Hello, I am new here and I am trying to root my galaxy tab (SGH-I497 wifi 16GB) for the first time. So don't be mad at noobish questions
I used this for rooting. But now my phone just won't boot. I see a Samsung logo briefly, after which screen turns dark.
Luckily however, I am able to go into both Download Mode and Recovery Mode. I tried hard reset from recovery mode as well to no avail.
Can someone please tell me if the tab is dead or is there some way I can bring it back to booting again?

Hi All,
I recently just got given a samsung galaxy S as a present and followed a guide to flash Darky's rom.
All was going well, possibly missed a step and basically now my phone won't load up. It gets stuck at the samsung galaxy s screen and randomly vibrates.
Cannot get into download mode or recovery, the only screen i can get is the 'Forced Upload by Key Pressing' menu.
When plugged in, odin will say 'added' when in this forced upload mode.
Any help/instructions/ideas would be great.
Thanks.
Hello,
I'm new to the community. I generally work on PC but a friend brought me this Samsung Galaxy tab 7.0 Plus that turns on but is stuck at the "Samsung Galaxy tab 7.0 Plus" splash screen when it first turns on. I have tried the" Power+Vol up" to reset to factory but it seems to go too-quickly and then I am back to square one because nothing changed. I dont know if my friend or his kids tried to do anything crazy with this so I don't have much more info.
What I am asking... I want to get this tab back to factory, or at least a working ROM. any advice is helpful but please keep in mind I have never really worked on these devices, the one thing I do know is if I jump to conclusions I can brick the device.
Thanks in advance. If more info is needed please ask.
did you try with a retore power + vol down with Odin

There is my solution
I had a very similar problem to both of you and noticed that the /data (instead of /efs) directory/partition "didn't exist" according to the boot screen when i entered the default recovery mode. i partitioned it and ran a factory reset and it finally booted.
and all just in time to pull the factory US ICS update
Hi,
I installed CEBERUS V5 ROM in my Galaxy Ace without any problem, it works perfectly, when installing it on my brother's phone, it did everything OK until the last reboot in ClockWorkRecovery, the phone restarted as spected but it got stuck with the Samsung Galaxy Ace logo, it doesn't do anything else. I can't access recovery or download mode, it shows exactly the same samsung screen when doing the key combinations for each case.
When I plug it to power it doesn't show the battery image, it automatically turns on and shows samsung logo again. If I plug it to my PC it's the same and the PC doesn't recognize any plugged device. I took the battery and tried again thousand of times, and nothing seems to get that screen out.
Is there anyway I can solve this?
In case there's no chance to fix it, I have a warranty for the phone, is there anyway my provider can notice I tried to install a custom ROM?
Anyway I would prefer fixing it myself, please can you give me some advice?
Thanks a lot!
Hey People,
I need your help to see if my phone is recoverable which tbh I think its a lost cause. Whenever I boot it the Samsung Galaxy S6 logo pops up but the boot animation doesnt happen. I have managed to get it into Download Mode and Recovery mode, I have tried to push the Default Firmware onto the phone - FAIL. I have tried to factory restore the phone - FAIL. Nothing seems to work so if anyone has any solutions then end them my way.

My Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 GT-N8013 got soft bricked and now not able to boot (Samsung Logo stays on screen and then just goes off), Cannot boot into recovery (twrp) either (TWRP logo shows and then just boots again). But can boot into download mode.
Tried stuff with ODIN mode but nothing helped to switch on into OS(custom Rom).
Pls help.
What exactly is STUFF ??
Where does Odin fail ??
Multiple posts on bricked phones .
Same problem. GT-N8013 won't boot, got to ODIN mode "downloading" but nothing happens and I know that the tablet cannot connect to current wifi since it has changed since this tablet was last used. I don't know where to go from here or what to do
Difficult to understand your post .
Download Mode then you flash stock rom via Odin .
