I attempted to restore using the following instructions...

The Guide | Teamovercome Galaxy Tab 10.1

I used the section named "Re-?Stocking? Yer System?"

The first time I tried Odin failed about about 20%.

I restarted it and did it again and it was successful. So I went through the process of wiping data/system and rebooted the device. Once I did that it started to boot loop. I went back into recovery and wiped data/system again and wiped the cache.. still boot looping.

So I attempted to Odin again and it fails over and over just getting stuck at about 20%. I eventually killed it and now I can't get into recovery, when i click on the recovery icon the screen just flashes for a split second and goes back to where you can choose download mode or recovery.

I can't boot, can't odin and cant enter recovery...

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
Ok, I'm back up and running now. I stopped using the crappy $5 extended charging cable I got off Amazon and used the cable that came with the device...

Disaster averted.
