This lol
I remembered when I first got my tab (in short, I traded a laptop, Xbox 360, and games used for a brand new SGT). First thing I did was rooted it via some app. Then I proceeded to install busybox for some reason, then thought "meh I feel like going back to stock" so I just uninstalled busybox (ignoring whatever message it said about not uninstalling it).
Tab didn't reboot, then I panicked and tried flashing something with Odin (not sure what it was, but I ended up trying to fill all the boxes in Odin with some files and then flashing). It failed
Eventually, I then just gave up trying to keep stock and went with Overcome
So I'm pretty lucky to still have my tab lol...
Nowadays, I find it easy to try out different ROM's (I always just restock according to Overcome's GB guide, then proceed to flash a custom ROM and Kernel)
I'd recommend spending some time on Froyo stock for a bit, then eventually trying to update to either stock Gingerbread, or another stable Gingerbread ROM (such as Overcome or Hyperdroid). Then do a bit of research and then try to go to ICS.
Just be careful on what your flashing, always double-check things, and check out people's feedback

I believe the roger's tab uses the GT-P1000 kernel but I'm not sure...do a quick search or ask the guys here.
Oh and btw, HumberOS build is quite outdated compared to the releases from Slim's build which can be found here. This ROM .zip already comes with kernel so it should work just fine on your tab I guess? And don't forget to flash gapps after ROM, but I guess that's pretty obvious judging from the other devices you messed with lol

I also bricked my Tab a few times when I started flashing ROMs on it not too bad tho since it's pretty much impossible to hardbrick the tab afaik, I never did and I flashed some pretty dumb stuff on it lol just keep a GB Stock ROM in your pc to flash with Odin/Heimdall and reflash it whenever you softbrick your tab that's what I used to do that or Overcome ROM.

Welcome!
Just a quick note on flashing the tab. As you already noticed, you should get on Gingerbread bootloaders first. The rest is up to you, all current ROMs for our Tab can be flashed on top of them. Seeing you got over the softbrick with Overcome, you should be home free already.
PS: also make sure your tab is charged at more than 10% before you start flashing or you might not be able to get into recovery or download mode. It may look like a softbrick, but you just need to let it charge...
Peace and happy flashing!

VZW Galaxy Tab i815 Custom Rom?

Hey, Guys excuse me if it seems like I haven't read enough, but I was wondering has any of the Devs created a custom Rom for the Verizon tab 7.7? If so could you post some links in this thread. Thanks

Not yet. Very little is going on with our tablet. You CAN root it easily. I also installed Tegra Overclock app from market. Other than that...zilch. Its not like the last 7" VZW Tablet that we could have lots of ROMS for.

Yep, I think it may have been the price point combined with the contract element, that has kept the Devs from purchaseing one or being willing to play around with it. Maybe once there is stock restore firmware available, we will start seeing something. Sadly, by that time we will have ics and may not need a custom Rom at all.

There is no firmware for our device available yet, that's why we done have a custom Rom yet.

locerra has been working on a CM9 port, it's posted in this forum, although it's still in it's early stages (no data or wifi for the 815)

Id like to just seeif i could flash it, then i would go right back.

This is the same work as the current cm10 ROM on the forums, this should be deleted for duplicate ROM posted.

Sent from my E15i using xda premium

I know.. but you wona say its not better to do it ........

Honestly, why? Why on earth would you need B2G on an X8? You're far better off trying to develop for JB or ICS. But I support you and would also like to help, but I cannot download the sources as my Internet connection sucks big time. And also you need to figure out a way to run the kernel from sd-ext if I'm not mistaken. So if the sdcard goes bust somehow, the user's screwed (for some time), right? Keeping these things in mind, I personally feel that developing for JB or ICS would be far better. Still with you, if you need any help.

recovey recongnizes this rom as mokee cedartics port

Hey guys took a look at the thread I love the community trying to make ChaOS a reality... The ROM show's up like that because the dev is probably using my ROM as a base... although my ROM isn't the best base for an unofficial port. Better use randomblame's it's cleaner . Now about the not booting up. I am guessing it is failing to intialize the framework due to a kernel issue. I can fix and make a ChaOS compatible kernel... I will try to do it by tomorrow. Dev please PM me to tell me what development procedures have gone on. Also ChaOS uses the MIUI theming engine so I am guessing some special libs and other stuff must be transplanted into the base. I can also take a look into it if the dev gives me the point of starting Hope you all have a good day
