After JTag. - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

well hi guys , i'v being like a month struggling to fix my Gnote with every possible way and with every acknowledge i'v learnt in XDA but so far i couldn't even come closer to repair my phone.
well i hard bricked my note (in purpose) so when i take it to samsung service they don't know what i'v done to my phone.
well i thought in malaysia they will accept the international warranty , well i was wrong after i broke the motherboard (software) they told me we can change the motherboard for you but your phone is not (LOCAL) they can't rewrite the bloody Serial number, till now i couldn't figure out what he means by (your phone is not LOCAL).
anyway i took my phone for repair shop to perform the Jtag and after the Jtag succeed i thought everything will be cool but its not , as the Jtag did not fix the Partition of my phone that causing me alooot of issues.
i accepted to repair it like that as i really miss my bloody phone , installed stock GB , ICS and my phone still like before i hard bricked is kinda laggy it turns off by itself , stuck alooot of times i'd to reboot it manually ( long hold power off ) and this thing is annoying me. if i'm in any CM9-10 my phone will function very normal.
my questions are :
1- does the Jtag perform the Re-Partition for my phone ( because of what i saw it doesn't perform it all ).
2- is there anyway to use stock pit file without stuck-ing- in Factory.img in odin.
i'v to use the patched pit file that eats 8GB from my phone and leave it in a messy functionality. (reboot , lags , stucks).
your help will be appreciated
thanks in advance.
for those who's going to ask me what i did to my phone to become like this ( well i don't really remember ) it has being a month.
P.S don't come here and tell me read , look, search , because i'm well known about XDA .
cheers

You don't tell people how to help you or not.. Use the pit file method if that doesn't work and you can not get your mobo replaced either if you pay for it or for free then trash your phone get a new one and move on...
You said you bricked it on purpose and then say we can not ask what you did?...
You make no sense at all and that's why until now you have no answer..
Cheers

[Q] [help]Bricked? Help!

So this is the story:
I go back to stock with odin3. Everything went smooth and nice and there's a green colour in odin3 say pass!
But my phone stuck when it auto reboot. It wont boot up! And now only blank screen on my phone
I tried every combo trying to go into download mode but it never work : (
I have order my jig today, hopefully it can help me... if not i will have to send it to jtag i guess?
Any other solution anyone? Please help
Which odin used to flash it back to stock ? Were u on GB bootloaders ?
Did you flash the 3 button fix odin by chance?
Yea i was on GB boatloader... so i use the Odin3 3 button fix... that's the story... and im sure i did every step correctly and the Odin3 say pass... I just dont know why~~

Problem is 3 button fix only contains 1 bootloader, so right now has a GB primary bootloader and a froyo secondary. You hard bricked your phone. Unless you can get samsung to replace is your only other option is Jtag (mobiletechvideos.com offers that service for $50? I think)
Thanks for helping!! I will send for jtag service...
sss

The problem is to solder the captivate is a real pain in the but. The solder points are extremely small. I know MobileTechVideos.com offers Jtag services and from what I hear has a very good success on it. But I've never needed his services so im not 1st hand experience.
I have over a 99% success rate (< actual rate) on the Captivate...

[Q] soft bricked ! maybe...

Hello there,
I just bought a galaxy note <well a week ago> and now i ended up soft bricking it.
here's how i did it -
I went to my friends place thinking of rooting my phone while he told me to add a custom rom to it . well since he was experienced i let him do it . he added a firmware of i9200(chinese ). well it worked now i found some chinese system applications that i didn't need and while searching on net how to do it i found a firmware of n7000 ics online and decided to flash it in. since i was at home i thought i would be able to do it myself and did what i shouldn't have done. i followed every step they said online and started the downloading of the rom but unfortunately when pc odin was at it's end i mean the end of downloading i actually disconnected the cable ( what the f*** was i thinking) . now i tried to reinstall the same rom but couldn't - pc odin always showed setting up connection or something like this and then stalled for hours ... i thought of flashing some other rom but it didn't - same thing <stalling for hours> . Now what should i do??? help me - maybe i can go to samsung customer care service and ask them to reset my phone but since the usb debugging was on last time when i turned my phone off , kies might not do the job . can u suggest me a way.
one more thing i can't flash stock rom into it and <i am dumb> i didn't backed up my stock rom.
p.s. my flash count is 2 . i can't load my phone into recovery mode but can into download mode and can't do it with a jig (am from india plus i am a little low on technical know how).
i can't hard reset it either. a suitable help would be appreciated ,pls

I have no experience with this, but I did keep this video link on how to put a bricked Samsung into download mode just in case I needed it. The usb jig is the same for both the captivate and the Note from what I have read:
http://androidforums.com/captivate-...ung-captivate-usb-jig-video-start-finish.html
If you are able to enter download mode then Just try with different version of PC Odin , like V1.83, V1.85, V1.87. and do not worry about Stock ROM you can always download it from below link.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1329360
thankyou guys but i can't use jig since i can't buy it nor am i capable of making one.
Rajan , bro my problem is something different. the roms i am trying to insert in my phone was via the odin i used earlier to flash my first rom. and it went successfully . but last time the second rom i inserted was interrupted during download and am not able to add anymore of them. now i have talked to samsung care and they told me to bring my phone along with the bill maybe they can do it. even though my warranty is done for, but i think i can believe them . yet if there are any other suggestions pls tell me or should i give it to samsung care. I really don't wanna keep my phone rooted so i have no problem flashing stock but it's not happening. CAN KIES HELP?

Dont take it service centre.If you do so also dont say them you flashed custom rom.Then they wont fix it under warranty.Dont worry now.
Try different usb ports,uninstalling drivers and reinstalling it and try again.And as you are noob I recommend not to flash ICS customs at the moment.Stay with GB
I say go to your friend first who rooted your phone then ask him to try the various methods given in the forum recovering from softbrick.
i have read in some other websites that i will need a pit file to restore my phone + the rom file while checking repartition and auto time fe: reset in odin 1.83 then maybe i will be able to return back to gb . do u think this is ok for me to do .
p.s i live in chandigarh while my friend has moved to gurgaon so no chance to go to his place. and i have talked to customer care and told them everything. they told me to take the phone to service centre and they will help me.
now tell me what are my options!?

wait . what? what is this red pill and all .. i think you can save me but i would liike you to brief me about the procedure plus i read this - i need a (wipe) rom to be able to reflash my rom or something like this .
p.s i am still downloading my firmware ...
but would be better if i get the info i need before hand!
dude.. don't panic... I don't think ur phone is dead... best is to buy a jig... try on eBay... I got it for 200rs in eBay... I don't think that's a big deal for any one with a note .. I bought it even before experimenting because I thought some thing like this might happen....
its safest way to remove the triangle and get into recovery mode... as somebody else suggested flashing red pill also works ... search in development section for abyss kernel... ull find it...

its a kernel with a custom recovery.Its like CWM(Clock Work Mod).You could find it in the development section.Download the kernel.Could you get into recovery mode by turning off the phone,holding "vol up+home button+powerbutton"?

wenn connecting to Kies at firmware Kies says something like LC1. lb2 (XXX) as product code? if so they have changed the board on the service center and they haven't activate the Pcode on your phone google "Pcode not active" you will find few posts till now only ppl from Germany had it who send their phones to service center via Saturn/Media Markt ist guess it was/is a technician you was sleeping on the seminare/briefing how to change the board on Note. hope it will help you if it is that try to replace your phone, had the XXX Pcode after service center got a replacement. after a month of arguing with the salesman.

Uninstall the Odin in your PC and install it again to see if it works.
i am pretty much sure that they didn't change the mother board. they must have added the firmware that's all as my mboard wasn't damaged at all , it was just that the battery failed when i gave it to samsung people that's why my phone overheated when they charged it and that's when the battery must have been destroyed maybe due to that overheating they must have thought to change mboard (but they didn't cause those engineers must have changed the battery prior to examining my phone for the problem). AND i didn't have pc odin on my THIS pc to start with. it was in my laptop and kies didn't even reckoned my phone there well that's why i installed kies on HERE . i guess service center people can update it the same way they installed this firmware here..... what do u suggest?
AND Braxos Pcode is active --- it's something :
GT-N7000ZBAINU
and no, the current firmware info kies shows is something like ---
N7000DDLC1/N7000ODDLC1/N7000DDLC1/N7000DDLC1(INU)
(now i think they have done something wrong - it's all n7000ddlc1 here. what is this? )
GUYS can u also tell me what does your firmware version shows (just for reference , pls do it!)
p.s my phone is still in warranty since they fixed my phone free of cost plus they also replaced the battery for free . before my phone was sent to service center my phone had a flash count of two yet they fixed it under warranty(yay!).And thank you everyone!
MY ADVICE TO NEWBIES----
If your phone is soft bricked and you don't know what to do and you think you will make the matter even worse then don't do anything to permanently brick it . you guys should go to service center , they might even fix it for u for free just like they did it for me!

Did I birck my Note trying to flask Paranoid Android ?

Ok....you have heard this many times before but Ill ask anyways in the event someone can help me.
I am a newbie to rooting although Ive had my Note for months.
This morning I rooted successfully .
I also dloaded clockwork mod and watched YouTube tutorials on it.
Then I thought id try flashing a new ROM and Paranoid Android looked the easiest. Just two files - the zip and the fix. So i downloaded them to my CD card and then booted from RomManager into recovery mode.
Here is where I truly stuffed am I am guessing.
First I went into the immediately available option of 'instal file form SD card" and tried loading both Paranoid Android rom files .
I got Signature not verified etc
So then I went a step further and went into the clockwork mod folder instead ( where all font is blue and it becomes a touch screen menu ) and both files were there also so I hit the Paranoid Android zip file and it seemed to be actually doing something so i thought you beauty ! Some white lines of text came out, it stalled for a few minutes and then the phone just turned off and that's the way it is. DOINK.
I cannot turn it on.
I cannot boot into recovery mode.
My pc doesn't recognize it as a drive.
Kies wont recognize it.
so I have two questions ;
A) Is it resuable ?
b) Of I cant do it will Samsung service center be able to re-load the OS or whatever or is the unit well and truly fried ?
thanks
You obviously did not read the OP since procedure is clearly explained. What you did is just nonesense.

you dont provide enough info..mainly exactly what rom and kernel you were on when you tried to flash Paranoid.
Maybe he should start writing in the correct forum (Q&A) and even better: read there first and find a lot of related threads and exact informations.

I flashed from the recent android 4.0.3. Asian version ( I am in Cambodia ) . I believe the mistake i possibly made was going in to CWM files in recovery mode and doing it from there ?
Anyways....its back with Samsung RC now so hopefully they can rectify back to normal . I hope they dont see all the root files etc in the SD card. This is Cambodia so I doubt they'll care.
They'll be fixing the screen i cracked a few weeks ago too. Dropped it and it chatter like a bullet hole. So....my note will be all minty when i get it back....albeit $180 later !!

Yes, i came from cambodia too, actually for that price over there it's quite expensive.
any way, good to know that some one from cambodia is using Galaxy Note, impressive!
EVERYONE is using the Note here. Especially the girls. They love it even though they can barely hang on to it
$180 is for the Screen only. I believe ill get the OS redone for free.

Yeah you really suck at following instructions since you didn't do anything correctly.
You saying it does not turn on is indeed unclear, since you mention right after "it does not enter into recovery mode". So if you made the distinction., one can wonder...
So if you can't turn it on at all, including download mode, your phone is hard brick and needs to go to RMA, and since it is not due to emmc bug obviously, rma can be refused by Samsung because if they investigate they'll see that you flashed a different recovery.
Sorry dude, it's just about how lucky you are now...

Here is the rub.
Samsung rang me yesterday and said the phone needs;
New Screen at $150
New motherboard at $150
New front camera at $25.
Ouch
However....
Apart from the cracked screen (which happened weeks ago) up until I rooted and then ****ed the phone with my atrocious attempt at flashing the new ROM....the phone was working with no worries at all.
Can I ask the techs here as I have no idea ;
Would the motherboard be a victim of the flashing attempt ? If so....I am in the wrong and will pay all monies. I am guessing it is directly related as the phone was fine until the flashing attempt. If not......would the shock from the fall weeks ago have caused a failure in the MB ? Or could that just not be related at all ?
Basically, I am wondering if i have a leg to stand on with trying to claim warranty on the MB ....When they contacted me yesterday there was no mention of the phone having been rooted " you have been a naughty boy !! ". Actually what they said was " you dropped your phone and now the motherboard is broken "
thanks

your phone its super bricked due to wiping the phone in an ics kernel and its all samsung fault for the brick bug but you could avoid that flashing abyss kernel before wiping your phone and yes brick bug fry your motherboard.
You just superbricked a Super Phone

[Q] Please help.

Okay, so i got a problem a big one.
Today i came home from my night shift, turn on my pc and the download for stock ics rom was done.
My phone was running miui and i thought i'll flash stock rom because of battery drain on miui.
So i put my Note in download mode, connect it to PC Odin, select PDA file and press flash.
Everything went well until the phone didn't want to power on. (that's because i had less than 15% when i flashed). But that was not the first time i did that, Uselessly i just leave my phone turned off so that battery can get a bit of juice. But today i was a bit to sleepy and i went to recovery mode and pressed wipe data. Before the wipe was done i remember brickbug .
Then i quickly turned the phone off and put it download mode tried to flash the same rom with odin 2times but no luck. On odin it goes fine but gets stuck at 1/4 or so.
So the third time i unplugged the cable and now my phone is saying: Frimware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select download mode in Kies & try again.
But i still can put my phone in to the download mode and odin does recognize it.
So can someone help me?
Is my phone totally bricked (dead main-borad), or semi-bricked (flash drive gone).
And if i take my phone to the official repair service i don't have any counter and it say's that is a original Samsung firmware instaled. Will they now if i go there and play stupid, like what is recovery mode? and tell them that that hapend when i tried to install official update over kies?
I will press THANKS button for any help.
Thank you in advance.
If it constantly stuck at factoryfs or data.img then likely you became victim of super brick bug (as positive hystory is you have wiped) in that case better go to service centre.
Ok.
Ok. Thank you for your response.
Will the service repair my phone under the warranty as the bug is known thing?
If you have a 0 flash counter and the phone cannot boot into system they probably will accept to repair it under warranty, I presume. They will not listen to your arguments about brick bug at all. The principal is they will accept if you have no trace of rooted phone or increased flash counter.
btw, if they do not accept warranty, there is still someway to revive your phone, although will loose some memory space. cheers.
Thanks!
Yes I've read about that. +/- 5gb of internal storage..
Now, that's a tough decision, if i go and take my phone to the service i can get a full repair or i can get no warranty. I mean i only have phone for about 1month now. So i have 23 months of warranty left.
If i go and sacrifice 5gb of storage, and in future something goes wrong, will they at the service know that or am i safe?
And what about if i do that and then take it to the service like, where are 5gb? isn't that a 16gb phone? If you know what do i mean.
I am fairly certain that the last argument of "where has 5gb gone" will not work. Just need to make sure you comply with the conditions for warranty to have it repaired under warranty.
If you revive it using repartition, in most case 3gb will be gone. In some case only 1gb loss but some other case it is even >5gb depend on how much damage has been done to your internal memory. Re-partition is reversible, though. Still, it looks like your phone still meet conditions for warranty if I read correctly. cheers.
You have warranty, claim it.

However i decided to take it to the service because i still have warranty.
But I'm concerned, i have a few questions for you guys!
1. Will they on the service know that the phone dose not have installed original rom from them (Open Europe rom) insted of that i did instaled rom from other mobile operator (I wanted to sell the phone). ??
2. If there is no flash counter, and triangle, they can not know that the phone was ever rooted, correct?
Thank you for your help! I will press the tnx button every time.

AFAIK it doesn't matter which region is on the phone, so long as it's not rooted warranty still valid.
Yes correct.
It's a good idea to claim warranty for this, only true fix atm.

[Q] Help on a brickd phone

Hey guys . I accidentally used Rom Manager on my Galaxy Ace and since Rom Manager is incompatible with Ace , it will brick your phone. So if you are reading this and didn't know , then now you know. Anyway , so I was an idiot yeah , but now I want to solve it . 1) I tried Odin , it kept being stuck at setup connection. I have Kies closed . 2)I can't boot at ALL . No Recovery mode no DOwnloading mode no nothing. 3)I don't want to go to the repair shop. 4)If there is really a way I can unbrick my phone without paying money , please share it with me I really need this help and would appreciate it Thank you
Please reply asap , I am really desperate for my items to be back but since I am rooted , I usd Gemini App Manager to force most of my apps to be moved to the SD Card . So if I have to do factory Reset I don't mind. But please help !!!
You can't fix it, if you don't go to the repair shop

Don't scare bro you'll need to repair it because is not only your roms problem. A half-bricked phone only needed to reflash or "odin" your phone will be repaired. But this time your phone's system part might damaged caused by the rom manager and you must go to the shop to repair. If that doesn't work you'll need to change one of the chip in your phone because it's damaged(The workers in the shop will ask you once they find out it's the chip's problem). Meh, just pay a bit of money and you'll get your phone back. Hope this helps!!! Next time becareful and not to brick your phone again.
1) Add Cement and build a house
2) Tell Samsung service centre it stopped working when you upgraded with kies- you know NOTHING about rooting ROMS the rest, just look nooby and sad
3) Get someone to do a JTAG repair on your ace.
4) Buy a RIFF JTAG box (more expensive than ace) and JTAG it yourself
sorry but they are really the only things you can do.
İf your phone doesn't go into downloadmod . Get someone to do Jtag.
By the way , you can try USB-JIG.İt may get your device into download mode.
Ok thank you so so much guys your replies are really appreciated , I guess I'll just bring it to the repair shop since I dk how to use the jtag or USB jig thing
Good, USB Jig doesn't work on ROM Manager brick, but they are nice for resetting flash count and going into download mode, you simply just plug it in the micro USB slot of your phone
if it is not connecting to download mode then u can't repair it by yourself, even samsung service center is helpless, because u have already void the terms and conditions by installing custom roms...

First you search: "How to unbrick Galaxy Ace in forum" and test it.
If not work, you have search in youtube, i remember have clip about this, need computer, cable and more.
But i think you return Samsung or Shop, you lost about 20$ for return Bootloader
Good luck to you.
