If you use the pit file from this thread above with this ee4 download link below it should work.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1172182&highlight=vzw+ee4
This is the official vzw file. I had to use this one in order to get it to run back to stock ee4. All other ee4 odin files did not work for me.

Tab 2 7" totall meltdown when attempted root!

Ok, i haven't been at this very long but i thought i would try to root my GT-P3110 tab.
So i did and tried everything here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1722745&highlight=galaxy+tab+2+7+p3110
Resulting i bootloop, and i have searched everywhere for a solutionbut nothing helped, so i tried reinstall the
firmware (from SamMobile.com), but it failed too and now im in the state
where it says "firmware upgrade encountered an issue...". I've tried redoing it with no result...
Is my tablet totally bricked or is i possible to fix?
I think it is soft brick as you could enter download mode and recovery mode try to download firmware from www.samfirmware.com and enter download mode and try flashing with pc odin
Make sure that samsung drivers are installed and that when you connect tab to pc a yellow line inside it a port with somenumber appear in odin before flashing
Sent from my GT-P5100 using xda app-developers app
done it!
Yeah, iv'e done that several times with different .md5 files and all i get is this:
View attachment 1282334
Some experiments
1-Make sure that samsung drivers are installed and reboot computer afterwards for them to be applied or even install kies and reboot afterwards
2-Connect device to different usb port and try again try those usb in rear case not the front may be reboot afterwards
3-Download file again may be corrupted download and make sure it is for you model number specifically for 3110 not any other
4-Download odin again and try version 1.85 works best for me
5- Make sure you are in download mode not recovery mode it says downloading now do not turn off target
6- Make sure extension of file is tar or tar.md5
7- See if you could enter recovery mode by volume up+power in boot and if it is cwm try to flash cm9 or 10 from site www.teamhacksung.com for your device 3110 not any device else if you entered old stock recovery then connect with kies and try option of recovery in it make sure computer connected to internet

As i know pit files ard somewhat dangerous if used incorrectly leave them as last resort as they format system completely and repartition it and do not try pit files individually try those which come with the stock rom only they are specifically for this rom if you download stock rom and find pit file so you could use it if you did not find pit file in the stock rom only a tar file so do not use a pit file from external source
Sent from my GT-P5100 using xda app-developers app
Then this might be the problem? But if i reinstall the stock .pit file it should do the trick? Got to solve this man, thanks for all the help!

Solved!
I managed to solve it using stock pit file and and stock firmware in Odin!
Thanks for the help!

I only can get to download mode galaxy GT-I9003

Hello guys, I was trying to root my galaxy GT-I9003 to install an ICS rom and I had 2.3.6,,, I entered download mode and tried to use odin but it said failed. so i pushed the power button to swtich the phone off and it gave me a screen with cellphone and computer and yellow rectangle and it doesn't start or go to recovery mode the only thing i can do is to take the battery our for a minute then put it again and the only thing it does is to go to download mode and i tried to use odin again or samsun kies but nothing is working. how can i get this phone to work again please with the old OS or to start flashing a rom again?
Thanks,
Try rebooting the system and connecting and flashing again using odin.
If it still doesn't work reinstall samsung kies software and try connecting and flashing using odin.
If it still doesn't work, report here and someone will try to guide further. All the best.

I tried odin 1.7 and 3.07 and both are not working
I think the xxkpe zip file comes with Odin 1.83. Try it out as well.

Ok. Try installing xxkpe with pit on odin 1.83 then install your stock rom with odin 1.83 then it must work i think.

[Q] Q: Can not flash any roms on 4.0.4

I rooted my friends tablet gt-p5113 with 4.0.4. I used a different work around method to get the root to stick. I got clock work on but I can't seem to flash any roms on his tablet. I tried using 3 different roms already and I keep getting the same message with Andy on his back and his front door open with a red triangle saying can not open package or some thing along those lines. Any ideas?
I think flash stock firmware from for example www.samfirmware.com then begin again from the beginning !!!
When use a root file next time via odin untick auto reboot then reboot manual vol up+power then if question as fix recovery say yes

I'm kind of at loss. Would that mean that I would have to down grade to the 4.0.3. firmware?
The Tablet is already rooted. Using the method that you listed and using the latest clockwork mod file.
So may be try flashing another version of cwm as 6.0.1.0 or 6.0.1.2 or so via odin for example and make sure you are flashing right firmwares for your device specific model number
Make sure you have a proper root via app like root check basic and install supersu from market
Put the firmware in both internal and external sd and try flashing from both, may be one of them will work
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
I did install su. That's how I know I rooted it right. I'll try reflashing an updated firmware. Thanks for the help

Providing more info can get you better results, like rom /link, cwm version, procedures, this way others can help you diagnose your problem. A screen shot of"about tablet" is also very helpful.

[Q] Cant unlock bootloader or Restore to stock or re root

i rooted it already, the only thing ive changed is the font on the phone, i want to update to the 4.2.1. jelly bean ROM but i didnt know about unlocking the bootloader till i tried to unlock it today and nothing is working. Ive tried everything with odin, CASUAL, nothing. so i figured if i restore back to stock then root again incase something went wrong and it wont let me in odin. Keeps saying fail. I download root checker and it tells me i dont have proper root access. Even though i have superuser. I have no clue what the problem is now and im stuck. Please help ..
What is your current phone info under About Phone? How exactly does Odin fail? There's not much that can go wrong address long as you're inputting the correct files and are actually in download mode. What you could do is just:
1) Odin flash MrRobinson rooted TW 4.1 JB
2) use EZ Unlock v.1.2 to unlock
3) install your preferred custom recovery
4) flash whichever rom you want

Could you tell me if you have "su" in this directory : System/xbin/
Are you saying that your phone will not boot into download mode using the three finger combo? Or are you saying the file that you flash in Odin is failing? There's a little ambiguity here. If you can't boot into download mode BUT you do have su, try either:
1) without quotes, this adb command: "adb reboot download"
OR
2) Download Terminal Emulator, then type:
su
reboot download
Then try Odin flashing a stock image.

Ahh ok, clears it up for me. Well, Droidstyle's guide has the stock images for VRALG1 and VRBLK3 (I think). For you, it's probably easier to use VRALG1 stock image then root again.

I also can not install anything with out fail in odin! When I try to install anything from sd card I get failed to verify signature, I do not have unlocked bootloader or rooted phone. its completely stock. Is there anyway to unlock bootloader from odin? my main problem is the SIM card Check in the begging of the phone as I do not have a Verizon Sim at all.
Just tried and nothing. After a minute the last thing Odin says is "end..." and nothing happens

What are you trying to do? If you're using Odin to flash anything, your phone needs to be in download mode: hold power button, volume down, and home. Odin will not recognize your phone otherwise.
