[Q] I've bricked my tablet... - Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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

Need help after a failed root with Odin on a P5200.

Hi everybody,
I tried to root my tablet with Odin but at the end something get wrong and now it doesn't get on correctly.
When I turn it on, the message "Samsung galaxy tab 3 10.1" appears but it stays locked on these screen.
I'm a beginner with these things and that's why I need your help.
If I get it right, I should put back a recovery but I tried with one find on these forum and it didn't worked.
Can somebody help me?
Thank you very much

need HELP with "firmware upgrade encountered an issue"

Hello fellow community!
On first place i want to excuse myself for my bad English!!
I have soft bricked T-Mobile (USA) Samsung Galaxy S4 and everything i found in the web DIDN'T help me to recover my phone...
Here is my history for what i did to bring this condition of my phone.
I was on Original T-Mobile 4.4.2 Stock ROM working normal without any issues. But 2 or 3 months ago i was curious about installing on my phone CUSTOM " CYANOGENmod" rom 5.x.x NIGHTY edition. At all installing on that custom ROM was without problems and phone for this 2~3 months works flawlessly "normal"... all this time i updates every day this custom theme and I'm understand this is NIGHTY but at the end i was kind tired from this NOT exactly real and fully functioned replica of custom ROM and get decision to restore my ORIGINAL status of the phone and put latest (4.4.4) Stock ROM. 1st i download 4.4.4 ROM "M919UVUFNK2_M919TMBFNK2_M919UVUFNK2_HOME.tar.md5" for my T-Mobile phone. I put in in DOWNLOAD mode. Connect phone to my computer.. and Start ODIN3 v3.10.6 ( didn't install Samsung drivers because i already have installed them !! ). In AP i put latest ROM... checked was ONLY options Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time ... NO Re-Partition was checked or pit file wasn't given !! Jus i hit the SATRT and receive that !...
everything was fine till the end !!! Flashing stops on try to flash hidden.img.ext4 with error and FAIL all process !!!
I CANT understand where is my problem and what i can do to flash my phone normally?
Please community help me to solve this problem..
1 year ago i have almost the same problem but with the same error "firmware upgrade encountered an issue" and remember here on XDA DEVELOPERS i read the guide how to recovery phone after that but TBH i cant find this guide now with all my searching attempts..
Please for HELP!
and Thank you in Advance for your support!!..
Cheers!
Not 100% sure but you needed to do a factory reset before flashing stock firmware.
You can't flash kitkat over lollipop before doing factory reset because they are two different firmwares.
Try doing a factory reset and flashing again, if it fails pull battery, replace battery and go straight into download mode, connect to pc and flash again with odin.
Sometimes the double flash can be successful.
Good luck.

GT N7100 no start error. No recovery. No Logo

Hello. I have been using Note 2 GT N7100 for over 3 years now. Have rooted the phone and was running a Crdroid custom ROM on it. It did not give me any problem. Nor did I update the ROM since it was running good.
Suddenly yesterday it got stuck on the Samsung logo. Tried restarting it, but it didn't move ahead of the logo.
Today, it shows a grey and white screen. Fully blurred and can't see the Samsung logo too.
Tried going into the recovery mode, but same grey screen appears.
If I take it in download mode, it goes there. But when I try to install any stock ROM, it doesn't work. It shows failed in Odin.
Please help what can be the possible problem?
If any more information is needed, I will provide it.
Any ROM to install or custom recovery?
Please guide what to do?
Also, I am sorry if there is already some post like this. Please let me know
Thanks in Advance!

Hi guys,
Is there a link for the Recovery Package/ROM ? (the one above doens't work)
My phone is stuck on the boot logo and I need to fix it... (I'm a bit noobish..)
