Hi,

Maybe waiting for the masters can be better but I can advice you to flash rom with re-partition option can solve your problem. Or you can convert filesystem to RFS from EXT4 first. You are (were) using EXT4, are you?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] DarkPal:
Google music FCs on stock Gingerbread as well. Just tried it. hope it Helps
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] vivekp1000:
Work well , thank u :)

Followed the instruction and everything worked well.

All modems are included so no need to hunt one down , just flash -> flash -> wipe , tadaaa :cool: , its done

I flashed it upon overcome kernel w/o any glitch or problem so go ahead and flash :D
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] tupo05:
I did re-flash again with repartition checked and gt-p1000_mr.pit. HUmmm I don't think I was on EXT4. My tab was not booting for a long time due to locked bootloader.

I forgot to mention something. When I go to recovery mode, I get this:

E:Can't open directory /system/app/ (no such file or directory)

copy application failed

Oops... Where are the masters?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] thepittbull:
Probably playing golf somewhere or painting... ;-)

Sorry, it's a corny joke... couldn't resist! :D

Just curious, after the first flash, with the pit and the tar in phone... you mean it's stuck in the Download mode? If so, you'll need to hard-power-down, as in... hold the power down for a while till it shuts down, then boot it up again...
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] skd:
Good joke master :)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] tupo05:
No. It first starts with errors after the first boot. Please check my threads 256 and 260.

are the bootloaders of the GB signed?

or if i upgrade to GB i'm capable to load custom kernels when samsung publishes the sources??
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Suleeto:
No offense to the OP or the others outside of US borders who are happy for this, but I need to see two things before I take the leap from my stock AT&T rom:

1. At least three testimonials from US AT&T branded Tabs that are working with 3G and no glitches.

2. Evidence that this truly improves "performance" on a GSM Tab, and explaination of what "performance" constitutes. Testimonials of "it feels faster" aren't good enough, psychology proves that to be unreliable.

I'm all for flashing ROM's with improved features, performance gains, and that have less restrictions, but so far this just seems like "something to do for the hell of it", and not like there are established or (better yet) documented gains for doing this... especially on an AT&T branded Tab.

I use my Tab exclusively as a tablet, because I have an Aria for my phone needs... so please exclude "now you can make calls" as a motivation for this.

Again, this is not a flame on the OP or all the other brilliant device doctors here on XDA, just some valid questions and expectations for US AT&T Tab owners who might not care about phone calling, but want their Tab to AT LEAST work as well as it did or better... and to justify verifiable gains from this (if any?)

Oh, and I use Firefox for compatibility reasons, so improvements to apps such as the Samsung Browser are also irrelevant in my post.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] antiochasylum:
I have an ATT branded tab. Everything works as it should. There are no FC's or anything, my only complaint is that the soft keys stay on all the time when the screen is on, VERY annoying when the tab is in the dock. VERY bright. However nothing a piece of cardboard cant cover up lol.

Gingerbread overall is a better experience. The back end tweaks from 2.2 to 2.3.3 are phenominal. From better graphics, to a better task killer, memory usage, ram usage, all that. It honestly doesnt feel "faster" than my 1.4OC'd overcome 1.6.4 with 2.2.1. Quadrant suffers hardcore due to the RFS filesystem. 1006 on quadrant, 2521 on overcome. However games play BETTER on 2.3.3. NOVA 2 plays awesome on 2.3.3.

In all honesy I just wanted gingerbread on my tab. However remember now that we have it, the roms will only get better. Once the source code released I assume we'd have ext4 conversion and such. Then it will be complete. So IMO, i'd wait. Your not missing much. Unless your using a STOCK ATT ROM, then I'd go to overcome. I use my tab as a tab to. I have a nexus one for my phone.

Hope this helps.

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] grukko:
No glitches so far after 12 hours of usage.

As for speed, I do not know of any utilities that can gauge user experience so most of the feedback in that realm will be subjective. If you want metrics for that, no one will be able to provide that.

With that in mind, I must say that the overall speed is GREATLY increased especially in the browser. It is as smooth as my wife's ipad 2 safari browser even with flash on the page. If you don't want to update, then it's really your loss because gingerbread has finally unlocked the full potential of the tab.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] w1ll1m:
My tab wont boot.

It carries on resetting at the samsung logo.

EDIT: It wont format on /dev/block/st110
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Suleeto:
See IMO, the glitch with the android standard keys is enough to hold off in of itself. You didn't mention if you were able to verify 3G functionality...?

The memory aspect of things is where my main interest lies with this... I wish there was a way to measure the actual improvement, or understand it at least... as for task killing, I suppose we always have choice on that via aftermarket alternatives...

It does help... I will have to look into Overcome again. I bought my Tab on the first month of it's US release, so there wasn't much available for the first and second qtr... then I got busy with school, and I imagine much more progress has been made since then. All things considered, I think I will pass on this Gingerbread option for now until more facts are verified (3G??? ON AT&T FREQUENCIES), and a good, glitchless track record is established.

Thanks for your input ;)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] antiochasylum:
3G does work, phone and data. However it also depends on what modem you choose, there are so many that support the 850/1900 Mhz band.

I have the Bell I9000 Modem on my tab and it works great.

And as for market alternative "task killers". I hate them, always have, always will. Since android 2.2 there is a built in task killer. If the phone gets to low on memory it will kill off unwanted tasks. No need to use a task killer.

There are unwanted side effects of task killers that I will not get into, however plenty of evidence to back up why you SHOULD NOT use a task killer :)

Overcome has the Gingerbread rom out. Yes its smooth however not "faster" like I said then my 1.4 OC'd 1.6.4 overcome.

Since your still stock ATT, running RFS system upgrade. If you dont like it revert back to stock. No harm no foul.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] antiochasylum:
Did you do everything the OP stated? Including wiping cache and doing a factory reset as the last 2 steps?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] JAMIE1000UK:
Can somebody confirm?

can somebody confirm wether i can flash the new 2.3.3 rom. Im in the uk using unlocked unbranded version..

firmware is

PDA: P1000XWJJ3

PHONE: P1000XXJID

CSC: P1000CPWJJ3

Its rooted using z4 method.

I think ive confused myself jumping from this forum to the galay tab forums of other sites.. i have searched but getting more n more frustrated as to wether i can actually flash this rom.

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] peacekeeper05:
love what they've done with the browser.

almost as smooth as an ipad..

and what makes it better than the ipad is that it plays Flash a bit better now.

overall UI experience is 100x better than the 'STOCK 2.2 FROYO".

the laggy Notification Pulldown is gone.

Battery and memory management is better now.

there are still minor lags on other applications but i guess that is because of the slow rfs filesystem samsung used.

im sure once samsung releases their sources, kenels tweaks can easily be done providing us OC and and a possibly ext 4 support.

gaming as usual is good. still haven't tested if there are any improvments at all.

overall, its worth the upgrade from 2.2
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] JAMIE1000UK:

Alright ... :) Finally. Long awaited Gingerbread finally arrived. But bump because my tab has asian firmware, now will wait for a little longer for Asian firmware release. Sucks big time ... :(

I know it can be done but do you think I should flash this euro rom?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] foreverwinter:
Everything works awesome. One thing that wasn't noted was to press Vol Down + Power to go to Download Mode before flashing the firs\t one ... then to go to recovery mode press Vol Up + Power until logo comes then release Power.

Tested on an unlocked Bell's Samsung Galaxy Tab (manually unlocked) running on Rogers in Canada. Should be the same as AT&T since the frequency of Telus/Bell/Rogers = 850/1900.

Good luck!!!!! :) Thanks all
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] val5:
It's not pre-rooted....

To root just use cf Root 3.3 from chainfire it self, it work for me

I also came from asian firmware, as we knew that asian must waited a long long way to got firmware update, if you can wait just wait, if not just flash this one

I got thia experience :

1st boot really reallyfast

2nd boot still really really fast

3rd boot after restoring app not really fast ( i even think that it get stuck)

4rd boot same like 3rd boot

Really Need a hand here

Hi guys

I got a real problem here.

My baseband version was P1000XXJK5

I followed the above instructions and I always been stuck on Samsung logo.

Then I retried and I find out that I have error messages on the system recovery:

E:failed to mount /preload (No such file or directory)

E:install_application_for_customer:Can't mount /preload

your storage not prepared yet, please use UI menu for format and reboot actions.

I tried to reinstall old and new firmwares as well but all attempts remain unsuccessful.

:confused:

What should I do now???
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] AnttiV:
To reply to myself, and hopefully to help someone else in this situation...

I tried:

1) downloading again, several times from different servers

2) rebooting

3) using different USB ports

4) running as admin

5) running in compat. mode for XP (using Win7 64bit)

to no avail. Nothing seemed to work and all I got was that disrupted writing of factoryfs.rfs file. Then I though screw it all, I'll take a brake and went downstairs. After eating I was too lazy to climb back upstairs so I used my laptop... and it worked. On the first try. o_O I'm not sure why, since both are running identical versions of all relevant applications (Kies, Odin, Windows, drivers...). Anyways, I'm now running the tab on 2.3.3.. time to customize ^_^

tl;dr: When all else fails, if possible, try another computer. Worked for me.
