Hey Everyone, I have been reading for the past 4 hours trying to get cwm on my phone. I did the 1 click ulda3 and got ics because icouldnt even d/l the aosp one from att. Now I cant get cwm installed. Ive tryed the newest, 5504,and 5027 with no luck. I can get to the odin downloading screen. Ive tryed just about everything and have read all the threads i can find her. When i press the vol up and power i get ahaptic feedback of vibrations i let go and it just reboots back to samsung screen then back to the os. but cant install a custom rom because ofthis
Any body had this same issue?? Im stuck here and i can not move on without geting to cwm to install the custom rom :/
Shut phone off
Plug USB into comp, but not phone
Hold both volume buttons while plugging in USB to phone. Wait for download screen.
Release buttons.
Press up

Phone will go into download mode for a split second then reboot but not boot up. I would have to do a battery pull to get it booted all the way. Phone also will not go into recovery mode.
Is something wrong with your volume button? That sounds more like it's broken since you can't boot into either download or recovery.

It will go into download, just only stay for a second.
Do you have any issues with your volume buttons while using the rom? When did this start happening? Also, did you do anything that might cause this to happen?
When you hold volume up, home, and power to boot into recovery then release the power button once it vibrates, what happens?

Once it vibrates when i try to go into a recovery, the screen just go blank,
Volume buttons work well. It's just the power button that's a little wonky. Also phone turns on when battery is placed in.
power button maybe stuck down, making it turn off when in recovery and on when battery is installed.

I thought it might be stuck too but when phone is fully booted into rom, it doesn't go on and off like the buttin is stuck.

I'm running into the same problem. I actually took my phone apart and checked the power button, it is not physically stuck though. My power button doesn't work at all, but it still pushes in like it's supposed to. Very odd

I just took mine apart as well. What Rom do you have on yours?

Running the latest goodness build. I wanted to try a different rom to see if it was linked in any way, but obviously can't do that. Lol

I got it to stay in download mode 1 time. Unfortunately I needed the phone to download a stock VRBMB1 firmware. Hopefully i can get it to do it again.

I'm going to try it when I get home. Where you able to get into download and/or recovery mode without it rebooting itself?
I was for a day or two. Now I am back to where it constantly boot loops if I try. Any insight on the matter?

My GT P6800 was working fine a few days ago. Charged it fully and went on holidays. Went to turn it on, and no activity. Plugged it in to charge, the battery icon came on screen and I let it charge fully. I then tried to turn it on again, and it still wouldn't turn on. I've now found that the only thing I can do is boot into download mode. Vol Down and Power brings up the Download Mode menu, when I press Vol Up, it enters Download Mode, when I press Vol Down to reboot, the screen blanks and nothing happens. I've tried pressing the power button for up to 30 seconds - nothing. I've tried entering recovery mode using Vol Up and Power buttons - nothing.
I entered download mode and tried to install ClockworkMod recovery using Odin, but once Odin had finished and "rebooted" the tablet, the screen went blank and nothing happened.
I'm happy to blow this away, install any ROM etc., would just like to get it working. It's been a while since I last rooted/flashed it, but I believe it's still running 4.04, and was rooted some time ago.
Any tips very welcome!
Try flash a full stock firmware package with Odin.
Try with your current firmware version first.
Try with HC 2nd.

Hmmm... I installed P6800XXLQ2_P6800OXALQ2_ATO obtained from Sammobile using ODIN, had "Automatically reboot" ticked, and once the flashing finished, the device didn't reboot. I then tried all the power button options, and the only one that gave a response was entering download mode. I then entered download mode, and let it sit there for a while while I did a bit more research, and then I noticed the screen went blank. I've now tried to turn it on again, and now get no response at all. Will try to plug it in to charge for a bit and see if it responds.
Any other ideas?
Ok, not sure what's happened here. Plugged it in, it showed the charge icon, and then booted up. Nothing has been wiped, it still shows as 4.0.4. I'm wondering if for some reason it was actually booting, but the screen wasn't coming on properly, and therefore it's run the battery down. It's now showing as charging, and the battery currently has 0% charge. Will let it charge for a while, then try root, install CWM and flash 4.1.2....
thanks for your help.
I have the same problem. I can enter only in download mode, if I press Vol Up I still see Samsung logo, no any actions. I've tried to install CWM, stock firmware, PIT with re-partition. No success. Need your help, please.
If you'se can get to download mode... using Odin, Flash stock Honeycomb..3.2...
If you get that (HC) up and running, then do the steps to up and up to JB...
good luck
So I have been unable to actually start up my tab for about a week now. When it's plugged into the wall, the charging screen flashes on and off continuously. When it's unplugged, it will flash the "Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0" screen on and off until the battery is dead.Holding the power button does nothing. When I've tried plugging it into my computer, it is recognized for 2 seconds, then not, 2 seconds, then not.How do I fix this??
When I press power and volume down
It go to download mood
I cant flash any software
When I press power and volum up it goes to samsung logo but it turns off
I removed battery and put it on nothing happened
I bought new battery and nothing happened
How do I fix it ?

Give us some info. What did you do to it before this happened? Root? Custom recovery? Other mods or scripts? Did you Google search to see if there's something on the net that might give an explanation? Anything you might have done just before it quit turning on would be excellent.

Since you can get into download mode, have you tried downloading the stock ROM and reflashing it through Odin? Don't worry about root at this point.

Hello everyone,
I'm in deep trouble with my bricked phone. Yesterday I wanted to flash Cyanogenmod 11 and I was following a video guide on how to do it. The video said to flash TWRP recovery to the phone so that's what I did. I don't believe it said anything about unlocking the bootloader at all. So what happened was I flashed the recovery and the problem said if I wanted to boot into recovery now.
It didn't because a message popped up saying "A program that i not authorized by Verizon was detected on this phone" blah blah blah. And now anytime I tried booting the phone it goes to that message. I can't boot to anything. Yesterday was able to boot into ODIN mode and thought I could flash something or at least wipe my phone completely and start from scratch. Well I went to bed and thought I could pick u from ODIN mode but now my screen won't turn on. When I press the power button, the light nor the screen turns on. Now I have no idea that to do.
Things I've tried:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dU5H8NJ7vTM
I tried this twice, once yesterday with a 2 GB non class 10 SD card and the other today with a 16gb Class 10 SD card that matches my 16gb S3.
Odin doesn't recognize my phone and neither does my computer.
I think my only option is to buy a USB Jig to try to get my phone into download again. Is there anyway I can make a USB jtag jig instead of buying? Would anyone in a Verizon Store be able to help me?
I don not care about the data on my phone at all, all I want to make it work again.
Please help, thanks.
I'll stop by the Verizon Store and see if they can help.
Edit: I wasted my time...

They can't, you need to read the guides on how to fix the softbrick and read up on your device limitations. Updated S3's have locked bootloaders.

Okay I'll keep trying. What probably really bricked my phone was when I tried the fix in the video with a small SD card. I didn't watch the first where he mentions it's crucial to use a 16gb class 10 card...

Your phone isn't hard bricked, it's soft bricked, that guide won't do anything for you. If you were on 4.1.2 you need to use the appropriate file or you'll lock your bootloader.

I tried this one but I can't do it because ODIN doesn't see my phone and I can't get into Odin mode
Edit: Well I can't see anything because my screen won't turn on. I turn on the phone with holding down the Power + Home + Vol Down, then keep holding down Home and Vol Down, then Vol Up to get into download mode. When I plug in the cord the phone vibrates as if I turned it on again.

That will work, but you don't have to go through the whole flashing boot chain process, I'd use the newer guide ThePagel wrote with the 4.1.2 tar.
You should be able to get into download mode. Power + home + volume down until the blue small text appears in the corner. Then you can let go.

I can't verify that I'm getting into download because my screen is off the whole time, so I'm doing the button presses blindly. And yes it seems like it is

I think your power button is broken or the display is broken. It doesn't make sense for it to be hard bricked.

That's what the person said at the Verizon store but I don't believe it at all. The screen was perfectly fine Friday night. I didn't drop my phone at all so that the hardware could have been physically damaged.

You don't need to drop it for it to be broken, they've been known to stick. Lookup YouTube videos on how to unstick the power button.

Okay so I had the phone unplugged and without the battery overnight. I put in the battery and turn it on, phone vibrates and that's it. However, when I plug it in to be charged, now the red LED light doesn't come on and the phone vibrates repeatedly like it's in a boot loop.
How can I tell if my power button it stuck? I can feel the button depress like it should.
