Hello
I have a tab 3 7" SM-T210 with android 4.4.2 which I messed up trying to root. It loops at the tab 3 screen. Earlier I was able to get to the download part of it with the green android, the bar under it would fill up and from there I'd hold the power/menu/volume up button. It would hang at the tab 3 screen but from there I would be able to turn off/restart the phone and it would boot up as normal. I kept having problems and I tried doing a factory reset in the settings menu. Now the tablet hangs at the tab 3 screen. If I try to turn it off, itll reboot back to the tab 3 screen. I can hold the power/menu/volume down buttons to get to the download screen but power/menu/volume up just causes the tab to reboot. I've tried diggin through here, google searches, youtube searches and I'm unable to find a solution.

Hi all
I have been asked to look at a Tab 2 which is bricked. I am able to boot the unit to the "Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1" screen but no further. I am able to boot into download mode but not recovery. When I try to access recovery mode I just get a black screen. No combination of button presses displays anything on the screen. I was hoping to access recovery to try and work out what had been done or at least perform some file recovery with adb if possible.
I can't just flash the device as the owner is not around and I can't get hold of them at the moment. Any suggestions?
Wrong forum. This is the Tab Pro section. I recommed posting in the Tab 2 section.
Hi Wonder if anyone can help?
I downloaded mirror beta from the app store to mirror my Galaxy Tab 3 SM-T210 to my apple TV3g.
Once downloaded i was informed that the device had to be rooted, so I used Kingoroot and followed the instructions. Everything was fine during the rooting process and completed informing me that it was successful.
The problem is after this the Tab is stuck in a constant cycle mode of the Samsang GALAXYTAB 3 boot logo.
I have managed to power it off ( Black screen) but have been unsuccessful in getting the device into recovery mode to try an hard reset.
I have tried all the button combinations I could find on Google but it only just shows the galaxy screen. Any help would be much appreciated since it is my daughters tablet and ill be in a valley of it if I cant get it restored.
Thanks in advance
Have you tried to Boot your Tab into Download mode?
If this working , flash Stockrom with Odin.
I'm in a similar situation with the logo boot loop except I am unable to shut it down. I hold the power button for 10 seconds and it reboots right back to the logo again with no shut down. How can I shut this down?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I got in the same situation trying to root my Tab. I wound up holding the power button down a really long time and then gently releasing; then I booted it into recovery and there is an "unbricking your 10.1 " post on XDA that has a stock 4.2.2 link.
Once you get the thing into recovery, and it took several attempts (like for two days)- I had given up and was thinking I had finally truly bricked an android) I got it into recovery and then used Odin to flash the original stock rom and it worked. Then Samsung almost immediately downloaded the OTA and I was at 4.4.2 stock.
The sd card slot is broken, so I am still trying to get the tab rooted, but for now just having it functioning in stock form is better than that Galaxy emblem slowly flashing every 5 seconds until the battery dies (Itried that too, thinking it may somehow recharge and reboot and something would be different-no such luck)
But I found holding the button down persistently made the difference, at least it seemed to.
Good luck
I just went to turn on my tab pro 8.4 and it will constantly try booting into recovery, but when it hits the TWRP load screen, it just reboots and the cycle repeats. What should I do?
i've tried holding down the power and volume down buttons until it restarts but it just goes right back into the loop. I can't even manage to get the damn thing to turn off entirely without it rebooting.
Can you get into download mode?
I have an issue with my Note 4 - It did not get past through the initial screen where it displayed "Samsung Galaxy Note 4". It would not go to "Recovery" screen either. It simply kept on boot-looping. So I tried to go to the download screen (Vol Down + Home + Power) and installed the stock firmware (L) through ODIN. Installation went successfully but now still cant enter the Recovery and keeps on boot looping with the blue text "RECOVERY BOOTING...." on the top left. Any suggestion would be highly appreciated?
I can go to Download mode but it wont go to recovery.
It is galaxy note 4 verizion retail version.
I have a Samsung Galaxy s6 on 5.1.1 (Sprint SM-G920P)
I tried downloading and failing to install xposed stupidly. So then it was stuck on a bootloop. I then again stupidly did a factory reset thinking that it'll fix the problem (but it only got worst in my opinion) i then flashed twrp and tried to install the uninstall for xposed but i couldnt uninstall it because it wasnt any data folder to put it in since i ****ing did a factory reset. Anyways then i got frustrated and did an advanced wipe and cleared all the data... I am now just stuck on the "samsung galaxy s6 ... Powered by android" screen and i need help . I literarlly tried everything
Black and white Samsung logo showed up.
Initially I could only get to blue Downloading screen
By observing and trying various described ways I finally got to the Android recovery menu.
My current procedure to get there is here:
Turn off holding Down+Power
The b/w Samsung logo will automatically come up and stay that way forever
Hold Down+Power+Home until screen goes black and move finder from Down to UP while still holding the Power+Home
as soon as black and white Samsung logo comes up AND continue holding UP+Power+Home until Android flashes and recovery menu comes up.
Then I did go through the described wipe cash, and factory reset and some more wipe cash with reboot system in various combinations and always ended on black and white Samsung logo screen.
Tried to flash sboot but failed.
Then the new firmware showed up for sprint and i tried flashing 2 firmwares (G920PVPU3BOJ7_G920PSPT3BOJ7_SPR and G920PVPU3BOI1_G920PSPT3BOI1_SPR)but both succeeded but is still on the samsung logo screen
From the recovery menu only power down selection is useful as it does turn the phone off until I turn it on. The power button does not power off – it just boots back on.
Apply update from cache gives yellow text in the bottom of the scree: “APPLY_CHEK is deprecate.”
I have no clue how to use e.g. first 3 menu items.
Reboot to bootloader – just brings the b/w logo .
View log displays row upon row of things I have no clue about – pages of it.
On the very bottom of the screen – in yellow – there are two lines:
“dm-verification failed…
Need to check DRK first…”
Please help. — Max

Flash using Odin. There is a video linked in the OP to show you how.
That should take you back to stock.
Do what Koop said and then follow: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/unofficial-xposed-samsung-lollipop-t3180960
I also recommend this when you get Xposed working: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/app-xtouchwiz-customize-stock-samsung-t3296878
I use this on my S6 and have experienced absolutely no issues.
