All, I did watch the guide and I did spend nigh-on 3 hours, no exaggeration, trying to find my solution.

But it looks like I've really messed up big time!!!!

Idiot that I am, I had everything running perfectly before, however I have become far to over confident and i think i have bricked my device!! I flashed this thinking it was rom that was stable (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2561064)

Unfortunately its left my device unable to turn off & will only will restart showing the Samsung logo. I installed previously a custom recovery & cannot access it. I also cannot access download mode.

When you stop laughing at me can you please advise my wisest course of action? Stupid thing is I can flash and mess around with my GNex until the cows come home, but this has me flummoxed and greatly worried.

I look forward to any reply's.

Sorry to say this, when follow this thread then you see that is an test.build

1. Can you start your rom into recovery mode?
Is your answere yes than follow step 2.
1A. Can you start your tab into download mode, is your answere yes. Flash the stockrom by odin.

2. Download a flash able rom on your pc , copy this on your ext sdcard.
3.but the sdcard into your tab.
4.start your tab into recovery mody , do a full wipe, and than flash the rom from your ext.sdcard

cross your fingers and hope that your tab booted.

As previously said, cwm or odin are the only ways you can do to revert to stock because you flashed a test cm rom. Did you try to charge your tab maybe you have lowbattery. Or maybe one of your volume keys and home button are broken.

don't blame my rom lol. Hold volume down , home button and power at the same time for like 20 secs then it will be in download mode. I have soft bricked it over 50 times. same for recovery you have to hold , vol up , home , and power until tab reboots to tab 3 logo then keep holding it for like 3 secs then let go it will go into recovery.
