Upgrade Tab T849 to Gingerbread?

I have a T-Mobile T849 Tab.

Is there a way to update to Gingerbread?
Kinda important cos of the problems with Bluetooth in 2.2.

First off...GREAT Forum everyone...good info , Hate to make my first post in this forum one that brings a thread back from the dead...noticed this thread was about a year old so I truly am sorry but I have been searching the forum and the net for info and links on doing the flash to the overcome custom rom but all links are dead I have found...

anyone have success lately in upgrading the t849 to a custom rom and has the working links still?

thanks for your time

Try here: [ROM][2.3.6] Overcome Rom 4.1.0 new links - xda-developers

Make sure you read the whole thread before starting.
And ALWAYS make sure you have time to do it slowly.
Don't do it when you are in a hurry to go out or something.

Yes, I upgraded mine successfully (when I still owned this device). Follow the instructions posted above.
