I bricked my 8.9 Wifi Tab

My Wifi tab is stuck on the Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 Screen. I used odin to flash back to factory rom. Osin said pass and rebooted but still stuck on Samsung galaxy tab 8.9 screen. What do I need to do next? In recovery mode it says: E: failed to mount /system (invalid argument) E: install_application_for_customer:Can't mount. /system copy application failed.
--Appling Multi-CSC...
E: failed to mount /system (invalad argumenrt)
E: install_application_for_customer:Can't mount. /system
E: multi_csc:Can't mount/system

Did you format system? Try loading another ROM, seems to me your tablet is without any rom now.

I can't even get into either recovery or download mode! Neither does the 'charging' screen shows when hooking up to power.
I first installed CWM 6.0.1.2 which went fine. Then I installed a new ROM and immediately GAPPS. That last install hung at approx 80% according the progress bar. After a while (more than 5min) I pressed the power button to shut the device down. Now it wont boot at all, not even into any download or recovery mode.
Any ideas?

I might have completely ruined my galaxy p7300 !

I have the exact same problem! I installed CWM 6.0.1.2. I started installed a new ROM...it couldn't see any program so I hit the power button...Now it is not starting into recovery mode...completely dark!!!
Did you figure out how to sort this?

Same issue here, it wont do anything, screen stays black, tried Power + Vol Down, also Power + Vol Up. Nothing.
My PC is seeing it as APX, which was a broken driver, after some searching I came across NVIDIA USB Boot-recovery driver for mobile devices which my PC now recognises it as.
But it's still not doing anything.

Hi
I had the same. Did a wipe cache and factory reset and everything worked fine again.
Go to this by pressing power and volume up

Pressing power & volume up doesn't do anything...the tablet stays black. I am in the same shoes as WodgeFW and others on this forum!
Guys, it seems we're doomed!

Same for me. also after flashing CWM 6.0.1.2 and CM9 with ICS kernel. Flash was ok, but boot never ended. So i hit the power button.
Now only apx mode and bootloader seems to be locked - can't use nvflash. Also tried to drain battery - but that doesn't help.

Same problem here, after update of clockworkmod recovery to 6.0 my rom installation froze and i pressed the power button after 15 min.
Now all is black, Considering taking a chance with a warranty claim but unsure if it will accepted.
If anyone finds a solution to this it would make my day, if not then i guess its lesson learned.

Run odin on your pc hold volume up and power check if odin reads the tablet it will show com 1-20 depends on port if so you can recover. Even if your screen is blank give it a go.its worth a try.

Thanks for the suggestion but no luck.
Am currently trying to drain battery by power cycling with constantly pressed power button. After checking other threads with similar issues it seems. To be related to a certain version of CWM. Hopefully a total drain of battery will solve my problem.

Hi, could you tell us what kernel/ROM did you use before brick your tab? Also what CWM version did you use? From what I have read, it has to have both bad kernel and CWM in combination to cause this. Thanks

I have same problem, now i wait full drain of battery. Tab 8.9 32gb-3g. cwm version 6.0.1.2, firmware cm9-2012-09-03-experimental with A1-V1.6.2 kernel. That was nice combination - but google maps reboot my tab. i go to recovery, wipe all(data+cache+dalvik) and try to install latest cm9-nightly. when progress bar was at 60-70% tab freeze. after 10 minutes i press power button for reboot and get black screen, like topic-starter. Maybe that will be helpfull

It's a little more subtle than that. There are essentially 2 kernels on the system: 1 in the recovery image (e.g. CWM) and 1 in the boot image (what is usually called 'the kernel'). Either one of these could cause the problem if it doesn't use the right calls (or, conversely, uses the wrong calls) into the eMMC driver. Since most of us use the recovery to do wipes & resets that is the one most likely to cause the problem. However, it has also been known to be caused by doing factory resets and wipes via the ROM (which uses the boot image kernel).
So, for this to happen you could have: a safe recovery and a bad boot; a bad recovery and a safe boot; or have both be bad.
As has been mentioned, the last 'safe' CWM appears to be 6.0.0.8.
Since the various threads indicate that Samsung is aware of this I'd assume the Stock recovery and boot images use a kernel that is 'safe'. That may be a bad assumption, but it only seems to be the use of non-Stock components that causes this, at least from what I've read so far.
Somewhere along the line a kernel that didn't have this defensive code in it made it into the source trees and then into our lives.

Thanks for explaining that so clearly.

Did anybody using other than cwm 6.0.1.2 and got brick too? Just wondering if other cwm version has problem with ICS kernel. Because apparently we suddenly have many deadbrick tabs appearing after we get the ICS kernel for our tab. Thanks

Can you get it to download mode by pressing start+volume down buttons simultaneously and flash original HC ROM and start from there? I believe yours is not caused by the brickbug. If you have brick bug your tab will have black screen (someone correct me if I am wrong about this).

[Q] boot loop maybe

Hi
I think* i was trying to do a back up or custom recovery just before it went pear shaped, phone froze and i took the battery out and then ->
The phone doesn't get past boot image ( custom boot image of terminators from the movie ).
I have tried factory reset , trying different roms on sd card and then booting into recovery - but i only had the default recovery on the phone.
I have a kdz file image and a few dz files as well as zip but they don't 'work' , even if i rename them 'update'
The lg support tool gets to a point where it says ' super duper bad , your fxxxxd or fatal error or something so it wont even start a fix or update.
'Unkdzing' only gives me a dz file and .dll
I tried uptestEX ,dzextract,lgflashmuncher,expand,lgextract and extractor kdz - but on that it stops with some WMD warning - in spanish i think.
This is the 5th day ive tried to fix the prob but i fail.
After I un screw the phone can it be flashed/shocked with electricity on the part that holds the info ? ( thought id ask before going ahead and doing it anyways )
The phone is rooted

try this

have you tried all methods here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2068321

Hi
Yeah I tried those and those led me to other links of people trying other methods but none of them worked out.
Basically I think I need to shelf the phone until there's a boot loader - that should fix most/all problems shouldn't it ?
I like the phone so I'll order another one same colour same place same bat channel :good:

did you change or reinstall busybox

busy box was changed days before

but i am sure, you didn't rebooted before this after replacing busybox. Busybox takes effect after reboot.

yeah i agree as its exactly the same as happened to my phone, i had installed busybox 1.20 and didnt reboot then a while later the phone froze and when i rebooted it stuck at boot logo

I was doing a few things with the phone so yeah, you're probably right.
So is there a fix ?

I tried and it didn't work
What should the screen look like when its plugged in and turned on ? , I did the vol + power key and its statiky* and sometimes vibrates. So i tried vol - and power, vol + and home and power, vol - and home and power but total commander still didn't see the phone connected to it.
I extracted adb to total commander and i click on it when total commander is open then I have to click connect to device then a box pops up and i input COM4 ( matched it up with device manager ) but nothing happens.
The only 'normal' screen is when it is in sw update mode, other than that its either grey or pink or white and vibrates at times with all sometimes.
Ok I tried vol + and power with the battery in and when i click on adb the device ID is shown but when i click on that, its totally empty.. no folders or files , completely blank.
Also next to the network 3 pc image it still says [none]
When i try to copy the new busybox to the device id it says 'please remove the write protection'.. so I right click the busybox file and click unblock but same message again
It has full permissions.

you need to keep hold of the keys until it starts up.it will vibrate and screen will go blank about 2 times before it boots into the correct mode,sorry i didnt think of writing that into my other post

yeah it takes like 5 seconds for it to reboot and then the 'notice' screen appears, but still it says ' please remove the write protection '

Also noticed on my pc under device manager that android adapter has yellow triangle.
I went to LG site and got the driver but it didn't install, even found generic driver but it didn't install, also let windows find one but it didn't install, also tried manually but android driver just wont install.
My understanding is without that android driver total command won't work.

hi sorry to hear your still having problems, all i can suggest is uninstall the drivers and reinstall without the device connected,also are you leaving it til it comes to the screen has a window with a phone and and cables with a red hand covering them,
the driver that you really need it too load is the called Android Sooner single ADB Interface, as far as im aware that when booting into this mode it doesnt load your currently corrupted system files maybe after you retry installing it should hopefully work also if you havent already installed the lg support tool then it would be easier for you to install that and install the drivers that way,they can be found through the following link
http://www.lg.com/uk/support/mobile-support
il have a good think and look at what could be the problem if you are still having problems

yeah I have that driver and two others, nothing is working unfortunately

i9001 bricked?

Hi guys, i gonna tell you about how my i9001 was stuck in a bootloop. Maybe you could help me. I'm sick of it.
Cause: I installed cm10 and cwm5 or 6 as recovery and upgrade my device using Ota Updater. When I restarted my i9001, it got stuck in a bootloop.
What my i9001 can display: It can access to rampdump mode and download mode. In case I try to turn on my i9001 or access to recovery mode the Samsung logo/word is shown twice and stops showing anything else. It often gets stuck showing the typical grey battery flat (with a loading stopped) and the black screen alternately. This is caused when I a disconnect the USB cable from my computer/laptop.
Attempts: i've tried everything except for the right solution. Lots of forum threads and nothing works for me. I've tried:
1.- Boot_loader for device boot.
2.- I've flashed an stock rom: XXKQP, and 2 more: BVKPC y XXKQ1. Each one are official.
3.- And then recovery-clockwork-5.5.0.4 and -6.0.1.2.
4.- I've tried, then, flashing feamodrecovery 1.2.
5.- Nothing works for me.
I've been using Odin 4.43. AriesVE in OPS section and when flashing these roms: one package. For recovery packages: one package and pda (I tried these two options).
I can't reach at recovery mode. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Greetings!

If you get some errors, write them here...
If everything goes well, then it is not what im expecting (in that case problem is probably easier to solve)...

First link: another typical manual for installing a stock rom via Odin. During the process my device powered off. It was supposed to reboot. After the process ended, i disconnected it from PC and its screen showed a grey empty battery (with a loading in the middle) and word "Samsung" alternatively.
Second link: this was the solution for my first brick. Then, my device showed this yellow triangle. This second time is annoying me. I haven't found any solution to change, at least, the behaviour of my device.
Any other different solution? Thnks guys.

First I hope you had ensured that it was actually an M110S and not another variation of i9000
yes, Korean phones always have everything in Korean, but once having a boot-able ROM, you can use settings menu to change to English. which repair kit did you use? , as long as its in download mode you should be able to flash again, either with Odin3 or heimdall. also what stage of flashing did you complete .
just flash again but make sure you have ample battery charge, as power failure or pulling out usb connection can break the bootloader and you will have a big headache , hard bricking it and only a technician with JTAG can recover it.

Ok, when you complete first stage does your phone boot up using the Eclair ROM? I normal circumstances it should? you say you completed all four stages, , was the flashing completed as successful in ODin3 and your phone rebooted into download mode?
If so try and check your USB port on your phone if you have any lint or anything that may be shorting them and did this phone got in contact with water?
cause what you say is rather strange for any unit as a successful flash can endup in some sort of boot process and never into download mode.

Firstly I flashed all the files through heimdall in ubuntu not Odin3.
And at no stage it returned any error. At the first stage the download mode was in english on the phone, it had a yellow triangle and below it was saying "downloading" after I flashed the korean .pit file the phone rebooted back into download mode but the text below the yellow triangle was now in korean. After every flash the phone returned into download mode.
I checked as you said, the problem is before I knew the "Home + Power" button combo to access the download mode the phone booted to Samsung screen and hung there and now it goes no where except the korean download mode.

Deleted!

Okay I've figured out the problem with my phone.
When I was on the first stage when I entered the m110.pit file along with the PDA file. The PDA file had a movinand.mst file, while flashing with odin3 it got stuck on the movinand.mst part and remained stuck forever so I plugged out and restarted in download mode.
I did some googling and found out that this problem is related to internal memory damage or corruption or something like that.
Anyway I finally found out a GB file on some forum I don't remember and flashed it over my galaxy S and it kind of worked. When the phone is powered on it goes to the 'samsung anycall' screen and stays there for a while and at the bottom of the screen comes a progress bar, when it goes full the bootanimation comes up and the phone boots into the ROM. Now the problem is there is no internal memory so no apps are downloaded plus whenever I restart the phone it comes to that samsung anycall screen with the progress bar and then the bootanimation but the phone starts as if it were new, like the initial setup accounts and all and also reverted back to korean language. Is there anyway to fix the internal memory problem or any alternative?
Thanks once again for helping me out this much.

Can you tell me what actually is written under your battery ? as what you are indicating about this units behavior is rather strange and have not come across this on an M110S, and mind you I have help a lot of people to solve their problems on M110S units and tens of thousands had downloaded the repair kit from my upload site. Why I am asking is because I am in doubt as to what is your model? is it an M110S, or i9000 variation or a chinese clone?
this must be cleared , in order to get your phone functioning as remedies for it will vary
Hey. Now I tried flashing with odin3 and here's what happened:
1. After the first stage it should boot into eclair but instead samsung anycall screen comes up and then it goes into recovery with the following output:
E: can't mount /dev/block/st111 (invalid Argument)
# MANUAL MODE #
E: can't mount /dev/block/st111 (invalid Argument)
E: can't mount /dev/block/st111 (invalid Argument)
ok this means you have a cache partition problem , meaning stl11 is the cache partition that is not mounting as such you cannot boot, so lets try this ( remove external SD card, sim card etc and Flash the cache.rfs as below..flash it twice and let me know the result.
Problem:- Getting this when you boot
E:format_volume: rfs format failed on /dev/block/stl11
Solution:- Flash a cache.rfs file meant for your model as PDA with Odin. For i9000 i9000 cache.rfs file, For M110S M110s Cache.rfs
or Flash a Rescue Kit from My Android Collections

2. I proceeded to the next two stages and flashed the files but still the same.
well, when you get a problem like above, there is no way it can boot until it is resolved, but its has booted into recovery, that is what it should do, not go into download mode.
3. When I press the power button only it goes to the samsung anycall screen and then same happens what i described in 1.
Suggest you flash the cache.rfs for M110S, see if it solves it, If not repeat stage 1 again using the repair kit with the PIT and repartition TICKED using Odin3 see what happens.

The back of my phone behind the battery reads:
MODELO: GT-i9000
FCC ID: A3LGTI9000
SSN: I9000T GSMH
I think its a M110S.
The cache problem is over. I told that in my previous post.
Okay I've figured out the problem with my phone.
When I was on the first stage when I entered the m110.pit file along with the PDA file. The PDA file had a movinand.mst file, while flashing with odin3 it got stuck on the movinand.mst part and remained stuck forever so I plugged out and restarted in download mode.
I did some googling and found out that this problem is related to internal memory damage or corruption or something like that.
Anyway I finally found out a GB file on some forum I don't remember and flashed it over my galaxy S and it kind of worked. When the phone is powered on it goes to the 'samsung anycall' screen and stays there for a while and at the bottom of the screen comes a progress bar, when it goes full the bootanimation comes up and the phone boots into the ROM. Now the problem is there is no internal memory so no apps are downloaded plus whenever I restart the phone it comes to that samsung anycall screen with the progress bar and then the bootanimation but the phone starts as if it were new, like the initial setup accounts and all and also reverted back to korean language. Is there anyway to fix the internal memory problem or any alternative?

The scam artists who have converted M110S to i9000 use I9000GSMH and will not indicate the FCC or SSN
yours says its an i9000T and there is such a model, look http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S/GT-I9000T
so best to check your IMEI number , follow this link to identify your model
anyway so long as your phone works its not a serious problem, but wrong ROMs can give you differing problems so ensure your unit is M110S before using solutions in PIT STOP

The IMEI site says my IP is blocked. I tried proxying but still doesn't give me the result.
What about the internal memory problem? And sd-card not reading!!
How do I solve that?

ok, the ROM you had flashed is obsolete, you nee to flash WF07 ( download link in PIT STOP) but before you do that, go into settings>storage and erase SD card, and Format where possible also you must follow the instruction given in flashing guide ( First post concerning repair kit) to the dot, meaning you need to factory reset (settings >privacy) as well as wipe everything and format everything prior to flashing WF07 and also wipe again after flashing.
Only after this you should look at other problems ( Internal SD card)
Its also best to USE the repair kit again and after flashing Ist stage , flash the WF07 ROM ( its the best ROM for the M110S)

Problem with my s3 mini GT-I8190 reboot every 20 or 30 seconds

I write here to help me solve a problem with the mini s3 after turning not spend 30 seconds when powered down or rebooted ...
I did full wipes and reset from recovery and nothing .. I did the * 2767 * 3588 # either .. by odin I did a wipeI8190.md5 and nothing .. the cel turns back on as your last finished reboot .. in fact if I make a modification before they shut down or restart the phone back and not assumes the change .. and the USB debugging is not activated
I wonder if anyone happened to this and can help me.. the warranty is lost
thanks

First thing is to see if stock firmware in odin can help.

if you see in the last part of the second video i did the factory reset and the phone restart without nothing happend

i think you should flash TWRP or clockworkmod, make a backup of your files also the present rom,
After that, flash with a new rom like Cyanogenmod 10.2 from Maclaw and revert with the difference, maybe the problem will be fixed..

img183.imagevenue.com/img.php?image=96227_20131210_231941_122_127lo.jpg
i think the problem that the phone no assumes anything with flashing is because is before hes broke or whatever happend to this F%$& is the USB debugging is not marked.. but i dont really now :S

try first flashing TWRP recovery.. can really help.. !

you can do it with your android recovery, mount you internal or external sdcard with android recovery, download TWRP with zip format. and flash it within your android recovery with install.zip.
You can search on Youtube for tutorials.

thanks for trying to help.. :good:

Hey Brother,
Very Welcome, yes i've seen the videos, try to mount the internal sdcard with android recovery and copy the twrp recovery, or use another phone and copy the twrp file onto external SD Card, there's an option on recovery called update.zip flash with it,
if there's no change at all, try to flash it with ODIN.. if it don't recognize due to absence of USB Debugging, there's a tool called Samsung GS3 Mini ToolKit. maybe can help you. if not try with samsung KIES .. if also nothing helped you at this point, search around the internet for your problem, maybe you can find some useful help..
Cordially, I.R.

actually its really simple to solve this problem...
1 - download and install the samsung drivers from here (http://get.maclaw.pl/?id=61)
2 - download odin here and install it.
3 - reboot your pc (this is the easy way to kill all kies processes and unwanted things) and make shure that kies dont start with windows.(if you have it installed)
4 - download this http://get.maclaw.pl/?id=301 (its the maclaw cm 4.4.2 for odin with the recovery twrp)
5 - flash the phone with odin(FOR THIS YOU NEED TO BOOT THE PHONE IN DOWNLOAD MODE, just boot the phone pressing POWER+VOLUME DOWN AND THE HOME BUTTON until a triangle and a warning appears follow maclaws guide -> http://maclaw.pl/installation-guide-golden/)... as soon as the flash finishes you'll be trapped in a boot loop (missing GAPPS)
just try to boot it the system should crash dont worry you're on the good way.
5.2 - remove the battery and put it back in (now you phone should be off)
6 - reboot on the new recovery that comes with the maclaw Rom you've just flashed for that you need to press POWER + VOLUME UP AND HOME BUTTON and mount you SD CARD.(you phone sould appear on you pc as a storage device or something like that)
7 - download this GAPPS here(http://get.maclaw.pl/?id=164)
8 - copy the downloaded GAPPS to you phone.
9 - go back to the 1st menu of the TWRP (a.k.a recovery) and you should see a thing saying install zip or flash zip (something like that)
9.2 - select the Gapps you've downloaded and flash it.
9.3 - after the flash finish select reboot system
9.4 - phone should start installing updates after the reboot
10 - wait until it finishes and the problem should be solved. now you can go back to the stock rom or stay with this rom.
the problem here is there's an app causing that problem. i had the same problem a few months ago.
the phone whould just crash or not function at all, rebooting all the time or from time to time...(it was one of the games i've installed from market)
after the phone is working dont install apps from unknow developers. even if it is from the market (believe wen i say you can get apps from the market that makes you're phone to malfunction).
