haha I bet that confused ya
try this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1090289
if you are on bootloop you better start with stock rom flashing with odin. make a complete wipe and after install with odin a cwm kernel. from there you can later install any rom again.
good luck!
After you get that all set up put overcome rom back on your tab then what you should do is download rom manager and use it to flash 4.0.0.4 recovery and go from there
Thanks for all ur replies I fixed it by simply flashing cwm 4.0 in odin and then going from their I installed stock beforehand though. Thanks for all ur help guys

I have installed lite'ning rom, but I need to completely restore i.e. remove root, remove CWM..etc
any pointers where to start?
p.s. I have downloaded the stock rom from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
Wipe data/cache from CWM recovery
Flash the rom you downloaded.
wouldn't that keep CWM though?
I'm guessing it won't after resetting phone to factory settings.

In samsung land the recovery joined with the kernel, so flashing a stock rom with a stock kernel will remove CWM.
if it's not clear, you have to wipe data/cache and then flash the rom via Odin or Heimdall.
I would recommend you flashing VillainRom 1.1 if you want to stay on the custom side of life.. or buying a usb-jig if you want to send it in for service or so.

what is the difference between CWM 5.5.0.4 and 5.8.3.1. Why ROM manager installed CWM 5.8.3.1 in Galaxy Tab P7500 while taking backup, though CWM 5.5.04 was already installed using ODIN I.85. Is it necessary to re install CWM 5.5.0.4. If so, how to re install CWM 5.5.0.4. My galaxy TAB P7500 is running on stock ICS 4.04.
Only a few changes are made(you can't even say where)from 5.5.0.4 to 5.8.3.1...
The ROMmanager must make sure that the CWM on your device matches with the version of the APP,but upgrading does no harm i.e. it's no need to reinstall CWM...
Beware!don't go into CWM if you are on the stock ICS because it has the rolling screen issue,flash all you need with ROMmanager,don't install CWM touch when you are using stock ICS(it'll be a waste of time,mony,etc)
If you want to get out of CWM(5.5.0.4) after flashing but get confused with the rolling screen just do thisress vol down and then press the power button twice...the tab restarts with all the changes you've made...
And finally:feel free to ask questions,XDA in always here to help you!

I'm using CWM 5.5.0.4 here with stock ICS. No problems at all.
5.5.0.4 is the version recommended to prevent rolling recovery.
I also followed pershoot's advice in the 2.6.36.4 thread. I did get the rolling recovery even with 5.5.0.4.
I am on stock US ICS and odined the following:
(1) US ICS 4.0.4 BL variant
(2) Recommended recovery (CWM non touch 6.0.1.2)
Now I have no flicker in the recovery or the ROM like I had experienced in the past. However, I'm rather way of CWM 6.0.1.2 because I used the previous non-touch (6.0.1.1 I think) and wasn't able to restore a Nandroid...it just hung on me. Where did you get the 5.5.0.4 that worked with stock ICS ROM/BL Jack?
Hi dj.
Can't remember now where I got 5504, read so many guides.
I have it in my drop box.
I'll post the link for it shortly.
Really

You're welcome.
Good luck.
Thank you for your nice advice and assurance. Sir I have another question/doubt. Please clarify
I am having P7500 in India. I flashed Italian stock rom 4.04 using ODIN. Later rooted the Tab using CWM 5.5.4 method. subsequently I installed ROM Manager. I did back up. It appears that CWM version was changed by ROM manager. Now I want to flash Indian stock rom 4.04 recently released and also rooting. Please suggest a mode.
Download the stock IN firmware from Sammobile and flash in Odin with PDA with your tablet in download mode. You will lose everything on your internal storage so if you want to keep your backups make sure to move them off the tablet before you flash.
You'll find lots of guides in the Q&A and Dev sections that will provide root methods for your 4.0.4 stock firmware. Or, you can skip all of this and just flash a rooted ICS ROM with a full wipe to save yourself the steps. It's really up to you.
Thank you Sir for your valuable advice.
Please clarify, If I flash INU stock ROM 4.04 on ITLY stock ROM 4.04, using ODIN, will it wipe out applications data also?
Earlier When I flashed ITLY stock ROM 4.04 on my original stock ROM 3.2 INU on my galaxy tab p7500 using ODIN, it did not wipe out any data from internal storage and all the applications were automatically installed after reboot..
It may, it may not...it depends on whether or not you boot up after the flash without issues. If you get stuck on the Samsung logo or a boot loop, you will need to boot into stock Android recovery and do a factory reset, that would format your /data partition and result in loss of apps etc.
That Thanks button works well if I have helped you makes me look like less of a noob! Good luck to you

I recommend doing a full wipe with CWM recovery before flashing with ODIN. Doing that avoids having to do a full wipe with Stock recovery which wipes the internal. Wiping before flash should avoids formatted internal. Would others confirm, this is what I have noticed on my tab.
Here is the newbie situation.
1)i just root my N4 JWR66Y successfully then
2)Flash a custom rom and reboot successfully
3)was playing around the new roms n reboot THEN this happen
4)it bootloop and i power off the phone then it comes to TWRP 2.6.0
5)try to reboot and there is no OS install
6)i still able to boot into recovery and bootloader but cant BOOT
Please help me guys:crying:
Just flash the ROM again.

If you can get to the bootloader/recovery you're not bricked.
The moment you can't do anything with your phone except throw it at somebody is the moment its bricked. You are ok my friend as posted above just flash another rom but I am confused if your phone would only go into recovery why would you not try and restore backup or just flash another rom?
Edit: Hopefully you made a backup of your original rom? Also what recovery are you using

you can either format data in cwm or in stock recovery format data/reset
or if that doesnt sort the boot loop quickest way to solve it is just to flash stock rom via odin
Remember next time before you do anything like flashing a mod or trying out something different to always make a nandroid backup in cwm - this way if you get into a boot loop or want to revert what you have done you just have to restore your nandroid backup
anyway stock rom firmware is found on my thread below

follow the instructions fully on my thread
you need to install the usb drivers
you need to put your phone into download mode (vol down home button power button)
cwm is not required and not used to flash stock rom via odin - you must be in download mode NOT recovery mode

if on stock kernel use a tempory cwm zip in stock recovery to get to cwm (need to do it each time you want to enter cwm
http://d-h.st/u2m
or flash any kernel that has a perminant cwm - your choice dont ask me to suggest
Ok thanks, I've got a kernel installed and a rom, got a couple of issues but I'll take that to the correct thread now

You don't need flash any kernel for have a custom recovery. Take a look:

Edit:ahem i think i messed up, i got the custom recovery to work, then i did a wipe to install the google rom, but it failed for some reason, what do i do now?
You sound like you really don't know what you're mate.
I think the best advice anyone can give you is to put your phone down and read some more.
If you have successfully flashed CWM then all you need to do is flash a ROM of your choice then wipe data / factory reset.
Also before you even think about flashing anything to your phone you NEED to back up your EFS partition.

you're right but now, since it's in recovery mode i have to fix this asap. i entered the recovery and did wipe data/factory reset like the tutorial said, then proceeded to install zip(the ROM) but it fails E/... status 7 installation aborted.
and i did backup data and sd card but the backups are in my pc and i cant get to them in recovery mode :/

Don't panic bad it's just down to the version of recovery ?
Just go back into recovery & try flashing again once you get status 7 go back & second line from bottom where you chose zip you will see "allow update old binary" tick the box if not ticked or until if it's selected then select zip to flash & it'll go straight through
