[Q] Help note bricked?

Hi, I think I have bricked my phone! =(
I flashed yesterday the BlackCNA rom and I didnt liked it so I flash the stock rom 4.0.4 by odin, then the note stucked at samsungs logo, when this happened I restart the phone an flashed CWM, then CWM SuperSU and the francos kernel to root the phone.
The thing is that now I cant use my phone because it doesnt pass the samsungs logo!
First wrong section
Second get a stock gb rom and flash it via Odin...
Btw you don't have to flash franco to gain root..
There's plenty easy methods to root and francos its a way outdated kernel

Now I did a wipe cache and nothing!!
Before flashing stock gb flash Hydracore Standart then reboot to recovery and wipe everything and see if the phone boots

I flashed hydracore and do all wipes, and after 5 minutes the note started! thanks!!!
No problem.. Do not flash franco that's a really old software.. And with hydra you are safe to go with all roms (ics) and you gain root and cwm..

Thank men! You saved me!!
Now I have the problem that appears me a software update (of 5mb) with OTA and I put ok, it download correct and ask me to restart the phone, and when I put OK it restarts but at the recovery, so I dont know what to put but restart phone. How I can install this update with OTA without this problem?

Seems like you are on custom Kernel (hydracore) and as long as you are on custom kernels you cannot receive OTA updates. As of now best for you is to just ignore the OTA update.

Ok, I'll do that. But for the future when JB appears by OTA how can I put the official kernel?

You can download stock kernel for your rom from here and then flash using mobile odin. but there is no surety of OTA update even after flashing stock kernel but you can use kies for major updates.

Lol you don't have to worry about that for some months... Besides when ever the official gets out you can happily download it from sammobile.com then flash it via odin

Yes, as long as you don't unlock the bootloader and just root your warranty will be preserved once you get back on stock rom. All you will need to do is flash stock ftf and the custom recovery will be removed as well.
Thank you maaan

The only way to root is by downgrading first. The video guide is in my signature

4.4.2 Brazil is out - Full File like in SBF?

Hello my friends.
Yesterday the brazilian users began receive 4.4.2 and someone get the OTA file (https://mega.co.nz/#!rc4kGQSS!Q671NKxHn9lgUSCUYi7dIwjjlI1la1TxSb-lXq60Y3A) (https://docs.google.com/file/d/0BzXVUI3-70ddSXBpQnVvQW1TZ1U/edit).
But I would ask for someone to generate the complete file as the files available on the SBFand not just the update.
Thks a lot my friends.
I think trhat's 4.4, not 4.4.2 . since I already have this Build on my Moto X and it's 4.4.
Is real 4.4.2
Enviado de meu XT1058 usando Tapatalk
I got the 4.4.2 notification too. Will download and extract this weekend
If I have root and TWRP unlocked boot, bootloop give me the update? Or I can update via OTA without problems?
Sory for my bad english.

Do not update with TWRP and all other stuff - you will brick your phone. Install full 4.4 from the scratch by RDSLite and the update. I made it but I do not receive update yet, the system says that I have last software available

You don't care about root?
It's a real 4.4.2 OTA update.
If you have a custom recovery or a rooted phone you will get a bootloop.
You need to install 4.4 retail brasil firmware first, then you can push the OTA.

Well depends if 4.4.2 is rootable or not. Is there anything different in rooting 4.2 and 4.4?
Real problem is: Bootloader version is different. Play between 4.2 and 4.4 and 4.4.2 might be not so nice.

4.4.2 is absolutely the same in rooting as 4.4 or 4.2.2 - TWRP through ADB and supersu 1.91 after that - that is all
What about BL versions? I can't find information on that, just know that 4.4.2 got new BL.

Yes boot is new but it does not mean that it is impossible to root device. Go back to 4.2.2 will be impossible as I know (up to now at least) and that is all
Well then makes no sense to flash 4.4 since I already have 4.4 and I can't update to 4.4.2 because of the bootloader being TWRP. If the flashing of 4.4 won't change the bootloader, then makes no difference.
And all this problem is due to Motorola stupidity to forbid flashboot boot command. We cannot boot into a difference recover, we can only flash a different recovery and have it permanently in the memory of the phone. If flashboot boot was possible we could boot into TWRP and maintain original recovery, just like inserting a CD to boot the computer.
The 4.4.2 is totally rooteable, the method is very simple,
Put your phone in fastboot mode and flash the twrp 2.6.3.1-ghost-4.4.img then in fastboot select recovery(thats open twrp) then go to reboot/ system and give the option to root, select that, tour phone will boot with root acces

No dude. It only works with locked bootloader. The exact one you have.
P.S. Oh and you are not suppose to do that over 4.2, but over 4.4. Update to 4.4 first, then 4.4.2.

It would be nice to have a 4.4.2 full file or a 4.4.2 flashable through CWM. I'm at a limbo. I'm with unlocked bootloader at 4.4 with the 4.4.2 bootloader and can't RSD flash 4.4 because of it.

2. please install kernel with working recovery for your device, (e.g CM kernel etc)
3. turn on into recovery mode
4. flash supersu via recovery
5. DON'T reboot your device but power off your device in recovery
6. install again stock kernel 4.3 (ONLY) from ftf stock firmware Jelly Bean 4.3 (exclude all system file, except kernel)

At step 5 how can you flash ftf file in recovery mode ? This must be done in flashmode instead
By this way, it show me the error:"there is no SU binary installed,..." how to solve this problem?
After trying several time, I get everything done

A couple questions:
If I am rooted on CM10.2, can just proceed from step 5 or do I have to flash SuperSU even though I'm already rooted?
How do I properly power off my device in recovery?
What are all the individual steps in your step 6?
the kernel from leakead version is the same from final and in developement exist one with integrated cwm

It's working perfectly.
But, for example, you need a boot.img from Cyanogenmod to install through fastboot. Then you'll be able to flash supersu.zip
