[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] cruiserbax:
PREPARATION STEP! download sgs kernel flasher from the market (must be rooted I believe) and do a kernel backup as this process changes your kernel.

SPRINT TAB INSTRUCTIONS THAT WORKED FOR ME! MAY NOT WORK FOR YOU!

Ok guys here it is, Thank OP for this product!

I NOR THE OP ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS NOT WORKING!!! OR ANY DAMAGE IT MAY DO TO YOUR TAB! IT MAY DESTROY YOUR TAB AND LEAVE YOU DEPRESSED WHICH MAY REQUIRE YOU TO GO SEE YOUR DOCTOR FOR MEDS WHICH MAY INCUR MEDICAL BILLS WHICH NO ONE BUT YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR!!!

First of all I retested this using the app from the market (verizon bootstrap) and it works the same so please concider support a dev by using the market method.

Attached below are the flah_image and modified zImage.

(I am not sure if this had anything to do with it I just happened to do this step)

1.

First I rooted then downloaded rom manager and flashed the VZW recovery but did not try to boot to cwm.

2.

Follow the OP exactly too step (9) when it reboots into recovery (cwm) it will start backing up to do the fs conversion but it will fail at /data and /cache. it will leave you in recovery.

3.

While still in recovery select factory reset/data wipe when finished also do a cache wipe (yes I know data whipe also wipes cache)

4.

select reboot system, if you let it try to boot it will loop/hang on the SAMSUNG logo, this is not an issue just hold both volume keys down + power key untill it powers off.

5.

while off hold volume up + power until you see the SAMSUNG logo then release both keys! NOTE: if step 4 does not fully power off and reboots just keep holding the keys until the screen blanks again then let go and quickly hold down only volume up + power until you see the SAMSUNG logo.

6.

once it boots back into recovery (cwm) it will start the same backup/conversion process again, this time it will finish and leave you in recovery.

7.

select reboot system and wait for it to load the tab back to froyo. (it will be back to factory defaults with the activation screen again)

8.

Your tab will still be rooted so install terminal emulator and run "mount" to verify that your partitions are ext4.

9.

Power off then boot back into recovery with volume up + power, it will boot back into recovery (cwm)

10.

Do a backup and reboot your tab.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you use the market app just select bootstrap and when it says successful select reboot recovery then start at step (1) above

(DON'T HOLD YOUR BREATH FOR ANYTHING TO BE RELEASED THIS SECOND! I have a very demanding job)

Ok I have started working on a ROM for the SPRINT Tab, at first it will just be a lite-version of the stock ROM to rid it of bloat-ware and other sprint/samsung stuff. While I will continue to work on this ROM I am studying for a promotion board this month that is very important to my career whilst also working on an Astronomy project so it will not be out super fast.

Lastly, I am working on an OC Kernel that can be flashed AFTER you have cwm, it MAY by out a little sooner than the ROM, first compile has lots of lockups so we'll see.
