hi there...just superbricked my n7000 n got recover by using manual re-partition...after manually repartition i notice that about 3gb space on internal storage cannot be use that we called bad sector...now i just have about 9gb internal storage...is there other guide or technic to gain the 3gb bad sector back...
sory for my english...
Don't know if it would work or not, bad sects ore are usually marked as such due to being physically unusable, but you could run e2fsck (Google it) via terminal emulator. Or run DD (again, Google) with dev/null being the source file, that would wipe out any corrupted data, may have to be run more than once, two seems to be the magic number when used to do a routine wipe on my phone.

By repartition you will get your note working again, but *will* loose about 3gb of your internal memory. No solution to it.
Even if you do manage to unmark the bad sectors, it will just get your phone to the position it was in before you repatitioned. I think it will be as good as bricked again.
Better option, if your binary count is zero, you are on stock kernel and your note is under warranty, get it replaced under warranty.

Use "triangle away" download from google play. It will reset binary count to zero and remove yellow triangle.
After that brick it again and send to ssc for claim new mobo.

Please make sure you know how to fool ssc staff. They will ask you what u did with the phone.
You can simply answer that you totally do nothing and the phone totally no respond at the morning.

Hi All,
Recently I've also super-bricked my phone. I've tried reparation by pit but I loose precious 3GB from Internal memory.
then again I've bricked my phone and gave to SSC. Hope I get e-mmc replaced.
BTW
I'm from INDIA. I told SSC that I was just upgrading my phone and they said it is "dangerous" to upgrade phone at home .
Edit: Got my phone from SSC with new board.

Since you can go into download mode, why not try to flash any stock ROM using Odin PC and see if can boot up..

Actually i did, but was stucked at the factoryfs.img
uh, thats bad. you can hard brick it again with "franco kernel". Ask chainfire, as he had flashed the chinese-leak ics bootloader, his note went from GT-N7000 to GT-I9220. He actually extra hard bricked his note (i assume by flashing nonsense to bootloader partition) and sent it to samsung for repair. A while ago flashing "franco kernel" was a guarantee for dead note (even the screen went blank - no dowload mode, no jig mode)

i just wanna reset the counter and i will send it to samsung again as they already told me that the warranty is OVER (( and i have to pay almost 400$ to replace the motherboard
If they are charging you anyway I can't see the problem. What does it matter what the counter is,if it is out of warranty ?

Uh, thats even worse. 400,- for replacing mobo is quite a lot. here in Germany you can buy a brand new Note for 350,-€
If you just want to reset the flash counter, you can try the method with jig by flashing the SGS2 Bootloader and then returning to SGN Bootloader. Sneaky point: when you´re on SGS2 bootloader, you have to navigate blind, due to black screen. there is an tutorial around here...

If you are able to enter download mode,then flash angelom kernel so that it will reset the binary count and removes yellow triangle in a bricked phone
I tried for the download link but i am unable to get it
Search for angelom..pm him so that he could send you the kernel link
I think he is the one who created that kernel

So I tried rooting my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 SM-N900A with Odin but it went wrong somewhere along the way and now the phone won't start up. When I try to start up, the screen says "firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again" But when I tried to recover in Kies, it always gets to the end and then says that the PC can't recognize my mobile device. I can still access download mode but that's about it. I have tried looking EVERYWHERE and there is no solution! someone please help! D:
Also, I found something online that says that I can recover through Odin and I went through the whole process but when I start flashing, it says FAIL so that didn't work for me either
Did you use RDLV on MJ5 to root? If so, that's probably what bricked you.

That just showed off why your phone got bricked. Rooting a phone got some responsibility. Let this be a lesson for you and read before you root. You will need to download the stock firmware and flash this through Odin. I guess you still can enter Download mode?
Wi-Fi Issues
I also need some help here... I did successfully root my note 3, however whenever I install a custom rom such as knoxraid or azure, my wi-fi will not work at all.
The wi-fi will be on from a clean flash, but once I try to connect to any network (I've only tried those with passwords), the wi-fi grays out and I can no longer turn it on or off. I haven't encountered anyone else with the same problem, and I have tried deleting the rom partitions and recreating them.
Disclaimer: I don't have enough posts to post in the dev forums, so that's why I'm posting here. Sorry about that.
Dearest Becky, im so sorry girl..
butchya may be fuct for a lil while let me tell ya why..
This same thing happened to me!!
I looked everywhere for an easy solution BUT THERE IS NONE !! Yet.
The reason why is because there are no easy "Odin back to stock files" yet is because at&t is a fn a-hole and locked the bootloader !!
I brikt my shıt about 4 days after I brought it home from costco.
I combed through the interwebs for the 48 hrs straight like a mad tweaker!! because of course this is our 800 dollar babies we're talking about !!
I kept getting the same error message as you are mentioning about the kies update connect your pc blah and so I tool it back to costco and played dumb and said that I got a notification to update and clicked ok and it did some stuff and "now its stuck on this screen with some error??" .. the lady at the kiosk looked it up and down and said someone else had come in last week with the same error message . LoL !!
I walked out of there with a brand new baby !!
Maybe you can do the same thing? Just hoping you are within your return timeframe.
your last but definitely not last worst case scenerio option is to stick your sim card in another phone and wait till someone from our awesome family here finds away around/through that damn bootloader and drops the beautiful Odin+files to give new birth to your 5.7 beast of an angel !!
Hope this helped in any sort of way. Good luck dear Sister!!
Please let us know how it goes. I think there are many brothers and sisters desperate as F and in ypur same predicament.
This is your best bet.

Glad it worked
For anyone Reading this thread for similar issues
What probably happened is she attempted to root de LA Vega method while she was on firmware mj5 rdlv method is based on mi9 and die to this it will soft brick your device.
Unfortunately att diff not release an Odin file for mj5 or even put it on kies.
One of or members figured out how to fiddle with the files we have access to to flash a hybrid of mi9 and mj5
Making it possible to more or less recover from an mj5 brick.
Follow his steps completely and you will wind up with a stock rooted os.
But since this is such an odd way to recover I chose to use kingo to root.
Xda doesn't support kingo dir to hour closed they are in their methods and the fact it is not apparent how they are funding themselves. so you'll have to Google it. It was one of the easiest root methods I've done on a device it installs chainfires su. It is completely removable and I personally believe it is the lest chance of a brick method.

Not clear what you have done; would help us here to know what steps you've taken then everyone here may have other suggestions. If it's software related and just requires the appropriate flash you might be able to take it to one of the samsung experience centers in Best Buy or you can try their new hangouts support offering and see what they say.
Or just Odin back to NCE. Just leave out the bootloader file or it will fail.

I'm just curious. You wasn't using a Mac were you?
I purchased a T-mobile Note 4 and connected it to Cricket. I have no issues using the phone but I have a pop up for Tmobile software update that keeps popping up. The update will not download, I assume because Im not on Tmobiles network. I would love to find a way to remove all Tmobile settings and have Cricket updates come to my phone. Is this even possible?

Cricket can't give you updates for a phone it didn't sell. You can use Odin to update your device if you want to. If you're willing to root your device, then you can get rid of the nagging.

It's pretty hard to brick (as in I haven't heard of anyone not being able to recover) because you can just use Odin to go back to stock. Just use Odin to root/add TWRP. I think if you're on 5.1.1 you have to also use a different kernel. Instructions should be with the root thread. Just follow the directions and you will be fine.

There is a system-less root method available that does not require a custom kernel. Don't know why you keep getting the update message, as 5.1.1 is the current version. Root is very easy on this phone, plus you can enable tethering on Cricket. As said above, it is almost impossible(almost) to actually brick this phone.
