That's known as a bootloop. ODIN is your friend in this case. Go here and read about ODIN and its How-to use it. Your SDcard contents are safe, as is your tablet. You only need to find a suitable ODIN image for your tablet right here, be sure to look for the 7310 section, not the 7300.

I've bricked my GT-S5869i but I don't have rom to flash with odin can you upload a rom for this device please it's urgent, Monday I have a school trip at 5 am.

try to ask in sammobile forum as thats where all sammy rom is posted, maybe u'll have better luck there.
the GT-S5839i is a rare i assume, googling for it doesnt bring any info at all :/

If you mean s5830i
Go here:SamFirmware and select your region, then choose the latest rom.
Choose your rom and flash with ODIN.

What is this gt-s5839i I have never heard of it?!

I assume you mean the GT-S5830i
Have a look here: Download Mode is Vol + Vol - with Power on your Device I believe, flash this through Odin 4.42: http://www.hotfile.com/dl/156022526/079fb77/S5830IXXLB2_S5830IITVLB2_ITV.zip.html

samsung galaxy ace gt-s5839i...that phone is fresh from UK

My galaxy note probably bricked help please

Hi all,
My note run ICS has been rooted and the last rom on it is king droid 2.1
Just yesterday I've tried to wipe it all from the recovery. After that it was stuck on the main screen when you switch on the phone I was still able to go in recovery so I try to re-flash the same rom and after the previous one without success then I've tried to flash back the original rom lpy with Odin started to recognise the device but when it started to flash it it takes ages and the progressive bar it stay just like on 1% .
Now the phone doesn't go in recovery mode but just in download mode and on the screen comes "firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again"
Off course Kies does not recognise the phone.
Please help me I'm desperate
Thanks to all

you had wiped in recovery, your phone is bricked ......sorry, i hope you have yet warrenty

The phone is on warranty but I haven't got the receipt unfortunately

Kingdroid 2.1 uses a cf-root that is affected by superbrick bug (and this is why this version was removed from the OP by his author), so probably your note is damaged.
in general section there are many threads (like this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1661590) with guides that you can try to use to "repair" your bricked note... otherwise you can send it to samsung assistance and hope in a free motherboard replacement.

But if I send the note to Samsung they can see the phone it has been rooted
Do u think they will still do something for it?

Sure they can, but if they find your note is rooted (or generically modded) you have to pay the cost of the mainboard replacement.
However, first of all, I suggest you to read the thread I've posted (and even others) and verify if you can revive your note by yourself.
Good luck mate, I'm really sorry for your note :-(

Sent from my GT-N7000 using Tapatalk 2

First thing you should do is check other threads about that around here.
If you can get it into download mode, you could give flashing with Odin a try. If it doesn't get stuck at factory.fs, then you're not superbricked.
If it does get stuck, then you have 2 more hopes:
- HOPE 1
- HOPE 2
If those don't work either...I'm afraid it's off to the Samsung Service center for a shiny new motherboard.
Best of luck to you and hope you get your Note up and running as soon as possible...

I know but mistake happens......and unfortunately I did a big mistake......I'm getting mad to try to solve this problem

Thanks I'll look the threads soon I finish to work Odin by he way it get stuck on factory.fs. So no chance but I was reading about The pit file do you know something about?
By the way thanks for the help guys

I AM FROM INDIA ,I AM A REGULAR VISITOR OF THIS FORUM. I TRIED SEVERAL ROMS NEARLY I MIGHT HAVE DONE 25 ROM INSTALLATION IN MY PHONE USING ODIN. FOR THE LAST 20 DAYS I AM ON THE SAME ROM DDLP8 ICS 4.03 (ROOTED)
DURING A FILE TRANSFER FROM MY PC PHONE SWITCHED OF AND DIDNT GO ON.
i searched xda and finally custom pit method worked for me with a pit file .. but i now have only 9 GB space in my internal SD . i tried all other pits only two pit file allows me to install a rom.
any way to regain my memory back.
if repair is the only option how much indian rupee it will cost.
please brothers help me . i am a student and because of addiction to custom roms i have installed roms several times.

Well, if patched pit was the only solution that worked for you, I think that's no way you can get your 7gb-left back, cause part of your emmc storage is probably -certainly- corrupted, and for now is impossible to repair without a motherboard replacement...unfortunately you need Samsung assistance for that.
I'm sorry mate but I don't live in India, so I have no idea of how much it will cost.

I already tried some of this roms but the problem is the SMS capability, the network signal will be disconnected after you press the send SMS.
This rom will enable your tab to 10 point capacitive touch screen.
This is ICS AOPK 4.0.4
http://main.develoid.com:81/samsung...ich ROM/IceCreamSandwich_M180S_Stable_2.0.tar
And this is JellyBean 4.1.2
http://main.develoid.com:81/samsung/Galaxy/Galaxy Tab/SHW-M180S/새 폴더/Jiwon ROM 2.0S Full.tar
So I decide to flash back to Gingerbread co'z I need the SMS capability.

Oh, realy apreciate your links here. I have to decide wich one to flash. As I don't use any SIM card ont the TAB I don't need the SMS capability, so for me it's ok.
Can you recomend me wich one to flash?
Thanks a lot bro!:good:

You need to flash 4.0.4 first so that you can start all wipe in recovery mode, after you wipe, let the tab finish the setup for ics, after you can check the ics, then you can proceed flashing the Jellybean firmware.

So, correct me if I'm wrong:
- First flash 4.0.4
- When flashing finish, go in to recovery and wipe data/cache
- Then, start normaly and let it setup ICS
- And if evrything goes well, now I can flash JB
Is that correct? Any extra apreciation?
Thanks

Helo hello,
Well, finaly I did the flash uprade to ICS AOPK 4.0.4. And, as luther777 mentioned, it get stuk for hours in the AOKP logo.
I started to panic but with a spark of faith in that it will work fine. So after 4 hours waiting and trying to enter the recovery mode, finaly I managed to open the CWM recovery menu. Did a wipe cache/data two or three times and also formated every thing. And after that, rebooted and leave it all night booting.
The next morning the TAB was asking for the initial setup!! Finaly!!!
So now I'm very happy and looking forward to upgrade it this week to JellyBean 4.1.2.
Thanks every body for helping me and others on the uprade of this Korean TAB version.

Ok, JellyBean 4.1.2. up and running.
For the moment it works great. I'm very happy with it.

Finally!
Thanks everyone here for the advice! I've got JB running, finally! Looking forward to flash with 4.2 soon ^.*

Few beginner questions.

Hello guys I just sold my 4S and bought this Note 1 , anyway im new to android flashing and this stuff , ive heard that its way different than iOS restoring which is really easy and simple. Right now i got a few questions , If i missed a step or did something wrong it'll render my device unusable ofcourse , but will it be unrecoverable ? Thats the first thing. Second thing is that is it recommended that i install custom roms? right now i need one's with the Water Ripple effects on lockscreens , or if you can just tell me how to install the effect without custom rom's that'll be helpful because i want to flash official 4.1.2 jelly bean first and then the lockscreen effect. Im just new to the Android stuff and i dont know where to start Same feeling back in 2008 when i bought my first iPhone and got confused n' all

Read around for awhile, its what got me started when I first came here.
Again, read, read read, and avoid asking questions which have been answered countless times its annoying really.
Start with this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997, understand it by heart before attempting to root/flash on your new Note :good:

I dont really get anything , extract till tar what does that mean?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app

If you just install stock official 4.1.2 rom via odin, it should come with the ripple effect.
Or if the update is already available in your country, you can just update it to the latest official rom via kies.

You'll notice that all of the download links are zip files.
You just need to extract the zip file until you find the .tar file.
Get 7-zip if you don't already have an archive reader.

Help with kernel
So recently I rooted my Samsung Galaxy Note GTN7000 and flash it with franco kernel, then when I turned on my phone the bluetooth is not working and it constantly crashes and get stuck (The screen just go green and pink like an old TV with bad signal).

Yep, there's a way to install roms without PC, using mobile Odin, but before that you should have your phone been rooted first.

Well i can upgrade with PC but im kinda afraid .. All i want is just updating to jelly bean official on my note , I searched for about 2 days and learned how its being done but while searching i came to posts showing people crying cause they got their phone bricked cause of kernel blah blah , i also saw at the end of the installation guides that it will get my phone in a boot loop or stuck at samsung logo and im not sure xD i just want to update and im taking it seriously cause i dont want to brick my phone .. If someone can walk me through step by step id be thankful , we can use skype or something xD

Wait a few minutes. Let me get on my PC and I'll give you step-by-step instructions.
Now, do this:
Since you're scared, we'll do this the safest way possible
1.)Download a stock GB rom from here.(You can always come back to this ROM if you run into any trouble).Flash it via PC Odin.
2.)Wipe data and cache from recovery (Press Vol Up+Power+Home when phone is off in order to boot to recovery)
3.)Download stock JB rom from here.Flash it via PC Odin.
OR
1.)Update using Kies.
You're done

Alright ill do this when i get home , hehe thanks man ill update this thread if i get into any trouble

Im following this method right now , so i just download Gingerbread (550+mb i think?) and install via odin and then i have gingerbread? No additional steps ? No chance of loops/errors/bricks or anything or installing additional kernels like some people said cause that's whats confusing me ... i dont really want any custom kernal i want jelly bean stock ... if anybody could guide me through skype i'd be thankful
EDIT: Iv'e read this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1633938 thread carefully and it says that if you wipe using Settings you will get eMMC bug , i was on 4.0.4 and wiped but it booted normally without any problems (No loops No Restarting on its own No lags) and it was smooth , even though that app from playstore says my chip is insane .. Somebody explain this :S ?

Yes, then you'll have gingerbread. Don't forget to wipe after installing gingerbread.
It may brick. Not definite that it will brick. Still, better safe than sorry. Never wipe on stock ICS kernel!

Again, read, read read, and avoid asking questions which have been answered countless times its annoying really.
Start with this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997, understand it by heart before attempting to root/flash on your new Note :good:

Well said mate. Was going to say exactly the same. People seem to rethink it's a manned help site.
We will help but help your self first. That's how you learn.

I actually read and made my research already , and also successfully upgraded to jelly bean and i must say , i made a big mistake >.< The performance is crap and the phone gets overheated in a few minutes on both note 1 and 2 ( Its on 4.1.1) Im not really into kernels or custom rom flashing cause i already had a bad experience when i emmc bricked my old s2 thats why i take my steps carefully with this note. Ill downgrade to 2.3.6 and ordered an original battery (Yeah im using fake one stupid i know) and see of that fixes it. Appreciate your help guys , thanks
