[Q] Flashing CM9,1

Well,
I have a Galaxy Note on hands trying to install CM9.1. It was with Official rom ICS 4.0.3. I flashed it without doing the 3 wipes, and after I flashed the rom i tried to wipe data/factory reset. Then the phone would turn off everytime. So, I tought it must be because I didn't flash, then I'm trying to go back to GB, like the tutorial we have in XDA, but I'm stuck at NAND Write Start! Cache.img, and it doesn't proceed, no error messages.
What should I do?
help!

was the 4.0.3 rooted? did you have CWM with kernel or did you use CWM.zip?

I rooted it first, and after root i used CWM.zip file.
why?

CWM.zip file is known to cause bricks. What kernel where you on? do you remember installing a custom kernel?

msedek could be right.. if you can walk us through the procedure on how you tried to install the CM rom.. we could confirm a brick,,

1. Installed Super SU
2. Installed CWM.zip
3. Installed CM9.1
4. Wipe data/factory Reset
5. Auto reboot the device, and styck on boot screen
6. Back to Recovery
6.1 Installed Hydracore 7.0 STD
7. Wipe cache and Wipe Dalwik
8. Tried to wipe Data/factory Reset
9. Auto-reboot and yet locked on boot screen
10 Download Mode
11. trying to install GB official rom and locked in Cache writing.
I need help because it is my boss's phone. I have a galaxy note and because of this procedure that worked fine on mine I did that.
Any help to solve this hard brick?

Anyone? I need help
Really desperate here.

Installing a rom using temp cwm.zip could have done the trick to brick your phone. Anyhow. Could you paste the odin logs.

oh,
I'm not anymore in the PC where I tried Odin. But the logs were pretty usual, stopping at NAND Write Start
like this image

And I also tried to install ICS room 4.0.3. That went on till factoryfs.img, then stoped.
Super Brick? Really? How's that possible?

The stopping at "factoryfs.img" in combination with using the temporary recovery in cwm.zip is typical for a bricked device.
Please read hg42's thread for checking the bad sectors and for a workaround by repartitioning (this will exclude the bad parts from using it). But first check the eMMC with his method for errors and real confirmation of the brick.
A complete repair is only possible with a replacement of the motherboard by Samsung.

Help! Can't return to stock

Hey guys, any info on this would be great.
Have a ATT Note 3... It boots into recovery and Download mode..
Basically, I was going to install knoxraid, wiped /system /data, but didn't have the rom file to flash.
Then, rebooted phone, and it will go into stock recovery but not safestrap.
Please help... I know it can't be completely bricked.
I tried unbrick-soft-bricked-att-galaxy-note-3-sm-900a but it fails
(also, I am sure Samsung drivers are installed)

So you can't get the phone to boot normally? What happens when you try to let the phone boot up on it's on without trying to go into recovery or download mode?

Same thing happened to me once.. just took it to my nearest at&t and told them I was upgrading to kit Kat by computer thru kies and that my daughter unplugged my phone during its process and failed and they fixed it for me..free

I believe you are going to have to Odin back with the Odin JB files. Their is three of them. I see if I can find you more info as to what to do.

That would work beautifully, but I don't have safe strap installed and can't get into a ROM...
Basically, I can get into download and stock recovery mode.

Nope, I erased system and data... So, I can get into recovery and download mode.

What version of SafeStrap did you have installed ? 3.7.1 or 3.7.2

Dude. Wait. If you wiped system you have no rom..All you have to do is use your computer and download a rom and push to your sd card. Then use stock or recovery to flash. Lol. I did this on my nexus once. Anyway it's simple fix.

I would say you could revert to MJ5 link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2559715. Read it to the T. This will put the MJ5 4.3 back on your phone. You don't need safestrap to revert back to MJ5 method. You can root and install safestrap back on when its installed. Just do steps 1-9 if you don't want to root this method. don't worry about this download link ( https://mega.co.nz/#F!icMTnSQY!bMBNFmUnn2_K8olSTYpwIA (mirror provided by drakeymcmb) i'ts just a mirror for the ml9 fix.image ext4.

Alright, I'll follow this eexact. I am not new to flashing and ROM mods. (Been doing it since the s2). I normally would push via ADB, use a custom recovery and be set. But, just picked up the note 2… and ADB wouldnt detect the phone to push ROM.. (Using ADB device). So, anyways.... I know I have to use ODIN. I know its not fubard because the phone boots into download and stock recovery mode.
Thanks everyone, I really want to get this fix. Luckily I have a nexus 5 as well.

We can't use the old way to get into our or past our bootloaders. If you follow everything on revert to MJ5 steps 1-9 that should give you bootable verse of MJ5 4.3. If you still want root and stay on MJ5 ok. If you want the next software fix then don't root yet then try to get the NB4 patch then you can root with Kingo 1.18.

Bootloop Problem after flashing stock rom via SP TOOL

I tried flashing stock rom in my lenovo A7000a with lollipop version via SP Flash tool but it stuck in bootloop. Then i installed twrp recovery and root it and flash a custom rom "Androim 7" by thinking that it will solve my problem but it didn't. It still get stuck in bootloop. When it get first boot up in custom rom, for first time bootanimation get change a littel and then it get stuck again and every time i flash stock rom or custom rom it get stuck at bootanimation.

Did u enable da/dl with all checksum in spft?if not u must reflash it again with stock rom after enabling them in spft thats it ????????.???? :highfive:
Hit thanks if i helped

Yes, I have checked da dl all checksum in option->download

I did try it by download another stock rom from *Flashing Stock Rom Via SP Flash Tool[Lenovo A7000] by*PrashantRana
But it gets into bootloop.

If bootanimation appears,dont worry just wait for long time.try rebooting with battery replacement etc:both stock and androium takes a hell lot of time to boot for first time.or else you may try flashing CM roms or the nexus MM minimal ported by myself.the wont take much time to boot up :cheers

Both are same. A7000a is the model number and Lenovo A7000 Plus is official name of the Device.
I have tried two methods.
1st Method.
First I flash stock rom then I wipe data/cache/dalvik-cache.
2nd Method
I did same as above in this method but I wipe data/system/cache/dalvik-cache.
I have tried two method
1. Dowload only
2. Firware Upgrade
Third method format all didnt didnt work.
It shows some error.

A7000 and a7000plus are not the same.they got different architecture and kernel.a7000 got a 1.5ghz cpu whereas a7000plus got 1.5ghz,resembling to k3note.make sure you flash the proper firmware.choose firmware upgrade in spft.also i recomment flashing recovery only after first boot.if bootanimation appears it is likely to boot.

near broken phone after wipe

After I rooted my phone I decided to install a ROM in it. I Found MIUI 7 for the phone and with some instructions it told me to wipe the phone data, use custom recovery and install the .zip and it should be fine. but it went into a boot loop and never booted up. Then I went to download My-ROM v3.3 and still did not work. then I realised it needed the original EMUI to work.
So now I'm stuck here. its been 3 days and my phone still isn't working. my recovery is TWRP.

Need x620 stock rom. Lost IMEI,bas eband, NO SERVICE

The problem lies after a network change for data connection, subsequently did not recognize any of the simcard.
Its status is NO SERVICE, and dialing * # 06 # does not appear the "IMEI", checking in forums comments that a factory restoration should be done.
In the options of simcard in the phone indicates that "insert a simcard", is as if it recognized neither of the two simcard
I have tested with SM, Naute3g and IMEI.exe and none to served. I have the clipboard phone, can help me to solve this problem. The phone is amazing but has little support.
IMPORTANT: I made a serious mistake by not creating a backup with TWRP, and now I can not return to a previous version.
Please Help me......:crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:

If you already do it and nothing.
I was investigating and it tells me that it is a problem of the folder EFS, I look for it like root explorer but I do not get it, it means that I lost it?
What can I do in that case?

Reverse back to older stock rom version and install a OTA update through updater app.

I can inform you that already solve the problem, I leave the steps to follow for those who have that problem: (It is horrible to suffer this)
1) Download the ROM STOCK 013s (Installed by Fasboot)
2) Have the Recovery Original installed.
3) Go to recovery, Erase data
4) Flash ROM by Fasboot
5) Go from Fastboot to start ROM leaving the power button.
AND READY.......
You will have your NVRAM folder with no problems.
Remember to be careful when installing any recovery if you have smaller versions of ROM to 014s, Look for the tutorials of BB72 ROM.
Thanks for your help
