[Samsung Galaxy Tab E  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] BigCountry907:
First......This is a work in progress meaning it is not a fully working solution yet.​

So that's the bad news.

The good news is that this provides an opportunity to learn something.

Everything we learn should also apply to any of the newer Samsung Qualcomm Based Devices.

Lets investigate some of the past methods used to unbrick dead samsung devices.

Also please note that these methods are for Hard Bricked Devices. ( NO Download Mode / NO Recovery Mode / Unresponsive )

Any device that can boot into download mode can easily be fixed with ODIN.

#1) Methods of possible DeBrick That I know of.

A) Use Recovery SD Card.

B) Use Firehose to flash in QDL 9008 / 9006 mode.

C) Boxes - JavaCard - Hardware type solutions.

For now lets look at option A). Hopefully this option is still viable. Although I have tested this a little and so far I am still unable to get booted into download mode.

So in researching Debrick image or Debrick rom of samsung devices you will find some things.

This is what we are interested

Looking at that we should be able to use ODIN and select T-Flash to create the Boot-Recovery-Image.

Unfortunately I tried this and it did not work. The T-Flash just hangs and eventually errors out.

This could be due to the version of Odin i used.

I tried a couple of different Odin versions without any luck.

And also YES you have to do this on a working device.

Since the ODIN method didn't work I know from past experience how to make a bootable EMMC Clone onto a SD-Card.

You can do this in windows or in linux or in the device Terminal ( TWRP Terminal)

This command will make a byte for byte copy of the device EMMC onto a SD Card.

Here are the steps.

1) Insert Blank 16GB SD card into the working device. ( The sd card must be high quality Like V30 or U1 Class. " 95 to 100 mbs speed " )

2) The bootloader version of the device you are using to make the sd card has to match the version on the bricked device. (Flash good device with odin to match factory software before making sd card) <-- <-- <-- " Probable reason my Card is not working yet to boot my bricked device "

3) After that its pretty simple.

We know that the main EMMC of the Tablet is MMCBLK0

We know that the SD Card is assigned MMCBLK1

So executing the following command will clone the emmc to the sd card.

dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=/dev/block/mmcblk1

It will take between 30 min and a hour to copy.

I have created this image and tested it but no luck yet.

The image is of the factory T560NUUEU1CQK2_T560NUXAR1CQK2 firmware.

I bricked my tab by flashing the aboot.bin alone from COMBINATION_XAR_FA51_T560NUUEU1APH1.

I flashed just the aboot without flashing the rest of the booloaders from COMBINATION_XAR_FA51_T560NUUEU1APH1.

So what i need to do next is make a card that has the complete set of bootloaders from COMBINATION_XAR_FA51_T560NUUEU1APH1.

Once we have a clone of the emmc we can flash seperate partitions on the sd card just like if we did on the device.

I know for sure the bootloader versions have to match. This is a likly cause for my card not to bring my Tab back to life.

Another possibility is that the card has the whole emmc backup. Mirror of the device. Realistically it should be just the bootloaders.

I have looked at some of the boot-recovery images for other devices. Some have only the bootloaders. Some have all the partitions but only the bootloaders flashed. And even the fact that it is a direct copy of the emmc and not its own unique GPT could all factor into it not working at the moment.

All these different combinations of things could be the difference between the card working or not working.

I will upload the image for you if you want to test it.

You can also dump each partition to an individual backup image in case you need any of them.

Do it in linux using "dd" or do it on the device using "dd" and mmcblk1 rather than mmcblk0

If you don't know what i'm talking about don't worry. I will go over things like that at some point in time.

Here is a upload of the SD Card - EMMC Clone for 16GB T560NU

http://www.mediafire.com/file/5m0b7r11nc3nn5q/16GB-T560NU-.img.zip/file

Unzip the file.

Use win32diskimager to flash the image to the sdcard.

After win32diskimage is complete a bunch of file windows will pop up. On windows 10.

It will say disk must be formatted. Do NOT format the disks.

Close them all and remove the sd card from the computer.

Put sd card in bricked device.

Plug in usb.

Try to boot.

Try to boot into download mode.

Let it sit 5 or 10 min.

See if anything happens.

If you have any luck please let us know.
