how to bring back p3100 (solved) - Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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).

[Q] Help! Odin not detecting my galaxy 3.

Hello, i want help please, anyone can you tell me how to get odin to detect my phone coz it is not detecting the ohne and i m stuck in d middle of installing ics on my phone.
Restart everything
Restart you phone into d/w mode (if your hardware buttons are working ), restart you computer. Now it should detect.
And while you're in the process of flashing, make sure you the cable doesn't get disconnected.
This happened with me too, I just deleted odin & again extracted it from the rom folder(In every kyrillos rom package you can find odin)...
Just delete the old odin & get a new one, it will work...

Is this the first time you are using odin in your computer ? or your already detected before only now it is not detecting ?
because odin works fine in my computer , but wen i try it in my friend's computer
it did not detect
-> reinstall your phone drivers it might help
-> if i am correct Odin detect your phone only in download mode
Come out of odin and just plug your phone in to the comp, if the comp recognises it then you know your usb drivers are working fine on phone and comp, if not then thats your problem. reinstall drivers.
If it did recognise then the problem is with odin. Theres loads of versions out there that have pathway issues and other problems due to the way theyve been aquired or packaged. try typing "I5800_Odin_Multi_Downloader_v4.252.exe" its what i did and mine works everytime.
If i helped, hit thanks
Try with another USB port. It will probably work if you´d try, because I had a similar problem. PC simply didn't recognize my Samsung Galaxy 3, but when I plugged the phone in another USB port, the phone was recognized and so was Odin. But of course it wont go without appropriate drivers.
I had the same problem yesterday and switching USB-ports didn't help. It seemed I didn't have Kies installed so the USB-drivers were missing... After installing Kies everything went fine
hey, I had the same issue.. and what I did to resolve was : I downloaded USB drivers from the below link..installed and rebooted my system..and tried again..it finally got detected..I hope it helps..
link for drivers :
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=728929
What worked for me was after installing the Samsung driver, I updated the driver from the Device Manager while the phone was plugged in and in download mode.Odin found the phone after that.
Battery percentage
Make sure your Battery Percentage is More than 50 %
Check your USB cable is in Working Condition .....

[Q] USB device is not recognized when on "download mode"!

Hi,
I wanted to update an I9003 from Android 2.2 to 2.3.4 JPKP5 (with latona.pit, I used this combination twice with two other phones), I used odin 1.85 for this purpose.
Connected the phone to the PC, it failed to install one of the drivers, but, it appeared in odin... so, I continued :cyclops:.
the operation stopped at about the mid-way and there was "FAIL" and red slot....
Unplugged and plugged it (without restarting, and the progress bar was still there) odin recognized it but couldn't flash again, stuck at "SettingUpConnection"...
I pressed the power button to restart it... then it showed (Phone <!> PC) logo in the screen....
Turned it off by removing the battery, I doesn't boot to recovery nor normal boot...
BUT, I can go into download mode without being apple to connect it to the PC, it shows me (USB device is not recognized) and doesn't appear in odin.
SO.... What is the phone's state and what can I do to fix the problem??
Thank you in advance
you have installed the drivers in your pc? If not yet, install KIES first.
I had the same issue. Even after installing kies my com: port didn't detect . So i reinstalled Windows 7 & installed kies after that. Now odin worked perfect.

I know what you're talking about... the drivers are installed properly and I connect other device to odin properly... I can tell that the problem is because of the device... It's dead for ever!!
I think it is bricked. So try to reinstall the drivers and install any other rom. If it is not working try a JTAG repair.

[Q] Am I bricked?

Despite all my research I think I've bogged it... My P5110 upgraded automatically to JB and I lost CWM in the root although I was still rooted. I have no connection anymore with ODIN through USB to my PC (latest KIES drivers).
I decided to try the AOKP build 2 ROM but I am ashamed to say I tried to install it through mobile ODIN instead of CWM and it hasn't worked.
I have a stock recovery mode and it won't install anything from the external SD and I'm stuck on the Galaxy Tab screen plus the machine won't switch off.
The stock ROM I am trying to get back on is P5110XXBLH3_P5110UVSBLH1_PEO.zip I also have GT-P5113_P5113XARCLH-OTA-P5113UEBLH3_XAR_280235988.zip but no luck with either.
Is it dead?
Don't panic, seems like a driver issue more than a problem with the tablet. Troubleshooting:
Clean tablet USB port
Go to Device Manager in Control Panel, find your tab, go to properties, update driver
Try another computer

Trapped in Download Mode [Possible Brick]

Hi everybody, Yesterday my friend and i were trying to upgrade his Samsung Galaxy Core (GT-I8260L) from official stock jellybean 4.1.2 to kitkat 4.4.4 unnoficial. We rooted it succesfully, installed Super SU, and BusyBox. Then we downloaded a TWRP file to flash it through ODIN. the flash was succesfull but when the phone rebooted it got stuck at the download mode. It doesnt boot, and we can't acces the recovery by any means. it just turns the screen on and show the download mode screen (picture attached).
We have tried everything, but the thing is that the device isn't recogogniced by the pc (We've tried in a win 8.1 and win 7 pc, but had no luck.). It fails to install the right drivers. we've tried to download almost every samsung phone drivers, but none of them worked. ODIN also fails to recognize it.
we also tried Heimdall, but when we try to install the drivers it does recognize the phone as 'MSM7x27' for some reason.
We also have problems setting up the 'SAMSUNG Mobile USB CDC Composite Device Driver', failing to make it work every time we tried to configure it (Automatic Windows Driver Install or Downloading it manually).
I hope someone can at least guide us through the solution or suggest a way to fix it.
Thanks in advance

P3100 logo only

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.
Odin wont recognize it.
I cannot get into odin mode or recovery.
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.)
PS: I had a thread running in the general forum but think I will get more and proper answers here.
