[Q] Galaxy Tab 10.1 Stuck in Boot Loop - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone,
My Galaxy Tab 10.1 GT-P7500 is stuck in a boot loop which only shows "Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1" on screen. I've tried pressing the power button to power down the device, but the screen will just go blank for a while and then the "Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1" will show again. There is no way for me to go into download mode.
Any way to solve this problem?

I've tried and tried and finally got into download mode, used Odin to install a kernel. Everything runs OK, until it reboots. Then I see the logo again for awhile, suddenly it powers off, then unable to switch on anymore. I think the battery is dead, will try later after it is charged up.

Nobody seems to care about the issue I've face.
Anyways, been trying out all the solutions that I can find all around XDA, it turns out only "restocking" can solve my problem.
Re-flashed my tablet following the guide at Team Overcome's site.

Maybe these instructions will help
a while ago i got my tablet stuck in bootloop... after a lot of research... i fixed it and put the step by step here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1329261
Let me know if it helps!

You should get a USB jig. It'll jump you into download mode. Unless that tablet doesn't use the mini usb... Which it might not. If you have a custom recovery on there, then wipe data, then install a new ROM

Hi - will a "USB jig " help me with my problem, or do you have any Suggestions?
I was flashing stock 4.0.4 ICS via Odin and unfortunately I walked away from my computer for a quick minute ... and my 3 year decided to unplug the tablet. I previously had CWM v.5???? - now I can see the download screen, then get to the OS warning screen.
Then when it says to hit volume up to continue and down to cancel ... I hit volume up and it goes into bootloop and when I hit down it goes into download load but Odin doesn't recognize it.
Note : I have to hit the opposite volume to even get into download mode.
Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated.

if im not wrong you can restore with kies, emergency firmware ....... or something like that, did you try?

[Q] Galaxy Tab 10.1 Boot Loop! How do I fix it?

I have the 32 GB retail model of the galaxy tab 10.1 and it was working perfectly and I had no problems until I tried to boot it up today. It gets stuck between the Samsung animation and the Samsung logo. I'm not very great with fixing these kinds of things so could someone walk me through it?

what was the last update you did to your tab? any app or tweak?
I once had a similar problem but doing a wipe/factory reset from the recovery menu seemed to fix it for me and I've had no problems since.
Ok thanks, I just did a factory reset and now its back to normal.
How do you do a Factory Wipe and reset? I cannot get mine to take the ClockworkMod Recovery.... I have tried many times to install it and Odin says that it was successful but when I try to boot into the CWM... All I get is the USB fastboot or Odin again... any suggestions? I am trying to fix my Boot Loop issues on Galaxy Tab 10.1

If you have fastboot that means your tab is Google I/O tab. So i believe the method may be different to install CWM for you. Google it
Hi guys! Can you give me a tip? Since yesterday my tab got caught in a boot loop. Didn't made any changes, just went into it. I have rooted it a long time ago. I can't get into recovery mode by holding power+up. All I can get it the download mode that first says "waiting for usb cable" and if I connect it to the PC it goes to "press the [START] of Odin3". Do I need to try the fastboot method and reset it to factory details? I've being trying to do that but no devices were listed... Or do I need to reflash something with oding again? Please, just give me a tip.

Hey nightrave
I got caught in a bootloop the other day after updating to 3.2 from 3.1, my tab was rooted and running the starburst ROM. When I rebooted it it keeped getting stuck on the logo screen, and my device wasn't being recognized when I plugged it into my PC. I found a file online for the stock 3.1 firmware and flashed it using Odin and it got it out of the boot loop. If you can't go into CWM to flash a rom or do a recovery I would try using ODIN to flash the firmware your device was on. I ended up flashing the firmware for 3.2 the same way and the Galaxy Task 10 ROM. Let me know if that helps
app not working
i downloaded an app and it was working fine for a few days and now when i go use it i get an error msg and it kicks me out of the app. ive deleted and reinstalled app a few times but it still does it. what do i do?
Did u try goin on rom manager and clicking fix permissions.. its suppose to fix any force close issues, not sure if that would work.
I was able to fix my issue by installing a 3.2 rom. My tablet is not bricked anymore
Getting a com.android.phone error now but i'm trying to figure it out.

[Q] Please help. PHONE BRICKED!!

Hi guys, hoping someone can shed a little bit of light on my issue.
Rooted my phone- all went fine!.
Went to install CWM and all i got was the e3 recover telling me:
Failed to verify signature.
Instillation failed.
So after a little bit of messing about i decided to just leave it and continue on with my day. My phone then ran out of battery. I put it on charge without turning it on and came to find the phone in recovery mode with a fully working version of Clockwork MOD, suprising to say the least. I rebooted the phone and then tried to reboot back into recovery mode, and since then my phone wont load normally or into recovery past the samsung logo.
I dont know what to do because although my phone will go into download mode, it will not work with ODIN, i simply get the message "failed to open serial port."
So i have a phone that wont load recovery, wont load normally, and wont let me install kernals etc through ODIN, please someone help me!
Any help would be great, thanks people.
Hi
I'm new here & have been reading many threads in preparation before rooting my phone.
Its sounds like your phone is stuck in a boot loop, if so read this tread & it should help you out. (sorry if i got it wrong)

peace
The above solution will not work for you, because your have no recovery.
How did you root your phone? To summarize:
1. You rooted your phone.
2. You tried flashing CWM (why?)
3. Flashing failed and you have no recovery anymore?
4. Odin does not recognize your phone anymore.
Correct?
Try a different USB cable to make sure it isn't the cable.
Have you stopped kies on your computer before running odin?

I had the same problem get into Cwm the way you'd get into normal Android recovery so hold vol up + home + power then when the boot screen pops up let go for a millisecond then repush vol up + home + power
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
Your phones only bricked if it wont turn on mate. Relax as its most likely fixable. Do as others have suggested and disable kies as its a pain in the backside. Kies doesnt like odin and will crap it up. Install a kernel like chainfires; get into cwm and wipe everything. Dalvik, cache, system. Get a usb jig off ebay for gs2 if you can as thats helped me out. I only use Siyahs kernel or Chainfires as they are the most stable. Good luck.

[Q] Vibrant dead after fail update

Hi to everyone! Is my first thread here. I have a Samsung Vibrant SGH-T959 and try to update using Odin3 v1.85. Everything go well but at end apear Fail in Odin and the phone turn off. I think the phone go to restart but never turn on again and I can't turn on now. I press power botton and no response. I try to put it in download mode or recovery mode and I can't. What is next? I order a JIG, but a friend told me that no correct my problem.
Keep trying to get in recovery. Gb uses different keys if that was what you were updating too.

S2 GT-I9100G dead, completely dead!

Hello folks,
I've a friend who's not a Technical person, however, he tried what he shouldn't have and now he has a totally dead S2.
The problems:
1. Phone doesn't switch on, nor does it goes to download or recovery mode - I tried it all.
2. When I connect a charger or usb - It does start showing the battery icon and while connected to the cable, if I turn it on it stays at the Samsung logo forever.
3. Since I don't know how to even get it to download mode, I'm unable to go any further.
What he did:
1. Trying to upgrade to JB, I think he messed up with the kernel by uploading one which may not be compatible as I've heard S2 has different variants. (He loaded Siyah 4.2)
2. Before doing this, he had connected to ODIN and was trying to load the official JB file but it always got stuck on one of the steps and that's when his phone got a bit sick - it would show "Please connect to KIES and try a recovery" kind of message. And this led him to do Step 1, which he shouldn't have.
I read a lot of posts, tried a lot of things but the phone never goes to download mode. And I've no clue how to try anything else?
So experts, I need your help here and I want to know if this phone will start at all? Can we somehow get it to work? If not at home, can the people at Samsung flash it or something?
Please help. Lots of thanks already!

if u have any mini usb cable cut it and peel of the skin and short the the 4th and 5th pin with 300k resistor or 100k*3 resistor and connect to mobile u will directly goto the download mode remove this pin and connect pc in odin mode and flash first with ics rom and if it is success and then try jelly bean try good luck
I have the same problem.
Today i tried fixing a bricked galaxy s2(yellow triangle with exclamation mark on boot) by reinstalling the stock firmware with odin and a pit file.
During the install i got stuck at NAND write start.So i took the battery out to get out of download mode and put it back in.When i tried going to download mode,it wouldn't start,charge,boot,anything!it's like it's completly dead.
Is there any other way to go to download mode without using a JIG?

Sorry to say this mate......you shoulda read some threads.....
If you had, you'd have realised.....
1) you start messing with pit files as a LAST resort
2) you NEVER pull a battery during an odin flash
3) when you saw the failure of 'nand write start' there was still the possibility to recover your phone....right up to the point when you pulled the battery.......
So now you have no recovery mode, no download mode and no on screen indication when you plug the charger in.....
Don't bother with the jig.....it's a long shot under the best of circumstances.....
There Is one thing you could try.....
Take the battery out. Press the vol down, power and home keys simultaneously......and WHILE holding the keys.....reinsert the battery....you will probably need help to do it.
It *might* kickstart the phone into download mode.....or.......it might not.
If it fails.....then Samsung warranty repair is realistically your only option.....Don't mention XDA or rooting or custom roms or odin or anything like that. Play dumb....say you were updating with kies, the phone switched off and wouldn't turn on again.......

Thanks for you answer!Will a JTAG work?If i can find one?The phone is off the warranty.
The way I see it is that at the moment, you own a paperweight.....so best to *try* the cheaper options first....jtagging being the cheapest......
If that doesn't sort it....you have 2 options.....
1) replace the mainboard
2) buy an entirely new phone.....
Basically whichever option you choose from now on will have *some* financial cost........

A 3rd option is to buy a 2nd hand phone with maybe a cracked screen,and use the board from that.

Galaxy Note 10.1 stuck on "Samsung Galaxy Note" screen

Dear all.
First of all, thanks for your attention, I really appreciate.
I have a GNote 10.1 Wi-Fi version (N8013) with stock Android 4.1.
My S-Pen was getting me crazy, because I was not able to use it correctly on the edges of the device. I tried an app that supposed to reset the alignment, but I did not work, so I googled and found that the only way to fix it was "factory reseting" the tablet.
So, I installed the TeamWin recovery and backed up my data. After that I hit the button "reboot". But before rebooting, the recovery screen "told me" that I was not rooted and "asked" if I would like to install SuperSU to get root access. I checked YES and rebooted.
After that I got stucked at the "Samsung Galaxy Note" screen (see attached file).
I've tried to switch off the note, but the screen goes off for one second and it lights up again at the same screen.
If I plug the USB cable and try to switch it off, the note goes to the battery charging screen. If I remove the USB and push the power button again, the tablet gets back to the "Samsung Galaxy Note" screen.
Odin seems to "connect" with the tablet.
I can enter both the download mode and the recovery mode (not the teamwin recovery).
Attached pictures of what I get.
Any sugestions?
Thanks!!!
Everything is ok now
Dear all,
Hope I can help you if you have a problem similar to mine.
I remembered that a PC with no OS stops on some screen, but everything else works, just as what was happening with my note.
I tought that I might have wiped more things than I should, so, the only thing I had to do was to restore the backup that I had.
To do this I should reinstall the TWRP and the only way was via Odin.
Solved the problem this way:
1. Downloaded the Odin (http://techbeasts.com/2013/08/08/download-odin-pc-latest-version-v-3-07/)
2. Downloaded the TWRP file (http://techerrata.com/get/twrp2/p4noterf/openrecovery-twrp-2.6.1.0-p4notewifi.tar)
3. Connected the Galaxy Note to my PC using the USB cable
4. Entered the "download mode"
5. Loaded the file from step 2 into the tablet using Odin
6. Rebooted the tablet
7. Entered the recovery mode (TWRP was working)
8. Restored the backup that I had
9. Rebooted again
Did the dance of victory!!!
I am so glad to have my device back.
Regards

My Note 10.1 2014 Edition is stuck on the tablet title screen, not sure if its in reboot mode it returns to this screen if I try to shut it off... basically Its frozen, and when I try to shut it off it goes away a few seconds and comes back. This happened after I rooted with KingRoot, and tried to Flash a ROM, Im a complete Noob and should have done my homework... but I didnt. I see everyone suggesting odin and going into download mode... I can get to download mode but I am using a macbook pro, and there are very little options to use odin, I tried Jodin3... and Heimdall... no luck...

HELP stuck on Samsung screen
I didn't any root or install a different firmware to mine.
But after charging it I removed the cable and it rebooted and got stuck on the Samsung screen. I can only access to Download mode. I didn't have any Recovery mode installed, and now I can't install one successfully via Odin...
I tried to install a new firmware... a recovery mode... nothing is working...
Please I need HELP...
@ agelcer: Was your tablet rooted?
Hello. I havea similar problem with my note 2 phone. It will not get past the
samsung screen. My cpu knowledge is very limited. Are you open to accepting payment for attempting to fix my cell phone? All I want is the pictures off of it if that is all you can do to it. Pleass email me at [email protected] if you or anyone you know can help. Thanks....Jay
Same thing is happening to mine. I tried Odin but after the download the srceen goes black and then comes back to the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 screen.
Hello folks.
Same problem here with a n8000.
It had the stock unrooted rom probably JellyBean.
Can only access Download Mode, nothing else.
I get connection to Odin, tried to flash original firmware, 4 file firmware, re-partition with pit file, flash a custom recovery, all seem to pass through but nothing changes, still stuck on 'Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1' screen, never moves on to boot animation and still can't access Recovery Mode.
However, something else I triy with Odin and it FAILS is ticking 'Nand Erase All'. It won't let me erase nand.
Could this mean some kind of memory corruption?
Does it have anything to do with EMMC?
If it does, is there a possible way to fix without replacing the hardware?
What else can I try before giving up?
It would be nice if other users who report this problem attempt to Nand Erase All and see if it also FAILS..
Thanks alot and sorry for the long post.
Edit: after posting I found this which is PROBABLY THE SOLUTION for me.
And here is another topic on this issue.

I assumed from my searches the solution would be JTAG or replace the EMMC.
Since I don't have the resources for any of those, I just abandoned it to the dust and rust..

I'm not very clear about bootloader upgrading, but I guess it was included in the 4 file firmware I tried flashing and it said 'success' but nothing changed..
I think it ain't just a softbrick since I can't erase nand..
What's your background, osirisx69?
This happened to ours as well just today. Unplugged it rebooted it and it's stuck. Can only access the Odin mode.
