Ok guess im almost to the point of offering a reward for help getting this straightened out for me...
I have a US Cellular branded LTE Tab 10.1 running 3.2
I rooted the tab and flashed the wrong CWM via rom manager.
I have gone back and flashed about every recovery i could find that claims to fix my issue or claims to be the correct version for a LTE tab.
with each flash via odin i get one of the two issues..
1) rolling recovery
2) black recovery (nothing there)
The model of my tab is SCH-I905
I considered flashing the stock odin file for the Verizon tab but im afraid that might mess something up due to this one being a US Cellular tab.
Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

So I've usually only dealt with the rooting/romming scene for Motorola, and I need some help.
I bought a Galaxy Tab P7510 WIFI only off Craigslist. It's the Google I/O version. It was sold to me as a Galaxy Tab 2, but now I'm under the impression that the P7510 is a Galaxy Tab 1 (which I have no problem with).
- It came with what I believe was CM10 installed.
- After seeing that the Tab 2 had the JB OTA released I downloaded the applicable firmware (based on P7510) and used Mobil Odin Pro to get back to stock (thinking I would be able to OTA to JB still thinking this was a Tab 2).
- I managed to get that far and get to stock so at this point I looked for the OTA in system updates and finally realized hey this isn't a Tab 2 because ICS says up to date, so now I want to go back to JB, but maybe in the form of SlimBean.
- I downloaded CWM to flash custom recovery, used Odin via PC and flashed. All went well and I got the green "Pass".
- So at this point I know I'm close, I just need to boot into recovery, do my wipes, and flash the SlimBean zip and I'm done. But the problem is the Tab won't boot into recovery. I tried power + volume up, i tried power + volume down, i tried power + both volumes but I get nothing. Is this a common easily dealt with issue? Everything on the Tab is stock, rooted, with CWM supposedly flashed, but I just can't boot into recovery...
I'm surprised I got this far without asking for help, but at this point anything is appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Hi I am a noob to droids and I rooted my tab and all was well at first. I knew that I could not put a custom rom on it or get a custom recovery however I thought I would be able to install a theme on it. After I installed it it said to reboot and I did and It was getting stuck on the atnt logo. I tried going into recovery mode and doing a factory reset and still the same result. I heard that odin can restore samsung devices I just dont know how to get the firmware for my tablet I looked everywhere and what to do. If someone could please help me it would be most appreciated the device was on jellybean 4.2.1 I believe.
i really want to get pacman rom for my samsung galaxy s2 sgh i757 (bell version) but i can't find the file of the rom to download... the closest version i could find is for the i777. is it okay if i flash that onto my phone? or will it magically turn my phone to a paperweight. and also my samsung can never get into recovery mode. EVER. even if i use a app to reboot into recovery. and i'm pretty sure i did everything correct except for the fact that i think i need to update but rom manager says my device isn't supported. thanks for helping out a newb! help much appreciated.
If you flash a ROM meant for another device, you will brick your device. Never do this. Ever.
So I am trying to repair someones Galaxy Tab 10.1, this one came from Videotron, a provider in Quebec Canada. Unfortunately I cannot for the life of me find the stock firmware for it. I've tried several others in the GT-P7500 range but I just get stuck on boot.
The complete model is P7500W4VTR (not one google result).
Does anyone have any idea what I can flash to this thing that won't result in a soft-brick?
Thanks
If you don't want to go back to stock, maybe you can flash twrp and install CM? If successful, your phone will revive as well.
so I eneded up installing crdroid successfully on an old S III i747 i had lying around following
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...-can-i747-m-compiled-by-alexenferman.4021787/ and about a hundred different threads on the internet but I got there and it worked but t-mobile wifi calling wouldnt so i put it aside. now att is offering a crazy deal to swap almost any samsung phone including the S III for an S22. so now i'm interested in returning it to stock rom. I thought it would be much easier , using odin and a factory rom but every time i use odin it starts to init the flash and they promptly stops. hard to tell whats wrong. i suspect some of the many things I had to do to get crdroid on there is making it sad. any thoughts on getting this back to factory would be appreciated.
right now i have both TWRP and CRDROID installed and its still working fine. i dont know if the newer kernel/filesystem crdroid is using is confusing odin version that is expecting much older kernel and layout. i THOUGHT odin would ignore all that but at this point I can't tell what odin is annoyed at. from what i can tell the error I'm getting can be caused by any number of things.
i can mount my phone in windows explorer so I think all the drivers and usb stuff is working.
some notes about my current state:
crdroidAndroid-7.1.2-20200102-d2att-v3.8.9, android 7.1.2, kernel 3.4.112
tried using odin 3.04 and 3.13.3, using I747UCDLK3_I747ATTDLK3_ATT
odin log shows
checking md5 successfully

i got this sorted. turns out i had version NJ1 last installed so thats what modem/bootloader etc were at.
since I had TWRP installed I found stock files with root here
Rooted UCUFNJ2 Stock ROM
The development for the AT&T I747 has been discontinued by the developer. Thank you for your support. STOCK NJ2 Thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3-att/development/rom-d2att-ucufnj2-stock-rom-deodex-t3183267 Stock rooted...

i was able to install the UCUFNJ1 file over the garbage i had. i then proceeded to wipe everything i could. i thought it was hanging on boot but i think i was just impatient. after 4 spins the att logo stops but its continuing to start fresh. not realizing this i ended up installing the stock recovery from TWRP so I could do a stock wipe. I was planning on doing this anyway. After that and after waiting long enough device booted to stock , i even tested it with my tmobile sim and confirmed i was talking to the network. after that wiped it again. the download boot still shows custom/warrenty bit 1. i started trying to good with triangle away but most posts still say it wont fix that in knox firmwares and I suspect att will be throwing this in the trash anyway. hopefully the drones that are paid to issue refunds for the new samsung which claims you can send in a galaxy SIII for wont care as long as it boots stock and works. guess we'll see. i know it was a long time ago but i cant thank enewman17 enough. all his work and files are still hosted here and enabled me to get this done. i hope whereever he is he's having a great day.
