[Q] Help! stuck at splash screen!

Hello, I recently acquired a note 2 n7100 and I have been trying to restore it. However, every time I try using odin, it gives me the that I the frimware upgrade encountered an issue error. I used the pit, but now it goes to the splash screen but nothing after that... Just a black screen. What should I do? I have been at this for hours and I am losing my mind!

Anyone have a solution? I am dying here!
EDIT: I got to the screen with the android on it and the little spinning ball in him, but then it just keeps booting to the android figure with the spinning globe. Any ideas?

You ll need to be more specific with your problem. Did you aquire the phone in working state? What were you trying to do. What did you do to achieve that? What was the results. What did you do to compansate that ? Etc....

Try rebooting recovery (vol up+home+power)
wipe cache and data
if not works, input full details with complete odin log
and which ROM and pit file you have used

Hello doc! I used the n7100 16gb pit you made and I am using the united arab stock rom, that is the only one that allows me to get to the android screen instead of a black screen. I tried the recovery button combo but that did not let me get into recovery.
I can update with my odin log when I get home. It all passes, nothing fails... So I guess I really dont know what is wrong with it.

Ok, try flashing stock recovery (get from here )
if you can flash it correctly then try rebooting in recovery and wipe cache and data.
otherwise post log of odin

Ok, I tried flashing the recovery but that didn't work. I tried flashing the stock rom via odin again and it came up with the connect to kies error until I put the 16gn pit in and now it is back to the android figure with the spinning orb... Enclosed is the log, any other ideas? I am at a loss for words here.

[Q] Official upgrade with FOTA failed - Odin3 FAIL as well

Hi,
I have GT-N7100 with official ROM. Few months ago I received an invitation to upgrade my ROM from 4.1 to 4.3
I have accepted the invitation and the upgrade was smooth and all was OK.
3 weeks ago I received another notification to update the ROM. It was also 4.3 and in the description it was mentioned as better stability.
I have accepted the invitation.
This time I started to get problems. The phone after reset got stuck on the first screen with the model name of "SAMSUNG GT-N7100".
I have HOME+POWER+VoluneUP and selected to clear all data to factory reset. - I still got the same stuck failure.
I tried to download various of official ROMs from sammobile (Hong Kong, UK, Israel, UAE) and install them with Odin3 but I got the same FAIL error in all of them.
Here is the log:

On my phone I see the following text:

CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: No
CURRENT BINARY: Samsung Official
SYSTEM STATUS: Official
KNOX WARRANTY VIOD: 0

I don't know what else to do?
Can you advise?

Maybe your USB Debugging isn't enabled. Try flashing a custom rom if you have twrp or philz recovery installed.

I am noob.
Can you explain me step by step what should I do?
I don't think that my "USB Debugging is enabled" cause I don't know how to enable it.
I don't have any access to HOME+POWER+VolumUP anymore.

I have once undergone through the same issue. If odin got succeded it can't say "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue". You must be able to access the recovery if odin got succeded.

Now i have a "Black Screen of Death".
The ROM: VD2-T805XXU1BOCC-20150403134302.zip
Odin: 3.10.6
Hardware: Samsung Galaxy Tab S LTE 16GB (SM-T805) from Vodafone D2 Germany
Flashing with TWRP also failed. Is it possible, that i use the wrong image?
Edit: Now it works, but the way was very terrible. Odin flashing till error. Following this i have flash the Recovery TWRP. Now the Tablet has booted, but i disbelieve it works fine.
Can someone help me to install the offiicial Rom correctly?
Thanks a lot and have a nice day!

Does your SM-T805 have a letter after the model? Like C, M, W or Y?
If not, then when I search www.sammobile.com for your firmware, this is the download file name I find that you should be using. I am not sure what the file name will be after extracting the zip though. Would take five hours of downloading for me to find out.
But if you compare this name to the file you originally downloaded and it is the same, then I think you are flashing the correct firmware.
T805XXU1BOCC_T805VFG1BOC4_VD2.zip

Ignore the error then boot into recovery and wipe cache.
Job done.

Thanks for help.
The device comes without an extension like C , M, W or Y and the ROM is from sammobile. So i think the ROM is correct.
But the problem is after flashing and getting the error, i don't have any access to recovery and for wipe the cache -> POWER + VOLUME UP + HOME goes directly into "Back Screen of Death".
So i must install TWRP before.
But my target is to the device bringing back into factory state.
At the moment it works fine.
Thank you for help.
best regards from germany

It won't boot if you don't have a valid recovery installed. Flashing stock firmware always installs stock recovery.
So either reflash stock firmware, flash stock recovery or flash twrp.
However I can quite clearly see from your first post that recovery has flashed fine, so it seems the problem is you are not using the right timing and button combo to enter recovery mode.
Many people have encountered the hidden.img fail when flashing a different region firmware as its csc specific.
All you need do to solve it is enter recovery mode and wipe cache.

GT-7100 stuck on samsung logo

Hi,
I woke up this morning and found my phone stuck on the startup logo.
I tried removing the battery and wipe the cache but it won't go past the start up logo.
I don't care about the phone, I wanted to change it anyway but I would like to retrieve some data before. So I haven't try the factory reset yet. Is there a way to save some data ? (my contacts and some data from note everything and task list mainly).
I afraid to try something and wipe all my data.....
Note : when I go to recovery, It says "failed to mount /efs (no such file or directory)... failed to mount /system ......"

Flash TWRP using Odin. Then boot into TWRP, mount the data partition, connect the phone to a computer, and copy off the data files. Hopefully, this method works for the phone.

You mean I have to install TWRP (? Team win recovery project) on my phone using Odin ? Is that correct and then start the phone with TWRP ?
Does my phone need to be rooted for that ? (it's not).
I haven't use odin or TWRP yet but I will try and tell you if that works.
Any advice for how to use Odin and TWRP for a beginner ?
Thanks

So after making a few more research to understand how to use odin et twrp, I tried to flash twrp using odin but it failed. Here is my log :

so what do I do now ?

Use the tar version of TWRP, not the IMG version.

I used this file : twrp-3.0.2-0-t03g.img.tar so it should be right

So I finally tried to wipe the data from recovery mode and it didn't work.

Is there something else I can do or is this a hardware problem ?

The sboot.bin file is the bootloader for the phone and could be failing due to the following reasons:
the ROM is not for the phone;
need to use a different USB cable and/or different USB 2.0 ports;
the bootloader in the phone is newer than the bootloader in the ROM;
the ROM needs to be flashed with a pit file;
the memory chip is damaged.

bootloop at note II logo

hi, need help with bootloop.
when I start the phone with the power button it'd restart back again after the note II logo
if I start with (power+home+VolUP), I'd get the teamwin logo, then bootloop like the case above, without even going into recovery mode
if I start with (power+home+VolDOWN), I'd get to the download mode.
I've tried to flash back to stock rom using odin. it goes without a hitch but the problem still continues.
however, i'd imagine if the flashing was done correctly and the phone's running on stock rom, shouldn't it stop showing the teamwin logo?

Try flashing the stock ROM again without auto reboot in Odin.
When you see the word reset in the Odin status window, remove the usb cable from the phone, remove the battery, replace the battery, boot into stock recovery, factory wipe, and reboot.

Looks like auto reboot was selected in Odin? I see it says removed towards the end.

Hi everyone! It seems that I got the same problem...
It started Yesterday when i was doing stuff and it drastically shuts down and started to bootloop.
So far I flashed a Stock ROM and nothing happened, reflashed the ROM I had ( CM12.1) with TWPR. Now I did a Repartition with Stock ROM and as you can imagine 0 good news.
I forgot to say that I can enter in Recovery and Download Mode.
Any tips?
