[Q] I bricked my Galaxy Tab - I need Your help! - Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi People
I Have a Problem, and the first thing I must say is: If you do not really know how do you can help me, please say nothing. Because, All that stuff you guys would tell me I ALREADY TRIED! So I need a Developer or someone who really knows what I am talking about.
Ok, as first: I am from austria, so I guess, I have the "EURO Tab"
My Problem Description:
I had a custom rom on my tab, it worked well.
then I saw a thread with the newest Official Firmware from samsung in this Thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1004816
- I downloaded the file and extracted it..
- I took ODIN 1.7 and put the PDA, PHONE, CSC in their right places
(And here is the Clue!! >.<)
- I checked:
- Repartition​- Auto Reboot​- F.Reset Time​- PHONE EFS CLEAR!!!​- PHONE UPLOADER UPDATE!!!​
- Then I clicked on START and it successfully finished....
BUT THEN
The TAB was rebooted, so far so good.. but it STUCKS at the FIRST "GalaxyTab" Logo.
I can reach the Download Mode again.
I CAN NOT!! reach the Recovery (Volume Up + Power Button)
Since then, I tried many different Kernels, Firmwares etc... but it is still the same!!
Maybe it happened, because i checked the Bootloader and EFS boxes...??
PLEASE, tell me what to do.
I have been trying for three Days to repair it, but I did not experienced any progress.
If you can help me, and you would need morde details, ask me, I am going to answere your questions.

Hi, I have the same problem
Unfortunately, I have a stock rom and not rooted EuroTab
the tab boots to logo samsung and remains stuck in a loop is the ton. Download Mod and Recovery I'm coming in only a hard reset I get not go.
Please help us.

have you guys try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12315206&postcount=2 ? if you guys can go in Download mode, or the phone is showing : phone - ? - computer , it should work, so you will go back to the stock JMI firmware!

If you haven't yet, get ADB set up on your PC. It will save you a lot of effort. There are plenty of guides on XDA that can help.
Once you do that, you should be able to copy files to your sdcard over ADB and use the ADB logcat command to see what the problem actually is. Then you'll know what exactly you need help with.

Ok man... thank you very much for your suggestions.... but... why don't you just read what I said above?
I already tried to fix it, I did everything I was able to do.
I need some REAL HELP... someone who is going to tell me: "Oh! I know what your problem is, do this and this and you are going to fix your tab"!!

Ok, we get it... You've stuffed your tab. It sucks to be you. My advice is if you want to fix it to take note of what people are actually saying to you.
Your description of the issue is pretty lame considering you Quote: 'did everything', so maybe your issue is beyond help!?
Anyhoo, here's my wild stab at what the issue is:
- your using an incorrect pit file, or possibly no pit file when flashing
- the rom your using is corrupt. Check the file size against the release notes.
Good luck.

oh! yes I am actually listening what the people say
and whenn I say everything, I mean everything I could do...
I tried lots of different Stock and Custom roms.
I tried 4 different .PIT files ...
So look... you said something, but I already tried THIS TOO!
so again people...
IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT MY PROBLEM IS... DONT TELL ANYTHING...
the only one who said something good, was the guy with the logcat idea... but it doesn't work ;(
Cheers

You have a wrong pit file, you have screwed your own tab. I was listening and have provided you with possible information that can help. If you really tried everything, then don't be a douche, and don't bother posting. I would ask the moderators to close the thread.

i think you judge the people whom tried to help you. everybody from this forum faced with this problem, I guess... just because you made a mistake, is not our fault. I agree with what @vzt said.....

sorry, i am just confused... :S
Hmm.. wrong .PIT file... nope. because I tried to flash with all available .PIT files.
thank you

It has nothing to do with the .pit files you tried, did you use the right one with the right rom.
And 2, most people flashing the tab also use Hemdall. I you would actually read peoples posts, and take suggestions before knee-jerking and criticizing someone when they are pointing something out.
Nothing in your posts says that you use the specific .pit with the specific stock rom.
Also which version of odin are you using? 1.3 or 1.7? That makes a difference with specific euro firmwares as well......
but i guess if you wouldn't pull your head out of you know where and just listen to someone who is trying to help you, it wouldn't start a flame war on a site that is dedicated to helping people with device issues.

A) If it boots at all then it's NOT "bricked".
B) If you can't boot to DOWNLOAD mode (Power On+Down) then you've got problems, otherwise you can recover it.
- F.Reset Time
- PHONE EFS CLEAR!!!
- PHONE UPLOADER UPDATE!!!

You rarely need to use these options, don't unless told to.
If use use the "Add Hidden" PIT and Rotohammers complete JMI kernel, then you may be ok.
IF however you have flashed the version with the locked bootloader (ignoring the comment saying not to do so in that forum post), then you've got bigger problems. Did you check if this was the case first? If so then there's no point trying to repair it with non-official firmwares, you'll need to use an official one as base, then unlock the bootloader as per the howto elsewhere on this forum.
I already tried to fix it, I did everything I was able to do.

If you're so confident that you've done "everything" - then don't be a **** when people try to help you, as if you had done so then one of the permutations would've been a solution, obviously that's not the case.

Thank you people for helping me.
Hmm... If I say that I have already tried to recover the Tab with many different Official ROMs ... and mostly with the p1 hidden. Pit ... did I do something wrong?
And yes, i think i was dumb enough do flash a locked bootloader :$ ^^

You've flashed an "official" ROM over a custom ROM? Including the locked bootloaders? Seems like quite a bold thing to do (though I've done it myself)... Also ticking those buttons on Odin - clear EFS etc. Was that done for any particular reason?
As you've now got locked bootloaders you won't be able to flash any custom ROM, and you won't be able to unlock the bootloader until you've got a functioning tab again. So your only current option would seem to be to flash JMK or any other official ROM again. Either try again using Odin when device is in download mode, or unpack the files and use Heimdall.
I've actually installed this JMK rom/kernel over a custom ROM myself as I was curious to know what was in it, and the bootloader unlocker apk worked fine afterwards. One thing you don't have is a bricked Tab, so recovery is entirely possible, but you'll need to be more explicit in the steps you're taking, and also realise that (before you type another frustrated response) most people here would be happy to help you ....

@david_kurtovic
I come again to you and advice one more time to do EXACTELY what you see in my screeshoot, but first:
- make sure your TAB is in download mode (even it shows phone - ? - computer )
- have your TAB ChARGED
- and dont add anything except PIT, PDA, MODEM, and CSC
good luck!!! hope it help
(i have done by my self today just to make sure it will work....from custom rom - to stock, and reverse....)

[Q] Update to Froyo 2.2 gone bad?

Hi there,
Today i decided to install android Froyo 2.2 to my galaxy s(dutch). I did this using samsung KIES, everything worked fine and i was told my phone would restart. It turned itself down but after the samsunglogo (the blinking one) the screen turned black while the bottom 2 buttens are lighted, it doesn't go passed this stage.. Also it vibrates ones in a while, sometimes 1 time, sometimes 3 short bursts of vibration. I still have the phone connected to my computer, what should i do? Jank battery out and pray for startup? Or are there any other suggestions?
Regards,
I had this problem.
If I remember correctly, I removed the battery and powered it on into Download Mode and reflashed it. But I didn't use Kies so it may be different.
Thnx, ill google around to see how to flash without keys, iam gonna jank it out
tried this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=853950
But it sticks on SetupConnection and then sais he can't open the serial comport
ideas?
regards,
This is the Dev section, please move to Q and A.
tried again, went to firmware update start.. param.lfs then complete (write) operation failed... Iam getting a bit scared now!!

you could have done it the following way (as a reference for the future):
*) save the content of your post - delete the post
*) open a new post in the other section of the forum
use the search function and google
I'm sure there's at least one solution for you to get your phone running again

[Q] E: Can't mount /dev/block/stl10 (invalid Argument)

Hello, I'm Luis Henrique. I'm brazilian, so I bought the national version of Galaxy S, the GT I9000B. Yesterday (03/06/2011) I was testing some new Roms for my phone. I was using the Odin3 v1.7. I was going to put a 2.2 original Rom, but I accidentally left the box called "re-partition" checked and pressed start. All other boxes was correct. In the middle of the process i saw it, but I didn't stopped it because I got afraid that something worst could happen. I guess that option half-bricked my phone. I already wiped all data, wiped cache partition and tried to format the internal sd-card. I tried a thousand different ways of fixing it, but it all was useless. I'm not that smart with all this rom, flash, kernell, version stuff. But if you guys help me, I'm sure will try my best to fix the phone, because it's such a great phone...
I'm sorry for this new thread, but all the others didn't helped me at all.
Thanks in advance.

So, Danni_ind, I won't have problem since my phone is a GT-I9000B? I don't know if this Rom was made for him...
I9000B !...really sorry i dont know, but it works on my international model
XX = Europe (I am from india)
danni_ind: hey, I'm having the same problem and your solution didn't seem to work either. I tried both ways using the 512 pit file with odin 1.3 and the also the package you threw into the zip, 803 pit with odin 1.0.
had all 3 files with repartition clicked and still didn't work...
i guess there may be some compatibility issues with the phone if you use the european version of firmware , but the main problem will be solved(partition)... then after that you can use the 1 tar file to change it to I9000B version which you have ? give it a try....
are you sure you selected the right PDA MODEM AND CSC files in the right dialoug boxes ? because once i didn't select the files properly and it was showing the same...check it

Help Please I've Bricked my Samsung 8.9 wifi tab

Hi All
Today I thought I would try to install Jellybean on My tab, I am a total nube at this but thought I could follow the tutorial. First I rooted my tab, then tried to backup the tab but it didn't work and then I thought what the hell I'll just try it.
Now it just shows the black and white Samsung Screen and won't turn off.
When I go in to the Android System recovery a message shows - /cant access to ‘system/csc/XEF/system/
I've tried using Odin and all seems good but I can't get ClockWorkMod to appear on my tab.
I bought my tab in the UK but it got shipped from France so has default language setup in French If that has anything to do with it.
Please help, I've tried following some threads on here but some of it seems to be out of my depth. Could someone explain in simple terms how I can get my tab back to normal?? It would be very much appreciated. I'm so annoyed at myself :crying:
Thanks in advance
Mike

Right, I've been looking at this for 2 days now.
I've noticed that their is a CSC file option on Odin, I'm also in the middle of downloading the stock rom P7310XWLA2 which is the French version of the ROM.
So when it has downloaded should I try to find a CSC file as well as the PDA file to send to my tab?
Please Help :fingers-crossed:

Luckily I've never had to use ODIN with my Tab, however back in the days on my SGS I used it a lot.
So just a few things: you don't have a CSC file, because your tab is a Wifi only model, so don't worry about that.
Also, be sure to tick the re-partition box on the left if you are using a pit file (which at this state you should), this should repartition your internal SD and thus have a clean install.
Good luck
Thanks, but i've got it working and I'm not gonna mess round with it again.
Can't believe i finally got it working!

Simply Put.......FOR NOW YOU ARE SCEWED!!!
this kind of thing happened to me, you are getting the Pen Detect has stopped error right. once you start using Odin to go back to stock from MJ5 you get a loop, then if you flash the right files you can get it to boot, but always give that error every 10 sec. i have not seen a solution to this yet. i had to get my exchanged at best buy ( it was a very painful process on my end ) they had a lot of questions.
but yea, i dont think you will be using your phone anytime soon bruh. sucks but thats what alot of users are going through with the note 3 on ATT.

That's because alot of users are rooting without reading the instructions or threads first. It has been written very clearly all over the att N3 forum that you cannot go backwards from MJ5. Those that choose to do it their way without researching first are now the proud owners of $800 bricks. PERIOD.
I'm sorry for your loss. kraz

Its not always about lack of reading, i read it all and just simply fudged my phone up on my own accord by trying to swap a system file. This is what bricked my phone. and others as well, but yes most are the ones that were trying to downgrade from mj5 to m19 for whatever reason and they get the brick as well.
so weather its Not Reading or Just a F up there is still no coming back from it yet.
Agreed +1

Does downgrading void your Sammy/AT&T warranty? I know that rooting will void warranty, but downgrading technically has nothing to do with being rooted (until you actually perform the root). So if you bricked your phone b/c of downgrading, shouldn't you still be able to make a claim (hypothetically)?

Yes but downgrading does not really down grade your phone, you will have a MJ5 M19 mash up IF it boots. which if they happen to look at will mean you were flashing things to your phone because there are no ODIN packages soooo HOW did you do that, know what i mean. i took the advice of another member, i downgraded to get rid of the CUSTOM Lock (Root) boot. then odind back to M19 again and pulled the update at 40 percent leaving my phone in the Firmware encountered a problem and needs to plugged up to recovery screen. so they could not look at anything on the phone. But if your going through att mail in replacement all of that may not even matter. I had to do that because i was walking into a best buy and knew they would check whatever they could to prove i rooted and messed it up. They could not prove it so i got a new phone.

You I saw that too, it looks like it may work. But as I am not brocked any more due to me exchanging it before I tried it out. If your bricked what do you have to lose. .....I would try it if your not looking to get it replaced.

Step 14 is problematic for us right now b/c a complete Odin package for MJ5 does not exist.
that is exactly where i am having problems
this is what happens
first i boot up my phone and it says
firmware upgrade encountered issue. please select recovery mode in kies & try agian. I tryed kies and it didnt work.
then i got N900AUCUBMI9_OneClickBin and tryed to run it but it would fail and my phone would give me the message Fused 2 > Binary 1
i still dont understand why other people with ATT note3 could do it and i couldnt....... and is the a fix coming?

I'm in same boat after rooting for YEARS...UGH
NOW, My Current Binary and Sammy Warranty are both still at "official" and KNOX Kernal Lock is 0X0 as well as Knox Warranty Void (Both at 0X0)
Also, when Note 3N900A Boots normally before it locks up or (doesn't continue) there is no "unlock or lock icon at all, Just Galaxy Note 3 where right after the AT&T would appear so I'm thinking I'm fine to play dumb "Failed OTA update" and simply go in and exchange it...
Is there another way AT&T could tell its been tampered with if those both say official? If not I'm taking in for warranty and claiming OTA update.
please advise
Thx

Odin fail
I'm in the same boat. My issue is that my internet was messed up and corrupted files that I downloaded. So when I went to root the phone it failed and got me stuck on the firmware screen instead of booting up. Found the files to flash using odin and heimdall. Got the phone to boot up just fine but then kept getting a message that "unfortunately SNS has stopped". I just forced it to stop running and things are fine but now I cannot get back to stock (odin keeps failing) and I can also download the patch of 4.3 (47mb) but when the phone boots into recovery to install it fails on the installation. Has anyone heard of this going on and is there a way to fix it at all or do we have to wait and does this sound like a mash/mix of MI9 and MJ5?
Direct pen input has stopped working
I hate this error message i really dont want to send it in to samsung because i will not have a phone for a while. Anybody have any luck with fixing it?

There is thread in the GENERAL section called MJ5 Restore that will get your phone back to stock MJ5 rooted or not its up to you. but it works i have used it twice and it gets everything back to mj5 no mash up no errors just a normal out of the box phone again.

"Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try aga

"Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try aga
My watch is stuck on a screen saying
"Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again."
I can't get it to connect to Odin, adb, anything...
Can't get it into recovery or download mode.
If I hold the power button, it just flashes off quickly, then straight back into that screen.
Any ideas??
I understand you're in a panic because your device is having issues. But please read the forum rules and search for your issue before posting the same question in multiple threads like you just did. By you posting the same question over and over searching becomes difficult and people are less likely to help. Please try searching again. If you can't find a resolution post exactly what you did, and what files you were trying to load.
I haven't had any further progress.
When I try to flash with Odin, it gets stuck at SetupConnection..

No, but the device does "show up" in Odin. But again, doesn't get past Setup Connection when I try to flash something.
Ok... Fixed my issue.
Just had to flash the MK7 firmware. That was the ONLY one that works.
Thanks all!

Yeah mate,
You just have to download a stock MK7 firmware from sammobile. I don't think it matters which region, I used Australia (because that's where I am).
Then connect up the watch, right click on Odin 3.09 to "open as administrator", make sure the watch shows up in a "COM" port, load the MD5 into AP, then start.
Not sure how much more detail I can give.
Good luck guy!

That's exactly what I did but for some reason mine is not working
I got the same issue. When i do it, im still stock at "SetupConnection.."
By the way, im from Denmark, so which region do i have to choose? Cause, denmark is not on the list.
And, what were you flashing at first when you bricked your Gear ?
A friend of mine went through the same problems 2 days ago, he tried to flash directly Tizen 2.2.1.1 over Null_rom (Android), and it went bad like your Gear.
I found out he needed to first flash Tizen 2.2.0, the very first Tizen version that came out.
This version weights 200MB+ than the latest.
I guess it's all the Android -> Tizen conversion software and tools that are embedded, and if flashing a newer Tizen version directly, it fails because of this 200MB+ stuff lacking in the rom.
Is it what you did too ?
I don't know if this is documented somewhere down here, didn't searched before reply.
