Bricked on first screen: on 2.3.3 during restoring backup - Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi
i took a backup from recovery mode.
and then tried to restore it from the rooted CWM throught gingerbread 2.3.3 by chain fire.
now while restoring it stuck on the first samsung screen. that just displays galaxy tab logo (black and white one)
its not going to recovery mode now and keeps on jumping back to the first screen when i press power and volume up key.
i m hoping to flash it again to 2.3.3 as its still allowing me to go to the download mode.
will that help ? please let me know any alternative.
your help is highly appreciated.
regards

1st of all , this is not the right place to post your question ... u should post it on Q/A Section
2nd , yes u can go back to download mode . why u didn't try before u post ?
am sure if u try it , u shouldn't post this thread from the 1st
go back to download mode and flash gingerbread back
Cheers

Yeah, go into Download Mode and flash this ROM http://www.multiupload.com/F6D7U1RUHD via ODIN or Heimdall. let it boot one time. After that you can install any ROM you want. If you need help, try the Overcome Guide, it shows you step by step what you have to do.

And if everybody thought like that, this section would be completley useless as all we woudl be able to see while browsing is topics about, "how do I do this?" "How do I do that?" , "HELP please" , "ive bricked my tab, help!" etc etc etc, This section is for devs to post dev projects and reference, nothing more.

a) I have no desire to be a forum mod although if I could I would happily move them. I own and run my own non-mobile related forums and other sites. I'm simply pointing out what SHOULD be obvious to anybody who uses this forum.
b) The thing they should be "remembering" for next time is use the Q&A forum not the dev forum.
Hopefully all this will be solved once the Developer usergroup is created and then they can restrict the creation of topics i here to that group only. That will solve all the dilution of the section.

To all of the senior members contributing to my thread:
First of all thanks to you guys, specially Maxis for providing me the info and i am back to my running galaxy tab .
Secondly i apologised for any inconvenience once again. i merely thought that all the gurus like you guys are attending the development section more than a question answere area, and that since i upgraded throgh that section i should get my query answered more quickly.
i did raise a question few weeks back in Q.A forum. I respect the forums policy and trust me i am a gentleman techie.
But in my point of view if so many rules and regulations are applied then the actual purpose of acquiring information would be more difficult and less effective. but yes i think it has to be related to what the information is required in what manner.
starting this thread may have got me few senior member's notice me and may be you guys will allow me to messge you personally just incase i m to brick my galaxy tab again, cuz i think i will .
thanks again , and for your patience in bearing with me if i can be of any help just let me know any time
cheers

Now, that is a preference question. They are all good. Just make sure you have hardspl installed before you go anywhere. Once it's installed, choose your rom poison and flash. If you dont like the rom, flash a different one. Might I suggest flashing via SD card though. Much safer and quicker.

Received today new galaxy s and I want to flash it

Hi,
I received my galaxy s today and I realy like it. While using it I saw much things get a lil laggy like app market. I want information for the best Rom/Kernel and how I have to flash it. The phone doesn't have CWM or something its just new with the original android froyo. I want to make it fast and let it have more ram free and maybe overclock it an bit.
So please tell me whats the best to do and give me some guide to flash.

Lol, that's nice, you have the phone for a day and you already want to flash it. Welcome btw!
First of all, get the 3 button download mode working on your phone, and if it's working you can think about flashing. You'll also need Odin for the 1st time(it's a handy software to flash your phone).
It's quite a hard to tell everything, so all I can recommend it to search through the sticky posts in the development section(and generally everywhere). After that you'll have a rough idea what to put on the phone and how.
Hi and welcome ,
If you don't want to brick your phone, first of all and mother of all custom flasher is to read all sticky topics here (twice or more if possible, in particularly the 3 Combo one): http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=657 .
Remember it's better to ask before a flash than being sorry.
Enjoy your flashing.
Thanks for the replys,
Yes I want to flash it the first day because i had a htc hd2 before this one and I had android on it (flashed) and I liked it very much.
I have an 3 button boot and I come in an boot menu whichs looks like cwm but with less options, ill check out odin. Any rom or kernels you guess suggest?

What to do? Do I need a kind of driver?
If someone wants to help me flashing my sgs through msn send a private message please
Odin don't detect the phone, simple, and yes it's a driver issue.
No offense, but sorry i'll not help you further more until you read the basic (your issue is a part of the basic btw). Careful you'll end with a brick phone!!! (don't want to be responsible of that)
At least give me a link to the ''basic''

Oh really??? come on!! take your time and read carefuly, with rush you'll end with a bad bad surprise. But well it's up to you.
In the same page you spot and read right now i can quote this:
Prerequisites: The android SDK, which you can download from here: http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html and the USB drivers for your phone, which you can get by either installing Kies or by downloading and installing these drivers: http://www.mediafire.com/?a6ni32dk6nn953b (password is 'ragin' -- I didn't test them, so feedback on these is welcome).

The topic of this thread is great but ur questions are just too ....we are glad to help but then google gives a much better explanation for almost everything.
Thing is when some kind person answers such questions ppl come up with more of such questions cuz they get answers without pain.
Yes rooting voids warranty, there are no risks of bricking if u follow the steps properly. But no guarantee
Btw how old are u? Pm me if u don't want it out in the open.

Hi brother original_ganjaman
I wanted to ask you: "If i can assist you in moderating our SGT 7.7 then dont hesitate to tell me that"
Its not that that you dont do your work properly - its cause some guys really dont understand in wich section they have to make their threads. Or they ask before they search in forum.....
Sometimes its really annoying ... you know that better than me

[Q] Complete noob help is needed

So im new here and to rooting and using custom ROMS and i completely dont know what to do lol i saw a ROM with the 4.1.2 Android which i want to install on my XPERIA E15i because most apps now require 2.2 OS and up while i have 2.1 update 1 or something lol...
Is my phone compatible with the rom from [ROM] MiniCM10-4.1.0 [15/3/13]JB 4.1.2/CM10 for the Χ8 thread?
model number: e15i
firmware version: 2.1-update1
badeband version: m76xx-tsncjolym-53404015
kernel version: 2.6.29 [email protected] #1
build number: 2.1.1.A.0.6
I havent rooted or did anything to my phone its like it was when i bought it xD
I saw that i need to root my phone to install the rom which i can do by following a tutorial on the internet...
My baseband and build number are ok with the rom but it says i need a kernel with a higher version than what i have here is where i get lost lol im a noob with this things
Then it says i need to unlock my bootloader... again dont know how to do it lol
So if i understand correct i need to:

no need to search tbh. this is a sticky from general. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=35344526
@op if you're not going to search, at least read the stickies.
Just because i don't doesn't mean i can't.

Nope.
Root the phone first, get some kind of a root browser, install xRecovery or CWM recovery, then use either to install a ROM of your choice. After you install it you can start experimenting with other things (or you can do it before, but why stay at 2.1?).
As the others already implied it, there are a thousand topics already covering this subject. Just search around, put some time into it. It's not going to be easy the first time, but after you're done you'll see it could have been done in ten minutes. And you cannot screw up the phone in the process if that's what worries you (however you can kill it by unlocking bootloader).
EDIT: Many ROMs can run on stock kernels, but I think 4.0+ ROMs all require custom kernels? Someone can reprimand me on this if I'm wrong. If that's the case, 2.2 or 2.3 is what you get.
Thanks i guess i can use the 2.2 or 2.3 rom with stock k. then
To the rest who told me to use search are a bunch of ass***** who only replied here to increase their post count if you dont have anything to say then simply dont post here
Lol i need to enter captcha every time i post this forum is a joke place filled with annoying people

you must have not read the rules then. i guarantee you will encounter the same ass***** regardless whichever subforum you visit in xda if you continue your ask-first-search-maybe-never attitude. and fyi, we have more than enough posts to our names, thank you. if this forum is filled with annoying people, well, no one's asking you to stay. lol.
Just because i don't doesn't mean i can't.
I bet 1000 of your posts were all about using search
Before make a new thread better to google first, if u not find ur solution then, ask here..
