Firmware: 2.2
Baseband version T959UVKA6

I tried using OCLF, update.zip, tegrak.
I already have superuser on it.
I also already rooted it with superoneclick.
Please help me find a lagfix because when i type and use other apps, it tends to lag.

First, flash to a Gingerbread release.

Overcome v4.0

Hey all, mega n00b here
My story; I was running Froyo on my P1000 until last week, Kies told me there was an upgrade available to 2.3.3 GB which I undertook.
I took exception to the navigation button lights always on. I looked and searched all over for fixes and tried in vain to root my tab. I even installed a new Kernel that was supposed to be rooted - it installed but no root!? PLUS my WIFI was now f***ed and either would not connect or continuously dropped.
Anyway, the installed kernel had CWM Recovery in it.
I found another post that led me to the Overcome ROM & Kernel.
I installed the Kernel first and was shi**ing bricks when all that happened was the word "andriod" flashing on the screen!
After friggin about with CWM I found I could load the ROM from the external SD which I duly did and Voila a working Tab, and boy is it slick.
Now, I have two questions - any and all help greatly recieved:
1.) What is up with the website for the install guide and other files?
2.) What do I need to do to install a modem and which one is most suitable for my tab I am in UK on Vodafone.
Device Details:
Model Number: GT-P1000
F/W version: 2.3.3
Baseband version: P1000XXJPZ
Kernel version: 2.6.35.7 Overcome-v4.0.0 #40
Build number: Overcome 7 Series v4.0.0
IDK and no
OK
So, no modem needed? ...I've not tested the 3G data on the Tab yet.
I found the issue with the w/s...

[Q] switch from superuser to cf-root

guys,
i have rooted my phone to SuperUser. while i have been searching the forums for all sorts of information for enabling call recording on my t999, i found one helpful post (thanks jjlean):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=28535349&highlight=cf-root#post28535349
but it talks about having cf-root on your phone. being a noob, i did a lot of reading to realize that cf-root is a non-kernel rooting mod which comes with its own application SuperSU. (can some of you experts confirm that my understanding is correct/wrong?)
can anyone tell me how i could switch over from SuperUser to cf-root?
cheers!

[Q] How can I get the superuser to work again after update to ICS?

I rooted my S2 when it was still running on Gingerbread.
I just updated it to ICS 4.0.4 a couple of days ago and now the superuser doesn't work anymore.
I didn't reset it to factory default before update so what should I do to make it function again?
Thanks.

Upgrading to ICS lost root. Superuser is just a play store app so it'll stay even after losing root.
Re-root and you'll be back in business.

Upgrade to a Rom with root installed.
