Samsung Tab A 8.0 ODIN: flash read failure

[AC Question]

My tab will only power down when the Pwr+Vol Dwn+Home Buttons are all depressed. The tab screen will darken, then within 1 minute will shoe the Logo-in text:
"SAMSUNG
Galaxy Tab A" centered of the screen

and the top left corner has the following 11 lines of text:

Samsung Tab A 8.0
ODIN : flash read failure
ERROR : There is not pit binary.
ddi : mmc_read failed
ODIN MODE
Product Name : SM-T350
Current Binary: Samsung Official
System Status: Custom
Warranty Void: 0x0
Qualcomm Secureboot : Enable (CSB)
RP SWREV: S1, T1, H1, R1, A1, P1
Secure Download : Enable

I have removed the battery for several minutes at a time, but each time I replace the battery and cover, the aforementioned Text warning repopulates.

Please help! I am not able to boot out of this un-selectable Top left text warning!
