Hi,
I am unable to Install any custom roms in Samsung galaxy Tab 2( Gt-P3110 ). When ever a custom Rom is placed, It either gets stuck in the Samsung logo, or just shows a 'Blank' Screen and hangs on that screen. After this i have to reflash the stock firmware to get the tab up again... (i do perform the wipe data/cache..then wipe cache. then wipe dalvik cache in this order before flashing the ROM)
The details of the tab are:
Model- GT-P3110 ( Galaxy tab 2 , wifi only )
android version-4.1.2
Build number-JZO54K.P3110DCMA4
Recovery: PhilZ Touch 6 Recovery ( Based on CWM Base version: v6.0.4.5 )
Rooted: Yes
Even the backups made are not complete, restoring a backup restores the tab to factory reset.
(it does say failed to find partition /recovery and /data for a very short time before starting the backup).
I am using a windows 7 system for this.
Thanks for the help...
Regards

what costum rom did you tried to install?
============
ROOT and update recovery:
HERE is the fastest way to root
reboot to recovery, and flash latest recovery again from HERE
reboot and go to recovery again.
Flashing roms:
Do a back up of important data/rom, place it inside your pc
Inside recovery:
Wipe data
Wipe cache
Wipe dalvik cache
Format /system
Format /cache
Format /data media sdcard
Install rom
Install gapps
make sure your rom and gapps zip is in extsdcard, or else it will removed
be carefull not to format /extsdcard
above process will surely give positive results if done preciesely

For some reason this tab only works with Phils recovery.. for the rest. it just refuses to work.,! but the problem was that i could not get into the external memory card.. anyways.. after following the 'data wipe' instructructions.. i sideloaded cm-11-20140304-NIGHTLY-p3110.zip with its gapps..
both got installed succesfully.. However,, at first the tab went into a boot loop.. so i got into recovery again and cleared the data and cache partitions.. now.. i got stuck at a 'Blank' screen after the samsung logo.. ( its still blank after 10 mins)..

did it still blank? carefully not to flash with the charger on.
some people got bricked and to resolve that you must wait until the battery drops out and charge it again.
maybe you should clear your mind first, don't be in rush. i feel your frustating man :laugh:
if you do not add anything more in the process, i suppose with any recoveries you will succeed.
and also, it's a normal to take 10-15 min on the first boot

Maybe your EFS broken for some reason... that´s why it won´t boot into system.... you can try all roms, no rom will boot and you'll only see the samsung bootlogo...
this got reported in a german forum, because 2 guys flashed CWM 6.0.4.4-Touch on the device... CWM 6.0.4.4-Touch not released for the Tab 2 - it was for a different device and flashing that recovery brokes EFS for them.

So now you're able to wipe data/format ?
Flash in ddkq5 via odin and then install one of the custom roms available most probably razodroid v1 or creeds 1.5.
Listen, I have been flashing stuff into my device for quite some time now. Almost everytime I flash , I experience a bootloop and related stuff.
As long as you can access download mode and recovery mode, there's no reason to worry.
Whenever I suffer from such a problem , I keep flashing firmwares and roms built for my device and wiping data until I fix it.
Sent from my Galaxy Fit @ 801Mhz- RazoDroid
boot loops are pretty common.
just keep flashing roms until you find the one perfect for you.
could you plss provide me a link for DDKQ5..cant seem to find it..sorry..

Try doing the following :
1. Flash an ICS Stock from first from Sammobile.( Through Odin)
2. Probably it will get you in a bootloop again.
3. Within this bootloop go into stock 3e recovery & flash CWM.(Through Odin)
4. Go into CWM & Wipe Data, Cache & Dalvick.
5. Reboot.

Hi There,
So, I have a Samsung Galax S2 Telus SGH-T989D phone and I decided to root it using the 4.4 KitKat and it went well and everything was great.
However, afterwards to resolve some other issues I was having I decided to make the mistake of loading the gapps which was for another
package into my phone and that messed everything up!
So, I have been struggling with the phone and first it wouldn't let me install another ROM from recovery and kept on giving me error 7 and 6
But, I fixed that and now I can install any ROM from the recovery or Odin (download mode) without any errors.
However:
The phone vibrates , brings up the galaxy logo and then the Koodo logo appears and a bar fills up quickly under it but it never goes away!!!
Phone freezes there and that's that!! Even after taking out the battery I noticed the logo was still stuck on the screen where as normally
it goes blank!!
So, at this point I am not sure what else to do! This is annoying and I'm tired of experimenting. I went through some XDA foroums here and
tried the Super Vipe (taking out the battery has been tried, factory reset and wiping the cache all have been tried)
So, please please please help me out here. I used to have a MyTouch4G which I rooted with CyanogenMod back in the day and it's the most
stable thing ever and all I wanted to do was to perform the same thing on my Galaxy S2 and boom not this time!!!
Awaiting your response and thanks in advance

Thank you for your reply. However, as I've mentioned before, I've already tried those (from ODIN and through RECOVERY) with multiple different

Did you perform a FULL wipe? Custom recovery -> format ALL partitions except EFS?
I have tried the Super Vipe off the SD card through the recovery mode and also from recovery I've tried the wipe cache,
factory reset and wipe cache partitions.
I am not sure about "format ALL partitions except EFS" nor am I aware of the procedure.
How would I perform that?
Have you installed a working custom recovery?

If there's a specific ROM you are thinking about please let me know and I will be more than glad to give it a shot.
You really should use a newer recovery version. But for now go to mounts and storage and format all partitions except EFS. Then try flashing stock firmware via Odin
Here you can get the latest recovery for your device --> TWRP for hercules

Under mounts and storage and format all partitions except EFS > Don't even see ESF there to begin with..
Do you have a working link for downloading the stock firmware? I have downloaded few and none of them even let me install them (status 0 error)
Any ideas?
Odin is already being used v3.0.7
Format System Data Cache dalvik. Realy... Then flash stock firmware using ODIN!

I was able to finally bring it up!!
Basically I looked for a stock firmware for T-Mobile and after formatting the phones multiple times I tried this ROM
using ODIN and it got rid of the Koodo logo and replaced it with a T-Mobile logo and then it BOOM loaded to start screen finally!! :laugh:
I was about to hammer the phone. So, trust me I was very happy to see it work.
Thank you for your quick and helpful response :good:
Cheers :victory:

The first boot always takes longer as it is setting up, but no longer than ~5 minutes.
Anyway... If you've waited and it is boot looping, try these steps:
Make sure your recovery is up to date.
Wipe system, data, cache, and dalvik cache.
Flash ROM, gapps, and any addons
Wipe cache and dalvik
Reboot. After first reboot is complete and on setup screen, wait 5 minutes and reboot into recovery.
Wipe cache and dalvik again. Reboot
This reboot could also take ~5 minutes, but the others shouldn't as long as you don't wipe cache and dalvik.
You should see an "Android is Upgrading" screen. After this is done, complete setup and you should be good to go.

Back to stock rom for now, prepare (charge until full).
Re-root, then reboot to recovery to try again flashing the rom.
Always format /system, /cache, /data/media first when installing different roms. Good luck

Stock rom is working fine? Is root working on stock?
Did you get any errors while flashing costom roms?
I remember a folk here got a same problem as you, and i think it's not resolved yet..
Maybe you and him have a "special" devices.
Don't worry, it's not a problem with your ext-sd because i use it all the time. and if it was ext-sd problem, you'll get an error while flashing.
I suggest messages devs in developement section, maybe they can figure out what is wrong.
And of course i think it's not safe to restore others nandroid backup, so don't mind find it.
God speed, wish I can help you more :angel:

Like I said earlier, you should have flashing stock rom first to remove root via odin/hemidall.. you can find it at sammobile,com
then re-root with link i gave earlier again via odin/hemidall, and format in recovery like i said earlier. no wonder you still fail..
you should have philz touch recovery instead cwm if you succeed.
