[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jodvova:
My Nexus 10 stopped working after I've transferred about 14gb of movies on it. I copied them in windows 8 when nexus was plugged in USB.

It doesn't boot pass Google logo now, doesn't even reach Nexus symbol.

I can boot device in a bootloader and load a recovery. I did wipe/factory reset and also cleaned the cache, but that didn't help to solve the problem.

I have a suspicion that a filesystem is corrupt and e2fsck needs to run and fix the problems but I don't know how to start it.

I'm running a stock 4.2.1 not rooted or unlocked.

The battery level is above 70 and devices has been charging from the wall for 2 hrs at least.

Can anyone advice something to resolve the problem?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fissurez:
well, you still have a warranty.

that'd be my best bet, since if you hack it and its' still broken, you *might* not have a warranty.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blueback22:
Did you try flashing a stock image off the forums?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxSHaDoWxSLaYeRxX:
Less than a month old too..
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thisiseric:
I would replace it. It would suck to tinker with it and find out you can't fix it and the warranty is void.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EniGmA1987:
Either get it replaced, or attempt to root it and flash a new ROM. I know you said wiping didnt help, but when you unlock it does a complete wipe of EVERYTHING so it might make a difference.

THe faster option to try is obviously rooting it, the safer option is probably just to get it RMA'd
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jodvova:
Guys, Thanks for replies and suggestions.

So what I tried to do in last few days was:

I downloaded official 4.2 stock Rom and tried to reflash it together with a bootloader. I used "fastboot" to erase all partitions first, then flashed a bootloader and then flashed Rom. I had to run "oem unlock" otherwise fastboot didn't want to perform an operation.

The tablet still doesn't work, it's stuck on Google logo on a boot stage, not even reaching nexus symbol.

I didn't try to root it and install a custom Rom, because I'm afraid that I with loose a warranty. I believe the procedure above does wipe everything possible on a filesystem so I didn't go for a custom Rom solution.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jodvova:
I don't see a possible solution to restore a device now so I will return it on a warranty.

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jodvova:
As I understand I need to be rooted with a custom recovery?

Can I run "adb" under a stock recovery?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EniGmA1987:
A custom ROM wouldnt help I dont think. The procedure you did is the important part before flashing a new ROM so if it didnt work then dont bother with anything custom.

ADB commands are run when you are booted into the tablet if I remember right.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blueback22:
Now that you've installed a stock ROM, go into recovery and factory reset. This may help your bootloop issue.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jodvova:
I did that couple of times, it didn't help.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jodvova:
Guys,

Looks like a partition table got screwed up, because when I run e2fsck on any of partitions (system, userdata, boot), it says: "attempt to read block from filesystem resulted in short read".

Does anyone know how to fix it?

Or where can I find Nexus 10 PIT file?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evolishesh:
Have you tried to go into stock recovery, and select the adb side load and try manually push the files like that?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jodvova:
Can you elaborate here?

Which files should I push? A Rom?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NeverAlwaysEver:
I am facing the same situation and it is not going past the nexus logo screen lol. I tried flashing factory images from here in fastboot mode but its still not working. In recovery, its showing can't mount SD card even after I tried mounting SD card and i tried wiping, factory reset and nothing. SD card still can't mount also and I wonder if that is the problem. I'm try some more.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NeverAlwaysEver:
So, I just fixed it and my nexus 10 boots up and all good again. Basically in bootloader, you just need to flash the userdata.img and cache.img also from the extracted files of the factory image file as I noticed it wasn't flashing those 2 files when I just flashed/updated the image.zip file with this command fastboot -w update image-mantaray-jop40c.zip and it was only flashing the system.img, recovery.img, boot.img so I extracted this image-mantaray-jop40c.zip file and I flashed the userdata.img and cache.img files manually and rebooted and its all good again back to stock.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jodvova:
Just to clarify did you use fastboot to flash userdata.img? Which command did you use "fastboot -w update userdata.img"?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jodvova:
Also where did you find userdata.img ???

It doesn't come in nexus 10 factory image. It only has boot, cache, recovery, system and a bootloader.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NeverAlwaysEver:
Download this mantaray-jop40c-factory-87340b80.tgz stock/factory firmware from here and extract it with 7-zip and you will get mantaray-jop40c-factory-87340b80.tar and extract that again with 7-zip and you will get 6 files in the folders. 2 important files in there are the bootloader image file and image-mantaray-jop40c.zip file. Now,extract that image-mantaray-jop40c.zip file and you will find userdata.img and cache.img, which you will need to manually flash with fastboot. Now, make sure you have all those bootloader, userdata, cache image and image-mantaray-jop40c.zip files in your ADB folder or any folder where you run your fastboot commands from bootloader.

Now, reboot your nexus 10 into bootloader mode and connect to your computer(I assume you have USB debugging on). From your computer command prompt, go to your ADB folder or folder/directory where you can execute fastboot commands to your tablet and enter these commands one after another.

fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-manta-mantalj12.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot -w update image-mantaray-jop40c.zip

fastboot flash userdata userdata.img

fastboot flash cache cache.img

fastboot reboot

And you should be good. Now, for you to run fastboot commands, I typed the exact filenames from the stock firmware package that I provided here for you to download.

---------- Post added at 10:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:31 PM ----------

You have to use - fastboot flash userdata userdata.img

fastboot update is for .zip files.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jodvova:
The image that you used (87340b80) is different from the official that is available on Google now (0d641789). That's why I didn't find userdata.img, it's not in the zip anymore.

Anyway, I've just tried your method step by step, it flashed everything ok, but the tablet doesn't boot, it's still bricked :(((
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jodvova:
I also tried to use adb sideload to transfer the image file, but every time adb was failing with "installation aborted" right after "verifying image".
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NeverAlwaysEver:
So did you find userdata.img in the stock firmware that I posted or you didn't find it? I just remembered your nexus10 is locked bootloader. Are you sure everything flashed okay with your locked bootloader because mine is unlocked.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jodvova:
Yes, I did find it and flashed it the way you've described.

My bootloader is locked, so to flash it I had to run "fastboot oem unlock" and then confirm unlock on the tablet.

It seems that it flashed everything fine as in a command line window I could see a progress and the was no word about errors.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NeverAlwaysEver:
In the picture you posted in post#22, the unlock lock symbol is missing from your booting Google scree or was that before you unlocked? do you want to try going into your stock recovery again and factory reset and then flash everything again? If it doesn't work, perhaps your internal storage died or got corrupted. If nothing works, I just see the option of getting a replacement.

---------- Post added at 10:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:26 AM ----------
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jodvova:
I never actually unlocked it using external tools.

So when I go to bootloader and try to flash via fastboot, it will tell me that a bootloader is locked and if I want to unlock it I need to run "fastboot oem unlock". I run this command and then flash the images and it seems to work fine.

As for trying it again, I did that combination many times and it never worked for me :(

I think the flash storage is corrupt so I'm about to send the tablet for a replacement.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NeverAlwaysEver:
Try this. Download this factory image from here, which is directly from Google. Extract the files with 7-zip again. Now, instead of flashing all the images manually via fastboot, just run the flash-all.bat file from Windows and of course your N10 needs to be in bootloader mode unlocked and connected to your Computer. If it doesn't boot yet after running flash-all.bat, go into your stock recovery(I assume you know how to go into stock recovery) and wipe factory/data reset and then reboot.Hope that will work.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jodvova:
So, just let everyone know I gave up trying to fix it and returned to Google for a replacement.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] freshlysqueezed:
Thanks for updating. It seems that the internal memory while very fast seems to be more easily corrupted than my previous devices.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jodvova:
Google's support asked me to do a factory reset via Android recovery menu, which I did but that hadn't helped to boot the tablet.

After that they just offered a replacement.

Really really sorry to bump this, but I was following NeverAlwaysEver's post from page 3 and used the file he provided (the one with the extra partitions data) -- I have a 32GB unit but now I'm only showing that I have a 16GB unit after using those files. Any chance you can reveal where you obtained the files originally so that I can get the 32GB ones? Or perhaps I overlooked something?

Sorry about this. I had to reformat my unit since I was having some major I/O speed issues. :\

Thanks in advance,

For one small moment i was worried that i bricked my wife brand new Nexus 10 tablet. Thank god that there is a community of people welling to help us no so technically savvy individuals. I follow the instructions to the T (copy pasted) and it worked wonderfully. Thank you for your help, i guess i am not sleeping in the dog house after all.:D
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NeverAlwaysEver:
Glad to be of help and that you won't have to sleep in the dog house lol. Also, another way to auto flash the files in that stock firmware folder, is by running the flash-all.bat file in that folder from windows while your tablet is connected to your computer and in bootloader mode. I posted the instruction just above and previous to your post :)
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Devildoc99:
All is as you have shown with one little bitty little problem. I cannot set usb debugging on account I cannot boot up the nexus on account of I do not have an operating system in it as yet (having done a silly wipe and format.....but we won't go there.). So, following your path, all is good until I'm loading the system file ( the .zip file ). There, it just hangs. I assume that's because of the usb debugging issue.... or what? Do you know of some other reason it hangs at flashing the system file. It pushed and flashed the other files prior without any issue.

Btw, thanks for your posting. It certainly helped, at least to a point further than I've managed so far.

Devildoc http://xdaforums.com/images/smilies/good.gif
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NeverAlwaysEver:
Hey, yeah I believe USB debugging needs to be on but then again, you mention that it pushed and flashed the other files so I'm not too sure. Try manually flashing all the files instead of running the .bat file from Windows.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Devildoc99:
I've finally got it solved. My problem was that I needed to do a reboot of bootloader after EACH operation. After I did that, I was able to successfully flash all files, one at a time as you suggested. Using the .bat file would defeat the ability to reboot after each file, as did the toolkit.

I initially did try to flash all the files separately, but didn't reboot the bootloader except for where you had indicated after initially flashing the bootloader image.

Anyway thanks very much for your interest in my problem and reply. You did tweak my brain enuf to enable me to remember the reboot thing and try it. I wonder if many others have encountered similar issues with no way to know what it is they were doing "wrong"

Whew! What a relief.

Have a great day

Hello,

Do you know is it there screen protector that covers the whole front part of the S3 (edge to edge ) with holes for home button speaker , etc ...

I was looking for such kind of protector but I only find these that cover only screen ...

Thank you beforehand !!!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] countryfolk07:
I've got a Skinomi. It's a wet apply. Covers the whole front. It's smooth. Very little orange peel. I love it. Only problem I potentially see with it is, if you don't have a car to protect the edges, it may peel up. Otherwise, very nice.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] 1slow4G:
I have the xtremeguard (similar to zagg) minimal orange peel but for 2 bux shipped, wont complaint. BTW i think wet set films are the only that cover fully. the self adhesive hard films wont because of the "Curve" that the screen has. They make the protectors short to prevent lifting and air bubbles.
