[Q] Encryption Unsuccessful & Bootloop - GT-P3100 Tab2 7" - Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys! i have an issue here. can anyone help me solve this problem.

from few days i started getting this error, see image

I tried to flash stock firmware, i downloaded two firmware of INU region (India)
everytime i get the following error on odin,
(Above pic for reference only. im using odin v3.09 and latest)
I tried flashing with PIT files, it didnt work.
I tried flashing TWRP, CWM it flashes recovery but when i go to recovery then still philz is there.
I searched on many forums and Googled, and i came to know that my /data and /sdcard is corrupted. but i can access the content /sdcard from recovery and i can view my files.
I tried flashing other custom rom. It flashes them without any error but when i reboot my Tab its not flashed. its same.
What to do please help me.

Ok so after doing so mush research on this on xda, gsm-hosting, google, etc....
i came to a conclusion that the emmc is corrupted or right protected (Means It has become read only). which is why we are unable to flash through odin or through recovery. even if the flash is successful then after reboot the TAB returns to the earlier state i.e same rom, bootloop and recovery.
so there are three way you can fix it:
1. change motherboard, which is very costly. on ebay it was 13k (India). dont know about local shops or service center. but im sure it will be more or less same.
2. Change emmc. ask the repair guy to change the buggy emmc to a new one. buy the emmc from alibaba online store or other online stores if you cant find it offline.
3. You can get back the same tab to work by directly flashing the stock rom directly to emmc. This process involves soldering the pins of the tab and flashing directly on to the chip using a box called ATF (Advance turbo flasher). This process is little advance, one can do it if you know what pins to solder (You can get the idea from youtube & gsm hosting), but buying atf box would be costly. costlier than the emmc replacement. now if you want to experiment and learn you can go buy a atf and revive your dead tab (it will be called The walking dead. ).
:)
so i am replying to my own thread so that if any body is comes searching for the same gets to know what happened and what to do next.
BTW Android_Andi has done some great research on this he tried every possible thing but unfortunately it didnt work. Thanks to him for his time and effort.
and if anybody figures out how to fix it without using atf box please do post and let me know. because im keeping my dead tab with me and if someone knows any alternate way i can fix mine too. who knows anything can happen.

This is gonna sound real dumb I know but......has anyone tried entering no password? In other words, just hit Enter? Or maybe using the word "password" as the password?

No problem...!
This kind of things happen..I am not that expert but can advise on the basis of what i gained from xda website.
If you can go in recovery and download means not much serious thing.
FIRST TRY TO RESTORE YOUR SYSTEM FROM RECOVERY BY USING YOUR OLD BACKED UP .
if not then follow steps below:
1. I would recommend you to download fresh odin3V1.85
2. Download steady honeycomb version of your region from
3. From recovery clear delvic cache/factory reset/ and all stuff.
4. Enter download mode and do all the flashing once again. Make sure your power to usb post is ok. I have observed old laptops or pcs just disconnect for a second or so and again reconnect. If this happens while flashing then you come to this stage.
Hope it will solve your problem.
If not other experts are still out there on XDA developers website.......
Don;t panic.
Enjoy with XDA developer's website.

Hi niceashwin79,
thank you very much for your short tutorial.
!NICE! Ashwin
But I already sent it to Samsungsupport. ( BTW. Couldnt wipe anyway, it always stucked, also tried to flash serial roms)
It was returned yesterday, with 3.2 Open Austria and AUT (Swizz) CSC.
So I flashed 4.0.4 Open Austria and became XEO CSC.
But the return to ATO (Austria, the right CSC) was with CSC Selecter for SG1 SG2 and Note from the Market quite easy.
The third party Samsung support company exchanged the motherboard.
However my UMTS/3G-module is not working anymore. I didnt test it with the 3.2, but I guess, it didnt work, too.
The Tab does not recognize the SIM, no message, nothing.
Besides that I have a full nandroidbackup of 4.0.4 with AUT CSC BEFORE the brick.
(Loading this backup after changing CSC from AUT to ATO probably bricked my Tab.
I would be very pleased and thankfull if anywone is able to help me,
thanks in advance
EDIT: I have a small update for you.
If you go to the tab "security" you can deactivate/change the SIM's password. Both actions register my device in the network. Every reboot is the same, so the problem is not fixed yet but kind of sloved.
Still looking for a perfect solution,
greetings Lipi

Soft brick one sv

Hi everyone. Please bear with me I am a complete noob at this stuff.
I have a HTC one sv c525e K2_ul 4.2.2 S-on in Aus with optus (maybe LTE??)
The storage space for apps is tiny so I wanted to root the phone to re-compartment space.
I eventually found and followed the tutorial by qbking77 to unlock the phone and root it. I did well up until entering recovery to root the phone. The twrp image I used didn't work on my phone. I tried several of them with same result. Somewhere along the line I got the bootloop. I don't recall if it was before or after I tried to flash this I think I tried some other kernel that I can't find now.
Anyway I went back to twrp and tried more images. One finally worked to get into recovery. It was- twrp-2.8.6.0-k2_cl.img 10.4M the second listing under HTC One SV Boost USA (k2_cl).
So now I could enter recovery mode I went back to qbking77's tutorial. I found the options and process on my phone was different to his and I had a few errors come up like unable to mount sdcard, storage and some other stuff. As a result I was unable to do a back up and unable to install super user. From there I still got the bootloop.
Although internal sdcard and storage was unable to mount the phone did see the external sd card. So I loaded the super user zip direct from pc to sd card and opened the zip in recovery. Still bootloop.
I was wondering if I managed to unwittingly delete some important ****. So in my brilliance to persevere with screwing with it, I loaded the venom ROM (and some kernel) onto the ext sd card and opened it in recovery. Still several errors came up and I wasn't given any options to pick before flashing. It did say installation was a success at the end. Still got bootloop.
So I am hoping someone might see an obvious f-up that would turn into an easy fix ......... :laugh:
So I've been doing some reading :angel: but I'm no better off. I watched closely what I was doing and I was getting an MD5 error. I tried downloading the zips in firefox so as not to corrupt them but the phone is still coming up with 'missing MD5'.
I'm thinking my only option at this point is to run the RUU as I've seen that suggested a few times to others. Looks like a PITA but I guess it's that or new phone
I don't know when I'll get around to doing it.
Looking into RUU I need the S-off. Since I can't boot the system does anyone know how I can switch the S to off through fastboot or recovery?
So I was too lazy to run the RUU. I again attempted to flash the viper ROM. In recovery it says it was a success but I still get the bootloop. I noticed when I went into recovery something would flash up on the screen but it was too quick for me to read so I took a picture of it. Does anyone know what any of it means?

[Completed] softbricked galaxy s4

hey guys, i was trying to domestic unlock an sph-l720 galaxy s4. I followed a lot of different threads here and i felt like I was getting pretty close when i soft bricked my phone. My original modem was the L720VPUGOK3 (running lollipop 5.0.1), i used odin to flash the MDC modem. then (using odin) i rooted my phone. basically i got everything up until i started following this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2530610
which, i got up to step 12) where it tells you to add the lines
ril.sales_code=LOL
ro.csc.sales_code=LOL
then when i tried to reboot, it got to the galaxy s4 screen then went black. usually after that screen it goes to a samsung screen then a sprint screen. I can hook it up to my comp and Odin will recognize it, but no matter what i flash (i've tried re-flashing MDC and root) nothing works. i can also boot it into download mode and recovery mode, i tried doing a factory reset, but that didn't help either. i now no longer have CWM though and so when i go to recovery boot i see this :
android system recovery <3e>
LRX22C.L720VPOGOH1
With the options
reboot now
apply update from ADB
apply update from external storage
apply update from cache
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
reboot to bootloader
power down
view recovery logs
enable cp logging
disable cp logging
and i am now lost as to what to do...
update: ok so after about 5 hrs of googling, i have managed to pull my build.prop file. oddly enough i didn't see the two lines i supposedly wrote.
i used build.prop.editor app from google play but i supposed i didn't know what i was doing and didn't actually write them in the first place. so now i'm really lost, since i don't know what my problem is. i'm also having trouble finding a build.prop file to download for cross-reference. any suggestions would be great
update2: ok, after a few more hrs of searching every forum and post i could find, i managed to flash a whole new rom (using odin) onto my s4 with the thought that if i coud just get my phone to reboot, then i could go through the system update over wifi, problem now is that i'm can't turn on wifi. i can press the button but it just goes straight back to off. And since i can't use my sim, i have no way of updating it to my original rom from the phone (which i'm still only guessing is possible). i couldn't find my original rom, so i guess i'll just keep flashing new ones til i find one that works. any suggestions would be appreciated.

Nokia 3 stuck in Recovery after a 7.1.1

Hi!
Long time iOS jailbreaker finally moving to Android here.
Just got a spare Nokia 3, brand new.
Updated it from 7.0 to 7.1, than updated to 7.1.1.
Already its stuck in recovery mode due to what seems like a bug with the production line of Nokia? I've seen loose forums about this issue but all guides are either in Hindi or don't actually solve the issue. I just need to ask someone to help guide me through this, since I'm from iOS I'm not very aware about what flashing is, scatter file based flashing ect. I downloaded the base 7.0 from Needrombd.com, also downloaded SmartPhoneFlash Tool since that's meant to help.
I've connected the phone whilst its in fastboot mode, than put the scatter in and clicked download. Takes about 4-6 minutes than instantly hits 100% with a error (pic bellow)
Note: I cannot access the recovery page with the Android mascots chest open, only the screen posted in the reply below.
EDIT: Downloaded OST (Nokia's desktop flash editor), not much help as I can't seem to find the type of file its asking for. Seems like it could be a problem with a com port on the phone side seeing as I've mucked about with other cables/sockets.
Any help is so so appreciated right now :victory:

Haven't had a proper phone now for half a week and I'm a little anxious and I just want someone to help me out. Can't wait to finally get into Android!
Any help is so so appreciated right now :victory:

Whaat!!! Even with all my experience customising android phones, I haven't had the nerve to try flashing my nokia3 with flashtool. Does your phone still enter download mode? If so I recommend that you flash your phone with OST

Gome U7 Persistent Popup / Notification

Hi everyone,
I was wondering if anyone has any experience or any ideas to resolve this issue I am having with my new Gome U7.
While using the phone, I constantly get popups saying I should add Iris for security. And when I actually scan my Iris and have it saved in the system, I get a different popup saying Iris is already inputted (no picture of this, sorry).
I am trying to find a way to disable this. I searched through the system.img and couldn't find any apks or anything remotely named "iris".
I am attaching a screenshot of the log of what happens in the system during these popups.

Thanks in advance!
Update: I flashed phone back to stock Chinese ROM (GomeOS 2.0) and I get the popups even there. I also tried flashing into the ROM that comes with the phone and the problem still persists.
Is there a possibility that I am not flashing/erasing all of the data on the phone and there is something that still persists? I am using SPtools and when I input the scatter file, I make sure all the files are checked. I then flash TWRP boot.img and recovery.img successfully (and root the phone), but again, same popup comes up in android.
Can you disable the iris scan option after you input it? From this vid it looks like you can.
