I think I can use a little help.
I tried to update my SGS from I9000XXJF3 to I9000XXJF7.
I followed the steps with Odin etc etc....bu now my device does not reboot anymore! It only shows a white screen with blue letters "AT&T WORLD PHONE".
I can not get the device in download mode or recovery mode anymore. When I'm pushing volume down + home + on/off button, it shows the same white screen.
What can I do now? I hope I didn't brick the device....
Can't even get into the menus to flash? Wow.. I don't think you can fix that.
Nope... this sucks big time! Pff I cant stand it anymore...i go to take a sleep now. Tomorrow i try again, but i dont feel like it is going to work!
I tried everything, volume up + home + on/off button = White screen
volume down + home + on/off button = White screen..

AT&T...
Mate, did you flash Captivate with I9000 firmware? They are, kind of, like 2 different phones...
You can use I9000 firmware, but only if you use standard modem file (that from what I briefly read, I can be completely wrong).

Did you remove the battery and force a fresh boot into download mode?
And yeah. Are you sure you don't have a captivate and not a SGS i9000?
Remove the battery which might force a reset of the device.
Once you put the battery back in see if you can get into Download Mode again then go through the reflash firmware again. Make sure your using the correct files.

Beat me to it.
I have the same problem, I tried to get the phone into download or recovery mode, but no success, it switches between AT&T white screen and black screen all the time...I'm trying since last night, this is frustrating...
Yes, exactly the same problem with my i9000. When I try to enter in donwnload mode I have a white screen with a blue text "AT&T world phone" and it is blincking.
Can't enter in download mode, can't flash new ROM witk Kies......I can do nothing...
Can anyone help me please? There is any chance to recover my phone back?
Thank you very much.
My e-mail is "[email protected]"
Yes, after hours and hours of studing the problem I can confirm:
By mistake, I was using Odin for Captivate , on trying to bring back to life my i9000.
Now, what can I do? There is any chance to get the phone in to the download mode?
Thank you very much for your time and patience...
OK you used the wrong ODIN version... but I thought ODIN doesn't touch the bootloader? So if this is also correct for the captivate version of ODIN, I think there is still hope.
Maybe you can find something useful in the captivate forum.

Download the correct ODIN, PIT and Firmware. Set them up on your computer.
Remove the battery, SIM and SDCard from your phone. Wait a few seconds.
Re-insert your Battery only.
Put the phone into Download Mode - volume down + home + on/off button
You might need to try this a few times I don't always get it first time.
Connect the phone to your computer by USB and confirm ODIN see's it.
Then flash the firmware again.
Wait for reboot then switch off and re-insert your SIM, SDCard.
Should be right now. Fingers crossed for you.

yes i did, but the problem is that where i live there is no AT&T which their logo is flashing onto my phone screen.
they might shoot me in the head.
I made this short video to show the problem
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g8AIvalzBvY
Yes, this is our problem.
Our mistake is that we don't look for correct Odin3 flash tool, and we used Odin3 for Captivate.
I have try in Captivate topic maybe find something usefull, but nothing. They us a light different method to get in download mode, but it doesn't work on my phone.
Always I get the same white screen.
I really don't know if the battery is charging in this white screen.

I know I didn't brick my phone because I can still get into bootloader. I've tried to connect to Odin (several times following instructions to remove battery, restart pc, etc) and Odin won't recognize phone in bootloader. I was trying to update to gingerbread 2.3.5 using Odin and it got stuck. it said 'writing, wait 2 minutes' and I waited 8 mins and it never did anything. was I just inpatient? Now when I try to restart my phone it tells me manual files were installed and to hit the OK button. I have no OK button and I've tried all the screen buttons and the 3 hardware buttons to select 'reboot' as instructed per the phone and none work. So I pull the battery and start the vicious cycle all over again. I've been searching and searching (for the past 2hrs) trying to solve this on my own and I'm stuck. I need this phone as it's my work phone and I just got it Friday! (owned by me, not my company thankfully!) please help. thank you.

I could previously connect to Odin so I wouldn't think it was the drivers or the cable. I hope I didn't really brick it! I can't afford a new one! booo

Pulling the cable on a Odin flash is the quickest way to ruin your phone. Should have left it plugged in and looked around real quick for an answer.

The only thing I can think of as I have never seen this B4. try holding power down,it takes awhile but it should reboot. I will try to get ahold of more info for you. No promises though. But rule of thumb Be patient.
One last thing where did you get the update from? ie 2.3.5. It helps to know what you were trying to flash.

Of the responses so far, I'd start with a new microUSB cable. Whether the current cable worked 30 seconds ago or not, that could certainly be a potential issue, might as well rule it out.
After that, a few things to consider:
1) Can you get into recovery? [Hold Vol. Up] + [Power] for as long as it takes to get to the recovery screen (anywhere from 15 seconds to two minutes of solid holding.) If you can get to recovery, you are going to be in business. If after 120 seconds it hasn't gone into recovery, move on.
2) In your post, you refer to "bootloader", technically correct, but want to make sure you are referring to Odin download mode. The whole "instructions to remove battery, restart pc, etc" throws me off, you shouldn't have to do any of that. Just to make sure, what you want to do is:
Start up Odin 1.85 on your PC
Power down phone
Wait for capacitative button lights to turn off
Simultaneously Press and Hold [Power] + [Vol. Dn] until confirmation screen appears
Press [Vol. Up] to enter Download mode
Connect USB cable to the phone and then to the PC
ODIN should show COM port in first slot
3) If you can successfully get into ODM and the COM port in the first slot lights up, you are golden. Follow the rest of the steps here and you are all set to move forward or hang out from that point.
4) "I was trying to update to gingerbread 2.3.5 using Odin and it got stuck. it said 'writing, wait 2 minutes' and I waited 8 mins" I'm thinking maybe you flashed with Bootloader, Phone or CSC selected rather than PDA in the Odin menu. If that is the case you should still be able to get into ODM as shown above.

yes, that is where it tells me media files have been installed and to press OK to reboot the phone (and other options to wipe data, cache, etc). It is not CWM recovery.

yes. I followed these instructions -
Check only Re partition, Auto reboot & F. Reset time in option
Put the files like this in Odin:

PDA = CODE_I9100XXKI3_CL577579_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5,

"GT-I9100-CSC-MULTI-OXAKI3.tar.md5"? Aren't you on the E4GT? So flashing all of these files for an international SGSII would be the first issue. What forum did you get these from?
This might be a big issue afterall. Get back to me on where you got the files and I'll see if I can come up with something in the meantime.
EDIT: One thing that will work for sure, but you'd have to wait for it to come in is a $2 jig. Once you get it, you'll back in business in less than 2 seconds. Mine took 5 days via standard shipping. You could do expedited shipping if you need it faster. In lieu of that, I will keep thinking about what you can do tonight.
EDIT 2: I know you said that you have driver's installed an all, but if you downloaded them where you got those files, they might not be what you need for this phone. You might try going to the E4GT Auto Root thread and get everything you need to start fresh from there.
Then/or try this again:
Disconnect phone, and remove battery (wait 30 -60 seconds or so).
Re-insert the battery and power the phone as I noted before by simultaneously pressing and holding [Power] + [Vol. Dn] until confirmation screen appears
Press [Vol. Up] to enter Download mode
Make sure NPS and KIES are NOT running IMPORTANT
Start up Odin v1.85
Keep trying to connect the phone to get a COM port lit. If it's not working, try changing USB ports. Try every port on your PC.
Keep trying, I've seen odin fail to recognize phones over and over and then
suddenly recognize it out of nowhere.

Yes, the jig should definitely work and it is a good idea to have one around anyway, just in case you ever need to go back to stock to return the phone or something.
But I am certain you can fix it at home in the meantime. I just need to remember or find how.

Yeah, definitely not the right files for our phone, but don't worry, yet, I think you can recover from this. The fear is that the radio is borked as those are GSM phones and we are a CDMA phone. I haven't really read much about this issue, but I know it has happened to others. If you have time, you might search around for something like "oops, flashed SGSII GSM files on my E4GT CDMA phone" or something like that and see if anyone else figured out the fix.
I did not think there was a update to 2.3.5 for the epic 4g touch. I thought only the European versions received that update. The only update I know of for our phones was 2.3.6.
Plz link or direct where you downloaded this update you flashed. If it is the European update you will need to install the drivers for that model for Odin to recognize your phone. Then reflash the proper update.

It should not kill your radio. I fixed a buddys phone that kinda did the same thing. Main thing is get the drivers for the euro sgs 2. Then Odin should see your device. Then use just s's guide from there.
One last thing the jig is not be needed. You can already get into download mode. Your phone is ready for flashing. What you need are drivers for the the computer to recognize your phone.

Yep, this is exactly right.
@nursemm05 you need to find and install the drivers for the phone who's files you flashed. Make sure you know where you save the driver files and where they are installed. In fact, make a backup of your system so that you can restore your PC after you get your ET4G back to good.
Once you can get back into Odin, flash the tar file (singular) that I linked to and you will be back at stock. Then you can hit the other links and you will be very happy with your new setup.
Then do a system restore on your PC to before the i9000 driver's were installed and you should be back to good there as well.
Good luck!
I saw a couple people had the same issue that im now having but none of there solutions solved my problem
i wiped my GS3 for ATT tried to go back to a stock with root rom and when it rebooted it now just hangs at the samsung logo at boot tried re-flashing via odin with no luck also tried flashing a CWM.tar since i cant get into stock or CWM recovery to flash from there is there something im missing i know its late and maybe my brain isnt working like it should
Solved the problem myself.....and rather then just say i figured it out ill share how i did this since i watched countless videos and read endless amounts of threads and since none of them helped mem
First also try t put your phone into stock recovery mode and wipe your phone then flash this should take care of things if it doesnt try what i tried below
and i hope this can help someone else out there who has the same problem that i had all you have to do is the following i did this with obviously an AT&T model should work with others but as always try at your own risk.....
First make sure your battery has a charge even if its stuck on the boot screen its still charging....
then download KIES from samsung update it and make sure you have the latest version.
Next plug in your phone if your stuck at the samsung screen your computer will recognize your phone still at least it did with mine.
Once your done with the above open up KIES goto the top and then TOOLS and Firmware upgrade click on that enter your phone model (ATT SGH-I747) i dont get this part but next it will ask you for your SN and for some reason it doesnt recognize the SN use your IMEI
Now it should ask you a couple questions tell you its wiping your device and you will lose everything etc.....but then it will download the latest FW and begin to install everything and in about 20-25 mins everything will be back to stock
Nvm.. misread.
I'm stuck too...and Kies can't find the phone. Anyone have any other ideas? I can't even get into recovery...only download mode.

Okay, this brought the menu up for me, but I removed the data,cache, and reset the phone and it is still not working. Also, my phone just goes black after the Galaxy Samsung S3 logo, but the blue light in the top left is still on. Can anyone help me out?
P.S. Sorry for reviving this thread if it is too old.
Edit: I should also mention that I can still hear the sound of the phone booting up (the sound that typically occurs when the phone is on the white loading screen). However, the screen is black at this point.

Ah, sorry about not providing enough information. Please keep in mind that I am very inexperienced and I may get some things incorrect just due to that. To my understanding, I went to try and root my phone, but beforehand I used the guides below to get my phone ready for the root (yes I do realize at this point that using these outdated guides was a clear mistake and I should have come to XDA instead). I flashed my phone to the stock kernel using the file that site provided, and then encountered the problem above. In my panic I have tried to restore the phone through several methods, but every time I try to load anything onto it with Odin, it doesn't complete until my phone restarts (and my phone won't boot up completely) so I can't get the pass message. Interestingly enough I did manage to get clockwork mod installed as that is what shows up when I try a secure boot using the methods that you described.
Ah, I am unfortunately not allowed to post links. The guides were off of Android Authority.
If there is any other information needed to help me please let me know and I will do my best to obtain it.

In my panic I have tried to restore the phone through several methods, but every time I try to load anything onto it with Odin, it doesn't complete until my phone restarts (and my phone won't boot up completely) so I can't get the pass message. Interestingly enough I did manage to get clockwork mod installed as that is what shows up when I try a secure boot using the methods that you described.
Ah, I am unfortunately not allowed to post links. The guides were off of Android Authority.
If there is any other information needed to help me please let me know and I will do my best to obtain it.

Sounds like you need to clear your cache partition and clear your dalvik cache. There are several guides on this site to help you. Choose the one that is most appropriate to what you are trying to do and follow it EXACTLY. There is one to start. Follow it from the beginning.

When nothing else works start over from search. You cab use download mode? First make sure you got right drivers as that can mess up Odin. Use one in my Sig if you want. Then flag stock recovery with root someone nice will part a link to it I'm on my phone can't do it. Well fix your phone

Okay now I am running into another problem. I have tried downloading the drivers from many different places and they always seem to be correctly downloaded. That being said, I can't install the drivers after I plug my phone into the computer (after downloading and installing Samsung USB drivers). Therefore, I cannot access my phone storage to put the root zip file on it. I was still able to download the custom recovery.
Now I have gone to a different computer, and the drivers seem to install correctly, but the phone still does not appear under my computer.
Edit: I do already have a root zip file on my phone from my earlier attempt, but I install it and my phone still doesn't load up. Also, Odin still recognizes the phone.
Edit 2: Windows says that the drivers cannot recognize the device. Edit 3: "Hardware ID Missing"
Bump
Sorry, I really need help for this. I can't install the MTP drivers even through using some of the tips on this site. That seems to be the problem with me accessing the phones storage from my computer. Does anyone have an ideas for what else I could do? Should I just take it to the store and hope they can fix it?

go to your device manager on your computer, locate samsung drivers for your device, uninstall them
restart your computer
then plug in the phone and lets it reinstall by itself
Use my drivers in my signature
They are last good damaging drivers. Don't update them but install them and plug phone in with no internet. after install plug internet in. There good stable drivers

Ok so my 3 yo. son likes to play games on my GNex. I have not rooted or made ANY modifications whatsoever. He was in the middle of playing a game when it randomly reboots. He hands it to me on the google screen. It never boots. just sits. I have been from forum to forum. If i hold:
pwr + - volume i get the odin mode download screen. I have tried loading stock images through odin but it always gets to CDMA-Radio the very last step and hangs there forever (15+min.) battery pull.
pwr + + volume I get a black screen with a lock at the bottom. ( i have read that this means i have unlocked the bootloader but I have not, on purpose at least) battery pull
pwr + both volume i get a black screen. It kinda looks like the screen is on but just completely black. no fastboot mode. Battery pull.
the stock images i have found either do not work in odin or have broken links.
i am not sure if usb debugging is on like i said i usually dont mod phones. adb wont recognize. I just want a stock GNex back. Any tips tricks files or suggestions will be greatly appreciated and I have no problem donating to the cause
Also if i plug my phone into my pc and dont touch anything the battery symbol with the lightning bolt comes up. cant get rid of it unless battery pull. HELP!!
How long have you waited for it to boot. I've had some waits of 3-5 minutes before it gets past the Google screen. Im running stock 4.1.1
Although pulling the battery while the radio was installing in Odin mode might have made it worse. You might need to download the stock image from googles servers

over 30 min at times. i have read about these stock images but when i look for them i get broken links or something for fastboot and adb.
First off, if you see a padlock on the google splash screen, the bootloader is unlocked. Did you buy this phone used? Has it always been there? Is it possible he was playing for hours and the phone overheated? No fastboot mode is not good. You'll need to use odin to at least repair the bootloader, if not also to flash an odin flashable factory image. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1626895 may help to teach you some of the basics, as you'll want to adb pull your data if you need it. Otherwise, warranty claim?

YES! this is your best choice, I do this ALL the time when I screw something up! Flash FH05 here are my instructions:
Sprint Galaxy Nexus Return To Stock Via ODIN:
1. Put "TAR" on the "PDA" Odin Section.
2. Make Sure To uncheck "F. Reset"... only have "Auto Reboot" and "PDA" checked.
3. Power Of the Galaxy Nexus.
4. Go into "Download Mode" press and hold the "Volume Down" and "Power" button at the same time for a couple of seconds.
5. START Android (Odin Mode) Appears...plug in the micro USB and let drivers install if necessary
6. Yellow CoM should appear if ready... Press start, it should take a while but the phone will go back to 4.1.1 Jelly Bean.
Bootloop Stuck (skip if it dosen't happens after Odin):
7. Pull The Battery and re insert it, press and hold all three buttons at the same time, Volume up, down and Power.
8. Then press volume down twice untill it says "Recovery Mode" then press The Power button to select it.
9. Phone will restart and "!" Android will appear... press and hold power and volume up then let go of volume up
10. Then "Wipe Data Factory Reset" and then "reboot system"
If you can reach Odin and your PC recognices the phone in it YOU ARE SAFE, not everything is lost!

I dont think so, it is just due to the fact that the phone is not physically "on" so it wont detect it as a Nexus, if odin pops up yellow then it should be fine... If the image is not flashing through under Odin it could be due to the locked bootloader. If u didint have any MODs on it, unlocking the bootloader is a process of runing a program to unlock it i dont think it was properly done after the image ftlash... U are always safer rooting and unlocking the bootloader so at least u can make backups but anyways... Try Power and Vol. Up again... is it still a blank screen or what do u see?

If you are stuck in a bootloop after running the recovery file in odin (it's 1.6 GB unzipped), which is the way things sound, pull the battery and go into stock recovery. Do this by replacing the battery, holding volume up, home, and power button until the ble recovery shows in the upper left then let go. In stock recovery, scroll down 9using volume button) to wipe data/factory reset. Coose that option with the power button. You will lose ALL data on your phone and you will have to go thru setup again. When it's done choose reboot in the menu and let it reboot. Don't freak if it takes a while. In a minute or 2 you will see the screen dim and it will boot. Go thru setup, root again, install custom recovery, and if you were wise enough to have done a backup tp your SD card, you can get it back.
Good luck, there are tutorials on Youtube if you care to search for them. Here's a good one -

Good suggestion :good:
I think the issue is that he's making things more complicated than he needs to.
A step by step by the op would be helpful if your suggestion doesn't resolve the issue
---------- Post added at 01:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:39 AM ----------
Op, you're a little confusing.
Are you able to successfully use ODIN and flash stock firmware, but get stuck in a boot loop or freeze on Samsung splash?
Or ODIN fails?
From you're posts it sounds like both issues are occurring, but I think it's a posting conflict, and your issue is one or the other, unless I'm wrong, which I've been before
when i try recovery it goes to boot saying loading recovery than it goes full off and after boot screen again...i tried twrp and still nothing but the good thing is that odin passed that ..the only thing it didnt fail....maybe i didnt have the right rom ...i am downloading the official i9505 rom and i hope it will work this time....but plz if any1 can help i would apriciate it
Odin problem
I am also having a odin problem. I have tried jdownloader2 as well. Everything is giving me an error on extraction. My phone is stuck on the pulsing T-Mobile 4G LTE. Please help...my wife is looking at me like I just wasted money on a useless brick :silly:
Make sure you guys ODIN the correct Stock Firmware for your model device.
Make sure you ODIN the correct Custom Recovery for your model device.
And if you're Rooting, for example with CF-AUTO-ROOT by Chain fire, make sure you ODIN the proper version for your device.
In addition, check your USB cable to ensure it's working properly 100% of the time and have enough battery juice to perform the above procedures.
Odin problem
I have double check all the stock firmware. Got the files from 247extreme.com, given to me by DarkMenace. Several downloads of the same files...nothing seems to pass the MD5 check. The USB cable is 100%.

Hello, just picked up a used tab s t705w bell in good shape. Ive tried to flash the original 5.02 as well as autroot and another original image as well. All of them fail. Im using the latest version of Odin. The connection says its ok as per com port than when it gets to boot.img it stops and fails. Ive tried 2 USB cables as well as all my USB ports to no avail. Please help as to what I'm doing wrong, thanks.
Heres a pic
Update: tried with laptop still same thing, is there anybody that can offer a suggestion? I even unplugged the battery and plugged back in. I also tried several older versions of Odin.
Well since nobody knows what to do my research indicates possibly nand chip has failed meaning hardware issue. Gonna look at returning it.

Hi,
Did you end up fixing the issue? I think I have the same issue as yours on a SM T800. It came with 4.4.2 so when I tried to update to Marshmellow it failed and it restarted fine, and it told me to update via my pc using Kies or smarth switch. So I did so and guess what happened Smart Switch failed as well but now it bricked the tablet. So when Smart switch tries to install the recovery, same thing. So I now have a brick! So I am trying to find out if there was a solution or not. If not I will just have to wear it.
Thanks.

You're saying you can't get it back into the Odin download mode?
Hold HOME+ VOLUME UP+VOLUME DOWN+POWER. (Keep holding)
When the Samsung splash screen comes up, let go of the VOLUME UP button.
When the Odin warning screen comes up, let go of all buttons and click VOLUME UP.
Even when I was sure mine was soft-bricked, I was able to get it into Odin download.

In my limited experience with Odin, I find it to be a very stable, robust, and reliable application. Having said that, and not knowing what version you're using, the usual suggestions are:
Try another (older) version of Odin.
Try another USB cable.
Always use a USB 2 port.
Try a different firmware package making *certain* it's for your model tab. (<- This is what's most suspect - IMHO.)
As long as you can still invoke the Odin downloader on your tab, there's still hope.
Good morning, Sir
News update, detailed search carried out, found the latest specific Samsung Firmware, (XEH-T805XXU1CPL1-20170111202424 with MM.)
The procedure with Odin has been successfully completed. (end of good news) At the end of the operation the tablet remains with the logo samsung bright intermittently . performed hard reset but remains stuck on the initial logo samsung always bright intermittently.
Suggestions?

PM SENT.
Yup. Been there. Done exactly that. I fixed it by subscribing to SamMobile, then paying for and downloading the OEM firmware. That's probably the best news, You can always get back to a box-stock condition. If you have the patience, you can download the firmware for free.
EDIT: Once I got back to stock, I looked for and found:
DAMMIT! I keep forgetting we have two different tabs. Obviously Klimtwifi is wrong for you.
lineage-14.1-20200321-UNOFFICIAL-klimtwifi, installed it with Odin3_v3.11.2 (Not sure it matters.)
Then rooted it using Odin: https://android.gadgethacks.com/how-to/android-basics-root-with-cf-auto-root-0167401/
And, once rooted, installed the Official TWRP app from Google Play. I always use the next older version of TWRP (twrp-3.3.0-0-klimtwifi) because TWRP doesn't like me much.
Then, rebooted into recovery and flashed GApps (open_gapps-arm-9.0-nano-20200417)
FWIW - This is from feeble memory, and I still have all the files - both those that worked and those that didn't - all in the same folder. So if something doesn't work for you, I've got what worked for me.
All said, getting LineageOS on this thing was far, far simpler that trying to get it back to stock.

IS A build guide available ??
The Samsung Galaxy Tab S 10.5 LTE is no longer maintained.
I just thought I’d switch to android 4.4 ....
The problem comes from the loss of boot files?

This should get you where you want to be: http://www.lineageosdownloads.com/download-galaxy-tab-s-10-5-lte-lineage-os/
I'm not sure what caused the problem in the first place. I was just very relieved to see it boot when i got the stock ROM back on it.
Did you restore yours back to stock? It's good practice.

Good morning,
The tablet is Hungarian (made search via samsung and s n), I install unique files (extension .md5).
installed the version K.K. 4 , the only novelty the presence during the first restart of the colored logo, performed manual restart and hard reset /wipe ,
At the end it remains with the Samsung logo bright intermittently (Samsung logo power etc.etc.). Found the multifile firwarware.
Odin does not recognize extension . enc4 and (oddly ) I find nothing to extract Files...

Did you find your model number on the SamMobile website? That's really where you need to start. Once you have the correct OEM firmware, using Odin to install it is a no-brainer. You need to get back to stock before you can move on to custom.
What is your complete model number?
Send me a private message. I think I may be confused and am causing you extra confusion.

Good morning,
Downloaded and installed the latest version SM-T805_t805xxu1cpl1_marshmallow(Android 6.0.1)_Xeh_factory Rom (4 File)_20170111.zip.enc4. (decrypted with an earlier version of samfirm (3.9 ).
the installation procedure of the 4 files, AP, BL, CP, CSC, does not involve problems.
Unfortunately at the end of the procedure the Tablet does not restart automatically, and after its hard wipe reset remains locked on the initial logo samsung always bright intermittently.
During the tests I noticed that holding down the power button tries to start. The second samsung logo stands out completely but does not pass the stage.
The feeling he can’t make it.
A new PIT file?

Good morning, first of all
I want to thank you for your patience and time.
Performed yet another installation test with Odin this time with Android 5 (XEH-T805XXU1BOJ1-20151111094815) similar result, you have precedents.
But with a novelty
.At the end of the installation, the tablet remains off, as in the pretending tests, I try to start it normally but nothing, in addition to the ever-present Logo (Samsung Galaxy tab S) flashing intermittently.
I press the power button for several seconds with the result of making the second samsung logo appear (colored) with an Android loading start, release the button, the device turns off.
By re-activating the flashing logo (Samsung Galaxy tab S) normally.
Holding down the power button starts
Android update - optimization of the accompanying application (192 tot), a few minutes later always with the power pressed, the process ends and the installation of applications begins, after a few seconds, the first APP starts., the tablet turns off.
By turning it on again and the intermittent luminous logo (Samsung Galaxy tab S) reappears.
Repeating the procedure (power button pressed continuously) you get colored samsung logo and the writing (alkalmazàsok telepitèese) installation of applications and turns off.
I perform a wipe data / factory reset obtaining:
--wiping data—
Formatting / data ...
Formatting / cache ...
Formatting / sbfs ....
E: unknow volume for path [/ sbfs]
E: unknow volume "/ sbfs"
Complete data wipes.
I run reboot system now.
The tablet turns on with the intermittently lit Logo (Samsung Galaxy tab S).
By repeating the whole procedure previously described, no changes are obtained.

Neither Google nor I understand that phrase. Do you?
Irrespective of that, I'm at my wit's end. And, assuming you're following the published directions, you may be looking at a hardware failure.
Just to confirm, before all this started for you, this was a working tablet?

good morning,
the tablet was working, during a game session started to reboot, always and only with the logo (Samsung Galaxy tab S) bright intermittently, performed hard reset, I did not fix anything. The only news, these days, after Odin, is the complete installation of android 5 with the power key pressed all the time.releasing the tablet key turns off . At the next power on I get the logo (Samsung Galaxy tab S) bright intermittently.
thank you for your patience and professionalism

This is the screen you see *before* you invoke Odin and connect the tab to your PC?
