Is there a way to recover the note 4 from a hard brick
and I'm not talking about a soft brick like reboots constantly, the phone won't boot up properly, reboots only to recovery/download mode, ect...
I'm talking about the hard brick that leaves your phone completely useless
phone wont boot up AT ALL, charging/changing the battery won't work, and when you connect the phones to the computer, it says "QHUSB_BULK" or “Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008”
It wont recognize the phone AT ALL
Is there a fix to bring the phone to at least download mode or recovery mode?
I'm asking because i have done an endless research on "how to recover from a hard bricked android phones"
sadly, i only found the solution for fastboot devices
Is there a method to recover it?
Maybe. Checkout this post.

I already been through those websites
Those websites are best for fastboot devices
I looked up unbrick images after i saw the galaxy s3 have an unbrick image
So i called my friend who has a hard bricked AT&T s3
So we use that method, and surprisingly it worked
So i went on a rampage and looked up unbrick images for note 4
I couldn't find unbrick images for the N910A variant
Is there a way to make an unbrick image for the AT&T note 4?

Not sure why the steps on droidsavvy.com would work better for a fastboot device vs a Samsung device. As for an unbrick image for AT&T's Note 4 I don't think so as I think it would require root to do.

Did you try ODIN back to this firmware? If you did and problem still exist that mean just one thing that internal storage is corrupted. You can try find PIT file for ATT note 4 and try odin back again DOI2 firware with pit file.

I honestly don't know, but if I had to take a guess it would be akin to a disk copy (via the dd command or something that works the same) of a (preferably) stock phone, but like I said I'm no expert and was just passing on information I thought might be useful to the op.

For Qualcomm 9008, you need to repair the bootloader to enter download mode again, then you are good

Try and flash the firmware for your region from PC ODIN.
The fact that it's bootloopong and you can still enter recovery means your ok. Just go flash original firmware via Odin.

The phone does not power on. If I remove the battery while it's plugged in the charge light comes on for about 40 seconds but that's the only sign of life at the moment. That is why I need a 4.3 debrick image so I can try and make it boot from the external SD card.
Can you get inyo download mode? Volume down+power+home. If so see if odin will see the phone. If odin see's it you should be able to flash the stock .Tar file.

Yeah you need someone to dump it for you. You can extract it from the tar.
But people have stated that they could not get their devices to boot even after using the debrick method, when they bricked by trying to downgrade.

Our problem is identical dave74x. I have been trying to find this image too. But no luck. I'm hoping someone that upgraded like us hasn't been savvy enough to not try flashing anything crazy. All we can do is wait. Good luck dave74x
Edit: If CNexus can find someone that successfully rooted the stock 4.3 OTA and have them make a dump for us/each of us (depending on memory size in your phone).
Anyone?? I can't believe no one has a 4.3 debrick image or is willing to dump one. IMPORTANT... If you updated to 4.3 and you tried to flash back and bricked then you will need a 4.3 debrick image, nothing else will work!! If I can't find one in a day or so I'm just going to send it to my friend in Texas for a JTAG....

The problem is that everyone waited because of KNOX and has CNexus's un-KNOX'ed ROM without the 4.3 bootloader. Then the people that did update to the OTA haven't been able to root or get SuperSU/Super User to work at all. I'm going to try other forum sites and i suggest you do the same dave74x.
This thread can be closed. I just bought a used motherboard for it and all is back to normal now.. Thanks!!

You can re-root easily on 4.3 with Philz recovery. if that the problem. when you root it from there please be nice and pull the boot image. i have the SAME exact problem as dave trying to downgrade

I would love that debrick img as well! Flashed a bad kernel (I was in a hurry) and bricked a friend's phone. got the sd card class 10 and ready to give this a try! I've tried the other debrick.img's, but none have worked (all were earlier in the year, likely not 4.3). Can someone please drop us a line?!

I am not Android expert, but have followed many guides here. Try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2345860 forum where gTan64 has done this work on other files and he has the code posted to do that in the first post. Make sure you click "Show" button.
gTan64 has attempted to extract first 70 mb or so only. I have read that due to knox, 4.3 does not work. Just for kicks, if you can extract the file might as well try out different sizes and try. If you can extract the image, and it works, please post it here. Many others would be interested in that too.
Hi,
My phone is samsung galaxy note 2 N7100
I bricked my phone when rooting with odin. And now I can only enter the download model, any other is not available. I am not really sure how bad this situation is and I would like to try this method firs (thttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2154890). However, I cannot download the recovery package/rom required by that method, link provided has gone.
So if anyone know where I can find this recovery package/rom (a zip including different file like PIT, CSC, MODEM, BOOTLOADER, CODE... ) for my N7100?
Or is there other ways to get my phone back?
I am really desperate now and any thoughts will be appreciated!
Thanks

Did you flash 4.1.2 ? or greater? Try Samsung galaxy note 2 kit.. If you are able to enter the download mode, thats good.. you can flash using Odin or Heimdall. There are many rooted roms that will get you through. Dr Ketans has solutions. Try loading a stock rom from SAmmobile

Hey guys I was working on using odin to root my 10.1 and it wasn't working. So i decided to try a factory reset and try odin from a fresh install. My device powered down to do the wipe and now it won't come back on. If i hold the power button the "galaxy note 10.1 2014 edition" screen shows up and then the device just turns off again. How do I fix this?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm freaking out a bit.
What root method were u trying ? Which version of galaxy note 10.1 2014 do you have p600, p605, p601 etc ? Did you use appropriate rom for your note?
It seems it is soft brick, it is not irrecovable problem, you can fix it by odin, i am not sure how, you should research about it.
I can get into odin mode. but that is it.

I had experinced brick problem in my n8000 galaxy note old thats why i had researched so much thing one year ago, it was hard brick and did not enter even download mode, lucky you, it enters download mode Which means soft brick. You can reflash your custom rom easily. Please look at topics about soft brick.

Safest way to root would be to Odin a custom recovery then flash SuperSu zip file. It is much safer than the old CFautoroot way.

I have almost a same situation here with my brothers phone. I don't know why, but every time he manages to brick it like that. When booting into recovery from rom (power menu), it crashes the phone and it gets in a bootloop trying to get into the recovery.
What I did:
- Reflash recovery through odin (odin succes, phone fail)
- Reflash recovery through odin and erase nand (same...)
The only fix I found was to flash the stock rom and nand erase through odin, then flash the recovery (twrp 2.8.6.0), erase almost everything (sys, data, cache) and flash custom rom.
Looking at your pic, after nand write it fails, it could be that your nand chip is dead, and if it is like that, move to an other phone, it isn't worth to get a new mobo for your phone, those things cost more than 100 euro and a great new phone would get about 250 from you (like that asus zenfone, I think that is the one you should aim for if you want mid class to high class phones)

My Samsung note 2 won't move from the boot screen. It does boot into recovery when I press the buttons but it won't mount any files. Sideloading works through ADB but then that's just about it as it gives me errors. Tried to use Odin to unbrick it but it keeps giving me errors. What do I do? How do I unbrick my phone? I have posted a screenshot of the errors I am getting. Can someone please advise on what I should do?

The firmware you trying to flash xxalj3 (saw at screenshot) is very old 4.1.1 with sds bug also. Probably your phone has newer bootloader and 4 this you can't flash it, download latest firmware from Sammy and try again.

Got my phone to start working again after I installed a new eMMC. However when I updated it to a 4.4.2 Stock ROM, it won't register on to the network.

IMEI is the same as the one on the phone. I believe I must have installed the wrong ROM. I installed the N7100XXUFNL1 one which said Pakistan but then now that I checked it again, I found out it was for Nigeria, UAE, etc (which share the same CSC). Now I am downloading the N7100XXUFND4 one. Hope it makes a difference. I did backup my IMEI etc incase there is an issue.

Samsung had made efs partition update when released 4.3 if I remember well. This update was making by the kernel when was flashing the fw was updating the efs too. If you haven't flash original firmware via odin 4.3 or later probably your efs is not updated. Try to flash original fw via odin, I think it will work.
