Here's a quick step as well from my memory only, I just did this 2 days ago.

0. Ensure the tablet is at least 50% charged and is turned off.
1. Download Samsung USB driver and install on your PC.
2. Download Odin and extract to a folder.
3. Download the correct stock firmware from sammobile.com/firmware OR from samsung-updates.com. I would prefer the latest one. I got the Dec 20 2012 New Zealand for P7510. Extract the MD5 file on the folder where you placed Odin.
4. Run Odin as Administrator, tick on PDA, and choose the firmware file (extension is MD5). Leave the other options as is. Odin will take a minute or so to process the firmware.
5. While tablet still off, plug the USB cable on the samsung connector on the tablet. Don't insert in the PC yet.
6. Turn on the tablet by holding POWER and the VOLUME DOWN button to enter the recovery. Using the VOLUME DOWN button, move the highlight to the "Download Mode" (the right option), and press VOLUME UP button to choose it, and Continue after the warning.
7. Now connect the other end of the USB cable on the PC where Odin is waiting.
8. Click START in Odin and wait for it to finish. The tablet will reboot when done.
9. If for some reason it hangs on SAMSUNG startup, repeat step 6 above but choose the left option (instead of download mode), and do a factory reset, and reboot the tablet after.
10. Done. Pure stock.

Perhaps you need to tick repartition in Odin? Just a guess though.

To say the least it is a but frustrating. (Samsung Tab 2 10.1)

You know there is a GT2 forum and not everything here is compatible between this original 10.1 and yours.

No luck restoring/resetting Tab

So I followed all instructions, found the right firmware, got Odin, everything seemed to go well, my tablet indicated that it was downloading the firmware, Odin finished and announced success... but my Tablet screen is black again, it doesn't reboot. Trying to reboot just gets me back to where I was before: Eternally stuck on the Samsung logo, unable to even turn it off for more than a few seconds because it simply turns itself back on and goes to the logo screen.

Trying to do a hard reset leads to the same black screen as the end result of Odin. Plugging in the tablet leads to a battery screen that looks frozen (though it does charge).

Anyone have any idea what's wrong with it?

    Hey guys
