Here is the 100% working method. No chance to fail. Unless you make a mistake somewhere.
Download Stock ROM from below link. (thanks to Chainfire)
With bootloaders: http://www.multiupload.com/IZLCKQ3VJC
Extract the zip file to a folder. There after extract the .tar file to a folder.
Open Heimdall (you should know the drill how it works) place the files from extracted folder in respective fields .
At the place of modem, do not use the one from extracted folder. Use the link below for JPZ modem
http://www.multiupload.com/F9Z64KG9XO
unzip the file and extract modem.bin, copy in phone.
Now hit START.
After completion, reboot & immediately go to ODIN 3.1.7 download mode Oops! that’s how I worked (Heimdall & then odin ). Flash dbdata.tar as PDA (NO repartition) found in the below link.

Reboot and relax a little. As you over worked
It will boot to Ginger 2.3.3
Still you cannot flash custom ROM’s for that you got to reboot in Odin one’s again.

copy the zip to internal SD
go to recovery, choose zip from internal SD …. Flash!
I’m waiting for BoyPPC ROM as he might probably come out with the MIUI Rom. As Mr. Alterbridge is not into eye candy stuff his work is too serious.
Is this for all verions of the SGT? IE sprint/verizon/gsm?

I would like to know the same also, can this be flashed with cdma version galaxy tab?

Would be better to title the topic better. If you was browsing teh list it would look like you was asking for help in flashing. It would be much better to make title more descriptive and tag it with [GUIDE] and take away the "??" from the end.
Probably best tu number or bullet point, make paragraphs to separate steps etc, would give it more structure.
btw, you do know that the overcome rom that is linked to in this guide comes with a very complete and precise guide to follow itself anyway?

there was much more then just backup like rooting and stuff. i believe people who jump to ginger all ready went through all that process. i think Appbackup is working like charm plus you can save the apk's and flash to any device. or may be titanium is better not much into it though.
Ganjdroid, i was going through your Miui post. it's not that simple to get them working you know? i wish if some one can incorporate those files in a ROM and make it as a ready made dish Ginger without MIUI is like nothing but Froyo.
Sorry but there just isnt any need for this guide really. The overcome one isnt complicated at all and you can just skip past backup up upps section if you need to.
Plus you have no need to use heimdall and then Odin, you can just use Odin.
You also say to use a specific modem file but dont explain what version of tab that file is for, somebody may be using this "guide" that doesnt want/need that file.
If you want to successfully and accurately flash to GB stock or Overcom custom you should follow the proper guide in the Overcome thread.

The reason behind this post was, i shared what iv'e experienced and there are many who could not successfully port through Odin even i faced a problem with one of the tab. i feel Heimdall for flashing Stock ROM's is more friendly then Odin.

Hi,
For those who have flashed the JQ1 successfully using Odin3 v1.70, can you please advise the full procedure/config for an Android noob?
Understand that it should be:
- Repartition Enabled
- Shall I click "phone bootloader Update"?
- Pit: gt-p1000_mr.pit provided by Chainfire in the JQ1 Thread.
- PDA: P1000XXJQ1_P1000XXJQ1_P1000XXJPZ_HOME.tar
- Phone: Pls advise how to use the JPZ-Modem.zip on the first post.
Edit: found the how to for the modem
- CSC: ¿?
Thanks and pls bear with me.

well, i use heimdall only for stock ROM's for rest i mean for Custom Rom's they made Clockwork.
partition check and un check play's important role also. people just ignore it sometimes while flashing Kernel's with Odin.

this is simple and for all those who think their tab/phone do not connect to Odin.
plug in your usb to the pc. go to device manager. uninstall the samsung driver which is already there. refresh the drivers or unplug and replug the usb cable. will search for the driver and install it again. there u r connected to the ODIN.
have a nice day!

Hi,
i've downloaded "http://www.multiupload.com/IZLCKQ3VJC" but there is not "dbdata.rfs", only a "hidden.rfs". What file i've to put into database.data ?
Many thanks
hallo im a newbie, want to upgrade to froyo, but when i was download this file http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1036193 (Stock Deodexed KB5) odin dint read zip file, how to flash it? or i must convert zip to tar or md5?
help me, i tired to download again, its too big
download mini kies on ur pc and upgrade to 2.2 froyo that way, i did it very easily!
There are 2 downloads in that thread. The first download is a .zip that you flash in ClockwerkRecovery. The second is a .tar.MD5 that you would use in ODIN. Its all pretty straight forward read a little more in the guides and check out the Bible as well. Good luck!
*EDIT*
Be sure to thank @Whitehawkx for providing it

Flash with samsung software
First of all you do not need do unzip the file you have downloaded.
Get Samsung Kies at this address, then put your phone into download mode and connect. And follow the screen.
samsung.com/us/kies
Note to enter into download mode:
- Put the phone OFF
- Hold Power+Volume_Down+Home together
- Connect USB Cable
On the other hand you can find the tutorial about the software named ODIN. That could also help. Do this only if you don't have any other way.

First I would recommend booting your phone into recovery mode and performing a factory reset, then rebooting the phone and seeing if the phone will then startup normally. If that doesn't work I would recommend booting the phone into download mode and then and using Odin to flash the factory firmware for your phone which can be download from here.
Recovry mode
I did the recovery mode and wiped it but nothing it just froze I will download the firmware to use Odin to see if it works

sorry about the super-late reply. i havent really "gotten into" the XDA forums until recently, so i hadnt checked to see if anyone responded to my posts. my bad. anyways. i have "OTA update i437p 4.1.2" its a *.cfg file though, and it contains aboot.mbn, rpm.mnn, sbl2.mbn, ... and a few more. there are also a few folders (recovery, patch, system...). i cant remeber i how i flashed to the phone with odin, but with heimdall you can flash the individual files as long as you include a *.pit for the phone which can easily be create with heimdall also, so i am sure odin can do this too
anyways the file is at https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/47920086/2400258.cfg and like i said its OTA update i437p 4.1.2 . so i hope you have the "p" model. :/
...*update*...
i found this after i had posted, hope it helps.

Rename it to update.zip and save to sdcard and enter recovery mode UP + Home + Power
then just apply the update from sdcard
The phone must be unmodified i mean no CWM and no ROOT*. If it doesnt work try to flash the cellphone with the stock rom

2. place file in root of external sd card
3. power off phone
4. go into recovery by pressing: power button+volume down+home button
5. look for something that says: install update from zip or from external storage or something along those lines
6. click on the file downloaded from the link above.
7. select install
8. select "yes-install)
9. after instalation is completed the phone will go back to the way it looked when you first got it and powered it on

Hello please help me i followed these instructions on how to make i9505x work like normal phone but i got stucked and now i probably bricked my phone
1 - Download Odin, TWRP recovery, Stock I9505 Rom (?) and Adam's kernel ( you can find link for all on this thread )
2 - Boot the device on dowload mode (push volume down, home and power button until the device vibrate)
3 - Flash the TWRP recovery, and wait for Odin return Sucess message.
4 - Copy the Adam's kernel .zip and Stock Rom file in the device ( sdcard root or what you want )
5 - flash the kernel with "Install" recovery option
6 - after that Wipe and Format every thing you can! (system, cache, etc...)
7 - Flash the stock Rom ( may have some error for the modem.bin but no matter )
8 - This may work now!

Please help me
If you will flash normal firmware on I9505x, odin will stop at flashing modem... Demo units don't have modem hardware, so you need firmware without modem, or just download a pre rooted firmware.
1. Rename it by removing .md5 extension, so you'll have i9505XXXX.tar.
2. Open it with 7-zip, delete NON-HLOS.bin and modem.bin and flash it.
