Fix?

I just signed up for the forum because I believe that I may have found a solution to this problem. Keep in mind, I am not a developer and if you choose to follow my advice you do so at your own risk. Here is what I found and what I did.

1. Go to Settings -> Application manager and swipe over to ALL.

2. Scroll down until you see Software update. In my case there were two of them. One of them is Version v6_1306_2_1 and the other was around Version 3 or so. If you notice the one that is Version v6, you have the option to "Force stop", but "Turn off" is grayed out. In the other version, "Turn off" is available.

What I did was "Force stop" then selected "Clear cache" on both of them. I also selected "Turn off" on the one that had that button available.

My device then shut off properly. When I turned it back on and went back to Settings -> Application manager -> All, I only had one instance of Software update running. My device has now turned off properly 5 times in a row.

I hope this helps everybody. Please post and spread the word if this works for you.

having the same issue

I am having the same problem. Contacted Samsung, they are aware of the problem, but no word on when or if there will be a fix coming.

I just tried this and so far all is good. Thanks for the info, I have been trying to find a fix for a month or so, Samsung has been no help.

Tried Everything

I tried a couple of things, like shutting down the software update that was running in addition to version 6,(see other thread), this worked for about an hour then the same problem came back. I have been in contact with Samsung several times, they say they are aware of the problem but did not have a fix

Nothing worked for my mom's tablet. Damn.

I disabled the eprint, disabled the update thingy, forced the shutdown keeping the button pressed. Nothing worked, damn this thing.

Also is slow as hell with 4.2.2.

As i dont usually browse this forums, has anyone a link on how to downgrade to 4.1 again? She was happy with it and just browses internet and play little games, she wont be using any 4.2.2 feature. Thanks

Why turn off your tab, got mine on release date, was rooted within 10mins and still running great running Cm 10.1 4.2.2 and can't ever remember shutting it down. I use it everyday for web, video, some games and I charge it every other day.

Talked to Samsung today regarding the same issue. They said they have a fix for it and should be available soon via software kies or software update.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ceapea:
I had a notification of an update yesterday. Downloaded it, applied it and the Tab rebooted.

When it came up, it said that there was an error with the application and I should try again, using Kies or take it to a Samsung repair center.

Kies won't work for me either. This sucks and this Tab is junk. Why in the H*** can't Android or Samsung fix their own problems???

What a waste of money!

Mine does the same thing. I have two of these and one is fine and the newer one will not update no matter how I try.

Got the fix from Samsung. Perform a factory reset and all will work. Tap Settings, Back Up and Reset, tap Factory data reset. Worked great for me and did not have to restore any programs. :laugh:

New kid on the block here. I also have the Galaxy GT-P5113 2 tab 10.1 . Have also had the shutdown problem. I have also tried all the so-called fixes as described on this forum to no avail. The most recent contacts with Samsung [12-22-13] included 6 different agents on live chat & one phone call. The live chats steered me everywhere with each one offering a different approach. The phone call was last & was told that they would get back to me. Guess they haven't figured it out yet..................
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phranco:
If this may be of interest: I spoke with a Samsung agent today [12-24-13] regarding the Android 4.2.2. firmware upgrade. He stated that the recent firmware has a bug & that Samsung is working on a fix that should be available in a couple of weeks. Perhaps available after the first of the year ........
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Trekeyus:
Im running 4.2.2 but I have not bothered to even try the 64 some odd meg update I figure why bother when it's obviously a borked roll out. Im still running build JDQ39.P311UECMH2 kernel 3.0.31-1251263 the build seems stable enough and I have not run into sny issues with it. Although I did disabled that hp printer pos app. An I do have two versions of software update but it's not fussing at me when I go to reboot etc.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shawndh:
Won't turn off

I too am on version 4.2.2 and my device will not turn off. I have another pending update but when I try to update it always fails. I even try to do the firmware update in kies and it still fails. I was trying to keep this tablet stock but I guess I'm going to have to root and find a decent firmware. What a piece of crap update!. Slow as molasses with 4.2.2 anyway.. I'll go back to a 4.1 build.

However I have found that you can shut it completely down if you have it plugged in. It may take a couple of attempts but it will shut down eventually.

[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] calvinwch:
I think i may have solve this problem, i have a friend with same problem on 4.2.2 and i look over it may found the problem that cause the unable to shutdown and can't update. I'm working on it now and seems i'm able to get the new update of p5113ueucmk3.

---------- Post added at 12:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:22 AM ----------

I got it, i'm able to run and finish the update and that fix the shutdown error :D

Here is what i may found out what happen, I'm not a programmer or hacker so any technical of the OS i will not know it. But I'm a tech for trouble shooting, so here is what i did.

1. when i try to reboot or run the update, it seem the system will keep Looping on restart only. this make me think that is the reason it can't run the update either on device or via Kies due to restart looping.

2. Due to the restart looping i was thinking; if it is only restart it never have chance get into system Odin mode.

3. After try to update via Kies and it only restart the device never go into the Odin mode, so i manually have the device boot to Odin mode (Must be after running update but device reboot it back to andriod os). Once you boot into Odin mode, you will see the android bot with downloading.

4. run the Kies update again with emergency recovery ( due to the Kies will freeze on the first update that never start) and it will download the p5113ueuckmk3 again (make sure your cable is connect to your PC already)

5. Once you start see the download to the device, your tab 2 will be ready to go.

I just finish update my friend device and i'm able to shut down without problem. :good:
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shawndh:
I fixed mine

It seems that some things will work for some people and not others. I too updated to 4.2.2 and was only able to shut down while it was plugged in (wall or computer) after 2 or 3 attempts. I was also having issues getting into download mode. Here's how I did it:

Plugged the tablet into the USB port on the computer and did several attempts to shut down. If the logo popped up again, I would continue to hold the power down until the screen went black.

Once the battery icon came up, I just waited about 30 sec. It's now off and ready to go to download mode.

After a minute or so, I unplugged the tablet, then pressed power + volume up (button closest to power button) simultaneously for a second or two.

I got a warning screen about installing custom firmware. Select vol up to continue and vol down to cancel. I continued.

Then you get into download mode (your device may have different options or go strait into download mode)

Once I finally got to this point, I got excited and started looking for CWM to flash. Below was the best option for me.

Got to this thread: Single step for Custom-Recovery and root! http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2535083

I downloaded the file for my device with CWM (GT-P5110_CWM-6.0.4.5-SuperSU-1.65-BusyBox-1.21.1_universal.tar.zip) I already had a version of ODIN so I used that.

Unzipped it to get the tar file.

Opened up ODIN and selected the tar file as the pda file.

Flashed it and rebooted the device.

After flashing it, it would now go into CWM recovery if I held down power + vol down instead of giving me the "no command" error. I got a warning the 1st time I entered CWM that the stock ROM might reflash stock recovery and asked me if i wanted to fix that . I sai yes, rebooted and was able to shut the device down properly 5 times in a row. The next day it started rebooting again when I try to shut it down.

I ended up flashing official CyanogenMod 10.2 ROM and that finally got rid of the problem. So I got rid of Samsung's crappy ROM all together and now its working just fine.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tmwy:
temp fix, works for me.

just hold on the power button and select restart, after it restarted, do not unlock the screen, hold the power button and select power off, this time it power off and stay off.
[General Questions and Answers] RobPitt:
How can I change the task manager that opens in MIUI when you hold down the home key? It only shows the last 4 applications which makes it nearly useless for me. The stock manager is better if there's a way to put it into MIUI.

As a workaround for now, I installed App Swipe!, but it's home button configuration didn't work so I configured it to start when you double-tap the home button using Advanced Home Button.

This works OK but my muscle memory is to long press the home key and I still use long press instead of double tap with frequency. Also, I preferred the stock task manager to App Swipe, though it's good enough and it maybe just because I'm not used to it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] itendswithyou:
so my carrier is metropcs and before deciding to root my phone i noticed that anything having to do with the tmobile variant works on the metropcs variant. i recently bricked my phone and lost all my data and even my recovery (forgot to move from storage to sd/computer) and i had to flash the tmobile stock. from there i flashed cyanogenmod 10.2 nightly and the appropriate gapp. now i noticed the under mobile networks ->access point names it lists by default a tmobile one(fast.tmobile.com). considering im from metro is this okay? and i noticed my signal bar now reads h and dc and i no longer get 4g or lte signal. i have tried 2 different metropcs apn's (fast.metropcs.com and if i tried the one named "internet" it just disappears). the fast.metropcs.com one works and i get an lte signal but i can not receive calls or sms. any help would be greatly appreciated.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] itendswithyou:
So I Google and tried another apn.

According to the post it is the stock metro apn setting, however I noticed if the lte signal is on I cannot receive calls or texts. This is distressing because I can browse the Web but can't receive anything or send anything.

Does anyone know how to fix this? Could this be a big with cyanogenmod?

I have an external power bank for my phone but looking to tweak it of possible.

I am doing some GPS logging and need the phone to stay active for a few days.

The power bank can keep it going but it has a ridiculous auto off feature. Basically after charging the phone the power bank turns off and you need to hit the button to start it again. While possible during my application ... it is not convenient.

Anyone know of a way to turn this feature off or a way to get an app like tasker to auto initiate the charge since it connected via USB?

If you want the the multi window feature it's only available for Samsung based roms. R uxuma7 and UCMC1 and maybe Embryo 7. Search for flashbar mod.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stonebear:
Is it just that the rom and kernel should be the same? I don't have a jwr phone just a jwr rom (stock) lol.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rohit02:
JSS kernels are not compatible with JWR versions so you have to flash a JWR kernel.(Franco for an example)

If you flash JSS kernel on a JWR ROM you might face many problems like scree tearing etc.

So if you are rooted, flash any rom

1)JSS or JSS-Q(latest) use JSS kernel

2)JWR ROM flash a JWR based kernel. :good:
