Samsung Tablet 10.1 (2014 ed) Stuck in ODIN Mode - how to get out?

[GibbyHay3s]

Disconnected the battery but same situation as folks above. Tried flashing but not yet results. Stuck as a rock.

Same prob, stuck in Odin mode for two years. Somebody from Samsung please help us.

Same problem here. And one this starts happening, I can't turn it off - I'll get the white "Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1" words on the screen, briefly hold the power button to turn it off, the screen goes blank... but it's fooling me, the words return. I can only get to that or the "downloading - do not turn off" screen - which I left it at for several days, and I've come to the conclusion that it ain't downloading s**t. Tried the unplug-the-battery thing, no resolution. Called Samsung, that was a huge waste of time. After getting passed around to multiple people (with bad connections and very difficult-to-understand accents) who kept forgetting that it's a tablet, not a freaking phone - each would assure me that worst case scenario, I could send it in for repair. Lo and behold, the last guy goes thru this whole rigamarole, only to finally tell me it's too old, I can't send it to them for anything. I'd just like to get it up & running long enough to download my pics & documents. Has anyone come up with a solution???

In this order....

Hold each in order until reboot.......
1. Home
2. Vol up
3. Power

When it powers off immediately stop holding the buttons

Worked on my Galaxy Tab E 8.0 - 32GB

I have the Galaxy Tab A 10.1 SM-P580 and the only way I found to get out of download mode was to press down both volume buttons (up and down) at the same time, along with the home button, and then press and hold the power button until the screen turns black, which was about 10 seconds for me. Hope this helps someone!
