Friends,
I tried to follow the instructions given in a web page to complete the flashing of new firmware for my Galaxy Tab 10.1 wifi. When I used the md5 file and pressed start, after some time the flash failed and the tab power turned off.
I also downloaded the actual latest firmware file named P7510UEKMM_XABKMM_USA_Android_3.2 and tried to use the md5 file in this one and this also failed.
And there were instructions like the below but I could not find anywhere those md5 files.
Click BOOTLOADER button and select: BOOTLOADER_P7510xxxxx_CL317542.tar.md5
Click PDA button and select: CODE_P7510xxxxx_CL317542_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.m d5
Click CSC button and select: CSC_P7510Oxxxxx.tar.md5
Kindly help to resolve the problem and to flash the right firmware using right procedure.
Thanks very much.

Am awaiting help from experts please..
PFA screenshot of the error happened when it failed to flash.
pls help out
Am awaiting help please.. tab is just unusable now.. experts.. pls help.
Can you get into download mode? If so then go here:
www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&t=3&o=1#osa
Download the rom for your tab, unzip it (if it wants a password is either samfirmware.com or samsung-firmwares.com) and put the extracted file (either it will be a .md5 or a .tar file) to the PDA section and flash!
Report back any problem you might have.
EDIT: What is the site that you got your instructions from?

ROM?
@Panos - Thanks
I downloaded from a different site tsar3000.com but they are talking about many md5 files which were not there in the downloader.
I tried again with another site androiddevices.com but that also did not help.
I will try downloading the zip file for USA from the site you have mentioned and report back issues if any.
BTW - will this zip file contain the ROM file.. not sure what this ROM file mean? and should I unzip or expand the md5 file?
Kindly advice.
Just unzip the file you will download and you will have a file with a .tar or .mr5 extension. Use this file "as is" on the PDA section of odin, just like melodystyle2003 said! This is the rom file you ask for. Rom and firmware is the same thing.

Yes inside zip file you ve downloaded you ll see a. MD5 file, around ~500mb or more. This file is the Rom.
Connect to pc, tablet in download mode, select pda on Odin1.85 program, choose this Md5 file, and press start. After 2'06" your tablet will reboot itself and Odin1 should be turned green showing OK or Ready. That's it!

I second that!
Voila
WoW - Awesome.. THANKYOU VERY MUCH..
It worked. I wiped out the data and rebooted the tab.. It worked.
Is there any next steps I should follow? How to customize it to self (just like Apple Id in iPAD)?
Kindly advice.
Glad you made it work again!
As for setup just follow welcome instructions of Android system, are specific and easy to follow. For sure you ll need a Google account if you have not already.

Odin3 v1.85 - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Wifi - 32 GB - GT-P7510 Restore Help Please?
Hi please help!
I have:

When I run Odin (as admin), I choose PDA, and select the MD5 file and click Start. It errors out.
Here are the messages when Re-Partition & F. Reset Time are unchecked:

Here are the specific steps I take:
I reboot the tablet. (It goes straight into Download mode by itself because something is screwed up.)
I plug the USB cable into the tablet and the computer. (If it matters, i'm using Win8.1.)
I right-click and run Odin as admin. (The Message on Odin shows "Added!!" because it connected to the tablet.)
I click on PDA, and pick the MD5 file. (It's in the Downloads folder and not buried deep in some long folder path if that matters.)
I made sure Re-Partition & F. Reset Time were unchecked.
I click on Start.
On the tablet, a progress bar shows, but it does not look to move passed the initial percentage of color it shows and it shows 3 new lines in red:

It's not under warranty so taking it to Samsung or whatever is not really going to help me. My wife bought this for me a few years ago now. I rooted it about a month back w/o any issue. (no custom rom or anything used) A month later, I was browsing on it and it froze. I held down power to reboot and it never booted back into Android. I have a feeling it ran out of space. I don't think it's letting me write anything to fix whatever the issue is. I am ok with wiping all data (prefer that at this point). I have a feeling it's not writing to the existing partition properly based on the error messages. Is it possible Flashing is locked? If so, how can I unlock it? If not, how can I wipe and low-level format this thing!?
There are so many bad links and potentially wrong files out there. If someone can save/create the correct files from their GT-P7510, I would appreciate it.
E.g.
PIT
BOOTLOADER
PDA
PHONE
CSC
..and whatever check boxes should or should not be checked.
Any suggestions or ideas would help. Please help!?
Thank you in advance.

Hey guys
I got the notification that a new update is available for my stock GT-I9300 (Vodafone New Zealand) a few days ago. When I clicked on install it complained because I was on mobile data and so I decided to wait until I am at home. But when I got within range of a wifi it must have automatically downloaded and installed the update, because the next time I pulled the device out of my pocket it was stuck at the initial boot screen.
I have since tried to do a firmware recovery through Kies, which downloaded the firmware and then failed to install it saying that it does not know the device or something along those lines (I unfortunately did not save a screenshot of the exact message). Then I tried Odin, which simply fails with the log output below. I know that this is a ROM for the UK, but I haven't found a ROM for NZ yet and thought that it might work anyway.
The status printed when I go into the recovery mode is a bit strange:
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME:
CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: No
CURRENT BINARY: Samsung Official
SYSTEM STATUS: Custom
Why is there no product name and why is the system status "custom"? I have only had the phone for three weeks and I have not rooted or flashed it yet.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated

I am trying to install the original firmware through Odin, but I always get the error message shown at the end of my original post. When I try it a second time directly after it failed, then it does not complain about the PIT but instead fails to connect to the COM port:

<ID:0/011> Can't open the serial(COM) port.

I have gone through the process of taking out the battery, reinserting it, going into download mode, connecting it to all USB ports on my laptop and trying to flash several times now, always with the same result
I am currently downloading another ROM (I9300XXALF6_I9300ITVALF1_ITV). Maybe that'll work...?

Doesn't look like your computer found your phone, remove/reinstall the USB drivers. You can use KIES, click troubleshoot connection, it will reinstall them.
Hope that helps,
-CC
P.S> Make sure ODIN is not open when you run KIES and make sure KIES isn't open when you run ODIN.

Odin says "<ID:0/011> Added!!" (or some other port of course) whenever I connect the phone, doesn't that mean that it detected the phone?
I actually did the troubleshoot connection in Kies yesterday and it reinstalled the driver. I have since removed Kies (not the driver) from my computer, as I thought that this might be the reason why Odin fails.
Ok I am getting really desperate, I have spent a large part of the weekend trying to get this to work and still no luck. Any further suggestions would be highly appreciated
I have re-installed the USB driver a few times now and Kies is not installed to make sure that there are no conflicts between ODIN/Kies. I have also found a ROM for Vodafone NZ (I9300XXALE8_I9300VNZALE4_VNZ) which is where I got the phone.
ODIN detects when I plug the phone into my computer, but fails with the following:
<ID:0/011> Get PIT for mapping..
<ID:0/011>
<ID:0/011> There is no PIT partition.
<ID:0/011> Added!!
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
What is the cause for this error and do I need a PIT file and do a re-partition to fix it?
Is it normal that when in download mode, the product name shown on the phone screen is empty?
Thanks!
Your partition table is corrupted. No point trying to fix.
Quickly send to samsung to reflash your phone.
So there is no way I can fix this myself (without risking to make things worse)?
I am not a happy Samsung customer right now, all this time wasted because I installed an official over the air update and who knows how long it'll take to get it fixed...
Thanks for your replies.

You are in a position now where further repairs by yourself are even more likely to end up with no warranty .
Phone broke during official update return under warranty .
Flashing other firmwares risks invalidating warranty .

Dear all there is a good news for all of you about SIII product name blank now it can be consider under warranty as Samsung policy.
Hello everybody!
First of all, I'm not sure about my english skills...please have mercy on me :fingers-crossed:
Here I go:
I got my S3 in August/Sept with a T-Mobile Branding. My first action was getting it rootet and flashed with an official Samsung Rom just to get rid of the branding.
Two days ago I woke up to my charging S3 only showing the "Samsung..." Bootlogo. Removed the battery, nothing changed. Tried the Volume up-HomeButton-PowerButton Combo and it only resulted in a blinking logo (the logo disappears for a few seconds). The only thing I have access to is the Download-Mode.
What I tried since then:
Flashing a new one-part-rom with Odin, this was the result:
<ID:0/003> Added!!
<OSM> Enter CS for MD5..
<OSM> Check MD5.. Do not unplug the cable..

<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
Same with a three-part-rom.
Then I tried to downgrade the bootloader with ADB. But I don't get the drivers (Universal-Naked-Drivers) running. The S3 shows up as "unknown device" at the device manager but it doesn't want to be updated with the right drivers. PdaNet also refused to install USB-Drivers.
It's like they don't recognize the S3.. Perhaps I don't have USB-Debugging enabled? I'm not sure about this, because this brick just happened from one day to another.
I installed and uninstalled the "normal Samsung USB-Driver for mobile phones" often while trying to get the other drivers running. When installed, the S3 showed up in the device manager as one of the USB-Controllers.
Installed Kies for a factory reset but it didn't recognize the S3..
This shows up in Download-Mode:
ODIN*MODE
PRODUCT NAME: GT-I9300
CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: Yes (3 counts)
CURRENT BINARY: Custom
SYSTEM STATUS: Custom
I guess it's no sudden death because it shows the product name? Also I have no idea why it has three flash counts, I just flashed it once seven month ago.
Since I never updated to Jelly Bean the S3 was running on ICS 4.0.4
Edit:
Next steps I tried:
Flashing with an older version of Odin (v.1.85) But also failed at <ID:0/003> Complete(Write) operation failed
Flashing CF-Root v.6.4 to get the recovery mode back. Failed at <ID:0/003> Complete(Write) operation failed
Flashing Resurrection Odin CheckRom EvoHD v.4. Failed at <ID:0/003> Complete(Write) operation failed
Repartition with 20120329.pit and mx.pit. Failed at <ID:0/003> Complete(Write) operation failed
I'd still appreciate any kind of help or feedback!
It sounds like partial nand failure or simple partition corruption. Search here in q&a for solutions to repartition, but if that fails then your nand is probably toast.
try flashing a pit file
not sure if it will help but..
connect it to computer..when it fails to install drivers..Turn off and Pull battery out for few secs restart..
sometimes this helps to reinstall drivers..not sure in your case of a bootloop though?
Thanks for your answers!
I tried to repartition with a PIT-File but it didn't work.
At first I tried the GT-I9300_mx_20120329.pit with this 3-part-rom:
CODE_I9300XXALE8_554452_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5 is valid.
MODEM_I9300XXLE8_REV02_REV04_CL1145430.tar.md5 is valid.
CSC_OJV_I9300OJVALE7_CL547448_REV00_user_low_noship.tar.md5 is valid.
But the same error appeared.. also the error appeared so fast I don't think there happened a repartition at all?

MODEM_I9300XXLEF_REV02_REV04_CL1147871.tar.md5 is valid.
CSC_OXF_I9300OXFALEA_613742_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5 is valid.
With the same result...
It's always the same error, again and again...
Any further ideas?
you are done
Only two answers one wrong PIT or partition damaged .
Two Nand damaged see how much will a new motherboard cost .

Thanks again!
With the GT-I9300_mx_20120220.pit-File I got my S3 responding for the first time since it died. It showed the blue loading-bar, but it didn't move at all and Odin stopped at <ID:0/004> NAND Write Start!!
Tried this rescue-version http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30087735&postcount=6 with mx.pit but of course it didn't work..
you are done

seems like you're right, unfortunately..
But if you have ANY idea what I could try, please post it.
Are you sure it's a NAND damage or could it be a bootloader problem? I found this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1916796 but I don't understand what they are talking about yet.
Update:
I couldn't find a solution and send it to a Samsung repair service and it was repaired under warranty. Don't know why exactly..they didn't need to because of my flash-counter. There was a letter in the package that said the mainboard was replaced and that's all!
Anyways, thanks for the help!
Can be closed!

I had a similar problem, my phone just froze in the middle of a phone call, had to pull out battery, and when i tried to turn it on, it wouldn't pass the second "SAMSUNG" logo, just stayed there forever, with the blue light (Official JB 4.1.2 - not rooted)... Anyway, after 3 days of trying, downloaded bunch of firmwares, but all of them gave me the infamous "Complete(Write) operation failed". This is how I MANAGED to revive my i9300 16Gb Int:
1.Open ODIN, load ONLY the pit file corresponding to your phone (In my case i9300 16Gb Int'l - GT-I9300_mx_20120220.pit), check "Repartition" and "F.Reset Time" and hit "Start".
- If this step goes OK (All threads completed. (succeed 1 / failed 0))
2. Click on the "Reset" button in Odin (or close and re-open it), in PDA select "recovery-cwm-touch-6.0.1.2-i9300.tar", make sure only "F.Reset Time" and "Auto Reboot" are checked, and flash it. If everything goes OK, you should now have CWM instead of Stock recovery.
3. Take any microSD card, any size, and put THIS file on the root of the microSD using a card reader or whatever you prefer - but be careful, copy the zip as it is - do not unzip it.
4. Insert the memory card in the phone, enter recovery*, and select "Install zip from External Storage" and choose the file you put on the root of the card (by the way, it's a 4.0.4 downgrade bootloader), it should flash in a second, the phone will restart, and that's it!
5. Download and flash 4.0.4 Stock FW using Odin (i used "I9300XXBLH1_OXEBLF1.zip"), everything should go OK, and the phone will be bootable again.
*(my phone didn't wanted to enter recovery the old fashioned way using 3-button combo, but i managed to enter recovery from charging mode, by connecting the charger on a switched off phone, and as soon it starts charging press Vol Up + Home + Power, and when the FIRST Logo (Galaxy S III GT-I9300) appears, let go of the power button, keep pressing the Vol Up + Home, and it enters recovery).

1.Open ODIN, load ONLY the pit file corresponding to your phone (In my case i9300 16Gb Int'l - GT-I9300_mx_20120220.pit), check "Repartition" and "F.Reset Time" and hit "Start".
- If this step goes OK (All threads completed. (succeed 1 / failed 0))

Did you give it the pit file? Pit is really a last resort AFTER you've ruled out sending for repair

Correct PIT file ??? for your phone ??
Flashing PIT 99% kill the phone .
You require a service centre .
Warranty will depend upon their report .

Where can you download these 16, 32 or 64 .pit files ? I couldn't find them anywhere ...
If you start playing with PIT files you will end up with a dead phone and at best have to buy a new motherboard .
They might be found on sammobile

Thanks for the lead, I will look for them on Sammobile.
But Please, this is the only answer I could reald along my searches "do not mess with .pit file". That does not answers the "where" and "which file" questions. I think people know playing with .pit files is touchy and they have a reason to ask for it.Stop being their mother and just answer the question accurately !

Your sense of entitlement is awe inspiring, if you searched and read you would find many people who flashed pit files to fix just a soft brick and then had to pay for a new motherboard.
So no, we won't help people wreck their phones.

How it started:
A pop message appears asking to format the phone, I accidentally hit okay, after 10 seconds I realized it, I immediately stopped the process by hitting the back button which caused my phone to go blank screen and freeze. so I pressed and hold power button, and the phone shuts off turns back on then it get stuck on the Samsung Logo/screen and won't go through no matter how long I wait.
So with that said I may have corrupted my Operating System so I went online to try to look for solutions to recover my Note.

okay before i go further if you look at my attachment
first box says "MODEM"
is this normal?
i saw a vid on youtube shows "SYSTEM"
I have read your guide and installed the latest samsung USB driver
I rebooted my computer opened ODIN as admin
followed instructions and i am back to my original post
i think it has something to do with the fact mine shows "MODEM"
this is what i'm talking about.
the difference is on this pic it shows "SYSTEM"
while mine says "MODEM"
does that mean my phone can no longer be recovered?
Am I missing something here? seems like I have a more technical issue/problem other than common Odin problems.
any help would be appreciated.

Are you using the same .tar everytime?
Try another package and see what happens.
Or... just flash a twrp.tar and just flash a custom Rom on that thing.

i'll download an older version (ice cream sandwich)
i have not tried twrp.tar nor custom ROM
can you point me to a link to DL it?
If another stock package doesn't work here's Twrp
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1647575
Then you put a custom Rom of your choice I your sdcard and flash that within recovery.

are you running Odin as admin?
as long as you can still get into download mode and have odin recognize you, you are in good shape. Dont do something to put yourself in qualcomm download mode. Else, you will be sending your phone to be jtagged. . .
In my guide it mentioned trying different cables and cleaning the usb port.
Have you taken those steps?

I Hard Bricked Galaxy note i7i7
Hello
I was flashing a kernel in order for this jellybam rom to work.So when i put my phone into custom recovery mode and installed the custom kernel through custom recovery a quick message appeared and my phone just shut off. My phone hasn't turned on since and i have no clue to unbrick my phone. I talked to a guy at att and he said that he unbricked his hard bricked phone without a jig or a jtag is that possible?

Sounds like corrupted download. Look for another source and let me know how it goes.

I have a bricked Samsung Galaxy S2 and have been doing some research on how to fix this. There is a lot of info online, but I don't understand most of it as it is too technical and I need help having it translated into layman's terms!
Context:
- Galaxy S2 (GT-I9100)
- Unlocked
- Purchased from Kogan 2 years ago (no longer under warranty)
- Appears to be Polish stock based on the packaging and manual
- I am in Australia
Problem:
- Phone is stuck in boot loop, unable to get past the intro flash screen that says Samsung Galaxy S2 GT-I19100.
- It keeps resetting itself and going back to flash screen infinitely. I need to remove the battery in order for it to stop doing that.
- I'm unable to get into the mode that would allow me to do a factory reset, however I am able to get into download mode.
What I think I need to do, but need help verifying:
- Download Odin onto my PC. (I think Odin is software that allows me to access the core of the phone via my PC, is this correct?)
- Download the correct version of the operating system. From what I can gather, there are different versions depending upon which network you are with. Because my phone is unlocked, I need to get an unlocked version but I'm not sure whether I should get one designed for Australia or for Poland (or whether it matters)?
- Connect PC and phone via USB cable
- Turn on Odin
- Somehow use Odin to reinstall O/S on my phone
Questions:
- Are the steps above correct or am I missing something?
- Does it matter which version of Odin I install or can I just do a google search for Odin downloads?
- Where do I find the file I need to reinstall the O/S?
- Where can I find instructions on how to use Odin once I have the correct file to install?
Please help. Hopefully if I can document the instructions in a really simple way in this thread, it might help other technology illiterate people like me in the future.

hi ... I found a guide that covers all your doubts .. You can access it here ... :good: :fingers-crossed: ... From next time, always search the forum before creating a new thread (or) asking a question ... almost all your doubts can be cleared with a simple search .. :cyclops:
Thanks for your response and the link to the tutorial. I have followed all of the steps and am getting a red FAIL.
Things I have tried are:
- uninstall and reinstall KIES (and Samsung drivers)
- different USB ports on same PC
- different USB ports on another PC
- different firmware files (I9100XWLSH_I9100XSALSA_I9100XXLS9_HOME.tar.md5; I9100XWLSJ_I9100XWXLS8_I9100XXLS7_HOME.tar.md5; I9100XWLSW_I9100XXMS2_I9100XEULS5_HOME.tar.md5)
- disabling anti virus software
- different USB cables (am currently using the default that came with the Samsung Galaxy S2)
- checking that KIES is not running (and confirming in task manager that there are no active processes)
- double checking that the correct options boxes are checked in Odin
- checked that the firmware files successfully downloaded (via WinRar)
My error log is as follows:
<ID:0/004> Added!!

It appears to get stuck at the NAND write step every time I try. What does this mean? Am I using the correct firmware file?
I would really appreciate help. I feel like I am so close. Maybe I need a different type of firmware since it is a Polish phone being used in Australia? In the meantime, I am going to try installing a couple of different versions of Odin and seeing if that makes a difference but I would really appreciate any other ideas. Thanks in advance!!
Hi All,
I recently got a S3 GT-I9300 from a friend. This was bought from some Romanian provider, so I believe it is the International version. The phone came with already rooted and had CM10 installed. Unfortunately, is not a firmware I enjoy using so, I wanted to install MIUI.
I managed to get MIUI to install and was using it. However, the phone crashed and reset the phone by taking battery out and putting back in.
Problems:
1) Phone does not boot anymore
2) Phone Shows Samsung Galaxy S3 logo and stays on the screen
3) I am unsure what version of the firmware I should be restoring to
4) Phone can boot into download mode but does not show the product name. Here is what I see:
[*]ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: <blank>
CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: NO
CURRENT BINARY: Samsung Official
SYSTEM STATUS: Custom
Fixes tried so far:
1) PDA - and choosing the latest firmware download - I9300XXUGNB4_I9300NZCGNB1_I9300XXUGNB1_HOME.tar.md5 - ODIN gets stuck on: <ID:0/004> SetupConnection..
Is there anything I have missed?
Cheers.

After selection of PDA wait for at least 4-5 minutes sometimes it requires some time to load and make sure you are using ODIN v3.09

Try emergency recovery software >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30087735 << if that fails service repair (product name blank)
I think the problem is, is that ODIN is not actually talking to the phone. While the phone can be made to enter download mode, I believe the phone may have been re-partitioned and everything; as in the phone partition table has been deleted/updated/screw up some how.
I have tried, on numerous occasions to try and full-flash the phone but it has not worked. Will give this a try and update with findings.
Edit 1:
So I downloaded the package from your suggestion and just tried to flash the bootloader. Got an instant fail with:
