[q] can someone help please - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just brought a Samsung Galaxy tab10.1 GT-97510 16gb. And I have rooted the tablet but when trying to change to a custom rom the tablet just stays on the Samsung Galaxy tab 10.1 screen. I've tried like 3 roms and It's all the same can someone please help and tell me what I'm doing wrong thanks

Have you setup Clock Work Mod Recovery and took backup before trying this?
If not, Now flash to samsung's official stock ROM using odin flasher(sorry i lost that how-to guide in my bookmarks or may be deleted by mistake) see if it works, later setup CWM recovery, take backups and start playing with custom ROMs again.
Good luck
Sent from my GT-P7500

Yes I did I'm using CMW 5027 I've made a back up as well. did a full wipe I do have a problem when trying to wipe dalvik cache when I try to wipe it it says E: unknown volume for path [/sd-ext]

The /sd-ext error is normal, I think it's checking if the device has an external SD card and of course the tab does not. Which ROMs have you tried flashing? Have you tried leaving it for a long time to see if it boots up? I have heard that it can take up to 15 minutes on the first bootup.

Wait at least a half-hour for the first boot. It can take a very long time. Plug it in and walk away for a while.

I've also tired that as well I let it sit over night and It's still there. Roms like the BinDroid and Galaxy task boots up without say complete once I go to install the rom it loads the start of the work process then reboots

Does the tab boot if you restore the backup you made?

Yes the backup boots with no problem

I'd unroot and flash the stock recovery (i.e. put the tablet in the state it was when it came from the factory) then redo the rooting/CWR with ODIN. I'm guessing something went wrong when you flashed the CW recovery.

Have you encrypted your tab?

No how do I do that

Have you tried my method? So far so good it's gotten a good amount of people back to the recovery.

[Q] Rooted I717, constant reboots, no recovery, flashing stock ROM not working

I changed from an iPhone 4 in May to the Samsung Note. On my iPhone I would immediately jailbreak and install MyWi. In my research to do the same on the note I ran across a rooting tutorial for my device and followed the instructions http://www.androidauthority.com/galaxy-note-att-i717-root-without-increasing-flash-counter-61325/ (I am not positive, but I feel confident this is the one I followed). I installed Superuser and Titanium Backup, did a backup of ATT connection manager, then removed it. Tethering worked like a charm. This has worked and I had no issues until Friday June 14th.
On Friday, everytime I opened an app on my phone I would get a Force Close. I restarted the phone and watched as it repeatedly happened after every cycle. Believing that installing Droid VNC Server was the issue, the last app I had installed, I removed it successfully and included others I didn’t use. Upon reboot, I noticed the notification of App Updates and a missed call. Checked the application list and noticed that all of the apps I had just removed were still there. I have a ton of pics and videos and thought that I should back them up immediately before I deleted them, prepared for the worst. I was able to do that. I deleted them all, nothing in the gallery. When the phone crapped out again and rebooted, all apps and all pictures back.
I formatted the USB Storage, seemed to delete nothing and also showed the same amount of used space as before.
Time for a restore. I know now that the recovery partition is gone and so a Wipe/reset is fruitless. No problem. I know how to flash the rom. I used this method with Odin. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1506330
Everything seemed to work successfully, but upon reboot I get the same app updates notification and the same missed call notification. The same frozen state my phone was in when the issue started on Friday. WTH!
I have everything backed up. How do I get back to stock? I could care less about the counter. I just want my phone to be usable again.

did you try wiping Catche and Dav?
Wipe Catch > Wife Davlik > Fix Permision, then reboot ..
see what happens ..
Not a noob, but here is where i am lost
I booted in to recovery, chose to Wipe/Erase . I see no option to Wipe Davlik except for in SuperUser and there it is a paid option, not sure where to find Fix Permission and then reboot?
I am assuming these are all options for CWM. I attempted to put CWM on an SD card last night and install from ZIP, but Recovery does not seem to see the SD card.
Are these options that are available for CWM, if so I will push through until I get it to work, but I have had no luck to this point.

no need to go back to stock .
try reflashing whichever ROM you desire...
its always wise to follow every little STEP given by the DEV .
to wipe dav you go to advance and it should be there..
Sorry, still need assist

I have attempted to Flash ROMs I don't desire just to move forward. They all flash and pass in Odin but on reboot I still have my default screen. Unfortunately, I want to go back to stock. I have done plenty of research and need something more to push on to the next thing. I am looking at phone and there is not an Advanced option in recovery. I have read there are options in CWM but I am looking at what I believe is the stock recovery options.

after you are rooted ,
you should have nothing to do with Odin.
and also, if you were stuck on your phone trying to boot up, chances are you keep downloading a bad ROM..
happen to me before..a ROM that was suposed to be 192MB,
would finish on 158MB
someone else may be able to help you get back to stock ROM..i havent had the chance to ever wanna go back to stock so i wouldnt know for sure.
sorry and good luck .

Would you say this is a good tutorial to follow?
http://rootgalaxynote.com/galaxy-no...-on-att-galaxy-note-sgh-i717-belltelusrogers/
So, maybe I am a newb. I have followed the instructions to install CWM on my device and it even says it was successful. I am doing it from ODIN. See the file I downloaded here. Says it was successful but holding the volume up and then power button. NO CWM.
I am truly frustrated but I want my phone back. Can someone link me to the stupid people posts so I can get my phone working again?

You now have a custom recovery(according to Odin). The problem is, you're doing the wrong key combo as stated above. You can also go to the market and grab FJ's power tool. You can boot into recovery directly from the app. Good luck.
Certainly I am not this dumb..... am I

Still having issues. Here is the deal.
I have the phone in Download mode
https://www.dropbox.com/s/dnk6ekjqp9vddev/2012-06-19 19.40.01.jpg
I load the CWM Recovery in the PDA box. Start the flash, get a pass. All looks good to me.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/5q4hayf35mm26wr/odin-success.PNG
I immediately attempt to access CWM Recovery by holding the power, vol+ and vol- and still get the default recovery
https://www.dropbox.com/s/d176blydonlvrlu/2012-06-19 20.13.42.jpg
I am so confused as to what I am doing wrong.
Unfortunately those pics aren't loading for me. Try again with the pic of recovery and the file you're flashing. Thanks. If you still have stock recovery then maybe that's what you're flashing in error.
Try volume up + down and power button. When phone vibrates, release power button but keep holding volume buttons until you are in cwm.
I would use Odin to flash cwm touch recovery from pda, then load a rom via cwm. Using that method you don't even need to root because it's all done at bootloader level and root is built in to the custom rom you flash

[Q]Stucks at samsung logo

Hello, I've got a problem, this morning I tried to mod camera (NOTE 2) to get slow mo etc.
I used stock rom rooted and U used to do operation a root explorer. So it said on instruction to follow some kind of steps delete samsungcamera.apk file and change it to modded, place ilb(?) and second file to system directory.
Okay after that my camera has gone but it come up as a new icon but it doesn't worked. Then my phone rebooted...
And it worked, but after while I tried to reboot it again coz the icon dissapperead completely so I thought to reboot it and since then I can't turn on the phone because it still on the samsung flashing logo.
What I tried so far.
=Odin - restore to stock rom (three UK) says FAIL
=Wiped up data, system using factory reset
=Rerooted it
Still nothing.
Cheers guys, I am willing to even pay for solution...

I think maybe you've followed different instructions with me, yesterday I just flash it (the note 2 camera) with CWM and nothing is happened
So if you failed to restore stock ROM, maybe you can try any other custom ROM (for example ARHD v14 -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1797334). This ROM doesn't need ODIN, it uses CWM to flash it from your external/internal SD Card.
I don't know if this solution will work or not, but it is worth to give a try :angel:
Cheers mate, keep smiling :highfive:
still nothing ... Can't get any further than samsung logo... Black screen appears after music.

Hi I has a similar problem this morning after trying to root with Insecure Kernel. I solved it. Please refer to my thread post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1973035 - Hope it works for you as well :fingers-crossed:
After about 2 days I finally and completely solved my problem.
What I've done to achieve full boot
*format and wipe out of data on sdcard as well as external
*format of system (was quite dangerous)
*referred to wipe app and rom from second post
*unplug battery for bout 5 hours and to be fair that's what helped because I tried several roms (on zip) before as well as rom that I've got currently
Still don't know how come it affected what happened but who knows.
Just want to say big thanks to everyone who has replied and supported me. I do appreciate that.

You have wiped your system partition. In order to get your phone working again either download a ROM from your device's forums, or download a stock ROM from Sammobile and flash it using Odin.

Use Google, there is more than enough tutorials on how to flash using Odin/CWM/TWRP.
I did do a bit of Googling for you and found this, please do verify the MODEL of your phone is "SPH-L300" before using these files:

In you first post it sounds as if you did in fact wipe everything, including your then existing ROM. Best thing to have done at that point was to use adb to push a ROM to your phone, reboot back into recovery using adb and install the pushed ROM. Even if you wiped all content of any kind, you should be able to us adb to install factory img, stock ROM, etc.
P.S. all of the above is probably still an option- using adb to restore, get into bootloader etc.

[Q] GT P7500: Is it bricked or something?

Okay here`s the situation.
My GT-P7500 a.k.a p4 is having a problem. Whenever I boot up, it will freeze at the boot animation, and power off if not charging and go to the charging screen if is plugged. I was using SlimBean when I had the problem, flashed AOKP and still the same. Next, when I get to recovery, wiping data takes a looooooooooooong time and never finished (Seriously 3 hours and nothing). Wiping cache`s fine. Tried using TWRP but then I`m stuck on the TWRP Boot screen. I reverted back to CWM but still the same. Is it bricked or something? Is there any solution? I`m hoping for an answer ASAP. Thank you...

had the same issue on my p4wifi...it is a corrupted file.
1) you can odin a rom..this will wipe the data completely
or
2) try to flash the last rom you were successfully on..then wipe the sdcardthis will wipe the data completelyand cache..dalvik. Then try to boot it up.
If second option doesnt work( because of the dirty flash ). Then i would either use odin or push a rom to the device and do a clean install.
Just had a brain storm..you could use twrp file manager to delete files you dont need. Might get lucky and its something you downloaded recently. ( wasnt a twrp recovery when this happened to me )

Just for future reference..when you install a stock rom, like those from sammobile. It is usually needed to wipe data factory reset to get it to boot.
Sorry i didnt get back to you sooner..work is crazy, Lol
Glad you have it up...if you need any other help. Just post in my Q&A thread..I try to check it often.

Need some help with rooting.

So I have a Galaxy S7 Edge and I have been wanting to root for a while now. I've tried to a few times but it's always put me in the bootloop and/or won't boot at all. So I just manually factory reset my phone. (im on my 7th factory reset over the past few days)
The problem is that whenever I go into the TWRP recovery mode, my internal storage and everything else is at 0mb and I get the error that I cannot mount the storage. I've tried changing the file types to ext4 and ext2, but to no avail. I have also read that if you enable pin on start-up then it would work, but that didn't work either. I'm really stuck here and I'm starting to get a little annoyed, as you would.
I'd appreciate any help I can get. I'll provide you guys with any other relevant information. I just want to root my android.
(the first time I tried to root I used a S7 twrp file and it corrupt my system and that's when I first had to factory reset)
EDIT: I am trying to root using Magisk, just in case you guys ask. G935F.
Now whenever I use TWRP (latest one for hero2lte), it just goes into the bootloop. I'm really stuck here.
