Hello guys,before with the rom hidro ponic 4.4 all was well.After i want change my rom and i've brick my asus after flash rom unofficial cm10..because the camera apk not found, and dispay is total green..I suppose the problem is the rom but after another flash rom the problem is same.On again the display is lock on the logo Asus and upstar on the little: the device unlock..stop.My asus there's no way to get it to recognize at pc and the driver installed not found..are't fastboot logo in Controll Pannel.I've not possilìbility to choce android--usb--wipe data.Help me please thank you sorry for my English
What about booting into recovery? Or fastboot?
As far as I understand your post Android isn't booting, but what if you hold volume-down when you turn on the tab?
I have almost the same problem. I flashed a bad boot blob (vanilla linux, not android) and now I'm stuck at the first Asus logo if I boot normally. But I still have fastboot and CWM recovery so I'm confident I can get it back into shape (even though a restore in CWM didn't help)
I think there's no way to unbrick the device,because I have the same problem.
I flash my device to official 4.1 and I found I lost root of my device
So I try to downgrade my device,but I failed...
Then I try to enter recovery and I failed again...
At last I try to wipe data of my device but it had no respond...
Of course,I had to reboot my device...
The result is:It bricked...
The symptom is just like the thread starter
What should I do???
I tried to contact the customer service of ASUS,but they said the device which unlocked by yourself couldn't get any warranty,even I willing to pay for it
(I think the customer service of ASUS is too bad,especially their attitude)
(I'm also sorry for my poor English...)
this is simple
download the asus jelly bean launcher.zip
from their website
unzip the launcher so its just the eepad 10.blahblah.zip
if it says update launcher you still need to extract this
then flash the twrp jelly bean recovery
now add the official jb rom to an external sd card
and flash
reboot
and voila
reboot again to fastboot and reflash recovery afterwards
and then flash root
worked for me

e...Thanks anyway
But my problem(the same as the thread starter) is:I couldn't enter either fastboot nor recovery
If I could enter one of it,I think I can fix it...
(Maybe I misunderstand what you mean?)

Hello guys, but for this type of brick no one has an answer? Method with nvflash can 'operate according to you ..? But I'm trying to appear APX and install the drivers as a guide is a company because it makes them install it
As far as I can see nvflash is coming to TF300T, it has been developed for T201 (http://androidroot.mobi/t3_nvflash/). But at least for TF201 they have to have fastboot first, so that may not help you.
If I understand you correctly nothing is booting and you have neither ADB nor fastboot access. In that case I don't think there's anything to do except wait and hope for a working nvflash or to try to have Asus fix it, but since the tab is unlocked they probably won't do so for free.
It seems this tab bricks easily.
I have the same problem, and I hope nvflash too. But I don't know nvflash in dev or no. This my best device which die first. Cry
Having the same problem here also. Only had the tf300t for less than a week.
Here is a sticky to a thread I made. I'm just waiting for people to put in a bunch of ideas. Hopefully NVFLASH doesn't need fastboot.

Hi !
...to force entry in recovery ...you need first to reset your device than go to recovery ;
- press for 10 sec. power button , release and quickly press volume down and power button at the same time ! -> normal the device should be entered in recovery ! Good luck ! :good:

...Tried it about 1000 times, not possible, but thanks anyway. No fastboot possible, NVFLASH won't be working either...
I asked our friends at androidroot.mobi if it would be possible to have this issue solved with NVFLASH, this is their response:
@AndroidRootMobi Is it worth waiting for NVFLASH on (very hard) softbricked TF300t? Or should I go to @Asus
@AndroidRootMobi
@Joanuz @ASUS Sorry. If/when we support TF300T, you will need device-specific files. So no brick recovery if you're already bricked.
It sucks, I know. I'll be sending mine back to ASUS tomorrow. No warranty. Hopefully a reflash will do the job (normally it should be around 75 euro), if the mainboard needs to be replaced, the total costs will be around 200... I will open a thread here once it's under repair. Good luck!
Same problem. Stucked at Asus Logo but i can go into recovery. What can I do? Help me please
My PC finds it as Fastboot.
Seem I'm no alone...
Seem I'm not the only one.
This morning I bricked my tablet, 5 minutes after I bought a wall charger on EBay... :crying:
As for now the only answers seem to be from people that don't read post good.
We can't get to use the recovery...
Again, if someone knows how reset the tablet prior booting...
I beleive that its the only other way.
The last possibility, buy a new one...
I believe the problem started before.
- I unlocked my tablet more that a month ago, at the Jelly Bean release.
- Rooted
- Installed the official release
- Everything went well, up to this morning
- I noticed that my Rom Manager Premium start to show adds
- Goo manager refused to install recovery script
- Then I tried to go in recovery, it fails.
- I said to myself that it was better to start from scratch
- I tried a Factory reset using setting menu.
- After this step the tablet started to show This device is unlocked
-After the last step the device wouldn't boot no other way...
I don't know what happened but it seem a bit strange that everything worked fine before this morning.
For sure I'll keep exploring ways to get out of this mess.
But if I have to buy another tablet, there's a chance that I'll go to a Nexus 7...
Good luck to all the other unfortunate that that are in the same boat.

Hi back,
After I bricked my device i sended back my tablet to canadian customer service.
At first the didn't wanna fix the proble and the service told me that he needed to change the motherboard.
I argue a while and after an email discussion whit the customer service agent, they told me that they would fix the problem for me THIS TIME.
This morning I received my tablet and everything seem to work fine, as it was reset to factory.
BUT, after I started to investigate, seem that in no time the cover removed.
And maybe the motherboard change is a trick to suck more money from the users.
In fact I can't understand why you'de have to change the motherboard after the tablet is bricked.
Maybe I'm wrong, but I find this way of doing thing awefull, and I consider lucker that I got outa this mess...
Good luck to the others unfortunates

No need waiting for NVFlash, it is here (check developer section) but will not work on unit if already messed up.
I have used two things that aren't mentioned here; I don't recommend either but if you are ready to ship off it might work for you as it did for me.
Both times were caused from ota updates.
1. use of reset button while powered on, if that fails to help, poweroff and reset button again.
2. let battery run down, put ac charger on power strip which is turned off but plugged into ac. Hold foot over power strip button, hold power and down volume on unit; mash power button on power strip with foot while holding power and down volume on unit.
I should have said neither of these fixed my unit; they just allowed me to get into fastboot to fix my unit.
Bricked TF300GT (please help)
Hello developers,
I have a bricked Transformer the goes in a loop flashing ASUS every 5 seconds or so. That was after having unlocked and then reset to factory default.
I have been reading a lot of articles at various forum for a solution. I have never seen something so confusing. Please is someone can point to me a page where the un-bricking is described step by step for that aparticular model?
Many thanks in advance
Yves
NB: I have tried the -volume and power button trick or the +volume power button that just make a USB connection on my PC

i got my tf300t bricked to.
got my tablet this weekend wanted to install cyanogenmod.
just did a week early'er a other one (the one for my mother)
that went well
my tablet installed de orginal 4.2.1 from asus.
Today wanted to install cyanogenmod.
run first de unlocker v8
the installed fastboot twrp421.blob
when i went to the twrp menu the cyanogenmod wont install, but the orginal wont start also not, it want nothing to start.
tryed with external sd.
ok i thought i want cmw so i run the recovery-clockwork-5.5.0.4-tf300t.img
went wel also.
i can only go to cwm but they are no file rights and still can install a zip or mount a sd internal or external.
now fastboot is not working
when i turn the tablet on it is going to cwm
wat i can do?
edit:
cmw version = v6.0.2.3
Me too! asus ask 230$ for replace new mainboard. I think they want eat money, because they already have nvfash to fix. 230$ can buy new item from amazon. I hate asus and never buy any thing of asus. Very bad support.
Good morning everyone,
I have a zopo zp980t 32gb 2gb ram model whihc from reading and checking mine does not have fcc or b logo under battery if that helps to know what rom i can use.
BUT i have a big problem.
Phone was working very well on latest firmware which it came with a month ago.
I changed boot animation once from someone on a site and all good as original was annoying.
He made me a custom animation and when i clicked on update as with other's, this time the screen went bright screen and went onto the blue adnroid icon with spinning circle going around it and now it just stays on this.
I am gutted as phone will not boot.
I can only get into recovery menu with usb cable conencted to pc and pressing vol up and power, this will not work without usb attached?
Anyway i am trying in vain to at least get it working again and flashing a rom original with flashtool 4.2, this now is into 2nd day and getting nowhere.
I am running windows 7 home edition and the driver is the issue as i get BROM error ...............port etc (1013) which i assume is driver not installed which i have tried way too often.
Is there a clear tut how to get this done as i feel once i get this corrected i will hopefully be able to get phone running again, maybe?
I don't like asking for much and always will work and learn myself by reading but their are so many models of this 980 it is not possible to know which rom i can use etc.
Any guidance is really much apprecaited.
Absolutley gutted what's happened not long after buying it.
Thank you so much for any advice given.
Fixed & how to
This is for other's that may have same problem or simply want to know how to reflash from fresh.
First of all i was having issues with the usb driver i.e port not installing.
So i used my wifes netbook and installed perfectly without issue.
I then went to zopo main original roms page and downloaded BOTH roms to save hassle.
As my phone is 32gb 1.5 quad core, Black under battery, no FC, no B and no replies to help me find out what model i have i went testing.
I started the flashtool 4.2, then i tried firstly the:-
ZP980/C2 4.2 ZP980_0610 341.4MB 2013/6/10 Normal Version (PHONE DOESN'T BOOT)
Secondly I then flashed:-
ZP980/C2 4.2 ZP980_0610 341.4MB 2013/6/10 B version (THIS WORKS FULLY)
So now completed flash and phone working.
Then i connected the phone to my wireless network, and in the phone i clicked on the WIRELESS UPDATE app.
This then provided me straight away with the latest update being:- BUILD NUMBER ZP980 20130818-173942.
I rebooted phone and now latest firmware.
I wanted to root it now and easiest way is simply using a program called EROOT.
Make sure USB DEBUGGING is ON, wait few seconds and hit ROOT.
Super user now in phone and fully rooted.
Job done

Just picked up a Flex 8 on Black Friday. Not bad for $80. Not sure if I'd pay full price for it though.
It seems good for the price so far, except I'm having a rough time trying to root it.
Anyone have one and root it?
Employee here and I had to pouch one up as well for the price of $80. Now to figure out root.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
Let us know if you get it.
I've tried Bin4ry, doomlord, tpsparky, played around with it myself a bit. Still not luck. Closest I got is normal on Bin4ry. Just when it reboots, it has no root privaledges. su is in /data/local/tmp but it fails to do anything...
I haven't messed around with it until this very moment. I will admit that the price is killer but initial impression with the device could be better. I was impressed and I mean really impressed with its quadrant score. I'll root this device later today. Black Friday sales and I am tired.
---------- Post added at 01:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:18 AM ----------
I found a link to root this device on both ICS and jellybean. I will personally look into it tomorrow but I will post it if you would like to go ahead. The guide itself was written for ICS but later down the thread you will find another link to a working root for jellybean.
http://androidforums.com/insignia-flex-all-things-root/661247-how-root-insignia-flex.html
Please root at your own discresion and I sure hope you purchased a protection plan (GSP) for your tablet.
also picked this up at my BB, was surprised when i walked in at 3pm and they still had about 10. i want to root too
We had a large quantity to sell as well and they all went. It is honestly not half bad. And I would really recommend getting the GSP for the tablet in case of anything. Will report back after rooting.
Let us know if you have any luck. I found the link you posted before which led me to try Bin4ry. The script seems to be updated for JB in general but still had no luck. I'm on a Mac and haven't tried any of the windows rooting apps, like posted at the bottom of that thread. I do have a windows partition and would be willing to try that method if needed. That chinese one at the bottom seems shady regardless though.. I hope there is an alternative to that

I managed to get the CX-803 version of CWM for Rockchip 3066 from AndroTab.info to work by replacing its kernel with ours by unpacking and repacking with RK3xxx-Firmware-Tools by Sergio.
Note: This is for the Insignia NS-14T002 (aka iRiver NS-14T002) tablet that shipped with Android 4.2.2
Be EXTREMELY careful! Highly recommend you dump your current kernel and recovery partitions and save them somewhere before flashing anything.
If for some reason the recovery doesn't work, you can flash your stock recovery back as long as you can get back into root shell. But, if it fails to boot normally, I have no idea how to fix it. I have not been able to get any of the Rockchip flashing utilities to recognize the tablet so far, in bootloader mode (these devices have no fastboot) or otherwise. So don't blame me if you somehow brick your tablet.
You have been warned!!
CWM & Stock* Recovery image for NS-14T002
* if for some reason you can't back up your own, but again highly recommend backing up your existing recovery in case it's different from mine
You need root, and you need to do the install from root shell (don't forget to su) as described here.
I used /data/local instead of /dev - anywhere writable should be okay.
To boot into recovery:
adb reboot recovery
power off tablet, disconnect USB, press and hold Vol+ and Power until recovery comes up.
USB disconnect is not a strict requirement, but the battery status thing tends to get in the way.
In stock recovery, push Vol+ and Vol- simultaneously to bring up the menu. CWM menu should be visible at launch.
install petrus's Reboot App and use it to Reboot into recovery
Note: In CWM recovery you can swipe up for Vol+ (move up), swipe down for Vol- (move down), swipe left for Power (select), and swipe right for Back.
Re:Insignia Flex Tablet
I actually just purchased one of these last night. It was on sale at Best Buy for $99! I have successfully rooted it and it actually works great! I used Kingo Root to root but first I installed pda net first to install the necessary drivers. I have used this program to root several Android devices and haven't had a problem thus far!

Great news! I didn't have luck with that one but it might have been the machine I was using at the time.
Just to confirm, your model came with Jellybean 4.2, Model NS-14T002?
The previous version with Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0 was easier to root.

Yes my device came with 4.2.2 Jelly Bean! My first attempt using Kingo Root it did not see my device. Windows would not install the drivers needed. So I installed PDA net for windows and choose other in the program and once it was done installing it had configured the necessary drivers for Kingo Root to find my tablet and it rooted fine within a couple minutes after that! :good:
help!

I was wondering, because I rooted my insignia flex 8 tablet and downloaded an app to try and customize the navigation bar and the developer provided a way on how to do it but said it was risky and took the risk anyway. Unfortunately, after turning on my tablet, it gets stuck on the insignia logo which I'm assuming it is stuck in the boot screen. I emailed the developer on how to fix this and said to flash a ROM to it. But I am just wondering if I am able to still do this even if my tablet gets stuck on the boot screen and freezes. I used ultimate dynamic navbar lite to try and customize my navbar.

I don't have the tablet anymore as it was a gift for a family member that lives elsewhere (I just wanted root so I could remote control it with TeamViewer QuickSupport), but will try to help from my notes and memory.
Flashing ROM may be difficult.
There is no fastboot on these Rockchip devices...
I couldn't find a way to flash without it being bootable and accessible via ADB
None of the Rockchip flashing tools would recognize it, even when I thought I got it booted into flash mode - it loaded drivers, but the flash tools still didn't see it.
The only way I know how to flash is to use a flash tool via ADB root shell.
Have you tried plugging it into USB on computer and booting it? Even if it doesn't reach the launcher, maybe it is accessible from ADB?
If you can access ADB, you may be able to reverse whatever the app changed from ADB shell and uninstall the app. (Politely ask the author for help)
You might be able to flash the system image I took too, but that has potential to brick it even worse.
If you have custom recovery loaded, you should just be able to restore from a backup.
If you don't have custom recovery loaded, things get a little more hairy...
You can try booting into Safe mode, maybe it'll bypass the offending app.
Power off tablet
Unplug USB*
Press and hold Vol- and Power until (hopefully) it completely boots
Try booting into standard recovery and see what your options are there - Factory Reset might help (depends what was changed and where)
Power off tablet
Unplug USB*
Press and hold Vol+ and Power until recovery comes up (Android with open chest)
Press Vol+ and Vol- simultaneously to bring up the menu.
* while unplugging USB isn't really required, because a battery app launches shortly afterward, it can make getting into recovery and safe mode more difficult
The folks over at Freaktab and Vondroid are really the experts at this Rockchip stuff.
For reference, the platform is RK3066, but there are many variations of the platform (different WiFi, memory configuration, etc) so you can't just grab any ROM.
Thank you!

If you can access ADB then try loading the CWM recovery I posted above. If you can at least get CWM up, at worst case I can give you a copy of my stock backup to restore.

Did you get things sorted out?
If anyone is interested or needs it, Insignia sent me the GPL source.
You can also request it directly from them like it says on the website but it took a week or two (they might not have had a procedure in place yet, the agent had to forward my request to a different department) and I had completely forgotten until an unexpected package arrived.

Just thought someone might want to know, kingo root works, updated to 4.4.2, Booster plus battery saver pro is worth the money, better than 3c so far, still looking for more sources, any advice or help is appreciated especially for a recovery, dual bootloaders, ugh

Hello guys,
Long time reader, first time poster over here.
I'm having a serious problem and wouldn't bother you with it, but i've scrolled through hundreds of forumposts, tried serveral things but haven't find the solution yet. (because the problems in those posts are only a part of my problem :s)
So I hope, by posting and explaining it myself, you guys can help me fixing my HTC One S (wouldn't want to lose it this way -.- )
Here it goes: my phone has been rooted for more than a year now, i've used several ROMs, been through some problems but no big deal and was able to solve them myself).
A couple of months ago, I decided to try the newest Cyanogen (11) mod based on Android 4.4, needed a new recovery but got it installed and working fine.
After a while I installed a Nightly update, and after that the trouble started and went from bad to worse to nearly death
first of all the phone kept rebooting at total random moments, enormously frustrating!
so I decided to do another update, after this update, I wasn't able to turn my Wi-Fi on
No big deal i thought, but after a while it began to annoy me, so another Nightly update was incoming
After this update **** really got messy, the message "com.android.systemui has stopped" kept popping up and the only thing I could do was click OK, then it popped back up -> OK -> and so on and so on
so my phone was as good as useless at this point
At this point I've had it with this ROM, so I put another one on my internal SD card (via coupling with my PC): Beanstalk 4.4 STABLE
This new ROM actually was installed as an update of the previous one, so the damned message "com.android.systemui has stopped" was still popping up constantly.
At that point I totally had it with 4.4 and decided to put an older ROM on it with which i've had had a good experience.
And that's where **** got fcked up:
When I go into recovery (CMW 6.0.4.5) and want to access my internal storage, it says "E: can't mount /storage/sdcard0"
So I wanted to connect to my pc to flash a new ROM to my device using Fastboot, but my pc isn't recognizing my phone and neither is Fastboot.
In fastboot, when I try "fastboot device" it keeps searching and doesn't find my device.
My PC however sees my phone, cause I hear the usbconnection sound when they're coupled, but it isn't showing up as a Removable Storage Device.
So to summarize:
once my phone is booted, i can't do anything apart from clicking OK on the "com.android.systemui has stopped" alert
in recovery, i can't mount my internal storage
when 'connected' to the PC, the PC and fastboot can't detect the device.
Other info:
i've tried it on a pc running W7 and W8
phone is HTC One S S4
I hope you guys can help me out here!

Hello guys,
Long time reader, first time poster over here.
I'm having a serious problem and wouldn't bother you with it, but i've scrolled through hundreds of forumposts, tried serveral things but haven't find the solution yet. (because the problems in those posts are only a part of my problem :s)
So I hope, by posting and explaining it myself, you guys can help me fixing my HTC One S (wouldn't want to lose it this way -.- )
Here it goes: my phone has been rooted for more than a year now, i've used several ROMs, been through some problems but no big deal and was able to solve them myself).
A couple of months ago, I decided to try the newest Cyanogen (11) mod based on Android 4.4, needed a new recovery but got it installed and working fine.
After a while I installed a Nightly update, and after that the trouble started and went from bad to worse to nearly death
first of all the phone kept rebooting at total random moments, enormously frustrating!
so I decided to do another update, after this update, I wasn't able to turn my Wi-Fi on
No big deal i thought, but after a while it began to annoy me, so another Nightly update was incoming
After this update **** really got messy, the message "com.android.systemui has stopped" kept popping up and the only thing I could do was click OK, then it popped back up -> OK -> and so on and so on
so my phone was as good as useless at this point
At this point I've had it with this ROM, so I put another one on my internal SD card (via coupling with my PC): Beanstalk 4.4 STABLE
This new ROM actually was installed as an update of the previous one, so the damned message "com.android.systemui has stopped" was still popping up constantly.
At that point I totally had it with 4.4 and decided to put an older ROM on it with which i've had had a good experience.
And that's where **** got fcked up:
When I go into recovery (CMW 6.0.4.5) and want to access my internal storage, it says "E: can't mount /storage/sdcard0"
So I wanted to connect to my pc to flash a new ROM to my device using Fastboot, but my pc isn't recognizing my phone and neither is Fastboot.
In fastboot, when I try "fastboot device" it keeps searching and doesn't find my device.

I've had success getting a connection to Windows just be using a different USB port, the ones at the back are best. Then at least you get fastboot access...But I also still have the problem with the sdcard, still working on that, trying to figure out a way to fix it from fastboot...
any progress yet rosanna? I was also able to make the connection with my pc, by using the usb ports on the back (thanks for that!). But I haven't been able to mount my sd card yet. I tried with another recovery but that didn't do the trick.
I got into the UI of my current ROM, and then my pc said I needed to format the SD before I could use it.
But I wasn't sure this is a good idea to do in windows.
Anyone know if it is save to format your internal sd card when prompted to do so in windows?

Try using a Linux live cd (try Ubuntu). You'll need a blank DVD to burn the iso to. Reboot your computer and see if it recognizes your device (no drivers needed). If it does try a more stable build this time.

I did read through that thread and tried it.
But i'm not quite sure everything went as plannend.
I even think it went wrong on the first step, flashing back to the stock recovery. This one isn't included in the all in one toolkit right?
So I started searching for one myself (I have an S4 VLE version of the phone) but I haven't downloaded one yet, although I've seen links that bring me to new links and so on and so on, I wasn't quite sure which link to trust.
If you could help me further I would really appreciate it

1 minute - downloadlink is on the way
Here you are: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2622663&d=1394422408
You can flash it with the toolkit selecting "Custom recovery".
When you're Storage is back alive and kickin' you can flash a custom revovery again.
My favourites are
TWRP 2.7.0.0 - http://techerrata.com/file/twrp2/ville/openrecovery-twrp-2.7.0.0-ville.img
and
PhilZ advanced CWM - http://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/ville
In my opinion TWRP is easiest to handle and PhilZ has some more features.

Another direct link here, I personally flashed it manually trough fastboot, for me the easiest and fastest way to do it. Then proceed to the clear storage and flash your custom recovery (like @LS.xD I recommend TWRP but this is your choice )
THX Guys! :victory:
Thanks to your links to the stockrecovery, my phone is back alive and kicking.
I feared for a while for my phone, but on the other hand I knew the xda community would help me fix it!
1000 times thanks :good::laugh:

Hello
I have the pleasure of trying to help a friend with her tablet, the samsung tab 2 10.1 - gt-p5100 .
The main thing working is the on button , which will boot but only to "samsung tab2 10.1" screen and then black /turn off.
Also I can get it to boot to ODIN mode by holding VOL DWN + power,
after proceeding to Continue with VOL UP , I get the "downloading "
and the screen also tells me
ODIN MODE
Product name GT-P5100
Custom binary download: none
Current binary: Samsung_official.
Odin mode can be turned off by holding the power button for a long while.
The tablet has no functions towards VOL UP + Power which should trigger factory / recovery setting. They do no exist on this device for what ever weird reason.
If plugged in with turned of screen the screen reveals a frozen (not spinning) thinking symbol like an asterix * , the one that would turn into a battery icon should this device boot correctly. But the battery icon never shows up, only the "frozen thinking icon"
Since I have a similar device, the first tab 10.1 called gt-P7500 , some of the components are the same.
So I have trouble shooted already these steps:
Opened device , unplugged battery, waited X minutes, re-plugged. Nothing, same problems.
Opened device, replaced port cord for power cable (the I/O flat cable, is the same in the 7500), Nothing, same problems.
Opened device, replaced battery (also the same from the 7500) , Nothing, same problems.
Also a combo of the both , Nothing, same problems.
Also I reverse tested the flat cord in my own tablet , my tablet boots fine, so the cord is fine.
Also with the battery in my own tablet, my tablet boots fine, the battery looks healty and was almost full, I recharged it fully to 100 % on my own tablet before putting it back into the p5100.
I have also tried various plugs, cable, wall-chargers, car-chargers - originals and copies alike., 1amps, 2amps...from other devices, nothing
I still do no think the charging is the problem nor the battery it self, all these work on my 7500 tablet, but on the p5100 : Nothing, same problems.
Also.. I think if the tablet would have battery issues it would not power on at all and never ever get into ODIN mode, this screen can be on for hours on end.
I also downloaded to see which functions the Odin programme could help me out with, the tablet can connect to the ID:COM , no problem and find any given ROM on my HD.
Of course I also tested connecting the tablet to the PC with the original USB cable WITHOUT Odinmode, but it will trigger connected/not connected sounds and my windows 10 will say : could not identify usb etc etc , and the screen on the tablet will turn on with that "frozen thinking icon"
So..what else can I do beside ask my friend to use the darn thing as a Frisbee ??
How can I get a normal boot sequence going or regain access to recovery/factory settings ??
The device was never rooted, never repaired prior to this. The device is 4 years old, so no more warranty.
check this link
you can try flashing an official firmware without pit file, flash custom recovery and last with pit file. all details should be in the link with details, it's lengthy but should help
Ok so , the occurrences do not mean that the emmc bug has struck this tablet ??? So because it can boot to "downloader" it is still salvageable ?? Please tell me someone if this is the case :crying:
wow i hope so . I have no knowledge of the various innards so to speak, in which order the various bits and bobs are executed and therefor we could know... Meaning my hope now flashing stock/custom and so on and so forth.
What would be the indicators to the emmc bug ? It seems it is a wide spread field of errors , mostly signs of hard brick.
I have just used this P5100XXDNA1_P5100NEEDNA1_P5100XXDMG1_HOME.tar.md5 with ODIN 3.12.3 and it did nothing. The programme ran fine , it worked within minutes. But still boots the same way.
So now while writing my pc is dl'ing the 4Files Firmwares from tsar3000. Sadly I have a feeling it will still boot the same way , I will update once I have tried.

I did mentioned in my guide that if you can enter into download or recovery you can still save the device. but in case it didn't even recovered with the 4 files and pit and considering you tried all the stuffs you could even with the batteries. chances are the case is the faulty emmc card where it's not writing on the card anymore. suspect anything else?
playing Frisbee is a bad idea, you can keep it as a spare if your older device needs some replacement or you can get it repaired.
Hmm ok that does not leave me many options. It is the tablet of my friend, so I will return it to her.
Do you happen to know any sites that deal with the specifics of the hardware?? Meaning a website forum where I can ask these questions. I need to understand which part does what here and specifically which part is failing in this case if we are to throw any more time and money away on this piece. Cheers

Help me anyone ? I have not been able to find the exact problem like mine , described like I did ... Can someone direct me to a hardware forum where someone might know this emmc trouble, can identify it 100 % and tell me which part to exchange ? I am my friend's only help since there are no funds to buy a new tablet for her & her kid. I really hope someone can help guide me furtheron
ok thread is closed, i gave up on this device since I could find no other help and could do nothing else. She kept the charger for her phone and the device was sent to recycle.
