GT-N8010 update



All,

My sister and mum have got a GT-N8010 each which is as up to date as possible using Kies but its still on 4.xx.

I'm looking for a ROM which will put it onto Lollipop and can be updated OTA if possible so I don't have to keep checking it for them every time I'm there.

Not really interested in ROOT etc, anybody got a simple ROM that I can throw on it to modernise it slightly?

GT-N8010 bricked after weird "Encryption failed" message



Dear all,

I have read through most (if not all) the other "bricked" device threads, but they don't really fit my problem.

I was on TWRP (sthg) and CM 12.1 (latest) here from the forum.
Everything worked fine for ages.Yesterday I used the device to the latest miliAmpere and only later the connected the complete empty Tab to the Power and restarted it.
Next morning the device showed "Encryption failed" and something that I have to do a factory reset. There was a "reset"-button, but I didn't used it and shutted down the Tab via the power Off function.

Since then the device is not reacting. Currently it is bootlooping into TWRP (!). I cannot switch it off and it actually gets rather hot. The only way to stop this "cycle of death" is to go to download mode...

I already tried to change the recovery to CWM and also to TWRP again via ODIN. ODIN worked fine, but I still cannot start the recovery. TWRP makes a boot loop with its logo and CWM loops without showing anything.

I wonder what will be the next best steps. Odin is working fine, so I don't want to ruin that as well.

What do you think? Is the Bootloader corrupt?
Why does it always boot into recovery (I can't get into a System-Bootloop)?


Any help is really appreciated!

Best,
Jan
