I super bricked (no download mode or recovery mode) my Galaxy Note while restoring from CWM backup last night, I had LP8 installed, binary count is 0.
I have already sent it to the Samsung Service Center, question is: what should I expect??
FYI : My motherboard had been replaced 2 times already earlier due to emmc bug.

What on earth are you doing to consistently brick it? If you're under warranty then you should be ok - given that the emmc is a known issue which they're aware of..
On a side note, I'd suggest not being so flash happy and a little more reading before you mess around..
Good luck..

I was tryin to get navigation bar like that in Nexus, had created a backup if smthin went wrong, I haven't flashed any custom ROM, and ya its under warranty, and I have decided I'll be buying only Nexus series from now on
Good thing you have warranty, but still bricking it 3 times now, I wouldn't want my device on the service center it's inconvenient and really not worth wasting my time, I'd rather be very careful flashing than going to the service center for repairs. But anyways that's my opinion. It's your device and you can do whatever you want with it
Please have a look here, before you transform your note into a brick... for the 4th time

I don't understand how anyone can brick more than once! It's just plain stupidity.

No I didn't do it on purpose, I had followed steps for flashing ParanoidAndroid ROM, I flashed a stock GB ROM as asked, but in both attempts I got my phone soft bricked, is there any guide you can suggest for a fool-proof way of flashing without bricking??

There is no known method of Flashing without the chances of Bricking the phone.. I suggest you read the instructions thoroughly before attempting to brick your phone... Again!

Than I guess I'll have to stick with the stock ROM and wait for next Nexus to be launched, I had GSII previously and flashed ROMs without any worry, and fyi I did follow every instructions, I'm not a noob

There is a safe way to flash, this is why a lot of people do it successfully...
My thoughts are that you followed instruction to a degree.. If you're on a Stock GB there's no fear of Brickbug at all...
I am wondering if you flashed Abyss in ICS - or did not reboot recovery after installing Abyss....
Which steps did you follow and which ROM, I've flashed PA without issue after downgrading to GB via PC ODIN, Rooting with SpeedMod and then flashing PA..

I don't think Galaxy Nexus is coming to India ever. You should probably get it imported or ask some relative to get it for you.

You did not follow the steps.
Stock ICS kernel had the bug that will brick your phone.
Always instal a safe kennel, reboot into recovery and then wipe, then instal new ROM

Restoring in cwm under ics kernel triggers brick bug. This has been documented since the bug was found and is all outlined in the stickies all over the forum. I'm sorry but I have no sympathy for someone bricking for a third time, there's just no excuse for this short sightedness.

Im assume your devices havent rooted. And wanna go for custom ics rom.
1) root your devices ( dr.ketan thread).
2) flash speedmod or hydracore kernel thru rocovery or mobile odin.
3) reboot recovery and do full wipes.
4). Install rom. Done.
Good luck

So.. did you brick your phone? If it was, I know it's normal, even with a PIT revive, to lose memory!

Pit revival won't take out that much memory. He's down from GBs to MBs
it turned out that i used the wrong pit in odin so it eleminated the internal storage
did the process again and used th right one .. and now i have 9.3 gb free space
thank for your time guy

i havent unlocked the bootloader yet so i use the stock kernel
have you tried formatting your sdcard? make a backup first, though.

Flashback to original 2.1 firmware and then Root, Recoveries etc.

After reading encryption unsuccessful thread in development section i am downgrade my captivate from slimbean to saurom jvu. Is there any way to prevent this. I am looking to change the default memory from internel to external. Anybody tried it. Can my cappy read the internel memory after changing it.

I'm not sure the bug can be prevented but it doesn't happen to everyone, I personally never got it.
One thing though, why downgrade? JB is by far better than ICS.

seems to be exclusively ICS problem. have not heard of anyone having the EU bug with any JB rom flashes coming directly from GB.
