Root cwm flashing - cant go to recovery mode and has bootloop

I know this kind of post is everywhere but i really need help.

My tablet is samsung gt p1000 (galaxy tab 1) and is running froyo 2.2
I wanted to make it 4.1 or 4.2 so needed to root it and add cwm

The rooting part was easy but finding a cwm was very hard. The rom manager has no gtp1000 support so i used odin.

I downloaded a cwm .tar file specifically for gtp1000 and used odin.

Then after rebooting it never goes past the samsung word and shows many lines and that. Trying to go to recovery mode, no luck again as it show those lines again. Also there is bootloop.

What should i do from here? Is this what they call a 'softbrick?' Any help is appreciated. :)
