i have tried to root my phone, then got error message about su has stopped, so i tried following directions to unroot, i have downloaded several stock firmwares, 1 worked and brought my phone back to OS 4.1.1, i thought it was fixed and unrooted, so i did software update, and now stuck on power up, i have tried to go back and download the 4.1.1 back on it with no success, i cant even get in recovery mode. i have tried kies, and that doesnt work, have searched and nothing is helping, or spending hours downloading stock firmware that does not work, it will either fail, and 2 of them do say pass, but phone still locked on power up. any help would def be appreciated
Hi,
You should definitely ask for help in your device section Q&A, so the experts who own your device can assist you,

Keep in mind Odin will usually fail if Kies is running. End all kies processes in you pc's task manager.
Good luck!
Thank you. Thread closed.

I attempted to root my SGH-I747. I used the towelroot one click root tool. After I successfully rooted (checked with SUPER SU, I believe), I used ROM Manager to create a backup. I then followed guidingtech.com's guide to flashing custom ROMs to flash the FlashingDroid ROM on to my phone. After the installation appeared to finish, my phone promptly turned off. I attempted to turn it back on, nothing happened. I attempted to load in to recovery mode, nothing. I attempted to boot in to download mode, once again nothing. I plugged it in to my computer via USB, heard the device connect sound, and then the "triple bonk" error sound.
After speaking with some of my more tech savvy friends, they and I think it is a hard brick, but they suggested I come here for more possible help.
What do you think?
Hi,
Well, I'd normally recommend returning to stock when a device is mucked up, but your first issue is getting it turned on...

Hey everyone, I'm using a GT-P5100 (3G + Wifi) O2 UK rooted tablet and for the last month it has been broken. It started rebooting itself randomly every now and then, and then suddenly it wouldn't even boot up for 15 seconds before it would restart itself again.
I am able to get into safe mode and I can get into the boot options, but when I factory reset it does nothing, I've tried from the boot menu, from safe-mode options and even from the dial up code.
I tried to connect my tablet to my PC as a media device and format it but that didn't work either; I can't connect it as a disk then format it that way because they took out 'mass storage mode' on this firmware.
I then tried to flash a stock ROM in Odin but every time I tried it would fail until I used Odin.v1.3, but guess what, it rebooted itself and my entire tablet is still exactly the same.
(the option was on AP ram in v1.3 not AP nand I don't know if that makes a difference.)
If anyone can point me in the right direction I would appreciate it so much. I have been trying for weeks to fix this and I just don't know what to do anymore, I tried on another forum but nobody answered me.
Hi,
This would be best posted in your device section so the experts who own your device can help. I will request this be moved to here,

Make sure kies is not running to use Odin. End all kies processes in your task manager on the pc.
Good luck!
Thank you very much I have posted it there instead ^^

My sim card wasnt working and to fix that i decided to format my phone by flashing Stock ROM using Odin [I had root], running on Cyanogenmod. While doing so, it was taking a hell lot of time and I didnt know what to do, so i pulled the cable and restarted the phone and this message came on: "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in kies & try again."
So i did that using kies, followed the procedure..downloaded the firmware to the computer, blah blah, but while "transferring that to the mobile phone" procedure, it got stuck at 0% and for hours it wont move!!
I tried using Odin again, but it just dont work!!
Please help me!!..I cant even go to my phone now..my (Home + Power button + Volume down) is accessible, but not recovery.
Hi,
Asking here in this help thread in your device section would be best,
> Samsung Galaxy S III I9300, I9305 > Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting > [HELP THREAD] Galaxy S3 Ask any question
A couple ideas too.... Try a different version of Odin. Also, Odin usually fails if Kies is running. End all kies processes in the task manager on the pc. Try a different cable and USB port on your PC. And forget kies, it won't work if your rooted or are not completely stock.
Again, for more help, ask in the thread I linked above.
Good luck!
Thank you. Thread closed.
Hey Guys,
I am not sure if this is in the right thread but I need help with my Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1, 2012 edition, GT-N8010 16gb wifi model. I flashed it about a year ago with a custom ROM and it was working 100%. It hasn't been used in a while and this happened when I turned it on after a it wasn't used for a few weeks. It currently cannot get past the samsung logo when I start it up. If I start it holding the volume and power button I can get it to Odin mode/download mode where the screen says, "Downloading, Do not turn off target!!" In the top corner it says that the current binary is custom and the system status is official and finally RP SWREV: A2.
I have flashed this with stock software AND a custom Rom with Odin 3.9 and whilst flashing I can see a status bar going across the screen and then Odin say Pass and reboots the tablet but the reboot stalls at the samsung logo. I have also tried to flash CWM and again, Odin says pass but still not getting past the boot logo. When I flashed a stock ROMI think the current binary changes to samsung official, or maybe the system status says samsung official, either way it seems like Odin is successful but yet I still don't get a successful boot.
Should I flash a pit file? To be honest I am not quite sure what that would do, I know as much to say a pit file will repartition but beyond that I really have no idea what a pit file is, or where to get a 100% legitimate one as I know it is incredibly risky.
Seeing as how Odin recognises the tablet I am confident I have not bricked it, softbrick maybe, but surely something can be done to get this up and running due to the fact I can still send and receive a signal through usb? One question I have is, now that i have flashed a custom ROM and stock ROM without any success would USB Debugging be deactivated due to the new stock ROM?
I have got the profession version of Skipsoft Toolkit for this model but cannot seem to make any headway.
Sorry about the long post but I wanted to get all the details in for you guys to reduce the questions going back and forth. Any help would be HUGELY appreciated.
Thanks a million in advance!!!!

Hi guys have a bit of a problem with my tab,
I have tried to factory reset it as it was running slow. (never been rooted or touch from standard) and it has just sat me on a "Downloading... Do not turn off target" screen, for the past 15 hours!!
I have tried holding power button + Volume Down to get into a recovery mode but screen just flashes then pops up with the same message.
I have been looking through the internet at loads of different posts trying different things with no joy. Only hoping that with the post being relatively old now someone may have a new way to fix this issue.
Okay here is what i have found out to help anyone help me...
It is not connecting to Kies it registering a device there but eventually pops up with a message saying "device taking to long to respond".
It is registering in device manager (see picture)
Have tried to use one of the guides from here to go through Odin and upload Rom to it,
this is the rom i used : N8010XXUDNE4_N8010BTUDNF1_HOME.tar.md5
When it was going through it said Failed to partition.
Did some more googling and searching and found a PIT file and tried again.
This failed.
Completely stuck now don't no what to do so any help would be great.
