If you're able to provide information as to exactly what you did to get your device in this state that would be immensely helpful in regards to diagnosing the problem. However you'll probably be able to recover your device using a custom jig.

I can not be more explicit. I wanted to try a rom. Wasn't satisfied so i downloaded another one (with cache file, database file, bootloader, etc... ) but the file have been dowloaded too quickly (i think the zip file was corrupted...)
So i did the flash, and my tab don't wake up. I don't have a brick state (with the usb and pc logo). I don't have the samsung/galaxy tab logo. Ihave nothing on my screen. Like my on/off button was broken...
And whatever i do(like the combo on/off with the volume down), my computer don't recognize the tab. So i can't flash it again.

Well you're going to have to be if you want anyone's help.
What files did you flash? Which software did you use? Which version? Were you given errors? How did you flash the files?
Please provide a detailed step by step run-down of exactly what you did.

I can't remember, and i'm french, i can't find the right word to explain the situation...
I flashed my tab with HEIMDALL (the last version on the website) i think the problem is when i wanted to flash with the file EURO.pit (i choose this file in the "bootloader" category of the software HEIMDALL).
The problem... My computer can't recognyze the tab because i can't turn on the tab, so... I don't know what can i do.
EDIT: And HEIMDALL don't tell me any error. Just "Flash Complete, Rebooting"
EDIT 2: I think i used the wrong bootloader...

Up?
What can i do? Is a batterie problem?

Let your Tab charging for 5 Hours and then try again.

Sounds like you've flashed a bootloader not designed for your tablet. Luckily all Galaxy S devices store a backup copy of the secondary bootloader which is utilised when a certain resistance is detected on the USB port. You can send it off to Samsung and they'll repair it, but they might charge you. The other option is to build your own custom jig which will activate the backup secondary bootloader.

now ive got the same problem. i tried a custom recovery i found in the "bible" sticky...clock work wasnt working when i was doing adb commands. the recovery i tried is called 3e. all it would do is reboot, t-mo logo and then bootloader words would flash very quick and black screen (backlit) press the back button and i got the triangle droid.
then i got it to go into download mode and tried a rom with odin this is the rom if it helps
GT-P1000_P1000XXJME_P1000OXAJME_P1000XXJMB_P1000XXJME_XX_ITV.zip.enc
unzipped, selected in pda and clicked start. failed at the last second and the downloading android screen on tab was stuck so i powered it down.
stupid stupid stupid!
now it wont turn on period, i get nothing from usb connection or secret button presses.
ill try the "rig" tomorrow, but how will i hack up this galaxy usb to work? the guide says micro usb but obviously thats for a phone.
please help if you can, i just got this thing today

@Benjamin: I can do a custom jig for a galaxy tab?
EDIT: But i don't think the jig will help me..
"If your phone screen is always black, that is it does not display the white Galaxy S/Samsung/AT&T logo when you switch it on, then sorry, this jig will not help you. "

HELP please? Can i do a custom jig for the galaxy tab? And How?

press and hold the power button for 10 second make sure it totally off
then try to enter download mode
if u are able to enter download mode
flash roto jme v4
if it a battery problem
i think it may be battery flat, try plug it in to the charger see if it work after 10 min

help bricked phone

Hi everyone. Im not normally in this section as i have an x8 but my friend has seen all the roms,mods and updates ive done so he tried to do it to his galaxy s i9000 without rooting or unlocking his bootloader. I asked him what he did he said he just tried to update software with keis but now it wont turn on just white screen with a red triangle in the middle i hope its download mode as i dont have a galaxy i dont really no but the battery has died and it wont charge im guessing hes damaged the bootloader am i right and if so whats the best corse of action to tepair it. Thanks.

You can check if it is in download mode by pluggin it in pc with odin. See the wiki page what it says about soft brick.
Soft-Bricked
After flashing a rom you might not be able to enter the Download Mode by pressing Volume Down + Home + Power. In this case a so called 'JIG' would be helpfull.
You could build it on your own: [HOWTO] [REF] Get Download Mode without 3-button combo using homemade JIG
... or buy a preassembled one on a well known marketplace.Hint: There is no difference between a JIG for Samsung S/S2 or S-Plus.

See if you can go into d0wnload mode with vol down home and power. If that works go and try to find the stock firmware for the phone and download and extract. Download odin and put csc pda and phone/modem in there rightful places. 512 pit in pit section. Pit usually comes with odin download. If not find it somewhere. Repartition checked and hit start. It should reboot when done. It will problaby take a couple of min to boot but be patient. If it starts to go into boot loop put back into download mode again and reflash. Its very hard to mess up the phone to where you cant fix it. So relax and watch tuts or whatever helps you best. I know of a link i that i will find and post for you when i do.

DEAD bricked phone
So, my friend's phone (hopefully she'll stay my friend after this) was turning itself on and off all on it's own. So I (no good deed goes unpunished) suggested that I will upgrade her firmware for her. She had 2.3.3 firmware. I downloaded the odin1.7 as well as a package of all the info for 2.3.5 firmware upgrade. I flashed the phone- originally only using the PDA option with a file called: CODE_I9000XXJVS_CL565837_REV03_user_low_ship
It worked, the phone restarted and showed the firmware as being 2.3.5.
I don't know why, but I thought it would be a good idea to update the CSC and the pit and the modem as well- so I did that. when this was finished - though odin said that the flashing was successful the phone is completely unresponsive. The computer doesn't recognize it, it doesn't show any signs of life at all- like it's in the dark ages and there is no electricity in it.
HELP!!!
First question: do you think a jig will work? how dangerous is it?
second question: is there any other option to try that I haven't come across other than changing the motherboard, and if there isn't do you know where I can get one, bear in mind I live in Israel.
Please e-mail me a copy of the response to [email protected] if you can...

Odin dosnt pick it up atall plus the batteries dead aswell now and the stupid thing wont charge so i cant evan try any thing till i find away or some one to charge it but thanks for the tips.

Try to recharge the battery from other phone or use another battery.
Check whether you have the download mode working. (Home+Power+Volume down)
If yes, put phone in download mode and flash Darky RE or any other Rom via ODIN. Try to get the recovery mod after rooting and then try ROMs.
Or try restarting the phone it may work without update also. Long press power in download mode restarts the phone. However be careful.

What is the status of the device can you go to download mode
Post your firmware files name and how you choose in the odin flasher.
Dont try anything crazy you will bricked your device more:banghead:

Alternate way to Download mode
Hi gavster26
I have been there with a buddy's phone... not a nice place.
Found a link showing this other trick ... but you have to trial and error this one on the different combos:
1. Phone off
2. USB cable pluged in
3. Odin running
4. Down (or Up - test both) Volume button + Home button + plug in the USB cable.
This booted my dead "bricked" phone into download mode.
Try it.

You have to try again to get it into download mode.
Use Odin for your device model and run it as administrator. If Kies is installed, kill all Kies processes by using Task Manager. Prepare the files under PDA etc. Pull out the battery and hold power button pressed for 1min. Then keep all buttons combo for download mode and insert the battery while pressed (needs some acrobacy skills). If the download mode starts, you can connect your phone and flash firmware again.

[Q] Newbie Need help! about how to flash a rom on Galaxy Tab GT P1000

Hi guys
I'm pretty much a newbie when it comes to flashing a rom such as ICS or any latest rom that is available for my Galaxy Tab so i really need help with this to avoid problems. First how do i know whether my galaxy tab is GSM or CMDA ? i checked my WIFI settings and it says GSM/WCMDA what does these means ? I can use 3G if you needed to know.
And what tools and applications do i need ? to flash a rom such as ICS or any latest stable rom. i just factory reset my Galaxy Tab GT P1000 already as it's causing problems for me such as freezing everyday and restart by itself.
Currently my Galaxy Tab is on 2.3.3 GingerBread Android. The stock version of it was Froyo i guess that is 2.2 right ? and yeah i updated my tab from Kies few months ago to gingerbread of course. And yes i already rooted my Galaxy Tab few months ago but i just factory reset it today i guess the root is gone now ?
What are the latest and stable ICS/JB version for my Galaxy Tab GT P1000 ? please do guide me to successfully installing them.
hope someone is able to help me with this as i am going to flash it today.
thank you very much

Edit is highlighted by blue font. Mistake highlighted by red font.
I was just about to write a guide for my niece, here goes: -
Please read other guides to be more understanding of flashing. Below is a quick step only. Just in case the good long guides are too long and too complex. Hopefully with a short guide + long guide, it's easier and cover both sides / requirements. Sorry that it was too short for dc2mx, hope he recovers well.
pre-requisite. --->>> magic action.
Hold power button 8 seconds and it will FULLY SHUTDOWN. Don't let it be ON whole night. Battery does not charge during DOWNLOAD mode and not charge in RECOVERY mode. That's why I write in step 16 about this magic 8 seconds fully shutdown.
Hold power button 4 seconds and it boots up.
Hold power button 12 seconds will shutdown then boots. Not adviced. Because it becomes boot-loop.
OK, may some filenames are wrong, but they carry the same meaning. Hence please forgive my short-coming or spelling mistake or naming error.
make sure battery is 100% charged up.
no need root, hence skip rooting step.
download this file >>>GB-Stock-Safe-v5<<< link is provided another time by http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1881981 - thanks thanks thanks to priyana priyana priyana.
make sure to install USB driver first, then plug in TAB to PC, wait few minutes to let it recognize, install and stable_lise <<<stabilize>>>. Takes time. No need to copy anything into it. This is just to ensure that the drivers were installed properly and that it successfully recognized the device so that FLASHING can be carried out.
reboot holding VOL_DOWN to go into DOWNLOAD MODE. You should see the word DOWNLOAD with a big triangle symbol.
direct use Odin software to flash the >>>GB-Stock-Safe-v5<<< OVERCOME RE-STOCK version 5 (the file is TAR format), download link above. See more details somewhere else. Sorry for being lazy uncle.
make sure to select a file named <<<<mr.pit>>>> for the pit section, MUST.
select the <<<<rom file.TAR>>>> format for PDA <<<I wrote WRONG previously into phone section|>>>, MUST. Very terribly sorry to dc2mx and anyone else affected.
select <<<<modem.bin>>>> for phone section else can't call, but not need now, later will have, can skip. Unless you wanna stick to 2.3.3
tick 3 items, A = re-partition, B = auto-reboot, C = F.reset.time. MUST.
click FLASH, wait 2.5 minutes, finished, auto reboot. You should see the USB connect YELLOW highlight successful before able to click FLASH.
then reboot again into Download mode and Odin again to flash the KERNEL only <<<002001-Overcome_Kernel_v4.0.0.tar>>> because it contains most importantly CWM (clock work mod), which is a TAB_self_rom_flashing. (newbie term).
Then download a CM9 or CM10 or whatever you want. as for me, as of writing I'm using alroger's 8th November version. Thanks to alroger, humeros, cdesai, and so many more.....http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1869477 Put into TAB's internal sdcard. Fastest flash. My external SD is cheap type, hence slow.
Flash it via reboot holding VOL_UP to go into RECOVERY mode. Select the file/rom that you chosen.
You'll see flash progress go to 10% then reboot.
Then reboot loop non stop. Hold power button for 8 seconds for it to shutdown fully.
Why? because flashing the first 10% puts in a new kernel with new MTD partition and everything behinds it can't recognize it, can't find it hence boot loop.
Enter RECOVERY again, reboot holding VOL_UP. If failed again. Don't worry, keep trying, I had to try 10 times. My first manual reboot went into CWM successfully but I didn't understand and realize, hence did not flash the file again. Then reboot normally, obviously it just boot-loops. Tried to go into CWM the 3rd time but not succesful, it just boot-loops. try so many times, with full shutdown and wait many minutes in between. I think around 10 times or more later went into CWM finally. God bless.
Reboot again into RECOVERY and flash one more time and WIN, DONE.
finished.

Hi thank you for providing with this guide but it doesn't answer any of my questions i am asking but anyway, i am confused with step 4 i have already downloaded GB Stock Safe V5 from the thread you linked. what do you mean by install and Stable_lise ? i have my USB Cable connected to my Galaxy Tab and it shows as Removable storage.

Hi there. The phone-exclamation-pc thing is another download mode.
At least you still have your bootloader.
Just make sure in the mean time you powered it off and charge it for over 4hrs. You don't want the power to run out.
In the download mode, is Odin detecting the tab? if so, you should still have very good chance to revive it.
Now, question:
- did you use Odin v1.7 included in the GB-stock-safe-v5 package or using other? Remember it is important to use the correct Odin version.
There should be little reason for the flash to fail on repartition if you follow the guide. If you haven't got it, see my signature, and go there to get the PDF guide and jump to page 7.
If you have already followed exactly, then there is a chance you have a damaged internal NAND chip. There are ways to go around that, but lets not go there first.

- did you use Odin v1.7 included in the GB-stock-safe-v5 package or using other? Remember it is important to use the correct Odin version.
There should be little reason for the flash to fail on repartition if you follow the guide. If you haven't got it, see my signature, and go there to get the PDF guide and jump to page 7.
If you have already followed exactly, then there is a chance you have a damaged internal NAND chip. There are ways to go around that, but lets not go there first.

Yes, i already connected my tab to power charger now. Of course i used Odin v1.7 that is included in GB-stock-safe-v5 package. but during Odin process i waited about 5mins then i went to see how is it going, then there's a FAIL in red above the first box. and my Tab is stuck a Do not turn off target mode.
I only did those instructions cx5 provided. So now i am stuck with Phone /!\ Computer icons screen. What am i going to do next ? And do you mean this guide ? https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B7k...EyNS00Yzg5LWE0MTktYmYyMjA1MThmYzQz/edit?pli=1 if yes, i haven't read it yet.
This is what i did yesterday i downloaded GB-Stock-Safe-v5, Overcome_Kernel_v4.0.0.tar, and CM10 P1000, md5sum: 157da0dc187216fa924da45182e1307e
What are the differences between P1000L and P1000N ? which CM10 files are right for my tab ?
Are these files that i am going to need ? please do refresh this thread every 5 mins or so. since i need help i will be here too. thank you
UPDATE: OK i just connected my Tab to power charger. but when i unplugged it. it turns off. i guess i need to leave it there for 4 hours to charge it ? i can't check whether Odin are able to detect my tab since i unplugged it and it turns off.
UPDATE2 Hmm my tab is blinking, it was on Phone /!\ Computer Icons screen. but now it's blinking, i meant it went to Phone /!\ Computer Icons screen then back to black screen every 10 seconds. is this normal ?

yes, try charge for more than 4hrs and hope the power goes in.
cx5 instruction seems correct, but it is best to look at page 7 of the guide for 100% accurate placement of the files.
the P1000L/N are Latin American tab that has different touch screen driver.

Hmm ok i think i know what went wrong during Odin process. cx5 said select the rom file.TAR for phone section, MUST. but i just read this guide https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B7k...EyNS00Yzg5LWE0MTktYmYyMjA1MThmYzQz/edit?pli=1 and it says click PDA and select GB_Stock_Safe_V5,tar and then click Phone.
i didn't click PDA as cx5 instructions didn't mention it. and that's why i am getting FAIL on Odin ?
Anyway, i guess i leave it to charge for 5 hours. then Test whether Odin is able to detect my TAB or not. see you in 5 hours later Priyana. hopefully you're online as i am not sure what to do next after Odin is able to detect my tab.

after charging, boot to download mode again, you may get that same screen like before.
In your PC prepare the Odin exactly like the page 7 of PDF.
Connect the tab to the PC and if you see the tab detected, just flash away, hopefully no error, and it should reboot itself if I am not mistaken, and you get stock GB rom.
Then just continue with the guide, to flash Overcome Kernel 4.0 tar.
After that you will have a CWM recovery, ready to flash CM10

OK so i am currently charging my Tab and it's blinking from Phone /!\ Computer screen to black screen every 10sec above. Does this screen disappear after fully charging it ? it seems that i am stuck at this screen now. but i can't turn it off and go to the previous hold Volume down and hold power button Do not turn off Target download mode.
Or Does Odin is able to detect my Tab on this Phone /!\ Computer screen too ? since you said it's another download mode please do correct me if i am wrong

yes Odin should detect it at this screen too.
If it doesn't, it will be very hard to fix.
I am surprised that you can't turn it off. Doesn't sounds so good, as it may deplete the batt completely.
Did you try to press the power button for a few seconds (5-10 seconds) to force it off completely?

Yeah my Tab was turn on for a whole yesterday. since i can't turn it off as it froze at Do Not Turn Off Target download mode. and today i saw the screen was off. then i went to turn it on but nothing i guess the battery is depleted. so i went to charge it and tried turning it on. it does boots up but now showing me this "Phone yellow /!\ Computer screen.
Okay, i just tested trying to shutting it down by holding Power button for 10seconds. but it seems that i can't turn it off. but the Tab itself is a little hot.
I have another question to ask, now i am stuck in this screen, and i have no idea it's charging or not. is this normal ? or usually it shows it's battery charging notification ?
UPDATE: It seems that my Tab is now turn off? it's not showing me the "Phone yellow /!\ Computer screen" now. it looks like it's turn off. nothing there just black

just leave it like this with the charger for maybe 8hr, since it has completely depleted before.
Battery charging animation I heard resides in the kernel.
So if the tab is flashed incorrectly, the battery animation will not be there.
It should still be charging (hopefully). The only way to be sure is to leave it charging for really long.

Ugh.. i know that it's just 5 hours+ But i was trying to turn on my tab to test whether Odin can detect my tab. but it seems that it won't power on. i guess it's dead ?
Damn i should have waited for your reply first priyana before doing anything. i just didn't do a important step which is "click PDA and select GB_Stock_Safe_V5,tar and then click Phone" instead of "select the rom file.TAR for phone section, MUST" which i thought click phone and select the tar. but it wasn't my fault as someone here posted the instructions that is misleading and missing the important step. Oh well....thanks for nothing,
Anyway, priyana, i really appreciate you are trying to help me. thank you very much buddy

Don't give up. Just continue charging. Many have experienced worst. I don't believe yours is bricked.

did someone really told you to wall charged when you had dowload screen? that's so uncharacteristic of XDA users.
nothing on your screen is not necessarily bricked.
find and download rom/firmware for t-mobile on ur pc.
start odin on ur pc.
press the power button on ur tab for at least 5secs.
connect ur tab to ur pc.
see if odin can detect your tab
if you can detect your tab, go ahead flash with the rom you just downloaded. No need to do repartition.
once done, reboot and see if it is fixed.

okay, so I tried to try that method, but my computer doesn't recognize galaxy at all. I can't even get into the download mode nor the recovery mode.

I take it that you managed to revive your tab?
