Hi all,
my friend have this tablet and after few starts this tablet didnt start. He try Factory reset but after this he cant even go to CWM menu. He make NOT Root, not change firmware settings, nothing.
He download Stock Rom from GoClever but its only "update.zip" and installation procedure is "put this update.zip to Nand Storage and restart". This tablet didnt start and he cant copy update.zip to Nand storage. Its possible flash this "update.zip" via Odin?
Thanks for your tips and answers.
Pleas, any idea?

do you even know what is Odin for?
I am afraid that your deive is gone into hard brick.
If You cant turn on it(Even Boot logo), You must find stock Rom and Flash it.
Google is your friend.
If you can't boot even to bootloader but you can turn the device on and the computer detects the hardware you can flash stock rom. I'll post that info if somebody needs it

Greetings xda experts
Who has similar problem or even solution:
When trying to pretty up a LGP920 with LGFlash tool. bin and. Fls (for me the XBSA404) with LGFlash tool, the process stops at ...%.
The unit will not start anymore pressing power, bricked
With Omap4boot (start_fastboot.bat) Device Manager recognizes OMAP4430 device or LGE USb Device at Com Ports.
So I was able to try flashing with B_SmartFlashTool_Extern.exe
But is also not finished, because the "Download Mode" turns off after some time, no matter which .bin i tried..
Is there a way to keep the download mode alive a longer time or a smaller .bin file.
hope someone can help

Hello mate!
U gonna need an lg flash tool cracked. All u need to do than is flash twice. The first will be only to restore the boot partitions. U can do that by the time the mobile still on. After u get the boot restored, u gonna need to flash again to restore the full firmware.

the problem i am having is that even after the first broken flash i still can't enter normal download mode and i am pretty much stuck.
all i can do is try to flash a certain .bin rom which has clockworkmod installed, boot into clockworkmod, and from there install cm10 zip. but after this, i found out my imei was gone so when i wanted to revert to stock to get my imei correct, i found out i can't do that anymore because fastboot download mode method shuts off after 3-4 minutes into the upgrade this happens with all lg tools, smartflash tool, and i don't know if i tried anything else.
Try a blackscreen download mode using a smartflashtool with baterry inserted after start.

what shall be the steps i should be doing in odin? also i cant understand the proper function or procedure to be done for my fault.
Also please understand that i actually installed CWM from rom manager and later i freezed rom manager using titanium backup. After that the recovery was working fine manually. i stupidly factory reset the phone without unfreezing the rom manager. may be this is the reason why it got stuck up.
just tell me that is there any way through which i can flash my old backup stock rom using PC(created using CWM recovery) also tell me that is there any software which can clear cache by connecting through pc. so that i can give it a try.....please help me.
am very badly tensed...

Yeah i googled..but no results came up for my model... I downloaded one which is latest of version ...Then i installed it. also read that the back up files(of ROM) must be in .tar format in order to flash it from odin. Also the phone must enter some kind of FORCED UPLOAD MODE (saw in case of samsung).
what shall i be doing to enter that download mode(same as upload mode i guess) which you mentioned above.... Is there any converter to convert my back up files to .tar
Use this link and follow the steps u can easily unbrick your phone.

Go to the bootloade mode again by pressing "power button + volume down button" and check your device status.. If it unlocked, we can proceed with next steps.. If it locked, try unlock it again using the same guide...

Actually is unlocked and I just installed CWM on device. I have acces to bootloader mode and CWM mode. What can I do now? I think the better choice is to flash a rom again but i don't now how to do if I havent got access to my phone memory, so i cant put the files into phone.

I downloaded Carbon-kk rom and a repack stock 4.4.2. I dont know where can I find the original stock.
which is the next step?

Same issue
this happens to me occasionally. it goes to black screen when an app restarts the phone or the device was forced shutdown (hold power 20secs)
to fix it, i go to recovery, either reset to factory or install a backup rom will revive the phone, but it is very annoying.
anyone knows a permanent solution?
not sure what to format on cwm, im afraid to lose anything important..
Hi All,
I have a GT P3110 that was rooted. I tried to install a custom ROM, but I didn't succeed, because since first reboot it arrives till "Updating Android", optimize all the apps, and straight after "opening applications" it reboots - as in the title - in infinite loop.
I can access download mode, and I tried very various solutions (all through Odin, in different versions), but none of firmwares i tried unlocks the situation, neither does any flashed recovery open. Just the download mode (that still let me hope for a solution).
I read a lot of threads about, but nowhere I found a solution; I tried even to Erase All Nand, but it failed.
I really dunno what else could I do, has anyone solved a similar problem, or has an idea of how could I unlock the situation??
SOLVED: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_p3110
But it currently boots and fails after optimizing still?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk
thanks for quick reply!
More detailed what i see is
- "Galaxy Tab 7 2.0"
- blinking "Samsung"
- "Updating Android OS": inside of this, it first optimize all the apps ("optimizing app 1,2,3,...."); when it finished, says "Opening applications", and just restarts from blinking "Samsung".
OK. So it IS booting the os.
And you can't get into recovery?
You mentioned that you tried Odin, did you make sure to use the latest correct pit file when flashing?
Sent from my GT-P3110 using Tapatalk
again thanks!
No I cannot access recovery in any way, I tried kinda all combination of buttons, but can only get into Download mode.
But.......actually I'm not using any PIT file! Hope THAT is the problem!
So maybe now i should try to flash again stock firmware, with correct pit file, selecting in odin only f.reset time and auto-reebot (also repartition? and/or nand erase all?) ?
about PIT, can it be http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2552155 ?

Yes, use the 311x file in the last post.
Go to the thread where you got recovery and be sure to use 311x or 3110 flashable recoveries.
Follow all instructions to a t. Do not select anything you are not specifically told to select
Sent from my GT-P3110 using Tapatalk
tried to flash recovery with PIT realized only after that repartition was selected, but nothing changed.
tried to flash firmware with PIT, unselected repartition, and i supposed i bricked it. Still, on charge shows the battery, but no other response. damn.
[EDIT] The tablet is still alive, I found on another section that letting it charge and pressing volume button, can make it wake up and..."yes"! We are back at soft brick as before...same exact situation!
Well. At least its not bricked. Lol
If you repartition without the pit it could turn the whole thing into a single partition. The pit is a partition information table, it tells the tablet what partitions go where.
There must be a way to force recovery on, maybe through adb but I'm not sure.
If Odin is failing try updating the drivers and if you haven't, try a more recent Odin meant for the tab. Other than that I'm out of ideas. You might be able to boot recovery by holding volume up and power while plugging in. Once the Samsung logo flashes up unplug while continuing to hold volume up
Sent from my GT-P3110 using Tapatalk
well actually odin isn't failing, because everything that was needed to be flashed, it was...
odin i am using in the last version
I also do not have any clue for this...
the only hint i have, is that maybe i should flash both recovery and firmware with PIT, and leaving on both the re-partition....
...even if the hard brick perspective scares me...
And cannot find anyone that had my same problem on the internet!!!!
If you have any other suggestion/ideas feel free to share...meanwhile thanks!
But if Odin worked right it would be flashing recovery without issue.
Maybe try booting as far as it will boot, plug into PC, open a command prompt and type
Adb
Sudo reboot recovery

Hi,
I am new to this site and fairly new to rooting and stuff and need assistance with my Sony Xperia S (LT26i). If i am not in the right pace for this please point me in the right direction. I have installed a custom rom and custom recovery which let me upgrade from 4.1.2 to 4.3 which was working fine then when I flashed a different custom rom after that to get 4.4.1 I lost access to my custom recovery. The main issue is that I need help with changing the custom rom I have installed, for some reason I can no longer boot into TWRP or CWM (using power + vol up), the phone simply boots normally and skips the whole process therefore I cannot flash anything. I have looked for hours over the net on how to get into recovery but could not find a solution.
I also assumed that when installing custom recovery and custom roms that you would need to be rooted but when I check with Root Checker it says that I am not. So any assistance would be great

Here is 4.0.4
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B_d8uWGbkaetLThpYzEwZUh5aTg/edit
steps:
how to install the newest Android 4.0.4 for Sony XPERIA S LT26i
a) first of all, check your firmware version (if you already have the newest one, you do not need this tutorial)
b) download and install latest Flashtool from here (mirrors Google Drive or Mega)
c) download also latest Android 4.0.4 (mirror) for Sony XPERIA S LT26i
d) paste the ftf file downloaded in step c) to folder „Firmware“ included in the XPERIA Flashtool
e) open the XPERIA Flashtool, click on flash and choose downloaded firmware, than click ok. Important - if you do not want to delete any data of your phone, just uncheck flashing userdata.sin file. All data will remain in your phone, but sometimes it can cause additional troubles. So it is better (and I recommend that) to do the backup of your personal data, than proceed with clean instalation and then restore your personal data.
f) turn off your phone and when Flashtool shows pop up window, connect phone to PC with holding volume down button
g) after few minutes all is done and your phone gets the new firmware
Here you got 3 ways to update good luck
http://androidteen.com/xperia-s-lt26i-update-to-android-4-1-2-jelly-bean-official-firmware-6-2-b-1-96/
Ok so I successfully downloaded the firmware file but I got an error when using the flash tool, I have attached the log if you can maybe help me out with what went wrong.

The clue's in the error message - you don't have the required drivers installed.
There's a directory named "drivers" under the main flashtool dir. Run flashtool-drivers.exe and install the appropriate drivers. I think "Common Drivers Viskan Board" is the one you need. I ended up installing all of them to get it to flash (which took ages).
Ok so I got it to work, all I had to do was hold down the vulumn down button for like an extra 5 seconds while it began to flash
Thanks for the help, I appreciate it

Hello again
So I have successfully rooted the device and installed TWRP but as before I cannot seem to get into the recovery mode, when I boot the phone with "power and vol +" it doesn't boot into recovery but instead there is a quick glimpse of what I think is the recovery mode (I cant actually see it but something happens for a split second) but it flashes past way too fast then goes to the normal Sony logo and continues booting normally. I have tried this like at least 20 times in the last 2 weeks and have researched other ways to boot into recovery but I can't seem to find anyone with an answer. Do you know what could fix this? Or is there a way to boot into recovery using a computer?
