i tried to fix it with various methods, but not work. i can't flash with odin. i can't restore original firmware with kies. i can't use sideload because when i do something with it, it hang.

Have you got TWRP, can you still boot into TWRP?
IF you can get to TWRP, go to advanced wipe and repair all your partitions.
If you don't have TWRP try flashing it using detailed instructions on the Fenris thread

HELP.Bricked tab3 8 SM-T310?

Please help because I messed up my tab3 8.
I was using the BinDroid ROM and today I decided to flash this ROM [JB/KK][4.3.1/4.4.2] CyanogenMod unofficial builds.
I started flashing the Philz recovery via Odin. After that I have bootloop.
I tried to flash stock firmware via Odin and still have bootloop.
Is there any way to fix this?
I am able to enter recovery or download mode.

1.Do you boot into the Philz recovery or the one you had previous to Odin the recovery? If its philz try wiping data and cache and rebooting.
2.Next check if the md5 of your download matches and you have downloaded the correct zip for your device (lt01wifi). If so factory data reset and then flash again.
3.Make sure you are using ODIN correctly. A good guide can be found here http://forums.androidcentral.com/ambassador-guides-tips-how-tos/300296-guide-samsung-how-flash-stock-rom-via-odin.html
I flashed the stock firmware again and still bootloop.
Then I did a factory reset via the recovery and that was it!!!! My tablet is fixed!!!
I pass the Philz recovery then and root the tablet.
So now I am with the stock ROM and rooted. Thank you!!!
Is your data lost after flashed ?
Image, mp3, video etc..

Im pretty sure your rom that you are running is corrupted, this has happened to me
when this happens recovery will not let you run that ROM. So it will
keep rebooting into recovery. Try this, go into recovery Wipe Data,Cache and Dalvik
then reboot, if it still doesn't work try flashing a Rom.
my rom is the orginal sumsung rom that came with the device only rooted.
i will try wiping the data/cach/dalvik and then maybe restore an old backup that i have.
thanks for the advice.
well it didnt work.
i also tried to recover a working version of my rom and still boot loop to recovery.
plus when i power it off and connect the power cord it startup automaticaly to recovery.

I think The onlyest way is to flash a Stockrom to your Tab.
Then try to flash a Recovery to your Tab again, but i prefere CWM or Philz Touch not TWRP.
maybe i should install philz on top of twrp and then restore old backup?
i dont think i can get the orignal frimware form samsung in my country.

The prob is, only with CWM or Philz you restore Backups froh there, is The backup froh TWRP you need TWRP as Recovery.
Download from sam The Version what is in The box .
well i found the orginal rom in .img file at samfirmware. i belive its pure stock - i know that someone of you can confrim this - but how to i flash it?
i belive is with odin buth as for the instracion. is it like flashin recovery with odin? if so i will follow that instracation and give it a go.
I have the same problem, did anybody figure this out?
ended up just reflashing the stock rom from odin instead of twrp and it worked.
Fix

So I've done this before, attempting to install a different type of ROM, the only way to repair this is to return to stock via Odin. Download the stock rom in the 10.1 dev thread, reboot into download, and flash via Odin.

[Q] How should I go about unbricking my friends phone?

Hello, my friend has a Ace 2 (GT-I8160) and he wanted me to try and install CM 11 on his phone. I managed to root it and install temporary CWM on it, however his version of CWM could not flash CM 11 ROM's because it was outdated. I Googled around and found a TWRP .img file that I decided to flash via ODIN (CWM couldn't flash any TWRP .zip files for some reason). Everything went perfectly fine with ODIN, however my friends phone could not go pass the Samsung logo, it would appear for a few seconds and then the screen would go black. He also couldn't go into recovery but he could go into Download mode. Thinking that it was a recovery problem, I managed to get a .img file of TWRP 2.8.6.0 by Chronomonochrome and flash that via ODIN. Still the same problem - phone won't go pass the logo, however it can go into recovery.
So, now the phone boots perfectly to Download mode and recovery - and it can do everything from the recovery, like making backups, wiping, etc, but it cannot boot to the OS itself. I still haven't flashed a custom ROM on his phone because he didn't have the ROM file on his phone at the time nor could be transfer it to his phone via his PC because of some driver issue.
I'm currently downloading I8160XXBN1 firmware from Samsung Updates to flash via ODIN and try to get his phone back into working state. However, I also planned on placing my SD Card (which has the CM rom and Gapps on it) into his phone and flashing a new, custom ROM instead of flashing the firmware.
Does anyone have any advice on what I should do? Should I flash official firmware via ODIN or just flash the ROM using the recovery?
Thanks in advance.

bricked/soft bricked please help

before /how i got here
i wanted to install a rom on my n5110
first I flashed twrp through odin and i could never access the recovery
so i tried to follow these instructions
https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/n5110/install
which use heimball (i have used adb before, and i did have some trouble installing himball on el capitan, but managed to install version 1.4.1 since then i found that maybe it doesnt work anymore)
this is where the trouble started after flashing i was unable to access stock rom or recovery and was stuck at boot image.
after that I tried to flash this rom via odin (return to stock)
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2773712
now...
somehow this failled and i ended up with a screen that reads (firmware upgrade encountered an issue. please select recovery via kies....)
since then I have tried flashing again via the above method which failled
and another stock (N5110UEEMF1 from https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2289441) which may have further confused things as realise that this is the out of the box stock and I was on kitkat
which gave the error " invalid magic string"
I have searched for a similar enough problem but not found please help
bump
Download the stock ROM from updato.com or sammobile.com and flash it with Odin. If it gets stuck in a bootloop after flashing the stock ROM, boot into recovery and perform a factory reset.
I recommend flashing with the original Samsung USB cable, a USB 2.0 port, and Odin 3.07.

Tablet wont reboot in recovery mode after flashing TWRP

Hi to everyone.
Recently, I wanted to mod my tablet (SM-T805 chagalllite) and install the TWRP, and then a custom ROM. I followed a guide, dowloaded the twrp.img.tar file, dowloaded ODIN (3.13) and continued. I started my tablet in Fastboot/Odin mode, selected the file under the AP checkbox, connected it to the computer and then flashed the recovery. It said PASS and immediatly after it rebooted I pressed the key combo Power+Home+VolUp but it started normally. When I returned to the fastboot mode, it said KNOX WARRANTY VOID 1, so it did something. But simply the recovery wont start up, although I retried another 3 times. I tried with the AutoRoot package, it did the red android thing, the SuperSu app was there but the Root Binary wasn't. Any help?
P.S:
The twrp and odin are both at last version.
Nevermind, I solved my problem. I installed CF Autoroot which reinstalled stock recovery, and flashed TWRP using its official app.:good:
I need help was using twrp 321 some thing for quite a while and had no issues flashing ROMs back up ect. But I tried to do a restore and it failed due to , unable to mount system.
Ok no problem i thought I'll reboot and try again. Only now twrp loads the splash screen then reboots it self. IV tried updating to latest version with Odin still doesn't help. Samsung t805 here please help

Ok I fixed it the back up from twrp curreupted the recovery partition. Even reinstall twrp doesn't work or trying to get the stock recovery. To fix it you need to download the entire stock ROM and install the ap via oden in odin mode. My system didn't even boot stock but this fixed the recovery partition and could flash twrp and install a custom ROM
