I made a wipe data/factory reset while on CWM Touch (I didn't know about the issues yet) and, of course, it didn't work. So now, everytime I try and flash an Odin ROM (because it doesn't work with the recovery), it gets stuck at data.img/datafs so there's no way I can boot my phone although it does have recovery, download and it gets to the Samsung bootscreen (I flashed a stock ROM).
Has anyone got any ideas on how to fix this? Thanks
Tried clearing cache and data while on recovery? Which rom/kernel are you on?

I was on AOSP ICS v04 with the infamous AbyssNote 1.2 kernel (but I don't have the same factoryfs problem as the others) with Touch CWM (that's where the problem comes from I believe) and the only problem is that neither Odin nor CWM can access the /data partition. So a wipe doesn't work.
I fear the nearest Samsung service is the way to go for you, mate. Your data partition is corrupted beyond repair.
Believe me, the guys affected with Angelom 1.2 had tried everything, including jigging, jtagging and nothing helped unbrick their phones. It looks like replacing the motherboard is the only solution.
Sorry to have to tell you this.

Are you sure? Even though it's never stuck at factoryfs and it only bootloops? Because the problem is I have no service center I can go to so sending it via La Poste (in France) isn't exactly what I'd call safe... Or is there a way to send iut directly to Samsung and get a new one?
Up.............
Since it looks like a partition problem - have you tried using stock .pit file and repartition with ODIN ?

Yes I did. Well I think imma have to send it to a samsung repair center. How long does it take to get a new Note?
Hi, I had a similar problem and here's what I did. I flashed a stock rom (doesn't have datafs so it worked fine) then it rebooted into recovery which complained about /data partition. So I did wipe data and rebooted.
Hope this helps.

According to warranty agreement:
"Repairs are done as fast as possible, but within 14 days time."
no id agree with what the guys have told you, looks like a service center job, did you just flash this recently or were you one of the users who flashed it weeks back, and youve only just attempted a wipe now??
Just out of curiosity, if people have this kernel installed, can they flash to a diff kernel b4 trying a wipe, or will that not work.

You're fine if you don't do any wipes prior to flashing another kernel. However, wipe anything and it's curtains.

Too late ^^ I sent it to a repair center.. But I don't think it would have worked. I already did a wipe on a tock rom with stock recovery and it worked but the phone still couldn't boot.

The problem is that in France the repair centers have an agreement with Samsung but they're not directly related to Samsung so do you think it'll only be 14 days (even though I might neeed a new mobo or a new phone)?
Not sure how youre postal system works there but make sure you get recorded delivery or france similar so you have proof of posting etc.
Also considering the issue ive read most times lads have had a quick turn around, but who knows, depends how fast samsung receive it, i would suggest UP TO 2 weeks, more likely a week, but then it me be 2 week, depends what they have to do to repair it.
I recently took a phone to the o2 shop to be repaired, i received it back via post 4 days later, that was really fast, and im quite lucky here that theres an abundance of walk in repair centres around the uk, it just made me wonder if there one close to you and would it be economical to take it in person, samsung repair shop where i live if ya take your phone in by hand theyll usually say come back in a couple of hours and then they fix it there and then, that would be better for you because you arent messing around with posting then, i know a lot of countries guys dont have that option but i would have thought france and germany would be similar to the uk as they are both quite large mobile manufacturing countries so my fingers are crossed for you that you can find a quick solution.
No idea mate, but you shouldn't wait more than 2 weeks. The repair will take one hour probably, the rest is testing, posting, filling papers etc.
You'll probably have it back after 1 week or so. So let's hope you'll received it fixed as soon as possible.

what stock rom? which version you used?
I have a note here...its bricked, the owner tried flashing angelrom ICS, and bricked it.
It gets stuck when it starts writing factoryfs.img.
I have tried properly repartitioning it, installed a stock bootloader from a gt-n7000 stock rom, and that at least allowed me to get back into android system recovery. I wiped the data and cache and tried again.
I tried a stock rom that had multiple parts, and one that had the individual parts. I can flash all of the individual parts successfully but the PDA.
Anybody encounter this, and know a fix? I would really appreciate any tips or suggestions.
Just wanted to give some more information. I followed Ketan's guide to flash to stock rom, and tried multiple stock roms with the same results.
So I also tried repartioning with the proper pit file (the 16gb n7000) and that didn't work.
The only bootloader I could seem to find (because that was the next logical step to me) was "KERNEL_N7000XXKJ1_CL627135_REV02_eng_mid_ship.tar.md5" , would that be compatible with all stock roms or just a specific one?
I am sorry bro. You fried your flash drive, there is no way to revive it. The motherboard has to be replaced.
There isn't anything one can do if you flashed that kernel. If you have warranty head to Samsung service.
Yep, anilisanil is right. People who had found themselves in the same predicament tried absolutely everything, but there was no cure whatsoever. Data partition corrupted beyond repair, not even JTAG could help.
Motherboard replacement is the only thing that can be done.

How the duck is that physically possible? What an enormous embarrassment for angelom. I doubt hell ever post another kernel again...

Yeah...I figured it was beyond hope after reading through a lot of the threads....
I did reset the counter with a jig, and took away the yellow triangle...but I was told samsung won't warranty this model in the USA.
Thanks for your replies!
Just a little query. Whats the actual physics behind this? Like how can some software fry the drive? Just a little interested and wondered how it actually physically happened. Because my assumption before all this was that it cant be truly completely bricked (obviously i was wrong). but wondering how!

I've just got my processor replaced by Samsung. Apparently according to the technician the processor is corrupted. Mine me it cost me almost USD 250 to replace it because the phone has been rooted so its not covered under warranty. I've rooted my phone, flash some kernels (Abyss and latest Franco Kernel) a few times and changed several ROMS (Kingdroid, ROCKETROM). I've no idea how to processor can be corrupted but according to the technician because when i rooted it i deleted some files cause the processor settings to malfunction and therefore processor got corrupted. I' pretty sure i did not deleted any files from the root folders. Can someone please explain to me the truth behind what the technician said. I believe its a whole lot of gibberish. I believe i should be able to change ROMS and Kernels as i please but i really don't want to spent another USD 250 to replace another processor after i changed ROMS or Kernels. Please advise.

If you have ever flashed a ICS rom which didn't have a safe kernel and made a factory reset,there are chances of your getting super bricked.As to confirm that,switch on your phone and see if it gets past the splash screen.If doesn't,its 50% confirmed.
Next is to boot into download mode and flash some rom with Odin.If it gets stuck at factoryfs,its confirmed.Please do note that it may take 10mins to flash factoryfs.If it take longer than 15mins,I'm sorry you have super bricked.
There are guides in general section to revive it.you could refer that if you need

corrupt processor.. ? not sure what he meant by that... u should have asked to give the more info as in if it was an emmc chip issue...
if that was the case possibly a wipe on stock kernel mite have caused it and they mite have changed the motherboard.. which costs around that kinda money if not under warranty.
When i asked him all he said "u rooted ur phone. You could have erase some processor setting files..so processor malfunction therefor corrupted so no warranty". He did gave me back the motherboard though. of course since the motherboard and processor is a single piece therefore the replace it. But till now i still dont know how that happens or what i did might ha e lead to this when i asked the tech he said dont root your and i was lile "duh"
hmmm... not root an android.., its like keeping all the goodies in a locked room... but personally i have not encountered any such problem till now,,, i have unrooted and rooted the phone so many times..
may be a bad move mite have caused it
I guess you had done a wipe on an unsafe kernel which lead to a super brick
I too had the same experience but luckily got it replaced under warranty
He he .. U lucky guy.

After days of searching and googling i believe like some more experienced users here said i might have caught the bug. But what i dont understand is i've also reflash the kernel to Abyss 4.2 kernel that changed my initial affected Kingdroid Rom to Rocketrom in hope to solve the problem, but unfortunately that didnt work. So basically if so unfortunately it happens to me in the future again, i guess ill just have to unroot and rrset the.binary counter..but by then the warranty might have expired already.

Nope never oc my processor n ive always flash kernel from normal odin. Dont know how thos affected the emmc bug
Your technician is partly credible when he said you fried your procie....
perhaps he wasn't keenly elaborating it but he may have meant it to be your eMMC chip on your Note.
There are myriads of discussions already all over our beloved Note's forum regarding the eMMC chip which has most high end experts believe to be a faulty chip case and so henceforth, this chip would be toasted when a right scenario or pre-conditions are met thereof,, would trigger the superbrick bug.
Your tech guy might not be good in the right explanation of words.. but he is partly good in saying your 'procs' were fried... What I don't agree on him was that it was because 'you root' your phone... rooting does not in anyway enable the eMMc bug.... it is thru using an unsafe kernel and doing a full wipe of your phone that triggers it. Some are lucky they're not bitten first time when doing the wipe (with an unsafe kernel), few are not that lucky and the minute they wipe their device, instantaneously the bug would be triggered rendering their Note unbootable or stuck at data.img or factoryfs.img.

I have a super-bricked note too. What if I go to them with my counter reset? Will they refuse to replace my motherboard for free?
Well it depends entirely on the discretion of your SSC and the tech handling it. Normally most techs are not that stingy to repair your Note just as long as they've check your warranty and is satisfied that you really did not tinkered your phone. Just act and answer sheeply to them that you've bricked while upgrading thru Kies.
Word of advice. Never ever give yourself away... Never ever instigate in anyway to tell them first hand that you've rooted already your phone or have flashed any custom roms on it. They might think otherwise of voiding your warranty if you blurt them what you really did to your phone. Act and think plausibly.
Kapish? Ok..good.

@OP
don't fret, you'll get your polished Note soon with a brand new mobo inside... So it's all good bud.
there is no way to fire your processor in software level, may be oc'ng it may hurt it, but any modification in software will not affect the processor by any mean, he meant the emmc chip for sure, any way as long as you are using safe kernel, and reading before flashing, you are safe to go, and i think your processor is safe as far as you don't overclock it too much.
Yes, you read correct, I want to hard brick my phone not unbrick it but at the same time not leave traces of evidence of tampering. An unusual request it may be, but I have tried everything but just cannot get the damn thing to brick. I wanted to brick it and then experiment on possible ways to unbrick it. And then if all failed, I was going to send it back to Samsung to see if they find any traces of deliberate tampering. Come on geniuses...I know you're out there somewhere

if you use rom manager samsung will not find out anything
if you flash other devices rom like acei on ace then it might brick but not for 100% sure but there is lots and lots of change that it will brick since it uses other flash scripts and binarys

I don't know about the traces. But the only way to revive it is JTAG or replacement motherboard.

Next time, I'd rather make a backup in CWM and then restore it from another Recovery. What this does is delete the boot.img, so now your phone can't do anything and Samsung can't get any logs etc. from the device.
Also REMEMBER! Play dumb when taking it to the Samsung store! Don't mention Roms etc..

Or rename a text file to boot.img and flash it as a ROM. This gives a totally faulty ROM.

Wow. No wonder phone manufacturer doesn't honor warranty nowadays.
Seriously if u want to do such scam u should do it quietly without creating thread asking howto do so.
This is nice.... You can brick your phone in the last month of you year warranty and get a new phone/motherboard
Once my friends phone switched off suddenly... Non rooted stock
It happened suddenly and also out of warranty
She had to pay 5k to the Samsung people to get it repaired... And the plus point she got 14GB internal memory with the new motherboard
Her phone was the Samsung galaxy S i9000
it would've been done in free if she had warranty
So maybe you might get the GT S5830i.. The new version mother board or something
Best of luck

I would have done it quietly if I didn't need the help. Duh! Besides, I doubt this is the reason why they don't honour warranty. I think it is more to do with that they are greedy corporate companies who would rather save at any cost irrespective of whose fault it is. I mean why should they penalise someone because of something someone else done? After all you are all paying customers. They scam people everyday and no one complains. I guess people only complain when it happens to them. You can buy a new phone and have it go faulty within 2 months. Do you think you can get a new phone under warranty from them? No it will be a refurbished one and doesn't mater how much you scream and shout for a new one, they don't care. A neither do I.

No, I think it is the same motherboard. What I don't understand is, whether it is the same motherboard they repaired or a replacement one, as this phone was initially locked to the Three network. I had it unlocked. So a new motherboard would have meant that the phone would be locked again. But when I received it back, it would still accept any sims.
I know this is a shot in the dark, but I would really be interested in hearing what people have to say.
I am finding that I am having issues with my Galaxy Note - the main problem being the phone getting stuck and the screen not turning on - needing a soft reset or at times, needing the battery to be taken out. This problem is despite what ever rom I am using - the issue is also with almost all kernels tried.
I did have superbrick issue and I have tried going back to the original rom with the pit method, however, no luck.
I can confirm that this is happening with ICS/GB/MUIU/AOKP roms... there seems to be no obvious solution...
Does anyone else have this problem?
What is the solution if any - its frustrating when the phone becomes stuck randomly.
Is there a rom/radio/kernel combination that's highly stable??
Your phone is probably accessing a corrupt part of your Emmc.
You will need to take out a larger part of memory using a modified pit.

Read up on super brick stickies and ics kernels before you go any further. Does indeed sound like you've damaged your Emmc and will need to repartition. Stock roms will likely not work anymore as you'll lose around 3gb of internal storage.
