[Q] Help with getting into recovery, soft brick? - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Running Task's " the beginning," ICS ROM and A1 kernel v1.7 wifi only on my Galaxy Tab 10.1 wifi 32gb US model and having soft brick issue. Will only let me turn tab on and off not boot into download or recovery mode. How can I get into recovery otherwise or any other suggestions/fixes? Thanks for the time and help.
Edit: Never mind booted into recovery using Odin reflashed backup to restore ROM. Had to data wipe factory reset and wipe both caches to reinstall Task's ICS ROM. Only then was issue resolved after flashing A1 kernel v1.7 that was stuck at Samsung logo every reboot. Now using Yoda kernel instead with no issues on this ROM.

boot loop problem

Hi Guys
I flashed villain Rom 1.1 and then tried to flash back the official XWKE7 but the phone got stuck into an infinte boot loop
if i flash back villain rom the phone boots normally but any other ROM will cause the boot loop
I noticed that whenever i flash a ROM, the phone shows at startup that it cannot access system
Any ideas of how to solve this issue. Thanks

Help!!!!! SGS2 i9100 get stuck at splash sreen logo after flashing Resurection 2.5.2

Hi all,
ytd, I flashed the rom resurrection 2.5.2. After that my phone won't continue from bootscreen Samsung Galaxy S2 and yellow trangle.
- Download mod works fine.
- Clockworkmod works fine.
I tried to find solution, I flashed back to stock rom and root it using Odin, it works fine.
- Stock rom works fine.
I flashed via odin again the ICS (4.0.3) recovery package/ROM and it works fine.
But When I install new rom via CWM:
- CM9 won't work (stuck at bootscreen forever)
- Resurrection 2.5.2 (Stuck at siyah kernel bootimage after Samsung SGS 2 logo bootscreen)
- CM7 works fine.
I already wipe/factory reset, wipe dalvik cache, clear cache partition. Format SD card...... it still won't help.
I've installed and tested roms so many times, this is my first time problem.
I know you have done the necessary to try solve this but try in this order:

It is strange that Gingerbread works but not ICS.

[Q] Won't boot, worked fine, then bootloop, now it freezes (using CM9 ICS Nightly)

Hi Friends,
Model Number - GT-P7510
I recently rooted and installed the CM9 ICS nightly rom using the noob video instructions (This included rooting with Odin, installing CMW recovery 4.0.0.4, then I flashed the ROM cm-9-20120624 Nightly and finally flashed GAPPS-ics).
I over clocked using the CM9 settings and everything worked perfectly for about a week, it was great. Then it just crashed while I was reading my email and began to bootloop. After reading for similar errors I rebooted to recovery and tried wiped the cache and dalvic cache, I wiped data and factory reset several times but nothing worked, always the same bootloop. I re flashed the same ROM and still nothing, after a while the boot screen would simply freeze instead of bootloop.
Then I connected to my PC, and did this to no avail. In fact it simply added to the problem by adding a yellow warning triangle while attempting to boot so I did the Oden thing again like the first time I rooted however I installed CMW version 5.5.0.4 instead thinking it might help but it hasn't.
One last point, when I attempt to wipe data/factory reset the tablet seems to freeze and attempt to reboot rather than say something like "success" as it would during a cache wipe. This maybe normal or it maybe the problem! who knows?
On that point, I would be very grateful if some of you could help get me to the point when my PC recognises the tablet so I can reflash a new ROM.
Thanks in advance,
Karl
I once got the same problem. The only thing that helped was to flash back the stock rom via Odin with the pit file. And don't forget to do a hard reset after flashing the rom. I'll just stick to the stock rom until the official update is getting released.

Questions go in the Q&A section
I think the best way is still to do factory reset, go back to the stock ROM first and try custom HC ROM until the official ICS is released.

S2 won't go past boot screen

So basically my S2 died on me randomly, but i was able to boot into recovery so i tried to restore my backup. It then said 'MD5 mismatch', I then tried to install a rom but it said installation aborted, I then booted my phone into download mode, loaded a stock rom through odin, it said successful but it won't go past the boot screen, it just hangs. I tried flashing another stock rom but the same problem occurred.
Any form of help is appreciated
OK now you flashed back to stock rom, boot into stock recovery then do a factory reset/wipe data. Be sure your not dangered by the emmc bug on 4.0.4.

[Q] How to recover when itmpossible to wipe data/factory?

Hi,
Tried flashing firefoxos on my S2 (i9100) and now I'm stuck in boot loop.
I've tried a multitude of tricks to no avail.
Basically I'm able to flash any kernel or rom. Currently I have CWM 6.0.3.7 and CM 10.2 flashed.
I'm stuck at the splash screen.
If I try to wipe data/factor the phone sits for a while and then all of a sudden it reboots.
Any suggestions on how I can revive the phone?
EDIT:
Seems I might've been bitten by the MMC Superbrick bug,.. Can someone confirm this?

Your phone is totally safe as long as you are able to boot into recovery.
Download any jb based custom ROM and transfer it to your phone by mounting USB storage in recovery.
Do a full wipe
Flash it.

Problem is when wiping..
I just installed CM 10.1.3 (Stable) via CWM, no issues.
But while formatting /data (After quite a while) the phone just reboots.
Flash stock firmware with Odin.
I tried flashing stock firmware using odin but it still hangs during the samsung logo.
Has this phone been hit by the EMMC brick bug?
Is there anything else I can try in order to revive it?
