Brilliant guide
Thanks for taking the time to post this How-to.
I now have a 'Cellular South' Samsung Tab (csc-code XAR). Much better than the boot-loop lump of crap I made earlier.
Is there a simple way to make this Tab into a UK device, either by changing the csc-code and/or changing firmware to uk version?
Cheers!

Hi! Im not much of a good IT but I really need help for those with knowledge about fixing bricked devices, or having boot loop issues. So my Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 gt p5200, that's right, it's Galaxy Tab 3. Not 2. I really need help on how to fix my Tablet. The issue is that I ACCIDENTALLY installed a wrong kernel on my Tablet. I forgot to read the important NOTE about the kernel that I was gonna install cus it says it was only for Galaxy NOTE 2. And now My galaxy tab is having a boot loop issue like: When I turn on the Tablet, the Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 logo appears for about 15 seconds, then It turns off by itself, and then It gets back on Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 logo after a few seconds after it has turned off. I had already tried to install Stock ROM using Odin but it still doesnt work. So please help me for fixing this problem. I had this for about 3 weeks and I still cant find a solution. :'( NEED HELP! DESPERATELY! :'( I thank you in advance

Kind of in a predicament here. I tried rooting my WiFi tab 3 10.1 running 4.4.2, successfully flashing TWRP to then flash the .zip file. Unfortunately it got stuck on the Tab screen. Followed the guide to flash the firmware but it only removed TWRP enabling the stock recovery and on the start up, only getting past the tab screen to get stuck on a never ending Samsung screen with the blue light behind it. I let it sit the first time thinking its just re-setting up because of the firmware but an hour in and nothing, that was just wrong. Tried reflashing the firmware but no luck either. Need help please.

What part
What part do I connect the Tab to the PC?

P5220dxubnh1
Hello, how to root for p5220DXUBNH1 running on kitkat.. 4.4.2
Firmware?
The first download link is for the 7.0" tablet. Does it still work on the 10.1" version? I can't find the US version of the firmware on Sam Mobile, so the other option is my only choice...
Thanks in advance!

[Q] I've bricked my tablet...

Hi
I have a samsung tab 3 10.1 GT-P5200. Long story short, I've bricked it. It doesn't want to boot into recovery mode. Thus the only option I had left was to install stock rom on it via Odin (so I was told).
My problem now is I have searched this forum amongst others for help as to where I can download rom and how to flash it. I've downloaded a few but each time it is either giving me a "FAILED" message on Odin and saying "Invalid volume size " on my tablet. Please help!!
Where can I download rom?? Maybe I'm flashing it wrong?
I don't know and I'm really desperate! Please please PLEASE somebody help me..
Sir,
Please wait until mods will move this thread to the device specific forum for more relevant answers.
Stand by
Good luck
