Hi there, my phone is soft bricked and freezes at the Samsung logo when booting up.. been reading / trying all sorts but can't seem to resolve it so thought i'd come here for help.
Windows or Odin wont recognize my device even though I have the latest Samsung Drivers installed, Windows is saying 'USB Device not recognized' and that it may have malfunctioned.
Could I have messed up the phones USB drivers which is why they're only half working? If so is it possible for me to put something onto my SD card to then install through CWM?
Any help is much appreciated as this is really starting to frustrate me.

My friend switched off his phone so he will save battery in his skyrocket, then the phone looked like bricked which is weird. I've tryed to put it in download mode - nothing cwm - nothing, just silence, no vibration, no reaction w/e i've tryed to do. Is there a workaround so I won't have to turn on phone and i could flash rom? AFAIK he had installed CM9 and everything was fine. Weird thing tho. Is there anything that we can do? When i plugin phone to the pc with odin turned on (windows 7) says that the driver is not functioning although i have installed samsung usb drivers and i've connected galaxy note with ease... Then i installed another samsung usb driver somewhere in gs2 skyrocket board. Still no luck. Specifically error says "This device cannot start. (Code 10)"
Can anyone help me out with my tablet? It doesnt get detected on my laptop running windows 7 anymore. When i plug it into my laptop the battery logo on my tablet has a mark X on it. I want to flash a custom rom but i cant do it if my usb doesnt detect this tablet. It is running on 4.1.2
I tried installing kies so the drivers get installed and when that didnt work i tried uninstalling kies and installing the drivers by itself but it still didnt work. Can anyone help me out here please? I'll be forever grateful!
I usually keep flashing ROMS.
This time in sheer confidence I didnt charge the battery full.
I was switching from mokee 4.4 to CM11.
I wiped everything for a fresh install and unfortunately CM11 didnt install.
The tab restarted and now it wont go into recovery. what just happened?
It is just showing logo and I cannot get into Odin more either.
The tab had about 30% battery when it shut off and I cannot reach a charger for it for the next 4 hours.
Can I switch it off in any way to save battery?
the phone has switched off now. Is service center the only alternative? the tab was rooted with mokee installed.

Try charging it when you have time and then try re flashing the stock Rom before taking it to service center
will the tab 2 charge without a recovery or ROM in place?

I think it should
Ok, the tab2 is charging. thank you
I installed all the necessary drivers and odin and recovery on my laptop.
The tab2 is giving error on pc (this device wont start) mtp uSB. THe tab is stuck at 'samsung p3100' logo.
If it is any help, I have a working p3100 also running on stock firmware.
what should be my next step? I think I can manage if only I can get odin to recognize my phone or get into recovery (both of which seem to be missing.)

Try reinstalling drivers
@shsagnik : Thank you very much for helping out.
I got installed all drivers by using the other P3100. But when I connect the bricked p3100, pc doesnt install MTP USB drivers. Under device manager it says " failed to start".
ODIN doesn't recognize it. either.
My mistake was I flashed everything on the phone including the internal memory.
PS: Can I force ODIN to recognize my phone?
Ok, my almost bricked device is back and runnning.
This might just help somebody. but my android handset was on a logo only mode. something in the combination of
Attaching it to pc (windows 7 64-bit)
re-installing and rejigging drivers
trying to let ODIN identiify
connecting via Samsung kies (I also tried restore on kies).
connecting a working android phone instead of the dead phone with pc to find and install drivers.
worked.
PS: I also let it sit dead powered off (worked only when charger was attached) for a whole day before trying to boot into recovery or bootlaoder (both worked).

Hi,
My Phone is now hanging up at the ":
"Samsung Galaxy S6 powered by android" screen
I can still get into recovery and downloadmode.
The pc "sees"the internal storage, but it wont allow me to copy a rom or anything to it,so that i may reflash a rom
Also if i use the "kies"or "smartswitch" programme, it says it cant connect to the Phone.
if reinstelled the samsung driver via kies
Also i have tried deleting the kies and driver from the pc, rebooting and reinstalling kies and driver, bit still the same result
It seems to me that if i could get a rom back on the internal storage i would be able to flas a new rom and get things working again?
Can anyone assist?
thaanks in advance
