Need Expert help My A3000H tab went into metamode state, cant get into recovery mode.
HI
I have recently rooted my LENOVO A3000H tab.
From the start while i am trying to flash in ROM manager and Flashify it is saying CMW recovery is not available in your tab
So i tried to flash CMW recovery zip file downloaded from this XDA forum and tried, after that my tab stopped going into recovery mode
i tried using uncle tools, ROM manager,Flashify, and other .. BUt it restarts without going into boot/ recovery mode
And in the settings of my tab in the about tablet section my IMEI numbers are not visivble replaced by showing "Baseband Version" as Unknown.
I tried factory reset nothing changed... its restaring without entering into recovery or boot mode
Notable to connect to laptop using USB cable..
My SIMs and External SD cards are not detecteable now...
Phone became very slow
Slow wifi speed .. Everything became slow.:crying::crying:
Im getting worried and tensed .. Its new one gifted by my best friend ..

You should try flashing the same scatter file with another flash tool. I too was unsuccessful, with exactly the same symptoms. I searched the web and I did find a way, that too didn't work, so I tried the flash tool of that website with the firmware available at XDA. It worked. I can't put links here, so maybe I can mail it to you. *Make sure you hit the reset button before flashing and backup your NVRAM folder. You really don't want to lose your IMEI like I did.*
I fixed it and flashed CM11 ROM

Install the latest verson of kies on you computer.
Then in kies under "Tools" choose "firmware upgrade and initialisation".
Then give you model number "SM-N910?", next give serial number of the phone (you can find that on the sticker behind the battery in your phone).
Then you get a message that the "device can be initialised to its original setting"
Press ok and ok again. Then put your phone in download mode and connect to the computer and press "start upgrade".
Not working @dewingerd
Kies doesnt detect my phone. Bt drivers are installed correctly. It only opens in downloading mode

Happened to me also 2 days ago.
Your mobile only can enter download mode ? but when u try to go to recovery or just power it , nothing happened , right ??
Well , you should do as @dewingerd said carefully do these steps :
Initially you need to upgrade kies to the latest version (mine is : 3.2.15072_2) or this will fail cuz it failed with me the first time.
1) take of your battery , and write down your Serial number .
2) open kies first.
3) open mobile in download mode then connect it . KIES WILL NOT RECOGNIZE THE MOBILE
4) Choose : Tools >> Firmware upgrade and initialisation
5) Kies will ask you about your mobile name , TYPE : SM-N910C , ALL CAPITAL LETTERS OR KIES WILL NOT RECOGNIZE IT
6) if you did not type the name correctly , you will get a message that kies does not know this name , so start again , type SM-N910C
7) then you will get another box asks for your serial number , enter it (Not case sensitive).
8) Kies then will inform you that it is going to prepare the phone and download the firmware for your device and that you have to connect it in download mode.
9) unplug your mobile , plug it again and click start.
10) Now the process is going to take a while depending on your internet connection (downloading about 2GB), do not unplug the phone and do not allow your laptop/PC to sleep.
11) cautions that I read before : you better not connect or disable any usb devices during the process.
12) suddenly , you will hear you mobile starting up again , congratulations
Q: What about my data , apps and stuff ?
A: All is gone except for those on your External card , sorry , nothing can be done for that (May be you should remove your SDcard first just in case).
Good Luck

Now , this is another case , as long as you can press power and the mobile starts up , showing the first logo , and next the animation , then this is no big problem .
just first tell me what is your note4 variant ? C F H ? can you root and install recovery ?
What happened to your mobile and resulted this ?

thank for your quick reply, my variant is n910c ans yes i can still install recovery. I upgraded from 5.0.1 to 5.1.1 poland using odin and everything works well. I flashed Googy N4 kernel using TWRP 2.8.1.1 and everything still works well. My problem began when I made a backup of my 5.1.1 stock rom and flash infinity rom which end up in bootloop. So I tried restoring my backup but whenever it got to DATA RESTORING it keeps failing and flashing back the 5.1.1 poland stock firmware through odin keeps ending up on the SAMSUNG boot animation screen.

which version of googy kernel ?
Well whatever , TWRP 2.8.1.1 won't work with 5.1.1 bootloader , try TWRP 2.8.7.0

GoogyMax N4 v2.0. I have tried TWRP 2.8.7.0 but still the same.
After flashing stock firmware using odin, on my stock recovery i found this error
"E:failed to mount /efs (invalid argument)
dm-verity verification failed.......
need to check drk first......."
I have search through the internet but i can't get a clear picture of what it meant.
Does anyone has an idea of what it meant and how to resolve the error?

Hi again ,
Looks like a locked phone and was unlocked in a wrong way or something like that.
read this thread , looks like the same problem.
in short , you need the 4 files firmware to be flashed via oden and as stated in page 2 there , you flash them without pit file.
You can find the 4-files firmware here but this is not 5.1.1 firmware , give it a try , if failed too , search for 5.1.1 4-files firmware.
here is another site but I do not really know if they are 4-files or the single file .
Good luck.

Try to download the appropriate firmware with Samfirm_reborn0.3.6.2 you'll find on Github. Unpack the .zip and start as admin.
Insert full device name and region and additionally check "binary nature" box.
It should download the latest! ROM multiple file format from Samsungs servers directly, at least it did for all my 7 devices (just in case) before I rooted them.
BUT I know that for N910V nothing is found and don't know about S model.
KIES I never used as I read it sometimes conflicts with Odin.
If files are downloaded flash with Odin adding the different files in their input fields. (selve explaining names)

i am also facing same problem pls help me out if the solution is there/
I rooted my mobile which worked perfectly, after the initial reboot after rooting. the mobile will not boot since the battery died tho it just goes to a pink static screen after the logo.
It wont let me boot into recovery but i can still boot into download, however now Odin will not see my mobile and i have tried all the drivers uninstalling and re installing to no avail.
Tried several Pc's and new USB cables!
Bump
bump
Update
So after brute force restarting into download mode several times i was able to get Odin to detect my mobile, however the sm-a310 failed, i then used the old root file which let me back into my phone, but again after 1 restart im back at square one so all is not lost ... its defo soft bricked and i can gain access very rarely but i don't know where to go from here.

You`ve to flash the Stock firmware through Odin, then do a Factory Reset.
After successful booting , then you try to root it again.
Got to Sammobile website and download any unbranded Firmware perfect for your device and flash through Odin in Download Mode.
BTW, how you rooted your device ?
And Make sure to check your device`s Battery level before doing any thing.
