Galaxy Tab 10.1 LTE Boot loop

Hey guys, need help with my LTE 10.1 Tab...
If I remember correctly, I did the root located here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=16321915#post16321915
Anyhow, after weeks of clicking away from the update that was pushed to my device I finally clicked it like an idiot and now I'm stuck on one of two things, it either boot loops at the Samsung Galaxy TAB 10.1 screen or goes past that screen and sits at a black screen.
I have access to ODIN3 Download Mode and it says "Waitting USB Cable..." but can't get USB to recognize my device even though it did recognize it prior to going down. If I click the Android Installer box option, it just reboots and keeps doing the same thing.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm deploying for 10 months soon and would love to have my tablet to take with me... Thanks!
I have the same trouble with my Galaxy Tab 10.1 LTE, if you have found a solution, please help

Well I took it into the local Verizon store and since the battery was dead from boot looping they just had a new one shipped to me under warranty... We'll see how this turns out...

This was is what was happening to me so I could not get ODIN access from the computer because the USB device was unknown even though the Samsung's driver were installed.
After some digging around I ended up installing Kies 2.0 even though this is an LTE. That did the trick. The computer recognized the device and I had ODIN access. Hope this helps someone. I know that frustrated feeling.
similar situation happened to me.
Fixed using the instructions posted here for Team Overcome.
In brief, gives you a stock firmware to flash, clean the phone, install Overcome rom with root, adds CWM, all is just fine afterwards.
Nothing like bricking your new baby first day out! Yeah, this does help fix things.

[Q] graghic problem p7500

hi guys
i have very very big problem so cant do anything now!!
first week when i bought tab 10.1(3g+ wifi) , i get root with this
warning : don't use this any way : warning
this way very easy : without any change copy this to tab & let it from recovery mode
everything goes very well until i Decide to install cmw , busybox
in this time's so tab let graphic problem
of course with install a rom (P7500JPKL2_P7500OJPLB1_P7500XXKL3_HOME.tar.md5)
only graphic problem resolve
since yesterday i decided to change everything
told me :install stock rom & install cmw , reroot , busybox & ...
go stock rom (P7500OXAKI1_P7500XXKI1_P7500XXKI1_HOME.tar.md5)
after install this everything was bad
now i have graphic problem in boot , download mode , recovery ,... every where
of course i can install rom hard (with problem can sense where are you)
but with both of rom not changed
i realize problem is rooted then to make change with change the rom
it seems the problem is software
how can re wright everything as first (boot loader , rom , ...)
please help me
sorry fo bad english
regards.
I can hardly understand that... But if you want to go stock go to SamMobile.com and go to the firmware section.. Once there use the search option and look for p7500, choose a stock Rom from the list and download..
Once done, install Kies to get the drivers, with drivers installed put the tablet in Odin mode (turn it off then press volume down+power) select the download mode and connect the tablet to the computer.
Once done, open Odin and don't change any option there.. Go to pda and select the file you downloaded from SamMobile and Press start..
That's it

Over in the development thread there is this... little bit over my head, but have a like at it.

The only problem with that link you posted is that you'll need working Android OS, so you would still need to get your Tab up and running again. Also from what I've read in that link its not an Ubuntu os that runs natively on our Tabs. It sounds like it just uses your device as a host or something, it only boots up when your device is docked to a computer and uses its screen, keyboard and mouse.

Actually you just have to connect it on a screen with HDMI. No need for a computer. Somehow Ubuntu takes over when it detects HDMI out from the dock. It has to be a pretty decent device though. At least dual core and one gigabyte ram... Oh well, we just have to wait until canonical releases it!

1.- press power + volume down until the tablet turns on into bootloader and move to downloading with volume down... Once you are in downloading press volume up and you will be in Odin mode. (look at reference image at bottom)
2.-download samsung Kies here and install to get the drivers
3.-download samsung stock rom here search for P7500 and get a rom according to your country/region once downloaded unzip it
4.-get Odin here
5.-connect your tablet to pc (check your usb wire its good and use a back motherboard usb port) , open Odin and Press PDA, in PDA put the file you downloaded from sammobile and unziped then Press start (do not change any Odin's options from the check boxes)
6.-wait until process finish and then you are back to stock close Odin and by this time the tablet should be rebooting.
if you are not able to recover your tab with all this then go pay

[Help me] Unbrick haipai i9389 (mtk6589)

Hi all, unfortunately, i have bricked my phone, and it now can't turn on..
I have a backup of the software(My friend gived me it), but when i put it in SP Flash Tool, i see only the red bar, then the program don't flash anything..
My computer see the phone as "MTK USB Port (COM6)"..
Is this the problem maybe?
Please help me..
Sorry for my bad english, I'm italian..
#UP
No one can help me please?
Did you use MTK droid tools to make a backup? I know you may have done this all ready, but did you download the drivers and checked in device manager on your computer to see if you can see the phone? Sometimes if you remove the battery, and connect it to the computer. (with a good USB lead ) it should install the phones drivers. Did you also install adb on your computer? As if you did, you should be able to get into recovery. By typing adb reboot recovery and it should boot into c.w.m. recovery. Hope this helps. I'm still getting used to mine. Sorry I can't help with more advice, hopefully someone on here can help.

Did you make a backup of your ROM first off
Second: can you get in recovery
Third: if you want to superuser try superoneclick to root your device
Fourth:you have to be careful not to do things like that it's very dangerous to the device.

As long as you can access download mode you should be able to get the device working again. I'd try heimdall (get suite 1.3 I believe) instead of Odin. It usually works better. You just need to find the Odin stock package for your device.

Hi
I realised that Heimdall was failing as it was using the standard sansung USB drivers. Im now trying to figure out how to stop those drivers from loading every time i plug in the YP-GI1.
In the meantime, I used ODIN to try and load the PIT and PDA rom image.
It appears to work but then the write fails (see attachment)
Any help would be appreciated - Thanks

Hi
I couldnt get zdiag to pick up any driver, the word samsung_android briefly appears when i connect the usb cable to the device but by the time standard usb driver load, the zdiag drop down window is blank.
However, I tried Odin 3.0.7 with the pit and rom files and the device did flash sucessfully. Now the device boots and says sansung galaxy SII GT-9100G and a yellow triangle and stops there. I can boot the device into download mode but I cannot seem to get into recovery mode by holding power-home-vol+
Im not even sure if this is progress or whether I have used the wrong rom (which i doubt because it clearly stated it was for the galaxy 4.2 international version YP-GI1CW
I have taken a screenshot of the successful flash.
Thanks for talking the time to help me. Im a little stuck now as I dont know what to do next.

First you would need to take the right package for your device as I explicitly written it was made for YP-G1 only. (See the YP-G1CW) you would need in that case, something so you can fully restore your device. Maybe you can find it in the 4.2 general forum.
And even so you said it was made for the 4.2, the file says it's for YP-G1 a.k.a the 4.0.

Did you try getting the 4.2 drivers from Samsung Kies and then using zadig? Also it seems like you're using an S2 restore, which isn't for your device. The comment I linked you to is for restoring a YP-G1 so you would have to get the right heimdall package for your 4.2 like zaclimon said.

However, i have tried every version of Odin from 1.3 to 3.0.9 and they all fail to complete the Nand write (see below)
I have tried 2 pc's with 2 cables and all versions of Odin.

I think you are going to have to use Heimdall for this. Try and get the drivers installed for this device, and see if zadig picks it up.
Day 4
Hi
OK. It appears that I can either setup my PC to Use Heimdall (which requres the samsung KIES drivers NOT to be installed) or Odin (which requires the drivers to be installed)
I have now deinstalled the kies usb drivers, run drivecleanup to remove the old usb entries and downloaded Heimdall 1.3.1. When I run zdiag it picks up the samsung usb driver and install the heimdall driver.
Im trying now to use the rootted rom available (which seems ok for odin) available at
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1884071
However, if I try to use it with Heimdall 1.3.1 it says missing firmware.xml
I have a friends galaxy 4.2 also. Is there any way to extract the required info from that device or can anyone give pointers to where i might find a heimdall package for the YP-GI1CWXEU
Thanks - xdanewbie
In my opinion...heimdall is a little more advanced as opposed to odin. I suggest you stick to Odin...the flash might have failed because you flashed the wrong files before. From your thread...I believe you will get the PIT file...flash that and then flash the ROM and if you want, the kernel.
EDIT: I tested Odin v3.04...and it works fine with my YP-GI1.

To remove the yellow triangle, you need to use a USB JIG, google the term to know what I mean. There are no other ways to do the same.

Trying root

Hello , I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 GT-P7510 and i tried to root using a guide from this forum . After odin injected ''recovery.tar.md5'' everything was ok , but when i tried to open recovevery mode to unzip i can see only many letters on blue and back passing too fast , so nothing could be read and right after this my tablet turned off and when i turned on everything was in Chinese , Help me pls ! I'm very confused
I'm pretty sure you'll need to flash the US bootloader in Odin to fix the rolling screen. Search around in the forum and you'll find the file you need. And don't worry, your tablet isn't broken, it's just a bit "confused". Flash that bootloader and it will just fine. If you can't find the file just let me know and I'll dig it up from my office computer tomorrow.
