I didn't think there was anyway to brick Samsung tablets but it seems I've at least semi bricked my T500. I was attempting to install the LOS 18.1 ROM that was just posted in the guides thread. I did something wrong and got the "can only flash official" warning. Made the big mistake of flashing the official AP only. Now I can no longer get into recovery OR download. Even holding vol up and down and then plugging in USB doesn't work. Screen just remains blank. Same with holding vol up and power. Nothing. Can only boot to system.

Download mode works, Odin and Heimdall can connect both, flashing works, but still stucked in this screen.
Tried different Rom's, rotohammer's too
What can i do now?
Please Help
sry for my bad english, I'm german
First off, you should post this type of question in the clockwork topic or the Q&A forum.
To answer your question, go here and follow instructions to install overcom rom.
It can also be helpful to repartition the device using the hidden_p1.pit file.

A brick is a dead piece of rock. Your phone is not bricked if you just have a bad flash. If it has no life at all then it is a brick. Until then it is a sponge.
I have a pretty weird problem with my i9500 which just updated to 5.0.1 Build#I9500ZSUHOC2
I used odin 3.10.6 to flash open TWRP 2.8.4.
Everything goes smooth and restart successfully than I turn it off to enter Recovery by press HOME + Up volume + Power and see the logo flash twice.
And it shows "no command" than enter stock recovery (e3).
This is not my first S4 but previous is i9505 and this new one is i9500, so I am pretty sure I didn't missed step (or did I)?
I've tried many custom recovery but still get same result.
And I fellow the guide on this page on trueandroid (sorry for not able to post a link)
Is any one has same issue and please help me to flash.
Thanks
Why 2.8.4.0 and where did you find it? 2.8.6.0 is available for your device here.
Tried but still no work.
And just thought of one thing, do I need to unlock BL before install custom recovery?
But I found on another post, i9500 intl Exynos is unlocked already.....
Solved by flashing a modified file by Xialuo in China forum, thanks pal !!
HELP!, Just now, I attemped to flash the BOH4 modem I downloaded from the phoenixrom thread using mobile odin app.
Now, I am unable to boot into recovery mode. when I attempt to boot the phone, it hangs at the galaxy s5 screen with the top left showing 'recovery booting...' in blue. I am only able to boot into download mode at this moment! Someone please help!
Flash a stock ROM from download mode then?
Can you please post a link for that? sorry for the inconvenience!
