The CDMA kernel isn’t perfect at the moment, but it does work, so your tab won’t be bricked if you flash the right kernel, you'll just have more issues!
• Verizon
• Sprint
Not Supported:
P1010 (Wi-Fi only tab).
Current version:
Alpha 3
Developers:
Angel_666
koxudaxi
cdesai
cheatman
humberos
Working features:
• Reverse tethering- http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1371345
• External SD
• Sound
• Multitouch
• Orientation sensor does work, but with a delay (you need to enable it in settings)
• Wifi
• Root
• 3G
Not Working:
• Camera doesn’t work yet, and won’t anytime in near future, due to great changes in ICS. We’d have to either write of wrapper or find some other workaround
(although it does work in panorama mode)
• Bluetooth
•
Notes:
• Touch buttons can be enabled if you want, (ro.product.characteristics=tablet in build.prop).
• Once you have a file manager installed, you can install app the normal way
• Honeycomb tablet apps works.
• Apparently you can boot this on CDMA sprint tabs as well (very long boot time at first) and P1000R!.

FAQ:
Q: Keyboard not showing up:
A: Change dpi to 160 in build.prop and click on small keyboard icon and slide physical keyboard off
Q: I've got no root?
A: Flash the root at bottom of post (thanks cheatman), or http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...&postcount=262,
Then add the sh.zip (at bottom of page) file via adb to the /system/bin folder of this device.
Thanks to sinamosavi for root!
Q: Issues with apps and/or settings:
A: WIPE DATA, THEN SEE, IT WORKS PERFECT!
Install Guide(Make sure you are on ext4 file format and gingerbread bootloaders!):
• Plug Tab into computer.
• Mount USB storage.
• Copy ICS ROM to SD Card.
• Reboot into recovery.
• Perform a ROM backup.
• Optional, but recommended: Wipe data (if you don't wipe, wait for some time on home screen for the old data to work fine with the new rom).
• Wipe the dalvik-cache.
• Flash ICS ROM.
• Reboot.
• Flash the kernel depending on your tab, (thanks to humberto for this!)
• Flash the root patch and then then the Wi-Fi patch.
• Reboot.
Enjoy!

To help devs, download nexus s rom then download cm7 by technomancer and unzip it. Extract the boot.img with splitbootimg.pl script. Compare the init.rc to ICS init.rc. Specifically the most important part here is the PATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH statement and BOOTCLASSPATH lines. Build your kernel with the updated init.rc and flash with heimdell.
From mssmison porting guide.
I am in no way responsible for anything that happens to your Tab
Help! Guys, any developers:
When i try to split technomancer's cm7 boot.img in terminal, it says:
Android magic not found. Giving up.
Yet when I do this with nexus s ics it splits it, so until unless I can't change the init.rc we can't even build a kernel. Please help, anyone!
If someone can split the cm7 boot.img for me it would help a lot!
Thanks!
Best for you is to try to download Techno Heimdal version and extract initramfs from zimage, check here .
Good luck.
