Same problem

I've had this exact same problem, been discharging for 3 days, nothing has happened as of yet.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] isimobile:
I had the exact same issue. It would froze on formatting /cache

Stuck in APX mode., "luckily" mine was unlocked. I tried to revive it for 4 days, no luck. I cleaned/created partitions etc. It would not go past formatting CAC(cache) partition.

I eventually made my partitions smaller just to be able to create the partitions. It worked and I had the tab booting again, well sort off only ODIN worked. Then I tried to repartition it with PIT, no luck. Got a weird NvPart error and it failed every time to repartition.

I have Googled all over the place and have not been able to revive the TAB. I took it in for repairs today.

For me it looked like some of my storage was "toast". I Even tried to raw write back but on Partition 8 (SOS/Recovery) it got stuck. As well as APP and CAC. It could write to partition 4 the bootloader, partition 5/6 and 9 (boot.img).

So if someone here can tell us what todo when you stuck in formatting in CWM, how would you go about getting it to work without pressing the power button. Any suggestion would help.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] podtalje:
I also have the same problem as described above which happened two days ago.

I installed the bootloader and CWR 6 from the p4 folder on the droidbasement.

After that I have through recovery installed three or four different ROMs without any problems.

When I finally wanted to load the CM9 rom for the last time and selected "clear data", the tab has frozen at "formatting cache ..".

I waited for a while and then pressed power button. It turned off and now I am also stuck in APX mode and unfortunatelly also

have locked bootloader.

Now I am waiting for battery to discharge, although based on the post above I doubt it will help. :(

Curious to those tabs that this ocurred on, did you have a faulty emmc chip?

Mmc_cap_erase shouldn't be invoked, but if it did, it may have been the cause. I've now taken this out, so next rls will have it.

Ota does not perform a wipe. You wouldn't have known unless you actually performed a wipe with that specific action of cap_erase via mmc.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] *child:
Oh I see. Anyway, I didn't have any problems with wiping as mine paused during the actual flashing at about 75% completion. It may have just been a bad download. I should have asked for the MD5.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] kallt_kaffe:
How would you know that?

I've done couple of full Odin flashes and maybe hundred or more Clockwork flashes, factory-resets etc. Even done a couple of factory-resets with stock recovery. Never had any problems until now. And the brick seems to be permanent asfaik. Mine was drained (I think) this morning but still no go. Going to tape the power button for another day but I do not think it will help. Also isimobiles tab couldn't even be rescued with nvflash so I think we can start to assume that it will turn out to be permanent for everyone. :(

I hope the mmc_cap_erase removal does the trick.

Sorry to hear about your tab being bricked KK. I have the Galaxy Note and knows the **** storm that the mmc_erase_cap created.

Here is a read from Chainfire and Entropy512 regarding the Mmc_cap_erase and mmc chips. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1693704

pershoot has Mmc_cap_erase removed from future releases but I still recommend installing the gotbrick.apk to see if your tab might be effected.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] Snorchblapp:
Thanks for the info! Identified my Tab as affected.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] grzwolf:
confused

Sorry, I`m confused. Please help.

Using cwm recovery 5.5.0.4 according to OP and installed nigthlies as they came out.

Then this forum brought up pershoot's cm-9-20120901-EXPERIMENTAL-p4.zip.

I interpreted this a somehow pre nightly and installed it same way as the usual nightlies with no problems. Although just wiped cache and dalvik.

Found latest nightly (Sept 4th), installed it as usual.

Would like to switch back to pershoot's experimental, became nervous reading the brick notes.

A) Should I have better used / better use cmwr 6.0.1.2 for pershoot's instead?

B) What is the relationship between nightlies described in OP and pershot's mods?

Thx in advance.

If you flash back the older 5.x recovery you should be ok, but do that via ODIN.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] blastik:
I flashed 5.8.3.1 but I get the rolling screen problem when I reboot into recovery

do you guys think is also safe/compatible to flash this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1733045 ?

looks like a pretty good alternative :)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] nakedninja42:
Not much that can be done on your side, but pershoot has removed Mmc_cap_erase from future releases, so you'll be safe. I am not sure if AAccount has removed this in his kernel. This is a problem from Samsung, I was expecting it to be resolved from future releases, but obviously they haven't done it yet.

Hi Kallt Kaffe. Nice seeing you again. Last time I read your posts it was for my Blade in Swedroid and modaco-forums! I understod that your tab bricked, sorry to hear. Hopefully it will be resolved by you or someone else...

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] blastik:

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] gokpog:
https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_device_samsung_p4

No need to flash. There is still nothing new in the sources so all get.cm nightly s will have no new kernel 3.1 functionality.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] jayceebee23:
I have flashed my tab many times over but this talk of bricking is making me anxious of flashing again. I have flashed pershoot's CM10 build up to 0816 build then had to revert to rooted stock ICS to use front facing cam for skype. Now I'm still on it but with an A1 1.6.4 kernel for GPU and CPU OC (400mhz and 1.6ghz, respectively). Thinking of flashing CM9 nightly but as I mentioned, all this talk of bricking makes me want to turn away from flashing.

What's my point to all of this? Just wondering if there is any way to build some safeguards to this kind of bricking when wiping and flashing? We all know about the mmc bug. So can cwm be modified to check first if this bug is present and there's a strong chance of bricking the device? Just asking.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] pershoot:
the nightlies at get.cm are safe.

ive already brought in safeguards to the 'new' stuff (not published yet).

if you are on 0901 CWM that was published last week on DB in the cm9 folder, get off of it. CWM in the CM10 folder on DB is safe.

So, the one he just told us to NOT use.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] gokpog:
No, he told us not to use cm9 0901 with the cm9 0901 recovery. To my understanding cm9 0901 with the cm10 0816 recovery should be fine.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] pershoot:
Just don't perform a factory reset within the ROM as a precautionary measure if using 0901 cm exp (although I think this may just send the command to recovery, ultimately, to do it).
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] Snorchblapp:
Gets confusing quick, doesnt it? :laugh:
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] jayceebee23:
Care to elaborate a little further for us who are being overly cautious. Does factory reset from ROM refers to the Factory Data Reset in the System Settings or a data wipe from CWM (or both)? What's the safest way to wipe for a clean install?

Thanks!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] pershoot:
do everything through recovery.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] fusionjack:
As far as I can understand from the galaxy s2 brick bug, the most important thing is to have a safe kernel that has MMC_CAP_ERASE disabled. The recovery self cannot perform format or wipe by itself. It needs to invoke a kernel function that do that operation (with/without MMC_CAP_ERASE).

The safe recovery that was talking about is maybe that the MMC_CAP_ERASE is not forwarded to the kernel. So you are still safe even you have the unsafe kernel.

One thing that needs to be aware is by flashing a whole rom. Sometimes it flashes also a kernel that replaces your current safe kernel. Doing wipe operation after that could be dangerous since the new kernel could be unsafe.

I could be wrong but that is my understanding about brick bug in galaxy s2.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] blastik:
yep in the earlist posts they were talking about this. thanks

im one of the device maintainers for this tab.

when i need stuff tested ill roll up my own builds (work in my github) prior to inclusion in to CM. the the builds from get.cm will have them after they are uploaded in to CM mainline.

update your bootloader to ics uk variant (its at DB from italian release) to sort rolling screen.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development] blastik:
anyone knows how to get it? i opened the tar file and i only found .img and .bin files... i only can flash tar files with odin as far i know.

btw. I also flashed the last cm9 nightly build (09/09) and the camera is not working. I think I'm moving to a stock rom. I love cm9 but ill leave it apart for the time being. too many errors

do you think I can wipe system and data safely?

deep sleep issue on cm9-20120901-experimental-p4

Using pershoot's latest 0901 experimental (on gt-p7501, of course now shown as gt-p7500,) since it came up with no problems for two weeks.

Last night I applied my normal "switch off" method: wlan off, flightode on, killed all tasks with es-task manger, then soft off.

Didn't install any new app prior.
