I have followed many of the guides in the galaxy development tab section
I found out that I do have a locked tablet so I was using this guide (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1131448) well I tried doing this odin thing but it would never install all the way I had to keep restarting it and hoping it would work but it never did. Now I am stuck with this screen can someone please help me try and root my tab please
I just figured out I can get into recovery mode by holding the power button for 10 secs so it is powered off and then once it powers off I hold all 3 buttons down and I can go into recovery mode or the mode with odin or whatever so how do flash this now, what do I need
I tried to just power it on normally and it is sticking at the Samsung GALAXY Tab 10.1 screen
I even tried this ODIN thing again located here (http://galaxytabhacks.com/galaxy-tab-10-1-hacks/how-to-root-galaxy-tab-10-1/) and it still freezes up at whatever point
I also tried doing a factory reset and it wiped everything but when it goes to boot it just stays stuck on the samsung glaaxy tab 10.1 screen
lol nice just used this PDA_SIGNED_HRI83_BUKDF.tar.md5 in odin when it was on the odin screen YAY!I think its back to stock now I need to try and get it to root lol here we go again
Posted detail instructions of resetting the phone once in bootloops, and rooting, post no.9
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1136958
this did not help me but thanks for trying anyone else??
did not help?!? Did you follow the steps or too lazy to read the post? The procedure works 100%! As for shortcut non exists unless you flash a pre-rooted firmware. Entering fastboot and loading clockworkmod recovery.img, than booting into the recovery and installing the su tools zip file from sd card (as mentioned in step 10 with links) is established method!
yes I tried I cannot even get my tab to boot on now so idk
lol nvm it was dead
can you PM me on msn messenger [email protected]
damn I guess with PDA_SIGNED_HRI83_BUKDF.tar.md5 IT WONT EVEN CHARGE PLEASE HELP
it will only charge when pad is off this thing is all a mess
follow the steps in the attached post from booting device into apx mode till booting into clockworkmod recovery than follow the second link to load clean manillaversion of honeycomb 3.1

Little change in commands for second link:
once in clockworkmod recovery type adb start-server.
adb script
than mk directory command as in the post followed by exit and in main adb pathway type push command as in post than follow the instruction s for restoration of firmware

I followed this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=861950 (Roebeet's post) which brought me back to stock.
However, when I apply the 1.1-3588 the tablet shuts off and is unable to be turned back on. The only way to turn it back on is to run the nvflash_gtablet batch file. At which point a receive a notice saying 'The update to version 1.1-3588' was not successful. Please try again or contact customer support.'
Why is the tablet unresponsive after the failed update? Why must I NVFlash to reactivate the screen?
I searched through the forums for the past hour and although I found similar problems I have yet to run into my exact one. I am hoping to find some help.
Edit*
I have the same problem as another user which can be found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=903684
I can NVFlash the stock image (or even the NVFlash of TnT-lite 1.02) and the tablet will boot after the flash and function. Power it off (or do something that requires a reboot) and the tablet will no longer function. No power on (that I can tell), can't boot to recovery......and if I plug the tablet in to the PC I can NVFlash it and it boots. It's like it's stuck in APX mode now. I just have to plug it in to the PC, no Power + Volume- combo.....just plug the USB in and run NVFlash. It boots (to whatever I flashed) and will run until I power it off or try to reboot.
Getting APX mode to function is not a problem......so I can NVFlash it but what I've tried so far has not worked (it doesn't delete the data partition, etc..as I reflash and it's right where it was before I turned it off).

Citi,
I'm not sure exactly what you are doing, but if you are getting the message
you described, that sounds more like you are booting in recovery or a regular
boot and not APX (Power/Volume - to be the white, the black APX NVFlash screen).
My suggestion is to do the stock recovery NVFlash Procedure again. Check
everything step by step to make sure the right files are there and the right
things done.
See if you can complete that and get back to a working bekit 1105 (Stock
Version 2638).
If you can do that, go into Settings/Display and set it so the display does not
turn off).
THEN, if it offers you the OTA Update, let it run.
If it is unsuccessful again, post back here and I will see if I can find the file
and instructions to load 3588 manually.
Hope this helps,

Ok so I reread Roebeets NVFlash post and double checked my files. All of them are there and in the correct location. I set up my USB drivers, booted into APX mode and ran the nvflash_gtablet.bat
Then the tablet loads properly into the stock TNT 2638. After setting up my WiFi I get a notification that the 3588 update is available. I download the update and after it ask me if I would like to apply now or later. I have tried both options however both seem to fail.
At this point if I hit apply now it shuts down the tablet however it does not turn on. The only way to turn it on is using nvflash_gtablet.bat file. Which it then boots up properly (and it is not wiped, it's as if it is jut turning on normally)and I either get one of two errors.
'The update to version 1.1-3588' was not successful. Please try again or contact customer support.'
or
'The update process cannot proceed due to an unrecoverable error. More information about the error is below, 'Verify checksum: file was not found. Downloaded file does not exist.null'
Hope this helps, I am not new to rooting/flashing roms but this is a completely new error to me.
Citi,
Did you do what I said about setting the display not to go off?
I tell people to do that because I have heard that it can
interrupt the download.
Whatever is happening, it seems like the download is not happening
or not finishing.
You can go to the Developer Forum (or there may be one in General)
and find the thread that tells where to download the .zip version of
the OTA 3588 download.
Then go down to end of the top 4349 thread in General and I wrote a post there for a
guy on how to install an update from the .zip file.
Rev
Yup I set the display to never turn off. However, it seems as if I have this problem http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=999832
I am currently working on this method
Edit* Well I figured out the exact problem however the link I posted was unable to solve it
Another thread on my problem, and the fix found to work for others has not worked for me,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=903684
Just bumping this as it is still relevant and it seems to be a unique issue, as all past solutions have yet to fix this problem. I spent the whole day on IRC and have seemed to stump a few people. Looks like I may have the first fully bricked tablet
Have you tried re-partitioning?
Can't get into CWM to do so, stuck in an infinite APX mode and I can only turn the power on via an NVFlash

get the recovery.img from from cwm .8 zip file and then use nvFlash to load that.
nvflash --bl bootloader.bin --download 9 recovery.img
(make sure you put the recovery.img in you nvFlash folder and then issue the command above. That will install cwm .8)
from what you wrote above it seems like you are getting stuck in apx mode when you reboot. So my question is what files did you download to setup your nvFlash????
I will attempt to load CWM using NVFlash, and I followed this guide EXACTLY http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=861950 for NVFlash for windows

which files did you download from his dropbox????? I am more interested in knowing if you used nvflash_gtablet_2010110500.zip or nvflash_gtablet_46_2010112600.zip????
I initially used that nvflash_gtablet_2010110500.zip and had the same problem as you few weeks ago. So I tried using nvflash_gtablet_46_2010112600.zip and that worked a lot better for me .
hope that helps...let me know if you stuck anywhere.
enjoy
Unfortunately I tried out both with the same result
So the problem has changed from not being able to load an update to being in an APX loop? If I understand your original post correctly you were indeed able to nvflash back to original stock and boot normally. Then it failed when you tried to do the update to 3588. If you can still do that...
1) nvflash to bekit's 1105 stock
2) do not install the update
3) clear cache and data with Method I from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1030915 - If this fails due to not being able to enter recovery then your nvflash was no good. You'll need to verify that you have the correct drivers installed, you're using the correct version of nvflash and that your image is sound. Easiest way to do that is to download them again.
4) install ClockworkMod .8 using MicroSD card method.
5) Re-partition 2048 and 0
Were there any error messages in the output of your latest nvflash attempts?
I posted on how you can get cwm .8 installed on your tablet if you are stuck in apx mode. There are also other threads that are pinned under the development section that explain how you can get cwm .8 using nvFlash. You will need that to get out of the apx loop that you are stuck in.

If the screen is blank then connect it to your computer and see if your tablet is in APX mode. You will probably hear the usb connect sound and you can go in device manager to see if it is connected. Let me know and then we can go from there
Yes it has been in a permanent APX mode since my original NVFlash, with the only way to turn the tablet on is to use the nvflash_gtablet.bat file. This will bring the tablet to TnT however my data has not wiped since my original NVFlash and the Wifi and other information is still present. It prompts me to download the new update however there is no need since once the tablet shuts down it will go to APX mode, with a rinse repeat of the cycle and I use .bat file to turn the tablet on.
ok try this...not sure if it will work but its worth a try
1. replace part9.img with the recovery.img ( i m sure u have done this already. this is so cwm .8 gets installed when you do a full nvFlash)
2. when you boot on for the first time.. press the power & + so you go in cwm .8.
let me know if you access cwm .8 if you do this ....we'll move forward from there
Failed first time I did it, but I just tried again and what do you know...success, unsure why.
Currently sitting in CWM looking at that beautiful green screen. I am in the IRC room if we could continue there that would probably work better and faster.
ya i m still at work and cant get on irc here :/...but if you are in cwm .8 then first thing i would do is wipe data then clear cache and then clear dalvik...then go under mounts menu and mount all the partiontions and then format all the partitions...once you are done with that i would mount your tablet so you can see is as a mass storage device on your computer and upload stock frimware 3588 on there...
use this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=861950 and go down to post nvflash and get the 3588.zip
from the 3588.zip get the update.zip and copy that to your tablet...once u have that go to the main menu of cwm .8 and choose the option to install update.zip form sdcard...i thikn thats the second one down
try that and see if it works...if not then i'll on irc in the evening today and i'll help you out ...dont stress we'll get your tablet up and running again
hello,
i had the clockwork recovery mod installed and a custom rom of the gharmony gingbergread installed and i tried to update to the new honeycomb alpha rom but when i tried to install the zip it failed and now i get the boot screen with the birds and when i try to boot into recovery mode i get Detect a recovery key pressed booting recovery kernel image but nothing loads, i tried nflash but i cant get it to to be recongized by the usb connection to my computer, did i competely brick my g tab ? any help would be greatly appreciated.
Yes, you soft bricked it. There is a video in this section that will show you how to get the USB driver to recognize. It is entitled:
"How to install the Honeycomb Alpha build VIDEO!!"
Then you need to NVFlash to stock 3558. There are several excellent how to's in this forum for this. Read them carefully. I would encourage you to play and pause the video as you go step by step, after you have read the instructions very carefully. One caveat, though. The Alpha is not working 100%, that is why it is called Alpha. You may not want to even install this until it is Beta or further.
thanks! the video was very helpful i was trying to boot into recovery instead of the apx mode >.<
Thanks a lot..... Saved me once agaig!!
Hi, first of all I love this forum, this is my first time posting here but I found it indispensable when I was doing Android development-related stuff. However I've now managed to do some damage to my phone and need some expert advice!
So I was following the instructions on the CM wiki (I can't post external links yet but the address of the page is /w/Install_CM_for_i9100) for installing CM (I'm using a Mac). I got my phone into download mode and used Heimdall to flash ClockworkMod Recovery. This is where I think I went wrong: Heimdall found the phone fine and transferred everything, however the progress bar held at 'full' for about 5 minutes. After a while I thought it must be done and just doesn't have a confirmation once it's done, so I unplugged the phone and rebooted into ClockworkMod Recovery. Recovery boots up fine but when I try to connect using ADB the phone can't be found. When trying to boot up normally I now get the warning triangle below the Samsung Galaxy logo and the phone just turns off. Booting into download mode, Heimdall can no longer find the phone when it's connected. So, since I can't boot into my stock OS, and I can't transfer a new OS or re-flash CMR, does this mean my phone's bricked? Or is this a known issue with a fix? I've tried the search function on this board but can't find this exact issue.
Hi all,
I need some help please.
I tried to root my sons galaxy young S6310N using a video on you tube
However at the 4.41 point I didnt have the yes- root option.
I themn rebooted and it went back into CWM recovery. v6.0.3.2
It's been stuck in this for 2 days now, I have searched everywhere for a solution but I'm lost now. I have information overload I think.
I have tried to install drivers through Kies but it won't recognise my phone in CWM recovery or in download mode.
I have tried to install a custom rom via sd card, it seems to work but reboots into CWM again.
I fear I may have made a mess of it now by messing around with things I know nothing about. I panicked really.
The phone was running jelly bean and is only a week old.
I can get adb but not sure how to use it properly.
Could someone please help?
Thanks in advance
sorted it myself
Hi, just in case anyone was interested I managed to sort this.
I put phone into download mode (holding vol - & menu & power) then pressed up at logo screen to enter download mode.
My pc then installed drivers automatically (something I had been struggling with in CWM recovery mode)
I then installed stock rom recovery.tar.md5 file using odin and the phone rebooted as normal.
I have given up trying to root it now, I may learn properly before attempting again, or may leave it.
Search for your device first before making a thread..!!

Good..but always use recovery for ur phone only..or make it for ur phone..
And do any changes in stock ROM after creating a BACKUP of the same..
ROOTING is not a difficult now-a-days but overcoming from the loss of time and data after BRICKING is so painful.
If you are not friendly with the commands and codes then use a software for that or follow up the WRITTEN guide..or use FARMAROOT app.
Head to thread...Thanks Mr. Bin4ry for this awesome method:
Rooting almost every phone

techman20, have you ever solved this? I ran to exact same issue and have been tried different methods for the past 2 days. I'm new to Android so need community's help.
Here is the current state of my device (GT-B9150 Samsung Homesync):
- In order to get root, flashed ROM MJ1 (TUR version), followed this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2497102
- After flash the device got very slow so I figured I need to wipe the data and cache partition
- There is no volume key of the device so I use adb to reboot to recovery mode (debug mode has been enabled earlier), again there is no key so I didn't know how to select in the screen (should have use adb command as well, I was not that familar with adb), instead I put into the command rm -r /data, then the device dead
- After reboot the device stuck in the bootloop: I see samsung logo and homesync logo, NO adb connection (I think the debugging mode is not on)
- I tried flash a few other versions of the ROM and it does not working as well, all stuck same at the bootloop
I figured if I can wipe the data and cache partition after a fresh installation of ROM the device could be saved.
Here are a few path that I see can solve this:
Option 1: Get into recovery mode, but I don't know the key combination, also adb is not working so seems can not use command line either
Option 2: Since I'm able to get into download mode, I can use Odin to flash some sort of bootloader with adb function, so that I can later use command to get into recovery mode
Option 3: Complete wipe out the device, re-partition using Odin
Since I'm new I don't exactly know if any options here makes sense and what are the risk for each. Also I don't have the pip for option 3. Would be great if any expert here can shed some light on, it's been bothered me for 2 entire days at weekend.
Thanks,
Is there anyone can please help me with this issue, or provide some insights?
Thanks

for boot loop you need to clean data and cache partition. To do that you need to go to recovery mode.
To do that, turn off the device , hold the power button. First you will see its power on, keep it pressed. And after 5s , you can home sync will rebooted to recovery.
Hi all, I know this is too old subject, but unfortunately I had my homesync flashed firmware through Odin and I did nand erase all, it is now stuck to Samsung homesync logo after booting. I know it is required wipe but how if no recovery is installed into the original firmware? any thought?
