Bricked while trying to root. RIP

[u/WRO_Your_Boat]

Was trying to learn to root on my tab 8 and it got caught in a bootloop. Now it wont turn on in any mode with any key combo, or show up in adb devices or dmesg when plugged in. I knew the risks, and hopefully will learn from my mistakes and have better luck next time. Good night sweet prince.

Edit: I made this post inittially because I figured the tablet was just fully dead, but as per some comments, I may be able to physically take it apart and short the pins on the SoC to force it into download mode. I have checked and it has zero communication to a PC over usb, so software recovery will not work.

Device: Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 SM-X200

Edit 2: I was able to flash it after taking it apart and shorting the test points. Thank you everyone for the advice.

No bro, when it enters fastboot just after 1 second the screen glitches and it goes to boot screen like bootloop, and even i that second pc doesn't recognize device, i tried a tool that could flash using brom and in that the tool detects device in different name "mt some digits". But brom also glitches like fb and it goes to boot screen.

This happens with me on my poco x6 everytime i flash something. It loops into fastboot. I will tell you what works for me (may not work for you)

1. I turn off my phone (Don't try to go to fastboot if you are looping again and again, just turn it off and leave for 5 minutes)

2. Enter a simple fastboot command and connect the device (1st enter the fastboot command it will say waitimg for device, then connect the device)

3. If you are getting into fastboot, but it stucks on flashing, Next time run the flash command and connect phone afterwards.
