Congrats, You've very likely bricked your Tab. You have a wifi only model which has different hardware to the roms here. In future read before you walk.
Enjoy!

does the pc recognise the tab at all? Sadly TheATHEiST is almost certainly correct in saying you've bricked the tab.
He is also correct in saying that you really should have read the instructions. Yes, really. If you reply and say you did follow instructions, please post a link to said instructions.
The roms are for the 3g tabs.
as far as I know, no one has made a custom rom/kernel for the wifi only tab. Its not the same because your wifi tab has different components compared to the 3g tab.

he remind me by someone bricked his tab because he flashed overcome over P1010 and even there is BIG note in overcome says DO NOT FLASH IF YOU P1010 .. and he replied me back , owh really i missed this
to the OP you see like Stoney says , check if your pc can still recognize your tab , if not , congrats you bricked your tab ... the nearest samsung service center will fix it for u hope u under the warranty , if so , u just say ( what is happened to my tab , i slept at night and i left it on the charger , i woke up i found it like this DEAD ) what makes my tab DEAD ? ? with some action acting with drama , u probably will fix it under the warranty ...
NOTE : this is not the right place for posting Question ...
good luck with SAMSUNG and don't forget the much drama u got the much u'll success to convince them
who agree with me , THUMBS UP

No point in crying, I was been blunt with you because you have nobody to blame except yourself.
If you had READ the topic(s) properly you would NOT be in this situation. You have flashed a software to your device that has a different bootloader then yours, hence you've bricked your device.
If your device is new you should take it straight back to the shop and plead dumb, say you put your device on charge and next day it wouldn't turn on properly. Alternatively say you tried to update it via Samsung Kies.
If they refuse to fix for you then you will need to pay for JTAG repair.
Congratulations, you have learned the hard way, next time learn the easy way and read properly.

+1 my thoughts exactly ..
Hello!
During flashing leaked kernel my phone was on soft brick, I wiped cache partition and data in CWM. This was the end of my beloved Note, it is 100% dead and none of the possible fixes posted works so far.
I have heard there is a possible fix by re partitioning and connection the phone in Linux environment, this way the computer reads the phone and can be fixed by repartitioning and could get into download mode. Please let me know if anybody confirms this.
Alternatively, what is the next step. My phone is still under warranty but I am scared if Samsung would find out the history of rooting or as my Phone is 100% dead they would not be able to find out, confused.......
If the motherboard needs to be replaced, how much would it cost, where should I take and most important if my phone recovers can I still play around with custom ROMs?
Look forward to suggestions bring my phone live as I purchased it on loan and it brings immense pain to pay emi for a dead phone.
Regards,
AK
Even it bricked by emmc bug, there shud be download mode still available
-First try to get other charged battery (or charge yours) and try to put in download mode, and look to Lt upper corner what is your flash score. If it is zero, simply reclain warranty.
-Otherwise try this

Thanks. I tried using charged batteries but still does not get into Download Mode also after reading somewhere I tried to connect using Odin assuming screen would be black but Odin detects. Even this did not work
So, no way of getting DM or looking at binary count.

Your phone is under warranty yet you are asking for costs? Those "recovery" method will give you a "crippled" device in terms of mem capacity.
So go and claim warranty. They wont know anything since your phone is totally dead anyway.

Hey, I just cam back from SS service. they said it could be a motherboard issue and they are replacing the motherboard.
Does that mean they would install the Stock Rom from fresh, I am sure yes.
Waiting for my recovered phone and educating myself to safely play around with custom ROMs.
One last question, which is the best stable custom ROM available for Galaxy Note, in terms of UI and better battery life?
Many Thanks.

Congrats on the replacement;
Custom ROM's are kind of personal preference, Best bet is to do your research now while you wait and you can decide for yourself which features you like / want / need in a ROM..
Suggestions to check would be ParanoidAndroid / CleaNote from my point of view, I've tried both but still run Stock ICS with custom Kernel.. Suits my needs...
while gaming, my phone suddenly hang and i decide to restart the device itself. upon booting, i am stuck at the "samsung" logo. I have tried flashing stock rom and kernel but to no avail. i can still go into download mode and recovery mode. Anybody know whats gone wrong?
And if i send for waranty, it is a one to one exchanged?

what is the current rom on your phone? have you tried going to recovery and wiping dalvik cache? still same thing? If it is, worst case you can try (since both Recovery and Download works still) is to wipe data in recovery and restart your phone again(Don't try doing this if your using an infected kernel and/or in ICS Rom)
Going back,
You have a soft bricked phone.. Why would you exchange it for warranty? you can easily fix your issue without returning it to Samsung.

Same problem...pls HELP !!!
I tried to install a custom rom and then the horror began. I can't turn it on geto to download or recovery mode.. I sent it to service because I still have a warranty but I don't know will they see the history of installed roms. The man I talked to said to me that they can do it but I read a comment that it is impossible to see so I got a hope. They also told me that it could be about motherboard and that they will do everything they can to save it. I am really afraid of losing my Note. I hope you guys will help me and tell me sth good.. I am also interested is it possible to fix it with usb jig. ?
thanks, my regards..
Already it's with samsung. If they cant do anything to revive, its a motherboard replacement.

Don't worry, if it is with samsung alrd. They'll sure give you replacement of the motherboard if they can't do anything to your existing one. This is considered as the "manufacturing fault", and therefore, they must be able to replace it.
1st few batches, N7000 came out under gingerbread 2.3.6 technology, and it worked very well without the eMMC brick bug. It is happened only when they upgrade to ICS, with their own stock kernel, which triggered the brick bug.
So long as they are delaying the fix for their own stock kernel with the eMMC brick bug removed, I think samsung is still liable to give replacement to user, no matter what you did to your device. As long as it is eMMC brick bug, and you have your warranty.
Why ?
very simple... Even most of the samsung sales person on their respective outlets, they know a lil bit or perhaps don't know at all about this bug. Unless the sales person is those who likes to play with handphone like most of us here.
And if they do know... they won't tell you as well about this bug. Otherwise, will you buy it ? :fingers-crossed:
So as a consumer, we have the right to be replaced if the bug has been triggered due to factory reset / wipe of data, since no one told us about this. **peace**.
Really do hope you get your replacement once they call you to take your phone.
Good Luck !

Hey Guys,
I have Samsung Galaxy Ace (GT-S5830), recently while uprading the my ace with the Cyanogenmod10, i had bricked my phone, now it never goes into the download mode so that i can flash the firmware with Odin. Actually yesterday, i used Rom Manager to Install the Custom Rom, and when said yes to install the custom rom, phone shutdown, and never started again, i googled around for some way out to go into the download mode, tried all the key combination, but could not go into the download mode, i tried the Home + VolumeUp and connected the USB to PC, with this method, my phone was detected, but because it was not in the download mode (i guess), so Odin just stucked at setup connection... and does not go further. Have anyone went through this dilemma, can anyone help me out of this, my warranty period is elapsed, so was thinking to get phone back to life myself.
Please anyone help me with this, i love the phone... I know that was my mistake to use Rom Manager to Install the Rom.
take it to the service. there is no other way. i tried everything, belive me. repairing costed me 200hrk (around 45$).
and
DONT USE ROM MANAGER
By taking it to a service center...Only way to recover it

check the back of your phone.when you remove your battery you will see 3 gold squares..when you take it to the service center and it becomes 9 silver small squares it means that they didnt change the motherboard they just solder it to connect wires to the motherboard they used jtag...:cyclops:

Check for imei no. If they use JTAG it won't change since the motherboard/chip set of the phone is same.

Don't know where, but its more expensive than a brand new ace (and lots of low-mid range smartphones)
I bricked mine 1 week after getting it. I took it in and said it shut off and I can't turn it back on. They made sure it wasn't the battery, then replaced it under warranty. So if you still have a warranty, it's worth a try. The guys at the store won't know you've been screwing around with it.
To use Rom Manager you need a CM-compatible rom installed. It says that right on Rom Manager's download page. DO NOT USE WITH STOCK ROMS EVER!!!

Do you have recovery mode?
So the other day i was on my captivate and i had just factory reset it to original eclair. so i tried updating it with kies but it kept failing. So i then tried using Odin and accidently checked bootloader and now my phone turned off and wont show any signs of life. PLEASE IM ASKING YOU PLEASE HELP! What do I do?
Can u get into Download mode with button combo or jig ?
If ur phone shows zero signs of life, even when plugged in to a wall charger, then it is probably hard bricked and so u will need jtag service in order to bring ur phone back to life. Check out mobiletechvideos.com, they can fix ur phone.

It doesn't format the bootloaders per say, it you flash a stock ROM with Odin that has bootloaders and if it gets interrupted while it's replacing them, your phone will be bricked as it doesn't have a way to boot (hence the name bootloaders).
The JTAG service basically pushes the bootloaders into the phone. It's something we can't do on our own unless we have the right equipment (riftbox).
Like 4-2ndtwin mentioned, try to get some response from your phone, anything that would show life. That means you can recover on your phone. From there, you'd have to be able to get in download mode and flash Odin KK4 without ANY interruption.
My phone wont turn on and when i put it in charge it wont even show the battery charging. What else can i do to fix my phone?

Try the button combo to get in download mode (could even try a jig). If that fails too, you'll have to get jtag service.

From what I've read in your thread, you had the i9000 image working, correct? If so, why not just roll with it?
All Captivate/i9000 rom works with the i9000 bootloader. Captivate GB Rom will need to get the 2.3.5 i9000 Music Player APK, but aside from that, it all works. AOSP roms like Cyanogenmod and Slimbean will work out of the box if you get the captivate version. To install them, you'll need a slight workaround though:
Flash a kernel with CWM.
From there, flash the Captivate Glitch Kernel V13. It only comes in .ZIP format, which is why you need a CWM kernel before hand
Flash CM7 to convert the partition table(IMPORTANT. Rom will not boot if you skip this step.)
Flash anything from here on. If it throw a status 7 about device not being SGH-i896/SGH-i897, etc..., flash the Glitch Kernel before attempting to flash the ROM. You do not need to flash CM7 again.
(I know other ROM should have converted the partition table, but in reality it doesn't. Since you're flashing from Glitch, a CM7/MIUI kernel, they assumes you already have the MTD partition layout, and only resize it instead of doing a full conversion. CM7 check the partition table regardless of which kernel you're flashing it from.)
As a plus, Deep Idle works only with the i9000 bootloader. You'll get sleep of death otherwise. If you want your ATT World Phone image back, you can flash the custom param.lfs and change it manually. This can only be done from Touchwiz ROM though.
HI,
My Samsung galaxy s III has bricked. I can go to the download mode though. Can I flash a custom rom to recover the phone ? If yes, then please give me the link to the rom which I can flash via odin. Thanks.

Try flashing stock rom from sammobile.com or samsung-updates.com
You may need to become a member(it's free) to download. Once you download the rom for your region and device, unzip the file and flash the .tar.md5 file in odin

thanks. but i tried it. no luck to me. i think board is gone
Does it even go to recovery? Does it even go to download mode? Please post the error in ODIN or the error on the phone screen because the "board is gone" is too little. We are trying to help you but you don't give us enough information.

EMMC Brick Bug takes another phone down. Unfortunately the EMMC is dead. You can try and take it to a specialized repair shop and have the EMMC replaced. But it would probably be very expensive. Download mode works because the SoC actually boots for download mode, EMMC is not accessed. Nand erase all is useless in this case, and Kies doesn't know what to do.

It will work normally, but make sure to take an i9300 motherboard for the normal S3 and an i9305 motherboard for the i9305. And also make sure to not damage anything. And not loose any screw (lost one already and regret it).
The IMEI will be different (if you have the box) but other than that, make sure the motherboard is tested, works 100% and doesn't have any problem.
Don't forget to push the tanks button just in case

how to change IMEI.... i wish to put my old IMEI ( in Box ) any option??
Very tricky, may not work and it could possibly blacklist both the IMEIs. Generally, IMEI copying is done using specialized programmes, but it is not generally both allowed, practical and in some parts, or global, ILLEGAL.
