The Jelly Bean mobile operating system can now be installed in a number of Android devices, thanks to a wide range of custom ROMs released by developers in the six weeks or so since Jelly Bean was launched. The Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7 series, comprising models P6800, P6810 and LTE I815, now joins the list for the unofficial CyanogenMod 10 (CM10) based Jelly Bean ROM.
Thanks to XDA senior member locerra, the Galaxy Tab 7.7 series can now benefit from the butter-smooth experience of the CM10-based Jelly Bean update, with performance enhancements and custom features for a complete, personalised Android experience.
Since the ROM is still under development, it may harbour a few bugs and certain features may not be fully functional. Here is the complete list of known issues, as cited by the developer:
Known Issues
- CM10 is in a primitive state, many features are still missing or do not work
- HDMI dongle does not work
- Some USB keyboards are not working

Hello there!
I have a galaxy tab 7.7 p6810 and I am still running Honeycomb..I am not an expert so I've never made any flashing procedure but the last few month the tablet is really running in "slow motion"! So I decided to upgrade to Jelly bean. I've seen yout youtube tutorial and tried to download the cm-10-20120903-NIGHTLY-i815.zip file from xda developers but unfortunately had no luck, as the link seems to be broken, or the file missing from server. Would you be kind enough to address me any link that is working from which I can download this rom or any other latest rom for model p6810? Also can you please tell me if this Rom supports Greek language in languages menu? THANK YOU IN ADVANCE for any guidance and assistance and have a good day!
