Re: i dont know what to do

Welcome to Android Central! How did you do the factory reset? Is there a reason why you did it? Was the phone misbehaving beforehand?

Try booting into Recovery and wiping the cache partition: http://forums.androidcentral.com/sa...ing-into-recovery-mode-galaxy-s2-s3-tab2.html

If that doesn't help, you may have to try reflashing the stock ROM via Odin: http://forums.androidcentral.com/am...w-flash-stock-rom-via-odin-new-interface.html. Find the specific firmware here: Firmwares - SamMobile
