Tab 2 10.1 GT-P5113 WIFI OTA Rooted.....

So it look like the JB OTA update is here for the USA. Mine is rooted, and has already download the update, but I haven't applied it yet, as I'm rooted and I don't know if I have to do something special first.....
Any one have any info on this?

Same Boat !!
Me too in same boat with P3113.See the post below yours :crying: Hope experts replies soon.

I went ahead and installed it on my daughters tab. CWM protected itself, and root. I'm still poking around, but thus far no issues beyond it says "update failed" but clearly didn't.

I'm wondering if I should remove CWM and unroot it first...

Run a nandroid real quick, back it up to your computer, and let 'er rip. Like I said, it's working perfectly for me. Then again my daughter is 7, so losing all her data isn't really a problem.

Updated with Root ?

So if i understand correctly , you allowed the OTA with root and it wiped data ? I am suprised it installed with Custom recovery !!!
I have over 200 user apps. Will i retain those Apps (dont mind data being wiped)

No, it didn't wipe data. I wasn't worried about it "if" it did, because it's my daughters, and I have TIBU for all her games from like last week.
Just to be perfectly clear. NOTHING went wrong. It installed the new O.S., booted fine, said the update failed, but the update didn't fail. Probably because CWM preserved root, and bootloader, so verification failed.

I ran it..... It updated thru CWM... Once done said update failed, but I had a new agreement to agree too. Sys info says its running 4.1.1.
If I have and issue, ill update here.

Failed for P3113
Based on your experience thought I would try too... Unfortunately failed miserably... I have Cwm 6.0.2.3 and attached is the crash log... Maybe some experts can give their views..

I guess I'll post my successful config just for the sake of comparison.
I'm currently running CWM 6.0.1.1. The tab was rooted with a file called gtab2_jellybean_rooter (think I got it from XDA, but i'm not positive) and had no other modifications/roms/etc.
If you're running any sort of ROM you're definitely boned, gotta wait for a ROM update. Beyond that, I'm not really sure what to say

To do the proper update, you should un-root and then re-root once done. That way you get the full support with your update if needed.

I am rooted, running CWM 6.0.2.3. I accepted the update and hit the install thinking that it would fail just as it does on a rooted SIII. The notification said the install had failed, but as others here have indicated, it appears as though the install was successful. I retained root and all seems to be normal; with one exception: It appears that the Tab no longer "sleeps" but shuts down completely. Regardless of whether I turn it off with the power button (short press) or if the screen simply goes to sleep, I have to long press the power button and it goes through a full boot.
Is anyone else experiencing this? Is there a setting I am missing? I am not a noob at rooting, etc. as I have been doing it since my OG Droid on Verizon, but it surprised me when the update seemed to install (even Google Now is working), and I am stumped about this "shut down" that seems to happen.

I experienced the same thing. I was rooted and had installed CM10, went back to original backup, using latest CWM. I hit system update and it downloaded the update, asked me to continue. CWM asked me if I wanted to install unsigned zip, I accepted, and it went through. At first boot it said update failed, but like everyone else, it went through. I have had no issues at all. My tab goes to sleep correctly.

Have peace in mind.
I finished updating (unfortunately, the battery was 9%, so I had to wait for an hour to charge before doing anything) and I got "failed" error like everybody got, but the system shows 4.1.1 and the performance is improved, and I applied root again.

[Q] Bootloop, reflash stock didn't work

Randomly today my brother's Moto G just turned off and refused to get past the bootscreen and upon turning it off it simply reboots to the bootscreen, at the time the firmware was 4.4.2 and i attempted to flash it back to stock 4.3 using this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2542219 , I got all the OKAYs, followed instructions completely and it still reboots to the bootloader after the 4.3 Stock load.
My question is, is there anything else I can do or is this phone done with?
I am currently in the process of reflashing with a 4.4.2 firmware, all for the xt1034 which is the phone model. Any help would be appreciated as none of the modes in the boot console [recovery,factory] etc do nothing but get stuck on the bootscreen.
And one last question, how long does the phone last on the bootscreen after a reflash? I waited 10mins but nothing changed.
EDIT: can someone change this thread to question, it seems i didnt click it properly >.>

Hello XDA!
I have some questions about my n8010. It is a tablet that I bought in Greece, in case that is necessary to know, and has an interesting background. It started late May. The tablet was unrooted and without any mods whatsoever. I was running the latest Jelly Bean update and had A TON of lag. I had replaced TouchWiz Launcher with Nova and a different gallery and music app with still a lot of lag. So I decided to flash CM11 since it would be lighter for the tablet. After some research I followed the root guide from Zedomax and everything was fine. I had root and so I proceeded doing a backup. This where everything got weird. The backup started but was stuck for long periods of time. After some time being stuck in a screen I decided I should force restart. After the Galaxy Note 10.1 logo appeared it just hanged there without booting into Jelly Bean. I checked recovery and download mode and they where all working fine so I flashed TWRP. It worked and so I took a backup and proceeded installing CM11. I had it already in my SD. I had followed the instructions in the XDA thread that said about removing a line to make it work on the n8010. The flash went great and after factory resetting I rebooted the tablet and everything was OK. At the first boot WiFi wouldn't work but after a reboot it was. The only thing that wasn't working was the video recording. It is a deal-breaker as I use it a lot. I had to switch ROMs. I tried CM10.2 and it still wouldn't. Same goes for Revolt. At lat I switched to a TouchWiz based ROM. Specifically Hyperdrive RLS8. Video was working so I stayed there. I was noticing that since I flashed CM11 my tablet showed up as an n8013 which was very weird but since these ROMs where designed for the n8013 I thought it was normal.
One ROM also had the front facing camera able to record. Upon further inspection I found that Download Mode had my tablet as an n8010 but with the flash count 0 and the status official! Now, I'm either super lucky or the completely opposite! It also says official under About Device! Fast forward a few months and I am now in a situation where the tablet lags once again like crazy. I uninstalled a couple of apps and also installed lighter alternatives and it's somewhat bearable. I was reading the Official OmniROM thread and saw that others also had issues, most of which had the new KitKat bootloader that I don't have, with YouTube and the Video Recording. The latest nightlies are said to have a fix. So I am thinking of installing OmniROM since I am lagging a lot and I would like Screen Mirroring to the Chromecast. My only concern is that I will either brick the tablet or the camcorder won't work. Many people have bricked their Notes and can't go back without the Samsung Service. Most have the new KitKat bootloader which I don't and I'm happy about. My tablet is in a weird situation, what should I do? Anybody else experiencing these issues? Any advice is appreciated!
Thanks in advance,
Chris
Edit: Forgot to say that I flashed Carbon ROM in September and I got a status 7 while flashing with PhilzCWM that I had installed in order to flash Hyperdrive. I had to flash back to Hyperdrive as it wouldn't boot after the status 7. It probably happened because it didn't have SE Linux support. If I do anything I'll flash the latest TWRP.

I would have fixed the original lag issues first. I would get it back to factory stock 100 percent, once back to factory I would do A factory reset and start all over. Get the system running stock as it should then reinstall apps one at a time. if it can't run stock for whatever reason other roms not going to fix the problem.
at least with factory stock you know what should be working. Instead of guessing if the problem is part of the new ROM

Thanks for the response!
Good idea! I was thinking of going back to stock and repeating everything. It should fix all my issues. It's too bad that I don't have a working stock backup and I will have to flash through Odin. The reason that I am not doing this is because I am afraid of making it even worse from the official status state that I have in Download Mode and my device is an n8013 under About Device. A flash back to stock through Odin would probably flash most of the system parts which would be kinda dangerous. But on the other hand that would mean that I could give it a brand new try with better luck possibly! It's not that TouchWiz ROMs don't work, it's AOSP that doesn't. I played a lot with Hyperdrive and seems like it's doing better from the lag prospective. But that's only gonna last 15 days. I am sure! So, I'll have your response in mind! Might try it out when I have some free time. Unfortunately, that will probably be Christmas.
Thanks,
Chris

Going back to stock is good advice.Should certainly fix the video problem which you said was important.

I don't have any video playback issues. It's just the camcorder that doesn't work in AOSP ROMs.

Yes.My use of the word "video" should have been "video recording".

The time has come!
Hello everyone, happy holidays!
The time has come that I follow your instructions. I've done my research and here's how I'll do it. Do you agree? Do you have any other suggestions?
Take full backups with my current configuration (Hyperdrive RLS8, PhilzCWM)
Factory reset the device and clean it up so that there is a lot of space
Install Samsung Drivers
Flash Stock Greek 4.1.2 Frimware (N8010XXUCMK2_N8010OXXCMK2_HOME.tar.md5) through ODIN v3 1.85
Let it boot up and do a factory reset from stock recovery
Flash TWRP 2.8.1.0 for the GT-N8010 (openrecovery-twrp-2.8.1.0-gt-n8010) (I chose this version since it has the most downloads)
Make a full backup once again
Flash Omni ROM 4.4.4 (omni-4.4.4-20141222-n801x-NIGHTLY)
Flash SuperSU (UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.40)
Flash PA GApps (pa_gapps-modular-mini-4.4.4-20141214-signed.zip)
Factory reset
REBOOT!
Check everything (Video, model, download mode, bugs, etc.)
REPORT!
If everything goes correctly I believe I should be OK! Hope my issues will be over since the tablet is slow once again. Kinda scared, so that's why I'm asking you. Will I be (mostly) brick safe? Hope so!
Thank you very much for your support,
Chris
P.S.: Should I root before leaving stock? I mean through TWRP.

I did it! It worked. Everything went OK but:
- Flash count is 0 and status official
- Back camera records in slow-mo
- Chromecast mirroring does not work
However:
-My device is an N8010
-I use the front camera instead
-Mirroring was not really needed
-LAG IS HISTORY!!! [emoji50] [emoji2] [emoji2] [emoji2]
I am so impressed by the performance, still doesn't best my nexus 4 with KK 4.4.4 but it's a GIGANTIC IMPROVEMENT! Veeery happy! Thank you for your support, I wouldn't be here without you!
Merry Christmas and happy holidays!

Hardbricked Moto G after CM 12 Nightly Update (Did not downgrade to KitKat)

Please pardon me for any faux pas as I am new here.
Mods please refer me to the appropriate thread and close this one, in case this one is a duplicate.
It seems my Moto G 1 Gen XT1033 is hardbricked. I had been running a CM 12 for falcon - nightly release since May 2015 and had had no problems so far. I had also upgraded my recovery to CWM Touch.
Two weeks ago, my phone got stuck in a boot loop (I now realise that that is called a softbrick), I managed to boot into recovery and updated my OS with the latest nightly release of CM 12 for my phone. I also tried to upgrade the recovery version with the same as that of the OS version but I don't think that it got upgraded. (I'm not sure what it said).
Anyway my phone was working fine for an hour or so until CM gave some errors on opening the themes configuration, so I thought rebooting my phone would solve the problem.
My phone never booted after that. It didn't even turn on or boot into the bootloader/recovery etc. I checked the battery etc. and it was fine. There was no issue with the hardware.
I then connected my phone to my laptop and it recognised it as qhsusb_bulk. I have spent a lot of time searching and trying various methods like:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/help/how-to-revive-hard-bricked-moto-g-t2833798
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/orig-development/bootloader-tool-motoflasher-t2959076
Using the MotoTool All In One etc.
I cant seem to figure out the problem. I don't even know what my bootloader version was etc.
Is there a problem with my bootloader or recovery? I can't seem to understand.
Can someone please help me with this?
Thanks

Oh man that's unexpected. I never think CM could cause this. I hope you can get it fixed.

Thanks man. But no help so far

Bit of an old topic, but wondering whether there's any update? I have a similar issue. I was running 12.1, and installed the nightly update from yesterday, not noticing it was for 13 (Android 6.0). I was then able to get back into recovery and flash a working 12.1 image. The issue now is the phone is stuck in a boot loop, going through "Optimizing app x of 133", gets to the end and then reboots. I can get into the boot menu and select recovery, but it reboots and goes back into the same boot loop. Likewise if I chose Factory from the boot menu.
Any luck on your side?

That happened to me too, I think even the same image! It was a long time ago and I have now switched to a Oneplus One after using a Moto E which actually isn't that bad - I got it new super cheap. For me, Cyanogen restarted to update and after a LONG period of time stopped doing anything (I have upgraded before). I couldn't mount anything in CWM and I lost all data irrecoverably. The partition table got all messed up, and I had to flash a dual sim image as it was the only one that loaded - done through fastboot. I then flashed the original kitkat image and then massively messed up and updated, making my phone qhs_bulk.
Basically everyone who has had lollipop on their devices and have this are waiting for files to be leaked from Motorola so they can make their phones work. Not much is happening currently, you might as well get a new budget phone - some of the new ones are much better than the Moto G 1st gen! Or you could do what some people are doing which is ordering broken Moto Gs off eBay and replacing the board. Good luck!

You may want to go the fastboot method to flash a stock lollipop image and CWM recovery - if you don't have a backup, you may want to try just flashing something like TWRP to see if you can get some files off your device, then completely flash over it.

Shield Tablet LTE stuck at Bootmenue/Bootloop

Hey Folks,
got some messy Prob's with my old nVidia Shield LTE Tablet.
The Facts:
-KillSwitch not Triggered and it was succesfully Rooted in November 2015, TEGRA-OTA was also Removed (nomoreota)
-worked for Months (beneath one year), only Super-SU penetrated me periodely that it needs to be Updated, but it couldnt be done, it said "not enough Space" after trying to install a newer Version. :silly:
-past Month (January 2017) i decided to do a Factory-Reset, because Girlfriend should get the Shield, thats where the Problem started:
After clicking Factory-Reset, it began to work. After 4 Hours and nothing happening, i decided to Power it Off and start fresh with Installing a clean Stock-ROM and remove the TEGRA-OTA as i done a year before.
But from now on things get messy and to complicated for me.
In the Past i rooted and flashed it with "Shield-RAM", found here on xda.
But this Time it didnt ended with a working Shielt-Tablet. It stucks alwas in a Bootloop, in Recoverymode also as in normally booting the flashed OS.
Confused an disturbed by this, i tried different Recoverys (TWRP 2.8 and 3.0, also a CWM), all with the same Effect: Bootloop
Now i only can acces the Bootmenue which says Bootloader Unlocked.
I dont now what to do from here on and would be very happy and glad, if someone can help me figuring out whats going wrong.
If further Details are needed i will do my best to provide things i forgot here to mention.
With kind regards - ToxicFighter1
Ps.: excusy my bad spelling, bit rusty in flawless english typing:good:

Hi !
There is this thread where you can try to get it back to stock https://forum.xda-developers.com/shield-tablet/general/unofficial-update-original-shield-t3281541
This nice index may help as well
Good luck !

Thanks, but that's not the problem. If I boot into Fastboot / Bootloader, it's totally fine. In fact, I can plug the tablet up to my PC when it's in any state and doesn't experience the issue. It only occurs when I have it plugged into AC. SO far, I've tried 3-4 different cables and power supplies for 2.4A, 2.1A, and 1.2A - all adapters which worked 100% prior to updating.
Suggestions?

OK - Finally fixed it...
I replaced everything as shown above, but ran into the issue again as soon as FlashFire installed the OTA. So, I tried a different way to upgrade and no longer have the issue. Below is what I did...
- Installed 4.4.0 via ADB/fastboot wirhOEM recovery
- Completed initial setup and upgraded to 5.0 via built in system update
- Rebooted
- Booted to bootloader and flashed TWRP recovery
- Booted to TWRP
- Installed SuperSU via sideload
I would have started out applying 5.0 via adb/fastboot, but have yet to see a full image available yet. Used same TWRP and SuperSU as originally used. Just eliminated GlashFire from process. Once I rebooted and everything loaded, plugged into 2.4a power, and it worked without going into boot loop.
Hope this may help someone else - Thanks

Hey Folks,
thx for the few answers, i'll try these Tips out the upcomig Days.
Lot'a Stuff to do atm, bit Busy.

Hey there, and personally Thx for the provided Link.

I'll or explicit the Tablet gets Stuck at Step 17, the Bootsreen doesn't disapear.
Dont know whats Wrong, cause i did all as menitioned in the Post, every ADB/Fastbootstep with Succes-Message, and because Bootloader was already Unlocked, i took the Rooted Image.
But now, im still on Bootscreen, sick
With kind regards!
