Hi guys,
Got my SGT back in December last year. Found it abit laggy these days, so decided to change the file system to EXT4. These were the steps I did:
1. Root SGT using zroot - done within few seconds
2. Check if bootloader is signed or not - not signed
3. Installed Titanium, made backup and copied to 8GB ext SD card.
4. Charged battery to 100%
5. Plugged in to PC (on Windows Vista, with Samsung USB drivers installed) once and wait until drivers recognized tab.
6. Put SGT into download mode
7. Flashed using Odin (p1000-mck-r3-ext4-cwm). Waited for 5 mins, then unplugged from PC. Reboot tab.
8. SGT started converting to EXT4
9. After like 20mins, menu came up with few option, I selected reboot tab.
10. SGT seems to be hanging on screen showing Samsung & Galaxy Tab (bricked?). Unable to reboot or reset using Power + Volume Up button.
11. Plug in again to PC, then flash again using Odin (p1000-mck-r3-ext4-cwm)
12. Odin says PASS, SGT reboot by itself and seems to be working fine.
13. Restored backup from Titanium, everything working fine, except only need to change timezone back to GMT+8.
14. SGT running fine for a day now w/o any hanging, etc. All apps seem to be working fine, in fact it seems to be faster than before.
Despite the initial bricking(?), you guys think I missed or did anything wrong?
I want to try again to flash to Overcome 2.0.1 Hermes for Gingerbread following
thepitbull's guide.
