You can't ROM it unless you have root.

Unplug it and power it up .

Have you tried the stock firmware Odin file in the development section .download and extract below tar.file and run it in Odin

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2800372

Try above Odin file before we

start over.

1: Uninstall kies from your computer

2: grab USB drivers for your device from Samsung's website

3: on your computer go to "device manager" and look under "portable devices" and "other devices" to delete/uninstall drivers and restart computer.

4: connect your tablet and install downloaded drivers from Samsung .eject tablet when finished

5: re download the CF-Auto-root and extract it for use again(delete all previous root/drivers so you don't mix them up)

6: boot into download mode with button combo and re connect your phone to computer and start Odin.

7: navigate to extracted

CF-Auto-root location and open file in AP or PDA slot and run it again.

Seriously no matter what you do and what the screen says ,you can still end up with a partial/bad download.oh and kies is no good cause it knows that your device is up to date.

it WORKS! Thank you!!

i also follow your instructions earlier .. i install the flashify app and flash the TWRP recovery image. Now i can do the factory data reset using this recovery.. but its stuck in the samsung galaxy tab s Logo ? is that still ok because i wiped it or its a bigger problem ?
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jball:
Give it time to boot,if it don't boot after ten minutes than do the button combo till you get into download mode and start over yet again as far as Odin the stock file and than TWRP .don't wipe right after flashing TWRP ,let it boot first than boot into recovery with another app called "reboot" purple with a yellow lightning bolt is the apps icon

Get it to boot after root and custom recovery and then just format the internal SD card and then I'll take care of your situation

Also you need to be more descriptive about what you've done or followed so far .I can give better instructions accordingly
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hinaruu:
first of all sorry for my bad english :3 im not that good enough...

i follow your instructions properly... but the last step you said.. "format the internal sd card" i accidentally format the internal with the system...

so i assume that is the problem

the system is only 54 MB and the data is 0 mb.. and now im stuck in the boot logo and i dont have any backup .. im so noob..

i really appreciate your help sir..

Why are you trying to wipe the EFS ?

If it's in fact a T-Mobile Note 4 than the Odin method should work with no problem assuming you follow the instructions fully.

i was trying to back up my efs before installing custom roms trying to be safe and ended up wiped my phone so it doesnt get a signal...lol

it says unknown on like everything in STATUS....

so i was reading about QCN files, but i cant factory reset the device from within its own stock recovery!!

so my signal sucks...i have fixed my phone signals before with just restoring efs....write qcn and do factory reset and BAM! working..this one is not going through because the factory reset is blocked

i even installed twrp and wiped the whole OS off then booted back in to odin and ran stock....NOPE..still had that dang MDM!

Galaxy Tab S won't factory reset

Hello,

I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab S 10.5 (SM-T800) that will not progress any further than the initial Samsung Galaxy Tab S screen and will not give me a hard reset option; it will not go into recovery mode in order to factory reset no matter what I do. The only thing it will do is keep restarting on the Samsung Galaxy Tab S Screen for 6 seconds, turn off for 3 and turn on again for 6 seconds when I hold the Power, Home and Volume up buttons. When I hold the Power, Volume down and Home buttons it goes into the Warning!! Custom OS download screen that then goes into Odin mode if I hit Volume up to continue. Moreover, it will only turn off when it is plugged in and charging and I hold the Power and Volume up buttons. Any other button combination will just have it boot up to the initial Samsung Galaxy Tab S screen and it will stop there. I can detect a slight fading of the screen, as if it wants to continue, but it never does.

I have tried calling Samsung support, but their first suggestion was going for the hard reset, which it won't do. Also, seeing how I am out of the country (I bought it in the US) and cannot bring the tablet in for service, I am apparently out of options according to Samsung Support, unless i have it shipped home to have someone bring it in. Is there anything I can do here that will unfreeze it? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Toni

Flash the stock firmware, boot to recovery, wipe data, cache. Reboot.

Inability to get into recovery is 99% pilot error.

Go into download mode, hit cancel, immediately hold POWER + HOME + VOL UP until recovery boots.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asta2:
Thank you

Thanks for the reply! I apologize for my late reply but I was traveling and didn't have reliable internet to play with.

I unfortunately have no idea what the stock firmware was, although I get a version through entering my model number through the Samsung Kies emergency firmware recovery. Is that correct? How do I then go about flashing when the computer won't recognize that anything is connected to it? Sorry about the questions, I'm pretty new to this and hesitant about touching anything to do with the firmware/OS of the tablet in case I screw it up even worse.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashyx:
You can download the stock firmware from SamMobile or samsung-updates.com.

You put the tablet into download mode(odin mode) then flash with OdIN.

I suggest you first download your firmware from the above sites, download the one for your device and region then post back here for further instructions.

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RDN_ROXAS:
For everyone who has this problem you are going to want to follow these steps...

1. Set a password for the device

2. Make sure the device has 80% charge or more

3. Settings -> Security -> Encrypt Device

Now once you have encrypted your device and it has went all the way through. Reboot the device and now on bootup it should ask you for a password to get into your device to see encrypted data. Get this password wrong 15 times (can vary from device) and it will reboot. Retry for other three times and it will wipe the device clean of any data and it will reboot, then come up as if you're registering a new device from factory reset. I know this solution is a bit caveman status, but it works. Hope this helps!

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashyx:
Not sure why this needs to be repeated time and time again.

You CANNOT factory reset a demo unit using the stock factory reset. It just won't happen. It is blocked by mdm.

To overcome this it is ESSENTIAL to install TWRP and use the Factory reset option.

Then the stock firmware MUST be installed with ODIN using the PIT file and selecting REPARTITION to flash.

This will ensure demo mode is removed, mdm is removed, the stock firmware is installed and all partitions are the correct size.

I am suffering from Retail Mode as well... I am not able to enable debugger mode because everything is grayed out. I was able to install 6.0.1 and thought I had won the battle when I realized it was temporary defeat when I saw that Retail Mode was still running and the MDM was still in play. The next move is to try and install TWRP, but how do it provide the PIT file to re-partition and make everything new?

Hi,

As Google moved into top notch phones category, it would be interesting how Nexus 6 performs in recording audio department during video capture in loud area. As known, Galaxy Nexus , Nexus 4 and Nexus 5 are useless recording audio during video capture in loud area.

HTC M7/M8 are the only ones from Android league which can record audio during video capture without distortion in loud area up to 150db sound pressure.

It is really interesting how good is Nexus 6 in this department?

I haven't received mine Nexus 6 yet, so would really appreciate samples.

[Nexus 6  General] neyenlives:
If it records sound I'm good. I don't have time in life to discern decibels and HDR mics and whatnot. It's motorola built. I would be looking into what the latest Moto X 2Gen device is doing for the closest indicator thus far if you want info that might be the closest thing to the N6 mic. Comparing to HTC or Samsung devices is relatively meaningless.
[Nexus 6  General] ipmanwck:
Nice vid. When you get the nexus please also do a comparison. When I had my htc one with the membrane I was banging on and on about when the had to change the mics and audio got worst but no one listened now it's clear)
[Nexus 6  General] jamesrick80:
I'm glad samsung paid attention to there mics with the note 4, has some of the best audio recording I have experienced on a phone and the 3 mics work perfectly and can even separate voices individually if you wanted to do that.

[Nexus 6  General] jamesrick80:
Usually I record things like class lectures, it has gotten quite noisy in class especially when people participate and I was able to hear the professor loud and clear over some of their voices and if not, samsung software allows me to tinker with the recorded audio.

Excellent to hear the N4 has great audio recording
[Nexus 6  General] msavic6:
Have you tried recording a concert or a band? A class lecture at its peak won't be as loud as one of the above, a live band is a great test of the mics recording quality.
