Same here. P6210 doesn't boot. Tried fix root and not fix root when asked. Tried reinstalling ROM a second time without clearing data, cache, dalvik etc. as suggested by OP. No difference just stuck on "Galaxy Tab Plus" screen.

You have to install stock ICS, and then install this rom. Great ROM. My battery last longer than with stock or Paranoid Android.
But the stock interface is very ugly =\

I think PA actually has allot better battery life than Stock.. for me its at least 1.7 times longer battery life on PA. Due to the idle mode which i believe cuts power to the cpu during standby.

Agreed, I don't appreciate the looks of TouchWiz, but I've reverted back from CM10 and Cm10.1 mostly because the USB/OTG support didn't work as well as on stock (mounting a flash drive, using a mouse or keyboard did usually work OK for me in CM) and I could never get the remote shutter release apps for Canon DSLRs to work while running CM9/10/10.1. I don't care about the silly IR blaster, but the lack of HDMI support has bothered me a bit.

To install Elements HD coming from CM10.1, I used Mobile Odin Pro with the Everroot root injection feature to flash the Honeycomb KL1 release (clearing out the recovery field so that CWM wouldn't be replaced with stock recovery), then I flashed the ICS LPC release in the same way. Then I flashed Elements HD using CWM (6.0.2.7). It worked out great.

If any of you have problems with the ported CM File Manager app, I have some tips that should get that working in stock ICS/Elements HD.

Thanks for the tips. I came from HC. Flashed stock ICS by Odin, then installed aorth's CWM by Heimdal to flash Elements.

I had problem with no root access initially, but I realize I installed the wrong version of CWM. Now reflshed and everything including root work.

Thanks this is a really smooth ROM, and wifi works much better than stock ICS! I want to stick to ICS and not going to JB, because I want to keep flash player in the browser for HD videos.

Is this ROM finished? Like, final version? I'm debating on flashing or not, I'm using CWM 6.0.2.7, will I still get root access?

My wife and I installed the T869 version on her device last night and as of this morning, it is still stuck on the Samsung logo despite having followed all of the instructions to the letter. She installed it first, and when she couldn't get past the Samsung logo, I gave it a shot myself and got the same result. She was running the stock T-mobile ICS ROM on her device.

Is this version still in development?

I had the same problem on my P6210. I followed the flashing steps in the order written and was stuck at the Samsung screen for 30 minutes or so. I then flashed again but cleared regular cache first, then Dalvic cache and then data. After that, the Samsung screen was displayed for 3 or 4 minutes and then the "updating android" box appeared and it finished booting.

Thank you, John!

Thanks for that info TrojanDad, unfortunately since we have flashed this rom, my wife has been unable to connect to her data. On a call with Samsung, she discovered that her imei was fake, (004999010640000) when it wasnt before and her serial number is all zeros. I don't know what this rom changed to cause this problem, but in my research the issue seems to be unfixable. Samsung has recommended that she back up her tablet's data and then call back so that they can do a factory reset.

    FAQ

    Q. How do I install this ROM?
    A. First of all, download it from above for your device. There's three models of this Tablet, the GT-P6210 /1 (WiFi), GT-P6200 /1 (GSM), and SGH-T869 (T-Mobile). Click the download for your device and download the ROM.
    After Downloading, Move the ZIP folder on to your Tablet's Internal or SD Card Storage by connecting it to the computer. Now Power OFF your tablet. Next, Hold down the Power and Volume UP keys at the same time (Whilst it off), then once it turns on RELEASE your finger off of the Power Key, Only holding down the Volume UP Key now. Once in the Recovery, (Optional: Make a Backup) Clear your Dalvik Cache (Under Advanced), Cache, and Data. Now Install the ZIP folder from your SD Card (It should Says Elements HD Build xxx).
    Summed Up:
    1. Download ROM (For your device)
    2. Transfer to Device
    3. Reboot Recovery
    4. Wipe Dalvik & Regular Cache, then Data
    5. Install ROM


    Q. Why won't my Tablet boot?
    A. Something probably went wrong while installing the ROM. Just Reflash (Install again) it in the recovery WITHOUT wiping this time.
    1. Power off (It SHOULD bootloop or get stuck)
    2. Reboot Recovery (Power + Vol Up, then once on Vol Up [While OFF])
    3. (DO NOT WIPE) Flash Elements HD Build 3
    4. Reboot (DO NOT WIPE)


    Q. Why did you keep the Boot Sound?
    A. To make sure the Tablet is at least heading in the right direction and not bootlooping a blackscreen. I'll probably remove it later though.

    Q. Why does the Tablet Settings -> About Device say Build 1 when I'm on Build 2?
    A. I forgot to change the number. No biggie. If you have the extra apps I included, then everything's fine.

    Q. Why did you keep the bloat?
    A. Because some people use it. I'll put it in the Data Folder next build though so you can uninstall it.

    Q. When's the next update?
    A. Never. Just kidding. However, if you ask me despite me saying in several places not to, I won't be kidding.

    Q. I want xxx Feature added! Can do you do it?
    A. Post here and ask.

    Q. I LOVE this ROM. What can I do to help out and make better builds come?
    A. 1. Hit the thanks button 2. Donate 3. Share with fellow Tab users

    Q. :'( Why isn't my device supported?
    A. Probably because I haven't gotten a System Dump and Boot.img for it. See Post 7. to have your device supported.

    Device Support List:

    (Later Revised Tablet's should work if their parent device is supported) [EX: GT-P6210 / GT-P6211]

    [X] GT-P6210
    [X] GT-P6200
    [_] SGH-T869

    Thread Starts here now! Ignore previous posts about troubleshooting and issues (aside from the double flash rule)!


    Those of you who want to request features, I'll gladly take them. Please make a post with the Name of the item wanted to be implemented along with a possible link as to where I could find it and I'll see to it that it gets added!

    They will NOT be in Elements HD 1.0.0 however (1.0.1 for P6200 users). I'll be putting in requests into Elements HD 2.0.

    Build 4 will be the Final release for 1.0.0 (1.0.1 for p6200 users).


    Build 3 For P6200 Users is here: http://d-h.st/hZB


    Be sure to thank gingerboy92 for finding what was wrong with the P6200 build! I did not have the partition table for the device so I was just going off of my head and my tablet's table which was WRONG apparently. (Once again why things are always risky when a dev makes stuff for devices they don't have! xD)

    Once again (I really don't want PMs):

    Install Instructions:
    1. Download ROM for your device
    2. Put on Device (Preferably Internal Storage)
    3. Reboot Recovery (Power off, then Power on and Hold Volume UP)
    4. Wipe Davlik Cache (It's Under Advanced) Battery Stats, Cache, and Data.
    5. Flash ROM (Install Zip)
    6. Reboot (Let it boot for a bit)
    7. Power Off & Reboot Recovery
    8. (DO NOT WIPE) Flash ROM (Install Zip) once again!


    Follow those simple steps and you're good to go! :D

    FAQS

    Q. Why won't Version IV (4) be out for the GT-P6200 tomorrow?
    A. From now on I would like to have one or two people test the package before it's mass downloaded by all of you.

    Q. Why isn't the SGH-T989 getting Version 2, 3, or 4?
    A. I just got the dumps and boot.imgs. I always do the initial builds before doing the others.

    Q. What features will Version IV (4) have?
    A. Bug Fixes, File Cleanups, and mainly just a ton of cleaning. I'd like it to be marked as the next 100% Stable Build.

    Q. Can I be a tester?
    A. Sure! Just PM me with it as the subject of the message and I'll be sure to hook you up with pre and or final releases. (I won't respond after I get more than 3 testers for your device however, so be quick! :D)
