[Q] Boot loop even when going back to stock? - Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I had been running an AOSP ROM which started giving me problems with suggesting that I needed to hard reset the tablet. Since I wanted to try a different ROM anyway, I flashed one via CWM. This got me to a bootloop. Then, I figured I used heimdall to go back to a stock ROM and I'm staring now at a Verizon logo bootloop.
Does anyone happen to know what I can do here? I just want to eventually end up on a CM 10.1 ROM, that's the only goal.
Thanks!

When you use heimdall, is it with pit file?

[Q] Downgrade to Overcome 7 from AKOP

I have installed AKOP with MTD on the P1000, everything is fine but just find out that the system is a bit lag, even the CPU has overclocked to 1200, so I have been thinking go back to Overcome 7 which is what I was using previously.
Can I just copy the overcome 7 rom to SD and reboot the Tab to recovery mode and flash the rom from there?
Thanks everyone
No. You need to restock to GB using Odin/heimdall

Not only that, you will need to repartition by including pit file.
Thanks. I forgot to mention that.
But I could argue that it was implied
I mean, how to successfully restock to gb without that!

:laugh: hahaha. I can feel the implication. And we really don't want a bootloop here.

If you know everything your questions are a surprise.
My answer was short because there really isn't anything more to do. Why should I talk and fill an answer with bloatwords?
Of course you should make backups (in recovery and/or with TB) of your devices and data - but that isn't a "must" only a sign of "diligence".
I heard some ROM doesnt work with philz or blablabla and im just afraid cuz i never try. And another one is i saw some custom mention LSZ or anything else, i afraid that official JB XXLSZ only for XXLSZ and will brick if i flash it on XXLRI. And im asking what to do before flashing, because i thought there would be something i need to install/flash before flashing that official JB. Thx guys

Help me! ASAP

Yesterday i had to rooting my tab and then i founded one trick that i think its a lot easier. Im using CF-Root, then i used to flash with odin. No problem appear after that, but the problem coming after i had to reboot my tab; some sound glitch occur on samsung bootanim, and the last big problem for me is, now i cant turn on my tab again it stuck at bootanim. I know how to fix that problem; just flashing back to stock rom. But, i dont want to do that because i have a ton of games and app who will be disappear if im going to flashing back to stock.
So, anyway that can fix my problem without back to stock? Can someone give me a link about stock or custom gb(2.3.3) kernel? Maybe it can solve my problem. Please someone. Help me

Do you have the exact rom version that you were running? Maybe someone has the Rom, and extracting the kernel is possible.

I repacked the JQ1 euro rom's kernel in a tar
http://goo.gl/Bpmcr
try flash that in Odin like when you did CF-root
Then boot to the stock recovery and do a wipe cache (not sure of stock recovery has that..?)
anyway, try and see.
Else you probably want a restock.
If eventually you want to restock, just follow my signature to Overcome links.

you may be out of option but to restock.
Using CF-root was always a hit and miss.
that is why I recommend Overcome method every time.

No. Dont do that.
Just flash overcome kernel using Odin.
Then use the cwm recovery ti flash overcome rom 4.1
Then it is s GB rom with root.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Yap. Thats what i want to do. So.. just for sure bcause i dont want to brick my tab.
1. Flash overcome kernel via odin
2. Flash overcome rom via cwm
3. Finish
That is right?

Bricked by downgrading. Help

Hi,
I'd recently tried out CM10 roms on my device. Thought I'd downgrade back to Gingerbread since I felt it to be more stable. I tried reflashing the original 2.3.4 gb via Odin. Now I'm having infinite boot loops. Did I miss anything? I believe this is because of the boot loader being screwed up. Is there an odin file which contains the radio/boot/etc so that I can flash them one by one instead of one single package that I find in other links / sites?
Kindly help.
TIA.
Power off, hold power+home, wipe data from stock recovery. Cm10.1's data causes gb to panic.

[Q] Custom Recovery for Sprint Galaxy Tab 7

I recently rooted my Sprint galaxy tab 7 and need a custom recovery for it. I have look thru the forums but all I find is old non working links. can anyone help find it custom recovery eather CWM or TWRP?
Thanks
No one have an answer?????????
It depends on what are you going to do with it.
If for cm ROM, just unpack the ROM, look for the boot.img and flash with heimdall.

I just rooted the tablet and still have the original recovery and rom. I need the files to flash the custom recovery but all the links are outdated and non working.
My question is, what do you want the cwm recovery for?
This link is working.
