    Portuguese ISP Shows Us What the Net Looks like without Net Neutrality

    Help unbricking Tab S

    No problem, glad you got it sorted out. factory reset and/or re-flashing will usually repair any kind of soft-brick on android, as long as you have backups its usually the most simple, fastest and efficient way to repair your devices.
