[Q] Soft Bricked N7000 - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was trying to install Ultimate_N7000_LSC_JB_4.1.2_v5.1 on non-rooted device.
After booting into Recovery and installing CWM, i tried Data wipe/Factory reset.
(Battery was 100%)
The screen switched of suddenly and now i am stuck.
Here are somethings i have tried:
1) Tried flashing N7000DDLRB_N7000ODDLR4_N7000DDLR1_HOME.tar.md5 using ODIN. Never goes beyond NAND flashing (Tried in Admin mode, with ODIN Mode)
2) Tried flashing cm-9.1.0-n7000 and had status 0 and status 7 error many times.
Most of the flashing methods mention : "wipe data/Factory reset". Whenever i do that, i get stuck in "Wiping Data... .Formatting /data"
I have tried "Fix permissions", it wont work.
I didnt take a ROM backup and now i really regret it.
Currently when i navigate using CWM i can see all my internal as well as external memory files. So, i guess my OS is gone and files are still there.
The Custom Rom Counter says: Yes (Count 4) in ODIN mode.
Can someone help ? Please i am desperate.

What rom you on before flashing?..GB or ICS?

ICS 4.0.4
I had not done any Modifications, rooting to my N7000 before yesterday.
Would like to go back to Any ROM.
Unrooted ROM (ICS 4.0.4), Leaked JB Rom, CM9, CM10. Any ROM. Just want to get my phone up and running

What error do you get when flashing with Odin?
Does it stop at "factoryfs.img"?
How did you install CSM on your stock Rom ICS 4.0.4?

Your "soft bricked" sounds more like "super bricked" to me.. Did you use CWM.zip to wipe?
Tapatalking on my n7000

Yes. I used CWM.zip.
But now that my phone is not working, how do know what is the firmware version?
(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1656635)
Can you tell me the exact file names i should use
PDA: CODE_N7000xxxxx_CL627135_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.m d5
PHONE: MODEM_N7000xxxxx_REV_05_CL1067428.tar.md5
CSC: GT-N7000-MULTI-CSC-Oxxxxx.tar.md5
What does xxxx stand for? I have the Serial No. of my phone. And have done normal OTA updates only.
Brought from flipkart in August (if it helps narrow down the xxxx)
Superbricked or soft, please help.
Just downloaded some CWM file (Sorry i searched a lot, i couldnt remember the source)
Here are the steps:
Flash it with Odin 1.85, (Click PDA, choose the file and press Start)
After this you will have Root on your phone.
Now you can go into CWM and flash the Rom.
1) Download Ultimate XXLSC Jelly Bean 4.1.2 custom ROM for Galaxy Note to the PC
2) Connect the device to PC using USB cable and transfer the downloaded ROM zip file to the phone's SD card
3) Unplug the USB cable from the phone and then turn it off
4) Enter into Recovery mode by switching on the phone while pressing and holding Volume Up, Home and Power buttons together
5) In CWM Recovery, perform a full data wipe
Here is where it suddenly stopped and the screen went blank. (I am double sure battery was 100%)
Thanks for the prompt replies

If you have warranty then claim it.. Super brick means that the emmc chip it's burned.. There's some methods to get it to partially work but you lose around 3Gb of memory and generally you can not use TW roms.. Or at least stock TW.. Not to mention the random reboots and freezes..
So most likely if you don't have warranty then use the pit file method or pay for a motherboard replacement..
Tapatalking on my n7000

Thanks for the suggestion.
I managed to flash 4.0.3 ROM and stock Kernel and it somehow worked. (did too many things)
Here's the current status: Running 4.1.2 (XXSLO, ZSLM5). Unrooted and stock ROM. (Updated from 4.0.3 to 4.1.2 in kies)
Everything is back. The phone runs good. But when i try installing any software, it will freeze. The apk/app installs eventually but after 2-3 reboots.
Can you tell me the issue?
I read it somewhere that the "Cache" partition is damaged.
Can someone please tell me any way to avoid freezes.

[Q] Galaxy Ace stuck in reboot loop

My Galaxy Ace is stuck in a reboot loop after trying to flash 2.3.6 onto it, when it had 2.3.5 on it previously.
I've used ODIN and no matter what firmware I try to flash onto it, it just goes into a reboot loop.
Any idea how to fix it?
Did you try to do a wipe?

press down home button and then power on phone ...--> you will enter into recovery mode .
select wipe with help of volume keys and there you go out of bootloop
My Galaxy Ace is also in some sorta reboot loop.
Everything was working fine with it (phone is rooted and CWM installed) until I did a phone reset because I was giving the phone to my gf. After doing this the phone reboots, the blue samsung logo plays (without sound) and then repeats ad-infinitum. I can get into recovery mode and download mode ok and I've tried wipe and even restored a CWM backup (it says it was successful) but the phone just keeps rebooting. I can see the phone in odin but I've never tried to flash anything onto it and quite frankly I'm unsure whether it would just make things worse (if it needs to go back to Samsung for repair). Any help would be appreciated...
If you have cwm ..why dont you download some custom rom like cm7and flash it ..that would bring your phone back to life ...then you can downgrade to stock rom if you want ...and btw in cwm try cache partition , clear data /factory reset and clear dalvik cache ..see if it boots after you do this ..

when i always flash by odin or by cwm i always do wipe , wipe cache and wipe dalvik, this helps me everytime
I managed to flash a firmware from samfirmware and it fixed the reboot.
Now my issue is when I connect to Kies, it says there's an updated firmware for the phone but it fails every attempt to install it. I went back to samfirmware and found this firmware: S5830ZSKPD ## but when I download and extract it there's only 1 x MD5 file and 1 x DLL file?! The other firmware had the 4 or 5 files needed to include in Odin... any ideas guys?
I think its a "one package file " ..I forgot the correct name but there is some option like that in odin ..dont worry it contains all the required files ..and if you are scared to do it then go to you tube ..there are many tutorials showing it then...

Yep, that's exactly what it was, thanks again.
Unfortunately with this firmware, Kies doesn't recognise it and provides no info.
I flashed back to the older firmware... I'll just have to keep experimenting I guess.

Well I could flash it with Odin if I had the firmware but I don't.
It appears it's not available on SamFirmware.com
Do you know where I can download the following firmware?
PDA:KPD / PHONE:KPD / CSC:KPC (THL)
Thanks
Lol I cant understand those firmwares ..can you tell me which version of android you want like 2.3.4/2.3.5/2.3.6 ...then ill be able to help you wanr

Thanks anyway but I managed to find the firmware online and flashed it using Odin.
Now Kies says I'm using the latest which is a good start : )
Now I just need to find a way to root my SGS2 GT-I9100T
U can try a custom ROM from the Developer's forums here.
I also once stucked in the Reboot Loop..............
But then I installed a custom or if you want features from a official Rom, you can install Stock Based custom ROm from the Developer forums of Galaxy Ace. Really good Rom have been made by the developers
In the chance that someone else is looking for this latest OEM firmware update:
PDA:KPD / PHONE:KPD / CSC:KPC (THL)
It can be downloaded from: http://translate.googleusercontent....flgljh&usg=ALkJrhiMpHV83dugh4RGwhKpyjIrYIgn2Q
It is in "one part file" format and can be flashed using Odin.
whatever may be the problem ......just rem to keep a backup of ur previously used rom and just flash it with cwm...

[Q] Bricked LPY without wiping?

Hey guys,
I hope you can help me. I am aware of the ICS Kernel Bricking bug, and the faulty chip with the faulty firmware, as described on the xda portal, and I read all the stickies. Nevertheless I want to ask you for your opinion on this matter, to prevent turning my note into a brick
So thats what happend last night:
I was on LPY for about 1 month (since released) with root, stock kernel. Before I was on GB DarkyRom 3.3. Everything went normal until I made 2 changes the last hours:
1. I modified the build.prop with this tutorial:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1687156
2. I installed Super Video (like popup player on the galaxy s3) and had several freezes when I started to watch 2 videos. So I took out the battery like 4 times.
Phone booted normally. So I locked the screen, and went to a party.
Then I realized that within 2 Hours the battery got from 50% to 15%. I was too busy to look at betterbatterystats, so I just rebooted the phone with the stock Power Menu.
Now my phone won't boot anymore. It stucks on "Samsung Galaxy Note N-7000" Screen.
As I said, I have not wiped, or do anything with cwm or 3e recovery. However, I can get into DL mode and 3e recovery.
What can I do now? Flash LPF? Reflash LPY?
I read somewhere by someone, that it could be, that even without wiping, the phone can get brick at anytime... Did that happend to me?
I haven't tried to flash anything else, because I wanted to share this with you and get your opinion.
Thanks in advance
k!DDa
So now donot try anything.I suppose you were in darkyrom 3.3 re.If so,you should have known about the counter.So flash it and you will be fine.I again say it will increase counter if you use 3.3 re.
If you don't want the counter,flash a stock gb rom/stock-rooted gb rom.I prefer 3.3 re because it is a wipe rom
Hi vijai2011,
thanks for your answer but I was on darkyrom BEFORE I switched to LPY (that was just a side note^^)
> the last month, including today, I am on LPY, which isn't booting anymore.

thats not a problem.you can try.
wow you're fast^^
okay but isn't it possible to revive my note? e.g. just flashing a non wipe ICS version via PC ODIN (I do not care about the counter or triangle)
like criskelos ICS No wipe http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1609252
the inability to boot you describe sounds like something a corrupted build.prop might cause so it's probably nothing to worry about. you'll need to restore your build.prop somehow, probably by flashing something in Odin
ok thanks, I will try. but one good and one bad thing:
I saved the original build.prop before
But on the internal SD card and not my external ^^
If you want to be absolute sure Flash a stock ICS (a full wipe version) rom from pc odin. If all goes well there is no brickissue for you. Then you root using Dr Ketans method.

No problem.As I said already its better to go for a wipe rom because of the repartition thing...
one last qustion,
I decided to reflash LPY. But it has only an tar.md5 file. I cannot use MobileOdin. Can I just put it in PDA at PC Odin? (Rename it before to .tar?)
The last 20 firmwares I flashed hadn't that extension.

[Q] newbie - HELP PLS - bricked?

Hi,
I came from an LG 2x, so I thought rooting my device in order to have some extra authorizations was no big deal. I first tried with pc software Unlockroot, but it failed in the process.
Being my GB 236 Note quite dirty I wanted to do some extra backup and cleanup. So I googled and stopped at rootyourgalaxynote.com, I tried the first ROOT method, not working, I tried the second method with pc ODIN 3.04 and abyss kernel 42, ODIN says it worked, note reboots but it stops at Samsung galaxy Note Gt-N7000 with yellow triangle. shocked, I didnt really expect that! After reading a little bit else, I went to sammobile downloaded italian gb 236 stock (the version I had befor kernel flashing) and tried to flash with PC Odin. It Failed. Device still gets in download mode. But now I'm seriously worried. What can I do?
[UPDATE]: I tried using Odin 1.85 and the same gb 236 stock rom but it stops half the factoryfs.img flashing...please explain me what's happening. I don't really want to bring it in assistance and lose my warranty

First you should t have flash abyss through odin since now you are not rooted and do t have the warranty too, the counter of flashes increased to 1 (look at the download mode small text), for rooting you can use chainfire's tool (in the cf-root kernel thread look for it in devolepment section) next get a stock rooted kernel and flash using the tool (read instructions).
For now use pc odin 1.87 and get a firmware 2.3.6 use the pc odin select the file on PDA and flash it, make sure phone is charged 100% and press start, if it doesn't work then uninstall drivers, reboot machine, reinstall them and kill kies process if present in task manager and then goto download mode connect USB and open pc odin wait for the port to be ready aka green and select file then start.... you should be fine its a soft brick afterall.

Yeah I know atm I don't have system nor root nor warranty.
I tried odin 1.87 with the stock rom from sammobile but at one point or another is it cache.img or factoryfs.img, it fails (I also uninstalled kies and drivers and reinstalled them, i also tried installing only drivers, for at&at note, but it doesn't let me). I'm gonna download another stock rom, I just hope in some way I soon solve the thing, given that I also don't know how much charge is left and if the phone still gets charged. it just displays an idle circle near an empty battery when connected to pc or A\C cable.

When connected to charger make sure phone is off the battery meter will show as soon as you connect, case it doesnt leave it for like 3 hours is fine... next about that ROM redownload. The package cleanup you temp directories in PC and try again if still goto recovery abyss I guess? Wipe everything and use the mount option and format partitions I would recommed you to have repartition but I dont have the file you can look for ot in forum its. PIT file download fireup odin select it in PIT section and see if repartitioning is shocked, of so select firmware as PDA and flash again.

Thx for your prompt answer, but I really didn't catch this part, if it still fails I must go in recovery and wipe cache and dalvik cache?I don't have CWM installed as rooting was the first flashing I tried on NOTE, so I don't have recovery installed. Since it stopped in the middle of flashing factoryfs.img, my Note is now displaying sth like 'updrading went wrong, try recovery mode in Kies': can it help in anyway? The PIT file and procedure are the same that are used for the EMMC bug?

You wipe using the CWM file in the Iss root section, and a normal recovery wipe would do too (aka restore defaults)

Hi REVERSIN,
Thx. I was starting to fear it could be sth more than a soft brick. Can the initial use of unlockroot have caused anything (at least a week ago, Note still working after that)?
Sorry but I really can't understand what procedure should I follow since these initial attempts at flashing stocks failed. Should I try to flash CWM? What is the ISS root section (is it in the forum)? Where can i do a normal recovery wipe from? CWM I guess..
THX for your help

If you have the stock recovery, restore default wipes everything.
If you have stock re every and want CWM temporary just to wipe goto n7000 devolepment and check how to root by dr.ketan and get files there
If you have CWM then wipe data, wipe cache, wipe dalvik.... and try. Old download another firmware like kk5.... something else not the new LC1 LX1 releases.... (Latest GB) get an old one to get root easly

Help - Bootloop from format sdcard, odin didn't fix

Here is my situation:
Flying to Europe long-haul tomorrow and I have no phone. I was about to swap phones with someone, so I cleared the data (factory reset) and formatted the sdcard , I didn't think this would delete my whole ROM and recovery image, just some nude pictures I needed to remove.
I was stuck on the boot logo (samsung .Galaxy S.. GT-I9000), which would flicker every now and again as it restarted.
I used to have Slim ICS 4.2 and Clockwork 5.x (I think), but I just want to have a working phone for my travels.
Now I have the yellow triangle working. With ODIN I have even managed to get a simple recovery, but it still boot loops, albeit with an fancier animation and optus logo.
Odin settings:
PIT: s1_odin_20100512.pit and
PDA: JW6_JV6_JW1.tar
re-partition: yes
auto-reboot: yes
f. reset time: yes
odin3 v1.85
So is there an odin compatible ROM around that will actually work for a blank sdcard? It's an Australian GT-I9000 from optus.
I think I'm close to getting this thing working, but having a flight tomorrow I don't have the time to search for roms.
I now have a working phone after flashing JVT from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1583026
Can't wait to get this samsung junk off it and get back to Slim ICS.
Odin on a Semaphore kernel from the dev thread onto your phone (.tar file). Preferably use version 1.2.6 from the ICS thread. Boot into recovery mode and use the format SD card option there. Stick with 2 GB and 0 MB allocated to swap. After that finishes mount the SD card from CWM and copy a ROM onto the phone, then flash it. CM9 or 10 should be fine. Alternatively you can Odin a stock ROM back onto the phone.

That would have been the issue...

[SOLVED] G7000 Stuck at "Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000"

Hello!
First of all I've searched all the posts about this problem.. and personally I can't fix it.
So here is what I've done to brick my Galaxy Note GT-N7000 (I think that's called a non-usable device).
Installed few ROMs and finally after taking some decisions I've returned back on ICS 4.0.3 (Flashed with ODIN 1.85).
Restored EFS with kTool (because ClearNotev5 did something wrong with my phone.. and discovered after few hours that I can restore EFS).
Updated ICS 4.0.3 to 4.0.4 using WIFI (OTA I think it's called) and BANG after restart phone stucked at Bootscreen.
So from yesterday untill now I've restored my phone to factory settings few times(GB 2.3.5 & 2.3.6/ICS 4.0.4),repartitioned with .pit files for N7000 16GB,installed different custom/stock ROMs and nothing.
I've discovered few minutes ago while triyng to make a factory restore (GB 2.3.5) that my phone stucked at data.img... I've read about this and it is said that I must change my N7000 motherboard.. I have no warranty so please help.. and sorry for my bad english
Read many times about ota harbrick, i think its not advisable to use ota for upgrade. Sorry for your loss.
Flash gb in pc odin, if sucessfull and still stuck in logo go to CWMR and perform 3 wipes. This is all advise i can give you.
And try different gb rom.

I think you had already tried the recovery method from a bricked device. So if you still facing problems you have to change the MB.
OTA Brick or Soft Brick?
I still haven't fix it but here is what I want:
Can someone give me different versions of GB (I've tried only one with CSC,MODEM but this now stops at data.img..) :crying:
I have to make a repartition to my phone? Will that help?
And can someone guide me through a tutorial step by step on how to revive my phone from EMMC Bug..?
PS: When I try to wipe data in CWM (using Hydracore Kernel v2.0b STD) with ICS 4.0.4 (Stock) my N7000 stucks,same for installing CleaNotev5.0 (stucks at Extracting\System).. But what is curios is that, I can clear Dalvik Cache and Cache, I can install Kernels and run N7000 in DOWNLOAD/CWM or stock Restore mode.
Any solutions?Please help..

I still haven't fix it but here is what I want:
Can someone give me different versions of GB (I've tried only one with CSC,MODEM but this now stops at data.img..) :crying:
I have to make a repartition to my phone? Will that help?
And can someone guide me through a tutorial step by step on how to revive my phone from EMMC Bug..?

Just follow the step there.
I've experienced before, and revive it using this method. So far mine still work well, and no further error ever since.
You will loose certain GB on your internal storage. Which for me it's not a big deal. I'm kinda lazy to go to samsung repair center, unless my phone is totally dead.
Here is my step (follow at your own risk) :
1. You have to know first your N7000 is the 16GB or 32GB, and then you download the correct pit for your phone.
2. After you download, extract the zip file.
3. Since mine is the 16GB, I've picked this pit file to use (inside the zip) : Q1_20110914_16GB-patched-regain-0102400-kB.pit (the pit file will be vary depending on which sector your phone brick)
4. Put your phone on to download mode.
5. Open ODIN PC and connect your phone, and wait till ODIN say "Added" and you see that your phone has connected.
6. Put the patch pit file I choose, then put the samsung stock rom as the PDA (if you downloaded 1 file only for the stock ROM, if not, put properly for the PDA, Phone, and CSC).
7. Check ON the "repartition", "Auto-reboot", "F-reset time"
8. Click Start, and wait till the process has finished. Your phone should auto reboot by then.
9. My phone has recovered, and I lost 1GB internal storage.
One last thing, try not to do wipe on ICS, unless you are on a safe kernel like speedmod / GLNotecore.
For Hydracore (You may check with the developer), I haven't tested it yet for wiping. But for those speedmod and GLNotecore, is confirm safe kernel. I've tried these 2 for wiping.
PS : if you are not sure with my step on reviving with the pit file, I suggest you to read the link above from the OP for the pit revive method.
Good Luck !

No problem. Just pick any gb rom, one problem at a time, your problem now is how your phone can boot up.
If you want go to www.sammobile.com and pick your specific rom.
I've downloaded the COSMOTE GB ROM and I will flash it with PC ODIN.
After that I need as I was saying few posts ago how to identify which part of my internal storage is bricked..but a simplified method/guide please.. and sorry for my requests but believe me I'm kinda desperate..

The OP stated very clear on how to get the part of your bricked storage.
After emmc_find_brick_start.zip I get stucked on:
scanning 1167 Mib = 1224 MB ... (picture below)
And now I am waiting emmc_find_brick_end.zip to get stuck
LE: emmc_find_brick_end.zip stuck at:
scanning 3356 MiB = 3520 MB ... (picture below)

Shouldn't be a problem. However, best to root current, then efs backup multiple locations. See dr ketans toolbox thread on how.
Your phones csc is also Romania? Best to stick with your phones csc and those country roms if you want to continue ota/kies updatability in the future Dial *#06# for emei and then *#272*yourimeihere# to find out 3 letter csc.
