[Q] Error when attempting to go to stock ROM - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a rooted Galaxy Tab 10.1 wifi GT-P7510 with CWM
I flashed ROM Starburst ROM and the 1.4Ghz Overclocking kernel for Touchwiz UX.
Shortly after this I started have erratic battery behavior. I was not able to resolve this after trying many of the fixes I founds here. I decided to go back to the stock ROM and kernel.
I download hc-3.1_ota-full_sam_tab_10.1.zip and hc-3.1_touchwiz_ux-full_sam_tab_10.1.zip.
I first tried to install hc-3.1_touchwiz_ux-full_sam_tab_10.1.zip.
and received the following error:
ASSERT FAILED
getprop("ro.bootloader")=="P7100BUKB7"||getprop("ro.bootloader")=="P7100BUKC8"
I then tried hc-3.1_ota-full_sam_tab_10.1.zip and received a similar error:
getprop("ro.bootloader")=="P7100BUKB7" E:error in /sdcard/hc-3.1_ota-full_sam_tab_10.1.zip
I did Factory Reset/Wipe, wipe cache and then wipe dalvick cache.
Navigated to install zip from sdcard > choose zip from sdcard
How can I get back to the stock ROM?
Right now I have it working on the starburst ROM without the overclocking kernel. I still have excessive drain ion the battery.
I want to get back to stock in case I have to send this off to samsung for repair.
Thank you for any assistance you can offer.

I have the same error on a Galaxy Tab 10.1 WiFi I just purchased. Is a wipe absolutely needed? The error seems to be with the ZIP file.

im getting that error and another error. i can reflash the overcome rom. but i jst want to get back to stock. i hear re-rooting works. going to try thattonight. if i come across a fixill post.

Have you reverted the kernel ?
If not, I would start there first.

revert the kernel? how do you do that?

I have had the same errors come up. I reflashed clockwork recovery with odin and after that, problems went away. This has only happened to me if i use rom manager to go into recovery, happens a couple of times.

Personally I haven't messed with flashing kernels. I would recommend that you head back to the thread where you got the kernel from and start from there. I would imagine that there are instructions, or someone could help you.

OK, I reccomend never using ROM manager it's wonky on our tabs, just boot into recovery with the button combo or the power menu if your ROM has it.
The steps you should take to get back to stock.
I you made a nandroid backup of your stock ROM flash that.
Try re-downloading the stock ROM zips (you may have gotten a bad download)
If those fail.
Flash the new version of Clockwork Mod found in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1090289
(sorry the link button was giving me grief.)
It's an ODIN flash should be pretty simple. Then try again to flash the stock .zip
Unfortunately this may not resolve your battery issue. For help with that go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1215182
Good Luck!

Some Assistance Installing CM7

Hey everyone, I would like some help from some of you and any input would be greatly appreciated
Im currently running a froyo rom 2.2.1 toxic 7 and it is a port of a i9000 rom so my phone is listed as i9000 in the settings. I tried installing cyanogen 7 the nightly build and one of the release candidates but i got a status 7 error on both of them
a quick google search tells me that because my phone is in i9000, it wont install so i was wondering if anyone had an idea of what to do? I tried installing cmenards overstock kernel but once I chose it from the install zip from sd, my screen was stuck on "Installing Update..." so after 30 minutes, I did a battery pull and it still booted into my regular rom.
So my question is, how could I get my phone to cyanogen 7? and if I have to go back to stock, how would I go abouts to getting cm7.
I would like to thank you in advance for reading this and any help is greatly appreciated
either odin back to stock or try to flash a vibrant boot gingerbread bootloader and then flash
Yea, like the guy above me said, odin to stock and then follow cm7 op instructions.... i always odin to stock before installing any roms, unless i happen to be on a rom that is a step in the ops instructions for flashing.
Sent from a cell tower to the XDA server to you.
odin to stock, copy the update.zip i've attached to your internal sd use it to flash the CM7 CWR.
Factory Reset
Mounts menu ---> Format System
Advanced menu ----> Wipe Dalvik cache
Flash CM7
Fix Permissions
Reboot enjoy.

Corrupted Clockworkmod?

This is my first time posting.
I am a noob, but I am trying to get beyond that. I have flashed kernels and ROMS to my GT-I9100, with success. The other day, I was going to flash a new ROM, and I tried to make a Clockworkmod backup of my current ROM...while the phone was charging. Is this a major blunder?
The reason that I ask is that CWM crashed in the middle of the backup, and now I can't enter CWM recovery and the phone doesn't boot properly. I just get stuck in a bootloop. I can get into download mode. I used Pistachio's post about how to fix a soft-bricked GS2 to flash back to stock thru Odin. Then I used CF-ROOT to re-root the phone. After that, everything works fine, and I can get to Android recovery mode. Then when I try to flash a ROM, Titanium Backup must be restoring the previous version of ROM Manager, and I get stuck in the same bootloop when trying to get into CWM recovery.
Is Clockworkmod corrupted? Did the recovery partition get corrupted? Should I flash back to stock, delete ROM Manager, then re-install it? Should I bite the bullet and delete my Titanium Backup folder, then re-install everything from scratch? Should I flash back to stock with Pistachio's .PIT file and tick RE-PARTITION?
I looked for an answer specific to this problem, and cannot find the exact same scenario in any other threads. There are similar problems, but I think that I have a CWM app or recovery partition problem, or I may have a NAND rw corruption. I don't think that it is a NAND rw corruption though, because I can flash different kernels and ROMs.
I have been using Resurrection Remix versions 2.2, 2.4.1, and 2.5.3.
I have been using Siyah 3.3.2 kernel.
Please help, and excuse my noobness if I am beating a dead horse with this question.
Sounds like Rom Manager borked CWM/CWRecovery, which it seems to do on SGS2 quite a lot.
Most of the scenario you outlined in para.3 of your post (back to stock, delete ROM Manager) sounds like a good WTG, but do not reinstall it.
If you're going to use a kernel which has CWM/CWRecovery (like Siyah), do not use Rom Manager at all. Uninstall it & keep it that way. CWM/Recovery can do pretty much everything Rom Manager can, and you're playing with fire having both on the phone. Eventually Rom Manager will bork CWM again if you use it.
In the first instance, go back to stock, re-root your phone & reinstall the rom/kernel you're wanting to use. If Rom Manager is installed by default, uninstall it before you do anything else. With a bit of luck, you shouldn't have to do anything else (like messing around with PIT's which you also mentioned in para.3). If you batch restore your apps with TI, make sure you don't restore Rom Manager.
Thanks for the speedy reply.
I will try what you have suggested, but how do I flash the .zip file from my phone without ROM Manager? Do I have to do it through Odin?
Yep, that's right. Get an Odin flashable rom from Intratech's thread (search for it on here). If links in that thread don't work, search here or Samfirmware.
Edit - And once you've got your phone back up & running the way you want, use CWRecovery to do all your flashing.
My apologies, I should have been more specific. I want to flash the RR 2.5.3.zip. Should I still download it to the PC, then flash through Odin, or can I use Android recovery to do it through the phone?
OK. Let's rewind a bit.
What state is your phone in right now ?
I am flashed back to stock, and about to use CF-ROOT.
OK. Root the phone, CWM/Recovery will be installed by default. Once the phone is rooted, reboot into CWRecovery, flash your RR zip & you should be GTG. Just remove Rom Manager if it's installed as part of that process before you do anything else (including backing up). If you're going to restore a backup, again, uninstall Rom Manager immediately after you restore.
OK, after I flash CF-ROOT, I will re-install Titanium Backup, and delete ROM Manager to be safe before proceeding. Then I will flash the ROM.zip and test CW recovery and reboot again. I will reply after doing so.
Thanks
ARRRGH!
After flashing CF-ROOT I cannot get to the splash screen upon reboot. I made sure that I ticked USB debugging before flashing the kernel. I can still get into download mode and CWRecovery, so I flashed back to stock, and tried again to no avail. I tried flashing the RR 2.5.3.zip, in CWRecovery, and it flashed. I get to the splash screen but no further. I feel like a terrible noob now, because yesterday I had the phone flashed to stock and rooted no problem. Is there something that I am missing? I made sure that I used the proper CF-ROOT kernel.
So you're getting bootloop when you flash RR ? Have you tried booting into recovery & doing a wipe/factory reset ?
I believe that I am fixed.
I restored a Nandroid backup of my stock ICS from right after my original rooting, and the phone booted fine. I did a wipe/factory reset and wiped cache. Then I flashed RR 2.5.3. The phone rebooted fine again. I IMMEDIATELY uninstalled ROM Manager and made sure it was out of Titanium Backup as well. I have rebooted several times, normal, download, and CWRecovery, and everything works as it should. I think that I am getting over my noobness.
I WILL NEVER INSTALL ROM MANAGER AGAIN...DOWN WITH ROM MANAGER!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Except for the Little Alex icon, that's still pretty cool.
A thousand thanks for your help. At least I was on the right track when I first asked for help. I was pretty sure it was a problem with ROM Manager, because when it crashed, it started this whole mess. I'll be sure to press the THANKS button for your help, and I'm going to thank Pistachio for his thread as well.
Not n00bness, stuff happens sometimes ;-) You weren't the first person to get tripped up by Rom Manager (I did not long after I got my phone), and you won't be the last.
Yep you had a fair idea of what might have caused it, and your detailed OP certainly made it a lot easier to work out WTF was causing the problems.
No probs. Glad you got it sorted ;-)

[Q] Galaxy S 2 Boot Error

Hi Everyone! just a rookie here in need of a bit of advice.
I'm a Galaxy S II I9100 owner and have my phone rooted and all setup with custom roms and been comfortable with flashing for some time now. My ROM of choice recently was Vanilla Rootbox and have to say the ROM has been fantastic with very few bugs to report. Last night i recieved the OTA update via Goo Manager for Vanilla Rootbox 3.4. I downloaded the full update over wifi and flashed with all wipes no worries. Next step was to flash the latest GAPPS and i figured there would be nothing wrong with flashing the GAPPS zip i had on my sd card that i had downloaded the last time i was notified of a GAPPS update via Goo manager as well. After flashing, wiping everything and rebooting again. My phone then booted up to a series of dialog boxes indicating that many google processes had stopped functioning. apps.google.com etc etc. A similar error has been reported in the Vanilla Rootbox thread by another user but i wasnt able to report this bug their either because my post count is too low to post in a development forum. So after seeing this error i rebooted into recovery to flash my last backup but CWM recovery came back with an error messaging stating it couldnt mount either ext or int sdcard. i did a factory reset which made no difference to the problem whatsoever. I then downloaded ODIN and the latest stock ICS Rom and flashed it via ODIN with no reported errors. My phone now boots through the optus boot animation and is stuck at the Galaxy S 2 screen with the flashing red and yellow animation over the S. If i turn off the phone with the power button, the phone turns off and immediately starts again and gets stuck at the flashing s screen. I've taken the battery sim and ext sd card out and put it all back in only for the problem to persist.
If anyone could help me there's a donation and my thanks in it!
Much appreciated
Nick
tried to re flash another stock ROM?
If so, tried factory reset the phone after the flash?
As long as you can get to DL mode, you are good to keep on flashing till you are up & running.
And then you got this
Remember to update your kies and make sure you close it all up before flashing with odin. If you are in 4.0.4 beware of the brick bug.

Kies has never been installed on this computer but i did use the usb drivers mentioned in the soft brick recovery guide you linked. I used some information from the guide to flash this stock rom but i couldnt flash or wipe the partition because im unsure where to get the .PIT file required? i cant get past the boot animation so no factory reset possible and yes i can still get into download mode!

wow wow, leave pit files alone for now, they are nasty.
What stock ROM did you flash? 4.0.4 or 4.0.3?
You can factory reset via recovery mode.
Try installing kies anyway, it can't never hurt. Just make sure all applications are closed before you re-flash.
here's jb leak, might help:

Error (Status 0) on any ROM Flash.

New too this whole phone, but I've rooted & ROM'd the Kindle Fire (Gen 1.) Samsung Galaxy S3, LG Vortex, and a few other devices so I'm not stupid when it comes too this stuff.
I've never been a fan of CWM, but anyways I used the AIO Vibrant Toolbox too root it, then I added a recovery with the Custom ROM Button, selected the zip and it *Eventually* got me int CWMR v2.5.0.4, I downloaded c-Rom, and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2535547, I tried both but they each fail with
"Installing Update...
E: Error in /sdcard/ROM.zip
(Status 0)
Installation Aborted"
I wiped Dalvik, Factory Reset, Wiped Cache, eevrything. But nothing seems too have worked.
Same problem
Hi I'm currently having the same problem and I also have experience rooting other devices with no problem. I even re rooted the device from the beginning and still a no go. If anyone has any solution to our problems please reply thanks.
Bumping, any help available?
depends on what version of android your'e running, i'm assuming 2.2 since you just rooted it. so grab a cm7, cm 10.2, cm11 or any 4.4.2 rom and a 4.4.2 kernel as well. first flash cm7 and let it fully boot into the os, afterwards boot back into recovery and flash cm 10.2 same as before let it boot, now flash that 4.4.2 kernel and while in same recovery session choose "reboot recovery" option now go ahead and flash what ever kitkat rom you like...
Actually I rooted mine to stock eclair from 2.2. I wasn't sure if I needed to stay because all the guides showed to go to 2.1. It is currently rooted with stock rom and I haven't been able to get further than that.
