Guys,

I have good, reliable hosting and have been able to host project files for the Hero without any issues. If someone who already has the files could just get in contact with me, I'll be happy to put them on on my site, Spindash.org.

Also, I found koush's twitter, looks like he's having some hosting issues. Apparently he lives in Seattle, so I offered to loan him my Sprint Tab. Hopefully this goes somewhere :D
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] nzaw4:
wow.... you are awesome!!!

Anyone have the link to the vzw/sprint flash_image???
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] xoreactionzox:
can someone update this links
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] xoreactionzox:
U say anyone with broken gps can try this ???

Does that mean if I do this my gps or maybe my 3g wont work ??
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] jkurl:
I would checkout bauxites OC kernel. He has got it working and stable. Awesome job you just made a whole lot of sprint user very very happy. This is a super big deal again great job.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] cruiserbax:
No, sorry! I was refering to an earlier post about some modem dumps I've done, trying to fix the "no modem for sprint tabs" issue so everyone with broken gps can get it back and we can cook CDMA ROMs with it in there. I will edit that part out to eliminate confusion sorry. this post only changes your kernel and adds cwm. you can always go back to your old kernel if you have a sgs kernel flasher backup. I have one of my original btw if anyone wants it.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] xoreactionzox:
Ok thanks and should I make a back up of mine and if so how or would it be better to use yours
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] cruiserbax:
I just updated the post, download sgs kernel flasher from the market and use that tool to backup your original kernel, it will put it on your SD card under something like, /sdcard/sgs-kernel-flasher/backup/*kernel-the current date.zip, *NOT TESTED* if you need to recover your original kernel just use heimdall to flash your original kernel back.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] idumych:
Hey can you hook us up with copies of the files in the OP? That host has been down all day!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] xoreactionzox:
thanks a bunch i just finished the guide and worked perfect did use the command line way

this was great i am use to htc rooting and flashing sense ive had a evo sense day one and epic but i just dont like odin and all that i dont understand alot of that

but this guide was great and very detailed i know i read it over once and did not get confused at all just for other people reading this dont get ahead of you self in this and i can tell you that mine did work i thought it would considering verizon and sprint tabs are the same

looking foward to your rom keep up the work
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] xoreactionzox:
hey man go one page back on 49 towards the bottom and he has took the time to make a guide and all
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] cruiserbax:
I decided to take the chance and try these modem dumps my own tab in hopes of getting a working sprint modem so everyone with broke gps from flashing can perhaps recover gps functionality. If it brakes mine I can still try to fix it for 28 days then return it if all else fails. I think I'll start a new thread tomorrow for anyone who wants to help test (where are all the sprint tab users with already broken gps? Lol)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] idumych:
Yeah, and how do you suggest I do that when the links in the OP are STILL broken, and NO ONE who was lucky enough to get the files before it went down has been willing to share?

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] idumych:
I'm sorry for being rude.

I misunderstood his post, I thought that the kernel he posted as the OC one he was talking about that's supposed to be flashed afterwards.

Here's a complete mirror, thanks for the links daniel.weck! http://spindash.org/ANDROID/CWM_Tab/

I'm running CWM now, it seems to be working fine! :D Has anyone tried Cyanogen Mod or any other roms on Sprint yet? I still have a working GPS so I'm a bit wary to start flashing stuff.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] xoreactionzox:
Lol its ok man dont apoligize I was just playing

I get lost on this forums to

But I havent tried any other roms yet I cant find anything for the sprint tabs like any rims with the same model framework and I dont know what will hapen if I flash a verizon rom I am grttin another tab in a bout a hour so it will be my test tab
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] nzaw4:
Hey cruiser , thank you for ur hard work. I accidently restored my kernel which was the 1.2 oc kernel, through SGS kernal backup. Now stuck at black with sound on what used to be splash screen after the black and white Samsung logo.

Anyone have stock Sprint kernel? Tries flashing all these kernels still stuck at what used to be the splash screen....

Would the problem be that I just got cwm working and I tried to revert to the kernel prior to cwm converting to ext4?

Sorry if I'm not on topic

if I am going to push something with adb, where should I locate the file on my computer? I have tried putting it just on c:\ and pushing it from there and tried having it in my c:\androidSDK\tools and pushing it from there and neither of them work...

or can i specifiy the location that it should push it from?

Thanks guys, I'm rusty. Havent used ADB since the early days of getting my Droid1.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] xoreactionzox:
i find it easyer to put the files your pushing in the same folder as adb

like i named mine sdk in my c: directory and then put my

files in the adb folder which is platform tools

i hate they changed that folder from tools
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] xoreactionzox:
hey sorry but i skiped a step on accident

i am doing another tab i just got today lol i have 2 now the first one i did everthing

but the second one i skiped the back up sgs kernal flasher

is that a problem or can i just use the other back up that i backed up on the first sprint tab i did
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] momosman:

rooted my sprint tab, which version would i have to use
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] idumych:
As long as both tabs are from the same carrier, you're golden :)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] cruiserbax:
You will be fine using the original kernel backup from your first tab. I can post an original later when I get home. (general statement) Also I see what looks like folks reading my later posts after the guide and applying random steps to the guide... So please everyone take your time and just follow the the steps in the guide post, every post after that was non related to the guide and only talking about future plans. Like I said, my job is very demanding and sorry if I cannot reply to everyone with support as soon as the ask.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] cruiserbax:
Just flash the zImage from my guide to your tab while in download mode using heimdall and it should boot back up as long as the kernel was the only thing you flashed. The oc kernel thats out is not compatable with this cwm, I believe anyway. I am working on an oc kernel that will flash the same as this one from the OP, its just slow going from lack of time. At least we can make backups though!!! If I had to choose between nandroid with ext4 or oc I would go with the option that has nandroid.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] idumych:
+1 for nandroid :p also what good is a fast kernel with rfs lag anyway?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] xoreactionzox:
thanks you have been a realy big help to me and i know i posted here to for people to read carefuly because its a great guide but i got ahead of my self lol because it was my second tab doing it

but i wanna thank you for all the help evertime i ask something you come to the rescue and help out
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] xoreactionzox:
I wanted to asj you one more thing.when.you get time know

If I wanted to restore to stock original cant I just use a tar file like when sprint releases a update like how you can do with the htc phones and even the epi, to restore to stock recovery and all??

I have noticed some errors like usb only mouting when usb debug is on and how it flashes like the white lines when you first turn it on on the samsung screen

I compared both of mine stock and flashed and found that then rooted both and they both had them errors

I believe once sprint releases a update I could just restore to that with odin like on the epic and stuff

Like when you first turn it.on the white.lines kinda flash on the side.of the samsunf

And you can not mount with out debugging being checked
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] idumych:
Koush, if you see this, you are welcome to use my mirror in the OP, I have unlimited bandwidth.

Also, for those of you on Sprint and Verizon who were waiting for the files, please note that if you just buy the verizon bootstrap app from the Market for $2, you don't even need those files, it's total autopilot. I felt pretty stupid when I realized this yesterday since I was waiting impatiently for the mirrors.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] cruiserbax:
You can restore to stock now with a odin pack without a modem so long as you never flash anything with the modem (keep your original until a working sprint galaxy tab mpdem is found) you will be ok. Its located in the main tab dev forum. The lines are something i see even.on my galaxy S with custom kernel, it never hurts it but the debugging on to mount usb is kinda annoying. I plan on keeping this cwm for the sake of nandroid until i have time to work more on mine or a better one is released.

It's okay, ClockWorkMod work fine.

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] mmathai77:
ok well I installed this. CWM works fine but

when i connect my tab into my computer it shows up as a CD DRIVE and not USB MASS STORAGE device.

Any help please? I tried everything I could think of

im using the Sprint Tab
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] cruiserbax:
Try turning debugging mode on, Settings>Applications>Development>USB Debugging.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] mmathai77:
yea i tired that and without that. no luck
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] mmathai77:
how do you remove CWM 3.0 from Sprint Galaxy Tab after this?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] cruiserbax:
Just look in the main dev forum where this thread is and you'll see a ROM for sprint that has two versions, one without modem included so (works fine for me) so you keep your original modem and then a version with the epic 4G modem which brakes gps but is there in case the first version fails to work for you.

i installed clockworkmod via "Euro Tab Recovery Bootstrap" from market and it said it was successfull.

i booted to recovery -> some file copying was starting

when everything was finished and went to clockworkmod main menu i selected "reboot system"

my phone tryed to reboot but got stuck ob the "splash screen" (i think its called. the one with "galaxy Tab" in the middle and "Samsung" on the lower part of the screen)

if i try to start the phone with "Volume Down" i get the yellow triangle with "Downloading..... Do not turn of target!!!)

what can i do?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] cruiserbax:
What version of the Tab are you using? also you might try powering the device off then hold volume up + power then when you see samsung let go of both keys. This should take you into cwm recovery. The first thing it will do is verify that the partitions are ext4 so you said it already did that with success so it should go into the cwm main menu. Try doing a factory reset (data wipe) and a cache wipe/dalvik wipe then select reboot. That may get you booted but you will have lost your installed apps and settings.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] pkoper:
Same question here....

The same thing happened to me.

The tab just gets stuck on the splash screen.

I could still get into download mode and flash a rom with odin.

European Tmobile Tab.

Thanks
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] lambstone:
I'm using an international tab and i pushed the files etc etc and rebooted, then CWM made a backup and restored. When i rebooted my tab, it got stuck at the glowing samsung logo. It glows and fades for a while then my tab vibrates once, then after a while it vibrates twice. This is when something hangs right? What can i do to fix my tab?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] grellanl:
You just need to flash a kernel that supports ext4, using Odin - I used the MoDaCo r3 kernel. Works like a charm.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] lambstone:
Ok i figured out where it all went wrong. (after spending a good couple of hours) The bits in bold where you're "supposed" to download rom manager and flash recovery? NO. You DO NOT flash recovery using rom manager. What the rom manager is meant to do is to provide a way for you to access the CWM without having to hold power+up button. So either you install the bootstrap app, or you could just do the adb commands, after you finish backing up etc. THATS IT. you can flash roms etc etc.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] iamodogg:
Strange issue.. I have tried to find this exact issue, but I can't find it.. I'm sure its out there just nothing coming from my search strings/and looking through similar issues.

VZW Tab. I installed the bootstrap thing.. then flashed recovery with ROM Manager. Now I am stuck with a battery symbol (empty battery).

When I hook it up to the PC and hold vol up.. it just loops to this.. no "SAMSUNG" nothing.

vol down gives me the "Downloading"

So.. what is the fix for this or did I mess something up?

I have the Modaco rom zip'd up.

Downloaded Superuser and Spare Parts from the market along with titanium backup to test that I have root.

P1000L and P1000N Devices

Hi Koush,

I need ask about P1000L and P1000N devices. Them have a different kernel.

So, do you will make a version for them?

How can I help for build this?

Thank you!

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Shalamar67:
I have the same issue as many others, installed the Euro Tab Recovery Bootstrap and ran it. When it was done I rebooted and it hangs on Samsung logo screen.

Next step was supposed to install the ROM Manager but I can't get the Tab to boot anymore!

Any ideas what I should do?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] lambstone:
No, you do not install the rom manager. Don't do that. You'll waste a couple of precious hours like me. The reason that you can't boot and hangs is your kernel. You can try flashing the MCR kernel and use your original rom. Or you could flash the overcome rom or MCR rom. DON'T FOLLOW THE ROM MANAGER INStRUCtIONS. I detailed it in my post above. check it.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Shalamar67:

I flashed the MoCado kernel using Odin and that worked, phone booting now!

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] paulshields:
If you're running a Euro/GSM tab then just move directly to Modaco's kernel which has a fully working clockworkmod recovery for the galaxy tab. Personally I think this thread should be deleted as it just seems to be a car crash for a lot of users. There's no reason to tinker with this if you're able to run the modaco version of the kernel.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] suprajztwenty:
no, sorry, america user here. i had tried 3e recovery (from the sticky thread) and it bricked my tab, luckily t-mo exchanged it for me. now with this new one im still getting the syntax error. otherwise all other commands work like a charm.

ive flashed recoveries to my g1, g2, mytouch and a friends incredible all from this laptop, i dont understand what this error means.

and youre absolutely correct, this thread is a train wreck. i went through all 50+ pages last night and everyone just talks about bootstrap for verizon and/or using odin...far too much clutter and pointless comments in here.

screw odin, cwm is so much simpler
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] carlsbad0331:
Ok, I am realy stumped by this one. I have two versions of CWM installed and running. I have the 3.0 version as well as the earlier one (the one that comes with Rom Manager.

If I boot in to recovery via Rom Manager, it goes to the 2.5.18 version. If I boot in to recovery via the Power and Volume Up button, I go in to 3.0.

Any reason why this would be bad?

Any idea how I managed to do this? Because I have no idea.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] nzaw4:
Wow, so if it doesn't help you Specifically, Then XDA probably should delete it?

Maybe us "CDMA" guys are the only ones really willing to go the extra mile, risking i guess what you guys would call "bricking" our tabs. Just test this out a little more and hopefully would help out other people in the same situation.. IE CDMA

So, with your requests, i guess if you have anything to say about your tab, it better be in the same corresponding thread.IE: If your CDMA, dont even bother looking in a GSM thread, and vice versa...

every body was their damn cake and eat it to dont they?

i ask, and people are very helpful here in XDA, but i most certainly at least try to read the directions and relevant info, and if i can not find that relevant info, i mostly blame my self, since im not looking in the right places... at least that's how i take it when "i cant" find things or answers to solve my problems...

its extremely hard to find the proper answer when people like yourself clutter the thread with "bashing"...but thanks, you proved my point of my last post.

what are you talking about a gsm/cdma thread...this is a clockworkmod thread, i have a problem flashing clockwork...what else is there? i ask a legitimate question and you typed all that crap to try and prove a point...what a waste of time

Has nothing to do with bootstrapper, 'cause I got the same problem yesterday, and that was before I tried to install/run the bootstrapper. However, I tried several things yesterday, i.e. flash CF-root and I used Heimdall for the first time.

I think the "null"-error disappeared after a hard reset.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] alwayslearning:
Verizon owners

like so many here I have sent hours trying to complete the simple task of changing to a better ROM. I too got suck on the white Samsung screen and then on the splash screen. I am now back to stock and will try all over again. But for you stuck I wanted to share how I got back to stock.

I found a zip file somewhere and don't know where, but it contains the stock ROM I wish I could upload it but it is two big (219 meg) it has four files in it,

cache.rfs

param.lfs

system.rfs

zimage

I used Heimdall frontend 1.1.1 (easy to use)

place the system.rfs file in the FactoryFS box;

the zimage file into the Kernel box

the param.lfs into the Param.lfs box

the cache.rfs into the cache box

the Tab then rebooted into a Verizon screen and stayed there, hold the power button until the tab turns off, hold the volume up key and the power button together until you see the white Samsung and let go of both of them, you will be in recovery mode, wipe cache, then do a factor reset and you will be back to stock.
