Root-TAB7_XX_OXA_JQ1-v3.3-CWM3RFS.zip as PDA
Turn off your tab.
Boot into download mode by holding vol down button and power button together.
Connect your tab to your computer.
Wait for the COM:ID button to glow yellow.(DO NOT CLICK ANYTHING ELSE)
Start flashing.
Wait for the COM:ID to show “PASS”
Download Overcome_7_Series_v4.1.0_NoWipe_3.zip:
http://www.ravishare.com/1fragzl971e6/Overcome_7_Series_v4.1.0_NoWipe.zip.html
Then transfer Overcome_7_Series_v4.1.0_NoWipe_3.zip to the your tab.
Turn off your tab.
Boot into recovery mode by holding Vol up and power button together.
Use volume keys to navigate and power button to select “Install zip from sd card” and then “Choose zip from sd card”.
Select Overcome_7_Series_v4.1.0_NoWipe_3.zip.
Select yes.
Wait for flash to complete.
Reboot your tab.
Now download the ics roms like stimpz0r’s AOKP or cdesai’s Cyanogenmod and flash them via recovery.
You have now successfully upgraded your tab to ICS.
Press the thanks button.

And good news. Upgrading to Jellybean does not require you to flash Overcome.

Hi Gogol.
I know you always recommend against using overcome stock safe.
Which gb do you recommend then?

And this guy got his tab into bootloop following your method until he tried overcome gb stock safe and saved.

Well, the problem is that the bootloop occurs if the cwm i mentioned is flashed in the firmware of gb stock safe package. so i recommend against it

G0G0L · Aug 19, 2012

Well, you can upgrade to gingerbread by this method:

If you get stuck in any of the above steps, follow this method to go to stable gingerbread with bml partition.

That means some people on a stable GB will get boot loop using cf method.
Unless you can list all known gb that is unstable... jq1 now in your first.
I still think overcome guide is 100% solid.
Cf method works for some.

Hello! I was doing my first root to my P1000 and noticed a little typo in the guide:

Boot into recovery mode by holding Vol down and power button together

This should be Vol UP

Made the correction

Hi! I have installed AOKP SGT7 - Build 40 using this instructions. The ROM installed fine without problems. However i found out that that i want to revert back to Overcome ROM. I tried to install it via Clockwork Recovery and it installed fine. The problem comes when i try to boot after installation.

After boot, the screen show only the AOKP lauch screen and the tablet doesn't boot.

Do i have to do the flashing with ODIN before attempt to install Overcome ROM again ?

Overcome is GB(Gingerbread) Based ROM while AOKP is ICS(Icecream Sandwich).......
Maybe this is causing errors ie; the sources are different.......

Maybe you need to Repartion using odin with correct pit file and Overcome Stock Safe

Agreed.

You need to follow the Overcome guide to the letter, including the re-stock. Has worked for me several times getting back to the overcome ROM.

I had overcome rom for several months and want to try cm9.
I flashd it as guided and all was fine til 1 hour or so after the flashing, then entered in endless booting.
I restocked several times and flashed the rom and had the endless booting problem again and again.
Only when i used the stock safe 5 from overcome i solved it and now cm9 runs ok. No bootings so far and i did it 2 days ago. The only thing is that wiped my internal storage, but i have tons of backups.
Overcome links do not work, at least i couldnt download from overcome page.
But as a cautious girl as i im, i have all the files in my pc. So , if anyone needs them or want to put them for download, junt send me a pm or an email. I dont know if it shows, so: sandraoliveirap@gmail.com

Actually yes, using that pit file. The reason is, cm9 is mtd, while overcome is ext4. you can go from ext4 to mtd, but not back. the only way is reverting to bml using the pit file, and then flashing overcome

Thanks for posting; everything works but my 3g. I flashed cm 9. Currently connecting to 2g only. Any advice?

Why do you need to flash cm9? Flash cm10... and to make the radio work, putnthe correct modem in the vendor folder...
