*NOTE* THIS IS A BUILD BASED FROM CYANOGENMOD SOURCE, THIS IS BY NO MEANS OFFICIAL
As normal, it's not my fault if you fubar your tab by flashing this or if zombies come and speedhump your cat. You've been warned.
Preamble
I am not going to teach you how to use, or set up the applications that you need to use/flash this. I have included links to everything you need to know, just click and read for a second. If you are not willing to put out a little bit of effort to better your experience with your Tab, I am not going to waste even more of my time that could be dedicated towards making my ROM better. Also, if you aren't willing to give yourself the fundamental knowledge required for flashing this and something goes wrong, you will then have the required skill to fix it, instead of blaming me for bricking your Tab. I don't need that. I am willing to support my ROM and help with some confusion, but if you want me to do everything for you- lo siento.
About This ROM
This is my Alpha port of CM7. I call it alpha because it's haxx'd together using the .32 kernel and libs so some things you may want, like the camera, they no workie. Also, I call it alpha because I probably will not be releasing another version of this until I get the .35 kernel ported over from the GSM Source. I do it for the challenge, not the donations and that is my next challenge.
That being said, @poitee and I have been running my builds of CM7 on and off for the last several months, it is very stabe, funcitonal and GREAT on battery life. Also, I still think CM7 is better than HC is almost every way. This has been optimized for tablets thanks to the work of the nook community. I just kanged it and got it working on the Tab.

0615 - Initial Release

Plans
As I said, I am going to work on getting the GSM .35 kernel ported over to our CDMA Tabs. Once that is done, I should be able to get most things working super fast! (note: *should*, remember, imma newb)
Installation
Thanks
jt1134, Adrynalyne, rotohammer, TCMAN, benbowden, supercurio, LulzSec, The entire RootzWiki Team and everyone in IRC as usual is great help. Also, a huge thanks to poitee for giving me access to his build box,that he continually upgrades with goodies that make my life easier. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!
Downloads
Lastly, if you like my work, donate to me so I can donate money to devs that make my world easier (and therefore yours). Also, I want a Tab 8.9 to raep when it comes out. Make a bois dream come true.

Features
- Tablet optimized buttons
- Fast and better than TW
- CM7
- NO TOUCHWIZ!
- More! (Really, there is more, but I can't think of it right now, I'll edit this post as I remember)
- Did I mention CM7? Really, that should be all I need to say.
Changelog
0615 - Initial Release
- CM7.1 (Android 2.3.4) and stuff.
Known Issues
- Camera's don't work
- If the Wifi's don't work in this release, I'll find the zip that has functional wifi, but it should work (I just am not able to test atm)
- Overlay needs some work
- I'm probably forgetting some other things that don't work, but as most of you know, I've had my hands full for the last little while and my mind isn't all that together.
- The initial recovery is fubar'd, but this includes a backup recovery that will work to flash you back to one of my other roms, or HC if you feel like it. adb reboot recovery and the power options to reboot recovery will both bring you into the backup recovery. Just not the vol-up + power (then you'll have to go into advanced and reboot recovery to get to the good recovery)
Plans

Installation
- YOU MUST HAVE CWM INSTALLED TO FLASH THIS
- You will need to factory reset, so back everything up
- Download the ROM to your SDCard.
- Boot into recovery (volume up + power button or reboot recovery if you're on my AOSP ROM)
- Flash the zip. ROM, Kernel, backup recovery and latest GAPPS are included in this package. DO NOT FLASH ANY OTHER GAPPS
