Hi fellows,
For sure, more than 95% of ROM development at XDA is devoted to P1000 version (Euro/USA/... Galaxy Tab version). Unfortunately (or not...), Samsung released at Latin America two different versions of GT: P1000L and P1000N. My researches shown that theses version has different hardware from P1000 one, and the most important, IMO, is the touchscreen. Conclusion: when we try to use custom ROMs, we aren't able to even use it.
So, I have started this thread to centralize information regarding P1000L/P1000N. Please, if you have these devices and have already tried to use a custom ROM or Kernel, please post the information here. With this, we can verify what modifications we need to make to adapt XDA custom ROMs/Kernels to our GTs.
We have the following topics here on XDA about our devices:
Humberto's ROM and Kernel (Froyo)
Humberto have compiled a Froyo Kernel and ROM with many improvements
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=974408
Humberto's Kernel (Gingerbread)
Humberto have modified the original, leaked P1000N gingerbread kernel to add Lagfix and gave us instructions how P1000L users can flash P1000N gingerbread version
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1124224
My Gingerbread kernel
I have compiled a P1000L/N kernel for gingerbread after the source code release, adding many things like UV, OC, new governors, etc. To avoid mess with Humberto's thread, I decided to start a new one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1274855
With the right kernels now, we can flash customs ROM like:
BOCA

Overcome
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1205990
CM7
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=931857
OBS.: Always refer to P1000L/N Gingerbread thread from Humberto to verify which kernel you need to flash to use one of these ROMs!
Thanks!
I can provide the PDA, Modem and CSC Multi files to be flashed in Odin for P1000N from Claro provider if they're needed at all, only downside is that they're JJ1 not the JJ5 which they're currently shipping Tabs with. Honestly I don't see any difference between the versions, but there should be some.
Well, apparently we got a new kernel for GT-P1000L deceives that camera and TV tuner is fully working and has interesting capabilities, like 1.4GHz overclocking! Thanks to @humberos. More info on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=974408
Additionally, my Vivo GT has received an update through Kies and now my ROM version is P1000LVJJMA, which I don't know yet if this kernel is compatible. I have contact @humberos and we will try to find out.

Currently http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1124224 is a Gingerbread Kernel that can run a version of CM7.
I can not attest to validity of the ROM, as I don't have a latin version, but yeah... There it is.

Are you on stock rom ? I upgraded my p1000n to gingerbread overcome and feel that the battery last less than with froyo.

I see a lot of P1000CWLZTO being offered in online shops in Brazil.
Would that be a third version: "P1000C"?
What are the differences between the L, N and C versions?
I do like to have the digital TV. Actually, is it just 1seg? Does it show 16:9 broadcasts correctly (soccer!)?
Thanks!
Hi! I just got a gt-P1000n unlocked tablet from Chile. I leave in Canada.
Froyo 2.2, baseband P1000NUBJM2.
This is my first expeeience with android, i come from wm.
I've got a lot to learn.
After many unsuccessful attempts with z4root, i did root my tab with oneclickroot.
I have read these latin tabs are different than others. How?
Lesser quality?
I can't find any specs comparaison on the web.
Thanks

Not at all... just a little different in hardware. I had that firmware on my P1000N. Maybe if you check on the small print on the back of your tab, you should see P1000N... let us know.
Basically we have a few different Tab hardwares. The P1000, Euro US and etc, both GSM and CDMA versions. Latin versions P1000L / N (and maybe C as commented above). P1000L and N are the same, except P1000N does NOT have TV, P1000L has TV, 1seg like in Brazil. There is also another different hardware, the Tab with wifi only (no SIM chip).
Since P1000 is the most commonly used one, there is a lot more development going on for it... but luckyly we have HumberOS for the salvation of our latin version tabs. Just Google "xda humberos" to find his posts.
Cheers.
Yes i have the 1000N.
I read here it is difficult to flash an gingerbread orovercome rom!?!?
Only Hubertos roms are working, isn't it?
Thanks

You can flash Gingerbread from Samsung. If you want to flash anything customized, like Overcome rom, you need to do it through humberos kernel, made for our latin tabs.

Yes, you loose root. Then you can just flash humberos' cf-root or voodoo lagfix kernel to get root back. Overcome is very good and stable. Just remember to replace the zImage file inside Overcome's zip file with HumberOS' kernel voodoo lagfix.

Do you suggest me to read anything else than [Jun27][GSM][Kernel][Gingerbread][P1000L/N]?

That's it. Read the last page of the thread. rlkalves just flashed Gingerbread.
Always use original USB cable from Samsung for flashing. Don't use USB HUBs. Make sure you have a good tight USB port, make sure your Windows and USB Drivers are all 100% and close all software to run ODIN or Heimdall ALONE.

I did install Overcome Hermes but overlooked the fact that there is still not usb connection to pc. Al sd cards and browse.though from kies i am able to get into internal and external
What is the procedure to go to another gb rom like Jupiter?
Is it a matter of repackaging the Jupiter's zip with latest zImage from first post and install via sd card with Recovery Cwm mode?
Restart from begining with stock Froyo?
Wait for Humberto to work on it?
For CM7?
From hermes do i directly
Download CM7 Beta
Uncompress .zip file and replace zImage.
Use Heimdall to flash it.
I have updated my frnd's spica from 1.6 to 2.1 a long time ago and i'm thinking of upgrading the android version.Which do you suggest, the
[Rom] [Spica] OMG v1.22.12.10 [Android 2.1] [Stable] [Customization Updated/Adding]
what is the diff betwen this one and one of the official early released eclairs ?
or
FROYO for SPICA (CyanogenMod-6.1.1-Spica-alpha8.3)
Is this Foryo stable and usable ? (my frnd does not know anything about these things)
Better install SpicagenMod- also Froyo, it's still not a final release but it's beeing worked on all the time
I suggest SGM-froyo-BETA1-NextGeneration. It's stable, nice and Silky Smooth

HI
Hi
at the moment I'm running froyo 2.2 rom on my spica and to be honest I am not that impressed. its the samdroid mod, this 1 I think (not sure a guy rooted, etc for me)
SamdroidMod 2.0.1.alpha.8.3 - Froyo [AOSP] for i5700
so my Q is this, can I just put the rom you have supplied on my sd card then boot into recovery apply then hit home when prompted?, Do I have to hit "Wipe cache etc"? as this will be my first time applying a rom myself. Will I lose all my settings & apps etc?
does everything work l;like sound, bluetooth etc, all the important things I mean.
any help you can provide will be greatly appreciated

well,i installed the custom eclair long back on the spica upgrading it from 1.6 using ODIN softwere flasher. I guess if your phone is rooted,i guess you can just put it on ur SD and you have to erase cache and data as these are not upgrades to your version , but completely different versions.
Here is a new one from samdroid as well - http://forum.samdroid.net/f53/cyanogenmod-6-1-1-spica-alpha8-4-a-4716/
You can back up all your stuff with some softwares on the market... - Titanium Backup ★ root - Android app on AppBrain
The best for me is "Ultimate Spicaclair 1.5"

Hey guys ... just bought used Acer iconia A500 with rooted 3.1 honeycomb , and it's not getting any official update 3.2 ,,,, is it possible to go back to it's original (official 3.0) ... idon't want any rooting on my tab and i don't know alot about these things .... so can someone please tell me the steps what to do ????
my kernel 2.6.36.3-00005-g5dff38c
build # Acer_A500_3.019.04_com_EGN1
basedband version unknown
i really appreciate your help guys .
You really should have searched the forum... Yes, it is possible, of course (though it might be tricky to undo due to changes in Acer's bootloader). Better still: install an up-to-date rooted stock ROM and save yourself the hassle, as surprisingly many apps need root to work anyway (like Juniper VPN, which is used in a lot of corporate and university networks & Titanium Backup, which might just save your bacon if you screw up)...
You'll figure out the rest if you do due diligence searching this forum & the web (and you'd probably have found the information above if you already had done so before).
Hi!
I bought a Spanish XOOM about 8 months ago and I'm still stuck with Android 3.2. Motorola is supposed to be releasing ICS for European Wifi Xooms before 2012 Q2 (which already ended, now they say that before July ends, which is tomorrow) while in USA are already working with 4.1.1 JB.
So I have the doubt of what's the best way to proceed:
a.- Wait for the 4.0.3 (or 4.0.4) official release, and wait another 6-12 months for Jellybean. The advantage is not loosing the warranty and the disadvantage is having to wait until Motorola releases ICS. I'm really tired of waiting to motorola (possible latest product I buy from them due to this).
b.- GEDify my xoom (flash the US-Wifi image, updating up to 4.1.1). The problem is that I loose the warranty and that the US ROM does not include es_ES (Spanish from Spain, not from US/MX) language and keyboard support.
c.- Put Wingray / EOS Team nightly ROM. Yes, I loose the warranty also but seems to work nicely (I have a rooted + CWM + cyanogenmod9 galaxy2 phone and I'm quite happy with it).
What do you think it's the best option?
I was about to go with c). and wanted to make some questions in the XOOM/EOS TEAM thread but as I'm a new user, the website does not allow to post there and asks me to put this question in this General forum... so:
ABOUT THE ROM ITSELF:
- Will EOS TEAM ROM allow me to select es_ES (Spanish/Spain) as the system language?
- Will EOS TEAM ROM allow me to select es_ES (Spanish/Spain) as the keyboard layout?
- Will the SPANISH Play Store (market) work?
- Do you recommend using the latest nightly (v127) or the previous one (v126?).
- Will the SD card work as RW in EOS TEAM ROM instead of "RO" like in the official rom?
- Is EOS TEAM ROM rooted by default or I must follow another extra procedure?
- Is the XOOM compatible with CWM (I have it in my phone and I'd like to put it in the xoom to be able to do nandroid backups, recoveries, etc)?
Thanks.
If ICS is getting officially released in your country now, you may end up waiting for one more year to get jellybean ota... definitely you are missing the flavor of jellybean... which option to go to is your call, but I would go for eos ROM for sure. I had one Xoom that was damaged with ICS eos. Then I bought another, the next hour , I was on ICS eos, rooted. I don't care about warranty because I know what to do with Xoom and I know xda is here for free help...
To answer your questions,
Spanish language is supported..
The ROM is is per rooted already... you just need to unlock your boot loader and flash a recovery image, then the ROM ...
With eos ROM, sdcard external is rw ... and always go for the latest as team eos release updates every little while adding features you will never ever see on the stock, and solid as rock...
Anyway, that is what I will do if I were in your place, but it is your call at the end of the day...

Thanks a lot for answering. This answer and the other you gave me in the Q&A Forum have been very very helpful.
I'm really sure that I'm going to flash EOS ROM, I'm downloading the android sdk right now (via tethering from a mobile AP, very slow)...
If you don't mind, I'll ask my final doubts in the other thread, so that people can have a "full guide" there.
Thanks.
Hello. I just got hold of an acer iconia a501 which is running 4.0.3 If it's cool I just have a couple of questions: 1. Should I just leave it as is or are there many benefits to modifying and upgrading the os? 2. If so, I can't quite figure out which process to do in the right order ie rooting, flashing a rom etc. If I could just get the information as to what steps I need to take, I'll be able to find the how to on this forum. I appreciate your help.

Hello, I used to be stock ICS. got ok battery life and performance. I flashed TegraOwners Lollipop rom and it was so much better. Yes its in its early stages but screen on time went from barely 3 hours to 5 1/2-6. With no under clocking. Pretty amazing.

noob needs opinion 3.2.1, on upgrading acer a500
(Sorry for invading your thread, but I did not know where to start asking.)
Hi I feel like I am out of luck. If that is the case, please just treat the backstory as a bit of entertainment.
To upgrade the Acer A500 Iconia Tablet from Honeycomb 3.2.1(oem) to something more current, perhaps IceCreamSandwich 4.0, can I download a file to a microSD card, plug the card into
the tablet, and get the upgrade? I read somewhere about a file called update.zip. Is the process just this simple/easy?
BackStory:
This tablet is hard to love as it doesn't come with any sample media, or even any file-manager. Once in a while it crashes to the home screen. But another feature I really want is to take screenshots. That is why I want to root the A500.(Problem0 Recently, the lockscreen failed. (My password is made of letters, whereas the A500 would no longer display the virtual keyboard, only the virtual numeric keypad!). therefore I did a cleanWipe reset of the tablet. 'Android version 3.2.1; Build number Acer_A500_7.014.02_COM_GEN2'. Problem0 fixed.) Problem1: I am a newbie w poor computer skills. Problem2: I am a newbie w poor computer skills.
I register the tablet w Acer, and then install ICS A500 Update from Google Play Store. (ICONIA TAB Update Enhancement, Acer Inc. - March 18, 2012: Application_Acer_2.2. 120307.3_A32H_A.apk)
Next I go to settings... and click on Acer System Update "check now" button. But the only message popup is 'Network coverage is currently poor. Please move to a location with better coverage to continue.' Funny as the wifi indicator indicates the signal as very strong. I try signing into Acer.com support, but it says 'your email (id) is not recognized'.
Questions:
1. Should I upgrade to something newer than the built-in Android 3.2.1? and if so which version?
2. Should I root? (How do I root? Is a PC required to do this?)
(3. Do I first need to get Acer software/drivers for PC?)
(4. What is a good app to use to backup Acer A500 to PC?)
Thank you for your attention; a frustrated A500 user,
J.
