Tab was working fine, but just applied the Sprint patch and now it is in endless CyanogenMod
Just flash the rom again. I've quit flashing roms on it a long time ago. I recommend finding a stable build and sticking with it.
And as far as the sprint patch, I think all it does it just changes the wording. Its probably not required for cellular usage.

I never flashed the Sprint Scripter to convert it from Verizon to Sprint. I don't use cellular adapter. AFAIK it is just for appearances. I don't know if it actually messes with the cellular settings.
I haven't flashed mine in a LONG time. I used to flash nightlies pretty often but they started to get real buggy. I ended up using an old nightly from November I think and it just runs like a champ.
hey OP i know this is old but could you help me out...
How do I reverse the first step?
My tab wont actually boot
Should I just reflash another kernel? I'm not quite too sure and I understand how old this post is. I just want to go back to what I had.
Also how am I suppose to be able to copy files onto my tab if my tab wont boot? I'm confused on that part.
Glad it worked. My son killed his Samsung a long time ago so nice to see this method still works.
Has anyone gotten cm11 to work yet?
I don't know what happened but whenever I try to turn on the wi-fi, I turns off immediately.
I tried reinstalling your CM9 SPRINT DOWNLOAD 20120518 twice. I also made sure the data was cleared. Maybe this has got to do with the tab I have.
GET CONNECTED!
I've already compiled an archive with everything you need: Heimhall w/ zImage & CWM 5.0.2.7 DOWNLOAD!!
1. Extract everything to a simple folder [ex. C:\GTABICS ]
2. Turn off Gtab. Hold VolDown+Power until you get to a downloading screen
3. C:\GTABICS\Drivers\zadiag.exe to load drivers [try running as Administrator]
- (Options Menu - List all devices. )
4. C:\GTABICS\heimdall-frontend.exe to start the process
5. Kind of confusing. Focus on the "BROWSE" buttons. Look for "Kernel(zImage)" on the left and "Recovery" on the right. Hit browse for each one and select the appropriate file in C:\GTABICS. Obviously "Kernel(zImage)" = "zImage" and "Recovery" = "recovery.bin".
6. Make sure Kernel(zImage) and Recovery both have files selected and a checked box. While GTAB is at the black Downloading screen: Hit "START".
7. The process is pretty fast. Don't rush. At this point your tab will probably just boot-loop or boot but act funny.
COPY FILES AND FLASH
1. Boot into ClockWorkMod: Power off. Hold VOLUP + POWER
2. In Mounts / Storage, Mount USB Storage and Copy Build10 and GAPPS to the SD Card.
3. Factory Reset / clear cache / wipe Dalvik Cache
4. Flash zip from SDCard: locate Build10 and Flash
- It will restart into CM9, just restart into recovery for step 5
5. Flash zip from SDCard: locate GAPPS and Flash
Congrats. You should have a working bootable CM9 build.

3) Removing the first 3 lines from "updater-script":
The downloaded did not work I guess because it is of type text and in the zip its type file. Either way it was good to use as a reference since I would have no clue what the 1st 3 lines are. so edited original file then the zip worked
So yeah, it's working wonderfully!
One question though - what happens if you *don't* edit those first three lines? The only way I could flash the file is if I didn't do the edit. I tried all kind of ways to make it work - use the provided file, open the zip after putting on the CD card...everything! It simply would not install unless left alone.
So, is my tab going to blow up? ;-)
At any rate - thumbs up to the OP!
