just do as I did… don’t wait for the official firmware in your region/location and just use this one. There is a step by step procedure on how to do it and you will be happy that you did.
I did see a problem with the ebook app though but I was able to fix it by searching a fix in the web.

aswers to ascariss questions
Hi there, I saw you mention that you flashed your 7.7 with the UK firmware, did you have any issues with the process?
- nope i didn’t have any issues doing it.
how would I go about doing it, is there some tutorial someplace?
- i just followed the steps here and it all went fine except for the backups. The backup apps mentioned there didn’t work for me and I’m getting a lot of errors. So I just used kies to backup my data. But when I tried to restore data after flashing some files in my music backup causes errors and would stop the restore process. I just stopped it and tried again unchecked the music from restore.
also will flashing with the new firmware stop the device from being upgradeable via kies or OTA from samsung in the future?
- I think you won’t be able to upgrade thru kies anymore after flashing as I am getting a message in kies instead of telling me my firmware and the latest. But I think once the release in my region/location has been released I will either flash my device with that or kies updated will automatically work… we’ll see what happens.
also is root needed to flash the firmware?
- no

@udo2303 you can wait if you want but if you are as impatient as I am you can just use this firmware to flash your device

bokyako thank you for the guide and links, the tab runs great and finally on ICS
It is blazing fast now and so responsive, browser is also quite fast. Pressing home to the main screen is instant, finally this is what was needed.

Forgot to add, stylus (bamboo stylus) support is much better now, more responsive, and much easier to use than before.

No sign yet of P6800 [Galaxy Tab 7.7 wifi 3G] upgrades in the Netherlands and no indications about when [if ever?] to expect.
Disappointing, Samsung!

I bought my 7.7 3G in Portugal in February and, despite all the publicity about the ICS update coming in July and August, it’s almost October now and NOTHING.
I live in Brazil and the Samsung site here responds to enquiries with stock and useless reply:
“thank you very much for your enquiry. At the moment we do not have any information about updates for the Galaxy Tab 7.7″
I hope that the people from Samsung have a look at sites like this (and Sammobile is excellent by the way) and can see the disappointment, frustration and irritation they are causing by not even taking the trouble to inform the people who paid good money for their products.
If they make promises about updates and do not keep them then they owe us an explanation out of courtesy alone. Apart from that, they are likely to have problems selling products to such customers in the future.
Finally, a request for help from other members or the site organizers. Which of the existing updates can I use on my Portuguese tablet. To help here is some information:
Kernel Version – 2..6.36 P6800XXLA4-CL616407
Thanks in advance

I flashed my tab with ics from Abu Dhabi because I’m working here in Saudi Arabia. Still no updates here in Saudi. I just can’t wait to update my tab. I downloaded the firmware here in sammobile and flashed it using odin. My problem now is that my tab can’t connect to kies. When I’m using honeycomb before, kies immediately recognized my tab but now nothing happened. Is there someone here any idea how kies recognize again my tab?

Hi Sammy blue
I also have a 7.7 with the Saudi Arabia XSG firmware. Apart from not being able to connect to Kies did you have any other issues. I am trying to find out which is the most suitable version of the software to flash for a XSG P6800 model?
thanks
Jonesy
