I've had this problem b4, if u were using adb earlier open up task manager and fc it. Also if u have more than one flashing program (odin, heimdall, one click, gremlin remover...etc) close all but the one you are trying to flash with then restart download mode.

Pull out your phone's battery and check whether it says SGH-T959V in the sticker under the battery.

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

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.
Sent from my GT-I9003 using xda premium

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.

Basically you don't need kies to use Odin only the drivers. Since kies van Brick your phone while flashing.

I hav reinstalled the samsung usb driver several times and I don't know whatelse to do. Please help me

You can install SamyKat Rom

Enter the download mode using the key combination, not through recovery. It will work.

Try another USB port, and make sure that nothing with kies is running on your computer, open odin as admin.

if u are able to boot in cwm.
then try to flash cynogemmod 10 rom.
it migh be helpful to boot to system.
then u can use odin..

i faced the same problem
there are 2 way to solve this problem
1. changes your samsung usb drivers there are many kind of it which has different size, i use the 23MB of Samsung Usb Drivers and install it then flash the rom you want to install through odin
if the first method doesn't work try second method
2. download the rom you want to install, better to download the stock rom and then sent it to your micro sd card then flash it through cwm it'll work
if i help you don't forget to hit thanks

why don't you try TWRP, its here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...recovery-twrp-3-0-2-0-samsung-galaxy-t3468405 and the best thing its flashable without Odin. If you dont have custom recovery but your device is rooted then try https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.mkrtchyan.recoverytools&hl=en (Rashr App) to flash it.
If your device is not rooted and no custome recovery but you still wanna get it, then follow the rest of this post:
1st Get the KingRoot Apk from the XDA.
2nd Download and Install it.
3rd Root your device from the app and flash the recovery using the Rashr app.
4th Optional: Highly Suggested though, get the latest build of SuperSu and keep in SD/ Internal. Now uninstall Kingroot from the app, it removes the root too, but who cares, you have the recovery now. Now boot into recovery and flash the SuperSu zip.
Why did i Suggest SuperSu, well Kingroot contains some bloatware stuff and takes more space then SuperSu and is bit slow.
P.S sorry for my bad English.
