by the way. I just flashed the Honeycomb 3.0 but did not like it and attempt it to revert back to an original rom and that's when I ran in to trouble. I have full root but lost my clockworkmod recovery. how can I get it back and if you know any roms for Sprint Galaxy Tab?. thanks.
there is a link in thread i gave you above , check it
Would suggest to re-stock back to original firmware as this will fix up the internal storage...
I have this same issue after a failed firmware update, i was trying to update to 2.3 I have spent about 8 hours trying to fix this using the instructions and links etc on the link you supplied however im not 100% sure which of the several issues mentioned on the link is the one I actually have. Im not able to press the down and power key to get it into download mode. The screen in the picture only comes on when its plugged into the mains charger, i have once or twice got it to come on when plugged into the pc but not had any luck getting the firmware to update as i think the rom i had might have been corrupt or something. Do you know how to get the GT to let me update the firmware when its like this??
ok update, i left the GT plugged into the laptop until it came up with the screen in the picture, once this was displayed Odin picked up that the GT was plugged in i then used Odin to update the PIT and it started working again after that Hope this helps someone cause I spent all day looking for someone to say it was a simple to fix as this

Hello all,
Bought a galaxy tab. And flashed it. With bad firmware.
I can set TAB in download mode.
So with ODIN I should be able to flash.
Can someone PLEASE!!!!?????? link me or tell me where to find A FULL EURO rom or P1000 compatible rom. That can be flashed with ODIN
Try latest Roto ROM here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=939360, its okay for Euro Tab...
make a accout here, and you can choise the official firmware.
Samfirmware
Did that flashed and TAB boots and hangs at the SAMSUNG logo.
edit : DId a full whipe did not resolve hanging at the SAMSUNG logo
Used Jk5 with that. Downing Jk2 now.

Why would u recommend this? Don't u know that they have locked bootloaders? People who don't understand stuff shouldn't be trying to help. Now he's gonna need to use the bootloader fix which has risks.

Only if he flashes one of the JMx series.
Flash the Rotohammer JMI firmware, it's a _complete_ firmware with the locked bootloader removed. If it doesn't work then you've either done something wrong (start again, read instructions carefully), or you've got a locked bootloader.
If you've already tried flashing a JMx firmware and are now having issues then you'll need to go back to whatever original firmware you had and then run the bootloader fix, which as long as you pay attention to the instructions is unlikely to be an issue, get it wrong however and you've got problems.
Also - this is not a development related question, should be in the general subforum.
TAB Dead
Tab is 3 days old and dead.
No recovery mode,
No Download mode,
only a blinking logo (screen of and on) that looks similar to the downloading logo when in flash mode when wall charger is attached.
No live indication or responsive s.
Indicates this a RMA to samsung service center.
Never had A flash or root problem of this kind before.
just the on of screen. If in wrong Category I hope some Admin might want to move it to the correct position.

Ok so you can give me a direct link to flashing boot of tab please ?
If it won't even get into download mode then there's nothing you can do to fix it, you'll have to take it back to the shop. Any fixes require being able to boot into download or recovery mode.

Perhaps you mean the logo is phone at the left, middle is ! pc at the right, it's also a download mode, which you can flash thru odin, just flash with roto's rom, and do a repartition.
Basically if odin still able to detect your tab, it's not totally dead yet, if your tab's display is like what I mentioned above, just get roto's rom, AND MAKE SURE CHECKSUM IS CORRECT! Before flashing.

it started when i wanted to upgrade my galaxy tab to 2.3.3 gingerbread but something went wrong on oden and my galaxy stucked at screen of death (that screen that has a mobile icon pc and an exclamation mark) anyway i got out of it using hiemdall but now iam stucked at adroid system recovery 3e how to go back to the OS and also i can go to download screen ......
thnx (sorry for disturbance)
guys 85 views and no answer plz i need help
Well I can tell you how to completely brick your tab but I, probably as well as most of the people who viewed your post, don't know how to fix...
Doesn't take much to view a post, less to give bad advice... Requires patience to get the person who can help, to find your post and answer...
You also have a cdma tab, i believe, that's bad as most people have the gsm variant. It also means that steps I take to rectify your problem on my tab will probably brick yours...
Now, would you like me to tell you how to fix MY tab???
Also, no idea what you were on, what you were trying to flash, rooted or unrooted, locked bootloader check done and cdma, wifi-only or gsm??? We need this information before we can help.
thnx for your reply ultra. my phone is gsm (the one that i can insert sim card) and its rooted and i was updating to ginerbread when oden stucked at factoryfs and failed and it bricked i used hiemdall to skip the pc screen and go to download screen so what can i do know ????????
thnx in advance
1st thing I'd do is get my stock froyo rom... The one that came on the gtab. reflash that and then try again from there if successful...
You night find your stock rom here on xda or you might need to go further afield like samfirmware. I'd also, if back on stock rom, test to make sure my bootloaders weren't locked otherwise you may end up here again....
bootloadercheck/patch can be found in this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=888071

Did you check to see if you had a locked bootloader before attempting to flash?
Which rom/guide did you use/follow?
Have you tried the Overcome rom/guide?

I had a more complicated version of this. couldn't format, couldn't mount, nothing. My tab showed this, I tried flashing several different kernels/roms/cwm, everything, nothing. Actually made it worse. It got to a point where when I powered on, I only got the backlit softkeys. A few times I got a weird image I've never seen before. Something about bad or unknown upload mode (with a little droid in teh corner....should have taken a picture). And finally I would get nothing; HOWEVER, if I plugged my tab into my laptop and gave it a few seconds, ODIN would see it. I could try flashing a kernel, but it would never process, just hang at the first step so....
with the tab plugged into the laptop and ODIN showing a connection, I would hold VOL DOWN + POWER until I see it disconnect (this is evident of a power down since I have no lights to indicate that). Once it disconnects (yellow box disappears) you can let go of POWER but do NOT release VOL DOWN. It will reconnect shortly thereafter. You are now in Download mode (whether or not you actually see anything on the tablet. You can test this theory by flashing something. What fixed it for me? I downloaded firmware from samfirmware.com. Specifically I downloaded JJ7 v2.2 (full file name I used was P1000XWJJ7.rar) I think what made the difference was using all 3 files. I did not use a PIT file, I put P1000XWJJ7-REV03-ALL-CL669843.tar.md5 in the PDA box, MODEM_P1000XXJK5_REV_00_CL690077.tar.md5 for Phone, and GT-P1000-CSC-MULTI-OXXJK2.tar.md5 in CSC. I did NOT check repartition. Now, this was after I had tried several things like flashing PIT by itself, different stock kernels, full ROMs, etc.... This was the final step I took. Now I'm back to normal.
I'd be interested to see if this solves anyone else's problem. I am so thrilled that I just fixed my "bricked" tab (no power, no response, no apparent charging even) that I'm hoping my time and effort can help someone else.
Let us know what happens. I am actually scouring the forums now because I know at least 2 others were having similar problems as I and maybe this will help them as well.
BTW, I did lose EVERYTHING on the internal SD, including all my backups. Thankfully I always made backups to External
P.S. I should mention it is an AT&T (GSM) Tab.

Thanks for the suggestion. I think your version of galaxy tab is different with mine and I am not sure that it will work. I am really desparate for solution. This disaster started when the tab's battery is low and suddenly off and when it's charged and turned on it bricked
Point being, tabs are tabs. You will need to use the same procedure, but a different ROM that is designed for your tablet. Go there and find a ROM. There is a thread about unbricking your tablet, I think in the Android Development section that should have a link to samfirmware.com and may provide you with a ROM version that should work. something that may help: plug your tab into the charger at least overnight. I used the stock charger and cable and charged it for 12 hours or so. I did not get any indication that it was charging since the screen and softkeys would not respond, but it did charge.
Of course, I look back and I think you have an indicator, but still a good idea. Try it anyway. Can't make it worse, eh? Mine seemed hardbricked, but it wasn't. I was real close to taking it apart before I found something that works. I believe, IMO, what really fixed it is flashing ROM (PDA), Modem, and CSC files all at once. It could have been something else, but that was the last thing I did before it finally booted.
Go to samfirmware.com, create a free account, and sign in. Then go here (I think your tab is a P1010, correct?) http://www.samfirmware.com/WEBPROTECT-p1010.htm
and Download this:
1010XWKC1 ## MULTI - CSC - OXXKC1 P1WIFI 2.2.1 2011 March DOWNLOAD
(click on DOWNLOAD)
Unzip that file you just downloaded
Start ODIN
Hold VOL DOWN and plug in tab to computer
I believe 3 files should be in the .rar (you can use 7-zip to open, Google it)
the MODEM file goes in Phone.
the CSC file goes in, you guessed it, CSC
last one is PDA.
I think I just rewrote instructions that can be found in the Galaxy Tab Bible. lol. This is what I would do. It worked for me.
Password for P1000XWJJ7.rar
Gentlemen,
I've downloaded both P1000XWJJ7.rar and P1010XWKC1_OXXKC1 to fix my bricked tab, but both require a password to extract the archives. Does anyone know the password? Has anyone had the same issue? I doubt it, otherwise i think it would have been addressed. Any help is appreciated.

try sampro.pl
see if that works.
I too require the passwords to be able to extract these files if someone would be so kind.
Copied straight from SamFirmware.com. It is right at the top of the download page.
try both of these... seems it could be either one of them

do a quick search of the dev thread for EA24 and you should be able to find the original SPH-P100 files. then you can find the EB28 and EF17 updates as well to get all the way to the official GB release.

ok, no one likes a bricked device so let's see what we can do to help you. tell us where you are with your problem. by that i mean what model do you have, what rom were you running, what did you do or try to do that bricked your phone. i'll keep an eye on this thread looking for your response and we'll go from there.
I have the sprint p100 model room was stock rooted gingerbread.
I mailed the Tab to my brother when he got it tab battery was

thank you very much for helping me!!

I have the T-Mobile version of this, but here's a guide and download files to recover your stock ROM. You can follow the entire guide if you want the Overcome ROM as well:
Guide:

Downloads:

Good luck!
NOTE:
Sprint modem is not listed, but you can fix that later. If you can get it to work with this guide & using the last modem file, we can go from there.

Hi, all.
I used Heimdall to flash the kernel as part of rooting my new phone. The messages in the terminal window looked good and I got the blue progress bar. The phone rebooted and I got a yellow warning triangle and everything freezes. I downloaded a kernel image from Samfirmware and now the phone boots without the yellow warning, but no other change. It still gets stuck. Can anyone help or is my phone bricked?
I can boot into download mode and am using a Linux PC.
At the moment, my options seem to be:
1) Use Heimdall to flash something? I have a 400meg download from Samfirmware, but don't know how to flash the files besides zImage, using Heimdall.
2) Get a USB dongle from eBay to reset the page that says I've altered the handset. This means I should be able to take it back to T-Mobile.
3) Go to a Samsung service centre and potentially pay lots of money to have the phone repaired. Anyone know how much this is (in the UK)?
Thanks,
Chris.
Actually you don't need to do that , as long as you can access download mod then your phone is fine , what you need to do is this :
- Download a stock rom including all stuff (PIT . PDA . PHONE . CSC . BOOTLOADER ) and also Odin 3 v. 1.82 Don't use another flashing software (as far as i know the one you used is still new and it may still have a lot of bugs so its better to use odin) .
You can download all the files i told you to on this page : http://www.androidgen.fr/tutoriel-s...id-gingerbread-2-3-6-odin-article-2110-2.html
Its in french but i don't think you will find problems finding the download links ^^
- After you get all the files place them according to the page each one at its right place in odin and make sure that "Re-Partition is checked .. and hit start
if all goes right your phone will reboot and work again
Good luck
Edit : This files are for S1 , your're asking for help about an S2 i suggest you post it in the correct section or download similar files for the S2 and follow the same steps
Thank you, zizou.
I'm sorry I posted in the wrong area, I'll try again.
Sorry I wasted your time.

Hi,
I installed a Cyanogenmod ICS 4.0.3. build 17 firmware on my Samsung Galaxy S I9000 almost 5 months ago from a tutorial. The update itself has been a fantastic experience from the start and I'm not sure if my current problem is even related to that firmware update. Apparently new users like me can't post URLs so I can't provide it now. If you need it let me know.
I have to admit that lately the phone has been rebooting every couple of days, or Android's been freezing and I had to remove the battery, but I didn't think too much of it. It wasn't too bad of a problem really, but this morning all of a sudden the device has become totally unusable. Help! :-/
The issue that's started since today is that my phone won't boot anymore. It seems to reboot somewhere during the boot process. There's only two screens that will be shown, before it reboots. When I remove the battery, put it back in and attach the charger, I will only see two charging screens. While charging, the device will also*reboot after a while.*
I can get into download-mode (volume-down + ok-button + power-key) but can't get into recovery mode (volume-up + ok-button + power-key).
Any ideas would be appreciated, thanks!
Greetings,
Adriaan
ps -> I have pictures of the booting screens and the charging screens but wasn't allowed to post them here. Again, if you need to see them please PM.
Hi,
I think you have to reflash using odin. You can be happy to reach download mode
I'll try that, thanks.

Just to be sure, could you please check that my logic is correct?
First off: the tutorial I had followed had me follow a few procedures:
first I updated Galaxy S with XXJVU Firmware
then rooted Galaxy S on XXJVU Firmware
after that I flashed CM 9, ICS 4.0.3. build 17 to the device
To which of these steps were you referring? My guess would be to take the last one, but perhaps it's wiser to restart the tutorial from the beginning. I'd appreciate any additional support you can give me, you can understand that I don't want to brick my device due to my misunderstandings..
Seems like a high overclock or high underclock

Not sure what you mean there. In any event I've never taken any steps to overclock or underclock my device. Maybe it's going senile and I get to buy a galaxy s III soon
*phew* well my problem's been solved. Since I was able to get into download mode I flashed a baseline rom with Odin and found my way back to ICS. One surprise along the way was that from the same tutorial I had followed (and had happy results from) a few months ago, the step of using Odin to root the device wasn't working, it kept getting stuck at 'zImage' during the process! What's more, after that I was getting the BSOD image (the phone, exclamation mark and computer), which I found could be helped by using a 'One-Click Unbrick for Samsung devices'.
That was a XXJVU firmware. After some snooping around I found a different firmware than the one I had previously used and had switched from a XXJVU firmware to a XXJW4 firmware through a page on XDA-Developers. Did that. It worked. And now I'm back to ICS again, yay!
Thanks for the help along the way!
