[Q] Stuck at Samsung logo after trying to upgrade my note to N7000XXLPY

Hello,
I wanted to update my Note to official german ICS (N7000XXLPY) using Odin. After going through th whole process:
extracting, wiping, putting in download mode, chosing N7000XXLPY in PDA and starting, it took some 5 to 8 minutes until odin finished with
"REMOVED!" and the phone restarted with new ICS boot animation.
Now it's stucked on SAMSUNG logo. I've tried to reboot a few times but nothing changes. ANy help would be apreciated.
Thanks,
BruXav
Sorry for posting my q on wrong place!!
ps: the rookie I am forgot to enable debug mode before going through this :-(

Lol I answered you there and also said post in relevant thread, sorry

Thank you for your help and patience ;-)
When I do the combo home+power+volume down I can only volume up to enter downloading mode or cancel. I go to download but what to do next?
It says downloading...do not turn off target but nothing about factory reset.
Thank you so much!!!
Sorry I'm new here

I had same problem.. Boot into CWM, not download mode, and factory reset worked for me.

Thanks but how do you get in CWM mode if you can't get into the phone?
Any other button combo I don't know?
The only thing I ca do is reboot in download mode

CWM = Vol UP + Home + Power

Did you update this way to official ICS?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=25947847&postcount=4
If you already did above, then try this:
0. Disconnect USB
1. Power off
2. Hold vol+ & home & power, let go of power once you see Samsung logo
3. You'll be in a special recovery mode. From here you can choose factory reset.

Yeah, I thought maybe you skipped something. I had CheckROM v6 on mine, it's was gingerbread rom. I did a PC Odin upgrade using the stock ICS, and everything was still there working. I did do another factory reset tonight from the settings and not in the recovery menu. Could it be a corrupted download of stock ICS? Some people were saying if you had a custom ICS before, this method won't work. Are you able to put back stock gingerbread?

I have this same problem. Cant get past samsung logo. I tried flashing several times, did factory reset, just wont work. I flashed using heimdall, not odin, would that make a difference?

Flashed back to 2.3.6, that works fine. Tried reflashing official ics, same problem, stuck at samsung logo. Factory reset in cwm does not work. Any ideas?

Hey buddy, I had the same problem tonight when I tried to restart my phone after a build.prop update - changing the wifi interval from 15 to 120... doh!
Got stuck at the boot screen and so out of desperation I decided to wipe, it didnt work. I was still stuck.
So I flashed XXLC1 (Open Euro) from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997 with PC Odin and it came back ok . I lost root though but thats no biggie, at least I have a working phone now.
Hope that helps you. Good Luck!

i9001 bricked?

Hi guys, i gonna tell you about how my i9001 was stuck in a bootloop. Maybe you could help me. I'm sick of it.
Cause: I installed cm10 and cwm5 or 6 as recovery and upgrade my device using Ota Updater. When I restarted my i9001, it got stuck in a bootloop.
What my i9001 can display: It can access to rampdump mode and download mode. In case I try to turn on my i9001 or access to recovery mode the Samsung logo/word is shown twice and stops showing anything else. It often gets stuck showing the typical grey battery flat (with a loading stopped) and the black screen alternately. This is caused when I a disconnect the USB cable from my computer/laptop.
Attempts: i've tried everything except for the right solution. Lots of forum threads and nothing works for me. I've tried:
1.- Boot_loader for device boot.
2.- I've flashed an stock rom: XXKQP, and 2 more: BVKPC y XXKQ1. Each one are official.
3.- And then recovery-clockwork-5.5.0.4 and -6.0.1.2.
4.- I've tried, then, flashing feamodrecovery 1.2.
5.- Nothing works for me.
I've been using Odin 4.43. AriesVE in OPS section and when flashing these roms: one package. For recovery packages: one package and pda (I tried these two options).
I can't reach at recovery mode. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Greetings!

When phone boots there's nearlz always a solution
Sent from my GT-I9001 using xda app-developers app

slow--welder59, any of these solutions helped me. I tried with any other combination of combos but nothing happened. I didn't know to use adb method. I installed adb drivers but it didn't detect my device. When I entered to download mode and pressed Install (in the program) tried to download something but it stopped.
Any suggestion?

Can anyone help me? I want to exhaust all possible options.

What happens when you try to format data from recovery...?
If you get some errors, write them here...
If everything goes well, then it is not what im expecting (in that case problem is probably easier to solve)...

Yes I can, and that's the reason why I don't give up hope. However, I've tried installing some stock roms and recoveries and nothing worked for me.

Try one of the following (or both even if your desperate):

http://broodplank.net/old/flashsamsungi9001.php (skip chapter 5 as it doesn't apply) [if that doesn't work]
edit:: USB Drivers: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=961956

stepie22, thank you for your help. Nothing worked for me.
First link: another typical manual for installing a stock rom via Odin. During the process my device powered off. It was supposed to reboot. After the process ended, i disconnected it from PC and its screen showed a grey empty battery (with a loading in the middle) and word "Samsung" alternatively.
Second link: this was the solution for my first brick. Then, my device showed this yellow triangle. This second time is annoying me. I haven't found any solution to change, at least, the behaviour of my device.
Any other different solution? Thnks guys.

See this ... if that is the triangle, find that part on the wiki page.

Maybe your device got the eMMC Bug?
Normally your Device would be hardbricked if you "over" flashed.
If nothing works out try this:
Have a look in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2224029
Download CWM Recovery 6.0.2.8 ODIN Package and flash it in "Download Mode" the regular way (AriesVE.ops and onepackage).
Then maybe you are able to enter Recovery Mode again...
This might be not your problem, but you could give it a try:
Some people had issues with rebooting in recovery, so there is a fix in this post

[Q] My S3 Mini is stuck on the first screen and won't boot!

Hello,
Today my phone was functioning normally until I decided to launch a game (Jewels Star or something like that) that I always play normally.
But today when I entered it the phone froze and shut down by itself and now everytime I try to turn it on it gets stuck on the first screen that appears! (Samsung Galaxy S III mini GT-I8190)
My phone is not rooted and no Rom is flashed. I haven't done anything to it.
What can I do to fix the problem?! Please help!!

remove battery for some minutes then try, if not
boot into recovery and wipe cache, if not, wipe data, if not
flash your stock firmware

How to wipe cache in recovery mode? I can only go to download mode by holding the home and the volume down buttons.
and how to flash the stock's firmware?

if it didnt work, flash attached .tar file (unzip before) as pda in odin. (it will wipe your data)

it would have been easier if you had rooted your phone. in that way you can hard reset the phone by pressing the VOLUME DOWN + POWER for 15sec, after which you press the HOME KEY and then follow the pop up to continue.

The s3 mini cant be put into recovery mode using buttons so you have to download the android sdk from google, right click adb folder, open in command prompt and type in reboot recovery.

I have little bit higher problem!
I was flashing custom rom and i t was flashed when i tried to start phone it was just looking like dead phone no reactions anything please help

Is there a way to wipe the data through Odin. If I try through recovery mode then the phone crashes and restarts immediately. In fact if I try to do any of the operations that touch Data then it crashes and restarts the phone. Thanks

my Samsung galaxy s 111 mini gt-18190 stuck on Samsung logo what should i do

Can't flash Stock Rom.

Hi,
I have a problem with gt-i8190. It has a gesture lock, which I've forgotten.
So I thought I could wpie data/factory reset, but I cant't enter Recovery Mode.
I tried this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...&highlight=cwm (the 2mb part)
While flashing with ODIN, it seemed to work. Odin succeeded.
But on S3 Mini Screen I got this error message: "movi-write card_status:2 ...."
After Reboot, nothing changed.
Phone boots up normally. Gesture lock is still there.
Same happens if I flash a whole stock rom via ODIN. I tried this stock ROM: HOME_I8190XXAMG4_I8190OXAAMG4_1332988_REV00_user_l ow_ship.tar.md5
After flash, nothing changed.
Maybe someone is willing to help?
Thanks in advance.

No luck.
Still getting "card_status:2 (xxx) start (xxxx)"
And the phone is "freezed":
- it boots up, let me whatever I want...
- but NO changes are saved.
I tried to upload lots of ROMs (officials and not) with ODIN, but allways the same: the flash seems to be protected.
I even tried the USB jig, but nothing.
Any idea?

Try the full 2-file firmware together with pit-file and re-partition ticked in odin.
If that won't work I guess your nand is damaged.

It is pretty hard to brick these phones. Just in case you have a bad file or something. Grab the zip and follow these instructions. I know that all these files in this zip are good so it is worth a shot.
Even if you know what you are doing, follow the instructions exactly, you may be overlooking something. It happens to everyone sometimes.

After you odin whichever firmware you flashed, wait about 10 min or so on that boot screen that is stucked. Then pull the battery out. Go into stock recovery but power+home+vol up. Then select wipe data/reset. Reboot and it should boot just fine.
At least that's how i fixed my phone that stuck few times like what you going through.

The problem is my phone can not access to stock recovery or TWRP recovery. It just stuck at first bootscreen which is shown "Samsung Galaxy Note 4 powered by Android", then restart and stuck again. So that I can not wipe data or reset to fix.

Since you can still get into download mode, what happens if you flash TWRP through ODIN? Step 10 in the instructions I posted assuming it is still rooted or start at step 8 if not. Just to see if you can get recovery working again.

You are wasting time...start over, it's your best and quickest fix....
