I'm having trouble flashing stock Samsung 6.0.1 firmware on my T700. I tried flashing USA (XAR) and Netherland (PHN) firmware using Odin 3.10 and 3.12. Everytime I get stuck on the SAMSUNG logo screen. While on that screen my T700 will vibrate once followed by 3 short/quick vibrations. It'll do this vibration pattern every 2-3 minutes. I waited as long as 25 minutes, but I never get past the SAMSUNG screen.
If I can't fix this, I'll just flash TWRP using ODIN and restore a backup.
Edit: Fixed the problem by flashing TWRP and wiping data and cache. Then I flashed the firmware and it worked. I though flashing stock firmware would wipe data and cache for me, but I was wrong.
thanks a lot, I had the same problem
I'm Beat?

Download mode is Power + Home + Volume Down. Try Volume Up instead. The way to remember is Volume Down for Download mode. If Volume Up doesn't work, then I don't know what to tell you.

I recently flashed calkulin rom 292 now this is were my phone screens only goto. Please help I also included pictures.
That doesn't look bricked. Bricked would be if you had nothing show up on the screen. If you try to go to boot loader can you? It should be power + vol down or power + vol up as u start up.
Go into recovery and wipe data then phone should boot also cache and delvik cache

Power + vol down should be recovery right cause if so it no longer goes there just to the Odin screen an say downloading

Power + volume up is recovery power + volume down is download mode. You are definitely not bricked though. If for some reason you cannot get into recovery just flash back to stock through odin.
Been there done that. Download a stock romm or the one click and instal with Odin.
You aren't bricked.
Good luck
If you cannot get into recovery just follow this video and you should be good to go. Make SURE and follow all instructions to a T or I cannot help you with any problems you may have.

Hey guys,
I managed to soft brick my device by flashing all sorts of crap today. :laugh:
I am able to get into download mode and Odin recognizes the phone. I have been trying to get my hands on the stock factory ROM in Odin flashable format but haven't had any luck. All the links I have found around here are either broken or are taking so long they are timing out.
If anyone has a working link to the stock ROM that I can flash through Odin I would be very grateful.
Thanks!
Do you have stock recovery? I had same problem before lol.

No, I was on TWRP Recovery. I flashed from CM10 to the new JB Touchwiz leak after performing a full wipe, which went fine. but then i decided to flash the nav bar mod and a theme just to see how far I could push it. Clearly the limit was hit. :laugh:
Thanks for this. Flashing now.
Strange, after flashing the stock boot image in Odin (which went successfully) I cannot seem to get the phone to boot past the Samsung logo. I also can't boot into recovery (volume up + volume down + power) is not working.
Any ideas?

Boot into recovery (you're doing it wrong) and do a factory reset
Volume up + Home button + power until the screen comes on, then quickly release and you'll be in recovery. Then factory reset, you'll be good to go

If you still want stock:
Download T999UVALH2: http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&model=SGH-T999&pcode=TMB&os=1&type=1#firmware
Flash it through Odin.

Hello,
I have a Galaxy Nexus GSM. I rooted it and unlocked the bootloader using Galaxy Nexus toolkit a while ago, and flashed the 4.1.1 stock ROM (Build number JRO03C). Yesterday i received a notification for a system update to 4.1.2. I hit download, phone rebooted into recovery, i chose to flash the rom and everything seemed fine, however i'm still on the older version 4.1.1. Now, when i try to boot my phone into recovery (VOL_DOWN & Power Button) it shows me the boot screen and says "Downloading, please do not turn off" and i can't do anything. If I hit the power button again the phone reboots normally. Any ideas what I can do?
Sorry if I am at the wrong section.

Volume down and power is the key combo for Odin download mode. You want volume up, volume down, and power. This will take you into the bootloader. From there, you can use volume up/down to scroll to recovery and press power to load into recovery.
That used to happen to me.....I later realised that it's Coz of the update....well simply return to the previous version of the app and re-flash without the upgrade. Hope it helps u out too.

Thanks a lot! So how can I restore the Odin mode from applying the update? Reflash the ROM?

Look at the stickies in the general forum. There is one for flashing an OTA & one for flashing a stock ROM, take your pick

Hi there,
everytime I flash CWM 6.0.4.8 and Philz Touch 6.3.0.1 with Odin I'm unable to boot to recovery. I have to flash the stock rom and the the recovery image again to work around this. I wonder if there is any solution to simplify this process as I have a few devices here and it's kinda annoying
(Edit: I see a yellow warning sign after flashing the recovery the first time)
Any ideas?
You acces the recovery by pressing power + volume up.
Maybe this is your mistake ?!

Are you sure you are holding the buttons long enough? This may be the problem
if you let go right when the screen turns black and about to reboot this won't work.
try to hold it almost until the recovery sign pops up. Also instead of booting to recovery
right away try powering off and letting it rest, then boot up and into recovery.
PS : Make sure you're flashing a stable version and compatible version of recovery.

Read this http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s/general/recovery-t3140233 you need to get into to recovery and wipe data/factory reset and cache then reboot and wait for it to boot up, it does take a while.

This is how I do it. Press the Home Button, and the Volume Up & Volume Down Buttons (To do this press down on the volume rocker in the middle ) & the Power Key all at the same time. When the screen goes blank, still keeping the other buttons pressed, slide your finger that's on the volume rocker to the volume up position. You should then enter the Recovery Screen where you can restore to factory settings and wipe certain partitions.
Good Luck.
