[Completed] I think I have bricked my SM-T320, help - XDA Assist

model: sm-t320 wifi only, just flashed cm13 nightly, i believe it was the one released on the first of February 2016, the tablet was working okay sometimes a bit laggy but that is expected with the nightly not fully developed or whatever. i installed and am still using cm13 on my tablet but i installed it on my friends tablet which is the exact same tablet, color and all, and this happened: it shut of by itself and when i tried to turn it back on it wouldnt. i plugged it in and the battery charging icon turned on but it was only the icon with the loading circle image in the middle. so i let it charge for a good six hours and during that the screen stayed on with the same image. when i unplugged it, after about two seconds the screen dimmed and started flashing on and of as if there was a loose connection. then it just shuts off. when it is unplugged i cant do anything, (turn on, download mode, recovery) the screen just stays blank. when i have it plugged in i can access the first boot screen displaying "samsung galaxy tab pro" and it will not go any further. i can also access download mode perfectly. i cannot access recovery mode, it just goes straight to the first boot screen. i tried flashing the stock rom and was unsuccessful. either because the computer was not supplying enough voltage/amps to keep the tablet running or it just simply would not boot. the flash was successful each time i tried on odin but the same issues happened on the tablet each time. i did not install Gapps because he just wanted to try it out quickly and maybe keep it or go back to stock if (that helps). i believe that is all i know. please help me!

My Galaxy Tab 7.0 plus (GT-6200) suddenly died, help please!

The unit has been used for about 2 months and remains quite new. It was quite stable before. Yesterday night, about half an hour after plugged in for charging and with WiFi Hotspot turned on for sharing 3G data to another netbook, the unit suddenly rebooted itself. It then stopped at the start-up screen and remained there for several minutes. I kept holding the power button for a few seconds to turn it off but it then automatically reboot itself afterwards, and stopped at the start-up screen again. It means that even complete turning off is not possible.
Trying to enter into recovery mode showed the following few lines:
# MANUAL MODE #
-- Updating application...
Copying Common Apks.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
and then it automatically rebooted again. It means that it can't enter into recovery mode normally.
It was possible to enter into download mode. And it was the first time this machine went into download mode. I run Odin Downloader and flashed the official stock ROM. After showing "Pass", the device rebooted itself. Unfortunately, it still stopped at the start-up screen, just showing "Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 plus". It is really troubesome. I have experience playing several Android devices before and it is the first time I face such troublesome problem.
The device is an official product. The biggest problem is that the original purchase invoice was lost and most likely that I couldn't get official support, repair service or replacement.
May I ask if anyone would kindly provide me some help or advice. Thanks!
Instead of going into download mode go into recovery mode and see if there are any errors. Your scenario is sounding very similar to the one I had in the past.
I just ran into a nasty snag at boot logo as well. nandroid, stock kernel and factory reset were no help. Try Odin back to Stock, it still may not get past boot logo, hold vol up and power to get into recovery and factory reset. Hope it works for you.
Unfortunately I was unable to get into recovery mode even after odin flashing stock ROM.
It rebooted itself a few seconds after displaying some lines of text. I can't see the normal recovery menu.

Will not boot into recovery but will boot into download mode.

My phone is rooted with stock rom. The only changes are listed below
Froze bloat that was safe
changed bootanimation to stock samsung
replaced some apps with inverted versions of themselves (ex. google +, stock messaging)
Here goes:
I was using navigation and I noticed that my phone was off after I had finished. Nothing worked at all, I could not boot into recovery or download. I connected the phone to a charger and red led flashes and an empty battery appears. The battery was full. I could reboot the phone while on the charger, but it would shut off as soon as it got to the homescreen. While off, If I pressed the home button, the green battery would appear as if it were charging. From here I could boot into recovery and download mode. The phone will only boot into these modes while connected to the charger. Here is where it went bad. I attempted to restore a backup while the phone was on the car charger and my car charger got pulled out in the middle of a restore. No charger meant that the phone shut off mid restore. Now, when I plug in the phone, the red led appears and the empty battery with a circle inside appears and then goes away. This repeats itself over and over and the phone buzzes when the empty battery reappears. I can still boot into download mode but not recovery. If I try to flash the stock samsung rom via odin, it says that it passes, however upon automatic reboot the samsung appears and nothing else. After the samsung appears the phone just continues to buzz every 5 seconds or so as if it is trying to do something. Could it be a bootloop? I have done a ton of searching here and now I am resorting to help! Your time is appreciated and beers on me if you can help me get my phone back to normal.
Put your phone into download mode and let it sit on the charger for 30 minutes. After pull and reinsert your battery and then try to power on your phone without your charger. Then proceed to charge your phone to full since it powered on.

This did not work but thank you for the suggestion. From what I have gathered, as long as I can get into recovery then I should be able to get everything back to normal. Anyone?

if you can get into download mode, you can use odin to fix everything.
you might have to do a complete wipe but it is what it is

I tried this already. My problem is that after I flash the first bootchain, the second bootchain will not flash. I gets stuck at the setup in odin. I see there is an option to disconnect the phone and exit odin and reconnect the phone without leaving download mode if this happens. My problem is that if I disconnect the phone from the computer or from the charger it shuts off automatically. I tried these steps the best that I could and when I click nand erase and it reboots, then all it does is buzz every few seconds. I then shut it off and do the data and cache wipe and reboot. It reboots and appears to be the stock rom asking me for language and activation after, but the phone shuts off almost immediately and reboots to a blank battery with a circle in the middle. This is after I have had the phone on the charger for a long time. This happened out of the blue after I was using navigation. This problem did not arise from changing something in the system or from flashing a rom or kernel or anything of the sort. No one has seen this issue with the blank battery? I saw someone mention in android forums but the resolution was that they returned it and got a refurb.

tab 2 stucks on charging screen

Hey guys, I just bought a Galaxy Tab 2 for my aunt, and when I was installing the official CM11 I received an error message. Without a system, it booted right on cwm, until the battery ends. I put it to charge 2h ago but I just see a screen with a battery and a loading icon in the center, even if it's not plugged

Leave it plugged in for four hours, then try booting into recovery but make SURE IT IS UNPLUGGED. Otherwise you can't access download mode or recovery.
I did and worked, but the funny I that official CM11 was not working yet, so I downloaded an unofficial CM12 here on xda, and it's qorking well ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Bricked/soft bricked SM-P905

Hello!
Around a month ago I installed a custom rom on my Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 (SM-P905), which ran smoothly until a week ago, when my tablet suddenly wouldn't leave the Samsung Galaxy Logo screen when booting. I was also unable to access recovery (I had TWRP installed), however I was able to access download mode. Then I decided to try to install the stock firmware using Odin. It seemed fine until it was about halfway through the installation, when it seemed to disconnect and the installation failed. After several attempts this still happened. I also tried installing both TWRP and CWM, both of which passed in Odin, however I am still unable to access recovery mode. I also tried installing the custom rom, with the same results as I mentioned earlier. In addition to this the screen has also begun flickering a whole lot, both when showing the Samsung logo and when in download mode, however it seems to intensify during the latter. This, in addition to the fact that I am unable to get any response when it isn't hooked up to my computer, has led me to believe that there is some issue with the battery as well, however I am absolutelly clueless at the moment.
I also have to mention that this is my first post here and my first attempt at installing a custom rom or doing anything of this nature to my devices. Any help would really be appreciated!

Your battery connector needs to be re soldered first before trying to flash firmware.
Read the threat " Flickering Screen " for more information. Cracked battery connector will cause flickering screen, reboot, hang on samsung logo at boot..etc...

Note 10.1 GT-N8000 Boot Loop and Can't access Recovery Mode. Please Help

Hey all,
I was hoping that someone here could please offer some advice that I'm having with my tablet. Using the Note 10.1 GT-N8000
So at the weekend I had an issue where the tablet just kept freezing on me, screen wouldn't time out, clock wouldn't update etc. So after several reboots I figured the only thing for it would be to wipe it and start again. So after getting to recovery mode I wipe the cache and then eventually did the full wipe thing. Booted up after that as expected like brand new so I did the whole reinstalling my apps and what not thinking everything was a-ok. So I came back to it a lil later and it's off (so i think the batts just died on me) plug it in and put it on charge and boot up and it won't get past the 'Galaxy Note 10.1' screen and just cycles in a constant loop. I tried to then go to recovery mode again and whilst the holding up and power gets me to the screen I would first see the android logo with the energy belly (no menu options appear) and it would instantly switch to an android logo on it's back with a red exclamation mark icon atop it, before returning to the boot loop. I've tried to get into Odin mode which i can successfully do.
I've looked at some threads here about similar issues but tbh with some terminology used I'm a bit unfamiliar with so was lost on them quite easy, my knowledge on these issues being rather basic.
If anyone could offer any assistance I would be most grateful
Thanks
Flash stock rom from sammobile viaOdin.
