[Q] Boot corrupted, can only access Download mode

Hello everyone!
Today, while I was using my phone (GT-N7105) just as usual, it crashed and rebooted. "Okay", I thought, "a little annoying but it happens."
Well, I was wrong. After being stuck on the Boot Logo ("Samsung Galaxy Note 2") I held down the power button to force another restart. What I saw next really shocked me:
Again, the Samsung Logo appeared on screen, but this time with lots of white stripes all around the screen (like something was corrupted).
The next restart made it only worse.
I can't boot or access recovery mode, the only thing I can access is the Download mode.
But even this isn't working correctly, it says:
"Product Name: [This is actually blank]"
I tried flashing Stock Samsung rom with ODIN, but to no avail. I also tried it with a PIT file, but again, no luck.
I either get:

Before the crash, I was happily using the latest SlimKat rom ( 4.4.2 (build 5) ).
I also tried using the Android Toolkit, but of course it doesn't find my device.
I hope that there is still something I can do... Thanks for your help!

I'm not quite sure but it looks like your internal memory died. Or it got corrupted.

PLEASE HELP US
THE SAME PROBLEM LIKE THERE
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2774775
It's the sudden death syndrome, probably we need a JTAG for our Phones or .... changing the EMMC card.... or Changing the motherboard if failing
Experts must find the cause of this problem because lot of people suffered of this problem recently (virus ? )

Okay, this definitely is the SDS, this seems really, really discomforting :/

You can only do a hardware replacement to get your phone working. SDS can shut down the device permanentaly.

The only thing you can do is give it to repair. When you bought your phone?
The early note 2 had the SDS syndrome.
Well samsung updated to 4.2.1 supposedly to fix/prevent SDS. Also it could be something else you never know because you must open your phone and have a special tools to perform tests.
Best option service center diagnosis, i think it should be for free. Later you decide if you can afford repair.

Phew, I was just at the shop I bought it from, I'll get a new one, no fees or anything.
Lucky me!
A friend of mine had the same thing happen to him today (Galaxy Note 2 as well), he bought a new phone.

Please, can you ask them what is the problem and the solution
because I dont have warranty for my phone

Today, I got my new Note 2. They gave me an completely new one, and the guy handing it to me said that there was no use repairing the old one. I asked for details, but he didn't know more than that.
Sorry to let you down!

[Q] No Service and no sim.. GT-N7100

Hello and thank you for clicking into my topic.
i just bought a used Samsung Galaxy note II online and when i got it and put in my sim, i noticed that there was no service.
i can go WIFI and use apps and stuff but i cannot call or update firmware.
so i tried to reformat it using the system recovery boot.
and still no changes... i did some research in the phone and noticed i have no IMEI and there is absolutely no service in the phone.
tried to take of the battery to see the imei on the phone but the previous owner has taken the sticker off.
i've tried to contact the previous owner but he has deleted his account on the site i bought it from.
is there something i can do.. if i wanted a multimedia pad i would've bought a ipad
please i hope there is some kind and wise soul out there that has a solution on fixing my new phone.
thank you very much!
i have some screenshots but i apperently need to post 10 posts before i can attach them.
pm me i will send them to you.

Which country are you in?You can try flashing official 4.4.2 stock firmware of your region,if it's not available for your country then I recommend NE1 France base from here extract the zip file you'll get a tar.md5 file put your phone into download mode (volume down+home+power) connect it to pc odin v 3.09.Wait for ID port to turn blue with ID COM id shown once successful usb connection established between phone and odin ,check the ap/pda tab in odin and select the above tar.md5 stock rom file you downloaded.Make sure only auto reboot and reset time are checked in ODIN and nothing else.Hit start and sit back and let odin do it's thing.

PIT file for Note 3 Neo N7505 for non-HK roms

I've tried different ROMs from samfirmware, but the only one I could successfully install via Odin are the Hong Kong N7505ZH versions. Based on the Odin error message it seems this is because of invalid partition sizes. I wanted to re-partition the device, but couldn't find any PIT files for the N7505XX versions. I've seen that it is called HLLTE_EUR_OPEN_4G.pit or HLLTE_EUR_OPEN_4G_hidden30M.pit but didn't find a download link for them anywhere.
Does anyone have these handy, or could someone extract the PIT from their device?
EDIT: it looks like they can now be downloaded from various places on the internet. I have uploaded them here for anyone in need. Tested both, and they don't void your KNOX warranty so the signature in them seems perfectly legit. The zip file contains both HLLTE_EUR_OPEN_4G.pit (for Hong Kong roms) and HLLTE_EUR_OPEN_4G_hidden30M.pit (for European roms). It looks like you'll need the latter one for most of the 4.4.x and the new 5.1.1 ROMs found on samfirmware

I extracted my own pit using heimdall, and compared it to yours. It seems they are exactly the same... Did you manage to update your FW to any official non-HK roms or 4.4.2?

Meanwhile I could update to 4.4.2. hidden.img was of course broken, but creating a new .tar file which only contained recovery.img was enough to remove the firmware upgrade failed flag (and it also passed the new 4.4.2 secure bootloader checks), so I could boot into the new OS and I didn't see any visible errors after the update.
Having a proper install without failures would be better though...

My inexperience have make me think that I´could use this ROM with your Pit file and select the Flags: Auto Reboot, Re-Partition, F Reset Time. But at the end of the procedure the Screen have begin flashing with color points :silly:
After 5 mitutes Ihave reset the mobile but it goes right to Download Mode.
There is down the Odim conf window.
Any idea to solve this problem? Now I´m really Frighten, and almost I did not do a backup before.
Thanks in advance.

i'm from india is that file support for my Samsung Note 3 Neo I want to flash Official Firmware !

Just re-partitioned my phone with HLLTE_EUR_OPEN_4G_hidden30M.pit, and so far it works perfectly. I could finally install the latest roms error free from Odin. KNOX warranty status is still okay, so no issues with the signature of the file. File links in first post if anyone needs it.

Note, that the HLLTE_EUR_OPEN_4G_hidden30M.pit file works just fine for the new 5.1.1 Lollipop ROMs as well

Can someome explain what is this Pit file do?

Important Announcement
You probably have heard that Samsung has issued a worldwide safety recall on the Note 7 because of the numerous incidents that have occurred. It is strongly advised that you return your device following the instructions below (Samsung US link, for other countries look at your region's webpage).
Note 7 Safety Recall
Of course, you can choose to keep your device for whatever reason but I strongly advise against this. You could be putting yourself at risk and it is highly unlikely development will continue on this device (developers shouldn't have to develop on an unsafe device). Samsung have released firmware updates that will restrict you from charging your device over 60 percent.
Myself and XDA will not be held responsible for any damaged devices or injuries caused by this defective product.

Sometimes when I'm using an app say a game or something and get a notification like from CNN or Facebook the notification box will only pop up halfway for like a split second then the whole things loads into the full box if that makes sense.. Why?

I am coming from a Nexus 6P and have not figured out a solution to an issue.
I have an app that needs the options button to change settings. I cannot find a way to modify button behavior to create the same action. Anyone?

Have you tried removing administrative permissions from the app? It should be in the security settings.

Of course I have removed all permissions all notification abilities I have restarted on safe mode numerous times I have pretty much tried everything known to man the problem is when I try to deactivate it it shuts down settings and won't let me do anything I have read of possible fixes on earlier versions but I have marshmallow and no one has any real good idea of how to deactivate a device Administration position on note7

my note 7 tmo is updated to 60% battery, the issue that i have is that the phone no longer detect my otg adaptor please help

I purchased a 930FD off ebay, and when i received it everything worked fine. I sent it in to attempt to get a replacement and the must have updated the software but when i got it back it wouldn't charge over 60%, i couldn't access my secure folder due to unauthorized software (or something like that), and when i sideloaded Samsung pay it wouldn't authorize for the same reason. I did have the issue with my secure folder previous to me sideloading Samsung pay, so that wasn't the cause. I read that re-initializing my device should fix the issue with the secure folder. I used smart switch to re-initialize my phone using the original serial number, when i started it back up (no sim card) it defaulted to Arabic (phone was slated for UAE i believe) so i changed that in initial setup to English (US) and proceeded down the settings. when i finally got access to the rest of the device my secure folder was still blocking me out and Samsung pay was in Arabic. So im looking for some help on how to fix my secure folder issue and get Samsung pay (and i assume a few other samsung apps) in English.
Thanks for the help. I also apologize if this is a simple question i tried to search first but the lingo around here is above my head)

I want to download some new edge panel apps. I have disabled updates and have package disabler installed. When I try it asks to update Samsung billing. Will this mess things up? Any help would be appreciated.

I used to have the note 7 but returned it and now have a Pixel xl. The note had this great feature to not be disturbed while playing games. Was that a specific app unique to the phone or did I just not transfer it over ? Please help sick of text and other notifications during gaming

Why are you trying to root when its well known that root has not worked in several months?
I do not understand some of you guys at all your just making life difficult for yourselves

I'm stuck, folks. And desperately need your help.
Long story short - I can't seem to flash back any stock ROM to recover from the FRP Lock after flashing the Hydra ROM with TWRP successfully once and rebooting it after a while. While repeating the procedure the BL and CP are installing fine per Hydra instructions. I'm even disabling the reboot and doing it manually to get back straight into the DL mode, but when starting TWRP AP the flashing fails with:
...
<ID:0/007> recovery.img
<ID:0/007> RQT_CLOSE !!
<ID:0/007>
<ID:0/007> Complete(Write) operation failed.
in Odin, and Custom Binary (RECOVERY) Blocked by FRP Lock on the phone.
On the DL screen:
- Product Name SM-N930F (tried several stock ROMS for it as well, but my original N7 is SM-N930X - Live Demo unit)
- Current Binary: Samsung Official
- System Status: Custom
- RP SWREV B:2 K:1 S:1 (I guess this is what the ROM is compared against).
Tried N930F stock: Either SYSTEM REV. CHECK FAIL. DEVICE:2, BINARY:1 or KERNEL REV. CHECK FAIL. DEVICE:1, BINARY:0
My understanding is that the Hydra ROM has installed its own newer kernel, which is failing to check against the original one.
Perhaps, there is a way to inject a custom kernel into original ROM?
Tried the G930F stock ROM : Custom binary (BOOT) Blocked by FRP lock
The Recovery Mode doesn't work (Tried the most recent SmartSwitch it just closing the recovery window as soon as I enter my real model and S/N)

Trying to get back to stock - T320

I have been trying to go back to stock on this device, but that's not happening.

On the tablet itself, it says Odin: Invalid ext4 image. What can I do?

Redownload stock ROM.
Using single or multiple file ROM?
I recommend the latter.
To be downloaded with samfirm_reborn if not found elsewhere.

I have tried several stock from different sources, and it always fail at the same place. I did try the multiple files once and that failed too.

@Aloupha imo Odin 3.14 is to new for this old stock ROM.
Try 3.09 or even older ones.
Somewhere I've read recommendations regarding Odin versions to stock ROM versions.

Oh I will give that a shot and see. I will google for an old version.

I went as low as Odin 3.04... it keeps failing at the same place: Odin: Invalid ext4 image
Do you have a link for samfirm_reborn?

@Aloupha using ecosia search gave me this:
GitHub - ivanmeler/SamFirm_Reborn
Contribute to ivanmeler/SamFirm_Reborn development by creating an account on GitHub.
github.com

And don't forget to check binary or factory mode to get multiple part ROM.

Oh - I did find that link but didn't know I had the right one. I don't know how to use that site.

@Aloupha on the right hand side you see "Releases" below "About".
There is the link to the download site where you find the .zip to be used.
No need to install. Just unpack it and start as admin.
This is the direct link

Ah that makes sense. Not knowing how it work, I was looking to download the firmware directly from the website. That's why I was confused. Thanks for the tip.
Alright, I downloaded the latest firmware from there and tried. I am still getting the same error.
Is there a stock ROM I could flash via TWRP?

That will never work as stock ROM includes stock recovery and comes in a different file format.

Perhaps ADB might work but I never tried.
Which Odin right now?
CU in a few hours.

I have tried Odin 3.04, 06, 07, 09, and 3.14.4, and none worked. I read somewhere that for this to work, I must have the original cable. Since I don't have the original cable, I don't know what to do.
I would give ADB a shot, but I have no clue how to do that.

Cable doesn't have to be original but of good quality.
Neither do I. I just once checked if tab is recognised and that worked.
Btw does it still work to flash custom ROM?

I flashed Custom via TWRP if that's what you mean... yes.
