samsung galaxy tab shutting down when i lock it

I flashed a JK rom onto my tmobile tab with voice calling enabled and everytime the phone locks, I am unable to unlock and have to reset... any ideas? I have tried using a button remapper to no avail...

i've hade this before on my milestone, and i had to send it to repair... maybe u can rescue ur tab by flashing a new firmware with odin

Any more help?

did u already try to do a factory reset?
if not, u can do it with these steps:
1. power off the galaxy tab
2. turn it on while holding down the volume up key and pressing the home button (yes, the capacitiv touchscreen button <-- i dont know if this is necessary but i do it always like this )
3. select data/factory reset (navigate with the volume buttons)
4. reboot!
if this doesnt help then post again and ill see if i can help u!
greetings

[Q] Download mode

Hello.
I have a problem with a Stock G3.
How do i get it in to recovery? Tried power + volum up/down + home etc etc..
The problem is that the phone has a locked security pattern and the customer does not remember his e-mail/password so i need to rest it.
Plz help

try it like this : Vol down/up + home + power

dont work

Stock ROMs does NOT include CWM...
You should flash a rom with CWM or g3mod kernel.
Maybe you mean download mode?

sorry - not recovery but download mode, changed topic...
is it possible to reset the phone in download mode?

Recovery is vol up+vol down+home+power(All buttons should be pressed in order). Hold till you see I5801 bootlogo. Try it.
Edit : - This is for recovery. In download mode you can t factory reset.

Okaj so i cant reset the phone in download mode, what can i do?
The phone has a locked security pattern and they dont know the e-mail/password to unlock.
Can i use Kies to factory reset the phone? Any suggestions?

You can flash stock xxjps or flash another rom

Uh as I said you can boot into recovery (vl up/down + home + power) then wait till it boots. Or you can reflash the ROM if you know which on it is

Go in download mode and flash kyrillos rom non oc version.
Then go in recovery and wipe data/cache/dalvik cache
Then flash stock rom.
Now you are sure you have a factory phone.
Ps: this is the long way. If you just need recovery flash the rom you prefer

So much not needed to do a simple factory reset!
Do this:
turn off phone
press home & vol up/down(both) keeping them pressed press power button and on gt-I5800/1 logo release all buttons
you'll see stock samsung recovery(just 4 options available)
use vol keys to navigate and home to select
select wipe data/factory reset and let it happen
Done!

This does not work on this phone for some reason Doing it exactly as you have described...
Must probably do it the hard way and flash CWM etc...

Goto download mode and flash a .tar as one package that contains only datafs.rfs. You ll find it in CyanogenMod thread I think.

With cache.rfs for a full reset
Or a better idea
Open back cover of the phone
On the bottom left (near the screw) just where the battery ends there is what small hole
That's the hard reset switch
Press it with a small pin and done!
Remove sdcard if you wanna preserve sdcard data

I know you're device is S5360B but my device is S5360DXLCD1.
I think you've signed in samsung account will prevent factory reset even hard reset.
In phone settings in my phone it's 100 percent preventing factory reset in settings..
But in hard reset sometimes it's preventing to hard reset when i signed in my samsung account.. Sometimes it's not preventing.
My suggestion is you have to signed out your samsung aacount bro.

if stuck on bootloop go to recovery and wipe data..

you can use cwm to wipe system and data and root/flash a custom rom
or you can use odin to flash stock rom (see dokys thread at top of dev section for firmware)

my device isnt rooted so i believe i cannot do the cwm method?

no, u can go into recovery without rooting
Steps:
1. Power off ur mobile
2. press volume up + home + power buttons
when u r in recovery the touch screen is disabled so u should use
volume up/down button to scroll up/down
power button to go back
home button to select

start odin in admin mode (right click run as admin)

Android process media has stopped!!!!

This happens to me also. the problem is that i cannot use my phone anymore. Every time i open the phone the "android process media has stopped" keeps on popping out. Then the next thing i'll do is to press the ok button. After that it pops out again. Then doing it or pressing the ok button several times shifts the screen off my phone to black then i can not use it anymore.
What can i do? pls help me
Thanks :crying::crying::crying::crying:

i really want to get the remaining files in the phone's memory. Is there another way for that? factory reset will be the last option.

No bud, its the only way or you can flash your phone with PC. And that will make your data erased too...

I had a charging problem on the 6.0 beta and was able to solve it by using adb sideload and reinstalling. It fixed my problem without losing any data. Try it - hey you got nothing to lose at this point right?

Use Tethered CWM if you have a locked bootloader, or use TWRP if you have an unlocked bootloader... Do a factory reset from there (CWM or TWRP) which will preserve your internal storage (/data/media)....
