N7100 boot-loader stuck problem - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi all
that's my first POST
I have galaxy note 2 GT-N7100 , the mobile does not boot normally
it just stuck in boot-loader screen ,I tried to put it in Recovery mod , but it does not response.
so I but it in download mod and the phone entered it
I use Odin 3.07 , Odin 3.06 , Odin 1.87
and several Roms with wipe and No-Wipe data but Nothing happened.
Actually I faced that problem with GT-I9100 and GT-I5830I ,, but with these two mobiles they take full firmware but nothing changed.

It's really bad sign, May be a SDS but before saying it need some information.
Can you input detail how it was happen?
does it was spontaneously restarted before this happened?
what exactly you can read in download mode? Right upper corner

thanks dr.ketan for your support >>
that happened during a call , and it does not reboot randomly before.
I have riff Box ,,, but i don't think that it will help.
thanks again dr.ketan

Yes i mean to say it was happened without flashing or wiping
Anyway i have asked another thing status of download mode
Can you tell me that

Friend sorry to tell you but I find nothing but only SDS
If you have warranty then don't do anything and send to service station.
You must be on older rom,B'coz latest rom have fixed this.
And don't do anything which raise counter otherwise it will void warranty.
Good luck

yes the red led
thanx alot for all.....
what about the others GT-I9100 , GT-S5830I ???
same as note 2 ????

No idea about 5830 but
I9100 and N7000 don't have sds but it having brick bug and that triggers if you wipe device while having stock kernel (this happens with ics only not on gingerbread)
S3 also have same sds like note2

Try flashing pit file.
And since your phone has counter raised it could be a problem...

Why you should flash rooting file, It doesn't do anything to recover device in any way, now you have raised counter and that voids warranty
As I think it is nothing but just SDS, and you have to send to service station
Question is how you can prevent device to enter in download mode to reclaim warranty.

how to check warranty
is ther any other wa using a software or something to make it work
See you most probably need to replace motherboard, i mean to say you have purchased with bill and still you have warranty?
If you have warranty then again big question is your flash counter is raised so they will reject your warranty claim
If you don't have warranty and then just send to service station, you need to pay for that.

I don't think that will work, but still gave it, bcoz you don't mess up with wrong one, try only if your device is 16gb N7100
You have to extract it and flash with pit tab of odin

Go to Sammobile.com and download latest rom and install using Odin on pc
scribbled from "the phab" (the note 2 -N7100)
Nonsense
The reason your red light is on due to having quick glance feature is enabled so sensor constantly monitoring when the device is in standby.
Yes it is similar but sds and red light remaining on is a differwnt matter.
On the other hand
Please dont wait for your ota update.
Get odin for pc and download latest stock rom (yes any country will be fine) and flash it. Make sure you have at least % 70 battery during flashing.
Once your countrys ota available 4.1.2 or beyond flash that one but really makes mo different. I am using Turkish latest rom on my UK device
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
Yes. It is happening to me. Sometime it reboot itself while I am browsing or viewing picture gallery.
Sometimes I cannot answer incoming phone calls when it rings. Touchscreen and all buttons do not work
while the phone rings. I just have to wait until the call becomes unanswered call.
I am on 4.1.2 DMB2 XME. I wonder if I change to other region ROM could help?
I hope it is not SDS even though I have the vulnerable eMMC chip.
I mean if the phone is still working and giving signs of failure then it can't be SDS. It would have to be sudden hence it's called Sudden Death Syndrome. Just follow the advice given above and flash install the latest ROM and you should be fine.

You are on a later rom. Did you flash your currwnt rom via odin ? Did you wipe ? If you did not backup your data (samsung account backs up your stuff but not always enough) and reboot in to recovery and wipe reset inc cache.
You ll be fine.

Your note 2 was on 4.1.1 or 4.1.2 ? Looks like its SDS ( Sudden Death Syndrome )

4.1.1 SDS means it cant be fixed? a download mode and flashing a rom wont work ?
Try that
If it is SDS, it won't work
Don't flash any custom stuff, which will raise flash counter and your warranty will void.
Download stock ROM from this thread and flash with odin
If it fail, just input odin log here

but how can it be SDS and its still i never downloaded any app or anything not even connected to wi fi and i just reset it and after i removed the battery it didn't start ! dont u think the software files are missing or something ? and a re flashing a rom would work ?
Thats makes it favour of SDS, if you have did something then it happens we have reason to believe. but when this happens spontaneously it favours SDS another bad sign is blinking red light while charging
Now try flashing firmware, if it fails at pit, then it confirms it is nothing but SDS only.
Make sure your phone isn't run out of battery

While Sds is likely, a faulty battery can be the cause too.

Put your phone in to rwcovery mode
Volume up home and power button
If you can and wipe/reset and wipe cache
I believe if its not sds this should work and I hope you can get it in to recovery mode
And first time it boots yes it stays at samsung logo for a little long time

Not 100% sure about it, but with SDS your device it is completelly dead. I guess only a motherboard replacement will fix it.
True that

While your phone is it off, hold Volume Up, home button and power button pressed. Release the buttons as soon as you see the note 2 boot up logo.

Unforyunately NO ! It can not be fixed. Only fix is mainboard change . If you can return it to service for repair and there is no signs of root on phone they will replace mainboard!

Well I wouldn't worry about being rooted or not at this point. While the SDS means a deceased motherboard, it will theoretically be impossible to check that, hence the replacement of the motherboard in case of SDS
That unless the data is else where stored, and samsung has to replace the mobo, assamble the phone and afterwards check for the root. which I bet they won't do
So if you have root you cannot do a factory reset from the options menu it will destroy your phone in some casses or all

I had my phone rooted and did countless of factory resets...never had any problem, but as you can see, with the SDS walking around anything is possible.
This is getting a bit silly.

Hi,
I have Note 2. I was attempting to factory reset it (thru the Settings menu). Halfway in the resetting process, it just flashes the blue light and it got stuck there. Took out the battery and now, here I am not being able to switch it on nor enter thru the recovery mode (power+volume up+home key). is there anything that I can do now??
Thanks.

[Q] Note 2 is not responding

My note 2 GT-N7100 is not working at all. I have tried many methods trying to boot my note 2. Before the problem even started I tried to root my phone. I assume something went wrong during the process of rooting.
I tried to flash a stock rom many times via odin and also the rescue firmware didnt solve the problem from this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=32273406&postcount=5
I can only go to download mode I can't go to the recovery at all every time I try to do it my phone keep restarting and stuck on the firmware upgrade encountered an issue " the yellow tringle".
Kies didn't work.
What can I do? Please help me :crying:

So pit file doesn't work normal and recovery firmware doesn't work and you are stuck on update failed screen.
Except the last one I can only conclude it's an sds issue. But it's stuck on update failed.
Try a usb jig. If it resets counter then return it to service center.

Hard Bricked without doing anything !

Hi ! I`m nearly going nuts right now.. I was using my Note 2 plugged in the Usb in my Notebook and suddenly, the screen froze with a twisted image. After that, when I rebooted, it just kept the same twisted image. I won't get into the Recovery mode, only Download Mode. In the Download mode, I already tried to put a Stock Rom, but with no success.It says that there isn't a PIT partition.
Anyone please can help me ? I think there's no warranty as I bought in United States but I live in brazil. Thanks
Ok you can flash it with the pit file in odin, or you UV can try to flash any kernel only and try to boot into recovery mode

Hi ! Thanks for the reply ! I already tried some PITS in Odin that I found here in XDA but they all result in error. I will try the Kernel thing. What's UV ? What kernel can I use ? I have to flash the Kernel in Odin ? Thanks !
