Hey all I am new to this site and hope you can help. I recently acquired a friends Tab 7.7. Its model number is SCH-1800. Curently it can hold a charge and boot into what I have learned is recovery and download mode. I am new to all this flashing stuff so sorry if I sound stupid but I will try to explain what I have done so far.
I tried doing a factory reset in recovery mode. I get an error about the cache can not be loaded.
I tried clearing the cache and tells me it can not load from memory.
I tried to flash using Heimdall. It gives me error -12, can not access the device.
It would be amazing if anyone can help me get this working. IT was working one night and then the next day it was not. TIA.
Did you try removing the SDCard ?

Wrong section,the SCH-i800 is the 7.0 inch Verizon Tab,not the 7.7. http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/galaxy-tab/SCH-I800BKAVZW
The Verizon 7.7 Tab is a SCH-i815

Hey guys, I was using my Galaxy S3 and i realized that the wifi continued to screw up. I was running Android Kit kat so i went into settings looking for a factory reset button and never found one. I then boot into TWRP Recovery and clicked Factory reset and checked system partition (where i messed up) when reseting and then finished with a No OS message. I then tried to flash several zips designed specifically for my device and all got bad zip error... I then tried to odin back to stock firmware and got the fail message several times. I need some help here, can somebody lead me in the right direction? Thanks in advance!!
Hey everyone, I'm using a GT-P5100 (3G + Wifi) O2 UK rooted tablet and for the last month it has been broken. It started rebooting itself randomly every now and then, and then suddenly it wouldn't even boot up for 15 seconds before it would restart itself again.
I am able to get into safe mode and I can get into the boot options, but when I factory reset it does nothing, I've tried from the boot menu, from safe-mode options and even from the dial up code.
I tried to connect my tablet to my PC as a media device and format it but that didn't work either; I can't connect it as a disk then format it that way because they took out 'mass storage mode' on this firmware.
I then tried to flash a stock ROM in Odin but every time I tried it would fail until I used Odin.v1.3, but guess what, it rebooted itself and my entire tablet is still exactly the same.
(the option was on AP ram in v1.3 not AP nand I don't know if that makes a difference.)
If anyone can point me in the right direction I would appreciate it so much. I have been trying for weeks to fix this and I just don't know what to do anymore, I tried on another forum but nobody answered me.
Everyone else gets replies and I get zilch; amazing. I don't know what it is that is preventing my tablet from wiping itself but it refuses to clear the current data no matter what way I try (ROM, factory reset, computer format). If someone could just tell me what that is and what I have to do about it that would be grand.
You mention "rooted " but you don't mention what current rom or past roms that you may have flashed, you could have some sort of rom cluster [email protected]$k going on in your tab but NO one else will ever be able to help because of lack of INFO or history.

I standard rooted it from Odin. This is my first ROM I am trying to flash. I just need to know what would prevent a tablet from rebooting itself properly. Factory reset, format and flash is not working so I must assume that rebooting is the issue here.
If you are running stock rooted rom and having issues like this the only way out is reflashing the stock firmware complete (not just a rom) and see if that fixes it before you try any other roms.
If you can get into download mode thats the fix.
Pp.
To flash it completely do I need more than an MD5 file? (I also have the partition file for my model). Another question, if the tablet is having issues with the reboot after a flash, will updating from a microSD with a zip help? Thanks for the advice.
Hey guys,
Is data recovery possible after a flash? Also, what is wrong? I have searched but no answer directly hits on this. I am not a tech guy- Biology- sorry for that ahead. To the issue, I dlowded a software update to my Galaxy s3.....and boom froze on Samsung screen. I can turn phone off and on. It would not boot past Samsung. So I went into cache partrition, and tried a system reboot- cannot. So then I seen a program that supposively recovers data after factory reset if you do nothing else to the phone. However, problem I hit te dreaded factory reset- nothing. Over a software update? My computer is not recognizing the device. So I went to Samsung, they tried installing software, however, the computers were recognizing, but not connecting. One tech said they did not have flash- I went back again, the othertech said they did. Anywho, after 4 days, I forked my phone over to a repair guy. He I believe tried Odin- as it currently sits in odin mode. Now it was getting into download mode- but ow I have this message- " Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again." A samsung guy mentioned it might be able to be flashed, as my concern data- not backed up. This info is pretty important, as I have several contacts and mssgs. The two modes my phone can go into: Odin and recovery. I could really use the help, on both saving data, and getting the phone to fire- as it might be able to- but data?
Thanks in advance.

Before or after the a Flash? Thanks for the reply.
Hey guys hope someone can point me to the right direction or knows this problem:
Galaxy Tab 10.1 Wifi (P5110).
Device will only boot recovery no matter what. (both with stock or custom recovery AND stock or custom rom installed - tried all combinations already)
Stock rom has been installed with odin and pit-repartition has also been tried.
When I turn on the tablet it boots straight to recovery. On stock recovery it says something about update, then "no command" and when I then choose reboot system, it says error and powers the device off.
Please help.
nobody an idea?
I had this kind of behaviour on another device before - dont exactly remember if also was samsung - but the solution was to clear out a stuck OTA update which was stored in a special partition which would normally not get wiped of flashed over. (by reformating or writing it full with /dev/zero)
Thinking back I dont think it was a samsung device though - but the "error picture" is the same.
But in this case I'm unsure where ota updates would get stored other than cache partition. Already tried clearing out some partitions on this thing - since its a wifi only model - can I clear EFS or use "reformat all" (dunno how exactly that option is called in odin) without totally bricking it? (never had to do this but since I'm out of ideas... )
Please anyone.. =)

Hello community, I am new here so I don' t know where to put this.
Well I need some help, I am having problems with my old tab, A Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 GT-P5113, Flashed with custom ROM CM 10.1.3 for GT-P5110
Worked fine for a year and a Half, the issue that I am having now is that, it constantly restarts, after entering to the OS I can tweak change etc, but after a few secs it just turns of and reboots the system.
The other problem that I am having is that I tried everything that I could think of. I deleted some apps, which came back after the reboot. I booted to safemode, and deleted the last apps that I installed, still came back after the crash reboot.
I went to recovery mode (CWM) and did a Factory reset, delete cache and delete Dalvik Cache. Nothing when reboot everything was like last time.
wen't to and tried to reflash CM 10.1.3 (stable) following every procedure and nothing everything was back.
Last thing I tried is ODIN with stock ROM (which is hard to find for this tab.) but get write error after going to half. I am downloading a second stock ROM (android 4.1.1) to see how it goes.
Hope to find help here, I would be greatly thankful.
EDIT: Flashed now with the new stock ROM, ODIN says success, everything seems fine, but again I got received by the same splash and the same logon screen, and still crashes and reboots...
I really need the help

It keeps with the boot loop.
Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. After you flash with Odin go into the stock recovery and do a factory reset. If that doesn't work it may be that you're device is just getting old and giving up the ghost. There's a whole forum for your device which may also help. See this,http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-2
Oh, that would be bad news :/
Do you think it could be that I deleted CWM rommanager app, and then accidentally deleted the .recovery, that put me into this situation?

It didn't work. I noticed that after the transferring of odin it doesn't go to the installation procedure. It just skips that and goes to the logscreen with how everything I had.
Now I went to safe mode, and deleted all apps that I could from play store. when I came back after a restart, everything was there, back. :/
Please ask any further questions you have on the q&a forum in your drives forum, the link I gave you. They are the experts on your device
