No problem let me know if it worked

[Q] Tab does not boot onto recovery nor download mode.

I received a private message in regards to my question whether my tab is coma bricked or hard bricked. I explained to him that my tab does not work at all..no sign of life..i cant get into both recovery or download mode. HIS advice was to give it 4 hours. FOR ME, its an extremely anxious 4 hour wait..can someone please tell me whether or not this is a hard bricked? I hope to God it's just a coma brick ((((.
And in case you're wondering as to HOW this even happened lol. I use one sd card for both my tab and galaxy note..anyways, me being the unorganized noob that I am, I forgot that I had two JB BOOT LOADERS - one for my p5100 tab and the other for my gtn7000..and suprise, suprise, it was the wrong bootloader that I had flashed..
Plllleaase, someone helllp ( this is my brothers tab and he will knock me out when he finds out :'(

Probably your tab is hard bricked because you flashed wrong bootloader
Anyways try following if something happens
1.put tab on charge and see it switch on
2.long press power button
3.continuously press and release power button
Best of luck

if so can you still install philz recovery from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2468441 ??
also will the root method work from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2433853 ??

After I rooted my Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 7" using prerooted.tar.md5, I had the same issue. The screen kept flickering and now I want to unroot to go back to the original manufacturing setting. I just flashed this firmware and it restored to the original condition except the flickering problem still exists. Please help.

unbrick my galaxy tab 3 10.1 P5200
First I greatly appreciate this forum; you may actually be able to help - - - -

Now it will not charge at all - - -no battery prompt, no screen, no nothing, went completely dead. My question is how can I restore power to my TAB 3? I have tried most of the suggestions from google sites; and an IT friend of mine indicated this sounds like a firmware issue and I would have to send to manufacture - - -I purchased it 1 1/2 months ago brand new; I LOVE MY GALAXY TAB 3; currently in a war zone and it would take forever to send back and get back; can someone give me some hope on restoring power so I do not have to send back . . .Thanks to all of you, be safe.

Follow these steps :
1) First download Samsung firmware from GT-P3110 Firmware
2) Download the P3110 firmware based on your region or from any region but you need to wipe/cache reset in case you are going to flash from the region you are not residing.
3) Extract the firmware using winrar,winzip or 7zip,you will get a files with tar.md5 extension..
4) Open odin,please see only these options are checked. Auto-reboot and F.Reset Time,,plese uncheck all other options.
5) click on PDA and select the firmware you have got after extraction
6) Now click on start.
7) you should get a message in the left bottom panel saying "Successful".
8) your tablet will restart.
9) switch it off by pressing Power off button
10) Now immediately press Power button+volume up button for few seconds until you see samsung boot logo and leave power button but keep on pressing volume up button until you see android logo i.e recovery mode.
11) Wipe factory reset from menu and restart.
Enjoy Buddy.

GT=N8000 is not booting , stuck at downloading mode

hi
i am trying to get this thing on , but it keep showing me "Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1" screen , nothing else
tried to hard reset , so i pressed power+ vol up and asked me to restart or continue
so i continue , and i am stuck at a creen showing me android logo with "Downloading... do not turn off target!!"
its been like this for 4-5 hours
there is something written in the upper left corner
ODIN MODE
product name : GT-N8000
custom binary download : No
current binary : Samsung official
system status : Official

any help please ?

Be more spesific. What was the last thing you've done before that issue?
Btw, maybe it's time to use ODIN and install some rom. There are plenty of "flashing" guides in this forum and on internet. Please feel free to google: "how to flash on n8000 with ODIN". If you have any more trouble, question or something like it feel free to ask. Just be sure you mentioned me in your question so I can now there is a question that asked to me.
Have a nice day.
Edit: I found my answer too hard to understand so here is some hints:
You should search for "how to use odin".
You should download a firmware that corresponds to your tablet. (THIS IS IMPORTANT. IF YOU WON'T BE CAREFUL YOU CAN DAMAGE YOUR DEVICE)
There are plenty of guides that explains how to flash a firmware to a samsung phone. Don't worry, that way is effective for almost every samsung device (except for the new ones) and will be succesfull for your n8000 too!

the tablet is not mine , my niece was using it
it was running good until several days and stopped working
when i go to download mode , it keep restarting for ever
i went to some local shop in my area and they said they can't fix it ( maybe its a hardware issue ? )

If there is a boot loop it is more likely being a software issue but I was wrong before too. So did you tried to flash a rom?

installed kies , but the logo keep running on my desktop
ok , now my niece told me there is some important files and photos on it
how to restore those files without formatting ?
i can't even access to the device , and no microSD card

Just install the firmware. That's the only way you can open up your files with the resources you have. If it's that important, I strongly suggest you to go to a Samsung service and tell them your story. If you want to do it yourself, search for: installing custom recovery, installing rom. When you switch between different roms you don't have to format your data but I can't remember the case with the Odin.

Hi, i have the same problem.
I have a galaxy note 10.1 2013. It originally had ics. I updated my software in the middle of this year.
Today, my tab worked fine, as it usually, does. I placed it in my bag at 5:30 pm after playing and surfing the internet. At 11pm, i took it out and it was a bit hot and it seemed to be stuck at the screen where it says "samsung galaxy note 10.1".
I tried to restart my tab but it still remains stuck in the same screen. When i plugged it in, it shows that im charging. But when i start it up, its still stuck in the same screen.
When i pressed the power button and the volume up button, it gets to this screen which says
Warning!! (Blahblah something about custom os blahblah) volume up: continue volume down: cancel(restart phone)
What do i do? I didnt do anything weird or different today than i would have any other day.
Please, i need your help. Thank you!
