Hey can you give me the link of rom file, sp flash tool and driver ? May be I can give it a try
Hi,
i finally unbrick my tablet!!! after 3 days and night, i dont beleve allready, its posible...
drivers: IMHO it does not matter witch version of drivers you use...
tool: i used SP_Flash_Tool_v5.1552.00_SecureBoot. if flash tool doesn`t start with missing MSVCR100.dll, try use another comp (my notebook Win7x64 = 6004 error, PC Win7x86 = red line to 100% > 2004 or 2005 error). Must use MKT_AllinOne_DA.bin and auth_sv5.auth, tablet without battery, no any vol+/- button hold, just start download in serurity mode and plug microusb to tablet.
stock: TB3-730X_S038_170627_ROW. i tried TB3-730X_S033_160707_ROW, TB3-730X_S037_161228_ROW but TB3-730X_S038_170627_ROW roms flash finish successfull.

Fastboot help
Which OS you are using ... just keep the windows update on the drivers will be downloaded automatically .. Get some more details of your computer
It seems you have driver problem.
try 'fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce getvar version'
if it returns something like 0,3 it means drivers are installed correctly.
if stucks on waiting for device, reinstall drivers =)
Ok thanks I have Windows ultimate 7 32bit

Hi buddy
Here U R
the link you want it
as I'm new I cant send link in form of Url
follow this ht tp://w w w.mediafire.com/download.php?y89fff6mc8hblia
I had a similiar problem, though not the same. It was fixed after a reboot of my Windows 7 x64. I think my computer had problems dealing with the USB being connected and disconnected an awful lot. I have no idea if this is where your problem comes from, but it might help if you're like me and prefer leaving your computer on at all times.
Also, if you're quite new to rooting and flashing, and aren't that interested in learning the ins and outs of it, I recomend using Flashtool [1] for flashing to an earlier version of stock Android, rooting your Android, easy booting in fastmode and flashing your kernel. The only use I've found for fastboot.exe is to unlock your bootloader [2] (official guide by Sony Mobile), though I might be missing out on something (while I actually do not believe I have).
Please keep us posted.
As I'm a new member, I can't link directly to outside sites, but I'm going to break that rule to try and help you even further (ie. I did the Googling for you). Replace the spaces below with periods. Links:

thanks but actually i have unlocked bootloader.. and i have some xperience because i had x8 and i have tweaked it full
Had similar problem!
First couldn't get into fastboot, had problem installing S1 driver. Changed the USB port on my PC and it asked to install the S1 again. Chose the directory where it was and voila.
Now I have to use 2 different USB port for fast boot and flashmode. Little annoying but I got used to it.
Try it, it may work for you.
Reinstalling Windows should be your last step, especially a stable OS as Win 7!
P.s. Why don't you use Flashtool? In it's newer version there's a *.exe (under drivers folder) file that automatically install all needed drivers.

So I have managed to semi-brick my phone by flashing a ROM I made with MTK Firmware Adapter Tool.
It gets to bootscreen and hangs.
Preloader works and I still have access to recovery and fastboot.
I cannot flash the stock ROM using SP Flash Tool as I get a BROM error: (BROM cannot pass bootrom start command).
I've tried holing volume up during connecting the USB cable and volume down but no good.
I still have CWM recovery. Can I convert my stock SP Flash Tool .tar to a CWM .zip to flash using CWM?
I should be able to push the ROM to my phone using adb.
I've tried flashing the working boot.img from the stock ROM using fastboot but that didn't fix it.
Thanks.
An off-topic question. Before you flash the phone wrong, what opinion did u have for the phone? quality, battery life, camera, loudspeaker sound, screen, etc?

Ha! The phone is good.
Screen is great, 720p. Build quality is generally very good.
Camera is good in full light but suffers in low light and there is an issue with the flash. It is either very weak or is firing at the wrong time. The vibration effect feels strange and out of the box the GPS isn't great. You can fix the GPS once you get root access.
Battery life is good too, certainly much better than I was expecting. Sound is good with a decent pair of headphones and the external speaker is OK, just don't expect HTC One quality as it only has one speaker.
Currently the main issue is lack of custom ROMs which is why I was trying to flash my own.
Having said all of that I'd have to say it's a very good phone for the price. The screen alone is worth the $200.
Seems good enough, except the issue with flash at camera. It would be good to try with another application.
Where did u find the stock rom? Can u upload a screenshot with the error of sp flash tool? wich version do u use?

I tried Cymera but no good. I'm not sure if the flash is just very weak or firing at the wrong time.
It takes decent photos in good light.

Hi. Did you tried to flash S136 ROM?
Please describe your phone:
What was the original ROM ?
Post a picture of your phone!
It is made before or after 03.2014?
Did you tried another scatter file to see what is going on ?
Did you tried to flash first the preloader and then after preloader flash, to flash pressing download button your rom?
Sorry for the delay but i installed Windows for every case (to exclude possibility of corrupted Intel USB drivers) and becouse i was pissed off . After installation of Windows i got same problem, but in 203 attempt :silly: i done next:
Pressed red button ( like countless time before), started SP Tool v.3 and loaded STOCK ROM S124 ROW (which i downloaded long time ago ). NOW, while SP Tool checking ROM i connected USB and after release button.
I done this same thing at least for 50 times and i don't know why worked this time
I installed S124 because i wanna install SLXROM, and as far i understood SLXROM doesn't detect SD Card when you flash it over 4.4.x
Anyway i lost minimum 5 hours for this (and lost my Windows during the process )
Stympy tnx for trying to help

What you have to do is to install the drivers and flash any other firmware. Look on my post Rooting tutorial for kitkat, in q&a section.

The proper solution is to reflash your firmware , or if you can enter to recovery is to factory reset!
See what is going on. If you cant enter in to the recovery you must reflash your original firmware.
Tell me if you need to reflash the stock firmware.

Hi.
Read this small tutorial twice.
Here are the drivers: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-p780/help/rooting-tutorial-kitkat-t2835605/page12
Look at the bottom of that page.
Install first the exe file, then reboot your PC. WARRNING: you must have Win.XP or Win.7 installed.
Download stock firmware from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-p780/development/p780-stock-rom-links-t2842399
After flash you will have firmware: ROW S124 JellyBean. If you want KitKat you must do OTA Updates or download those packs and install them from your phone by turn. OTA is my advice till S228. S2287 is the lates and last official updates.
Download SP Flash Tools from here: https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B_B98oK4DpK1S1l2bXRkTGxhVFk&usp=sharing
Unzip all to separare folders.
Next step is: Power down your phone.
Open device manager.
Plug the usb cable to your phone and to the PC.
In the device manager you will si first MTK65XX... device detected and after this drivers should install.
After drivers are installed disconnect the phone.
Now open spflash tool v5
Load scater file from the folder of the firmware.
In the download tab not button select firmware upgrade - nothing else.
Now press download button and plug the usb cable to your phone.
Flashing should start.
After flash one green circle with ok should appear.
After this remove the usb cable and start your phone.
If your phone is not starting you must repeat the procedure with the new preloader.
Look on your phone box and see if your phone is made after 03.2014.
If it is you must replace curent preloader with new one.
Link to new preloader: https://drive.google.com/folderview...VQ3pJeG9vTlh4Y3pMUG9ES3FtX21ZdjlwVzY3VWc#list
Use only that preloader.
Good Luck. :good:

My fellows and friends,
One of these days, I received an update from LineageOS and when installing it from OTA ( using TWRP ), the first lines ( about 10 to 15 ) from the istallation sequence activities were all red, showing that something went wrong. Immediately I removed the batery to stop the process and installed the first version of the custom rom, using the TWRP. It worked fine and I received some notifications about the new revisions of the rom. I skipped the one that caused problems and accepetd the download the one on the Nov, 17, 2018 of the rom, and had installed. It appeared to me that everything was ok but, one day I turned the phone off during thje night. The next morning, I tryed to boot the phone without success. It started an infinite loop situation..... So, I tryed to repeat the same procedure to install the very first version of the rom using TWRP at the recovery mode. When I was using the TWRP to perform the advanced wipe, the dalvik cache, data and system could not be wiped. The answer about the problem was shown as : failed to mount /efes ( inavlid argument ).
I got the information that, in cases like that, the stock rom should be installed. I downloaded it from www.stockrom.net and had it istalled with the use of Odin. Unfortunately, the boot loop was there again.
What was worse now was that no TWRP was installed and Odin could not recognize the phone, although I had installed the newest set of drivers from Samsung, applicable to any devices from them.
Please I need your help to see if there is a possible solution to solve this case. Phone Model: GT-i9300 SSN -I9300GSMH - in Brazil
The message I got from the phone: E: failed to mount /efes ( inavlid argument )

Flashing a stock ROM will always replace TWRP with the stock recovery.
Are you trying to flash the latest stock ROM?
Do you have a backup of the EFS directory? It's an important directory as that is where a lot of information, including the IMEI is stored.
Hi Audit 13, thnaks for replying.
No I don't have the back up for the folder you mentioned. I was trying to install the last stock rom downloaded from www.stockrom.net, which I suppose was the last one. The worst part is that to computer does not recognize the phone since then.... I do not know what to do. I suppose that there is not a way to back up the folder you mentioned. I think that I have to install something from the very begining, as if the phone was to receive the installation of the very first program, as if it was just coming from the factory, totaly clean. Is that so? Am I right? And, how to do it? I tryed to download the stock rom from Samsung, but I think it was difficult and could not have it accomplished.
Thanks a lot and I'm still waiting instructions of how to solve this problem.
You should try using different USB cables and different USB ports to recognize the phone.
I assume you are using Windows since you mentioned Odin. When you connect the phone, do you see any new devices appear under Device Manager?
What is the phone's model # in download mode?
Is the the ROM you used: https://www.stockrom.net/2015/11/stock-rom-original-de-fabrica-samsung_19.html ?
Did you try using Odin 3.07?
Hi Audit13!
Thanks a lot for your help! I've already got hte files you mentioned and am preparing for trying to do the procedure you taught me.
Thanks again and soon, I hope, to be back to confirm whether it succeded.

Hi Audit13,
Unfortunately the computer is not recognizing the SGS device.
I was ready to install the sock rom you suggested, had downloaded the Odin 3.07. I use Windows 10 and the latest drivers have been installed. The phone was in the download mode and tryed all available USB port. I've waited some minutes in each USB port for recognition with no success.
I thank you for your help. Is there any other method we could try? If you could please indicate, I thank you again.
Is there a method available using ADB procedures?
Hope there is.
Thanks, anyway for the help.
Hi Audit13
I think that the situation got a little worse. I tryed to do some recovery on the emergency recovery mode, but none of them succeeded. Now, what I get when tryng to get to the recovery mode is an android robot with an open belly with a red triangle coming out of it.... It gets to thedownload mode, but no recognition from the computer. This happened after trying to ionstall the stock rom obtained from the site you mentioned. The only thing that I could do was through the Universal-Android-Diag-Enabler-V2, what made the qualcomm start. Is there a way to make a comand to the phone that could star the USB debbuging? I tryed the various ODIN versions but with no success.
There is another problem - I'm using Windows 10 and the PowerShell uses different command lines not recognized by adb. I tipped devices and the program indicated that there was an mistake.
Is ther an Instructions Booklet for Odin?
What is your opinion? Do you think that there still exists a solution for my phone's case? If so, what to do?
Please, I ask you to help me on solving this problem.
Thanks in advance...
