[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shawndh:
Now the tablet is fully charged but it still gets stuck on the splash screen when trying to boot up. Still have no recovery. Also, I'm not able to find a PIT file to re-partition. Can someone tell me how to get the stock recovery back at least? I've been looking but I can't find a file to flash for the recovery.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DermagraFX:
Same problem

Hi, I have the same issue basically. I have the Galaxy Tab SGH i957D 8.9 (TELUS) and flashed it to root last night, now I have the same problem. Except I have CWM installed, I was able to install that AFTER I locked it up. Help from one of the GURUs here would be great. It's obviously a problem caused by flashing it.

So try flashing with CWM, at least you'll have a good recovery on it. If we work together, we may be able to come up with a solution for our dilemma. I don't believe it;s a major problem, I had the same issue with my captivate phone when trying to CWM and Cyanogenmod, and I got it working perfectly, so there is hope.

I have tried the stock rom, rooted rom, and a couple of others, but still can;t get past the splash screens. Left it overnight trying to boot, and all it did was kill the battery. I can;t even turn it off, it just reboots every time I try shutting down. I CAN get to download and recovery mode though, and flash it all I want with Odin 3.7 and 1.83, just never boots past the splash screens.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shawndh:
Thanx for the reply. As you can see, I've been around these forums for a long time and usually I'm able to work it out but this one has got me stumped. Just wanted to ask you if you have tried to flash a custom ROM in Clockwork? Also, did you go through unlocking the boot loader befor you flashed it? I did not because I received the tablet in this condition. I tried to flash clockwork mod but I get an "invalid file" error in Odin. Once I flashed the stock recovery and it worked fine. But after reflashing the stock rom, the stock recovery is gone now. Do you have a link to the files you used? I'm thinking that the stock recovery is messed up but I can only find that one file.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DermagraFX:
no I haven't tried flashing through CWM, as I wasn't trying to flash originally, I was just rooting and going easy on it, then it wouldn't boot, so I wasn't prepared and now can't add files to my SD drive.

I didn't unlock the boot, as none of the instructions I read mentioned it (rooting was all I was trying to do).

I don't even have a stock recovery either, all I have is CWM and TWRP.

I'm going to try mounting it in Linux and see if that makes any difference to put roms on my SD drive, as windows doesn't like it anymore, except through Odin, where luckily it seems to work fine... For now.. lol
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DermagraFX:
Fixed!!!

ok.. I have mine fixed and running again.

http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=SGH-I957D

-Download correct stock image for your tablet.

-Unpack the file you downloaded

-Put your device in DOWNLOAD mode

-Connect it to Computer

-Start ODIN and wait for the COMM status to show as connected

-In PDA box navigate to your file and add it to the box.

-Press start

-Sit back and relax.

-Enjoy the fireworks as your tablet comes back to life..

-YEAH!!!

Life is good again...

I'm glad you got the right firmware and fixed your tab! But this site does not list a firmware for the SCH–i905 anywhere. Unless the Verizon Galaxy tab has an alternate model# there is no firmware on the site for my device. Oh well, at least one of us got tablets fixed. Congrats!

Download mode issue.

What recommendations do you guys have for a tablet that will not recognize in download mode?

I accidently flashed a bootloader and had auto reboot on - couldnt flash kernel and modem in time.

My tablet fully boots up, (rom manager says cwm is installed) as well as when i boot into recovery its completely black.

My main concern is that download mode is not recognized. it was previously working prior to installing the bootloader.

What can i do to fix this issue?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DermagraFX:
Can you start by giving as much info as possible about your tab, make model# etc.

can you actually get into download mode? Power button and Volume down button till it boots then release pwr.

you may have bad drivers on your pc. I had this problem with my phone when I installed CM.

get into DL mode and then start Odin and hopefully you will see the Com port attached.

then in PDA load the stock rom for your tab.

hopefully at this point youll be all set.

if your tab is fully functional, then try just flashing CWM or TWPR to your tab. I found with mine that CWM works best. I like TWP better for looks and the touchscreen functionality, but I found it gets a bit flaky after a few flashes, where CWM seems more stable.

SHAWNDH...

give me all your info for your tab, make, model.. carrier etc. as much as you can, and I will see if I can find any stock roms while doing my searches. 2 sets of eyes are better than one...

;)

So i have a sch-i905, 4.0.4 - I CAN boot into normal android

I flashed a bootloader last night and had auto reboot ticked. was not able to install the modem or the kernel.

I can get into download mode without any issues,but now download mode says "waiting for cable" and is not recognized by pc as it once was prior to the flash.

I can also get into recovery but its completely black ( assuming due to no kernel flashed )

I can get into android normally, but cant fix firmware through download mode, and recovery.

Please help :X

side note: rom manager says twmp and cwm is installed, though i get no display in recovery only blackness

if i can get download mode to work again or get cwm to show up i can fix it, but dont know where to go from here.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eushaun99:
I don't get it. First, you can't flash a kernel using Odin. Second, your tab won't even be able to boot without the kernel.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DermagraFX:
If you can get into DL mode, then its probably just an issue of drivers on your pc. Download the samsung drivers and reinstall.

Then put your tab in dl mode. Then connect to the pc with cable, try a different usb port than before.

Then start odin, if you get the Com port showing up in the status box, then flash CWM recovery to the tab. Then start over with what you are trying to do. But I can almost garantee its an issue with drivers on your pc. I had the exact same problem with my phone when I did it,

and fixing drivers was the issue. I wss stumped for a long time on that issue. If that doesnt work, look into Heimdall flash utility or Kies and go from there.

Hope this helps. Or at least gets you on the right track.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] younggunner:
update

dont think its a driver issue.

it was working fine in download mode prior to me flashing a bootloader.bin, and yes you can flash a kernel.bin through odin, as well as a modem.bin.

I was in the process of installing cwm this way when it happened.

I can get into the os, i can get adb working fine, recovery is just a black screen though it goes into it. and i can get into download mode still, just stuck at "waiting for cable" no interaction with device manager

---------- Post added at 12:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:22 AM ----------

Ive tried another pc as well. I dont believe its a driver issue as there is 0 interaction in download mode with device manager. but prior it easily was detected in odin no issues.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DermagraFX:
Ok... Im getting confused here... You Can still flash with Odin? Then you can install a new recovery on it. If device manager on the pc is not working, then you probably have a corrupt install, or the wrong rom file for your particular tab, and the usb drivers arent correct for your tablet.

Personally, I would start by downloading a stock rom file and return the tab to factory before starting anything, so you have it working as it should before continuing further.

If you DO HAVE a stock rom, maybe you could pass it along, i believe shawndh who started this thread is in need of one for the same tablet.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] younggunner:
confusion fixed

I cannot currently get download mode to recognize anything. just keeps saying "waiting for cable" thats why i cant do anything in download mode. It was currently working prior to flashing the bootloader through odin with the "auto reboot" accidentally clicked.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DermagraFX:
Oh... Well then it is beyond the scope of any problem I have encountered, or seen a solution to. I thought you could still connect in download mode.

Can you change usb debugging mode in tablet settings, that may enable you to connect? If not I dont think I personally can help, as your posts read like you could still use Odin.

On my phone, (galaxy S) nothing would connect after I messed up, but could do things with Heimdalls utility. See if you can connect with that. Worth a try, it does the same as Odin, but connects differently somehow.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] younggunner:
i even went as far as getting a brand new cable to see if it was my cable still same thing. No response in download mode for either pc's ive tried.

little stumped....

possible clues: when tablet boots up, it boots up to a bright black screen, only once it completely boots up am i able to see my display properly.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shawndh:
Thanx for the reply. I have the SCH-i905 32gb Galaxy 10.1 tab. The carrier is Verizon. I've spent days looking for another download source but I can only find one - there's a link from this site. Others have posted that it did restore their devices so I'm thinking that there are some bad clusters that need to be quarantined but I can't even find a tool for the Galaxy Tab that will do or check for that. I'd appreciate it if you could take a look though. Thanx.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shawndh:
Are you connecting to a USB port that is on the motherboard of your computer? Mine will only recognize my tablet with one port. The other ports are not recognized at all by ODIN.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DermagraFX:
I don't think its a cluster issue, just a bad flash previously. But you'll see from the link, yours is also known as the P4vzw. Well check the link and make sure that's your tab that I found. Then have a look at ALL the files for that tab.

Have you seen/tried this one... here's the thread STOCK ROM FOR YOUR TAB...

xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1342995

Here's just the file.

http://goo.gl/XPMXv

Try flashing CWM recovery to your tab, and try a file from cyanogenmod

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/P4vzw_Info

Or just try the CM ROM first maybe and see what happens. I don't remember what you have for recovery. There are a bunch on there, but all nightly that I saw, but even that would be better than nothing for now if it works.

I'm still looking, but I know what you're saying about few and far between. I think they all are for the tabs. Let you know if I find anything else.

Once rooted people generally install a custom recovery onto there note 2 so they can take a full system backup called a nandroid. If something you then do to your note causes it todo something odd or not boot etc then this nandroid will save it by restoring the backed up rom.. I also notice that the font you were trying to install looks like its from a sony xperia device?

ok when my note 2 works i'll make a nandroid backup and about the font i noticed that it is for sony xperia after i did it so i was kinda late

and if I flash a rom from odin will it work (i know how to do this from rooting it)?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bearusa:
As its not booting and you have no nandroid your only option left is odin. Once its sorted I strongly suggest you install a recovery so any future mods you try that go wrong like this one can easily be restored by a nandroid.. you also need to make sure you use a stock rom for your specific device..

You have to install a custom recovery. Once installed you hold vol + home and power it will then boot into recovery mode. There will be a list of actions to perform. I recommend you always backup to external sd card aswell. Installing a recovery is usually the first thing to do once rooted.

Edit: what model note do you have.

I will point you in the right direction for odin recovery install.

This will not erase any data from your device..

Once installed you need to boot to recovery mode

Hold vol+ home and power release the buttons when samsung galaxy note2 screen appears..

You will be in recovery mode.

To complete a nandroid go to

backup & restore

Backup to external

Scroll to yes

Wait for it to complete. (It can take awhile its backing up over

Voila you will now have a copy of your current rom.

To restore

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Ph33zy:
First off, let me start out by saying that while I'm not new to Android (had the EVO, EVO LTE, and now One for Sprint), I am new to Android tablets and the Nexus experience. My son recently cracked my wife's iPad and I decided to replace it with the new Nexus 7. It will be primarily used by her (for productivity at work) and my 2 year old son (Netflix, Youtube).

If I root my device and install a custom recovery, would I not be able to receive OTA updates just like I can't on my HTC phones? I've never owned a Nexus so I'm wondering it the stock recovery would need to be intact just as its required on my HTC phones.

Are there any advantages to rooting a tablet? I always root my phone primarily to remove bloatware, get wifi-tether and block ads, but since this is a WiFi only tablet and a Nexus device, I'm assuming there's no real bloat on the device. I guess something I can think of that will be useful would be OTG (but my wife will probably never use that now that she uses drop box).

Thanks for any inputs!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] AgentCherryColla:
Simple answer. Yes, and put CyanogenMod on it.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] salamt:
The rule is if you don't know why to root, then don't.

You can unlock your bootloader first so that when you decide to root, you don't re-format your device.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] mi7chy:
Not yet. Keep it stock for a while to establish a baseline so when you have issues after it's rooted you'll have a better idea.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] tweaked:
Best answer ever.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Landara:
Absolutely not! The *only* valid reason to root is because you need to. If you ever get to that point, you will know it. Aside from slightly(slightly) better battery life, which may not even matter to you, there is no immediate overt advantage to it on a nexus tablet. Tiny things like AdAway and such are not missed by most users. And you will stop getting OTAs. Now there isn't a thing wrong with rooting, all my devices run custom ROMS cuz I like to fiddle with stuff, but even I truly do not need Root on my nexus. Just wait till you KNOW you need it, but go ahead and unlock the device so that you won't have to wipe it to root it later. Root doesn't force a wipe, but unlocking it does. Good luck!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] NyPlaya513:
to be honest, i root my phones for customizations and apps that require root along with tethering. I now own both the 1st and 2nd gen nexus 7 and have to say that I never felt the need to root the first and for my 12 hours having the 2nd I dont see that changing. My current device is the galaxy nexus so its not a nexus thing really, I just find the tablet nexus experience great. Keep in mind I do also have a 1st gen galaxy tab laying around which I rooted and run roms on.

This might be the first Android device I don't root. Who am I kidding, i probably will sooner or later. Just not yet.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Ph33zy:
Thanks everyone. I think I will unlock the bootloader and leave it stock for now.

With all my phones, there was always a reason to S-OFF and root to improve my user experience (I.e. sideload radios/firmware and tweak Sense), but I'll just enjoy the tablet until I get bored of it like everyone says....
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] teh roxxorz:
Well, that's the only reason you ever need to root. And if you have all the items needed, it literally takes a minute to root it.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] samdroids2a:
i dont think 4.3 needs root or a custom rom replacing it tbh:victory:
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] player911:
I disagree. Just leave it stock. You don't need root access. He said its a family tab. He doesn't need custom Roms. In fact that the last thing you want when you mix the wife and kids in the mix. Don't need the boy manually deleting every system file using root explorer.

Rooting is just unlocking the "admin" account so you can access system files.

Stock is fine. I would recommend unlocking and flashing a custom recovery just so you can start doing Nandroid backups. But don't root and just stay stock.

Custom Roms are great but my wife and kid don't need a few extra features to surf online or play a game.

Stay stock and live easy. If they lose interest or stop using it, then for personal use I'd say go all the way
