Android 4.4.2 KitKat is now available for Galaxy Tab P1000

Android 4.4.2 on Galaxy Tab P1000

I just surprised. It is almost unbelievable that my first generation of Samsung Galaxy Tab GT-P1000 has just received Android 4.4.2 KitKat, thanks to CyanogenMod 11 custom ROM and especially thanks to terenceng who posted the ROM on a forum thread in XDA-Developers forum.

Galaxy Tab P1000 is almost 4 years old. It is only powered by 1GHz CPU with 512MB of RAM. With such quite low specs but it receives the KitKat custom ROM so fast is unbelievable. Love to have P1000 in hand with the Android 4.4.2 KitKat. It makes may Tab useful again :)

This build comes with several new features such as TabletUI (the UI can be tabbed in dual-pane), Google Home Launcher, Google Now, and more. Most of apps also run on ART mode without any problem.

If you want to install this build, you also need to download the Google Apps aka GApps (Banks GApps works well for most ROMs).
