Thing is when you turn on the tab it lags so hard. But then when you let it go on it resumes to be speedy. I hate to admit it that despite how fast jellybean is, samsung tucked us over.

My Tab began to boot, out of nowhere... While I was sitting next to it on my computer... :sly:

tried to get it in download mode, i saw some red error messages, usb write faild was suddenly was the result for tying to flash a stock rom...:(

what can i do? wait for the tab to drain completly and try again flashing with odin?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misledz:
Just as long as you can get it to download mode just flash the rom again. It's a failed attempt

Ok, mine is something weird ANY HELP WOULD REALLY BE APPRECIATED.

My GT-P7500 won't boot up at all :( It will stay on the boot logo. I can only access download mode. I've tried Flashing various gt-p7500 stock firmwares from 'samfirmware' via ODIN. by various i mean A LOT! like ICS stock, HC Stock, of dif regions..

I am not even able to access recovery, as soon as i select recovery from fastboot the screen goes black till infinity!

Anybody else having this kind of problem?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gl3nng:
I found a fastest way to get to download mode with my soft brick tab. Just today was able to flash stock firmware using the combo. Done it like 4 times and I think i have learned the pattern.

You have to have APX driver installed.

1. When you plug in your tab you will see the APX device connected icon.

2. Pressing POWER button and count to 9 which will reset the APX device connection. Continue pressing the POWER button and press Down volume.

3. When the APX device is not connected count to 2 and instantly release the POWER button.

Hope it works for you, because works every time for me. I tried flashing back to stock ROM but when I turn off my device and boot it up,

it wont boot up. Doing the same combo every time I power up my device.

Hope there is a FIX..

Im back to stock honeycomb.

broken Samsung SCH-i905 Verizon 4g TLE

hello guys , I have an annoying problem, hope I can fine somebody who can help .

I got Samsung SCH-i905 from Verizon but I wanted to use it without sim activation, while I was installing a new rom "for 7500", it stucked. since that the I can't switch on the tablet. if I put the charger , no indication , if I connect it to PC , nothing..

is there anyway to restore the flash? or what shall I do? now I have an expensive stone :(((((((((((((((((((((((99
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ecastanyos:
Could anyone help me?

Hello, first of all sorry for my English, it's not my language.

I have a problem with my tablet (GT-P7500), I was using CM10.1/SGT7 for P4 ROM. I used that rom for a several weeks, and I love it, but suddenly I can't start the tablet, there is a loop and I only can see for a seconds the logo of CWM and then restart again.

I've gone to recovery, and I put another time the rom after the wipes, but the problem is the same.

Finally I've enter in Download mode and with Odin I've put a samsung official rom stock. The sequence with Odin was correct, but when it is restarting....it's stop in the Samsung Logo, and I cannot open the tablet, even I can not close it until I plug the charger and I can see the battery.

Someone have any idea what else I can do? :crying:

Thank you very much

Edit: Finally I solved! :) I put by Odin the recovery and root again and it starts.

Thanks

Does this method work for hard bricked tablets? For example an unsuccessful bootloader flash?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k1mu:
If you can't start it in downloader mode, you're stuck since ODIN won't connect. Since your bootloader is probably locked, you can't re-flash it.

(I assume you've tried to use nvflash to recover.)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bucketachicken:
Out of curiosity, for someone in a similar situation, how would I go about using nvflash to recover? My bootloader is unlocked, but my tab froze mid rom flash due to a bad recovery (several months back), and won't boot into anything other than a minimal nvflash screen (I posted earlier in this thread a couple times with details).
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k1mu:
Directions for using nvflash are here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1130574

However, there's no "minimal nvflash screen" - if it's in APX mode, the screen is completely dark. I don't know what mode you're in.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bucketachicken:
Well what I mean is that my tab, in APX mode, will show this message:

Enter NvFlash recovery mode / Nv3p Server

and that's it. (this is after running the "nvflash --bl bootloader.bin --go" command)

Any ideas? At this point I tried a bunch of commands I found everywhere (my posts are in this thread from months ago, I wanna say last September/October), and nothing ever does anything. So I have no clue...

-------edit--------

Oh, and the majority of the time, this is what happens:

c:\nvflash>nvflash --bl bootloader.bin --go

I remember I had found a bunch of other bootloader.bin files from various places and tried them, I had one that I'm gonna try again to find that would always be "successful" but of course that just got me to the point mentioned earlier, where the tab shows "NvFlash recovery mode" and I can't do anything else anyway, so I'm stuck.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bentprop:
I have a P7510 Galaxy Tab that bricked on me. It was running fine then I plugged it in to charge for a while, when I picked it up it would not wake/boot. I have tried all the ways to restart it (long push, push power while touching screen, trying to boot to recovery or download, etc) to no avail.

I am trying to do the procedure listed at the top of this thread but I can't seem to get the battery to fully discharge. I have let it sit for several (4-5) days with the power button taped down but when I connect it to my computer it still shows the "NVIDIA USB Boot-recovery driver for Mobile devices" entry in the device manager. The entry cycles on and off as the power button is held down.

I don't Know what else I can do to drain the battery. It seems that my only other choice may be to try to crack the case and physically disconnect the battery.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k1mu:
Ah, OK. Now I understand. So, you've got an unlocked bootloader at least. It's at least getting to the point where you've downloaded the nvidia bootloader, and it appears to be running. What happens when you try the "nvflash --resume --download 8 recovery-cwm_4.0.0.4-sam-tab-10.1.img" to push a new recovery when the "Enter NvFlash recovery mode" message shows up?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bucketachicken:
Ok, from the screen showing "NvFlash Recovery Mode" I ran that command (and I tried this a few times, same result) and it does this:

c:\nvflash>nvflash --resume --download 8 recovery-cwm_4.0.0.4-sam-tab-10.1.img
Nvflash started
[resume mode]

...and just sits there. Perhaps I need another command first? I'm not really sure what to do. I've also tried various bct/config commands I've found online with equally unproductive results, but I am not familiar at all with nvflash so I'm basically blindly trying commands. Any help is much appreciated!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k1mu:
Well, you're farther along then I ever got with nvflash since my was bootloader locked.

You're doing the right thing. First download the miniboot code, then use '--resume" to write the recovery. Perhaps you need to let it sit for a while before the flash completes? I have no idea how long that takes, but certainly 10-15 minutes should be more than adequate.

Other than that, I'd search the forums for that "--resume --download" command and PM a few people who say they managed to use it.

For nvflash info, see the following:

http://http.download.nvidia.com/tegra-public-appnotes/flashing-tools.html

http://lg-v905r.wikidot.com/nvflash-help

As an alternative, you might just try one command:

nvflash.exe --bl bootloader.bin --download 8 recovery-cwm_4.0.0.4-sam-tab-10.1.img

That's found here: http://www.slatedroid.com/topic/171...-using-either-11-or-12-based-images-g-tablet/

Good luck!

Am I perma bricked?

I think I killed my Tab for good...but maybe you guys know a secret I dont know.

I flashed an old recovery using ODIN...it went fine. CMW 4.0 or something.

I tried to flash CM10.1 to no luck due to Status 7 error.

So I flashed the PA ROM 4.2.2 that is popular in this section. It worked for a day and then didnt want to reboot.

I then read that I have an old CMW so I reflashed the lastest one in the CM10.1 thread using Odin. CMW 6.0.3 or so. Odin gave me a pass.

Since it rebooted it then froze and said there were corrupt files.

Since then it would not reboot at all.

I have drained the battery as per this thread and when I plugin I get no battery screen or any sort of response from the unit.

It does charge however because after 30min I can see it doing the USB/apx thing when I try it in the PC again.

Any ideas or is it dead?

A question:

I use a rubber band for pressing the power button, did this the last week, but the tablet still keeps coming up in the device manager.

Question:

Do I have to leave the tablet connected to the PC or not?

Is the tablet charging while connected to a PC and continuously entering and exiting nvflash mode?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djmatt604:
On a stock kernel I believe usb charging is disabled...if a custom one it's likely that feature is active. Perhaps that explains why the battery isn't draining the way you expect it to...

Targus

Thanks for the info. as the cover is available for $5 + shipping in Amazon thought of trying. Any how, now dropped the idea.
[Dell Streak 7] stbuckley:
Yes, I have one of these for my Streak 7. The only issue is that the left upper clip covers the power button, meaning you have to unclip to hit the button. I just stopped using that corner clip, as the bottom and top right are fine. Also, you have to remove the Streak to recharge, although I suppose a little work with an Xacto knife could solve that.

Overall, works well, and nice quality. I got mine at Staples for $14.

Huge problem! I have tried all the 2.3.5 ROM's in here and still, after a few calls, there is a delay of 5-15 seconds from when the call starts to when the sides can talk to each other.

If I call, they answer but then they hear silense

I they call me, I hear nothing for 10 seconds and then sometimes I get an error (THE PROCESS COM.ANDROID.PHONE HAS STOPPED UNEXPECTEDLY)

tried different radios, current: 20.28I.30.085AU_3805.06.02.03_M

I have turned all the BACKGROUND DATA and AUTO SYNC off, I have run the FIX PERMITIONS in Rom Manager... same thing

The only roms it works on are the 2.2.3 barebone ones, with sense 2.1

I wouldn't mind that but the have no Middle East languages support so if I get an SMS with a number and HEBREW or ARABIC letters in them, the number is backwards.

PLEASE HELP!! there are some great ROMS in here but I can't use them!!!!! AAAAAAA

I didn't notice your post first time round, but am not sure what to suggest. A little more information might have been useful - such as hboot version, how you got root etc.

Try wiping absolutely everything, burn one of the good, recommended ROMs and try again before installing any additional programs or whatever. If you still get issues then please come back and let us know. It may be that you have a genuine problem with your phone.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] the_alien:
Hi all,

this is the 3rd time this is happening to me with different ROMs. The problem is:

The phone boots up normal, I can swipe to unlock, enter my PIN, but after pressing OK it won't unlock the SIM. If I lock the screen it won't come back on. It stays black whatever I do. After some time the phone reboots (soft reboot) and everything starts from the beginning.

The first time this happened I was using Modacos Ir9. I had the phone switched off over night and switched it on. Only thing that seemed to help was completely unrooting the phone and rerooting it again.

The second time I was using codeworkx CM9 Builds and tried to update. I restored my nandroid, but it kept happening. Flashing the XXKK1 Radio did the trick here.

Now it is happening again. This time I installed dropbox and the phone froze on the setup wizard...

I don't want to unroot the phone, it takes forever to restore the SD card.

Any advice on this one?

Update:

- Flashed the following radio images without any success: XXKL1, KRKL1, UGKL1 and XXKK1

- Used my older nandroids from CM9 and Modaco Ir10. NOT WORKING

- Wiped every nandroid. NOT WORKING AT ALL

- Reflashed CM9 and Ir10. Still NOT WORKING

I'm so lost I'm going to revert to stock and unroot... and try how far I can throw an 1 month old GNx from the fourth story.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] C-4Nati:
I don't know much on the development part so I don't know why its doing that I can only suggest using odin and going back to stock.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Diger36:
I had similar problems with mine once. Only thing that helped me out wasn't unrooting though. A complete factory reset was enough to make me go on again.

I posted a thread here then to ask people if anyone experianced the same but got no reaction what so ever zo I guess "we" are a dark minority.

I don't know what it caused it or what the solution might be but a Factory reset did it for me.

Good Luck!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] the_alien:
Last time it was working again after reverting to stock. But I bought it to use Custom Roms :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sonikot:
I would say go back to stock w/ odin, Wipe everything and start again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] the_alien:
Factory Reset wasn't helping unfortunatly.

Flashed the original factory image through fastboot. Now everything is working again. I'm restoring my SD backup now and will try to get CM9 working again.

If it would keep failing in stock I could return the phone. Now I'm left with "hopefully it isn't happening a fourth time" and "My phone doesn't work I need 4 hours to get ich working"
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
Fastboot flash stock google images. And your phone isn't bricked. Stop using the term wrong. It's most likely a software issue or you're doing the rom flash procedure incorrectly.

A bricked phone is a phone that is unaw to go into bootloader and recovery mode and cannot start android.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] the_alien:
Sorry for using the term wrong, I thought it just referes to broken phones.

The ROM flash is correct and it runs for some time and the problem occours after a few days... the only thing that helped was reverting to factory images and after that restore the nandroid from the "broken" Rom.

So the Rom works... than keeps crashing, I do a nandroid backup and only a factory image stops the crashes. But the Rom keeps working after I restore it.

I can't see why this could be a hardware issue. And I can't see how I should explain it to the store "Yes, it is working but not with custom roms, and I bought the Nexus because of custom roms..."
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshnichols189:
I'm willing to bet an app is causing it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Potterified:
One of my colleagues had this issue with an early CM9 build on his Nexus S - turned out it was an app that is incompatible with ICS. Every time it tried to launch a notification, poof. So I would have to side with Josh in the post above mine.

A way for you to verify / discredit this theory would be : When you say it works with the stock ROM, are you re-installing everything you have when you are on stock? My understanding from what you've written above is that you're only getting your full suite of apps back when you restore your (presumably custom ROM) nandroid backup...
