Hi all,
I really need you guys help there..
I own a Asian version galaxy tab...
I first wanted to try out modaco r3 kernel so i flash the non-EXT4 version and it brings me to boot loop( doesn't get pass first samsung screen....)
then i had no clue about what to do and decided to flash back to HK rom with odin and when it is done it does get pass the first screen but it is now stuck and the samsung screen...where it occasionally vibrate and is stuck there
I really have no clue what's going on and it's the first time i encountered such problem since I've been a member in xda
I really hope if anyone can help out and lead me somewhere i can just turn my tab on and use it..
many thanks..
-Wilson
Also I've root my phone before and when i am done with the odin flash for the firmware...it actually gets me into recovery instead of to reboot directly
not sure what else is needed for you guys to help out...but if i can provide anything, please let me know
@season007
I encountered a similar problem just yesterday night while trying to flash to the New Modaco Kernel and Rom. While flashing the kernel, ext4 conversion took place and since then it just took me to a samsung boot window where a yellow window with half written text along with constant vibrations occurred.
I was able to get rid of it by installing Roto JMI v2 rom using Odin. ( Just put the "pit" file and the PDA rom and start. It takes about 5 minutes and my device is working again! P.S its a pretty good rom. Blazing fast!

Do anyone know where I can find these images?
If you get stuck, this will bring you back

Here's where I got the ODIN3 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=599054&d=1305645578
Did that work for the IO Tab, the P7510? It looks like that link is for a different model number.
Its for I/O tab. I got stuck and made it with a system dump from someone else. The boot logo is for 10.1v though but everything works fine. Only use if u get stuck in a loop. I had to manually flash 3.1 from Pershoots to update.

I sent mine in. Samsung Level 3 support is what you need. Make sure you registered your device first.

For me Odin seems to be the only option as well as adb and fastboot dont recognise the tab.
When using odin I get either "write error" at the end of process if I try to send just the .tar.md5 file listed in first post, or, if I check repartition I get "error in line 1455" so I figure the next step will be repartition with a .pit file included as well...
Question is....which .pit to use - any solid fact or informed opinions from anyone much appreciated?
I am happy to be guinea pig as my tab is already "semi-bricked" and good for nothing and Samsung in France have said no service or guarantee available here, only in the USA....WTF!!?? So, I might just as well get reckless and see what happens...
As an aside......samfirmware?? is this now a pay service before one can download any firmwares? I see they have a GT-P7510 section indicated but inaccessible because of "webprotect". I am loathe to cough up the money for their "premium service" just to be able to enter the section and maybe find that they have nothing to offer....
I am not a leecher so will happily pay if they have something to offer, but will not pay just to see if that is the case...anybody got any info on what they have available?
Ta very much

Thanks! I used ODIN3 (v1.00) to flash the image and successfully "unbricked" my tab which was previously stuck in a boot loop. Was pleasantly surprised to see that user data was preserved.
The OTA finally downloaded and now I just have to wait for the battery to recharge so it can apply the update...
bonzai your odin flashable md5 was awesome, can u make another one based on 3.1 please?
it would help this community alot
Guys, Ma name's Vasanth And i just registered as i found this site very useful.
Here is my problem.
Today i was mingling with my phone and i found an update for my S plus to 2.3.6. So i got to a forum and downloaded Odin and the 2.3.6 firmware, i started odin v 1.83, and ran it but failed but still the phone worked. Then i started Odin v1.43 multi-android or something. Then i t started with the OPS and the One package. it also sent a message "Big partition" 4 times and the AMSS download began and took ages, so i force closed the Odin. And i disabled my phone from the Download Mode. i got in the Normal mode and i got this Phone connecting to the PC with Dots and a hazard yellow mark on the Dots. I think the Firmware is messed up. I bought it in Dubai and got it to India. It's warranty Card is in Russian language and so does the Instruction i think.
I need solution and quick
Please and extremely please help
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Vasanth

Can you say how do i flash the phone again? I'm pretty new at Phones and I need help with this android and When i tried updating as the guide says.
It goes
"Big partition size" 4 times and begins downloading the AMSS. Should i let it go or? what?
Read this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1578821
Download my attachment, run Odin as administrator and use my AriesVE.ops
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1405357 download the firmware (or any other I9001 (!!) firmware you would like to install).
Restart your phone into download mode, run Odin and select one package. Pick the file from the unzipped archive and start Odin. Wait till its finished.
Thanks for all the help. The Phone came back from the brick. I finally unbricked it.
I appreciate all your work. This site has became home for my Phone and i will come and learn more about my phone from here and will make this home for my Android.
You guys have been alot of help for me. I won't forget this.

So, just to be certain I understand (because I'm eager to root my Tab Pro 12.2):
You are talking about rooting your SM-T900, right?
You used the file in the link and followed the steps to root the SM-P900 except that you used Odin 3.09 to root your SM-T900, right?

you are CORRECT. this is the same file i rooted the "NOTE PRO 12.2" but i returned it because i dont need pen so i grabbed the "TAB PRO 12.2"
yes i have the SM-T900
You dont have to change Odin to 3.09. I used 3.07 and it worked fine.
Mine is stuck flashing cache.img
Tried both with Odin 3.07 and Oding 3.09
Figured out proper procedure:
#1 If you're soft bricked flash any full stock recovery image. If you're functional go to next step.
#2 After done rebooting, reboot to stock recovery by holding Power + Volume Up and releasing power upon seeing the Samsung splash screen.
#3 Wipe cache using stock recovery.
#4 Reboot into download mode by holding Power + Volume Down, press Up when told to do so
#5 Use EITHER Odin 3.07 OR 3.09 to flash CF-Auto-Root package for SM-P900, yes, the image for the NOTE PRO will root the TAB PRO
#6 Patiently wait for reboot.
#7 Profit.
Worked Perfectly
I just used Odin 3.07 as well. Worked fine. I'm all rooted.
I downloaded the file linked in the first post on this thread, then
just followed the steps here:
http://androidcentral.us/2014/03/root-samsung-galaxy-note-pro-12-2/
It went quick. I did not get a message on the Odin screen that said "PASS". I did see some messaging and then something said "successful"
It had rebooted and Root Checker said it was rooted.
I'm very happy. Thanks to all who tried this out and then posted details.
I'm thinking of getting the Tab 4. I cant find a forum or rooting help. Any ideas please share.

This root method isnt working for my T900
I have been trying all day to root my T900 with Odin and Chainfire.
Followed the instructions and Odin recpgnizes the device, but when the actual flashing starts it gets stuck, the screen shows just thin horizontal stripes and Odin shows "fail".
Luckily I can get the T900 back into download mode (which show there was a problem with thw update) and then flash stock recovery using Odin, which restores the T900 to how it was before I tried rooting... but with tripped Kn0x and no root!
I tried T900 and P900 chainf. methods and Odin v.3.07 and 3.09... but same each time.
Funny thing is that when Odin is connected it shows I9505 next to the Odin Logo in the window, not T900. Is this normal?
Would appreciate any help.
Ps: yes debugging was ticked on T900.

Thanks for the tip, but I already tried a "normal" USB cable and reinstalled USB drivers.... no luck.
Got a message fron Kies 3 saying my unit was not compatible when I tried to flash T900 recovery as well.
Would help if someone with the T900 could confirm if Odin shows connection to T900 ... or to I9505 like mine shows.
I installed some ported Note 3/Note Pro SPens apps (incl. SDK) from here in XDA, made for the S4, which enable Spen features.
Maybe thats why I9505 shows in Odin?
BTW.That ported ActionMemo app on my T900 works great....like on my Note 3 with handwriting "lassoo" - which was missing on my Tab version. So now my T900 is very similar to a P900, just with capacitive stylus or finger instead of SPen. If I had root I think I could even open that popup SPen menue by gesture.
Tried to root & bricked - on 2nd TM-900
Hello. New to this part of the forum but not to rooting Android devices (I have rooted my Galaxy Note 2, my wife's S4, my daughters Nabi Tablet and several HTC phones). A few days ago I got my 1st TM-900 (build KOT49H.T900UEUAND4) and attempted to root after setting it all up (naturally). I used Odin 3.07 and the procedure on Android Central which had me download the CF-Auto-Root-v2wifi-v2wifixx-smt900.tar.md5 file. I followed the directions and the tablet seemed to get stuck flashing cache.img. I waited for what seemed like quite a while and finally ended up pulling the cord - was unable to get into recovery/download mode to flash it back. Luckily I bought it 3 days ago and returned it for a new one. I really want to root, but now are a bit leery. I see where it says to flash with a SM-P900 file. Is this right and will it work with build T900UEUAND4 on a TM-900?
Also does it take it quite awhile to complete the process? the phones I rooted went quick, this took almost 15 minutes (or longer if I left it). I'm thinking I got "antsy" and should have waited longer on the 1st one. Can't afford to brick this one but feel naked without my root. Words of wisdom/advice for the second one?

I was about to try what you did, and now I'm re-thinking it. This latest update came around about 10 days ago, so like you, I don't know if the SM-T900 tar file will bring me the same results as your brick brought you.

My the version of Odin I downloaded has something similar (forget the excat wording) but if you look in the same folder/location as the Odin exe file resides you will see an Odin3.ini file - if you open it you will see that same text on the Title line - id did a quick compare between different Odin downloads and that seemed to be the only difference I saw. I edited mine to say Hello Michael.

NB5 is written on the end of the build number.
Think I'll wait until the weekend then try to root again using an older xp laptop.

Which Tab4 do you have? Tmobile? If so I have a zip file you can use to odin back to stock. I had the same thing happen to me when I tried to root. Once it gets to that point, kies doesn't seem to function. But odin still recognizes the device. I have an SM-T337T. Let me know.
Could you post the link of the rooting method site please?

now when i connect it to kies it says device not supported and screen flashes on off. im using a win xp machine will that make any difference aswell.

Only think i've found for that firmware is a UK version. Not quite sure why there isn't a US version readily available. Anyhow, You can download it from here. The version from June might be able to be rooted using towelroot. But the May version definately can be rooted using that method. Here is the link Hope it helps.
