Stuck mith mu GNote - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I' in trouble with my note. It stucks at samsung logo animation and i cant make it boot to ics anymore (i'm on stock 4.03 ics rom)
This is what happend : i played/bench beetween gl_notecore kernel v9.x/v10.x and chainfire 3D driver install/uninstall, all was fine and suddenly my phone freezed at ics homescreen after a soft reboot (OC or whatever make it freezed).
So i hard reboot it by pressing power button 10 sec, and now, it dont full boot anymore.
I tried to flashed many kernel through cwm onboard kernel stuff (notecore/speedmod..), tried wipe cache, tried to flash stock rom (N7000XXLQ3_N7000XXLPT_N7000XEFLP1_HOME.tar.md5) throught odin but result is same. Phone is indefinitly show samsung animation logo screen without finally boot into ics.
I dont know if chainfire 3d driver is the guilty one but fresh rom flash dont unbrick it ?
What's my solution now ? i didnt tried to full wipe before flashing stock rom and i'd prefer not. but...
thanks for your help :good:

To be on safe side i would try to flash a stock gb rom first then move to ics later. Flash gb stock from dr.ketan thread then go into recovery and wipe ....then it should boot.

Download a GB Rom from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997
Flash it using PC Odin. If your phone stuck at bootscreen logo or you face any issues do a Wipe by going to recovery mode. (GB Kernels are safe to Wipe)
Now Check whether the issue is still there or not.

Gb flashed successfully, and phone boot normally.
But GB soft reboot a lot. Seems flashing gb over ics without a wipe make a mess in the rom =)
Going to wipe and flash ics back.
Tanks a lot !

Remember not to WIPE on ICS Stock Kernel. When you want to flash on Stock ICS remember to flash a safe kernel first like notecore/hardcore/etc

No matter, i'm aware of MMC_CAP_ERASE brick of the death
I will do like i did before. flashing notecore kernel through odin and triangle away
Edit : oh wait.. and i'll never install chainfire 3d again

[Q] Stuck at "Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000" Bootscreen

Hi,
after flashing from TeamRocket ICS 1.3b (which worked very well for me) to MIUI 4 Note v8 to get Livewings Edition ( I used cwm for that, but did all wipes properly) I stuck at the Logo mentioned in the threadtitle.
The problem is now: I cant get out of this.
cwm works fine, but I cant start any Rom. Tried to flash several ones, but I still keep stucking...
Has someone an idea ?

Use the above method i mentioned. It should work.
If nothing works then flash any rootable rom via PC Odin and you will be back to stock and then can root again and flash any other rom of your choice! Check out Dr Ketan's guide in the stickies post in development section of note forum !
got also the same predicament, just stuck in Samsung Galaxy N7000 bootup logo screen after I went to the recovery mode to format/system, format/cache..
I tried to follow the instructions actually on how to upgrade my CheckRom RevoHd v5 to Version 6...
The instructions were to format /system and format /cache... then copy the ROM to a new folder in the internal SD card...
Now the question is.. how can I copy the CheckRom RevoHD version 6.zip if I can't even boot back in recovery mode..
when I booted back.. it just stucks on that bootup logo screen.. ..
Bro how much time did you wait ? I was having the same problem! At least thats what i used to think... But turns out that the first boot takes REALLY long... took me approx 25 mins with rocketrom v22

to boot in recovery press and hold volume up home button and power button all at same time in any screen and keep pressing till the time the samsung logo again shows up. Then leave the buttons...it should now boot in recovery.

I already did that sir but It would really not open up recovery mode. I can however go to Download mode(with the Volume down) but what good is that anyway, right?
anyway, I have already fix my issue by reflashing it back via PC Odin...
I guess its either the instructions of flashing to the new version of CheckRom RevoHd v.6 is pretty much vague (though I really followed it to a tee) or simply the instructions are not that just well emphasized...
can you direct me to the rom you flashed via odin?
I tried flashing stock rom but i'm still in bootloop

Download any of the directly rootable rom from Dr Ketan's guide here- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997
and flash via PC odin !
Thanks, i'm out of bootloop, but i now i have the null keyboard error
edit solved: forgot to flash csc aswell
see my sig
what you need now to download a GB custom kernel then flash it with the current cwm: then do the following to get it right and rooted ics
1-right after flash the GB kernel go to advance and then reboot recovery.
2-boot into the new recovery flash any custom rom like darkynote.
3-bootup get mobile odin and get the chainfire repack ics LP1.
4-start mobile odin flash the chainfire repack and make sure all the boxes are ticked and wipe data also ticked.
5-after the flash is done it will reboot auto in to cwm flash the miui and all is done.
this log steps I'm telling you to follow so you won't encounter the banry count and yellow triangle.

Hi all. I also have the same problem. Initially I'm using LiquidSmooth rom. And then I went to Criskelo rom to try the rom...and didn't like it. And I tried to restore to LiquidSmooth and failed. Now I'm stuck in bootloader and when I try to flash anything on CWM, it hangs. Even if I leave it for awhile on the menu, it'll hang too. What should I do?
Stuck on Samsung Startup Screen
I tried various Stock Roms, but unable to go ahead of Samsung bootcreen. I can get into recovery menu & also download screen, so I assume my Note is not bricked. However I tried to flash old directly rootable GB ROM, ICS ROM, Latest GB ROM(Wipe) but nothing works. While flashing latest GB ROM "N7000XXLC1 (Wipe)" ODIN was stuck in data.fs, so flash was incomplete, In other ROMS flash was complete but I was stuck on Startup screen. I tried flashing "Q1_20110914_16GB.pit" file also but no luck. I also flashed Abyss Note Kernel 3.9 & 4.2 in ICS ROM, but I don't know how to flash this kernel in GB ROM as I'm unable to get into external memory card where I transferred kernel zip file. Please help me save my Note.

[Q] [HELP] bricked phone? how to recover?

hello, I installed [ROM][ICS] KingDroid ICS NoteMania Edition v2.0 and it worked, then I did a nandroid backup and after I installed the S3 optional MOD.
The phone worked fine for some days, then I wanted to delete the S3 MOD so I did a nandroid restore from the previous backup, something went wrong during restoring. So I tried to flash the ROM again from SDcard, I did a dalvik cache wipe and a cache wipe and after I tried to reflash the kingdroid rom from recovery, it flashed the kernel and hung during MODEM flashing.
Now when I turn on the phone it hangs on galaxy note logo.
How can I solve this situation? Go back to GB? How? PC ODIN?
Thanks
Please read the thread before doing anything. NEVER EVER RESTORE A NANDROID BACKUP FROM ICS KERNELS. I think you just did that and now you are a part of Superbrick family. I think just read threads about how to revive your bricked note and follow the procedure or Samsung service is the only way out
Check if your phone enters download mode ( power+home+volume down ). If so - you're not bricked and can flash GB stock rom with ODIN.

It enters in download mode after warning me about the danger of flashign a custom os. So I canm proceed to flash a stock GB rom? N7000XILB1 ?
As you said your phone hangs on Samsung screen. When this thing happened first time with me i was too scared.
Dont panic. So you can go to download/Recovery mode. Flash a stok GB ROM. It worked for me. Dont worry about warning.
See Dr. Ketan's Thread for step by step guide. Carefully follow his instructions.
Best of luck..

Do I need to replace the pit first? I think the kingdroid rom replaced the pit and created new different partitions, so if I put the stock rom won't it need the original pit? I'm lost on that.
..To be honest I go back and forth from GB to ICS to CM9 without any problems (maybe I'm one of the lucky guy and maybe at certain point I will brick as well!)...BUT what I do (when from ICS I move to GB) is to pass ALWAYS through AbyssNote Kernel 4.2.
So hoping you have a GB previous nandroid backup AND you can still enter in recovery modified mode, I would suggest the following steps
1. enter in recovery mode
2. flash the Abyss Kernel by choosing the zip
3. WITHOUT reboot the phone > go Advanced
4. re-boot recovery
5. once in Abyss kernel> factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache
6. restore
7. choose GB backup
8. start restoring
Before learning about Abyss, I had very similar soft-brick like your one....but I easly managed it with the above method
Hope it helps
so, it was not super bricked. I flashed the pit and then Gb without any problem. now it's working.
Good deal, just make sure you read the stickies next time and don't restore nandroid backups in CWM (Use abyss kernel).
There's plenty of safe kernels now that have disabled the brick bug as a workaround though. If you want stock ICS, flash Franco or Speedmod kernels. If you want a CM9 rom, there's plenty of variations. There's also an aokp rom.

Were you rooted on the base Android ROM? Was it GB? Whatever it was, first flash a standard GB using PC ODIN and then root it and then try a new ROM. You can get stock GB ROMs here

Flash stock GingerBread rom from PC odin and root it . Else you can flash pre rooted GB roms like Checkrom, rocketrom etc etc etc from the whichever ICS rom you are currenntly on .This is how I flash Gingerbread rom from EMMC bug infected ICS rom , flash abyss kernel 3.9 and the reboot recovery into abyss kernel 3.9 and then wipe data , cache and dalvik cache and then flash CheckRom Revo HD V6 and reboot your phone.
Once your phone is successfully running GB rom with proper root and clockworkmod recovery , go to clockworkmod recovery and wipe data , cache , dalvik cache and flash paranoid android directly ( dont flash abyss kernel or any other kernel , GB rom with CF root kernel or whichever kernel the pre-rooted GB roms like checkrom and rocketrom come with ) , and finally after flashing wipe data , cache and dalvik cache . You will boot paranoid android properly .
I dont want you to brick your phone , so explained the whole process from gingerbread rom installation

Thanx Friend,
I have flashed b4 from stock ICS kernal to Anidroid ROM, but now that is not the real problem, now i am on stock GB Rom, which i have installed via Odin, Kindly check http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1783625 this thread which i have just started, i hope you will understand my problem by looking to this thread, also as i am on GB kernal right now, without rooted, so still i dont need to afraid of EMMC brick bug (I assume it is problem with stock ICS kernals.).
And I had screwed my galaxy bote and had hard bricked my phone , it was gone mate , my phone had almost seem its last days , but i did save it and gave it a new life . Well here is what happened ( again in detail ) - I was KingDroid V2 rom , even when i knew all the ics roms at that time had emmc brick bug , I was fool enough to do a data wipe :crying: , and **** !!!! my phone did boot any rom , i was not even able to flash any rom , not even stock unrooted samsung roms via pc odin . I couldnt even get my phone into recovery mode !!!!!! The only thing that was working on my phone was the download mode !! Thank god !!!!:fingers-crossed: . I tried to re-partition using the original 16GB pit file( as i have 16GB Galaxy note N7000 ) but it was in vain. And then I read some post in XDA developers which mentioned how to RE-ARRANGE the partition.
[ Well I think you don't know what happens when you do a data wipe with emmc bug infected kernel ???? Right ? well here goes an explaination fro that , (i love explaining things to others :cyclops In simple words when you do a data wipe on an EMMC bug infected kernel a part of your internal SD card gets infected , I mean it becomes non-functional , it doesn't respond to read /write commands issued over that sector of internal SD ]
so out of my 16GB internal memory , memory sectors from 1049MB to 2200MB had got corrupted( found it by trial and error method ) , i couldn't use them anymore , so using the adb from the android platform tools , I edited the partitions and shifted the partition corresponding to 1049 MB to 2200MB, and then flashed abyss note kernel and then checkrom revo HD :fingers-crossed: . Viola my phone booted , I had got over the hard brick , but my internal storage had reduced to 10 Gb instead of 11 Gb due to unresponsive sectors in internal memory !!!
Next i did a reset of the flash counter and removed the yellow triangle and flashed the stock gingerbread rom (Indian version , where I am from ) via pc odin and it got stucj at FactoryFS stage , as expected !!!! . Next I handed it to Samsung service center and just told them that i was trying to update to ICS via kies and it got stuck . After few days they replaced my phone's motherboard for free :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
My friend i think your prob started while flashing paranoid rom u said that after flashing rom u made a full wipe... so i think u lost your root... just an idea
İf u can find a prerooted gb rom or u can root your gb rom u can flash paranoid rom

Hi harris,
Can you flash gb thru stock odin? of course you can... is it safe? yes it is.
I think the rule of law in flashing any custom roms, just to be in a safe side, is to always downgrade first to stock GB and work your way up in flashing whatever custom rom you would like to flash your phone to.
By the way, don't forget to wipe data once your already in stock GB (before upgrading again to whatever custom rom your going to flash)

sounds like you just need to flash a kernel, i have had this issue before something with the kernel screws up and doesnt boot
Just put your phone in download mode and flash a custom kernel via pcodin. That will be okay. or if its not you have to flash a GB rom using PC Odin. Remember to do wipes after flash

after flashing a safe kernel or after you gone to GB (whichever is the case),yes you can go to CWM and wipe data from there.
Flash prerooted gb rom and wipe cache,delvic cache n data
Not necessary immidiately wipe, most probably you will face force closes on bootup.after flash, nothing to worrt, it will b solved with wipes.
Once evrything fine.after wipe, you can proceed to next step with cwm if you want to flash.custom rom, or with mobile odin if you want to flash stock ROM.

Bricked I9000, but have download mode. It got trickier than I thought.

Hi,
I think I bricked my phone very well. I used Odin to put some GB Kernel in order to be able to upgrade to JB. Later I got into recovery mode and cleaned cache and many other things, but was unable to wipe data\factory reset, from there it all went down. I tried fixing it using this guide, but it didn't help. I still can get into download mode, though. And sometimes even into recovery, but it gives me tones of errors.
What can I do? How do I fix it now???
Thanks in advance!
Fix:
Try to flash a stock GB rom with Odin.
Kernel/ Upgrade to JB
After that flash a rooted kernel. Try CF-Root or Semaphore Kernel.

flash rom first, find ur own firmware, then flash rom using odin, if ur pet kernel first, there will be no rom to reset.

Hi,
got one problem. hope im typing in right section.
Flashed my I9000 to 2.3.6 JVU plus CF-Root. Minutes later ive tried to flash Gamerzrom via CWM.
(done a full wipe / factory reset, wiped caches etc.).
After that Phone reboots and is stuck in a bootloop containing the Semaphore screen and i cannot
enter CWM again. I have to reinstall stock rom first and then root it again.
Dunno what im doing wrong at that point; am i using wrong kernel?
thanks in advance
that gamerzrom...2.3 or 4.2?
if u wanna flash to 4.x, need to flash cm9 first.flash twice, from 2.3 to cm9 to cm10.dont do shortcut please...
cm9 need to flash twice, bootloop will occur on first flash,use 3 button combo to go back to recovery,its da matter of releasing da 3 button,release it rite after u see da white sgs,if still cant, flash back firmware n redo step.
after flashing cm9, do not reboot,flash cm10 or gamerzrom,first flash will error,flash it back again n then reboot, do wipe everything except sd when in 2.3, and please...read first before asking
