I tried doing a restore via CWM on a VZW tab and when it rebooted it just hung at the Samsung splash screen. Any ideas why?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] beestee:
So I decided to go ahead and try this. Just minutes ago got it up and running using the bootstrapper app and the post on page 49 to get some direction once I got stuck at the samsung screen.

I just put a new class 10 32 GB patriot card in my tab yesterday and didn't realize it needed to be unmounted and formated before CWM could do it's backup and restore during the ext4 conversion. Luckily I still had the card that came with the tab and it had just enough room to do the backup, convert to ext4, and then do the restore.

Once I made it through the ext4 conversion, and back into android, the haptics were going nuts. It seemed like swipe and sync were FCing constantly based on my snooping. Went into the privacy and security settings and did a data wipe from there and it seems to have resolved it as both are accessible and there are no more haptic FC indications. I will mention that I had to re-activate the device when I did this reset. Whatever, it is working and my tab is not borked...at least not yet :o

I am definitely noticing faster booting with ext4, about 1/2 the time of rfs it seems. And I think I finally have a stable, reliable backup now that everything is sorted :)

I have the VZW Galaxy Tab and I too am stuck on the Samsung boot screen after flashing the new image and rebooting...would appreciate help and next steps...
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Shiftyshadee:
I think it was because I tried to restore from the backup it made when CWM converted me to EXT4. I reverted back to stock and flashed CWM again via the VZW bootstrapper app. Everything has worked fine since then. I've successfully restored from backup a number of times now.

Where are the files?

I've tried for a few days now, to download the files necessary to begin flashing cwm. The links just lead me to opendns searches.

I'm guessing it's offline, for whatever reason.

Is there no other way to flash roms on the g-tab, except for cwm? Seeing how many issues there have been to make cwm work on all devices, it kinda makes me wish there were a command line process that could be followed.

Sure it would be slower, and take a lot of typing, but it might also be a bit more surefire.

Then again, I'm no programmer and I admit I don't know what the hell I'm talking about.

Whats are the benefits of doing this over Roto-JMI? Will this method make Tab more efficient? This method is not available for ATT tab right?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] LetsGoToWarr:
I'll tell you what, I just got a new verizon galaxy tab and rooted it almost instantly with z4root.

Then I saw clockworkmod and jumped, I come from Mytouch 3g & 4G so I'm very used to clockwork. I went crazy trying to get this to work.. I'm sorry I won't pay 2 dollars for something I can do myself.. never working with a samsung phone made it hard. I soft bricked several times then out of nowhere I was booted up into clockwork mod and the phone fixed itself.. after that everything was good but I just want everyone to know this is not an easy process.

For those that get stuck at the samsung screen after using bootstrapper or after anything really turn the tab off and then wait for the battery icon to pop up. After that hold volume up and power until you see samsung then let go of the power button.. you may not even see samsung just let go as soon as the battery screen is gone. You should boot into clockwork mod if you installed it.

Like pushing the image via "recovery" in heimdall?

Then proceed the CWM steps?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] rotohammer:
Yes, indeed that fixed it.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] daniel.weck:
I've now edited the source as per your recommendation (I tried "git pull" and saw that you haven't push any official changes to the code repository yet).

A few days ago, I flashed JM6 using the "Kies method". Everything seems to work fine on my Euro/UK Tab, should I re-flash the modem.bin using the "Odin method" ?

Many thanks for your work !!

Cheers, Dan
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Benjamin Dobell:
I haven't push any updates recently however I'll make a new release, version 1.1.1 with this and a few other minor changes (documentation updates) etc. shortly.

In regards to the reflashing the modem, a good rule of thumb is "if it works, leave it alone" ;)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] risq:
So i have a Stock CPW GT on JJ7, totally unaltered apart from root.

How do i go about getting it dumped so we have a ROM /Kernel for use with this BETA?

If anyone can advise i'm willing to dump my firmware.

Cheers,
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] sedde:
Cant you use roto backup and pull the kernel ?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] malogabob:
link not working
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] risq:
Ill give it a go with Roto's backup. My question is now we have this in BETA form, will it allow us to go from JMA back to stock JJ7 without issue. As we all know at present once you go onto the dev firmwares you cannot seem to get back to stock firmware with some seriously fiddly and risky frankenflashing!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Chainfire:
Sticky? Sticky!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] risq:
So I'm just doing Roto's back-up now.

Does the kernel need to be modified in anyway? I might just wait and see what happens with someone more brave than I am. Don't want to mess with anything firmware related until It's set in stone i can recover to stock, simply because I've had 2 hardware fails and luckily they haven't checked the ROM versions or I'd of been poop out of luck. If it were to happen again however, I'm sure they'd look more thoroughly to avoid replacing it! :(
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] sedde:
Someone correct me if i am wrong, but patching a kernel cant brick your device can it ?

I mean its software related, so either a hard-reset or in worst case scenario a full flash would take care of that isnt that so ?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] Yaotl:
What exactly was wrong with the VW version? I had it, ran it, and made a backup with what I thought was no problem.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] rotohammer:
Nope, you can flash a jpg image as a kernel, it wont boot, but you can just flash back a proper zImage and all will be fine. Its the bootloader and secondary bootloader that you don't want to fool with.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] The Physician:

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] alterbridge86:
I just flashed the modified kernel and booted up Clockwork with no problem. Just created my first nandroid backup too without a hitch.

This is on a T-Mobile tab for reference.

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] nugalonious:
I added

Hope this helps.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] cruiserbax:
Yes, just flash zImage to kernel and recovery with tab in download mode. Vol-down + power.

Also you might check out Boushh's Kernel it is very nice but it doesnt convert right and only the cwm zip worked right for me. I flashed this kernel with the market app because it is easy and supports development. Then I downloaded Boushh kernel zip and flashed from cwm, golden now.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] sil3ncer7:
Sweet thanks, Another thing..

So can I just heimdall the zImage then flash say CM7 ? or do I have to go thru the adb steps?

From what I have seen the zImage has CWM so if I can flash the zImage and get to CWM, then in theory I should be able to backup then go straight to the new rom... Right?

Still trying to figure out how to adb on the Mac so if I can do this w/o adb that way I wont have to dig for the w7 netbook.. lol
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] TheGrammarFreak:
Yup, Heimdall to install this kernel/recovery. CM7 is also installed using heimdall at the moment: download the zip, unzip it and read the readme.

On a GSM tab I would recommend using Paul's kernel from the MCR, found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=925760

It does exactly the same thing, just more reliably. I don't think ROM manger is fully supported though (not that this matters, it's quicker and easier in the end to do it all manually)
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] sil3ncer7:
For some reason I cant get Heimdall to connect up to the tab. Looks like the libusb is saying I dont have a c compiler and it seems that the gcc.pkg I installed from the xcode tools file isnt working. ugh

The Bootstrapper from the market has stopped working on my VZW Galaxy tab, and the manual method doesn't work either.

After booting the boostrapper from the market, it makes a backup, converts the filesystems, and then reboots. From there, it hangs on the SAMSUNG screen.

With the manual method, the system reboots into stock recovery, not CWM. When I reboot again, it also hangs at the SAMSUNG screen.

Could the new rom manager install CWM from itself?

Or should i follow some other instructions?

1) backup that stock firmware in case of need (guarantee)

2) install a cooked fw from xda to improve performance

3) possibility to revert back to my current stock fw in case of need.

any help how to do that?

I would appreciate if I can get some help.

I have a Euro Tab, unlocked bootloader.

Was trying to get EURO kernel up (by richardtrip) and figured that all I needed to do was to flash Clockworkmod Recovery and flash it (just as on my HTC Desire HD).

So I dled ROM Manager, installed Recovery (2.5.1.3 if I recall correctly) then flashed the kernel, and of course got completely stuck.

Found this thread, restored the original kernel and recovery, and then did the steps that Koush mentioned (9 steps in case we don't have access to bootstrap application).

However I still fail every single time.

After "adb reboot recovery" the Tab restarts into recovery and then I get this screen:

Needless to say I don't know how to proceed and I would be grateful if somebody can point out as to what I am doing wrong.

From what I can figure out my file system didn't convert to ext4 and that's the reason for all these problems.

Do I maybe need to wait some time before I restart into recovery after sync command?

Also the only storage I have on the Tab is the internal...I do now have any microSD installed.

I repeated all of the steps twice, but still no go.

THANKS!!!
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] TheGrammarFreak:
You need an external sd card for the ext4 conversion to take place.

Dazed and confused

I have read literally every single post on this very long, very confusing thread in an effort to educate myself prior to diving in on installing Clockwork....and I still have do not have a clear understanding of how to go about it.

Sprint sph-p100, rooted, kernel 2.6.32.9, firmware 2.2.1

If one of you guys/gals that has successfully installed CWM on your SGT could please take the time to post a current working method with working links to any files needed I'd be thrilled to buy you some beer!

You sir, are a genius. Or incredibly lucky. Either way I don't care, because this worked! I've been trying for a week to get CWM on my Sprint Tab, and this is the first method to actually work.

My only addition is that after steps 1 and 2, I didn't see CWM. I saw the stock Samsung recovery. I went ahead and did the full wipe with the stock recovery. It hung on the Samsung logo, so I powered down and rebooted back into recovery. Bingo! CWM started converting my file systems.

[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] milomak:
a question to which i am still to get an answer despite asking a number of times
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] TheGrammarFreak:
Don't use the clockworkMOD in this thread, or the one from ROM manager. Use the MoDaCo custom kernel. It has ClockworkMOD built in
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] milomak:
Thing is i did the clockwordmod in this thread when it came around.

it works. i have ext4. i am even running paul o brien's ROM (or is it kernel, can't remember). But he provided one which didn't need to mess with ext4 and all that if you had already done so.

my question is with future stuff. and really more specifically. the instructions here say to download ROM Manager. But no mention is made what to do as a European Tab holder when presented with options.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] TheGrammarFreak:
Don't use ROM manager then. Turn your Tab off, then turn it on with vol. up held down, and you end un in clockworkMOD. From there you can manage backups, install ROM's etc manually. It's stunning how Koush still says that the Galaxy Tab is supported by his application; it's not.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] RunTimeWorld:
why are you not offering EURO boot CWM via payed Rom Manager?
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] milomak:
i am fully aware of booting into recovery manually. in fact i installed modaco rom using the same method.

my concern is specifically about ROM Manger being recommended in the OP yet when it comes to the Euro tabs, no guidance is given. Who knows, it may even lead to a bricked Tab.

So I strongly feel the answer to the question is still very relevant as it may be the thread that some other user uses to their detriment.

Having had experience with my N1 and Clockworkmod/Anon; I knew that ROM Manager is not necessary. That may not be the case for someone else.
[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] LuckOne79:
Please Guys, do what has been said by "TheGrammarFreak ".
