Hello,
I have a GT-N7000 which I am only able to access via download mode. Recovery mode does not work at all.
Odin 3.09 runs the following successfully:
1. Flashing a stock rom: N7000JPLSB_N7000OJPLSB_N7000XXLSO_HOME.tar.md5
2. Flashing a pit file: Q1_20110914_16GB.pit
3. Flashing a safe kernel: PhilZ-cwm6-JPLSB-UAE-4.89.4.tar.md5
These steps however have not solved the problem.
I have read that I need to flash a bootloader, but I don't know how to do that.
Any help would be highly appreciated.

On a successful kernel flash, enter into recovery mode and flash raw kernel and its corresponding rom.
Unfortunately recovery does not work at all. The phone reboots when I attempt to enter recovery.

My phone has this thing where upon pressing the buttons for recovery, it will show the Samsung Galaxy Note screen twice before entering recovery. That means pressing the buttons until it finishes showing twice, or it will just reboots normally. Did you try it?
What I tried now was flashing the stock rom again. After Odin successfully flashed the rom, it went into a boot loop that lasted approximately 20 minutes, but I just let it loop without disturbing it. Eventually it stopped and switched itself off.
I tried to enter recovery and and it rebooted a few times as you mentioned, but eventually I now see the stock Recovery screen, but the Android is on his back with the red triangle on his chest.
I then performed a factory reset.
Phone reboots, I see the Samsung logo, I hear the jingle and then the phone switches off.
Edit:
Switch phone on: See message Android is upgrading. Reaches 33 of 73 apps and phone switches off.
Switch on again: Android is upgrading 1 of 41. Completes. Switches off.
Switch on again: See setup screen. Switches off.
Switch on again: Same thing.
Recovery still broken and can't setup phone as it switches itself off.

You need the stock recovery. Flash your rom in, reboot to stock recovery, then update with the corresponding Philz for your phone. If it works you should reboot and see philz recovery and your rom is unusable. Just flash raw kernel and any other rom after that
So all the random reboots were caused by a faulty battery.
I bought a new battery, followed steps 1,2 and 3 in my original post and my phone is working perfectly again.
Here's the deal, I have a sprout8 device (the Indonesian Nexian Journey One) running stock 6.0 with some xposed mods installed on it. Suddenly the device shuts down and when I try to boot it up it only goes halfway through the bootanimation when it shuts down again. I wasn't too worried as I thought it was just a conflicting system issue and I also thought it was time to re-flash fresh stock 6.0 to freshen up my phone anyway. So I went ahead and did it.
Here's where the problems start to show up, I had a hard time booting to recovery through the power + volume up combination. The phone suddenly shuts down on its own as it boots up. I tried it a few times and finally got to recovery. After that, as I flashed stock 6.0 the phone shut down again. I thought it was an issue with my recovery so I tried wiping everything through fastboot and re-flashed recovery through fastboot aswell. From there I tried again to flash stock 6.0 through recovery and again, the phone shut down. I tried a different ROM thinking it was a ROM issue but still got the same results.
After hours of trying to flash a ROM through recovery (retrying over and over as it suddenly shut down while flashing), I finally got a ROM installed. Then I rebooted my phone, but again it freezes halfway through the bootanimation (literally freezing the bootanimation) and refused to do anything. I took off the battery and booted up the phone countless tries trying to get it to boot up. When it finally booted up, I filled in all the Google startup credentials and finally got started on a fresh stock 6.0. However, I tried to restore my previous application data through Android's application recovery on startup but everytime the device installs a new application it would freeze up and shut down. This happened countless times. Then the phone, once again, shut down and could not start the ROM. It would freeze up on the bootanimation.
Then things started to get weird, when the phone turns on it should show the "Nexian" logo in all its glory before going to bootanimation. But here the screen gets all distorted and shows these weird horizontal (and sometimes vertical) lines. Nothing's wrong with my phone screen so I assume it is a system error. From here on, the phone refused to boot. It just shows the Nexian logo and restarts over and over. The same thing happens even after I re-flashed both my recovery and ROM. I even tried using SP Flash Tool to re-flash stock but still the same results.
Now, the device wouldn't even turn on. But when I connect it using USB to a Windows computer, it still gets detected through device manager as an ordinary MediaTek device.
I'm assuming now that it may be a problem with the /system parition where we install our ROMs in. The partition may be (partially) corrupt. Seeing as the device could still boot the ROM a few hours ago but freezing upon updates to the stated partition.
If you guys have any other ideas/solutions I'm all ears.
Hello everyone,
I had installed CM12.1 around a month back and everything was running smoothly until today. My phone suddenly got rebooted automatically and since than it is stuck in boot loop. Once CM Logo appears it again reboots. When I remove the battery and insert it after couple of minutes it automatically gets on without pressing power on button. It is not switching Off. Because of this I can't even go to custom recovery to flash stock rom. I kept Android Debugging off as it was giving BSOD to my PC. So please help me to recover my phone.
Thank You.

Hello, today I upgraded from LineageOS 19.1 to 20. I have flashed lineage-20.0-20230121-nightly-beryllium-signed.zip then MindTheGapps-13.0.0-arm64-20221025_100653.zip but that gave me error "adb failed to read command: no error", then I flashed magisk. After booting to android everything worked except google apps but thats ok. I opened Magisk and selected to install Magisk. After restarting my device started to bootloop. I have uninstalled magisk via recovery but still the same problem. I have tried to flash rom again and also firmware but it still only shows black screen. Is it possible to somehow fix this or at least recover the files? When I am on black screen and hold power button it shows emergency, power off and restart buttons.
What device are you using?
