Hi all. I bought a Note for a friend of mine in June here in Italy. It hadn't ICS but, as known, I told him that later on he would have seen a message stating that there were an update. I told him to download it through Wi-Fi, and then appling it while the phone was plugged in or the battery fully charged. Just to be clear: he has got a computer but he barely know how to turn it on, so I'm absolutely sure he never changed the ROM with a custom one.
Yesterday he downloaded (I suppose 4.0.4 ... or 4.0.3: I don't know what is available here in Italy) and applied it but the phone, but then the phone never turned on again. If I turn it on, I can see the boot screen (Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000) forever ... I tried to enter into recovery: I verified it still has 3e so, as I suppose, nothing was changed. I tried to wipe data/factory reset but nothing changed.
How's this possible? There something I could try before returning it to Samsung? Thank you in advance.

I'm quite sure it has never been rooted, my friend said so and I think he couldn't be able to root it ...
I can't be 100% sure since I don't know if another friend of him putted his hands on it ...
Anyway, there's no yellow triangle on boot, this could let me sure that it has never been rooted?
Otherwise, since the a3 recovery is working, could I put a stock ICS on the SD card and apply the update without void warranty? TY.

and yes it was successful

I see there are a lot of problems when flashing i9000 roms on the captivate
I need help also I have flashed I9000 on may captivate and every thing goes fine after that I have tried to install root to fix orientation problem and used GalaxyS_One-Click_Root_All_Models but it got into recovery mode and the volume up and down works and change the selection while power button can't select any Item and Every time I restart the device it goes into recovery mode .!!!!!!
Can any one help going out from recovery mode ???!!!!!
I was having the same problem I think mine had something to do with the usb port either it was physically damaged or something else was going on I finally got it as close to stock as I could turned the phone off and took it to att rep so it would only boot into download mode, he scratched his head then handed me a new one.
Thanks in advance for any response!
The followings are my phone's symthoms:
1. My phone WAS FANTASTIC until I updated new Darky extreme version 9.2 (upgrade from 9.0)
2. I degraded it to the stock rom with Ryan's OLFG -> Working very well...
3. Until the phone was restarted. The phone was still working however
4. IT BECAME FREEZING. I couldnt scroll, couldnt touch the screen, or the phone response was like 5 mins later for each touch.
5. I followed instructions on the internet to flash with stock rom (JM8) and upgraded it to JPO, and the result is
6. THE PHONE COULDNT BE BOOTED at the Galaxy logo.
7. I tried to flash the phone over and over with different stock roms using ODIN 1.3 (with well understanding about repartition and PIT)
8. NOW, my phone is still able to access the download mode, but my PC CANNT SEE THE PHONE DRIVER ANYMORE(tested on 3 other laptops with the same result)
9. Reinstall USB drivers like 20 times, the results have been the same.
TO me this should be a phone death. Im gonna purchase the new Galaxy S 2
HOWEVER, If there is anyway to revive my phone back to normal (Cuz I wanna get some important data in the internal card), I will not only send a big gratitude but some DONATE as well.
Thanks.
so you put the phone in download mode first... then you attach the USB ???
Does anything happen when your in Odin ?? does it not say connected or anything ??
and have you tried doing a factory reset in recovery mode ??
aslong as your phone can go into download mode there is still hope so dont give up on it just yet
U obv have samsung kies right?. Go on processes on ur pc ctrl alt del n kill the kiestrayagent process
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
Surely I killed KS before doing ODIN. The PC(s) said it was Unknown device.
My phone was on when android 2.1 installed (but freezing, not just lagging .... completely freezing on the home screen) and would not boot if i installed 2.2
Sigh....
Thanks for your replies
The PC(s) said it was Unknown device.
Thats generally a USB /driver/windows problem .
You installed deadlys rom and it should still be recoverable even from that .
Is your phone picked up via Kies phone/Odin will need Kies installed .
I would have flashed back to a clean copy of Eclair first off to get the phone working .
jje
Both Kies and Odin could not see my phone... I killed Kies process before doing Odin, but the result was still a sadness.
Hi everyone. I have a rooted Galaxy Note 1. I accidentally tried to update something (the phone said there was an Android update or something) and now my phone in stuck in a bootloop showing the Android logo. When I try to reset it (volume+home+power buttons) it goes to an Odin "Downloading..." screen and gets stuck on that.
I've seen some stuff about unbricking the phone using Odin to return to the original stock rom. But from what I can tell, there are different stock roms available depending on your Country Sales Code (CSC). So apparently I need to look in Kies for my CSC to know which rom to download, but Kies doesn't recognise the phone, I guess because it's bricked. I know the phone is from the UK, but I don't know what network it came from (I bought it second hand). All I know is that it is unlocked now.
I have CWM.zip, CWM-SuperSU-v0.87.zip, and franco.Kernel-r5.zip on the micro SD card from when I was rooting it ages ago. Do these have anything to do with fixing it?
Any ideas on where I go from here? Thanks for your help.
Which volume button did you press ? You need volume up + home + power to get into recovery.
You can flash any rom from any region using odin.
Same problem
Hey,
Thanks for helping me in advance...
I used the Custom ROM (( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1970626 )) Ultimate N7000 for a long time. However this build became more and more unstable the longer I used my phone.
So I decided to go back to STOCK.
So I followed this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997
And everything went well (Odin didnt give any errors)
However after reboot... the problem began... I cant turn my phone on anymore.... It seems to be stuck in a bootloop....
How can I fix this?? please help me
Which rom did you flash? If you flashed JB, boot into recovery and wipe data. Then reboot.
Hi. So i'm new to this Galaxy Gear stuff. I bought my gear second hand from a friend (so i do not have any warranty or what so ever) I rooted and flashed a custom rom on it, everything went fine and everything worked good, but now i wanted to sell it so in order to sell it i had to flash the stock rom on it. I downloaded the right file (i live in Finland so i selected the Finnish one) and when i tried to flash it nothing happened. It said bootloader where it says fail or pass in odin an i waited and waited and nothing happened, then i unplugged it from the pc (big mistake) now it says on the screen when i turn it on ''Firmware upgrade encounteredan issue. Please selectrecovery mode in Kies andtry again''.
If i try to reboot the gear it comes to the same screen, so i can't go to recovery i guess. And when i try to connect it to Kies 3, it says it's not supported ? Odin recognizes it but if i try to flash again nothing happens. So my question is dear xda members. Is there any way to fix my gear or is it broken for good.
-Thanks
If i forgot something i'll answer as soon as possible!
i'll make it short
One night,i've used my phone,and before going to sleep(phone still working),i left it to charge.(That's at about 11pm).The morning i wake up,phone cannot boot in recovery nor in download.It was like dead.But i have left it to charge for some hours then charging animation came back,then phone could boot again,including download mode but not recovery(linegeos 14.1).Until today,i have tried to flash custom recovery,stock recovery,wipe file to wipe data and cache,tried to install cm12.1,but none of them worked,still stuck on bootloop.If i recall,the night i used my phone last,i tried to use lucky patcher to get unlimited coins on dream league,but with play protect,they warned me that google would give warning,but i did not do anything.After all the flashes including recovery and the rom that failed,i ticked the nand erase in odin but seems like nothing changed.And now i'm out of options,if someone could really help me please,this is the only phone i've got.Phone can boot fine,but not in recovery and it will not install idk why,please help me...
something i've seen in download is that after flashing recovery or wiping data,in the place of current binary,it writes something like sdcard write status:2(7) or something like that.
does any of you know the problem?
no answer?
pls help me
i have the same problem is so sad
so there's no fix?
I have the exact same problem in my i8190, despite of being totally stock. I'm trying to flash stock rom, stock recovery, custom recovery, custom rom, something... and nothing happens, Odin says PASS but it seems to be like there is no memory to write on. I'm thinking it could be some hardware issue :'(
then there's nothing to do...
so sad

Hi everyone, I am having a similar problem. Last month I have tried to install novafusion RR distribution to s3 minI because it was rebooting all the time, but since I didn't liked it I went back to the original firmware. A few days ago my cell died, it wasn't turning on. The guy in the repair shop told me it wasn't the battery... the nextday it was turning on, buy keep rebooting. I bought a new original battery, charged it but still the same problem.
I tried to install twrp and central recovery via Odin but nothing works, it freezes on the "Samsung Galaxy s3 mini" or it reboot..
I would like to know if there is something that I can do, because I want to backup some contacts that were saved in the phone memory, sms and the last whatsapp chat, for some reason the last automatic one is from january...
Any ideas?
