Did u flash safe kernel before flashing the JB rom? Or did u factory reset/wiped on stock kernel?

dude just saying downloading files and installing wont work.. you need to let us know the exact files you downloaded, method followed, and state of the phone before installing the new rom, as in if it was rooted or what version of rom? anything

ok the files i've downloaded and put them on the sd card were aokp_n7000_jb_build-2 and gapps-jb-20121011-signed and after copying them on the sd card i pressed the power+volume up+home buttons and chose to wipe everything then i went and chose the aokp_n7000_jb_build-2 and it started installing it then suddenly it turned off and nothing is working since then

hmmm..
ok check if something happens if you press the (vol down + power + home) for a while. report back

well nothing is happening at all when pressing the 3 buttons together, all i wanna do is restoring it to factory settings and nothing more but i don't know how to do this now

its the vol down this time not up..
Remove battery
reinsert it after a few secs
again vol down power and home
if nothing happens try charging the battery for a while and try the above steps

1) Charge your phone.
2) Install Kies on your computer.
3) Restart computer
4) Plug phone into computer. Is it detected?
5) Repeat step 4 but after pressing volume down/power/home
6) Repeat step 5 but after using samsung USB jig (you have to buy it but it's cheap)
the samsung USB jig will try to 'force' your phone into the same mode that volume down/power/home does.
I would never ask a regular xda user this question but...
are you sure you have an N7000? does it have a home button? how many contacts are on the battery?

i hate to say it but he updated to the latest stock and then tried to flash files from recovery.
it sounds to me like mmc_cap_erase bug
assuming, of course, that he doesn't have an i717 and flashed N7000 files over it.
which would just as easily brick

OP all hope is not lost though, if you can get into download mode we can save your phone. on the other hand if you are under warranty, go to the Samsung store and tell them you tried to factory reset from stock and it wouldn't boot again (and nothing about rooting etc). you will not be under warranty if you are in the USA or Canada and have an N7000
sounds to me like your flash counter should still be 0

Of course i'm sure that i have Galaxy Note N7000, the only issue is that i'm just new to the android world and i'm not familiar with the android terms like Root, Flash, Kernel and stuff like these and that's why i'm stuck here
But my question is why can't i go to the recovery mood normally like why pressing the home+power+volume down is not working for me?? btw i'm not in the united states and unfortunately i bought this phone when i was on a vacation and i'm in another country right now

Can you get into download mode or not.
Pull battery. Wait a minute. Put battery back in. Hold home power DOWN (not up)

Unfortunately i can't

If you can't enter download mode then you're superbricked. You can repartition the chip which is a pretty advanced process and I imagine you'd struggle with it, or you can claim warranty. In future read the forums thoroughly before doing any sort of flashing, start with the stickies and make yourself aware of any and all issues before you flash.

[Q] Galaxy Note GT-7000 Boot problem after normal restore

Hi
Firstly, I'm sorry about my incorrect english.
I have a big problem with my rooted Galaxy Note Stock ICS 4.0.4.
After a phone restore (done in the Options menu) I encountered a boot problem.
When I turn the phone on, I see the white Galaxy Note GT-7000 writing and then
the Samsung Galaxy boot logo which continues flashing all the time but the
OS isn't booting. There isn't a boot loop which restarts the phone, only the blinking
Samsung animation.
I do really not know much about Android, rooting, flashing etc so I don't know what
is the problem and what I can do to fix it.
Recently I did a data/factory reset and cache partition wipe in the recovery mode,
hoping that this could help, but that didn't change anything.
After that I flashed another stock rom (ICS 4.0.4 Switzerland (Swisscom)) with
Odin in download mode, but there's still the endless boot problem.
I read about brick and that its not recommended to wipe anyting.
What could be my problem and how could I resolve it?
I'm sorry if theres just another thread which speaks about the same problem, but I
didn't find anyone with the identical situation as mine.
I'm very grateful for any answers.

hmm.. it could be because of data partition corruption..
download this http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?ukk00n20dahxxkp
place it on external SD.. boot into recovery and choose apply update from ext storage
once done. boot into recovery again.. now ... in the new CWM. do
factory reset., wipe cache partition
advanced menu> wipe dalvik cache
reboot

Hi,
thank you for your answer. But perhaps as I turned the phone on the first time
since yesterday (i didn't do anything since), I'm not anymore able to go into recovery mode
and the boot process ends just at the white Galaxy Note writing (without bootloop, there's
only the static text)
Only the download mode works fine, but obviously I cant install your file from there...

If you can get into download mode, better flash a stock ics rom first. After the flash is successful you can try to do the procedure as in my previous post.

I tried to flash different roms (also stock ones) but the download of the "factoryfs.img" doesn't finish.
The only thing I could do is to interrupt the downloading and restart from the beginning.
I read that this problem happens sometimes and that it could be resolved rebooting the phone and
the pc, but I didn't got it working
Do you know why it doesn't work? The first time I flashed successfully, but that was the first and the last time.
I don't even get an error or a fail notification...

If Odin stops at "factoryfs.img" you bricked your device.
(I wrote this and the following lines a few times now in the last days, but the different OP are consequently ignoring the message and try other intelligent approaches, in the end they will not succeed, because their Note is still bricked).
Solution: Samsung replaces your motherboard (that is the only real repair).
Workaround: eMMC scanner and repartition trick in hg42's threads.
Nothing else will help if your device is bricked.

i know what you are getting to but till one is completely satisfied that the phone is bricked, they wouldnt go about repartitioned the memory and loose 3 GB... at least i wouldnt and i am sure no one will till all possible scenarios are exhausted, So try to be a little positive..

You said something about loosing 3 GB repartitioning the memory. Its possible to revive the phone by this way?
Does anyone know approximately how much it will cost me to replace the motherboard of the Note?

download this PIT file http://d-h.st/FVh
now put the phone in download mode again, open odin and select the PIT file in the PIT tab. also make sure repartition is checked.
select the rom in PDA (if more that one file for rom, choose appropriate options)
connect the phone .. when the port is shows in odin flash again,,, check if this also stops at the same factoryfs

if you have warranty thats the first one to do. if not then there is a way by repartitioning the memory to skip the bad blocks, not a guaranteed method but works most of the time. cost of motherboard is high about 350-400$

One final try. If you are able to go recovery mode,pressing volume up, home, power buttons, flash abyss kernel 4.2, do all wipes and formats and flash a custom rom such as kingdroid.

Thank you for your attempt helping me. Perhaps the flashing still fails (factoryfs.img could not be downloaded entirely).
Damn, 350-400$ only for the motherboard is a lot, considering that I bought this almost new phone for around 340$...
Isn't there any other way to get rid of the "brick"? I would accept any loss of memory just to get the phone working...
By the way is it a soft- or a hardbrick?

[Q] My GNote hard-bricked?

Things I did:
1. Want to try out the JellyBAM ROM
2. Installed CWM and rooted the phone
3. Wiped user's data
4. Began flashing the ROM
But then I remembered that I haven't clear the dalvik cache yet and when I look at the ROM installing progress, it wasn't moving so I think something really did went wrong. Then I tried to reboot it into recovery mode again but it won't switch on any longer. Plugged into the pc, nothing, no charging sign, nothing at all! I can't neither go into recovery mode nor the download mode as well...sigh......
Is there still hope for my phone?

how did you install CWM?

If nothing works, try to get it repaired under Warranty, else as a final resort try jig.

Well, the phone was bought some time in the second half of year 2011, so I'm not sure whether or not the warranty still valid though…sigh. As for the jig, I've read that it won't really work all the time?

Warranty normally covers one year, yet check with a samsung dealer.

Help, don't know how to reinstall OS

Hello to all,
I have some issues with my samsung galaxy s advance i9070 working with stock JB JZO54K.I9070XXLQE. With the rooted phone, I wanted to install CWM and followed the procedure, as I entered in recovery mode and accessed the first .zip file. It started to install. Next step was to press the home screen button and touch the display till the screen will show the new recovery interface. But nothing happened. I forgot to mention that I did wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache before starting anything.
My phone started normaly but it seems something wrong happened as it was showing some errors about google apps and almost all google apps disappeared. I shut down system and try again the same procedure, but still nothing happened. Same errors...so I wanted to flash the JB 4.1.2 stock ROM with Odin to get rid of those errors. So after I downloaded from sammobile the firmware, flash it, everything went ok till the phone had to reboot...it remained at the black screen showing the samsung i9070 white logo. I waited for Odin to show pass and disconected. Tried to restart but nothing happens. Still that black screen showing the samsung i9070 white logo. I reflash it second time with Odin using other JB 4.1.2 stock ROM. The problem is the same.
What can I do ? How can I fix the problem? I can enter only in download mode.
I'm new with the android OS. Pls help !

Try to wipe cache and do factory reset now again.

Flash again stock firmware with Odin, if you are able to enter ONLY in download mode. Download again stock firmware and compare the dimensions of files to see if there any difference.
Maybe you flashed a corrupt file.

Flash and leave phne connected until reboot and apear the screen with Google account. I don't see any reason to not boot and hope you have luck.

Hey...I've finally managed to flash it with stock JB and the system starts normaly...You were right about the dimension of the firmware package, thanks a lot. That's one part of the problem solved. The other part of it is that the phone still refuses to go into recovery mode. What is to be done now ?
Is there a way of flashing with Odin a Recovery Mod ? CWM ?

Turn off the phone, pull out the battery for few seconds and after that press in the same time buttons : Power + Volume Up + Home.
Remember IN THE SAME TIME must press all three buttons and wait until you feel a short vibration.

I have read all the pages, but it dosen't says anything about partitions..It means the memory card should be a normal fat32 partition ?

Sorry, but you must ask in that thread. I don't use that setting and don't know to much about.

I have solved it like this : made a single FAT32 partition. Installed the .zip for change memory, reboot and now my device is showing my 32Gb memory card as internal memory and also installing apps on it. I noticed that some apps or part of them still go in the system partition (not USB storage) cause it fills some of that space too.

SIII Mini rebooting every 3 seconds! Please help!

Hi there,
My phone has started trying to reboot every 3 seconds. Where can I download an Android OS and how do I flash it onto my phone?
First time threader, not a techie. Be gentle.

I have also just started having this issue! Would be great if someone has some advice.

weird, mine started to have this issue 2 days ago as well : o
i smell conspiracy
however, i think you should just read up on some tutorials, there are tons of them out there

What rom? Stock 4.1 or cyanogenmod?

didnt work for me, also bought a new battery, because other sources said this might be the cause of the bootloop. didnt work either. i have the stockrom 4.1.x
that i rooted a long time ago. so i will try to flash a custom rom on it, see if it works
---------- Post added at 01:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:01 PM ----------
i have one question left though: do i need odin to flash the rom, or is it enough to select the corresponding option in cwm? i did read several tutorial about that, most are with odin. my head hurts from the information overload, since i barely have any knowledge about modding android.
a brief answer is appreciated
edit: found the answer x)

So i tried installing cyanogenmod 11 with cwm, but my device keeps booting (half an hour so far) -> apparently i screwed up.
i attempted to restore my backup, but the problem is that the boot error is even present in recovery mode, so i didnt manage to restore it yet. any ideas on how to proceed`?

i forgot to update the thread, sorry about that x).
actually i managed to resolve my problem already and successfully installed cyanogenmod 11. also, the booting error is hardware-based. i realized that it occasionally occured after pressing the power button. apparently the button "presses itself" for longer after using it and this causes the restart. a lot of samsung-users seem to have this problem.
thank you nevertheless for your reply
