Ok i wrote a guide for those wanting to upgrade their P1000N/ L Galaxy Tabs to Gingerbread. I sold my Tab so i dont remember the exact procedure but i added the missing files to the ROM below since Samsung didnt include it for whatever reason.
In the meantime download either:
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=J25F0F1W - Official Samsung Gingerbread ROM
or
Download this:
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=YSM4LVYW - Overcome's Gingerbread ROM which everyone wants to use
Download this as well:
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=CQ7O094A - Gingerbread Kernel with Root, CWM, etc. etc..
and download this was well:
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=APDI5IW0 - Bootloader Patch (instructions here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=888071)
Step 1
Run the Bootloader patch
Step 2
Enter Download Mode and flash the kernel (if you dont know how, slightly explained in my other topic - http://nontent.blogspot.com/2011/05/samsung-galaxy-tab-blank-screen-after.html)
Step 3
Flash the ROM. With the Overcome ROM you flash it in Clockwork Recovery Mod which is included in the Kernel now. If your loading the Gingerbread rom i did you have to use Odin. And since i cant provide assistance anymore; work with the Overcome ROM
Done
Thats it as far as i can remember...
Note: Use Odin to flash the kernel, i've never been able to work with Heimdall.
So to summarize, Patch the Bootloader, Flash the Kernel in Odin, Enter Recovery Mode and flash the Overcome Rom, Reboot = Gingerbread

Thanks a lot buddy. May i ask you why did you sell your tab and which tab is any are you using now ?
Was grabbing too much attention in public when I wanted to use it. Everyone is on their phone doing their private business and once I took out my tablet I cant do anything without someone asking me "Hey, is that a ......" :-(
So i sold it and bought a phone. Didn't want to.. but I can talk to my honey in peace now
Hi! A question to you, did this mess up with the tv tuner? I want to move to Gingerbread but without loosing any of the capabilities. I have the P1000L version. Thanks!
Last i heard the tv tuner wasnt available for the P1000L. Might be worth checking XDA for the latest news on that. Im sure by now they would've got it working
Giovanni.....Thanks my man!!! You saved me a lot of headache!!! It is just a shame that the government are removing the links so quickly...or in fact at all! :)
Thank you again!
