Sorted it now
If stuck at bootscreen turn off device, then hold power button and volume up to enter standard android recovery mode, then select clear dalvic and clear cache, reboot and that sorted it

i discovered that i can enter cwm recovery
But i made a full wipe, it still doesn't help.
Do i need to flash in offical rom?? Where can i find hk's rom??
Thx and please help

If you still have CWM recovery, then your attempt to ODIN the stock ROM did not work.
What version CWM do you have?
Find the stock ROMs here, but make sure your model is p3100 not P3113 or similar.

I didn't use ODIN to recover. I just had a full wipe but it doesn't work.
I am having CWM on V6.0.1.0
Is the following process correct?
Open Odin-> Tablet in download mode-> Connect-> Choose the downloaded zip in PDA column
THX !!!

you can;'t use a zip file in odin
you have to extract the contents and point to the .tar.md5 file
example P3100ZTOLP3_P3100UBLP7_HOME.tar.md5

[Q]Ending a Probable Soft Brick

I tried flashing CM9.1 using ROM Manager tonight on my GT-P3113 and it's now stuck on a boot loop. The blue Cyanogen creature comes onscreen with a flashing chest and the background has this electronic blue vortex look. I'm unable to do anything and holding the power button only reboots into the loop. Is there a way to fix this?

Best thing to try is returning to stock configuration. Do you know how to use ODIN to flash the stock ROM? is this a US Wifi model ?

It is a US WiFi model. I used ODIN to flash recovery but if there are instructions on the site, I'd take those as well.

If you can still get into CWM, then i would recommend you try flashing this stock ROM which is 4.1.1 JB
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1861370
Which version of CWM recovery are you using? Make sure its 6.0.1.9 or higher.
If you prefer to return to stock ICS 4.0.4 you can download the odin stock firmware here
http://www.hotfile.com/dl/170457040/052efe5/P3113UEBLH2_P3113XARBLH2_XAR.zip.html
CM9 is outdated and no longer being supported.
CM10 based ROM are available on the forum, but be careful and follow instructions in the thread exactly.
It is possible to hard brick this device permanently so be careful.
DO NOT DO A FACTORY RESET OR DATA WIPE FROM STOCK RECOVERY

I can boot into recovery if that's what you mean. I do believe that was the version of CWM that I installed. I'll go into download mode and flash that one. I need a link to Odin though. I have no idea why I deleted it, and the links I followed were no longer valid.

Nvm. I found an Odin download.

for the 4.1.1 JB rom you can use CWM.
For the stock 4.0.4. ISC use ODIN

As you can tell, I'm a bit of a noob. So I need to boot into recovery for the 4.1.1 then? That is, Power + Volume Up?

Power + vol up. When you see the samsung logo, release the power but continue to hold vol+up until CWM displays. Make sure you are in CWM, not the stock recovery.
If this doesn't fix the boot problem then ODIN flash the stock ICS from the link I provided.use odin 1.8.5
That would remove any corruption caused by the failed CM9 ROM flash, hopefully.

Here's a quick tutorial on flashing odin roms.
ignore the model and rom that doesn't match yours
1. download samsung kies to get the correct driver for gt-p3113
2. download odin3 v.1.85
3. download Stock Firmware
4. install Kies
5. extract Odin3-v1.85.zip
6. extract P3113xxxxxxx.zip until you get file P3113xxxxxxxxxxx1_HOME.tar.md5
7. turn off your tablet
8. enter download mode (press volume up button + power button about 5 seconds)
9. plug the usb cable to your pc and your tablet
10. run Odin3 v1.85.exe
11. check if pc recognize your tablet by seeing ID:COM turn yellow and "Added!!" message in the message box lower left odin window.
12. klik PDA button and put P3113xxxxxxx.tar.md5
13. make sure to uncheck re-partition
14. click start
15. odin processing takes about 5 minutes, wait patiently.
16. if there's a "SUCCEED" in the message box, your tablet will restart
17. wait about 10 minutes, you should get your ICS boot

Flashed stock ICS and.....it works!
Thanks a lot man. That's the first and last time I try to flash from RM. Gonna flash that stripped down JB ROM now though.

I now have JB 4.1.1 and am veery happy. You're a lifesaver.

Can you get back in to Download mode and install a custom recovery? If so, try that, then use the recovery to flash your ROM.

You stated in the OP that you had a 32 GB, so you'll need a 32 GB .PIT. However, I don't believe that is your problem as a .PIT defines the partition table layout on the device. That should not have been changed at all. I'd try redownloading the ROM you want and try again, or I'd choose another ROM. Also, are you 100% sure that the ROM you are using is compatible with your tablet?

[Q] N8020 semi brick,stuck startup logo,No Recovery Mode!

Hello All,
My N8020 is now semi brick after trying to flash it back to stock.It was on custom rom before but showing different errors so i decided to change the rom...First i tried to install another custom rom which was cynogenmod 10 but after intstalling this rom from cwm phone stuck at cynogenmod startup logo i waited for long time but still nothing.Then tried different versions of cynogen roms but same...After all this i decided to install a official rom so i flashed this with
N8020XXBMA3_N8020XSABMA2_N8020XXBMA1_HOME.tar
but now the real problem started..Now i can boot phone in download mode but not in recovery mode at all...Then i tried to flash a cwm via odin and get "PASS" messege in odin but still no recovery mode...Tried to flash to flash clockwork recovery several time but nothing changed and then i check in download mode the custom flash counter increase every time i try to flash cwm...then i searched the stock recovery for 8020 but when i try to flash it via odin i always get "FAIL"...
Now i m out of ideas and searching for a real solution....SO can anybody please tell me what to do next to get it back to life???
Regards,
Muneeb

Try to flash cwm again. Don't check auto reboot in odin. When finished flashing cwm, press power+volume up, when samsung or whatever appears on screen release power but keep presing volume up until cwm loads.
Let me know if you have any luck.

I would start all over from scratch to ensure the files you used were for your device.
THIS IS THE AUTO ROOT PACKAGE FOR AN N8020. UNZIP THE FILE & FLASH VIA ODIN
THIS IS CWM RECOVERY FOR N8020. FLASH VIA ODIN
THIS IS TWRP RECOVERY FOR N8000 WHICH IS WHAT YOU WOULD USE. FLASH VIA ODIN
Its possible at this point you might need to run a pit file. Nand erase as well. Read into them before EVER attempting.

Hello,
I have tried these two already "CF-Auto_root" and "N8020-CWM-6.0.2.8-Darkman.tar.md5" but still same..But now my question is will N8000 twrp recovery work on N8020?
Pit yes it can be the solution but its bit risky isn't it?

Yes N8000 is the twrp recovery for N8020. Yes pit is risky but if you read into how to do it and follow it you will be just fine. Sometimes a device may require running NAND Erase also (meaning checking the box in odin). The biggest problem with pit file is people not knowing and just running it as if they were getting a custom ROM.

Thanks for ur time!

I didn't find a working pit for my n 8010. Don't worry too much about the binary counter, mine was 118 today, I reset it with triangle away. I don't have the balls to do a nand erase on mine, I'm not even sure that is required for my problem, at least mine is working.

Yes, dont check auto boot though leave that unchecked and if it passes reboot to recovery and do a data wipe then reboot. If you run into error add your pit file to the pit window along with your stock tar.md5 file and run it just as I mentioned before with repartition selected
Make sure the pit file you use is for your device model/storage size

PLEASE HELP, cant ODIN back to stock

Everything was fine. tried the minuit (or however you spell it) mod. Ended up in a boot loop. i can get into download mode fine. Downloaded the stock firmware to odin back and start over, but when i try, it checks the MD5 just fine. starts the "setupconnection" then i get a fail "can't open the serial(COM) port.
Am i doing something wrong here? Any help at all would be greatly appreciated!

What firmware version were you on before bootloop and what version are you trying to ODIN?

TWRP has been replaced to the original recovery firmware. It couldn't read the internal storage.

Are you able to factory reset from stock recovery?

I failed to use ODIN flash the entire stock ROM which is over 3gb tar.md5 file. Could I download the stock recovery only and flash by ODIN? Also, I am not sure if PIT file helps. I couldn't find PIT file download yet.

Not completely understanding you. Are you saying Odin is failing when trying to Odin latest firmware?

Yes, I failed to flash the latest firmware by ODIN 3.10. I read another post mentioned PIT file to flash to avoid this issue. However, I don't know where I could download the PIT file for this phone.

What Odin version are you using? What phone do you have, and what firmware version are you trying to use? What firmware are you on now?

And you have the sprint s6 edge? You didn't answer all my questions

used one of these when i had recent problem.
edit: try to use the same firmware your currently on (what i did) and the thing that worked for me was using an older sammy usb cable. Beleive it or not the original one kept failing on me. i had a thicker black one that was from my s4 maybe or note 2 i think and used that one and boom went thru. good luck

Thanks!!! It worked. Just grab another USB cable. The original one kept failing on me either. The issue has been solved. Thanks again.
