NON ROOTED brick - AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

As the title says the phone has not been rooted and has bricked itself. It can get to the download screen but that's about it. Odin doesn't recognize it and not sure how to flash the stock rom back on it to get it back up and running. Anyone run into this issue before.? See image for what shows up on the screen. Thanks.

update: was able to hav odin recognize the phone. I've tried this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2703006 with both the .pit and without plus the 4 files with no luck. still just restarts to same screen.

Somethings not right. If you flash the pit file make sure you flash all 4 files. I dont see a reason why it shouldnt work. If it still has that after you flash boot into recovery and factory reset. It should work. Its easy to soft brick than to hard brick. As long as you can get into download mode you should be fine.

I dont know then. Only thing i would suggest is make sure you have downloaded the latest samsung drivers. Last time i couldnt get it to recognize i downloaded the latest samsung mobile drivers and tried every usb port. I also gave it a break for about 10 or 15 minutes with the phone off and it worked too. Dont know why but it did. Hope that helps. Cheers mate

It goes straight to download screen or before this you got option to press volume up or down? Did you try to get to recovery mode by pressing combination of volume up , home button and power button then let all go when samsung logo show up with little blue writing on left top of phone. If you get to recovery try to clean cache. If you can't and after you try to flash back to stock still going straight to download mode must be hardware issue.

Why do the newer users call anything that doesn't boot properly "Bricked ?"
Believe me you'll know when and if your ever able to successfully achieve it....
Your not even rooted..lmfao

I used clockwork mod and formatted all of the options including system and etc etc
UnBrickable mod is easier then 3 button fixes or jigs.. Simply remove the battery, replace the battery, plug into USB, then click the "Download Mode" button. After that, use a Heimdall One-Click to flash software. There's no fooling around with timing or trying to get the order correct, or anything... it just goes into download mode every time.
Just thought I'd put that in here. I like UBM, it's great.
I did the same, you found the solution?
I followed the same "idiot" guide of how to flash it into recovery or back to the stock version.
Screen at & t appears and restarts again and again.
I can't enter in the download mode. I tried all the combinations of the 3 buttons and nothing.
You could find a solution? help please..

You have a few options and these options are as much as we can help you here.
1) Keep trying the button combos. It just might work one of these times. If you ever get it into download mode then try to flash it back to stock immediately.
2) Buy a Jig. They are available for cheap and will probably help you out. They force your phone into download mode and will allow you to flash it then.
3) Do the unbrickable mod. This involves sending your phone off for a few days, spending some cash, and having it worked on. It will come back in working order and there are even ways to have the person who worked on it flash a custom rom for you.
These are your options. And honestly, more than telling you the above, I dont think there is much more help we can offer here.
EDIT: Holy hell I just realized this post is from April. I just wasted a few minutes typing all of that. Damn.

[Q] Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830D - Semi-bricked - Need Help!

Hey All,
So I'm in the process of helping a friend with his Galaxy Ace from Koodo. As it turns out the phone looks like it's semi-bricked but we may be mistaken all together so here goes:
My buddy tried using SuperOneClick to root his device however half way through the process, it froze and when he restarted his device, it hangs at the Samsung logo during the startup boot sequence.
1. When using a combination of UP Arrow + Home button + Power, he receives a message stating:
"RAMDUMP Mode
(ARM9 mode)"
In this mode he cannot do very much however his PC does recognize the device. Odin does not work in this mode.
2. When using a combination of DOWN arrow + Home button + Power, he received 2 different screens. The first is a bright pink colored screen that states:
"Warning!
A custom OS can cause critical problem in phone and installed applications. If you want to download a custom OS, press Volume UP key. Otherwise, press Volume DOWN key to cancel."
Pressing the down arrow brings him back to the frozen Samsung logo on startup however when pressing the UP arrow, the phone goes into "Downloading..." mode. In this mode, Odin DOES work.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now for the troubleshooting we've done. We managed to find a few articles online that asked us to use the Odin tool. We downloaded a few different sets of the files needs (Cooper.ops, CODE, MODEM, CSC & BOOT). Odin then detects the phone in 'Downloading..." mode and proceeds to installing the rom. It completes successfully however it does not reboot. The screen simply flashes with the Samsung logo again.
The original firmware build before the device stopped working ended with TLKI4.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Can anyone suggest anything else we can try?
2. Do you know if the bootloader needs to be flashed first and if so, how?
Note: We can not take the device back to Koodo as it was purchased on Kijiji and no receipt was provided. It's the GT-S5830D.
Thanks in advance,
1- boot into recovery and try to wipe data and cache. u can enter recovery mode by pressing home+power.
2- it doesnt matter, u already flashed new bootloader by flashing the phone via odin.
btw does the "D" in "GT-S5830D" bring any different in hardware with international regular GT-S5830 that most of us here use?
if its different by somehow, u shouldnt flash generic international GT-S5830 rom into it. i know for sure that galaxy ace korean version cannot use generic rom from international galaxy ace.
yep there are some 5830D specific roms on sammobile.. try them instead of generic ace

Can you point me to a certain rom/boot loader to download from sammobile? I was there earlier this morning however I didn't see any mention of Canada anywhere and I left before I messed things up further.
Even if you could just tell me which one it is I have to download, I'll do the rest myself.
Thanks a bunch!

There is no option to wipe the device. In fact, I have had other Galaxy S models and I'm pretty familiar with the screen however the Ace does not load into that recovery. Either it goes to "Downloading.." or "RAMDUMP (Arm9 mode)".
Thanks
well seems like sammobile haven't got for 5830L
but not to worry alternative site has one specifically rare rom of "D"

Thanks buddy! I tried that exact ROM however it didn't seem to work either. I used the 'Coopers_V1.0.ops" file under the "OPS" option in Odin and the "S5830DTLKI4_S5830DTLSKI4_S5830DTLKI4_HOME.tar.md5" file under the "One Package" option. Like I said before, the flash went through in "Downloading..." mode, and Odin said "PASS" however, when it came time for the phone to reboot itself, the screen started flashing and did nothing new. Same Samsung logo appears and it seems to hang right there.
Also I dont think the device has a same recovery menu anymore because even though I hold down the Home + Power buttons, it does nothing. It simply flases the screen at the Samsung logo screen.
Any other tips for me to try? Thanks again!
wierd that u cannot enter recovery mode while u can enter download mode and successfully flash it using odin.
even if u messed up recovery when u first use superoneclick earlier, flashing via odin should also flash it with new fresh recovery. so how long did u hold the home+power? i'm asking just to be sure. maybe u not hold it long enough for recovery mode to kick in.

I held it down for more than a minute just to make sure. As soon as I put the battery back in and try and restart the phone, it goes into an infinite loop at the Samsung screen.
Even I find it odd that the phone will go into Downloading mode but not recovery.
Any other suggestions?
try to install qtadb (google for it). connect the phone with pc via usb, launch qtadb and boot the phone. qtadb should display some logcat. paste the logcat output here. maybe we might have a clue whats wrong by looking into the logcat
but even if phone still stuck, just wait a few moment. if qtadb had access to the phone system via its native filemanger, it means u can use adb. use adb to reboot phone into recovery

As far as I can tell QtADB isn't even detecting the phone. I have tried to complete the procedure over and over however no show. I may not have installed ADB correctly though so I'll give it a shot again a little later.

[Q] Is my GT_i9000 dead?

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.

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

flashing stock firmware problems

Hi all,
I'm having an odd issue. No matter whether I used Odin or Smart Switch I can simply not flash a stock firmware. Regardless of the method, the following always happens.
Downloads firmware to device
Reboots
Shows Android dude with "Installing update"
Stops half way through
Shows Android dude with "Erasing"
Disappears after few seconds
Reboots
Nothing is changed. Same as before the whole process...

Make sure you uncheck auto reboot in Odin! Do not allow it to reboot the phone! Flash the stock firmware again and after it says success unplug the phone and immediately press and hold the volume down button and power button at the same time and when the screen comes back on select factory reset and after its finished the phone will reboot on it's own and you're done it should work correctly.

That's because you are trying to to root it I'm guessing? You either flashed the wrong kernel, or you actually did not turn on oem unlock in developer options. You'll need to restore it back to stock and then turn on oem unlock then flash a kernel/recovery and then retry what you're trying to do.

Shoot sorry I should have mentioned that it was going to erase everything (I found out the hard way to lol) But even if I had known that I wouldn't have been able to get them back anyway once you can't get in to change the settings to file transfer..

Sorry I don't have time to help you work through this. But you're not bricked. Do the process again. Try switching up your usb ports and cables. Try clicking the bootloader check and try loading the csc file when you flash everything. And hold the buttons longer than you think you should to return to download mode. Galaxy Note 8 screen is normal. You are likely already rooted and can get away with only redoing the second part.

You've tried all these things? You've restarted your phone? It seems you are really pretty close and could just power through. But I don't see any reason you can't return to stock. That may take you longer if you don't have the file and if you don't know how to get back.

Thats what i did.
1rst. Flash system tar. + Pit
I wait, until the process says FAILED.
After this failed message my phone just stuck on Download mode and dont restart by itself. I decide to use combo to power it off and turn it on again into download mode.
2nd.
I place the other 3 files in odin And flash it, following the steps from Samfail thread.
Reboot and get stuck on this screen now what can be ?

I place the other 3 files in odin And flash it, following the steps from Samfail thread.
Reboot and get stuck on this screen now what can be ?

on part 1 it NEEDS to reboot to upload on its own. you had a failed flash. try again.
EDIT: also pic 1 is showing what happens with a failed part1 flash.
Any success?

Im having the same issue. after part 1 my phone stays in download mode. Ive tried to reflash it does nothing. Maybe this has been answered already and i am missing something? thx in advance
I had that happen to me to. I waited 5 or 10 min and it rebooted on its own. How long did you wait?

My one phone in the past similar situation. This method worked for me^ Sometimes even had to wait longer.

I would Odin back to stock and start over. When it happened to me I had to use regular Odin to flash it. And then I started over and got it to work.

Thanks for the info, ill give it a go and report back.
Still trying to flash rev2.5 maybe thats where i went wrong? Its too late now. I can only get into upload and download mode. Trying to flash stock but having fail issues in reg odin and comsy. Im actually so lost now that I dont even know what to flash. Bricked? Anyone have any ideas? Ive tried everything i have seen on this thread and others with no luck. My phone displays all of the same pictures as in page 1. Im have ATT if that helps.
Thanks and sorry if i misread something to get to where i am now. Ive been doing different root methods since i had a droid x. Never had this issue before when flashing with odin. Ive always worked my way out. Maybe i need a break.....

now, after trying to get back into download mode and the samsung logo popped up and was flashing from light to dark. after about 5 minutes it said "android is starting", a few minutes later it went to a charging screen. now i cant get anywhere... lol..
battery died
Charge the phone leave it in charger.
Get into download mode and flash your stock image with Prince comsy Odin with the data bootflag and the bootloader flag ticket, you can do this by adding a 1 in the .ini file. Flash the stock image and then reboot
Then if you want try to flash again the 2.5 version
If you are an unlocked carrier make sure to flash the csc file I posted in the samfail thread somewhere
I had the same problem you had until I flashed the unlocked csc file

Same here but WORSE
The same thing happened to me except mine doesn’t have that message on second screen that yours does it reboots and system mount failure and to top it all off IT ENABLED FRP LOCK SECRURE FOLDER ALL THAT how can I possibly. Bypass this so I can reflash the stock firmware I do root phones as a side hustle I’m pretty well known I’m my town for being the tech guy. This isn’t my phone but I DO have the email and password I just can’t disable the frp is there a way UCSB deactivate it on my google account perhaps?
