$20 to whoever helps me Unbrick my soft bricked Note 3

Hello Everyone,
I am by no mean a novice in software/hardware repair, however, this Note 3 got me baffled. Not even the Cellphone repair shop was able to flash it, he tried 4.2, 4.3, 4.4 and a PIT file and still couldn't get it. I also tried ODIN 3.07 and 3.09 with a PIT I got from the Heimdall thread with no avail.
I also tried the Heimdall Tutorial and also failed. I have the option to send it to mobiletechvideos but $70 is a bit too much for me right now and they aren't even accepting new orders.
The phone originally freezing so every time it became unresponsive, I would pull the battery out. I have pulled the battery out at least 10 times. Then one time, I pulled it out and put it back in, restarted the phone, then the phone hung at the Samsung Logo.
However I have access to the download mode by pressing PWR + MIDDLE + VOLM DN combo. the following message appears:
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: SM-N900T
CURRENT BINARY: Samsung Official
SYSTEM STATUS: OFFICIAL
KNOCK KERNEL LOCK: 0X0
KNOCK WARRANTY VOID: 0X0
QUALCOMM SECURE BOOT: ENABLE (CSB)
AP SWREV: S2, T2, R2, A3, P2
WRITE PROTECTION: Enable
UDC START
Downloading...
Do not turn off target !!
Now, one thing worth mentioning, is when i try to factory reset using PWR + MIDDLE + VOLUME UP, I get the following message:
MMC: mmc_read fail
Movinand Checksum Confirmation Fail
by the way I don't have an SD card in there.
When I hook it up to ODIN 3.09 and try to insert the firmware and PIT file, here the message I get on the phone:
SECURE CHECK FAIL: PIT
ODIN: flash read failure
and on ODIN, it says:
Repartition Operation Failed.
I believe the NAND chip is corrupted and I might need to just get a new Logic board. But its worth a try before I try to shell out $50+ for a new one.
If anyone can help me with this, as in HOLD MY HAND and guide me through this by providing links etc, I have $20 in PayPal ready. If you are in the Orange County, California area, I can drive to you to give you your $20 and i'll buy you a Starbucks Frapuccino. Please help!

Call me a quitter, But I've sold my problem to someone else. Not worth putting more money into the thing. Thanks everyone!

I don't blame you, I Prolly would've done the same thing in that case

Help!!! I got a code om my Note 7 N930FD after I restarted the device.

I have been upset about this problem for several days.:crying::crying::crying:
A few days ago, my phone was turned off because there was no power, but when I plugged it in and restarted, it appeared on my screen: custom binary blocked by frp lock.
I tried using odin3 with the original rom to fix him but it didn't work, and I have tried dozens of update packages in a few days.
I think it may be because this one was bought by a former person into an unofficial 9.0 file but I don't know the version of the file.
After searching, I think it is enough to install the original system, but I have failed!
The Odin3 versions I have tried are: 3.11.1, 3.13.1, 3.12.3.
I also tried multiple versions of Rom from different sites, but each failed.
My computer can successfully read the phone, but when I put the file, press start, it will display the fail immediately, then the phone will appear " kernel rev check fail device 2 binary 0" or "kernel rev check fail device 3 binary 2."
If I only choose '' CP '', I can succeed. If I check other, it must fail.
Last but not least, I have another question, that is, my mobile phone is from Taiwan, and the model written on the back is N930FD, but my Download Mode shows that my mobile phone is N930F.
Here are the information currently displayed on my screen:
ODIN MODE
Download Speed: FAST
PRODUCT Name: SM-N930F
Current Binary: Samsung Official
System STAUS: Official
FRP LOCK: ON
Secure Download : Enabled
CCIC=S2MM005 hw: 3 boot:5 main:09
Warrantly VOID: 1 (0x030c)
RP SWREV: B:3 K:2 S:2
DID= 00358cb8a53c
DDI= HA5_416000
I hope that you can help me solve the current difficulties, and I also apologize for my poor English.

你试试用Odin刷入TWRP，然后在TWRP里面卡刷9.0固件包试试

Edit 1.
Uuupsi wrong Link...
Corrected.

I had the same problem earlier this week and get it fixed by the local Samsung Service center. The Service Center has the necessary tool to connect the watch and flash firmware.

My bad on Samsung active watch 2 R 820 I stupidly flashed the Odin but did not check the AP box resulting in :
1) watch reboots but I have no touch screen sensitivity
2) can get into wireless download but watch is searching for AP without success
Any ideas or am i bricked

@ajb_111
Can you remember what you flashed?
Filenames?
Best Regards

Thanks @adfree

[GUIDE] Unbrick Locked Huawei P20 Using HISuite Proxy

UNBRICK BOOTLOADER LOCKED/UNLOCKED HUAWEI P20​Requirements
HISuite Proxy
HISuite
Huawei Firmware Finder (Team MT)
Bricked Device (Locked or Unlocked doesn't matter)
Before You Start
This Guide is for Soft Bricked devices. (Phone should have a working Fastboot)
Bootloader Locked or Unlocked doesnt matter.
Check your Model No. written on back of your phone. Its either EML-L09 or EML-L29. You must Find and Flash Right links for your Model Number from FirmwareFinder, Country Code i.e. C55, C109, C782 etc. don't matter so Flash whichever one you like.
If your device bricked beacuse it failed on EMUI 10 update, make sure to Flash EMUI 10 CUST, PRELOAD & BASE Package otherwise it will fail.
Do this at your own Risk.
How to
Install latest version of HISuite and don't run it.
Open HISuite-Proxy as administrator and click on httpcomponent.dll, it will automatically search for httpcomponent.dll located usually in C:/Program Files(x86)/HiSuite and let the tool patch it.
Find your BASE, CUST, and PRELOAD packages on FirmwareFinder, they are needed to perform a system recovery and then insert their links into their respective textboxes in HiSuite-Proxy.
I filled these for EML-L09, just an example for you
Code:
[url]http://update.dbankcdn.com/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G5422/g1755/v407185/f1/full/changelog_base.xml[/url] EML-LGRP2-OVS 10.0.0.167
[url]http://update.dbankcdn.com/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G5422/g1755/v401513/f1/full/changelog_cust_ti_it.xml[/url] EML-L09-CUST 10.0.0.8(C55)
[url]http://update.dbankcdn.com/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G5422/g1755/v401526/f1/full/changelog_preload_ti_it_R1.xml[/url] EML-L09-PRELOAD 10.0.0.3(C55R1)
Select "Recovery OS" in HISuite Proxy.
Tick CUST PKG & Preloaded PKG Boxes in HISuite Proxy.
Make sure you don't close HISuite-Proxy throughout the entire process.
Open
Code:
C:/Users/yourusername/AppData/Local/HiSuite/UpdateDogDev/HiSuiteConfig.xml
and add an entry for your phone model if there isnt like this
Add your phone model below <REGION name="Default"> and <REGION name="China">
Code:
<rule type="EML-L09" cnName="HUAWEI P20" enName="EML-L09" option="" ></rule>
<rule type="EML-L09" cnName="荣耀 P20全网通" enName="HUAWEI P20" option="" ></rule>
Launch HISuite & Set HISuite to use a proxy in Settings and use IP: 127.0.0.1 and Port: 7777 as HISuite-Proxy says.
Get phone into Fastboot mode ( Power it off, then press power key + volume down for several seconds ) Connect it to PC by USB.
Click System Recovery in HISuite and it will hopefully start recovering your Phone.
Thanks to
@nomone for the Guide.
@IProfessor for the HISuite Proxy.
Team MT for FirmwareFinder.

Well done buddy, thanks for making this guide, keep it up!

Hi Suit gives me an info that my phone does not support system recovery is there anything that i can do?

Hi there @uzairabdulmajeed
I've followed all your steps but unfortunately, it doesn't work. After setting up HiSuite-Proxy, enabling my phone model on HiSuiteConfig.XML and pointing HiSuite to proxy 127.0.0.1, port: 7777, once I click System Recovery, and finally Recover, it has thrown an error: "No Internet connection. Please check your network settings". With removing the proxy and port on HiSuite I just got: "No recovery packages for your phone model".
Any idea? I really messed up with my phone and I need to recover it somehow

It’s related to v11 of HiSuite Just use version 10.x from Here
Full list of HiSuite versions: Full list

Many thanks to
@uzairabdulmajeed @nomone and @IProfessor for all the hard work. The above steps do work with the sidenote that the latest HiSuite version 11.x will fail with that "No Internet connection". so maybe a small notice/update to the OP will help others.

My P20 bricked after EMUI10 OTA Update...
I have tried the method here, with RecoveryOS option Hisuite didn't find any Recovery package, if I choose NormalOS, it runs and downloads all three zips, but failed in the step flash Recovery.
Can anyone help me? Thx.

Hi sorry for bringing this post back but is there other way I could unbrick my Huawei P20? I tried this method but failed, it says after clicking recover, "This device device is not supported for system recovery" something like that and the logs in HiSuite have messages like "FAILED (command write failed (Unknown error))\r\nfinished. total time: 5.003s\r\n[tid=18000]]]]" . Maybe there's another way for? This is a locked bootloader Huawei P20 (EML-L29-C636). Hope you can help me or someone could. Thank you.

is it possible to change my p30 pro single sim (VOG-L09) to p30 pro dual sim (VOG-L29) through hisuite proxy?

Possible to flash the EML-L09 EMUI10 Firmware on EML-L29?

Works but you will lose Safetynet pass, google pay will not work
You lose OTA updates too, you will have to always update using hisuite proxy.

Thats not a problem for Ota updates, Google pay and safetynet at least the phone will work

HELP ! S20 stuck after firmware update :(

Hi,
I'm using a S20 (SM-G980F), with XEF firmwares (France).
I was running on the august firmware (...DUH2), and tryied today to update my firmware to DUH5 via ODIN, and the upade process stay stuck on PRISM step.
Now my phone boot with blue screen "An error has occured while updating the device software. Use the Emergency recovery function in the SmartSwitch app"
I've try different solutions but don't find yet how to sort it out :
a) Try again flash of DUH5 via ODIN, exactly same issue (ie : update stops on PRISM step)
b) Opened SmartSwitch emergency recovery menu, but It don't list nothing... no way to choose my phone!
c) Try to flash back the previous DUH2 fimaware via ODIN, it stops at the very begning of the process with this
message in red :
ON_FAIL_SECURE_CHECK_FAIL
SM_REV. CHECK FAIL (BOOTLOADER) DEVICE : 0xa BINARY : 0x9
d) Try to flash another country version (DBT / Germany) of the last firmware DUH5, without no more success
I'm really disapointed, and the FoMo is growing
Any idea on how to resurect my precious S20 ?
