Can't flash any rom - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Very new to Samsung in general, and subsequently the Galaxy Tab 10.1 (P7510). I managed to get the device back to stock (bought it with some whack stuff on it), successfully rooted and flashed the most recent recovery. My problem is that I can't flash any ROMs...
I guess maybe I shouldn't say ANY but i've tried SlimBean (which nobody else seems to have any problems with - me? constant bootloop fun), and D2Dyno's CM 10.1 which fails on flash EVERY time.
The Tab I bought is the Google I/O version but that shouldn't make any difference right? if anyone has any ideas or suggestions I would greatly appreciate it since I'm new and can't actually post in the development thread
Thanks in advance...

[Q] Screen Freeze Reboot!

Okay...I have had this problem for a while now and cant find a solution to the current problem. Here goes. I have the Samsung Galaxy Note I717M. This is the Canadian version to the AT&T Note I717 I have been rooting my phones for several years now and pretty familiar with the ongoings of the whole process. I rooted my phone via ODIN and put a custom rom onto my Note with no problems. Everything works great! Where I run into a problem is when I decided to go with the Jellybean update 4.2.2. The Jellybean rom I am using is called Jellybam version 7.8.0. ParanoidAndroid Ver. 3.15 quincyatt_jb-mr1_build-6. When I installed it everything seemed to work fine for the first couple of days. All of a sudden my phone started to freeze where everything was non functioning. This frozen state would last for about 15 seconds then my screen would go completely light blue for another 5 to 10 seconds then turn off and reboot. It doesnt do this with any 4.2.1 custom roms. Only with the 4.2.2 version. Does anyone have this similiar problem? Is there a fix for this? I love my custom 4.2.2 rom and dont want to go back to any other earlier Android OS and rom. Can someone shed some light as to what is happening and is there a proceedure that needs to be followed or done differently so that this doesn't continues to happen. Or yet again is the a know issue? Any insight to fixing this problem would be greatly appreciated! I await your helpfull tools and hints. Any help I will be happy with.
thanks Guys

This is a known issue on Kelly bean roms. Oddly, most people are having less reboots with the new 4.2.2 over the 4.1.2 .... The issue is the kernel. There is no source to build from yet. So ... There are issues.
I have had a lot of freezing and reboots on many of the jelly roms. I'll tell you that you rom, jellybam, is not supported on xda.
I'm am currently on the unofficial AOKP and having great luck. You may want to give it a go.

Samsung still rebooting

Hi all
Im new to android and have been tweaking my samsung s4 for a couple of months now. I have a Samsung S4 GT I9505 with TWRP boot recovery , nova launcher prime and KitKat 4.4 Google play edition Rom. I have also flashed Faux Kernel onto my phone to prevent random restarts. The problem is I am still getting restarts (about 8 a day) the problem was a lot worse before I re-flashed it with the same kernel. I have tried flashing it again but I still get the same problem. Also some of my apps restart more often then before I had the custom ROM (GPE)
I am not 100% sure what the kernel does. What is the purpose of it. Are there others I can use, where can I get them from ?
Help would be most appreciated
Thanks
Aiden
kernel act as a bridge between OS and hardware....
and more kernel rom etc u find in your forum

Issues returning to a custom stock rom after flashing aosp rom

Hey guys,
I assume that someone has previously posted a thread about this issue but my attempts to reach any have proved pointless.
Therefore I hope someone could just enlighten me as to what I could do to solve this issue.
I flashed this aosp rom on my Galaxy SIII (I9300 international) but I decided to go back to the custom stock rom I was previously using but when I tried to restore my backup the phone got stuck in bootloop in the samsung loading screen.
Thus, I tried to flash a new custom rom from the ground up the the phone is still behaving the same way.
Can someone help out, please?
Thanks in advance!
Cheers!
I would advise you to use this rom (its build on touchwhizz but with many improvements)

Use Odin to return your phone to official stock... if stuck in bootloop after flashing boot into recovery and factory reset.Once you have your phone up and running then you can go back to flashing a custom rom.

[Q] Samsung Galaxy S3 I9300 Crashes on any custom rom

Hello, I've been using my S3 with Cyanogenmod for about a year now.
Since a little while (a week or 3 ago) the phone crashes randomly on ANY custom rom. Flashing the samsung software fixes the problem.
I really do not like the standard rom that comes with an S3 and I'd like to know if anyone else has been having these errors.
The problem came out of nowhere, Ive already send my phone to Samsung and all they did was a software update since on the samsung rom it works fine.
If I need to provide any information then please ask away.
Thanks in advance

SGH-I337 Dev ROM/Firmware

Anyone found or have a dev rom for the Gs4 SGH-I337? My cousin played with his phone a while ago and it had a recovery problem so i used ODIN to flash the stock-recovery.img. Recovery successfully installed but now the ROM isn't working. I tried to add back the firmware it had (I believe 4.4.2 or 4.2.2) but now it's on a boot loop on the Samsung Custom screen. After boot it'll vibrate multiple times and then it'll stop vibrating but phone would get warm. I was thinking if somebody can help me find a Dev ROM I'll might be able to redownload the original firmware. That's what I did to my Verizon Gs5 (currently running LineageOS). Thanks if anybody can help

You have an AT&T variant, which means there is no developer edition for your device, and you can't use another devices.
The S5 has a special vulnerability that allows one to convert to developer edition, but it doesn't apply to the S4.
