[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Segnale007:
Ok guys, I feel this is just the end of the games... I was flashing back the Roto JME fw with the swype keyboard issue fixed that I have just made, when I accidentally unplugged the tab while starting flashing and in downloading mode.

Now all I get is a logo with a phone an alert symbol and a computer :( .

Windows as well as Odin see it, but I can't do anything, as Odin hangs on waiting for connection, or something like that.

Is there anything I can do?? Or do I really have to take it to the warranty? And if I will have to take it to the warranty will they see I have previously flashed a beta rooted image on it??

Here's what I am talking about

Please I need some help..

Thanks

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ftgg99:
I've heard plenty of goofy stories about bricking devices over the years. You must conclude the following:

1.Flash your device in a locked room to avoid your wife/ child pulling cables or pressing buttons.

2.Don't touch anything while you're flashing. This is why many people that could help you will ignore you after reading about 'accidentally disconnected' wires - they just assume you're a moron not worth helping.

3.Read instructions carefully and write the procedure out in your own words if its your first time.

I've been flashing for years and haven't had a brick yet. Not crossing my fingers either because it has little to do with luck and much to do with care. In this way its a lot like making babies...
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Levistras:
Good advice.

My only semi-bricks (that involved an hour or two of trial and error to unbrick) resulted from some manner of overzealous cable unplugging.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Segnale007:
This is what I have done
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Segnale007:
Well, first of all thanks for ur nice words. Let me just say that I was about to disconnect another device from the hub where the GTAB was attached and flashing at that time, and yea, I accidentally unplugged the GTAB instead of the other device. I may be a moron, thanks, and thankfully not everyone believes themselves as god, which is a good reason to not help other people who are in troubles, even if for stupid things sometimes... If everyone were thinking like u we were probably still at the age of 1400 ...
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ftgg99:
Mate it wasn't a barb directed at you personally, but you weren't exactly careful were you?

I'm no god... but I've never bricked a device either, and I've been flashing for over five years now. To top it off I've almost never owned a device which could be taken back to the shop (90% of them come from other countries, not my local retailers). Perhaps this has taught me to be careful.

In any case, what I said holds true, and if you ask around I'm certain you find most will agree.

Cannot start my Gtab after trying update JMC

...Hello everybody,

I am really worry about the fact my Gtab doesn't want to switch on after trying to flash it. I tried all process to put it on download mode or recovery but nothing work.

Do you have any idea about it ? Is there a specific procedure to switch on (eg : press power for 1 minutes + blablabla).

My provider doesn't want to take my Gtab in warenty before my contract is activated (the 4th of february).

Thank you for your answer

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dannward:
I also had a semi-bricked VZW Tab, with the phone-triangle-computer warning graphic at start up. (I flashed a new boot loader, and failed to read the instructions closely enough. Either the file was incorrect for my device, or the drivers were not loaded correctly, but my tablet was borked.)

Using heimdall 1.3.2 (with the correct drivers, on a 32-bit windows system), I clicked the "close pc screen" option to clear the warning.

I then held the power button until it turned off, then held vol+ and power to re-enter download mode. Once in download mode, I used heimdall 1.1.1 to flash the zImage from SCH-I800-Stock-Rooted-2.3.5. My tablet (still unrooted, and still stock?) booted, but sat at the SAMSUNG logo for ten minutes or more. (It announced its progress, telling me periodically "five minutes remaining", etc.)

Once it finished, my tablet was revived. I will now follow the above advice and read all instructions very carefully, re-writing them in my own words to ensure I understand what I'm doing, before I try this again. :)

One year old thread......do you guys ever watch posting dates???
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swiftstealth:
...like REALLY bricked

bumping this old thread in hopes that someone can point me in the right direction...

Got my p7510 (10.1" wifi retail) stuck pretty badly when trying to restore stock ROM coming from Overcome (it came rooted from ebay). From what I gather from the forums, seems like my bootloader is still locked.

whenever I attempt to flash a BOOTLOADER, PIT, or PDA using ODIN it connects, initializes, and gets stuck on "Flashing boot.img"

I think the recovery partition is damaged. When I boot using Power + Volume Down, I can get to the screen where you select recovery mode or download mode but recovery mode will not load. The screen flickers when I select recovery, but goes nowhere. Download mode works.

I tried using nvflash to force the right software onto it but I get error 0x4 (usb write failed).

There has to be a way to restore the stock bootloader and get this thing running again. Tablet will not boot android at this point. I have been searching the forums for about a week now, anyone have any ideas?

Congrats on you new ROMs mate :)

We need as many cooks as possible :) If you are looking for more open cook-friendly roms to play around with, you can try Mangosora's 6.1 build :D

Thanks for this Drupad :) I'm still in the process of learning to cook Sense ROMs.
[TG01 ROM Development] drupad2drupad:
Thanks for the support mate! :)

I have already dumped Mangosora's 6.1 ;)

Am working on it so you can expect a cooked version out soon!

I am not quite sure if Sense is a piece of cake, but will try. If not, 6.1 as base and more cooked roms - that are fast and stable might be on their way :D
[TG01 ROM Development] olyloh6696:
thanks ! i look forward to them :) when i get some free time i will try to cook!

Hi all,

Really good ROM, thanks drupad2drupad :)

I have "little" problem with this ROM. After flashing everything worked fine, but after some times in SPB home I see too buttons Register and Close. And of course SPB not working :)

I have flashed about 3 or 4 times and got same problem every time.

In real I don't want to spend $29.95 for SPB :)
[TG01 ROM Development] drupad2drupad:
Hi Vgevorgyan,

I won't encourage freewares/cracked SPB shells.

The one installed in the rom is 15 day trail version which can be fully activated if you have a registration key.

You can even uninstall SPB from settings -> remove program if you like and replace it with full copy as and when you buy it for yourself :)

I am glad you like this rom as much as I do :D

[Galaxy Tab General] rhca50:
I've recently seen (somewhere) a usb pigtail cable that shorts the pins to make the tab (or any other usb chargable phone) think it's hooked up to a wall charger, rather than a trickle charging usb port.... I need to find that again and just order a few to have in my various cable bags.
[Galaxy Tab General] mattcelt:
If you do find it again, please post it here. Definitely something I'd like in my bag of tricks as well.
[Galaxy Tab General] Croak:
Just as an FYI, the 2A charger that came with my Nook Color charges the Tab just fine from mains, even indicates charging. Makes sense, since both devices have a 4000mAH battery.

It's also a nicer unit for travel, it's nicely rounded, the prongs fold into the body of the charger, and you can pick it up from Barnes and Nobles stores just about anywhere in the US. Still doesn't solve the Tab cable issue though.
[Galaxy Tab General] agentdr8:
I'm planning on hacking apart a spare Tab cable so that it goes to a female microUSB; no more multiple cable types then. The stock Tab cable doesn't appear to have more than 6 pins, of which I'm sure a few are grounds.
[Galaxy Tab General] ResonanceZero:
Someone recently posted a link to the first cheap 3rd-party cables:

http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.51931

Get those with a 6' USB extension cable and the Nook charger, and that may be a winning combination. I ordered four the the charging cables yesterday, and I'll try to remember to post whether or not they work out well.
[Galaxy Tab General] mattcelt:
Resonance, what are you planning on using for a car charger, if any? I really like the Navigator app, but it's just not practical if I can't keep the Tab charged while using it.

Does anyone know if there are any USB->12v adapters that have the right circuitry for the Samsung? For that matter, do any other devices use the same amperage detection setup the Tab does? It would be good to know what components are cross-compatible.
[Galaxy Tab General] vs2:
Thanks for the info.

How about a list of chargers that work fine on the GTab.

1. Garminfone charger (1amp - works great and I use it as my primary charger)
[Galaxy Tab General] ResonanceZero:
A 12V inverter, attached to the standard wall charger. :/

I bought the Duragadget 12V->USB charger, since it was advertised specifically as a 2A charger for the Galaxy Tab, but it DOES NOT work as advertised (the Tab treats it like a any other low-current USB port, and even offers to mount mass storage, heh).

Using the inverter and the wall charger worked just fine, though it was a bit clunky and unstable (on mine, the prongs aren't tightly gripped, so it bends out of place easily).

I'd been contemplating giving the Duragadget charger with integrated cable a try, but having been burned once by Duragadget, I'm a bit hesitant to do so.
[Galaxy Tab General] nacron:
OMG...I bought a charger cable from amazon SOLD BY AMAZON marketed as OEM samsung charger and I got the same one in the deal extreme page. WTF...paid $12 for it too.
[Galaxy Tab General] nacron:
looks like that car charger is the same as the one you bought with a USB cable included.
[Galaxy Tab General] ResonanceZero:
Good eyes. I thought it was a different unit with an integrated cable.

Has anyone found a functioning 12v charger?
[Galaxy Tab General] G54582:
yes, the verizon store has a 12v charger for the galaxy tab, but that was the only place I was able to find one... other than online.
[Galaxy Tab General] knowthenazz:
Hi,

Can anyone else confirm that the Nook charger works for the Tab?

I've tried other high current (2.0+ amp) chargers. Some designed for the ipad and some not, and I always get the trickle charge icon and it's treated as a computer USB connection (Mass storage device options, etc).

How much was the Verizon charger?

Thanks!
[Galaxy Tab General] ipit:
stock wall charger works for me.
[Galaxy Tab General] texasreb:
Google the gobatt 2 charger. It comes with a usb adapter that charges the tab on any charger.
[Galaxy Tab General] knowthenazz:
Hi,

Thanks for the tip. I can't find much information about the Scosche GoBatt 2 charger, or the adapter that comes with it. Today I tried other Scosche chargers, including their iPad charger, and it didn't seem to work.

Can you give some more details on the adapter that comes with the GoBatt 2?

Thanks!
[Galaxy Tab General] hnljay:
Got this travel adapter by ZipKord with 2 - 1 amp outlets. Works with the OEM cord and also the Gomadic tip made for the Galaxy Tab. Just need to be careful it's not the older version that only has the lower power outlets. Cheapest I could find was $13+, so if it's less, it's the lower power. With the Gomadic tip and reractable cord, it says it's charging.

Also this Scosche battery pack seems like it would work. Has 2 - 1 amp USB ports. I ordered one and should get it tomorrow.

sometimes the tablet won't charge. it goes down slowly ,. it showing voltage 3.8 v

but sometimes the tablet is charging ok . it showing voltage 4.0 / 4.1 v

do anyone knows what is wrong?
[Galaxy Tab General] priyana:
This is a P1000 Galaxy Tab forum.

Your device should be discussed here:

http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1482

anyway, Isn't the charger meant to draw from 240v mains?
[Galaxy Tab General] rajni1402:
Please google for 12v to 5v converter circuit capable of delivering 2A current, that will make your tab alive throughout your journey. otherwise shop online a laptop inverter that will convert car's 12v into AC 230v, use your wall charger on inverter's power output plug. That way you can solve it. DO NOT BUY CAR USB converters with 1 or 2 USB ports which will give only 500mA (0.5A) current which is not sufficient to charge your tab's battery as tab is sucking around 1A current from your battery.

what i did...

Hope his helps..

My wife is in a chair as well. So it is very handy to be able to charge her phone while shes out. Only with thess jerks and their propritary power cables changing with every other device, and her going thru phones, laptops and tabs every few months I just went ahead and bought an extension auz power plug (cig lighter socket) from auto parts store. I cut the male plug off added enough wire and an inline fuse to reach where i wanted to mount it. Then attached to crimp onl loop ends and after checking polarity attached direct to 1 of the onboard bstteries. Hence plug in any oem or aftermarket car adapter you like. For any electronics. And as long as you remove adapter when not in use power drain is minimal. Works titties.

---------- Post added at 10:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:27 PM ----------

Im sure with your charging problems you have also checked the connection? Ive found on nearly every micro usb connection and the samsung tab 30 pin that if you use it quite a bit when its plugged in it tends to flex the internal wafer inside the female. It becomes very easy to flex it down out of the way so when you insert the male it misses that wafer all together. It will still show as attempting to charge on most devices, but wont at all or give a mimimal amount of charge. Often draining the unit instead. Samsung, htc, sony, lg, advant vega,all of these ive seen do it. Wiggling the cord produces intermittant chargng and seems either your wire is bad or the soilder joints inside the unit are loose. All you need is a needle sized piece of plastic that you cam wedge in to move/flex the wafer back to center of plug. After that you should feel the difference when you plug it in....

Posting Noob

But hope that helps.
