So they finally have a vzw cdma galaxy tab rom!!
Ive done some rooting and installing roms on a few of my phones several times but this tab is new for me.
I downloaded bootloader off the market and ran the recovery. It got to the clockworkmod recovery screen. I got a a few questions...
I cant seem to get back into my tab after i ran the recovery, but i can get to the "downloading" screen...Everyone says to use Heimdall. I have the rom on my computer, my question is where in the program do i put the rom to flash it?? There is a "pda/code", "kernal", etc...i just dont know what one i should put it at.
Last question is do i need to install any of the other ones like "modem" or "recovery" in the heimdall screen?
Thank for any help!!

I just tried to do the 3.16 update via dcd's instructions and now I see this, frozen at the sprint splashscreen. I tried a hardreset
I got until step 3 -- Flash new ROM, it went through no problems
WHAT TO DO!?
PLEASEe HELP <3 thanks in advance!
read..why flash a rom if you cant read?!
if i remember correctly, it is because dcd's rom doesnt include the new sprint radio.
either flash the sprint radio by itself, or flash the unofficial sprint rom followed by whatever ya want after that
of course it's gonna be a pita since you didnt do your research beforehand. tsk..tsk...
SOLUTION
Actually I think you did everything right...
... you just overlooked the same thing that I did ...
The instructions are a bit vague on one thing (for those of us who haven't done much rom flashing before)
You must load the new radio BEFORE your new rom will even boot!
----------that is why you are hanging on the yellow Sprint boot screen------------
1. This means you need to go back into "boot loader mode" (hold power and camera and reset with stylus)
2. Then run titan_radio_3.27.00.exe while your phone is hooked up via USB)
After that finishes you should be rockin with the rest of us!
Hey guys, I really need some help. I have a rogers htc dream (Canada's g1) I was trying to root and following the following this thread after getting my spl to 1.33.2005
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=544654
after this i went to recovery and had the latest cyno in my sdcard as update.zip, in recovery i selected the sdcard update option and it did what it had to do. After this i went and rebooted and my phone is hung at the rogers icon.
This entire process is in this thread (by me) in the Dream section:

if anyone could come to this thread and help me out i would love the help. If this phone does not get working i will be stuck to using my lg neon for the next 2 years. Thank you for ANY help what so ever.
and i can still access the recovery menu and the fastboot menu
Not a brick/semi-brick
this is not a brick/semi-brick. since cyanogen took out google apps from his roms (legal issues), you have to flash two files. if you go to his thread and go the his wiki, he will give you both files. you flash the first file (a htc file) then you flash cyanogen. it will boot up after a few minutes.
I have run into a strange problem. I have spent the last 2 days trying to flash the Fresh Rom back onto my phone. I had some problems while trying to do Apps to SD. Flashed back to stock, Updated and rerooted. I can restore all backups of the original sprint ROM. Every time I flash Fresh 1.0 or restore one of my nandroid backups for Fresh it will get stuck in a boot loop. I have searched everywhere and tried every possible option and can not get this Rom back on the phone. Anyone have any ideas?
first off, do you have a modded Recovery Menu? Because you need one, it is in the forums, i believe it is stickyed, but if its not search for it.
second, did you download the right ROM for YOUR phone?
Third, is the download a good download? it is possible it is corrupt.
put ALL these into consideration.
That what I was gonna ask gotta make sure you're rooted for flashing first! Good luck and let us know if you have any questions...if the directions for rooting viat the Android SDK are too confusing for you like they were for me search the forum for the "flashrec" way of rooting your phone so easy a caveman can do it!
Also be sure to get the base 1.29 RUU just to have if you need to default to stock and I found with my Sprint Hero model that recovey image 1.5.2 works best for back up and restoring 1.2.3 didn't work at all for me hence the need to run the base RUU anytime I tried to restore lol.
Yes I did all of that. I had it flashed with the fresh Rom before. Used the same files that where on my card even redownloaded. No go.
hey can someone tell me how to change from the rom evil hero 2.7 that i have now to MLIGN 3.3? my recovery image is 1.2.1 and i heard i need to get the 1.5.2 is that true? if i do need to change my recovery image to 1.5.2 how do i do that.
dowlnoad a 1.5.2 recovery (although there are even newer ones) and flash that as well. Instructions are... everywhere (even at the page where you download recoverys)
Then get the mlign rom and flash it
Learn to help yourself and do some searches. Instructions are literally everywhere.
edit- since ive never dealt with that version recovery before, I don't know why you have to upgrade and don't really see a need for it but it doesnt hurt to go to something newer.
Also, i have a question. How were you able to find MLign3.3 but not the recovery image+instructions? I don't get it.
ok thanks so i did as you told me and it seemed to work perfectly when i rebooted the HTC screen came up and said process not responding and it gave me the option to force close or wait. what do i do?
Not sure, did you wipe and everything before flashing the rom?
I am good with gadgets, but this is my first Android.
The phone was given to me already rooted and unlocked.
It is a Rogers Dream unlocked
I updated update-cm-6.1.0-DS-signed.zip to include the Videotron apn.
I updated Rom Manager and clockwork to the latest versions.
From Rom Manager I selected Install ROM from SD card, selected the updated ROM and checked all 3 options, backup, clear [I don't remember what] and clear [an other I don't remember what].
The backup was successfull
Flashing seemed successfull, but it cannot reboot. It hangs on Rogers splashscreen.
I removed the battery and:
I tried to press Volume-/power but no luck
I tried back/power but no luck.
I cannot get into fastboot.
What can I do ?
I would need detailed instructions because I am not the one who rooted the phone the first time so I don't even know how to do it yet. I would appreciate your help.
