[Q] How to unbrick - AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there any way to restore the device to a working state(on NB4 Jellybean)? Recovery mode does not work, and I can't even boot past the Samsung logo. I only have access to ODIN mode. Any help is appreciated.

The revert to MJ5 thread that is located in the general section. That may get you out of your bind.

Thank you for the fast response. Is there any way to do the MJ5 restore method without an external SD card?

Well... In your case, no. You will need to use an External SD card because you currently can't mount the internal.

In certain version of cwm, external and internal was swapped around. You look in both?
And it has to be zip file to be flashed with cwm.

Wiped my internsl memory by accident.

I remembered a little while back a thread to get me back and running. This is for my htc one. Anyone know the link. I hit the search bar and I think I just too nervous to focus and find it.

Use ADB to sideload a rom then you can transfer your TWRP backup to the device and go from there.
here is the guide to sideload

Don't you have to physically type yes in to wipe your internal memory?
can't you just boot into recovery, mount Internal memory, copy ROM into your phone and flash the rom?
I have never been in that situation but what about this:
I know that in TWRP recovery there is an option to acces USB OTG. I have one of those little adapters that I connect to my flash drive to save my nandroids and stuff like that. If you wiped your INTERNAL and EXTERNAL storage would you simple be able to mount the USB OTG and flash a ROM from it?
I'm guessing that it wouldn't be that simple...however, if anyone has any actual info on this please share.

Easiest way is to download the toolkit and sideload a rom

Problem with brand new Note 3 and safestrap

Please I need some help! I just got a Note 3 today (I had a Note 3 when it first came out) and installed safestrap to it. I put a rom on my 64gb card and backed up the stock rom and then wiped all data, system, cache, etc. and when I tried to flash the rom it failed. I tried to do my restore and that failed also. I rebooted to recovery from safestrap and it went to the factory recovery. When I try to reboot the phone it just sits at the Samsung screen with the custom and lock icon. I don't know what to do. I think its the 64gb card that wouldn't allow the rom to be flashed or the restore to work. Is there an odin back to mj5? I think it's the only thing I can do.

I was able to restore to mj5. Do you know if there is a problem with 64gb sdhc 10 micro sd cards or flashing roms to the stock rom slot?
Flash from the internal. Report back

After a lot of playing around I think it is safer to use a 32GB for flashing or internal. Sometimes recovery doesn't play nice with a 64GB.
i would always recommend flashing from the internal with safestrap. just seems to be more stable. keep the file on your Ext for safe keeping but copy it to your internal for flashabilty<<<

Ugh ok...

So I got tired of low memory so I backed up my stock slot and wiped then installed alliance rom on stock slot and now my backups are gone in twrp bit in root browser they're still under twrp backups any idea how to make them show up in recovery?

I would've suggested trying to copy the backup you see in root browser to the external sd, you mentioned you installed to stock slot and wiped and every now and then ss does that, sometimes it erases your internal sd and maybe what you see in root browser are the "corpse" of the backup you made. Try to get an ex sd will save you a lot of headache in the future.

[Q] Note 3 MJ5 Bootloop, what do i do?

I was experiencing problems with my rooted mj5 so i used that popular thread on how to revert to stock mj5. Everything went smooth, but im still having the bootloop problems. The custom lock logo is gone on bootup so i know its true stock mj5 now, but my loader hangs on the ATT animation logo for a bit then keeps restarting. This process goes on and off for a few times until it manages to pull itself through. Should i call ATT for a replacement or is this fixable?
Went into recovery mode and cleared cach - didnt work
Went into recovery mode and did a factory reset - didnt work
f*ck.
Did you flash the 2400258.zip file in the stock recovery?

This. I've reverted back to mj5 multiple times and never got into a bootloop. Don't take it back to AT&T for your mess up. That's fraud.

As i stated above the factory reset does not work. I noticed the main problem was coming from the sd card slot. It doesnt matter what sd card is in there, it will cause the phone to lose signal and enter a weird bootloop. A few hours ago i re installed mj5 and did every step to get a 100% new stock again. The 16gb and 32gb class 10 sd card will cause my phone problems. The main problems are bootloops and if i go to make a call, the service bar will turn to an O with a slash until i end the call so i can not call anyone while my sd card is installed.
Im considering just updating to kitkat and if it has problems from there then i know the phone has hardware issues, then off to AT&T it goes...
