[Completed] [Q] Galaxy tab 3 lite hard bricked? - XDA Assist

Galaxy tab 3 lite SM-T110 wi-fi
The battery died so the only time I see something on screen is when I plug it in a charger or pc. The message I get is "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in kies and try again." the problem with this is that when in charger or connected to the pc it keeps continually flicking off and on making it impossible to establish a steady connection with the pc. I'm at wits end on this one.

Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. You might need to get a new batery but try booting into download mode. If you can then flash the stock firmware with odin. See this, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2459734 Make sure you get the firmware for your specific device.

how to bring back p3100 (solved)

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).

[Completed] How to Unbrick Sprint Galaxy s3??? /Make device visible????

I accidentally deleted the root to my s3 and left it unrooted, im not too sure what else I accidentally deleted but I've been trying to reroot it with it's stock firmware... But its extra hard since my computer detects the device but refuses to connect with it and does not let me interact with it at all (open internal storage). When I start it up, it only shows the SAMSUNG screen and then the Samsung Galaxy S3 screen and then just stays there.... I tried rerooting it using Odin3 but the connection from the phone to the computer failed so now my phone is stuck on the screen where it says "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again." So i downloaded Kies but again, I cant access the device through computer so Kies says, "Device not responding. To resolve issue, reboot the device." Please Help!!!
As this is a double post I will lock the thread.

help!!! my samsung tab 2 SGH-I497 does not turn on or charge

hello friends I have a problem with my samsung tab 2 SGH - i497 when trying to install a custom recovery through the application Install TWRP , now my tab will not start, or load, nor can enter into recovery mode or download mode , please ayudenme I can do to fix it .
Hello,
If your device will not charge, will not boot to any of its modes, has no LED when connected to charger or PC, does not vibrate when power is pressed, will not connect to PC or is not recognized by PC, then unfortunately the device is probably hard bricked and is dead.
There is a chance that a Samsung USB Jig will help you boot it to download mode, they can be found on eBay for $3-5 US. If you get a Jig, insert it in the microUSB port on the device, if it works, it will force the device into download mode and you can then connect to PC and flash your stock firmware or possibly only the stock recovery to replace the custom recovery that bricked your device to recover the device if you are lucky. There may or may not be some other steps required after getting the device recovered to get it correctly repaired, or you might get lucky.
If that doesn't work, then your only other option is to send it in for JTAG service at the repair shop of your choice, you can find them with a Google Search.
Your device probably has a locked bootloader, as do most Samsung devices in the past 2-3 years. Attempting to flash these devices with locked bootloaders with anything other than the devices' current stock firmware or newer results in a permanently bricked device, some can be recovered but not in all cases.
In the future, regardless of how familiar you are with android and flashing, always familiarize yourself with these kinds of details about your specific model number before you do anything to your device. Good luck.
hello friend thanks for replying, I'll try what you tell me usb jig to force download mode, but the problem will be the entry is different from a normal samsung, it is wider, similar to an iPhone...

Try something like this along with the USB jig.
Samsung Tab USB adapter
Connect the adapter to your Tab then connect the USB jig to the adapter. If the jig is going to help you that will work.

Galaxy Note 10.1 Table not recognized through USB

Hi Everyone,
My Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 stuck on Samsung logo during boot. I cannot even go to recovery mode (power + volume up doesnot work). I can only go to ODIN mode. I downloaded odin tool and corresponding firmware from a website, but my problem is that PC donot recognize my tablet now. It doesnot appear as device or recognised by KIES. I reinstalled KIES (not KIES 3, although KIES3 is also installed on the machine to see but still getting the message "USB Device not recognized". Just to let you know that my 3 samsung mobile phones (S3, S4 and S6) are working fine and perfectly recognized by PC/KIES/Smartswitch
The tablet can be charged without an issue but it is not recognized at all by PC through USB. Looks like a dead end for me. Any help is highly appreciated as otherwise tablet was working fine until this problem occured. My tablet UK model is GT-N8010 and out of warranty.
Thanks
Fayyaz
Change usb cable.
Try another port
Try another PC

Download PROPER DRIVERS. Usually they are downloaded by kies but sometimes, they don't work. In case of that, you have to download samsung drivers by yourself. I think you can find it in here or simply google it.
Here is an another issue with laptops that I also encountered: When you plug in, despite you having drivers, pc doesn't recognize it or constantly the device connects and disconnects every 2 seconds. In that case, you need to update your bios version. However, this case is not likely.(If you are not bad luck brian like me) So focus on driver installation.

Bricked P5100 with stock ROM

Hi Guys,
My colleague bring me her daughter' tab. This tab wasn't be used for few months and now they can't start it.
After charge on 100% I can't start this tab, too. Time to time I see splash screen w Samsung TAB logo and battery charging screen.
I boot tab into Odin mode but I PCs where I try to connect this tab can't recognize Tab. I installed drivers for samsung devices and after that I tried install last KIES. Both w/o any progress.
There isn't recovery only Odin mode. Tab has stock ROM, never be rooted and probably locked USB debugging.
Do you have any idea what I may to do? Is there anyway how to bring it to life w/o PC?
Thank you
