Samsung kies not going to upgrade due to so many reason. My fren g.note also faced the same prob before. He failed to upgrade thru kies as well. But after 2days tried, kies suddenly appear ugrade available. My another fren using s3 also same, mrn his phone detected update about 93mb available while at office, but he decide update thru kies at home. But nothing happened and kies appeared no update at all.Even he use ota thru his s3 also no more update available. But surprisingly he did manage update his s3 thru kies at second day. Weird right?..ha..
For 2.3.6 custom firmware litening rom will be my best choice.
For ics 4.0.4 custom rom, classic rom will be my choice.

You are super bricked go claim your warranty..
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium

was your phone in working order before yo decided to update? what ROM were you on? did you wipe on a dangerous kernel?

Did you EVER do a wipe on your phone? If yes, did you check emmc integrity afterwards?

I Believe i was on a 2.3.6 ROM, but can't really remember because the phone was laying around and i decided to use it again.
I know there's still a backup on the external SD card from it that i made with CWM, and here it all did go wrong.
I wanted to recover the backup, and the phone rebooted and hanged on '' Galaxy note n7000 screen ".
So, what is the best step for now what i can do ?

Because otherwise i cannot claim my warranty, and what can i do about this than? i suppose there is a manner to get it up and running again ?

Not sure, but I think you have to flash a Stock ICS kernal before you flash any ICS Rom for the first time.

Well, you should know what your flash counter was before. Flashing a stock ROM did not increase it.
Also, if you are really super-bricked Samsung will not be able (or willing) to read it.

Well so far i understand is this:
In ODIN mode it says:
ODIN MODE (In red)
PRODUCT NAME: GT-N7000
CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: NO
CURRENT BINARY: SAMSUNG OFFICAL
is this it?
Never got into android before, but willing to learn it tho, really like it.
Luckely i still have my galaxy s3 that works perfectly fine (Stock)

By the way,
What if my warranty does not cover this, or there would occur a problem that i cannot send it under warranty what steps can i take to get it working again? or is it really dead....

Wait, So you say
a.) you were on 2.3.6 i,e, Gingerbread,
b.) you had CWM which I assume is again Gingerbread based,
c.) You backed up and restored from CWM (Gingerbread based) and you got stuck at Boot Logo.
d.) You tried flashing stock ICS ROM via ODIN while on a Gingerbread based kernel.
c.) Stuck at FactoryFS.img which translates to a Superbrick. (While on a Gingerbread Kernel?)
Please contact Entropy ASAP before sending the device to samsung.
Please change your thread title to "Galaxy Note stuck at flashing FactoryFS from Gingerbread." or something similar so that your thread can be noticed easily.
If this is indeed true, then it means we are all going to brick at some point.

Are you SURE you were on Gingerbread when you did the restore?
Your symptoms sound like what happens when wiping with older CF-Root ICS versions (Specifically CF-Root 5.5 for ICS kernels).

Messed up screen after ICS update

Hi everyone,
I tried to install the new ICS ROM for my P7310.
Had CM10 installed and first tried to install the modified one via CWM.
Worked like a charm, but after screen was off it became messed up just like this guy had it.
Then I tried to flash the Stock ROM via ODIN. Installed just fine, but now I have the same messed up screen.
Problem is: It is messed up in Stock Recovery, too

Can I install an older ROM (which one, tab is from Switzerland) or CWM via Odin?
I think I could hit the download mode without seeing what is on the screen
Thanks in advance!

(Edit: for a solution, scroll to end of this post)
I've heard "garbled screen" a few times regarding the ICS update.
Have you seen these posts? They suggest a solution... (and there's even another reference to Switzerland...)
I don't have experience with the issue, and can't comment beyond what I read elsewhere.
rufree2talk said:
I bought the Tab 8.9 in Switzerland recently... am fairly well informed about working around Android devices... updated the firmware on my stock Honeycomb to the US ICS release via Odin... no issues in the process, and the tablet came up smart and zippy running ICS... even got the Play Movies/Books/Music app which normally doesn't feature in devices sold outside USA... although not much use of them unless I use a VPN service...
the problem is that as soon as I lock the device, or the screen times out, on trying to unlock the device I am met by a garbled unworkable screen... there is no option but to hard-reboot the device to get it working again... somebody is having the same issue here, but I can't post in Development forums... have tried reflashing and all, but its always the same thing... even with stock USA Honeycomb its the same behaviour... is there a region limitation to this firmware for proper functionality?

I managed to workaround this issue... flashed the P7310UELA3 3.2 via Odin, booted into recovery, performed factory reset/data erase, again flashed P7310UELPB 4.0 via Odin, and this time the Tab has no issue! it works like it should and there is no garbled screen on unlocking... if you want to save your app data before you do these steps, use Titanium...

Edit: confirmed solution
by now several people have confirmed that flashing the P7310UELA3 is a working solution to screen flickering after resume from standby. (Flash the UELA3 using Odin, then flash again the ROM you really want to run)
You can find UELA3 ROM via any of these links:

Back to HC and to ICS again?
I've seen this quote a day late.
" If you're not on ICS yet but plan on upgrading, flash P7310UELA3 first. It seems that for some, flashing ICS straight gives you the weird screen strobing."
Now I have screen problems on ICS when I connect a data cable http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=31410065&postcount=21. If I downgrade via Odin to P7310UELA3 and then go back to ICS via Odin, will data be preserved?
Update after flashing:
I flashed the recommended HC version, Tab couldn't get through bootanimation sequence. I turned the Tab off and started download mode again. Reflashed with ICS and all data was still there. Only the homescreens were empty again. My screen problem is fixed though.

this continues to happen (to small minority?) of people moving from HC to ICS, but seems to be hard to find.
(last case: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1895361)
(I've included it a new FAQ I posted here)

thaks all of u u really save my tablet! I thought it was damaged! I applied the above procedure and everything is perfect now

Hi Everyone
I'm doing something wrong here, hope someone can help.
Every time I install a ROM (Jellybean or ICS) I get the garbled screen after standby.
So, I've tried flashing the P7310UELA3 via Odin and I get a fail, do I just upload it to Bootloader or PDA?
My P7310 is a French version and I have tried flashing the French bootloader too, but still get fail.
I am a noob at this, but I am so close to installing a good rom but fail at the final hurdle. Any help would be fantastic.
Cheers

do you get the communication port with a yellow color before flashing?
also, make sure you are using the original USB cable that came with your tablet to flash it

I flashed my 7310 with UELA3 using Odin and then used default recovery to install CWM 6.0.0.8.
But now CWM is rolling very fast, not readable.
I found this solution, but it's for the 10.1 tab. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=27830023#post27830023

I think this P7310UELA3 is android 3.2, and the android ICS 4.0.4 is available
so even if you want an android 3.2, I don't think you'll find anyone who can share it with you
If it is OK to use android ICS there is a link I already uploaded to Dev-Host HERE

Thanks. This whole stream is about the problem with the installation of stock ICS ROM which results in screen flickering on some devices. It happened to me after upgrading with KIES: The tablet becomes completely unusable. The solution suggested and tested above is to flash P7310UELA3 before ICS. Unfortunately, I could not find a working link to ROM P7310UELA3, since hotfile was shut down.
Could anyone share this ROM with me ?

[Q] Advice to unlock/Root GT-i9000 please

Hi all I've not done this before but not noob to the unlocking scene just first time for Android.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S GT-i9000
Firmware Version 2.3.5
Baseband Version I9000BVJV3
Kernel Version 2.6.35.7-I9000BVJVC-CL679241 [email protected] #2
Build Number GINGERBREAD.BVJVC
What I'm looking to do is unlock it to allow me to use any network (currently orange).
after that I would then like to look at changing the rom or upgrading to the latest Rom's where able for SIII & S4. :victory:
I've spend a while reading other post so clearer than others but none that can help me as I'm having trouble finding the correct Kernel.
Please any and all help would be most appreciated.:cyclops:

plenty of unlock apps in the market
http://bit.ly/K0HktJ
then follow this tutorial to root http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1637966

Update on advice
Hi thanks for posting advice.
I've managed to unlock the phone by using a combination of
Rooting it with Unlock Root via pc
That gave me Superuser (upgraded to pro for £2)
BusyBox Free, Titanium backup Free needed also
Then I was able to use Galaxy S Unlock to save files to sdcard and unlock to any network.:victory:
Now does this mean I'm rooted and don't have to follow all the steps that the link above advices

Thanks for comments, can I ask now its rooted do I need to install anything else to allow me to change the Rom's such as newer official ones or once others are raving about.
Thanks.

updating or changing ROM was easy method but deadly also, wrong move will come to brick fone. if u really hav thought it well, juz follow any instruction on xda regarding i9000 after confirming ur device version, backed up baseband, build number n etc involve.
n now u ll need cwm for flashing. find cwm to gain access to recovery n thats where u gonna flash ur custom ROM, but read a lot before doing it as here in Q & A section, many success, also failure posted here, so be sure to read first mate

I've got this phone that I sold to a person, but he couldn't get the camera working and the gallery. Only the contacts and calling worked but before I sold it to him everything worked perfectly fine, now the thing is he says that he got some kind of message and just pressed some buttons.
And now this phone has this issue that the internal SD isn't working or won't see it.
I told him to give the phone to me and I would try and fix it by just wiping it in CWM 6.0.3.2 it was running on Cyanogenmod 10.1 nightly, but now I got this error that it won't install any of the roms anymore of Cyanogen, it gives me this error report :
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
It will just boot to CWM now as I wiped the entire thing so no rom is on it anymore.
Any ideas?
EDIT: Issue has been resolved thanks to xsenman

I have several ideas:
Firstly, you should try mount the phone to PC through 'mounts and storage' option, copy new ROMs and Kernels. You can then try installing different kernel (Semaphore, CyanCore) for JB4.2, reboot to recovery, full wipe and install ROM. If you still get same error, try it with external SD.
If that method won't work, you can try using Odin (but be careful!) - install 3-file JVZ ROM with repartition
Code:

hotfile. com/dl/136940891/b232b26/I9000XWJVZ_I9000OXAJVT_OXA.rar.html
then JVZ kernel
Code:
www.semaphore. gr/kernels/Semaphore_kernel_JVZ_2.1.1.tar
- and now you should be able to install custom ROMs again.
PS. Remember to take EFS backup if you didn't before.

I'll report back if this method worked.

Solution:- Most likely you have a incompatible CWM, or your Zip files are corrupted or you have mounted /system or /data

That's what My Android Solutions say about error "Status 0" in point 26.
For me wiping everything and installing stock rom + kernel with working CWM did a trick when I had similar problems.

There are 20 versions of Galaxy S, and their ROMS may not be compatible with each other, so make sure you know which model and which ROM should be used. CWM version 6.0.32 is much advanced version for Gingerbread ROM and used in S3 and S4 models, most likely the reason for your problem
Is your Phone i9000 or i9001? or any of these ?
Galaxy S GT-I9000 Galaxy S International
Galaxy S GT-I9000B Galaxy S Brazil
Galaxy S GT-I9000L Galaxy S Chile
Galaxy S GT-I9000M Vibrant Bell

I followed it and now I'm at the point where CWM is no more on the phone, my only last resort is Download mode now. I need the files in order to continue further though, but I have no idea which files I would need for Odin?

I actually followed that one and it booted up to a password screen, no idea what to do here?
EDIT:
I just entered many wrong passwords to let it wipe a imaginary sd card ._.
But it gave me a list of text, and now it's back
Thanks alot

Read over the forum bit more. If you listen the guy who answered you first (AreXe), ask him if he is going to buy you new phone when you brick it, according to his advices. It is nonsense all he wrote you.

I fixed it already, and I got it working just fine now.
Gave it back to the guy, he's happy I'm happy.
