hi
just guessing as I'm no technician, but as you tried it with different roms I suspect you answered yourself: might be a hardware issue
if it also didn't work on stock rom it might be a good idea to contact SE service, hope you are still in warrranty period...

Ed. maybe it's worth trying wifimonster, haven't used it myself but it's got a good rep and seems to offer quite a few configuration options
cheers

Hello!
I've already try wifimonster and all the same like in communication manager, crash...
I have got warranty, or I dont know. I've got 1+1 year,and this is the second. I don't know what is the difference between them.

hi
shame wifi monster would have been easier...
I would expect the following: first year warranty provided by (responsibility of) reseller (provider), second year by producer
easy to confirm when contacting your reseller shop (if you got it there with a contract)

I installed the odin one click from the CAPTIVATE .... and now the phone only flashes AT&T LOGO the usb is not working any more, not charging not doing anything, and i can't get it by any means in download mode or other mode again. The only thing it will do is flash AT&T logo.... can i get it fixed. or i will have to put it for sale as parts ? thanks hope someone can give me a good advice and help me repair it ...

It can definitely be fixed, it's just a matter of how easily it can be done. Have you tried some of the unusual combinations people have come up with to get into download mode. For example removing the battery, holding power + volume down + home and then reinserting the battery whilst these buttons are held?
Also, if you can't get into download mode that doesn't mean you have to sell it as parts. Samsung will be able to repair it, if they can't tell what you did then perhaps they'll repair it for free under warranty.
Sometimes I just wonder why people try to install low-level software on their device that ISNT MEANT for their device. There is a reason, the captivate has a different model number and that is because it requires DIFFERENT software.
This comes close to me flashing the BIOS for an AMD motherboard on my X58 Intel motherboard.
reason for people installing other software is in my case because im STUPID !!! I stood almost 24 h reading forums in my country and stuff , and i googled ODIN the first link was this ODIN ONE CLIK i entered read about things there and it seamed to be for my phone, and from there we know the story. I did not think for one moment that the soft was for another phone. After i broke it i read all 42 pages and realized that.
I can't get the phone to do anything.... i can't charge it ... it's like the USB does not exist. If i start the phone unpluged, when i plug the usb in turns oFF , ass soon as i take out the USB it will start again to flash the AT&T logo...
I hope if i can't fix it, that SAMSUNG service will change it or can repair it and not charge a hunormus amount of money for that
you have give me hope telling that it can be fixed by samsung , and i still am opened for advices from u guys

thanks, im not going to be upset if people make fun, they can do it because i was so stupid not to see that the soft is for another phone and brake it with my own hand. Isn't on this forum someone that works for Samsung and can tell me for sure what to do , or if the service can do ?

Actually, you should try it... I've been told that flashing Intel boards with AMD firmwares allows unlimited overclocking! or not.

I'm sorry for that. It's a little bit of frustration speaking there. But I guess you have a way bigger problem. Although that post about putting the right file on the SD seems interesting (but I haven't heard of anything like that before).
But if you can, returning the phone and hoping that samsung will fix it will be the easiest fix.

im sure samsung can fix it evan by changing the sd in the phone with the correct soft will solve it, but i want to see if there is another way of doing it
Would love to know how many people have bricked their notes.Is it just an odd few or are there 100s.Has anyone had repairs ,unbricked or replaced by their carrier?
I too would like to know this.
Ok
Soft brick? I am sure there are tons, me included, a proper brick brick after which you use the phone for a coaster, don't think so many, though I have one of those too (shattered display).
Correct me if I'm wrong but I thought it was nearly impossible to brick an Android phone? When I was learning to flash and so on with my SGS, I certainly bollocked it up a lot of times (ah... misadventures with using incorrect files...). I have always been able one way or another been able to get back in and mend the damage.
With the Note, Download mode is hardwired in so I thought it would be difficult indeed to properly brick it. That said, I haven't done much with the SGN yet since it's my daily device and I leave it alone. (@torqu3e, I don't think shattered screens count towards the typical definition of 'bricked' do they? I thought it was a software f-up )
When someone says brick, I think of a phone that just won't turn on and is completely useless...but in many people's cases recently, the partition tables have been messed up and the phone is as good as useless. It no longer holds its function as an Android device. So yes, add me to the list of "bricked" Notes out there.
I got a hard brick! :-( It's in the shop..

Sharing wat you did to brick your phone might help others prevent it.This is not only to you but to all who's gonna report here....
I was talking more about bricking from flashing that dodgy ics ROM.Anyone unbricked or had it fixed under warranty.
Add me to the list. I bricked when I flashed a kernel that messed up the partition tables. Its at the service now.
one more to the list
i need to sent mine to the US
I faced a soft brick when i was flashing ics betas (mobile to pc screen) but fixed it by flashing stock rom then flashed back ics!

Same here, I think it will be more than 20. at least

In ODIN while trying to flash CF-Root ICS progress bar froze on Factoryfs flash and after 30 minutes I unplugged it. Phone at this point wont restart turn on or anything. Didn't respond to JIG to go into download mode so I took it to a service center in Southern California. They tried fixing it with JTAG and it didn't respond. It is Kernel related. I got some sort of good news today from the service center that they may have found a solution and are receiving a new tool to do the trick. I am crossing my fingers and waiting for the next phone call from them that if they could get my phone up and running again!!

the first time I put my phone sent to the sale, they say it takes one thousand yuan to repair, I certainly would not spend so much money to repair an old cell phone (the price I can diffuse a road without any problems Used Z3C), so you should know, I just want to know how other people are here to solve this thorny problem

If camera is not working then the problem can be:
- hardware error;
- wrong software (check if the file is right).
The service for sony is horrible. Their development team has little understanding of responsibility.
My sincere recommendation for those who seek peace of mind: buy cheaper phone like moto g and you will be happy.
Sony z-series are joke - the displayss break and become unglued, the motherboards die, etc.
However, when it works, then it is great.
I've picked up a tablet from ebay, its the 32BG/3GB version and I've been wracking mmy brain and trying tools. Does anyone know if there is a FRP firmware I can flash with Odin? Shield Alliance is no longer available on the Galaxy store, so if anyone knows an alt, I'll try that too.
I found a guide to make a custom AP file for odin, but I don't see the right files to make the combo file in my firmware files.

Did the eBay ad tell you it was FRP locked? If not I'd send it back. I've yet to hear of a way to bypass FRP lock in late model tablets. The only other option is to ask the seller to furnish legit "proof of purchase" so you can send it to Samsung tech support and have them unlock it.
BTW: The reason that you didn't find the files is that everytime someone finds a way to bypass FRP, Google finds a way to stop it. The whole purpose of FRP is to keep thieves from using the device. If there is a way to circumvent it, it becomes useless.

Yes I've done a lot of research in the last several days regarding this. The seller claimed they don't know if it even worked. After asking them questions they bought the tablet second hand as doesn't have the contact information of the original owner. I still got it quite cheap so its worth replacing the motherboard with a for parts tablet with a good one.
There actually was a well known method for getting around FRP for this model involving using talkback to access chrome and installing shield alliance from the galaxy store. Unfortunately the app has been removed. I've been looking into the combination file method since which seems to still work in theory I might simply need to do some research and find a different firmware dump or do some intuition with the file names. Personally I think it can be done, and even if not I'll just buy a parts unit.

Well good luck. All I know is that I've seen the question on bypassing FRP many, many times and I haven't seen anyone succeed in several years. Just look at the solution you read about. First of all, you don't get the screen it says you will when you factory reset. There is no way to turn on USB debugging. 2nd, all Google would need to do to prevent it from working is to change the file names.

I have yet to see anyone report back at having succeeded with one of these services. There are plenty of ads for the services but how does anyone know which, if any, are legit?
I had exactly the same problem with a Galaxy A32 and was able to find a solution for the FRP.
Its for the A32 but it might work for you as well.
Basically, it uses the samsung account from another phone to restore apps to the hacked one.
Either or, hope it works or gives an idea for a solution.

That must be some of the most stupid and annoying background music ever....

It definitely worked in the past....but years ago. From what I've read Android 9 was the last time any FRP worked.
Security is so much better now in new Android versions together with updated Google services checks that unless someone on the inside works at a carrier it's just not possible anymore
