[@Rootjunkycom]

glad i could help please subscribe for more videos on this device

[@Gr1ndVirus]

Thank you so much, I saw lots of videos and this was the best option to restore the tablet without complications, just a recommendation that I hope you can add in your video, that make me nuts in the procedure, if Odin doesn't detect the tab, u need to use kies to install and solve problems with the galaxy tab drivers I used the kies version for Samsungs before September 2013 and works great, I hope this information can help someone, I really appreciate your job, thank you so much

[@lucasmixzn]

[@spartan456]

So I've got a tablet here, model GT-P5210, and I've gotten the correct firmware for it (or so I think). I got it from SamMobile, and it is for this device and it is the correct region (assuming Cellular South is Samsung's way of saying "it's for the US"). Every time I flash it with the firmware using Odin, it boots to the screen with the Android logo and the loading bar at the bottom and then shuts off. When it boots back up, it boots (once again) to the Android logo and then to a dead Android with a red triangle above it, and then it just reboots a second later. After a lot of time, I've determined that the stock recovery rom on this thing is somehow damaged (or the firmware I'm using is incompatible). Nothing I do will allow me to enter stock recovery mode to get it out of this boot loop. Any suggestions?

[@BrasilificationRock]

Rootjunky.com thank you very much, my tablet this working now =)

[@MrBabo2011]

Man a Life saver good job A+++++++++200% over 100%

[@Rootjunkycom]

[@charliehancock9570]

Hi I can see that the tablet you are working with in the video is an SM-T210R. I own a bricked SM-T210, can I still follow the same process as you and use the same kieshome, or would I need to install a different one for the SM-T210 model?

[@exequielianlebumfacil9165]

thanks so much. i thought the process failed when it was stuck at the samsung logo screen. i turned it off then back on a couple times before it worked. thank you

[@kuukihaya]

Does it matter if you use either XAC or XAR build number? I read 'round, and it said that the XAC is the Canadian build, and the XAR is the US build.

[@ericmustermann9219]

hey, can you say, which differences between the 7 and the 8 in-device you know. did you think this can be done the same way with the 8in sm-t315?

[@smooveleader]

[@2010styx]

Hello there, so here's my question: I recently bought the white tab and rooted it and everything, now I've changed my mind about the color and would like to return it and exchange it for the black one, the golden question is: is the binary custom reset after restoring the tab? could I exchange it at best buy? Thanks in advance!

[@AmroAlkhafaf]

Hi Rootjunky, I want to flash the latest stock build (T211), will it erase the internal storage (Pics and Videos)? Or this depends on the build?

[@Rootjunkycom]

+Amro Alkhafaf most likely yes it will

[@erinvillarreal6322]

Do I have to root my tab to go back to stock OS? Tab updated last week to 4.4.2 and I hate if and am having problems now. I just want to go back to how it was before update. I have a SM-T217S and I know I need the files for my device. Just need to know if I have to root in order to go back to stock. I'm brand new to android. Nervous because I've bricked a few iPhones. Any help would be great!

[@Benicida81]

Is there a Difference between SM-210 and SM-210R, Firmware-vice i mean? I have the SM-210 and would like to know if the Firmware link below will work for my Tab 3 7 inch?

[@TheKrShy]

[@yoyopeter4]

Hey i recently rooted my samsung galaxy tab 3 SM-T210R and when ever i try to turn it on it boots into CWM based rcovery mode i installed a supersu update because mine didnt have a binary and then i installed a newer update of it from google play store and then it said that it would put it into recovery mode and it did and now it wont get out of it please help. i have CWM v6.0.4.5 and i installed a root signed thing and i dont know how to stop it from booting into this mode

[@rodneygalindo1729]

[@russdirect1]

Can you help me with my tab 3 7.0 t110? I cant boot up and when I go to recovery it says failed to mount /efs (Invalid argument)

[@richardson2287]

thanks man work with my tab3 8 inch!!

[@cyrusgonzalez2912]

Is it possible to restore the model you if your runing a costom rom without odin?

[@christophergiannell3345]

Hey RootJunky - first, thank you a bunch! I tried to install Sweet Dreams v3.1 after I rooted and it made my tab too glitchy to use. I wiped system and used Odin to reinstall firmware, and everything works just like your video, but after it finished downloading, the screen went black and it shut down. When I go to turn back on, it just gives me a sound effect and a completel black screen. Not sure what to do. I booted back into Downloading Mode and I see the product name, Samsung Official Bindary, and a System Status of Custom. Not sure where to go from here.

[@RossCanpolat]

I had CM11 installed and when i went to flash back to stock as per your instructions it reboots back into CM11 even though Odin passed. I tried wiping the device in TeamWin Recovery and it says it wiped successfully but again it boots back into CM11. Any suggestions?

[@ishtarock]

HELP Me!! I downloaded Kingroot on my Samsung tab (sm-t337a) and my tab frozen then restart. my tab then had this message "⚠ system software is not authorized by at&t" on top to the left in red highlights "secure fail kernel". I've tried power+Vol+home key which takes me over to Odin mode; Product name: current binary: custom system status: official reactivation lock: off Knox warranty void: 0×0 secure download: enable UDC start. in this mode I connect my tab to my computer to use samsung kies. I used "firmware update and initialisation" it run for about an hour with a little blue update bar on tab then the S Kies didn't recognize my tablet😤. step 2 Power+ Vol up +home key android system recovery 3e I did the reboot now then the wipe cache patition, wipe data/factory reset, power down. they all takes me back to "System software not authorized by at&t has been found on your tab. plz I need your help. yours truly Queen of breaking shyt

[@salexYT1]

+Francine Mo plese if you get anything to fix please tell me thanx

[@TomGroenestein]

Hello I restart my tab

[@RCloke-fv2fy]

Quick question, my restore is unsuccessful at "Secure Check Fail" I noticed one difference in the message from mine to yours. Yours says: system.img Mine says: system.img.ext Is that my issue, and if so, can I fix it? Right now, i'm stuck.

[@lilazndumby]

I bricked my SM-210R and cant seem to get it to work at all anymore. I can boot up the CMW recovery, but when I try to install any zips and reboot to see if it works it gives me a bootloop. I tried many different .zip files but nothing seems to work, after fiddling with it for a while I notice a message that says no operating system. I been working on locating a OS that will be installed but nothing seems to have worked so far. This all started when I tried to root my tablet.

[@Austinpowers46]

Can you use usb host after you do this? Thamnks austin

[@KrisMasterz]

i have the same model as you said, but the last 3 characters are MK1, will this still work if i try it? or do i need a specific file for the build MK1 ?

[@Rootjunkycom]

yes you need the mk1 build to flash but it should be linked in the video description

[@deanbrunton1]

Hi, I've followed this and it said it was all a sucess but once it disconnects I still just get 'Samsung galaxy 3' logo, the loading noise but then nothing more....any hints?

[@deanbrunton1]

Re did this with the version to remove screen flicker and now works fine. Do you have the drivers to upgrade to jelly bean now (4.4.2)
