the only reference I can see for 'CF-Root-TAB7_XX_OXA_JQ1-v3.3-CWM3RFS' is :

'How to Root and Flash the ClockworkMod Recovery on the Galaxy Tab P1000 (running Gingerbread)' :- http://theunlockr.co...ng-gingerbread/

which specificaly states : '3. This method is only for the GSM version of the Galaxy Tab P1000 running Gingerbread 2.3.3, so make sure that this is the device you have.'

if you attempted to flash this on a GT-P1000 running Android 2.2 Froyo, this is the reason for your problem

You are right I realised the problem now, but how I can solve it, even when booting in recovery mode it is giving scrambled screen.
Anyone can help me please.

can you still boot into the Tab 'Download Mode' ?,
& if so can you connect the Tab to your PC & still get the "yellow COM" to show that Odin see's your Tab ?

if so, you could try downloading a 'Stock Rom' from SamFirmware :- http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/
(register or log in, enter p1000 in search, to see a list of stock roms, select a 2.3.6 for your region)
& try to flash that

or try a Custom Rom, see my post :
