[Q] I/O 10.1 stuck on Samsung screen

---

Please help!
I was working on rooting my tab, it looked so easy, and used adb to push the file and adb reboot restore. It looked like it was doing a normal boot up but now it endlessly shows the Samsung animations. I never got to select from the SD card or anything. Now what can I do? Is there a secret button press to go into full restore?

search for my post in TAb I/o boot loops!

P.S. Please bother to search, this topic has been covered immensely here!

Thank you for that. I had tried several "fixes" the came up in searches but none worked. I will try yours tomorrow, I only have a Mac right now.

Still can't get fastboot to see tab. Windows seems happy after mod on inf but the only info I could find for the mod was for a v. Could you please post what you added to the inf?

Got it! I found a Windows 7 box and the instuctions at the post worked.
This is what I added to .inf

;Galaxy Tab 10.1
%SingleAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_04E8&PID_6860&REV_9999&MI_01
%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_04E8&PID_6860&MI_01
%SingleAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_04E8&PID_6601
%SingleAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_0955&PID_7000

Thank you Very Much!!!

Pressing power and volume UP button for ~ 10s will go into recovery mode ..

from there do a data wipe and you should be able to get out of the infinite loop

The referred recovery mode in galaxy tab 10.1 is mostly useless for factory reset or data wipe! fastboot and loading recovery.img (factory or clockworkmod) than booting into recovery is the only solution!

got factory recovery to datawipe
