Custom ROM for specific devices? - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
I just received my Rogers galaxy tab '4G' (3G) and I am wanting to root, unlock bootloader and put CWM onto it. I have already done so with my Atrix 4G, and this process seems fairly easier. My question is, Are there certain ROMs specific to the 3G version? or could I load any ROM on as long as I use the right Kernel? Also are there any 3G users that can tell me what ROM they are currently using?
Thanks,
Tayshun

I'm also new to the galaxy 10.1 section. I found this thread in the development section which proved quite handy and answered my questions.

The rom they show for the 3G model seems outdated. Thats why I was wondering if I could flash a WIFI ROM as I will not be using 3G anyways.

[Q] t-mobile galaxy tab 10.1 4g

Bought the T-mobile galaxy tab 10.1 4g. I am interested in rooting the device so that I can remove unwanted bloatware. I am somewhat concerned by the absence of any comment on the device. I have one week to return it. Should I? Seems that not one single person has an interest in tweaking this device. I thought that this site would have root instructions on line within hours of the November release. I am concerned that it has not. It has version 3.2. Please advise. Thanks.
I too an anxiously awaiting some coverage on this... love the tablet, but dont willing to risk experimenting with it w/o more experience recovering devices.
The largest number of people here by far have Wi-Fi Tabs (P7510) followed by 3G Tabs (P7500). I'd guess about 15-25% have VZW LTE Tabs. Support for the latter dev wise and even from VZW has been pretty light. The good news is the T-Mobile Tab isn't 4G, but 3G HSPA+, the same as the international P7500. The only difference is it supports T-Mobile's funky AWS bands. Depending on how similar it is to the P7500, you may be able to use its ROMs. Post in the dev section and see if one of the P7500 dev's can help figure it out.

Stock recovery?
Question:
Any of you who have rooted found/have a copy of the stock recovery in case I need to return or resale? I've been searching for a while and can't figure which one is the one for the US TMO variant.
TIA

Looks like there is plenty of them, particularly international versions. Model seems to me that is 7500. However, I'm not flashing anything until I find the stock restore for Recovery - my previous post.
(Woops... just realized I flashed CWM Recovery last night in order to root so I could unlock radio . So much for being careful grrr)
Has anyone tried any of the available ROMs?

Rooting and custom rom question

I recently purchased the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 4G for TMobile. Im interested in rooting it and using a custom rom. But most of what I'm seeing if for the WiFi or LTE version.
Anyone know if the TMobile 4G version can be rooted and which custom rom I can used on it?

this question should be posted in the Q&A or General section bro. There are no Roms for that version tablet that I know of yet.
no roms, but you can flash my kernel on your stock rom.

Oops, my bad. Can a mod move this to the proper section?

also in terms of custom roms what would you recommend to a newbie
Did you root your phone ?
if no read this section and root.
SGS2 Bell/Virgin Canadian Thread Q&A (Root/Unlock/Firmware) Modems/Mods
second you need to use odex or deoxed rom for the theme to work.
what kind of rom are you looking for, so can point you in the right direction.
You could use CheckROM RevoHD V4....it will automatically install KitchenPro, and you will have the abillity to install themes directly from there or customize almost everything you need on your phone.
But this means you have to root your device, if you haven't done it yet.

[Q] SCH-i9500 compatibility

Hello,
I'm have a 4G LTE Galaxy Tab 10.1 (VZW), model number SCH-i905, and I want to get rooted and install a custom ROM. I just can't figure out which root methods and which ROMs are compatible with my model. Can I use anything that works for the Wifi-only model with my model?
If someone could help me out, I'd REALLY appreciate it. I want to get up and running but I'm worried to try things out of fear that I might brick my device.
Thanks a lot.
EDIT: NOT SCH-i9500, SCH-i905 is what I meant. It won't let me change the title though.
Roms are limited. With any of the ICS roms I am pretty sure you will lose cell, so no 4G anymore. There was an older HC rom, I think it was LiquidSpeed. I am not aware of any other roms that work with the sch-i905.

[Q] S3 (int) + AT&T - whats the best rom/radio/etc??

Hi,
I have purchased an International S3 and am going to use it on AT&T. I have read through the forums and feel pretty confident about rooting my phone. My question(s) is:
1. Do I need to flash a new ROM to make the most out of AT&T's network, or will the stock ROM work just fine?
2. If its recommended to use a custom ROM which should I use for best compatibility with AT&T? If I must use custom I would like one as close to stock as possible.
Thank you for any/all replies.

bumping for great justice!
Anyone?

ATT OMEGA 7.0 phone won't turn on anymore
I tried to load Omega 7.0 on my ATT S3 and everything went well until the reboot part. The screen went black and my phone isn't able to turn on now. Any advise would be great. Thanks
Sounds like you have the US version
Sounds like you have the US version, I have the international version but thanks for the info either way.
Anyone have any advice for the best radio for use on AT&T on the I9300? I'm on the latest official stock build taking only OTAs so far, but my signal strength seems worse on this phone than others I've used in the past. (Figured I'd check before I start flashing/testing for a few days)
thread closed. choosing roms is a personal thing. what is best for one person (and phone) may not be best for someone else. the best advice is to try a few.
