P4: Stuck on bootloop, wipe data/factory reset hangs - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Suddenly this afternoon my P4 keeps hanging, frozen window while internetting. P4 did not react anymore.
Restarted it and it hangs during CM circle.
Booting in recovery worked. but only download section worked: the left icon after which twrp normally started did not react.
Through Odin I installed CMW 6.0.3.3.
I can install zip files, but wipe data / factory reset does not work. It hangs and does not react.
I installed as wel the CM10.1 from the last three days without any problem. Only wiping still does not work end starting up hangs in CM - circle.
What can I do to solve this?
Thanks in advance for your advise.

Sorted it out already.
The only solution that worked was installing the original software through Odin and then afterwards the procedure of rooting and installing everything again.

You can get the Odin-Firmware-Files @ http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/
Odin can be found through google
Btw.: There is a thread, which answers all these questions and how to set your Tab back to stock...

Thanks TNa.Plastic... The fix was stock recovery and the format worked.

As long as you can get in downloadmode you`re oke. Look om www.sammobile.com/firmware for the stock rom you need (country or region you live in) and flash it with Odin. See item 3 in my signature for a detailled tutorial how to do that. You might need a jig however, but try getting in downloadmode manualy for now.
Stock firmware follow instructions .

I have a similar problem
My S3 does not work after I root it, please give me a instruction link to recuse it. Thanks.
I tried flashing (Odin v3.04) the official 4.1.1 after trying the official 4.1.2 and now neither of them work. I am constantly stuck at the "SAMSUNG" logo boot stage.
I can enter download mode fine and also recovery mode but I am stumped on what to do to fix the problem.
Does anyone have a fix?

Edit: Found more updated version of stock firmware from sammobile, will try that tomorrow and post results.I hope this works, though the problem may be because I cant wipe the dalvik or data because I cant access recovery, I was previously running cm10.1 nightlies and trying to get back to stock.

GT-i9300 stuck at the startup logo
Hi Guys
My GS3 is stuck at the boot logo. I've read and done all but with no luck,
First problem:
EFS error:
"Fake IMEI (usually 004999010640000)
Not registered to network
Fake Serial Number (usually 0000000)"
Now: stuck on boot logo.
I followed the forum for GT-i9500 thinking this would resolve my efs error. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2392632
I did the following:
1. installed PhoeniX.ROM.EFS.Backup.S4
2. Extracted the efs backup tar file & created a folder in the root called efsbackup & copied all extracted files to it.
3. Used Root Explorer to copy all files to the efs main folder. overwriting all.
4. Used the terminal:
su
busybox chown 1001:1001 /efs/nv_data.bin
busybox chmod 06755 /efs/nv_data.bin
5. rebooted.
nothing happened I was still stuck with the efs error
Now I entered safe mode, and nothing i could do, used the hold power button + restart.
now I'm in my second problem, stuck at the boot logo.
I can go to recovery & download mode....
Please help, i really need it hey

I realize it's Saturday, July 26, 2014 - But I had this exact same problem a moment ago; I got out of it by flashing a different recovery with Odin v3.09. I've got soft bricked staring down "Recovery Booting" and that's it. I had download mode available, so went to CWM 6.0.4.5 from TWRP 2.7.1.0. I must admit I thought flashing my HTC Titan I via Goldcard was hard, but this is ridiculous which my SG3 has presented just to get something other than Android Recovery 3e. I got Knox disabled, the device rooted despite being 4.3, but it begs the question what's the point of updating to 4.4.x if going backwards becomes an act of God doing it. Update: Another attempt did not fix the booting problem; however it is a solution to get out of the recovery booting and boot into a normal startup and back to your phone being usable from whatever launcher you use (Nova in my case) It will return to normal startup once you do this if it becomes necessary to do so, which is a bit of a sigh of relief. I'm about at wit's end. One problem gets solved but the moment I ran Towelroot which really worked, new issues keep popping up. Is there a way to look at the bootloader or what OS update created this Knox monstrosity and made our lives much harder than it has to be. I don't mean to sound like I'm asking a stupid question but is there an apk or a procedure within whatever flavor recovery we use that will perform the equivalent of the Task29 we use to perform on the HD2, something that will wipe these devices down to their baby butts and start over; thanks?

Flashed CWM with ROM manger now cannot leave cwm

Hey guys, my friend decided to flash a custom rom, asked me for help, so I told him to get rom manager and install cwm first.
He was rooted already, not long after telling him. To use rom manager to get cwm, he messages me telling me he is stuck cwm, it seems that every time he turns in the phone or restarts he cannot leave cwm at all, he also claims he cannot get into download mode, keeps taking him to cwm.
I got him to and re flash cwm via cwm, but it gave him an error.
Has anyone heard of getting stuck in cwm before??

Get your friend to read the stickies in general, before he flashes anything else and destroys his phone.
Follow the guide to restoring to fully stock using odin on his pc, it might enable the phone to boot normally.

Samsung Galaxy 4.2 US YP-GI1CB/XAA Recovery Mode Help

Hey guys. I seem to be having trouble getting my Samsung Galaxy 4.2 out of it's recovery mode. I'll start with how I got here. So one day I was on my galaxy when the power ran out. I tried restarting it and found myself in a boot loop. So to fix it I tried flashing a kernel. All was well until I found out my wifi wasn't working. So I read up on some forums an people said the best fix was to just re-flash a kernel. So I did it again and it worked for a time. Then once again it said I was connected to the wifi, yet I couldn't actually get on anything wifi related. So again, to fix it I flashed a kernel. Now I'm really stuck. The kernel I flashed gave me a SG2 logo at boot, as well as a yellow triangle. Now whenever I try starting my SGP 4.2, it goes right into the recovery mode. I've also flashed a custom recovery mode to clear the Dalvik and normal cache, but it still does nothing. I've also tried re-flashing ROMS and kernels, but it still just leads me to this darn recovery mode.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Try to go stock rom and kernel with Odin. Then try to reflash the CWM. Wifi fix files and instructions are here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2198444
There's another way to fix wifi problem. But I don't remember the folder path . I'll look for it.

This was the same kernel that got me my CMW in the first place. . . I've tried both stock and custom ROMS, and they flash successfully, but it just takes me right back to my recovery menu after I reboot.

I am having the same issue. I verified my device beforehand and all the files. No matter what recovery I flash (stock or cwm) it will still boot into recovery. I've also tried flashing the stock rom, stock root rom and a custom rom as well as clearing the data and cache multiple times with no luck. Has anyone figured out a way around this?

cwm doesnt start/stuck at loading screen after stock flashed

Hey guys,
yesterday i flashed the latest unofficial temasek rom, before that i had cm 10.2.
at first it worked fine, but afterwards i also flashed the latest gapps.
it lagged a bit so i did a reboot but then it stuck at loading screen. i mean it seemed like it boots but it didnt continue.
i tried to get in cwm and it took about 5 minutes to get there, it said cant mount data etc.
i wanted to flash the normal cm11 but there was an error and then it couldnt start anymore. no blue circle.
after several minutes i got in the cwm and tried to flash different roms, at first custom via cwm, then i tried to flash the stock via odin and
it said it was successfull, but it wasnt. it still stuck at loading but its not frozen, the animation works well.
i tried wipes and factory reset but it didnt help. the only thing that works well is download mode.
its a normal unbranded s3.
thanks for helping

ensure that you wiped all data, cache and factory reset
clean wipe..this step is often omitted during installation.

This is a soft boot due to the fact you still have the ability to access recovery and such what i would suggest you do is get factory files and restore phone back to stock and start over this should fix your problem. If you look around XDA you will find the files you will need ODIN being the main tool you will use to flash your phone.

You have flashed a stock firmware with stock bootloader etc. using odin and still stuck in a soft brick ? remember to wipe the phone a rule of thumb i use is to wipe the phone 3 times before i flash and 3 times after i flash. during the first boot up it may take a little time to boot as it must rebuild the cache. I dont think it is a motherboard issue i think you may have just flashed a wrong file that needs to be wiped out before continuing on. i have had this problem in the past with a galaxy s2 when i was developing custom roms for it. it took me a couple of wipes and factory firmware reflashes but i eventually got the phone back in working order. look here for the factory files you will need to re flash your phone with odin ----> https://samsung-firmware.org/model/SM-G925I/ also make sure you are using the latest version of ODIN you will to put your phone in download mode instead of recovery
Hi, could you fix it ?? I am facing the same issue.
