[Q] bricked phone, ideas?

Bricked my phone today. When powered on it freezes on the splash screen. Will boot into download mode but will not connect to Odin (my first choice for reflashing a rom/kernel to fix it). Will boot into stock recovery but everything I've tried flashing fails signature verification.
Anyone have a link or can point me in the direction of something I should be able to install via the stock recovery?

Earlier leaked version would let u flash from stock recovery but on fc05 its a no go. U gonna have to odin the stock el29 or eg30. If ur pc don't recognize your phone other option mobile Odin its 4.99 in the market.
It would be lot easier if u mention what rom or recovery up running?

Are you sure you have the right drivers installed on ur PC? After that try diff USB ports or a new cable.

Yeah mobile odin is a no go bc it won't boot past the splash screen. A couple of the older stock leaks will flash from stock recovery though? I'll have to try that.
Tried wiping repeatedly, still stalls.
I've reinstalled the drivers a couple of times, literally tried 4 different cables & every USB. Phone is recognized by computer when it's stalled on the splash screen, just not in download mode.
thanks all for the input!

[Q] Bootloop

So I'm running an unlocked rogers galaxy note 2 I1737M. I was using clean rom 3.3 then today it just crashed everything. I tried to reboot to recovery and well it got stuck in a boot loop there. This was at work so now several hours later I am sitting here trying to reset set my phone. I have tried odin to restore to the stock files, hell I would be happy with just that. I used the imiage found in the refrence thread of the android develpment. any tips? links? help of any kind? Anything will be greatly apreceated.
worst part is I got it yesterday.
EDIT: I thought I should add that I am using odin v1.85 and that I am unable to get the phone to boot into anysort of recovery, ok I did once but can't get it to do it again. Not even stock.

Had the same issue.

Only fix I founfd that didn't wipe data was ro download CWM recovery on a pc and place with odin. Boot into download mode by holding volume down, home and power. Might take a few tries between boot loops.

I was using Stock LJ2 kernel CMW-flashable. After several hours of fighting with TWRP I was able to install CWM using odin and got my self out it looks like. The only thing with CWM is that data wipe seems to crash the recovery so I hope this dirty install of the rom I had saved on their works just fine.

[Q] Unable to boot to recovery, crashes [SOLVED]

I've bought global Galaxy Note 2 N7100 from Hong Kong with Kogan (online store)
Unlocked the device by using this method "How-to-root-galaxy-note-2-easiest-method" on google
[Odin v1.85 unknown CWM6 version]
After that, turning off the phone and holding down the Vol Up + Home Key + Power brings up the Galaxy Note N7100 screen, buzzes out and turns itself off.
I rewrote a new CWM recovery mode onto the device and tried it again, same problem.
[Odin v3.04 / ODIN-KashaMalagaTOUCHCWMRecovery-V6.0.2.7]
The next step I was going to take was to wipe the phone and install the stock Kernal, then using ODIN to unlock it again and trying to enter recovery mode again.
If this is the right step, I will do so.
If you could help me, it will be appreciated.
Android version : 4.1.1
Kernal version :
3.0.31-310959

Try TWRP instead of CWM. You can find it here:
http://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/n7100
You could try rebooting into recovery using ADB from your pc or a terminal emulator on the phone by typing: su reboot recovery

After installing the app Goo.im I installed the TWRP recovery with it and rebooted the device into recovery.
It showed the same buzzing screen and turned itself off.
There is no noticeable file courruption within the phone and everything is just as same when I start the phone normally again.
Could this be a faulty device? If so, can I actually get a refund / return for it?
I also cannot receive my 3G data from my sim when my Galaxy S2 was able to recieve it.
Does unlocking and changing roms affect the availablility of 3G data?

The 1st thing that I do is root with the "how to Root Note 2 [EASIEST METHOD]"at Youtube. like the topic and than after when the rooting process it will restart into recovery mode part at that part when I saw the note 2 word when restart the word were distorted and the note 2 word run everywhere and than become black screen for about 2-3 minit and than the phone restart on back like normal and my phone were rooted and got super user on it and I tested with titanium backup and can be used. After that I try to install cwm recovery and flash the CWM recovery like the app told me to, after that i try to backup my stock rom and than after restart to recovery mode the note 2 word show like when the rooting process the word distorted. After that i try goo manager to flash twrp and try go recovery mode and still same. I did not try to flash back the stock rom. can you guide me what should I do next about the cf root and flash twrp with Odin, i dint try it because Im noob at rooting note 2.
btw thx for reply i hope you can guide me what should i do next.

You can go to twrp site and download twrp for note 2 in tar format so you can flash it with odin just the same way as you flashed cf-root.
Do not use goo manager. For some reason it says that it flashed twrp but it does not flash it.
So in a few words.
DL twrp 2.3.3.2 in tar format.
Open odin and select pda and then select twrp.
Switch off your phone and boot in download mode by pressing volume down+home button+ power botton. When you see samsung logo realease power button. Keep the other two.
Press vol up to confirm
Connect your phone to pc and wait till it recognizes it.
Press start. Wait till finish.
It should be working after this.

I don't know understand what you just said but my phone wouldn't boot properly into cyanogenmod, the screen would flicker around and go all weird then go blank. I then restored to me backup and later made a new backup and tried flashing Cyanogenmod again but the same thing happened. So again I restored to my back up but this time my backup didn't work and is doing the same thing as it did with cyanogen mod - screen flickers and flashes and goes all weird then goes blank

I would say boot into recovery and do a "Factory Reset" or "Wipe Data", but you can't get into it. Reinstall TWRP and wipe data/system/dalvik/cache, then reboot to "Download"/"ODIN" mode and try to flash back to stock with ODIN. Also, redownload the tar.md5 file, just to make sure that isn't the issue.

Thank you very much.

[Q] Stock recovery flash through odin not working

Hello all,
previous searches have yielded limited answers so I apologize if this has been answered already.
I've been running CM for the past 5 or 6 months and have had zero problems with it. Last week however something happened and I got stuck in a boot loop. Me being a genius obviously didn't make a backup of anything so I flashed the stock rom via odin back onto the phone. After flash through odin I get the green light and pass indication. I go to restart the phone in recovery and I get the sick droid with the red yield sign above him. I then go to wipe/factory reset then reboot and it goes as far as the Samsung logo doing its animation and then stops just after and freezes. A regular power up without going into recovery first results in a boot loop.
I tried the recovery process through Kies and get the "This devices version cannot be updated" error. I am running the current version of Kies. I'm assuming its because it knows I've been rooted?
Note 2 Sprint
thank you in advance.

ne2

I dont think kies has NE2 yet so you can only use odin. Boot into recovery (stock is fine) and do a factory reset. Then power off (do not reboot) and go into download mode and flash ne2 tar again through odin. Then hopefully you will be able to boot. Note that 4.4.2 is a large rom and will take around 5 mins to actually boot up.

Thank you for the response,
When I go to wipe/reset I get the dead android with the red triangle. I am assuming there is a fault in my stock recovery. I still went ahead and wiped/reset data and removed battery after, waited a few minutes, inserted battery, booted into download mode, flashed stock ne2, everything with odin passed. I booted phone up and it immediately went into a boot loop with the samsung logo for about 5 minutes then shut off completely. the battery has a full charge.
I'm open for other options if some are available.Would it be possible to skip the stock recovery and go straight into a custom recovery? I'm planning on rooting and installing CM again but obviously making a backup this time.

Like he said use odin to flash philz 6.07.9 but uncheck reboot option. Once everything is done disconnect and pull battery (this is safe as long as everything finished flashing). Then do recovery key sequence while inserting battery. Then flash your rom. If still having issues with booting I have a special file that you can odin that should fix it.

I downloaded the 6.07.09 philz zip file, however I'm having trouble finding the tar.md5 file to flash through odin.
Also, once philz touch recovery is installed can I immediately flash a recent version of CM11 nightly straight from my external SD card?

Am I rooted automatically if I have Philz recovery? They only thing I can think of is I don't have an OS at all on my device or I am not rooted?

Yeah kind of thought that might happen. Flash the attachment from this (fix.tar) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=53035491&postcount=287 through odin and it should fix your issue. Also you are not rooted automatically because of Philz. Root is controlled by the rom but almost every custom rom (omni excluded) comes rooted so hope that helps that question.

I'm assuming the fix.tar changes the recovery to CWM? I flashed the fix zip successfully, rebooted, CM logo came on for a couple minutes, I did a happy dance, then the phone shut off again. Pulled battery, turned back on and its stuck in a boot loop now with samsung logo.

When I flashed the fix.tar. it changed the recovery to CWM which only gives me the option to wipe data/factory reset, whereas with the philz I had the option to wipe for just a new rom. or a complete reset

Good then you can mix them up. Do the factory reset. Also you sure it is cwm or is it the stock recovery? I have not used that file since 4.4.2 came out but thought it was all stock.

Yes, after the fix.tar flash the recovery changed to CWM. However, I'm still having no luck. I tried system wipe/restore then reboot but the phone boots to samsung logo then shuts off. Ill go over the steps I've taken again.
1. Flashed stock recovery through odin - got red triangle above dead android. I'm assuming problem with stock recovery
2. Flashed Philz recovery through odin - did factory reset, flashed current version of CM11, boot, samsung logo comes on then phone shuts off.
3. Flashed fix.tar. through odin.- boot, CM logo comes on like its booting for a minute, then phone shuts off, pull battery, restart phone then goes into a boot loop. wipe data does the same thing. After a couple times of that I'm now at a point where when I reboot from recovery it goes straight to samsung logo then shuts off. Holding the power button (like a regular startup) does nothing. The phone is only responsive to recovery mode and download mode. Not to mention the phone has to be plugged in to either the computer or the wall for any of this to work. Even though the battery indicator says the charge is at 100%.

So you can not run on battery power at all? Sounding like a hardware issue. If you know someone else with a note 2 I would try swapping batteries. After that I am not sure what to try.

A different battery didn't help. I reflashed the stock rom, where I get the original problem of the red exclamation point laying down android screen. Is there a way to rid the download screen of the system status as being displayed as "custom" and the knox warranty void: as 1 with the condition the phone is in? I believe if I can reset the counter and prove it is a hardware problem they will cover it under warranty. If not I believe my only option is to destroy/crush the phone beyond repair and claim the insurance which is $200 to replace the phone.

Can you post the link where you got the stock rom?
