[Q] Soft Brick after Dead Battery - AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok so I had my Note 3 battery completely drain and now am soft bricked and it freezes at ATT logo.
note 3
ATT
rooted on 4.3 JB
titanium backup installed
I have tried everything to no avail. Reflashing, factory reset, everything and am completely lost. I tried this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2559715 , but the microsoft visual stuff would never install??
I have owned iphones for 5 years and recently switched to droid again. I am 7/10 on a technical scale with computers. Any and all help is greatly appreciated as I am stuck with a paper weight for now.

Anyone? Please?

Thats not what I was hoping for lol will they give me any problems?

They might if they see it is rooted. Due to liability
But these guys aren't exactly high end technicians with high paying jobs just normal people say please and explain they can't make it worse.

Wow. Tricky one right there. Usually a stock firmware flash would do it. Anything else that you've done to your phone before the battery went dry ?

If you can get it to flash back to stock I would try that because not having stock would void warranty even if it is software...if cant I would try flashing cognition 4.0 or older cuase it looks close to stock.

Use this cwm file to flash back to jh7 and all will be good

Also get a reliable computer...
Especially if you're going to be messing with your phone. It is very likely that something could happen and the only way to fix it would be to connect to a pc and use odin/heimdall

May want to return it for another

Galaxy note Help **REWARD**

Dear all,
I have recently rooted my Samsung galaxy note using this method:www .cursed4eva.com/root-galaxy-note/ which worked very well and i had no issues.
I then installed Beats audio pro from the play store and thats when i started to get issues like crashes and such so i uninstalled the app, then thats when i started to get a error message saying "Process system not responding" which would result in me losing control of my keyboard and i completely lost service and was unable to make calls etc(O2 UK).
I then performed a factory wipe and cleared the cache but this has made matters worse now when i reboot it only shows up for a couple of minutes then shows the "process system not responding" error message then goes to a blank screen with only the two lights at the bottom showing and i cant use my phone at all.
Please Help ill paypal anyone who can get my phone to work again.
Oh and Hi im Nathan nice to meet you all
Put the phone in download mode. Use pc odin to flash latest ICS rom.
Please PayPal Nokia model n91 10 million dollars or 5 million euros. Whatever is easier for u

Not sure what the point of the last thread was. It's possible that the hot fixed had a virus? Be careful about the sites you choose for Android tweaks, it's incredibly susceptible to viruses. I could be way off here.

Am I missing something here. Where did the virus come from?
It's not difficult to add things into an app. They're saying that someone could have embedded a virus in what he used for root, to hijack his phone.

It's the supersu . zip from xda forums.
He did do what looks like a factory rs from stock ICS rooted.

Thats a nice situation there,
Cannot go to download mode anymore?
Then i guess its bricked, (no soft and hard brick for me since as long as ypu can recover it, its not bricked)
Suggestion =
if it still has warranty, then let sammy do their job and bring it to them,
If not , better bring it to a tech since not many experience that white screen here,

Now I found his thread here.
sweynmonillas, he has a CDMA device.
Overcome method screwed his tab for good.
Next time be careful when recommending Overcome to others.
Ouch, didn't know that.
Sorry mate,
May i ask what is the difference between his unit and those p1000's around?
sent from my nokia 3110 using sms.
Basically it has different innards and works for CDMA network.
Their ROMs are not interchangeable.
Must be treated as a different device.

by using ROM tool box (by Jrummy) it’s an awesome app but I decided to play around with the custom font option and when I tried to install another custom font it decided to reboot my phone to the LG logo and from there the screen goes black with the little indicator light on the upper right of the phone flashing multiple colors.
Fixes that i have attempted to apply where:
-multiple reboots nothing happened same results
-let the battery drain out of the phone then let it charge for a bit and restart it with no luck
-go into recovery mode to clear partition and reboot, but no luck
-go into recovery mode and apply factory reset but no luck
At the end of all these attempts I continue to get the LG LOGO and after that has played out i get a black screen with my notification indicator flashing multiple different colors.
I bet if I had an unlocked boot loader with a custom recovery I wouldn't be in this situation right now. Now I have to go thru hyelton Guide on how to revert back to Stock Firmware, and to my new-bish eyes it doesn't look easy.

I’m glad I’m putting $10 towards the bounty, but if I was in a better financial situation I would most definitely put in a $100
Damn sorry to hear that man!!!!!
We need more donations people !!!!!
We probably don't. It sounds like they already have this accomplished and are polishing it up still.

I went into the freenode chat last night and asked how the unlocked boot loader was coming and said I could offer assistance because I have a spare g flex that I can brick or what not, and I was told to be patient that it was coming.

I just went through the process. I had a soft brick last night from a build.Prop edit couldn't fix it until just now. LG made it tougher, but not horrible. Follow the guide step by step and if you need help post in that thread I'll subscribe to it or pm me, don't want to clutter up this thread.
By the way great to hear a solution is in sight. Remember when this happens, dint take any otas.... Like ever afterwards.
