Have you tried booting into recovery mode from startup?
Turn off tablet completely and wait at least 10 seconds.
Hold UP and POWER buttons at the same time.
When the Samsung logo shows up, release only the POWER button (keep holding UP).
Use the UP and DOWN to make your selection after the menu appears.

tomtec 7" hangs in boot.

I have here a tomtec 7" tablet which recently keeps hanging in boot.
If I switch the device on, I see the android logo, then the tomtec logo, and then the android boot word and there it stays forever. I'm not sure how I can get into flash mode, power on with + button pressed or power button with - button pressed, I tried different things, but I always advances until it hangs into 'android' screen.
Is there someone who knows how I can make again a working tablet out of this instead of an expensive paper weight?
Thanks.

The problem is that I can't get in factory reset mode. For my other tablet it's a combination of volume button + or - when powering up. With this tablet it doesn't work that way appearantly.
The tablet is on the shelve already for a while until I find a sollution. If I remember well I tried something with that sd, but it was not succesful. So the first syep is that I need to be able to break off the boot sequence before the androidlogo appears, but until now no success.

[Q] So difficult to load Stock Recovery Mode! Why?!

Hi there, Guys.
I'm noticing that it's so difficult to load the Stock Recovery Mode! For example, when the device is off and I hold Volume Up + Home + Power, I can't load it if I hold them forever, just like I used to do on the first Note.
Basically, I need to stop holding them absolutely immediately after "Galaxy Note II - GT-7100" white letters disappears to have success loading it.
Is this normal or just with me?
If using CWM, this would be different? For example, My Galaxy Note has CWM and It loads so easily just holding the three buttons forever. I don't need to "respect this ultra fast time gap" after device white letters name appears to release buttons!
=====
Edit:
Just noticed that actually I need to release the three buttons WHILE the "Galaxy Note II" white letters are still on the screen.
I'm confused. Can't understand this "time out" rule that messed up the "easyness" to enter Recovery Mode.
You'r not alone, i have this too. Is your device rooted ? Mine is (with chainfire method), maybe it's a side effect of rooting.
Edit: Thank for the tips on how to enter recovery mode, very useful ))
I can enter recovery easily by holding the three buttons, then when the white note 2 logo appears, let go of the power button and keep holding only the volume and home button until you get into recovery. Works every time.

That's right, after some time and fails I'm used to it. Actually I don't release just Power Button, but all three buttons when white logo appears and it works also!

Yet another bricked tablet

I rooted my tab-s 10.5 the other day, I used Odin 3.10.6. I then used flashify to add TWRP, again no problems. From there I really don't remembered what I did to it, but now it is stuck at the white logo that comes after the colored one and now it will not turn off I can get into the Odin menu but that is all. I have let it discharged all night then charged it then I turned it on, it then got to the logo and stopped & will not shut off . I am tempted to send it to Samsung(even though I voided the warranty) and let them fix it. I am at my wits end on this.

White logo? Samsung logo or Galaxy Tab S logo?
I assume Samsung logo. Anyway you can force reboot by holding power+home button + BOTH Volume up and Down buttons all at the same time until the screen goes black. Then quickly press the recovery button combo and restore your backup.
Now if your at the Galaxy Tab S logo, hold power+home button+ both volume buttons until the screen goes black, then press and hold Power+Home+ Volume down buttons then that should get you into download mode. From there flash your firmware.

The download mode is what I thought was called Odin mode which I can get to. The thing is I do not have a firmware. I looked at several sites for one but I did not know which one to down load. They were for other countries but the US..

Do you own the SM-T800 (WiFi 10.5 Tab s) or Lte 10.5 Tab S?
It is the SM-T800 the wifi one.
Well after a few tries, I got into recovery mode, restored from backup, now it is stuck at the Tab S screen

Heres the T800 lollipop firmware https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347760201
I mirrored it so the download should be fast. It's U.S region
So I should use Odin to load the firmware, right.
Thank you DUHAsianSKILLZ very much, it worked. I about panicked there for a moment when it took awhile to boot. It looks like all of my apps are still there, I only had to reset my wallpaper. Thanks again.
IF I decide to reroot my tab-s(and it's a big if) what file do you recommend and what recovery file.

I usually don't recommend flashing twrp with flashify as it causes some problems but most times don't. I use this tutorial (by me lol) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=59638836 and had no problems so far installing twrp + rooting.
The problem you could of had that gave you the bootloop is that you might of hit something I don't know. I tend to only use the recovery to flash roms and hardly ever for backups (takes to much space). I just keep a custom ROM on my sd card since most of my things are backed up into the cloud.
Or you could use this, root and twrp in one:

Hi
So I was trying to flash on TWRP using Odin.
I got the sucess message on Odin
When I tried to restart the tablet it shows the Samsung logo, then the back button and multi window flash twice and the tablet turns off.
I cannot get into recovery mode i have tried power+volume up+home
Tried power+volume up+home then letting go of power
Tried power+volume up+home then switching to volume down once samsung logo appeared
I did notice my computer has access to the tablet storage even when the display is showing black does this mean its actually on?
