Note Totally Bricked - Any Comeback ?? - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Help
Galaxy Note totally goofed big time I think?
Phone won't turn on or go into recovery / download mode - totally lifeless when power button pressed in combo with the volume etc
Tried the usb jig too and nothing at all.
Pc / Mac doesn't recognize when plugged in with usb cable so I can't get any 'unbrick' files onto the sd cards.
Any ideas???
Any way of taking it apart and accessing a hidden reset switch / button inside ??
Any place to get it master flashed / software reset - besides Samsung ?
See if it bounces when dropped from a 10 story building, see how far I can skim it into the sea, skeet shooting with it, aah the list is endless.
Doh !!

JTAG/RIFF Box
Yes is the answer - as I only installed the wrong bootloader, which hard bricked the phone.

So now I have to find a local mobile phone shop in the South West of England that can do repairs using a 'JTAG/RIFF box'
Phewww....that was close..

Nice Post !
Hope you to get your note back soon ....

I flashed the wrong BIOS on a PC once, That was the end of that - Flashed it with a PS2 BIOS - You only do these things once :laugh:

HELP: I accidently installed a Sam. CAPTIVATE rom on a Galaxy S i9000- Not booting up

PLEASE HELP: Calling all experts!!!
After installing the: [STOCK ROM] Odin3 One-Click Downloader and Drivers CAPTIVATE ONLY
My Galaxy S 19000 is stuck on the at&t boot screen.. the at&t logo just keeps flashing...
I cannot get into download mode...
PC is not recognising phone via Kies, odin or anything else...
Something tells me I have made a huge mistake somewhere along the line.. any fix???
Thank you
If no recovery/download mode working...
Only UART/JTAG, check on progress on this.
Thank you for your help...
Quite expensive options aren't these, GOOD THING I HAVE INSURANCE!!!

HELP!!!!
If your phone can't get into download mode due to it being disabled it looks like your pretty much screwed. You could phone samsung and see if they'd fix it.

If you can get to the AT&T logo part, I'm assuming you should still be able to get to download mode. Did your phone have dl mode before?
Thread moved to Q&A section
Yes my phone could get into dl mode b4 but now it doesn't work any more, phone just keeps on showing at&t logo and rebooting.
When I put the USB lead in the phone does not switch on at all..
thanks 2 all for assistance in this horrible mess negligence has left me in.
the USA models goes into download mode by using the volume up + volume down + power
see if that works
Thanks for your reply...
no joy... any other viable button combinations I could try? I've already tried many to no avail...
I'm no expert on the matter but don't you think that since you flashed a Captivate ROM on an I9000 that the home button wouldn't work since the Captivate doesn't share the same home button? Logically I would try looking for what the combo is for the Captivate to get into download or recovery mode. Now, I may be wrong and it may not work if the captivate uses its home button to enter the home button but it's worth a shot.
Edit: I just checked here and it says you hold both the volume up and volume down button while you press the power button. Try that.
With the device off, try holding both vol + & - then plugging in usb cable. Thats how a captivate enters download mode. If flashing the i9000 on captivate changes the button sequence it could not hurt to try.

@ Bell & foom....
I understand both your thought pattern and YES this was mine also...
However thus far no combinations have worked, still continually looping the at&t logo.
If I plug in the charger or USB whilst its doing this it kills the device, it wont switch on...
Knowing the different CAPTIVATE button comb. to recovery or download mode would be a big help right now.. also how the buttons would be mapped... i.e Captivate rom. on GALAXY S device?
How would one fix a captivate that was continually re-booting at operator logo start-up? Might be another way to angle this?
Thanks....
Think u are better off paying the guys at samsung or phone repair store to load the right firmware back in if u dont have the 3 btn combo...

try downloading that one click unroot program, plug the sgs into the computer and then force unroot, although the unroot won't work it should then allow the sgs to enter recovery mode.
Unfortunately my PC is not recognising the phone...
Plugging the USB in while the phone is switched OFF does nothing....
lugging the USB in while the phone is switched ON.. Turns it off...
Same things happen when the Charger is plugged in.. Althou the phone seems to still charge!!!
Arghhh..
Thanks for your suggestion thou.. Any more help/ ideas are welcomed...
Last resort maybe try heating up the phone like the others did to force download mode?

so any news on this? i too have successfully flashed the captivate rom on my unbranded i9000 the official repair shop i first took it to (mttc <Lithuania>) told me that it needs a new motherboard, and it would cost me 700LTL(270 $us)... kinda sounded like bull****, so a week ago i took it to a private repair shop, they said they had jtag, so i should be hearing from them this week, if not, i'll buy the stupid riff box myself and repair it..
no button combination worked for me, and the symptoms were exactly the same, flashing att, usb kills it etc. etc.
well, my advice would be to keep contacting different local repair shops, and asking do they have a jtag that supports the samsung galaxy s, if they do, the repair shouldn't cost more than 25$, at least thats what I've been told. good luck, and stay in touch, update on your process, cause the number of people flashing the wrong rom on the i9000 is horrifying.
it kinda sux that its so easy to brick the sgs... and its wrong for people to state that "if you have 3button combo enabled, you are safe", well thats just bull****.
No GOOD news as of yet, but I am in the process of to admitting my SGS to a official samsung service centre.. I was also thinking of sending it directly to them for repair...
???
Still been trying some other things to try and jump-start this blasted thing in the meantime but NOTHING IS WORKING!!!!
I to am thinking about purchasing this riff box or JTAG but it would be for a ONE TIME USE only... Seems like a waste of money when I can just claim a new SGS through insurance only thing is playing the WAITING GAME!!!
I Shall definitely update this thread with any progress made in the coming days...
Here I was thinking I was a lone soldier with this dilemma...
Also I agree... SGS = Too easily bricked.. and no solution?? Other than splashing out 100+ £/$... in your words truly SUXXXXXXX!!!!

Sorry, but ANY phone (or even any electronic component for that matter) is easily bricked if you flash firmware from a completely different device onto it.

well, afaik, its very hard to fully brick a new htc device.
anyway, i suggest you try finding a jtag repair shop first, as samsung will take a lot of time to "repair" it, or even tell you that it needs a new motherboard..

UNBRICK your SEMI-BRICKED Galaxy S - Solution

Hi. Just a few hours ago while I was on my way home, I was browsing some news feeds with my SGS and I noticed some lag so I thought of restarting it, but to my surprise.. it was not booting anymore and it was stucked displaying the "S" screen then after a while it will go black although the buttons are still lighting up but there is no response or any activity in the screen and the only way to turn it off is to pull out the battery.
Upon getting home, I browsed the internet to find similar cases with most of the suggestions on how to "fix" this was to bring it back to Samsung Service Center and I'm not ready yet to do that so I dug in deeper to research. I just want to share the steps I have done to UNBRICK my almost Semi-bricked SGS.
First of all, my SGS doesn't have access to the 3 button mode recovery (Volume up + Power + Home) thus basically leaving me helpless because I cant reformat my phone from there and worst, in this case, my phone wont even boot up.
Secondly, it was fortunate that i had my phone rooted prior this.
Now, the process:
You should atleast have:
* KIES installed
* Android SDK
* USB Cable
First thing I did was:
* Connect my phone to the USB cable
* Turn phone on
* Wait for KIES to detect it and for windows to install necessary USB drivers (my phone was detected by KIES even if it was hanging in the "S" screen)
* When everything is done, go to COMMAND prompt in windows
* Locate where you initially placed the ANDROID SDK then Tools folder by typing it, example: (C:\Android-sdk\tools)
* when you are already in the right folder type in ADB REBOOT RECOVERY
* Check your SGS and it should be rebooting to the RECOVERY MODE wherein you will now be able to select format options
* move your selection by pressing up and down volume keys
* confirm your selection by pressing home key
* then reboot again and presto.. your phone should be up and running again
Anyway, if you cannot access the recovery mode by using the 3 button process, it could probably because your operator intentionally locked this feature out. There is a fix I found from XDA that works search for : 3 button mode fix
Hope this helps and drop me a message if you have queries.
By the way, i'm trying to restore my apps again so ciao for now.
-Charles
you forgot to mention something
You must have USB Debugging mode set to enabled before hand, before all of that happened, else if you simply plug the USB cable to the PC with the 3 button disabled, there is no way for it to accept the ADB Reboot Recovery command
The next best thing is as many have commented before
It's to use a hair drier to heatup the phone to get access to the 3 button recovery, for those that got stuck before installing the 3 button recovery fix
also forgot to mention that this has been asked, posted, discussed many many times already. i am glad, however, that you got your phone to work
but he has it listed in a very nice an easy to read format, compared to the other ones we have seen previously
my phone did that a lil while back but i have an early ship date phone there fore i have the hard ware recovery option but this is late coming how is it that every one always says to use odin to recover a bricked phone yet i guess im totally noobish but what good is a back up recovery tool if you cant mount storage

Hello guys
I was trying to unlock my vibrant(i was messing with my nv_data.bin) and then all of a sudden it rebooted and i couldnt connect to my service. It keeps going on off on off. My data doesn't work too.
Any thoughts on how to fix this?
THANKS (
Just restore the backup you made of nv_data.bin. You did back it up before you messed with it didn't you?!
Thanks vincler.....
you solved my problem. i made the jig after 2 months but i did it.
i combined the resistors with no solders and just touch the pins with my hands and i got download modes.
thanka again.
i must see how u did this witout soldering

oh man mine wont even boot PLEASE HELP!!!!

[Q] Bell Vibrant, black screen, no recovery

I've read several topics but i couldn't find the right answer. I hope you can help me.
The problem i have happened without me doing anything recent. I have never flashed any rom, and i rooted my phone for titanium backup like 2 month ago and it worked fine.The last things i did was to install pocket legend, the new mmorpg like 3 days ago.I charge my phone during night, and take it for the day in the morning. Today, the screen stayed black when i picked it up. When i reboot, the screen goes black after the samsung logo.
The problem is that i have recovery mode (the 3 buttons) disabled and when i try to connect to kies it says i am not in samsungs kies mode.. Is there a way to force it to detect my phone so i can try update it?
According to the wiki, my phone doesnt seem to be bricked as i can still see the battery charging when i plug it. Is my phone bricked? Any hope?
I know the easiest way would be to return it to the store, but i dont want them to see my personal information/rooting as i cant even factory reset it.
There is also that topic on internal sd that has failed but i think this is not my case. You can still boot into android without the internal sd right?
I've seen a topic on soldering two mini usb cable to force the phone to go into recovery mode. I not familar enough to do it. If this method could solve my problem, could anyone sell me one?
Was there an over the air update today that could've done this to my phone?
I am lost, please help i am really clueless in what is happening to me.
are you able to go to download mode
flash your phone that way with odin i had the same problem as you
download mode as in using the 3 buttons? no i cant unless there is another way?
I can't get odin to recognize my phone.. I can't get into os so no usb debugging...

Okay, I know the jig will DEFINITELY work in this case. Any phone state I've come across with that jig, I can throw the phone into downloading. However, it seems that there MAY be hope for you PRIOR to using the jig. Are you familiar with the ADB commands? If so, turn on the phone, connect via USB, run cmd as administrator, navigate to the proper adb folder and under the prompt type in adb devices. If it shows any device, type in adb reboot download and it'll throw it into download mode for you.

Good to hear that the JIG would work. As for ADB commands, doesn't it need the usb to be put in debugger mode? Is there any way to do it externally, without going in the setting menu? I am not very familiar with the adb commands but if its doable i will go read about it.
Thanks for suggestions!

exactly... it's not possible via ADB in your conditions
Thanks you for help!
I still tried but it said that it couldn't find my phone.
I leaning toward making a JIG. I just have to figures out how if no one sell them
Did you really tryed Download Mode?
"Vol Down" + "Home" + "Power" instead of "Vol Up" + "Home" + "Power"?
I tried several time different combo listed on wiki without any success. About 3h long!
I bought my phone the first day it came out so i guess the hardware method is locked.
As soon as i can get it back running i will apply that new fix for the combo.
I am a bit worried about the homemade JIG, will it still work without usb debugging?
Where in the world are you?
If you are in the GTA area, then you can invite me for a coffe

Seriously! ??? I just soft bricked my phone I really don't know why these software and hardware companies can't get this right the first time. I was going to by an iphone until a sales rep showed me the galaxy s and I was impressed until I saw the black screen of death. A whole lot of B.S. to fix something that should work right in the first place. I'm getting tired of faulty equipment.
My Galaxy is still under warrenty I'll bring it back to store but I'm fed up with worthless technology.
black screen help plz
hey guys i have a galaxy s vibrant which will turn on nd the home nd back nd other buttes will turn on but my screen wont any idea what it might be ?

[Q]Galaxy s dead

hi this is a bit strange for me. Me, my associate and a friend got a galaxy s i9000. My associate and me are always upgrading and downgrading with odin, trying last firmwares, kernel and more, no problem at all.
My friend got his stock kernel 2.2.1 on his phone. Two days ago he bring me the galaxy, totally dead. No combination, no download mode, no signs recharching, no signs attaching to the pc
He says "non ho fatto niente" (italian version of "i am scared of what you can think so i lie and gave the problem to you")
i searched the forums and tried some solutions (like vol+ and vol- while attached to the pc and insert the battery) but nothing happens. I have tried the battery of my phone, nothing. I have tried with the jig usb, nothing.
So, there is something else i can do? Some trick? I read in this forum that someone have solved with the jig, but how? I just put in, put in and tried to turn on the phone, nothing.
There is no sign of life at all. It's a paperweight?
Had the same thing, got in to download mode this way:
Hold menu+vol down+power and then (still holding the keys) insert Micro USB in to phone (Odin running). You need at least 13 fingers on one hand (finally visiting Chernobil payed off )
I tested it three times, only this worked (phone was totally dead, failed at flashing Sbl.bin).
Mine is still bricked (something wrong with my USB on comp or the cable) and at the moment I can not get into download mode this way (failed at param.lfs). Previously the phone was of battery for 24h+ and I'm waiting to see if this does something.
Good luck, you'll need it
nothing happens :S
tried odin 1.82...
there's a youtube video that shows a modified home made jig and it worked!give it a try
Are you still holding the keys after you connect USB cable? You should for some time.
How long has it been disconnected from power (removed battery)?
i put in the battery of my galaxy that was a 60%...it is better to use the original charged?

Link please!
(If you are not allowed to post links, just replace http with h**p or something)
I'll put on charging...it's getting hotter so something "it's alive"...we'll see
so...i made it working, don't know how precisely...it was full of crap, so i wiped out and upgraded to 2.3.4...but:
got arctifacts while changing screens (from desktop to app menù and turning on)
the phone shut down totally random...
I suspect some sort of hardware damage. You should put on original firmware and RMA it. If you don't put on original firmware they will claim it got damaged while flashing with an unofficial rom and you will have to pay for repairs and parts.
Could be faulty internal SD, can you run some sort of Android hardware testing software?
actually is "empty"...it doesn't have sim neither sd, is there charging...and now doesn't show the charging animation, shutdown again...bah
ok this is scary...the last 3 times the phone shutdown was because i put back the rear cover...wtf...
what about the testing tool? any name\know usefull software?
Seems we have similar problems. Sometimes when I had put my phone on desk (on the battery cover, not display) it shut down. Put a piece of paper under the battery but did nothing.
I meant internal phone memory, not removable sd card.
ahhh kk...and what about teh testing tool? you know some good app?
Today, i tried to flash my galaxy with 2.3.4 I9000XXJPY , something like that ... and i got stuck at partitioning .... So i removed battery. and now i cant turn on my< phone. I cant enter download mode, because 3 buttons are not working for me So what are my options ?? Jig? or anything else ???
try the other combination vol+ home power...i did this today and it works...otherwise try the jig, always worked for flashing brick
That doesn't work either May phone is strange. When i first tried to update it trough KIES, something blocked, sedond time was a success, after that i got MTP crashing aplication problem, that i couldn't solve i will get the Jig and try that. But if for some reason, JHig doesn't work... what are my next options ???
If phone is totally dead, jig won't work. If jig won't work, you need jtag. If jtag won't work you need to replace 'motherboard' on the phone.
If jig does not work, just RMA (odnesi na garanciju) the phone. If flashing kills it, something was probably wrong with the phone.
(hold vol+ home power and while holding them plug in USB- it worked for me, but failed again and it doesn't work anymore)
Ok, today i got jig, and i insert it into phone, and download mode pops up, but when i connect it to the computer, computer doesn't recognize phone, and odin too ??? what to do now ??
Have you tried reinstalling the Samsung drivers on to the pc?
Also make sure Kies isn't running, it's worth a try
I tried, no luck Any other solutions maybe ???

Help Me!!! Black Window in Galaxy Tab P7510

i´ve got my brand new galaxy tab P7510 and after two day and swiching it down, black screen appears. Cant get it to start and i tried to charge it and wait for several hour but nothing happens. When i connect it to the pc it ask me for atx drivers wich ive already installed, but now i dont know what to do.
First i know i have to wait for samfirware to release the firmware for my tab i suppose and then flash it win odin i guess.
Is this the correct way or should i send it inmeately to samsung´s support service.
The main problem for me is that i live abroad and it would be very difficult to send it to usa.
thank you.

Have u tried recovery mode? On the 7" you press and hold in vol-up while pressing and holding in power, release the buttons when you se Samsung logo...but maybe you don't se that at all? But if you can enter recovery try a factory reset, it will be wiped.
Are you sure its off? maybe it has hanged and stopped responding to input. Try to hold in power button several secounds to force power off.
btw you should post questions in q&a...

why do people keep on posting at the wrong thread? we need moderators intervention here.
all of these done, no signal from the table, with power + volume nothing at all, and holding power does nothing, no logo appears, always blackscreened. Sorry to post in this forum but as i saw how to unbrick tutorial here i though it was the correct place. Beg administrator to move to correct one

If you have provided this info in the first post i wouldn't have bother to suggest things that you already have tried.
I guess there is no battery animation when you put the changer in?
If so i believe you have a genuine brick.
But it is a bit strange your pc reacts when you plug it in tho...
Did all this happen without you flashing anything thru odin or cwm?
You just turned it off and then i won't start anymore?
One thing i would try is to remove the battery and put it in again, but will for sure void any warranty.
Read this "coma brick" did you charge with ac for several hours?

Never tried to do anything with the tab. Just load apk and nothing more. I charged it for several hours with two different charges and Pluged into Pc. Nothing works. I suppose it is really broken but what its strange is that Pc recognizes it
i think the nearest Samsung service Center will solve this for you . i advice you to check with them
note : they will think that you flashed something , even though you didn't . but its ok if you still under the warranty , maybe it takes 3 weeks to 4 though
if you hold vol down and power, can you get into download mode? it's an android dude with a shovel. if you can do that, then search the forums for your specific hardware files, and use heimdall or odin to flash them.
No way it doesnt start anything only black window. No logo no shovel nothing at all. Tried all the combinations and the only thing I can do is connect it to the Pc and it ask me for apx drivers which I've already installed but nothing to do with it. Also the firmware at samfirmware won't be available till next week, then I'll try to reflash if it is possible. About the service here in Spain they don't want even touch it, told me to send it to USA cos they say they can't get usa firmware and they only take care of product bought in Spain it stinks. And I offered the guy to pay for it even out of warranty but they don't want to mess with it. There's another guy in other forum that has the same problem with same tab. But still find no solution. I should have bought a ****... iPad at least if it crashes can be recovered easily. If this is a software problem I would have to send it there several times which is very expensive
How long have you held the power button? I had a similar issue this morning on my p1010 and I just held the.power button for maybe a minute and it restarted. It takes a long time when holding the button.
I'm new to the tab so don't shoot me if this is something you already tried.

Can anyone one expert tell me if the solution on this post will work for me
I think you have a dead screen or lcd inverter, or dead back light. Definetely a warranty issue.
Take the tab out in bright sun and try the power buttons - maybe you can see the screen change?
Same Thing
I had the same thing happen.
No combination of buttons seems to bring life to the tablet. i'm going to download the driver now and see if I can get into adb to try to reset it.
I was watching a video, the video got really fuzzy, then the tablet froze up. I held down power to power it down and that is the last time it was on. Never flashed or rooted.

i´ve got my brand new galaxy tab P7510 and after two day and swiching it down, black screen appears. Cant get it to start and i tried to charge it and wait for several hour but nothing happens. When i connect it to the pc it ask me for atx drivers wich ive already installed, but now i dont know what to do.
First i know i have to wait for samfirware to release the firmware for my tab i suppose and then flash it win odin i guess.
Is this the correct way or should i send it inmeately to samsung´s support service.
The main problem for me is that i live abroad and it would be very difficult to send it to usa.
thank you.
