I got my Galaxy Note today, I was on 4.0.4 and I rooted it. Then I went to recovery mode and flashed teh recovery there is on clockworkmod webpage for Galaxy Note N7000. After that wipe factory and flashed PA 3.94, and it got stopped and reppently it turn off and I am not able to turn on the phone.... please need some help
the recovery for N7000 is in the kernel so the clockworkmod website flash of CWM doesnot stick.. boot into download mode and flash a stock rom ( preferably JB) and start again
I cannot access download mode I think....
Was it Cwm.zip by any chance?

As an ex-N7000 owner (I still browse these forums from time to time), I can tell you the Temp (non-touch) CWM you flashed is safe for for wipes and formats (hence no problem when you did factory reset with it). HOWEVER it is is not safe to flash ROMs where the zip file contains an updater script with format commands coupled with an update binary which does not suppress "secure erase" commands (Running on top of On ICS kernel - subsequently fixed by Samsung on JB kernels).
With CM.10.* ROMs there is no problem, but some ROMs still use bad update binary (probably from Android kitchen). I feel PA is the culprit in this case.
So it would now seem you are 'Superbricked". Only solution is repartition or new MOBO.
Edit: J-Tag won't work unfortunately.
Will try repartition, if not will try JTAG and if it doesn´t work will send it to service centre. But how to repartition if I cannot access Download Mode?
Download Mode is essential in order to flash required modified PIT file for repartitioning. I assume you can't enter recovery mode either right? That being the case service center is the way to go. J-Tag can't fix bricked areas, but may be also able to re-partition.
Good luck :fingers-crossed:

I mean I cannot access download mode, or maybe idk how to do well, but if I cannot access download mode that maybe means I am hardbrick and not SuperBrick, and Hardbrick can be fixed via JTAG or at least it says here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1656635
I just tried adb devices, not found. I connected Odin, not found. I try access recovery mode, impossible and I tried download mode(maybe idk how to ) impossible.
Also I have not battery signal when I connect phone for charging...
I think you may be both hardbricked and superbricked at the same time (Same as what happened to me). That is the worst case scenario Practice download mode more to see if you can get into it, and, if successful, flash stock GB with PC Odin. Otherwise try repartitioned PIT file from @hg42.

Okey, will try, about JTAG or JIG I think maybe it can get "alive" the phone and let me boot into download mode, idk if is like that There is a sequence for download mode? Try with or without batter? idk so much about Samsung, is my first Samsung Phone, and about you, what you did with it? Did you change your Note? Can I have what the guide call Died Brick?
I got a refund and put it towards Sony Xperia Z. J-Tag may fix bootloaders and bring download mode back, but bricked areas will never be recoverable. Download mode is 3 finger "salute". Forget the combo ATM. Don't have the device

And if I get download mode via JTAG and then repartition? I mean the only solution to bricked areas go good is via repartition,no? And for repartition I need download mode...
I AM STILL THINKING OF THIS, BUT NO SURE
There are three types of bricks for N7000
a) Soft Brick - Stuck at Samsung Logo [Added BootLoop here]
b) Super Brick - Stuck at flashing Factoryfs.IMG in ODIN . Also called as EMMC Bug....
c) Hard Brick - Sorry Unrecoverable by this guide. Try THIS
d) Dead Brick - No charging battery sign also - Mostly = Hard Brick ; But there is a window of possibility by a JIG.
If that guide is good, my device is on d) , but idk what JIG do
I mean if I JTAG will I can use my device? What problems will it have? And if I use JIG, what problems I will have? WIll it work good?
I have just see this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d0SX3iDuIZc
Do that video says I have to JTAG, then use the JIG for going on download mode and then, repartition or install JB ROM from Odin? Please just say me, I can try today
OKey have just commented with some DEVs. Jtag will repartition all for get it booting, so I am gonna try the JIG for see if I can get download mode. If I cannot I will make JTAG(will repartition) and then I will use the JIG for get into download mode(I also can make with hands), so if JTAG work I just need to flash JB via ODIN, my question is, can somebody send me a guide or link for JB to N7000 via ODIN?

The guides are already there in the stickies, people just don't read before flashing.

Hi there.
I have a problem with my Samsung Galaxy Note since I wanted to make it rootable.
When I bought it, I could use any simcard inside, so it is "unlocked".
Yesterday, I wanted to use my phone to root it but some files can't be downloaded via WWW.MULTIUPLOAD.COM (i guess it is because of what happened to MEGAUPLOAD).
So, one of my first questions is : is USB DEBUGGING activated when using the Galaxy note for the first time or not at all? (I didn't activate it when using my Galaxy Note before flashing it)
Second, I have used Odin to flash a file (PDA slot), the file was hard to find but google could help (i'm just meaning that some links here seem to be "broken" on multiupload). The flash was fine and the phone boot back... to a yellow triangle.
No way to change it.
No backup from the rom, but I remember it is a KKA.
I 've looked in that thread ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1350960) to find everything that could help me, but the file is no more on multiupload
I tried via that thread, too :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1370156 , but the problem remains
Third, I don't have any jug usb to use and no CMW installed nor loaded.
Could a kernel help to solve the problem about the yellow triangle, using ODIN, or not? Or is it better to use a fully functionnal rom, as a KKA?
Any help/comment would be much appreciated
N.B : sorry for my english that can be "poor" sometimes :s
Can you exactly give the file name, which you have used to flash PDA section? and size of it

1. It doesn't matter while flashing using PC Odin.
2. Are you sure about which ROM you flashed ( Suspecting you have flashed Custom ROM)
3. Their is way to remove Triangle (!) , you should use JIG

So, I wanted to flash that, using ODIN:
Recovery ClockworkMod Odin flashable.Tar
But on XDA, the link about it is in fact Superuser-3.0.6-efgh-signed.zip.
Did I miss something??
The file I could find using google was about 8Mo and the flash was quite fast.
(I used it for the PDA part)

When No Any other method works to Root your device, use this

Note that, this will downgrade your ROM to KJ1, after that you can update it.
Download: http://www.multiupload.com/YB9EL8D8O3
- Make sure your SGN is NOT connected to your computer
- Reboot your SGN into "download mode" (Vol down + Home + Power))
- Start ODIN
- Click the PDA button, and select the "SGN_XX_OXA_KJ1_FACTORYFS.tar" file
- Connect the SGN to your computer
- Make sure "repartition" is NOT checked
- Click the START button
- Wait for the phone to reboot TWICE
- Done.
Now you have your device Rooted, Install Mobile Odin Pro n update your device to any new ROM with Mobile Odin

This thing you did wrong, I have made lot effort to update Rooting guide here, still somebody How can find this guide i dont know.
Basically you have flashed with Netchip method, which was very first appeared, but later netchip also said, to not to use, b'coz it causing raise Flash counter
as well yellow triangle.
Now onwards remember, NEVER use PC ODIN to Flash Any Custome ROM/Kernel.
I am updating link here soon, how to reset your counter. You requires JIG for that
Edit : here is guide how to reset binaru count, n remove yellow triangle
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1354888
-------------------
BTW till you get JIG, just go to this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997 and download and flash ROM using PC odin(here it is stock ROM u can use it safely). you will get your phone working. later you can reset counter with JIG
Download my guide from here, how to update ROM, you can use Updating ROM with PC Odin section from guide.
Many thanks again, dr.ketan for such reply so fast
Hmmmm then I will have to wait for a JIG. I will order a JIG, it seems the price is not so expensive.

My 2 cents about that question, but if I have a message saying that there is an error while turning on the phone now :
Firmware upgrade encoutered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again.
The problem is, when using Kies (for Windows), it is looking for the Galaxy Note, and, even if it is connected via USB, nothing happens, it's looking long, long, long, time, then, it says that it can not find it.
So, is a JIG still required?

See, JIG is required for totally different reason.
Your issue regarding, not connecting kies / Booting phone, won't be solved by JIG.
Jig can b use in two condition. One when you are unable to enter in download mode. I think, you dont have this issue
another To reset counter, for which you require JIG in your case.
Error you are facing right now during booting of device, can be solved by Reflashing ROM. You can flash any stock ROM with PC Odin, shud be enough to solve it.
Now regarding use of JIG, just enter in download mode, check Lt upper corner of devoce, it will have number of flash you have performed, i think in your case it must be 1 or more. which in normal case should be zero. Only To reset that counter, you needs Jig.
Thanks again.
Well, I download another stock rom but I got a "fail" (red color) above "id:com", when flashing on ODIN.
I am using Windows7 and tested the compatibility mode, the problem remains.
I have .md5 file that I put on PDA part. Then I click on Start but nothing, except the "fail" message.
When turning off the phone and on, I got the other message, said in my previous post :
"Firmware upgrade encoutered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again."
So, Am I missing something.
About the download mode, the number is 7 in fact.
Oh I remember the file I wanted to flash via ODIN : netchip-cwm-update2.tar
It seemed to work just because the phone turned off and I got a "green" message that said that it was ok. (PASS).
I read one of your thread, when nothing works, so that man should go here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18981227&postcount=4
but the file (link) is not working now, so I can not get the file to test :s
But since then, I can not boot on Android anymore...
Yes unfortunately link is down since 2 days
Ya thats i guessed when i read you have used superuser zip, i have said earlier in 1 msg, you have used netchip.
Anyway, once go to recovery (vol up +home+power)n wipe data, clear cache, clear dwlvic caxhe.
Then put phone in download mode. Close firewall/antivirus on pc, open odin, connect device with download mode(vol down+home+power), if id com glow yellow, thn proceed with start

The main problem is that, too.
I can not enter Recovery, I got the yellow triangle.
I can only go in download mode, and when turning off and on the phone, the message said above :s
is JIG the only way to solve all that?
is my phone "blocked"? I am trying to test another stock rom, I'll give it a try and let you guess what happens.
EDIT 22:37:
The flash with that rom (N7000XXLA4_N7000DREKL1_DRE) has failed, even if it is a stock one.
Can I try to use any other rom from another country? Before I tried to flash the rom, I saw it was a KKA. Can I try so with a LA3 or something else, still stock one?
Oh man, that's so bad....
I think I found the problem...
I am using Windows7 64 bits.
My wife is on WindowsXP and I am using Odin on her netbook, and it's quite better !
the flashing is going on.
Hey !!!! that's all good !!!!! ^^'
My Galaxy Notes is working again ^'^'
Maybe should it be mentionned to be careful when using Windows7 64 bits, if some other members would have the same problem when flashing their roms?
Congrates !
ya it is common problem(win7), many time it has been discussed , but it is not that everytime it not works, but it happens in few cases.
When reading your answer yesterday, I thought I might had a chance to make my Galaxy Note working again without JIG.
Now I've downloaded Samsung drivers, for Windows7 64 bits, and I can flash with no problem. I'm backing up and can use CWM
Thanks again for your help and answers
I had the same problem, but then I decided to use the ORIGINAL usb cable and see: it did the trick !!!. Even on Windows 10 64bit !.

Hi dude here is the message angelom sent to me its got the link to the Kernel Enjoy
So here is the link kernel that reset counter and remove yellow triangle:
http://www.mediafire.com/?5bmrc6cf81w5mya
Of course this is what I tried last night and it was fine (flashed over 10 times)
instructions:
It 'a tar file, then flashed it with Odin Pc
You need to have ICS, so if you tried to install GB with odin, you have to flash the Chinese leak ICS (always with odin)
Even if you flash the rom from error, after trying to install, always installs with odin the kernel, it usually also with your problem is successful.
Just you see that phone reboot (just odin gives you the message that the flash of the kernel has been successful) disconnect the usb cable and press once the keys to enter the recovery mode (Vol + + home + power) and keep them pressed until do not see the recovery.
You'll still have the yellow triangle.
When did you get into recovery (still touch CWM) touch on reboot
So, even if eventually the Rom should not start it for the problem of partitions, you'll see that the triangle is gone and the counter is reset.
Of course you do so at your own risk, given my experience after what has happened, I emphasize.

Hello guys. I just upgraded Samsung note n7000 to stock ics rom. I rooted it and all was fine. I wanted to try stunner ics rom so I went to recovery mode and then entered cwm. As soon as I pressed wipe date, it got stuck and now I can't even get into recovery mode. Phone either stuck on Samsung logo or if I try to enter recovery by pressing vol up + home + power, it shows android bot with blue wheel rotating and it keep rotating then again goes to Samsung logo after several minutes. Please advise what to do. I'm new to all this.
If you can get into download mode, Vol down Home and Power, use PC Odin to flash any of stock ROMs and start all over again..
Try flashing GB ROMs first as you are new.. ics roms are not safe ATM..

Try to use ODIN to Get u back to GB. You can flash a Pit file as a last resort. Please go through the numerous threads on ICS and its Risks before flashing.

Another hardbrick!? I think yes. F***, I feel sad for all of those who are bricking their devices.
I am afraid you have to send it to Samsung. They shall replace the mainboard.

i feel sorry for your note but WHY THE HELL DID YOU WIPE??
welcome to *superbrick club*.
one solution is to join the *go-to-samsung-center-and-get-replacement-under-warranty club*
I know a dev(name not to be disclosed) who have recovered from a superbrick (and yeah I'm sure a superbrick) by making a custom kernel.I can let let the info out if any real and very talented kernel dev can make a kernel.I'm not trolling guys....Its real.

But I'm able to go to downloading mode and when i put it on charge, it says firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in kies and try again.
Does it still mean I hard bricked the device?
Unfortunately, yes.
You can try to flash a stock GB Rom from Download Mode using PC Odin, but your
flash will fail. We have seen it so many times before...
However, there's no harm in trying, so go for it, maybe you prove to be an exception.
warranty?
if i connect my phone to charger, it says firmware upgrade encountered an issue. please select recovery mode in kies. but kies detects the phone bnut keeps saying connecting....
i am able to go to downloading mode which says
custom binary download:no
current binary: official
i have tried to put stock rom using pc odin but it gets stuck at nand write start.
is there a way out here?
if not, will samsung honour the warranty?
thanks.

Whether Sammy will honor the warranty? I guess it depends on your local service centre.
i had the same problem. i wiped cache and data. problem solved.

Yes they will honor the warranty. give an excuse that you got a notification for upgrade to ICS and then your phone wont boot.
all the best
I am in serious trouble and need urgent help!!
I own an international Galaxy GT I9000 and recently rooted and afterwards attempted to flash XXJW4 software on the phone. Upon trying this I realised that my model is one of the unlucky ones as you cannot enter download mode via the three-button combo, neither can you enter recovery. Since I have some experience with Android, I used adb commands to reboot the phone into download mode.
Here is where my problem lies...
I flashed the wrong file using Odin. Instead of flashing the JW4_JW4_JW4 file, I flashed a file named XXJW4_Root_AA.tar... Needless to say, this didn't go down well. The phone is in a boot loop now, rebooting at the Samsung logo (not the boot animation). ADB cannot find the device, neither can odin, and no one seems to be able to help... Is the final solution a a USB Jig? I am in South Africa, so finding one here is hell..
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated!
If you can't get into download mode, USB jig is your best bet.

Okay, I have been reading up on those but I can't seem to find any resistors in my area! Also, if I do manage to get download mode going, will this ensure that my PC will recognize the phone? Odin and my PC recognized the device just fine, but Kies was not functional (before the phone got bricked)
The jig will solve your problems at no time.It saved me!

Pull the battery, hold the button to download the mod and then plug the battery into the phone, I hit download.

I tried this but it did not work... I flashed the xxjw4 CF Root file over stock Eclair by mistake, is the stock Eclair still there and can it be considered a soft-brick? If so I would like to know which firmware I can flash to fix this. Is xxjw4 an option or must I flash XXJVU first? (I have downloaded both firmwares and their respective CF Root files) Thanks in advance

Just try this solutions may or may not work, but no harm in trying http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27205737&postcount=4571
three best stock rom XXJVU file, but with pit 512 and re-partition on.
Just find the Galaxy S drivers from somewhere, my computer does this sometimes, have u got windows 7 running on your PC? sometimes my laptop with windows 7 cant find my device, but my one with Windows Vista always manages to find it, try a different PC first. Once you found the device just flash a full stock version, like XXJVT for example, something with the pit., CODE, CSC and Modem file

Odin does not reformat /data and /cache and /dbdata back to rfs, so the kernel cannot mount it, hence the bootloop. Just do a factory reset from stock recovery and your good to go

Okay thanks for the info... So because I am not able to do the three button fix do you recommend that I jig the phone, and flash the three button fix, after that enter recovery and do a wipe? No need to flash the new firmware? (Which I do plan to do but only after I can get the phone up and running again with the jig)
If you can't find the resistors, you can buy the jig off ebay for about 2 quid. I know it's expensive for a 1p resistor and a 1p case but how much is your phone worth to you
The jig will definitely sort it.

True. I am able to make one though as it's simple enough. The question is what do I do once I get into download mode? Three-button fix or the new firmware? Would XXJW4 be good or should I get the XXJVU firmware instead?? Don't want to make another NoOb mistake. I am pretty much golden when dealing with the Motorola stuff!!

Odin must flash over stock rom / pda, phone, csc / pit with 512 and re-partition, preferably back to your stock 2.3.4 region.potom cf root-root kernel version of your firmware., Semaphore kernel and stock rom jw4 , 5.6 ..
it helped me
Flash something safe like XXJVU. Do a full flash too. PIT, CSC, PHONE AND PDA. You'll be fine
Hi, I need some advice. I dropped my Galaxy S in a puddle. It was submerged for the just a second, but when I fished it out, the screen had gone 'weird', so I got the battery out as quickly as possible, then dried it out for a few days in the airing cupboard. I then tried it and it started up okay, then when I swiped to unlock the screen, it froze. since then I have been unable to boot the phone. It shows the Galaxy logo, then restarts and continues that loop.
I wondered if maybe the software has just been corrupted during its bath, so I thought i might try flashing a ROM onto it to see if that would recover. I found that I could not enter recovery mode but download mode opened okay. I have tried flashing a few ROMS using Odin. I am completely new to this and have never flashed my phone before, so steep learning curve. I have so far tried - I9000XWJW5 which I believe is normally used before installing Cyanogen mod. I also downloaded the T-Mobile Stock ROM and one with this filename - CF-Root-XX_OXA_JW4-v4.4-CWM3RFS. All of these successfully downloaded to the phone and I could see the progress bar on the phone. Unfortunately I still cannot get the phone into recovery mode.
So, whats your opinion? is my phone screwed? Is there anything else I can try which may help, like formatting or anything like that.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
try search for value pack 2.3.6 and flash it then root it after that I believe you should get the recovery option.

Unfortunately I think that was the file - I9000XWJW5 I had already tried.
did you rooted your phone after flashing

Can I do that without being able to get into recovery mode?
I've just been reading that I can use a PIT file to repartition during flashing. Is it worth trying? I noticed in the Value pack TAR file it does not have a PIT file. I got one downloaded from somewhere else called - s1_odin_20100512.pit worth a shot?
I tried including the pit file as well. Odin reported success but phone is still continuous boot loop and I cannot get recovery mode up. Do you think one of those USB things that get you into download mode would help? I'm beginning to think the internal SD is knackered, or something like that.
I think the memory is brocken but i don't realy know. Send it to Samsung for a check
