Hello,
I have flashed my Galaxy Tab with roto JMI, but it's stuck at the "GalaxyTab / Samsung" boot screen.
I can get into download mode with volume down and power, I can reflash it but in the end it does not boot.
What can i do?
loony
*bump* anybody?
Help please!!! I have the same problem!
I am still having this problem. I am wondering if there is any way how to debug whats happening at the Samsung logo screen. With adb the devices is not detected (it seems not to be detected at the usb controller).
What did you use to flash?
What files did you use?
Give all the info so people can help

So, this one contains a bootloader (Sbl.bin). maybe thats the cause of the problem. Still, I wonder why it started in the first place and then after some reboots it gets stuck. I tried different Kernels with no luck. Maybe I should try to flash a new bootloader? However, that could brick the device forever.

I have a very similar problem.
I flashed the [ROM] Roto JMI Pre-Rooted Firmware v2 [Feb 4, 2011], and got stuck on the Samsung Boot screen.
Now, I can't even get the Downloading mode to work. It opens fine, but Odin/Heimdall doessn't detect the Tab at all.
Hopefully, someone knows what's going on. If not, I'm taking it back to my carrier, and asking them to fix it (assuming they'll fix it).
Maybe this will help for the bootloader.
Its a bootloader patch. Please read thru the thread. Hope it helps.

Dont get what you mean by that. You cant get it to download mode but your tab start up fine?
Download mode = press vol down + power pn button.
As for odin/heimdall doesnt detect the tab it could be usb port (some reports in android development thread) or could be usb drivers.
As i need to switch usb drivers when i need to flash my tab & my dell streak.
Hope it helps to start you off.

I meant that I can get into Download mode, with the Downloading logo, but doesn't get detected by Odin. And it stays stuck on the Samsung boot logo if turned on normally. Can't get into recovery either.
Before I flashed the Roto ROM, Odin was working perfectly fine. I've been flashing other kernels and ROMs before. But now, the USB doesn't even seem to get detected. It's like nothing is plugged in. Can't even choose to install/uninstall old/new drivers.
I dont think it's the USB port, as I've tried to connect to Odin on 3 different computers, trying every available port on each. It's looking like the USB connector is just dead or something.
My tabs mainboard was broken, it was replaced and now it works again.

Same problem here man. I CAN get in to download mode. Odin recognize it normally. I CAN download normally. Look likes everything is normal, but after update it restarts, but hangs on Galaxy Tab Samsung logo. I've tryed everything with different firmware, custom-roms, hacking things, but with no success.
Can someone please help me?
Same problem here. My tab is stuck at samsung galaxy logo and until now, no one could provide an answer.
I flashed some ROM from samfirmware that must of locked the bootloader (JMF). Then I tried to flash JM6, JMA, JMC, JMK, JJ4, JJ7, JM5, JJ1, JID and almost all ROTO's. with and without pit files using ODIN 1.7. I also tried a stock ROGERS ROM (that i downloaded from this forum) using Heimdall. The tab always boots to samsung galaxy tab logo. I've done alot of reading in this forum and followed many flashing instructions but when applied, it doesn't work for me.
My main concern: is there still hope with the tab ? or it's gone forever.
Is there any specific order that i must follow when flashing ? ( ie, flash one specific ROM before another). The tab was canadian that was flashed to euro.
Thanks for reading my post.
the dbdata file is corrupted.
1) download this file
http://forum.xda-dev...98&d=1290261479
2) extract it
3) use Odin to flash it under the PDA option
-make sure repartition is UNCHECKED
-do not select any pit file
-leave everything else the same

Same prob. tab reboots to samsung logo.
Same Here, I tried many combinations with the help of experts on this board. Conclusion: shipped to Sammy for warranty repair.
For about a week now my samsung galaxy tab p1000 keeps freezing on the samsung logo screen and every minute ore so vibrates very short.
No matter how long i wait it keeps like that . Ive tryed the reset from the recovery mode (powerbutton + volume up) but no luck. The tab is still on a stock fw 2.2 i believe. and no root or anything.
Im very new on the whole rom stuf so some help is needed on how to restore the tab. I havent flashed it or anithing. Also it gives a error like in the screenshot below:
You should flash your tab and install a new firmware that's the only solution

oke i figured that much yesterday, when reading some topics, but wich rom do i need to use?? because i dont know how to root the tab because it wont boot ore is rooting not a must?
dude... get the latest 2.3.3 firmware...
you may check www.samfirmware.com to see latest firmware for your deivce. If you are in ASIA region, look for JPI edition. Its good, fast and stable.
Use ODIN to flash, with REPARTITION ENABLE... once complete flashing, reboot, and repeat the FLASHING again... DO IT TWICE..., but REPARTITION ONCE only...
Do i have to fully boot between flashing, or after first flash straight to download mode?

to play safe, let it boot.. but you can skip the configuration and shutdown and go into download mode..

Im at your same state. My tab hangs on samsung logo and lets me to download alone. I can help you with the drivers part. Im sure you have the Kies in your system. Just push the on button and connect your phone to the pc and run Kies. You have an option to troubleshoot which will update the drivers for your phone. This worked for me. For the rest of the part, there is a chap who is helping me on this forum and he advised me to go for stock ROM. Ill try that today after sufficiently charging up my phone.
I ve been searching for a while now and looks like this is common and nothing much to worry about. Ill keep you posted on what happened on my attempt to odin flash the stock ROM.
Hello friend, my tab is back and working fine now. Hope tried connecting kies to get your driver up for the tab. Once its up you can get to the download and flash stock rom using odin. This would bring your phobe back to life.
I am currently running on overcome experience rom. Its pretty good and they have great instructions on their site. Try that you should be all set.
Best of luck.
I have the exact same issue. I've been trying to flash a Euro 2.3.3 for the last 5 hours. Anything special you did before I create a new thread? I've done this a billion times on my old tab....I just got this one today off ebay.

Can you be more specific on the state of your G-Tab?
What firmware were you using before the problem occurs?
if you are updating from proyo, you will need to flash dbdata.rfs. For your reference you can follow these following steps (given you can access download mode).

Hi there.
I have a problem with my Samsung Galaxy Note since I wanted to make it rootable.
When I bought it, I could use any simcard inside, so it is "unlocked".
Yesterday, I wanted to use my phone to root it but some files can't be downloaded via WWW.MULTIUPLOAD.COM (i guess it is because of what happened to MEGAUPLOAD).
So, one of my first questions is : is USB DEBUGGING activated when using the Galaxy note for the first time or not at all? (I didn't activate it when using my Galaxy Note before flashing it)
Second, I have used Odin to flash a file (PDA slot), the file was hard to find but google could help (i'm just meaning that some links here seem to be "broken" on multiupload). The flash was fine and the phone boot back... to a yellow triangle.
No way to change it.
No backup from the rom, but I remember it is a KKA.
I 've looked in that thread ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1350960) to find everything that could help me, but the file is no more on multiupload
I tried via that thread, too :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1370156 , but the problem remains
Third, I don't have any jug usb to use and no CMW installed nor loaded.
Could a kernel help to solve the problem about the yellow triangle, using ODIN, or not? Or is it better to use a fully functionnal rom, as a KKA?
Any help/comment would be much appreciated
N.B : sorry for my english that can be "poor" sometimes :s
Can you exactly give the file name, which you have used to flash PDA section? and size of it

1. It doesn't matter while flashing using PC Odin.
2. Are you sure about which ROM you flashed ( Suspecting you have flashed Custom ROM)
3. Their is way to remove Triangle (!) , you should use JIG
follow the link for more details.

So, I wanted to flash that, using ODIN:
Recovery ClockworkMod Odin flashable.Tar
But on XDA, the link about it is in fact Superuser-3.0.6-efgh-signed.zip.
Did I miss something??
The file I could find using google was about 8Mo and the flash was quite fast.
(I used it for the PDA part)

When No Any other method works to Root your device, use this
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note that, this will downgrade your ROM to KJ1, after that you can update it.
Download: http://www.multiupload.com/YB9EL8D8O3
- Make sure your SGN is NOT connected to your computer
- Reboot your SGN into "download mode" (Vol down + Home + Power))
- Start ODIN
- Click the PDA button, and select the "SGN_XX_OXA_KJ1_FACTORYFS.tar" file
- Connect the SGN to your computer
- Make sure "repartition" is NOT checked
- Click the START button
- Wait for the phone to reboot TWICE
- Done.
Now you have your device Rooted, Install Mobile Odin Pro n update your device to any new ROM with Mobile Odin

I'm working right now but I can repost here in a few hours the exact name of the file I have found using google that I could not find over here.
Anyway, do you think I can "repair" it without any JIG USB?
And yes, it was on a custom rom (the phone is just new, only a few hours in my hands ) but it's not my first one (i could flash a HD2 and the Samsung Tablet with no problems...

This thing you did wrong, I have made lot effort to update Rooting guide here, still somebody How can find this guide i dont know.
Basically you have flashed with Netchip method, which was very first appeared, but later netchip also said, to not to use, b'coz it causing raise Flash counter
as well yellow triangle.
Now onwards remember, NEVER use PC ODIN to Flash Any Custome ROM/Kernel.
I am updating link here soon, how to reset your counter. You requires JIG for that
Edit : here is guide how to reset binaru count, n remove yellow triangle
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1354888

BTW till you get JIG, just go to this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997 and download and flash ROM using PC odin(here it is stock ROM u can use it safely). you will get your phone working. later you can reset counter with JIG
Download my guide from here, how to update ROM, you can use Updating ROM with PC Odin section from guide.
Many thanks again, dr.ketan for such reply so fast
Hmmmm then I will have to wait for a JIG. I will order a JIG, it seems the price is not so expensive.
Thanks again for your comments and help, much appreciated

My 2 cents about that question, but if I have a message saying that there is an error while turning on the phone now :
Firmware upgrade encoutered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again.
The problem is, when using Kies (for Windows), it is looking for the Galaxy Note, and, even if it is connected via USB, nothing happens, it's looking long, long, long, time, then, it says that it can not find it.
So, is a JIG still required?

See, JIG is required for totally different reason.
Your issue regarding, not connecting kies / Booting phone, won't be solved by JIG.
Jig can b use in two condition. One when you are unable to enter in download mode. I think, you dont have this issue
another To reset counter, for which you require JIG in your case.
Error you are facing right now during booting of device, can be solved by Reflashing ROM. You can flash any stock ROM with PC Odin, shud be enough to solve it.
Now regarding use of JIG, just enter in download mode, check Lt upper corner of devoce, it will have number of flash you have performed, i think in your case it must be 1 or more. which in normal case should be zero. Only To reset that counter, you needs Jig.
Thanks again.
Well, I download another stock rom but I got a "fail" (red color) above "id:com", when flashing on ODIN.
I am using Windows7 and tested the compatibility mode, the problem remains.
I have .md5 file that I put on PDA part. Then I click on Start but nothing, except the "fail" message.
When turning off the phone and on, I got the other message, said in my previous post :
"Firmware upgrade encoutered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again."
So, Am I missing something.
About the download mode, the number is 7 in fact.
Oh I remember the file I wanted to flash via ODIN : netchip-cwm-update2.tar
It seemed to work just because the phone turned off and I got a "green" message that said that it was ok. (PASS).
I read one of your thread, when nothing works, so that man should go here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18981227&postcount=4
but the file (link) is not working now, so I can not get the file to test :s
But since then, I can not boot on Android anymore...
Yes unfortunately link is down since 2 days
Ya thats i guessed when i read you have used superuser zip, i have said earlier in 1 msg, you have used netchip.
Anyway, once go to recovery (vol up +home+power)n wipe data, clear cache, clear dwlvic caxhe.
Then put phone in download mode. Close firewall/antivirus on pc, open odin, connect device with download mode(vol down+home+power), if id com glow yellow, thn proceed with start

The main problem is that, too.
I can not enter Recovery, I got the yellow triangle.
I can only go in download mode, and when turning off and on the phone, the message said above :s
is JIG the only way to solve all that?
is my phone "blocked"? I am trying to test another stock rom, I'll give it a try and let you guess what happens.
EDIT 22:37:
The flash with that rom (N7000XXLA4_N7000DREKL1_DRE) has failed, even if it is a stock one.
Can I try to use any other rom from another country? Before I tried to flash the rom, I saw it was a KKA. Can I try so with a LA3 or something else, still stock one?
Oh man, that's so bad....
I think I found the problem...
I am using Windows7 64 bits.
My wife is on WindowsXP and I am using Odin on her netbook, and it's quite better !
the flashing is going on.
Hey !!!! that's all good !!!!! ^^'
My Galaxy Notes is working again ^'^'
Maybe should it be mentionned to be careful when using Windows7 64 bits, if some other members would have the same problem when flashing their roms?
Congrates !
ya it is common problem(win7), many time it has been discussed , but it is not that everytime it not works, but it happens in few cases.
When reading your answer yesterday, I thought I might had a chance to make my Galaxy Note working again without JIG.
Now I've downloaded Samsung drivers, for Windows7 64 bits, and I can flash with no problem. I'm backing up and can use CWM
Thanks again for your help and answers
I had the same problem, but then I decided to use the ORIGINAL usb cable and see: it did the trick !!!. Even on Windows 10 64bit !.
I had Android 4.0.3 (IceCream Sandwich) on my Galaxy S GT-I9000B (I did install it through Odin, nothing went wrong), but is was laggish (too much for it to handle, I think) and after a few months, I decided to roll it back to 2.3.3 (Gingerbread).
I started the process to install the firmware through Odin3 v1.85 - the file I download (from sammobile.com/firmware, had only one file that I used on the PDA space.
Odin recognized my phone and I started to install it, but after a while my phone was stuck on the downloading screen (2 hours of installation, I tought that something went wrong).
I then turned my phone off to try and install again, but when I turned it on, there were a Phone - exclamation mark - Computer Symbol.
I can get it to dowlonad mode (Volume Down+Home+Power), but when I plug it to the pc, it says "unknown device" and it can't find drivers for it.
I think I have the latest drivers from Samsung (I had from Kies and I re-downloaded a file somewhere from this forum named SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_1_5_6_0.exe).
It appears that since windows can't install the drivers, Odin doesn't recognize the device - it was recognizing it before, when I was installing the firmware.
Now I'm stuck - I tried anything I saw in this forum and in other places - I did even pray for a miracle, but it didn't work
I know that there must be a way, but I don't know how.
Before I forget, I'm using Windows 7 Ultimate x64.
If you can get it in download mode everything should be fine, I've had a problem like this, my pc couldn't see the phone in download no matter what. Try to use another USB port, better another PC. Also I've heard that x64 doesn't get along well with Odin. If possible you can try Linux and Heimdall, after all Android is Linux too.

Ok, k4Z3666, has given you a starting point...the phone is still in download mode but without a booting ROM, so its OK, the problem is your PC, USB cable or USB port. If you want to be quick about it, just try on a lap top..if not a simple Reboot of PC ( after removing power cord) and Phone (after a battery Pull), and a switch to a different USB port at the back of PC can solve this for some...for other solutions try these http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27205737&postcount=4571 anything else you may need can be found on My Android collections., link below

I tried other USB Ports and also rebooting. It was working just fine - it seems like a driver problem to me.
My notebook is dead, but I'll try using someone else computer.
Does Odin runs in Windows XP? I might try it in my virtual box - I doubt that it will work, but it is the best thing I have to do untill tomorrow.
I got it working in my mother's notebook - should I try something different? I only have the PDA, should I try a PIT?
I don't know what those do, but I read somewhere that PIT is used to recover bricked phones.
EDIT: I installed only the PDA, it worked fine on the 2nd time (first time, it got stuck but I could make it work changing the usb port and cable).
Now it is on loop - it repeats the samsung logo over and over again. Any ideas now?

Opps..you got an i900B, so make sure you are only using I9000B ROMS as i9000 is not compatible with your phone

Assuming that you're on the right rom for your phone can you enter recovery mode? Try reinserting battery, and enter recovery with [vol+, menu button, power on]

I got it working in my mother's notebook - should I try something different? I only have the PDA, should I try a PIT?
I don't know what those do, but I read somewhere that PIT is used to recover bricked phones.
EDIT: I installed only the PDA, it worked fine on the 2nd time (first time, it got stuck but I could make it work changing the usb port and cable).
Now it is on loop - it repeats the samsung logo over and over again. Any ideas now?

Yep if u want to back to stock u need pit file because ICS use different system file
Why u don't like ICS ? Its way better and faster than sammy ROM even its more stable , I think u should try it again with devil kernel with oc to 1.2 it will fly u can add some live oc which will give more fluidity

I used a firmware from my country (available here: sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&model=GT-I9000B&pcode=ZTO&os=1&type=1#firmware) and I wiped the cache (I'm not sure what this means, but I believe it is the 2 options on volume up+menu+power)

ICS wasn't faster here - it was laggish and always crashed some common apps (gallery, music player). I believe that the firmware wasn't completely "done" as it was being adapted from another version (my phone is brazilian) and some functionalities that it has (i.e. digital TV) wasn't available.
What I done to correct the boot was simple (I found a tutorial in a brazilian site, so it had all the roms that I needed).
1) Used a PIT and a stock rom to get it back to factory version;
2) Upgraded to Froyo (original) - That was kind of a mistake, the tutorial said to do it because then KIES would update it automatically to Gingerbread. The phone was fully functional, but KIES said that it couldn't update it (it recognized the phone and everything).
The tutorial stoped there, but since I had the ROM, I used Odin to install Gingerbread (the one that was looping) and it was done.
Now I need to remember how to root it because there are some dumb apps who can't get away (i.e. Orkut app, some demo games).
Thank you all for the help!

From recovery you can always try to flash another kernel, that would probably resolve things too. Anyways the problem's solved, glad to help
I went through all the posts on bricking, did what others tried but to no avail. I had CyanogenMod on it with TWRP and tried to do a restore (bad idea) that's when it bricked.
I got the stock tar file, used a USB jig to get me into download mode, used Odin 3.7 to flash it, all went smooth but she still hangs on the Samsung logo. I've tried it 3 times, same results.
Do I need a Pit file?
Am I missing anything really obvious and important?
Should I flash a rooted stock tar since it's was rooted before I bricked it?
All the links on the 'Goodies' page for the Note are all dead links now so please don't refer me there.
Thanks for any help.

Turns out the USB issue with Windows 7 Pro (64bit) was the problem. Got it all done on an XP computer I keep as a backup for this very reason.
Stock ICS is working great. No more B.S.O.D.'s Yay!

I'm having the same problem. Trying to put my note back to stock. Now it is also stuck at the samsung logo during bootup. I can't get into recovery mode, tried installing 2 different stock roms and nothing. I have twrp, so I installed cwm to see if I can use that recovery and nope. The only thing I can do is go to download mode. I also tried doing all of this on an XP as I also did this first on Windows 7, and didn't work for me. Someone help please.
Exactly same issue
Hey
