Thanks for your advice that I followed as mentioned.
Regarding Odin process is completed successfully then the device reboot to recovery mode so I rebooted again. Unfortunately the problem is still unsolved.
Vibrate on Samsung Logo.
Other advice may can help.?
Thanks and Best Regards,

I had the same problem with you. I own an Euro version Tab and I flashed P1000JPJM4 (I didn't know that it is arabic) and had the same symptoms after that.
I believe that P1000JPJM4 have signed kernel just like P1000XXJM* series.
I tried to flash P1000BUJI4 which was my previous version but I got errors in odin.
I flashed P1000XXJM6 which also has signed kernel and my tab come to life.
After that I did the roto patch to unsign kernel (May RotoHammer and everyone helped the patch project, live long and happy!!!!) and after that I flashed P1000BUJI4 with success.

can you poat a link to roto patch please.

flash this rom with odin 1.7 select re-partition no pit file

dude i flashed this rome and nothing worked to fix it... i took to samsung and told them this happened after an update through kies and they almost gave up hope of fixing it, however, they flashed a rom as a last resort and it worked! and it is amazing and blazing fast but i wasnt able to find it online... its P1000JXJM2 good luck

I've flashed my AT&T Galaxy tab.
I've run the whole process described in a video at Galaxy Tab forum and everything went well, except the last boot (JHA.tar, P1_20100909.pit and Roto-JMA.tar
At the final booting with the new firmware, the screen is black. Only the AT&T logo flashes for a second
I have no option to go to the recovery mode. The Samsung logo does not appear also. When power it on, it seems to be working but the screen is black (I've hear the jingles and the vibs of a "normal" boot)
I've rooted the tab before to be able to run the "bootloader application" from Roto (which told me I'm safe).
Do you have any suggestion on what to try?
Thanks in advance.
Kiko

I've fixed the black screen problem just loading the JJ4 bootloaders.
I've searched on XDA and follow the suggestion from ROTO.
It is now working perfect.
MIllion thanks to Ayman07 for your easy to follow guide and also to ROTO for his suggested fix o fthe problem.

WILL PAY $30 to anyone that fixes my Verizon Galaxy Tab!!!

I recently purchased an off contract Verizon Tab from a friend.
I had successfully rooted it using the superoneclick.exe file.
I since decided to flash Overcome_v1.2.1 with Odin using the exact steps as listed & even watched the video 2x.
"Click start and wait for PASS! to show highlighted green on Odin.
9. Your Galaxy Tab will Reboot, and get stuck on the Samsung Boot Screen. This is fine.
10. Turn your Galaxy Tab off by holding the power button for about 5 seconds.
11. Turn your Galaxy Tab on into RECOVERY mode (Press Volume UP and Power On at the same time).
12. The Galaxy Tab will now perform the EXT4 conversion.
13. Sit tight, depending on how much data you have, this can take quite a long time.
14. Once finished, click reboot system now (by pressing the power button)."
Now...I don't know what "quite a long time" is but after 30mins, there was still nothing but a blank sceen w the tell tale sign of a light, thin, margin type as seen on the video.
I then followed these steps:
"IF your Tab does not boot after flashing the kernel and hangs at the Samsung Galaxy Tab screen, you must follow the following procedure
1.Get a stock rom package (any of Rotohammer's firmwares will work)
2.Get P1_add_hidden.zip attached to this post and extract the P1_add_hidden.pit file
3.Using Odin 1.7, put stock rom (Roto-JME-Full-v4.tar for example) in PDA slot.
4.Put P1_add_hidden.pit in Pit slot
5.Check repartition box
6.Put Tab in download mode by holding Volume Down and Power, connect to the computer, and press start.
7.After this, the Tab will reboot normally. Shut it down and return to download mode.
8.Open Odin 1.7 and reconnect the Tab.
9.In the PDA slot, choose the Overcome Kernel v2.0 tar file for use with Odin. Press start
10.It will flash the kernel then reboot. Upon reboot, you should hear the sexy robot voices informing you of the status of the EXT4 conversion.
11.Once done, the Tab will boot normally. At this point you can load Overcome v1.2.2 rom (or any other Rom of your choosing)
12.NOTE - Overcome 1.2.2 includes v2.0 of the kernel, so no reflashing is required after install."
I never got past the part in step 10 to hear any responses. And instead of searching for one of Rotohammers FIRMWARES as suggested, I input a kernel from Voodoo!
Now I can STIL get into DL mode but whenever I try a normal reboot or recovery, it runs through -Wiping DATA- Formatting DATA---DATA: Wipe failed!
over and over until the Tab reboots and when the samsung splash screen somes up, there is a weird "flashing" of the screen in multiple colors.
PLEASE...for God's sake...with all the great inds on here, someone help me!
Please email me @ [email protected] or call/txt me on my GV # 401-213-9555 I will PayPal or Wire someone a "service charge" for their assistance!
Thank you & I hope i did not break any rules on here by asking.

You need to find a stock Verizon firmware and flash through Odin
I just did a brief search and found this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=855415
But I'd ultimately recommend flashing this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=941749
And you may need to flash this to get to a stage where you have a working recovery image: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=941781

Thank you very much! I will attempt that. I seem to be stuck in DL mode though.
I was downloading in Odin and the Tab has been stuck at 95% for the past 30mins.
Should I power off or is it a sure fire way to brick it?

Assuming there are no bootloaders being flashed you can't really make it un-recoverable. What exactly were you flashing?

Any idea why it keeps getting hung up right about 99%?

hi
hi friend
i had simmilar problems in past.
Maybe you have problems with the usb ports of your machine.
If you have amd/sis/via for usb chipset at your computer try to do the procedure with another machine with intel chipset.
I hope this helps you

How to Re-stock P1000 to Gingebread 2.3 | Guide with Links

NOTE : this is not my own procedure but i just wanna share this with you guys since some tab users here are having problems restocking their tab to gingerbread, i have also added some notes and troubleshooting in case there will be an issue flashing the rom
link to the original post credits of course to the writer > how to restock p1000 to gingerbread 2.3
btw, this is a complete and full tutorial/step-by-step guide on how to restock gingerbread rom, so if you did not download all requirements, restocking wont be successful
my story and experience : hey guys, yesterday night, i softbricked my galaxy tab p1000 which was running cm9, it turned out like that when i went to recovery and wipe all data, cache, dalvik, even system, and boot. i tried reflashing the cm9.zip but as it was installing its update, my tab suddenly boot into battery icon, meaning it was already empty (maybe, dont have any idea), then, since it was already 12 midnight, there were no internet cafes open in our village, so i went out though somehow it might be dangerous for me, then, i found an internet cafe open. i rent a pc, first, i tried to go to download mode, so some drivers will be installed, but it kept showing "unkown device recognized" bla bla.. still.. i didnt lose hope. so i searched on google, and i found this site > http://suzhipackz.blogspot.com/2012/07/how-to-re-stock-samsung-galaxy-tab.html , when i finished downloading odin, i opened it to check whether it will read my device or not, first three attempts, it did not. so, i thought of downloading samsung kies so the drivers will be installed (safest way really to install samsung drivers), then i still looked for a smaller file (while waiting for kies to complete its download), then i found that there is a smaller zip file for you to install samsung drivers (see attachment below), i installed it, but still odin cant detect my device (try it, might be just on the pc i rented), so i just waited for kies to complete.. after a couple of minutes, successfully downloaded kies, and installed it. i tried connecting tab to pc with odin opened, i rebooted to download mode again and reconnect tab to pc, and voila! odin read my device! so, since pc has already detected my device, i just waited about 1 1/2 hours for the rom and the pit file and the db data file.... after almost 2 and half hours of crossing fingers, i have revived my tab and restocked it to gingebread 2.3!
HOW TO RESTOCK SAMSUNG GALAXY TAB p1000 to 2.3.3 GINGER BREAD STOCK ROM?
HERE:
- ALL REQUIREMENTS
.......Samsung KIES > LINK FOR SAMSUNG KIES

.......gt-p1000_mr_PIT > LINK FOR PIT
.......dbdata.zip > LINK FOR DBDATA
.......place it all in ONE FOLDER in desktop "unzip it all"
PLEASE DOWNLOAD ALL OF THIS BEFORE YOU CONTINUE..............
PROCEDURE:
.......Turn off tab
.......open ODIN3 v1.7
.......click on the PDA and select - p1000xxjq1_p1000xxjq1_p1000xxjpz in your computer
.......clink on the PIT and select - gt-p1000_mr_PIT

.......in your tab press and hold "VOLUME DOWN AND POWER BUTTON"
.......if DOWNLOADING APPEAR leave it like that
.......now, connect you tab in computer
.......if ODIN detects your phone PRESS START in ODIN
.......wait for it until success, after that disconnect your tab
(if for an instance it stuck on downloading mode but you have already finished flashing, do not worry, you just have to manually hold the power button for it to boot up, it might get into recovery, so please reboot the system (it might also be a touch recovery so please tab the home touch key to continue) then if it keeps on booting on "samsung", do not worry, you are not done yet with the restocking procedure, so please proceed to the next step)
.......press and hold power button until it will turn off
.......open ODIN3 v1.7 again
.......UNCHECK it all "re-partition, auto reboot, f.reset time"

.......This time we will go to CLOCKWORKMOD by holding "VOLUME UP and POWER BUTTON"
(then wipe data, and wipe cache, (volume keys to scroll up or down, and home touch key to select) and reboot system, wait for a minute or two and home screen will now appear)
.........................................NOW YOUR IN STOCK ROM AGAIN 2.3.3 GINGER BREAD
another note : when there is an error for example that flashed on your tab screen like a color red "E:\ " something like that, do not worry, it is the external sd card (i dont have one so it was an error then but not a problem, no worries) just let it be, wait until it finishes
some files are already attached below coz they are just small in size
clicking "thanks" button is enough for me..
just sharing this with you guys...

Samsung Tab P1000 stuck in nowhere!
First of all thanks the OP for the brilliant post on how to re-stock GB on P1000.
Earlier today I was fooling around with my P1000 to update it from CM11 to Omnirom 5.0.2, troubles started there. I was trying to install the TWRP recovery over CWM, and that is when all hell broke loose.
1. P1000 couldn't mount my internal SD. The tab was perfectly booting to a previous version of JB CM sapir, which I don't have any clue appeared where from. The storage showed the 2 GB internal memory, but the 12GB internal SD was missing out.
And the CWM errors were E:/can't mound internal SD
2. Now, after wiping data, dalvik, battery stats, formatting and all that, the tab doesn't even boot into the OS. The moment the power button is on, CWM initiates a count down saying, trying to mount SD, but unable to do so. After 20 seconds, the tab starts this whole process again, and thus a loop.
3. I tried to re-stock to GB; but my tab isn't being detected by Odin in download mode. Odin detects the tab when it is turned on and when the tab is on countdown-restart-countdown loop; but not in download mode.
I am a total noob, and I don't want to throw my tab away as I am a student and can't afford to get a new one Someone please help me to fix the issue. Thanks in advance!

If you have a Verizon retail version of the Note 3, you can not use Clockworkmod recovery. Because your bootloader is locked. You can only use Hashcode's Safestrap (in the Development section).

Which means you must be rooted first, then install Safestrap, which is a modified TWRP recovery. You can thank Verizon for that bullsh!t

Flash PIT - this will fix it
You need to flash the PIT with ODIN, latest version (3.09, I believe). Google for a download mirror that hosts the PIT for whichever type of note 3 you have, then flash it with odin (should work while in the invalid software screen). Then, if it doesn't reboot, just remove the battery and unplug that sucka. When it reboots, it should go back to download mode or just regular bootup. I recommend setting up adb, which makes it much easier to put the phone into whatever mode you desire with a simple dos command.

got out of it
this happened to me last night, I went into Odin mode "home, volume down, power button" instead of selecting odin mode from that menu I selected "reboot phone" (or something to that effect) My note 3 restarted......PHEW...... hope this helps someone

How to WIPE without CWM / NO recovery / only download

Hey guys.
I have been doing a lot of researches before creating this new thread.
Here is my problem with a Samsung Galaxy s3 I9300T (Australia - Vodafone build). I was given the phone, since it was stuck in a boot loop after a software update issue with Kies (I think from memory 4.2 or something).
The phone boots up, displays the Vodafone logo, and is stuck on the Samsung logo. The phone doesn't restart but stays idle there.
It is impossible to reach the download mode with the use of the 3 buttons, but a USB JIB I bought on ebay does the trick.
Odin recognizes the phone, I can flash a stock Kernel from Samsmobile or root/install the CWM.
BUT, there is no way (so far?) to reach the recovery mode.
I tried to flash a new boot loader, tried to check any physical issue with the buttons, but nothing seems wrong.
I have been looking for tools such a android toolbox/toolkit etc, in the hope one would be able to wipe/flash the nand or even unbrick or whatsoever, from a download mode and not ADB, since I there no fast boot available.
I am ready to try anything, since there's nothing to loose here.
I'm running windows 7 from Parallel desktop.
Thanks mates.
Anthony

I tried 2 different firmware from SAMSmobile, after flashing in Odin, nothing changes. The phone reboots (if the case is ticked) and stays stuck on the samsung logo, after the vodafone splash screen.

maybe something went wrong in partition table during kies upgrade, do you tried a full system reinstall comprensive of pit image?
myabe this get phone back to life but i think you will lose efs.

Well normaly after flashing your right Firmware you should be able to acces recovery...

How can I perform what you call a "full system reinstall comprehensive of PIT image"?
I have stock firmware, but no PIT file or CSC or whatsoever.
what do you mean by losing EFS? (encryption ??)
Any help is much appreciated.

efs is a system partition wich contains your phone's hardware serial numbers, such as imei, wi-fi mac ecc... losing this means you can't connect to phone network until you restore it(i'm not sure you lose it)
i found this guide here on the forum to restore from brick's or similiar, i think you can try this if normal flashing don't work:

When you flash full firmware from Samsung (.tar.md5), it includes things such as bootloader, tz, modem, system, cache, preload and the recovery. Just make sure to download it from site such as sammobile, and you can check yourself if your .tar.md5 you're about to flash includes these things using i.e. 7zip.
Untick "auto reboot" option and flash it. After it's done, it won't auto reboot but Odin will change text to "RESET!", this is a signal for you that it's finished.
Hold on Vol-Up+Home+Power for about 7 seconds, until you see Samsung Galaxy S3 logo. It MUST enter stock recovery you've just flashed, unless your hardware is broken. From there you can select Wipe data / factory reset.
Good luck.

Yes this is what I did.
But after "RESET" doing it, holding the buttons won't let me reach the recovery.
Is there a way to access it ? like for instance a USB JIG allowed me to access the DOWNLOAD mode; whereas holding the buttons never let me.

I don't think so. Probably your buttons are broken then.

I still do not understand that NO software is able to address the phone, like the recovery mode does.
We can flash from a computer, how come not to wipe from a computer.
assuming that someone has no screen or broken buttons, i'm sure there's a way to access wipe and/or access the recovery to flash a stock rom.
Thanks

Hey, yes I tried the link, but again I cannot access the recovery to flash the .zip file.
When I hold the buttons as soon as the logo "galaxy s III GTI9300" appears, the screen goes black and the logo comes back again.
If I release one button, the vodafone splash screen appears, and the boot is stuck on the samsung logo.
I assume, the buttons are working because of what I just explained.
But again, I cannot access the recovery.
Last week, for some reason, after flashing I has a "setup wizard" from appeared, and crashed. that was the only time. I could see the lights under the touch buttons coming on. After the crash, I tried to reinstall and couldn't do it.
I am still sure there should be a way to wipe the nand completely or install from the SD card via the download mode.
Any help is welcome

I get same thing(galaxy s3 logo, black screen then normal boot when try accessing recovery) some time ago after installing philz reco, i flashed another recovery and now runs well, it sounds so strange that you still cant get at least stock recovery after a repartition and a full system reinstall... Maybe something get broke in the hardware...
