Roms for sch-i800 - Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there any custom roms that work for the samsung galaxy 7inch verizon tablet besides the cubed rom? I really would like to try something new. Any ideas?

I have been running the stable cm9 on my Verizon galaxy tab without any issues at all.
Just goto get.cm and search for p1c in the stable section and download the latest version. I do believe you need cwm 6.0 to flash it. There is a really good link on how to flash ics on our tabs here: http://geekniggle.blogspot.com/2011/12/loading-ice-cream-sandwich-on-verizon.html. I followed this guide and it worked perfectly. (Hopefully I didn't break any xda rules by linking this.)
Best of luck to you. Just don't miss any steps from that link.

i know you didn't ask me but i've been running cm9 for a while now the rc version. very stable no problems on my end. but i was just gonna flash the stable version but someone mentioned something about having cwm 6.0 in order to flash it. i just checked their site and only the 5 something is available for us. please someone correct me if im wrong.

I have a sch-i800 and i have been running cm9 on it with no problems. I am now running cm9.1 stable you can get it from http://get.cm. The Verizon tab it the p1c also download the gapps from http://goo.im. you will need these 2 files to get things working properly with ics on your verizon galaxy tab.

I've been running cm9 since the beta stages. I would definitely recommend it for anyone now that it's stable. Just flashed 9.1 myself last night and it is solid.

Does your battery drain while the tabs off?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk 2

Not normally. There was a bug in cm9 (not yet in cm9.1) where I would get the black screen of death and it would kill my battery. I would have to hold the power to force reboot to restart the tab, but when it is in normal standby, no it doesn't drain my battery.

Funny.... right after I posted this about not getting the black screen of death in 9.1 I checked and my tablet actually had it. So I guess the issue is still there but it isn't a breaker in my opinion.

Thanks I'm going to be doing this when i geg back from rhe gym spellinnggg

sooo I downloaded the p1c file. which file is this from the tutorial you posted??

That is the full Rom, should be a zip file. You can't flash it until you get cwm 6.0 recovery on your tab, which if I remember right is the first couple of steps.
Just download everything the tutorial tells you and follow it, don't miss anything.

Yeah. It's so much better

Well, now that you are on ics, CM10 Jelly Bean nightlies have just released as of last night. First nightly yesterday and it is solid as can be. Havent found one thing that does work. GPS, blueetooth, 3g, wifi, camera, all working with zero workarounds.
Just wanted to point this out to you. Check the nightly section at get.cm under p1c. Runs smoother then cm9!
Sent from my SCH-I800 using xda app-developers app

It is nice but it stops supporting flash. Although there is a work around. Do you how I can make the theme the same as cm9 I liked it simplicity
Sent from my SCH-I800 using Tapatalk 2

Just add a different launcher from the play store. Either adw or nova. Should give you the ics feel.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app

There's no way to just have the status bar like before?
Sent from my SCH-I800 using Tapatalk 2

Not that I'm aware of honestly. Not sure if there is a ics launcher that puts that back or not.

Does reflashing CM9 rom rebuild simlink?

Noob question: Does reflashing the rom rebuild the datadata-data/data simlink? Thanks.
Sent from my SGH-I897 using xda premium
Did you flash the datafix.zip?!?! Why would you do that it was for ICSSgS
Sent from my SGH-I897 using xda premium
Just installed chrome beta and was starting to run into memory issues. I was pondering flashing the alternate fix that was just posted in the CM9 thread. I wanted to be able to easily revert if it slowed down my phone. I haven't done anything yet.
Thanks

Don't do it if your on THS ICS, only ICSSGS. And if you flash it again it will rebuild the symlinks...

Thanks.

To answer your original question. Reflashing the rom will restore any symlink. But Demonwav's zip should auto restore, but keep in mind it was made for ICSSGS wich is different.

Best Stable ROM?

Looking to use a new ROM, I want to get off Honeycomb. I need something just stable. ICS or Jellybean is what I want. I need the 4G working as well on the I957. Thoughts/Recommendations?
I've been using nrvates's and am happy with it. I've been running it about 3 weeks now.

The cm10.1 4/19 build along with modified kernel work perfectly, fixes GPS too! Just look through the last 4 pages of the cm 10.1 thread and you'll find it.

Thanks for the tip on this, it runs as good or better than any other AOKP based rom that I've tried and I really like the theme. The new ribbon format is awesome! Don't know if ATGAdmin browses this forum anymore but I've downloaded the 5/23 gapps 4 different times (yesterday & today) and it comes up corrupt and won't flash.
Upon checking with Winrar, it seems that the META-INF folder with the script is the culprit. I got around this by extracting everything but the META-INF folder and then archiving it in the 5/18 gapps replacing everything while leaving 5/18 META-INF intact, this worked great.
So dparrothead1, thanks for the heads-up and ATGAdmin, thanks for the terrific rom. Hope you decide to give the forum another chance and reopen your thread.

I've been trying to get in touch with him. His XDA pm is not accepting msgs and his androidhosting site has no contact info.
He has a a 5/24 update so it looks as if he is updating along with the AOKP nightlies. As much as I like this ROM, I'm having a hard time using something with no support.

I was just in a mini dialog with him in another forum for the new Hisense Sero 7. I told him about my issue with the 5/23 gapps but he told me that he's flashed them many times with no problem. Maybe they became corrupt afterward because there's definitely something wrong with them now. I remember reading last night that the host had a power outage around the time I was downloading, maybe the file became corrupted on the server.
Anyway, as I mentioned I worked around the gapps and the 5/24 nightly is working well.
Here's a link to the posts with ATGAdmin: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=41798468&postcount=28
EDIT: Here's the latest post from ATGAdmin, he uploaded a new gapps and all is well. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=41800432&postcount=31

I'm not using this ROM. The ROM creator has made it fairly clear that he is not going to support this on XDA.

ROM's offered in ROM Manager

I've seen cm ROMs being offered to our device and used them myself but saw "Shoredroid". Has anyone tried these ROMs? if so are they worth our time?
Sent from my MB886 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I don't suggest using ROM manager ROMs at all... Or anything from it. It didn't get it's nickname "ROM Mangler" for nothing xD. Stick to Goomanager ROMs and use get.cm for CM nightlies.

Just stick with what we have here.

The cm roms worked fine from the program. Just didn't like the 4.3 since it drained the crap out of my battery... Went back to stock. Just looking for something different.

If you're also using recovery from ROM manager (photon q) you'll want our official one. And just find a ROM in the development section here and flash away. Just remember to make backups and wipe stuff.

There is no best ROM/Kernel, try them all and see which "best" suits you.
