GT-N7105 no storage problem - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone,
i just got a 7105 from a friend to try and fix it, and i'm must say i'm amazed, internal storage/ data/ cache/ reads 0mb, it fails to mount everything, but i can access twrp recovery.
tried pit reformatting trough Odin, no success.
can i get some light on how to Reformat every partition something like forced formatting?
i'm willing to try everything, since the phone is as good as a brick now
Thanks

Is it the sudden death problem? mine Note 2 have this too it cant read anything and cannot install roms. Only boot to recovery and bootloader

The same happened to me once. Just go to twrp recovery >wipe>advanced wipe>select internal storage>repair partition>change file system>ext4 .
Do the file change for every single partition there (not every partition will get file system changed)
And done .. Now flash a rom and you are good to go. (Also dont mess with ext sdcard)
Press thanks if helped

I've tried it before, no success

Nope mine is confirmed dead by a technician and the people on XDA that my motherboard is broken so it reads 0mb and needs replacement, anyway i had moved on to Note 4 and huawei p9 plus now, fixing the note 2 is just not worth it.

[Q] Is my Wildfire Bricked ? orange/green blink

Hi Guys
I have a relly rare problem with my phone. The main problem is that i can't charge it. When I put it on the charger for probbably 10 sec. is charging (orange indicator) but then start blinking orange/green.
I tried also connect to PC, result is the same.
I thought that the problem will be in battery, but today at work I tried college battery and the problem is still the sme.
The funniest thing is, that I can turn - on my phone, get into boot-loader etc, but when i try to turn it on, it starts loading everything work's fine, but just begore the system is loaded (i can see the status bar, loading sd card), the phone shut down.
I really don't know what to do. I tried hard reset, restore backup from original HTC OS, turn on with/without sd card .... i think that everything
Could you help me somehow ?
Thanks
PS: sorry for my english
My boot loader is HBOOT-6-01.1002
RADIO-3.35.20.10
and i'm using Cyanogen Mod 7.03
try without the sdcard! sounds like something may be corrupt on it. if it all works fine without the card then i think a format is necessary ...... this will delete all sdcard data so make a backup 1st then start transfering needed things back slowly, testing a reboot on each new folder etc transfered. or run a disk check of sdcard on pc.
you could also try a fresh flash of the rom too.

Alright, looks familiar btw (exactly like mine lol) - did you have an ext partition? If not: any apps on sd? You said that you flashed the ROM again - did you format or wipe the system partition before? (If you run into ROM related probs most of the time it won't help just to flash the ROM over because the problems might resist).

Yes, i moved many apps on sd-card (i probbably don't have any ext partition,but not sure)
After new flash (if it mean's instaling new from from sd card) i used wipe dalvik cache, but after installation, not before.
So could you tell mr kind of step by step introductions what should I do, because i'm not really good in this stuff :-/
Thanks
Try flashing the rom again but with full wipes, not just dalvik cache. But also cache, data & system. After you do the wipes reflash your rom (and Gapps if needed). This will delete all your apps, SMSs and contacts though...

So i wiped data/factory reset, wipe cache partition, wipe dalvik cache, then installed cyanogen mod 7.2.0, but the problem still persists.
Now i think the problem will be somewhere with the apps on sd-card, because before the phone shut down, i can see in status bar text "preparing sd card" ....
Is there anything else i can do ?
and i didn't try flashing gapps, because i dont know what to do ? ... i need to download some zip and install it from sd ? or ?
Thanks

yes: remove those apps (you could do a backup with titanium backup) and try again. You did mention that earlier - a full wipe seems pretty useless if you leave parts that interact on a FAT32 partition... (or do you use an ext partition?).
If you start fresh without any apps on sd you could at least exclude this from the list of possible causes
To make this clear: from my experience there rarely will be one single easy action you could do to solve a persistant problem. Therefore most of the time it helps to follow all the steps of those procedures very careful, systematic and throw lazyness over board
So I'd do a full wipe/new install following this procedure:
format /system, /data
wipe /dalvik-cache, /cache
wipe all/factory reset
flash ROM
flash gapps
reboot without sdcard first (just to make sure)
and i didn't try flashing gapps, because i dont know what to do ? ... i need to download some zip and install it from sd ? or ?
Click to expand...

You'll need the correct gapps for your Android version and flash it right after flashing the ROM (has to be done as gapps are freely available by Google but aren't allowed to include into custom ROMs due to licences)
Gapps could be found here: http://goo.im/gapps
So i will try full / wipe (new installation)
I just don't know what you mean by "format /system, /data" and how to do it ... is it somewhere in recovery mode ? or there is any app for it ?
"(or do you use an ext partition?)" - not sure I created somthing probabbly like that, because i wanted to move my apps on sd card ... but not sure ... i'm pretty lame in this stuff.

yes, depends on your version where to find it - it's at "mounts and storage" / "format" here (if I'm not mistaken - sorry too lazy to go there now)

if you "created something" or have all your apps on sd you most probably have an ext partition which you should format/wipe, too, then (after backing up your apps...)
didn't help
formated /system, /data /sd-ext
wipe /dalvik-cache, /cache
wipe all/factory reset
then installed rom from zip , after that i installed google aps, turn it off (because of inserted sd card) than turn it on without sdcard .... but problem is still the same
Use the guide in my signature. First to unroot and S-ON. Then wipe SD card.
Then root again (also in sig), hopefully it'll be gone.

Today at work my colleague tryed your guide (step by step, unroot S-ON , wipe sd partition then root .... etc) but didn't help, he also gave mi error log from phone, so if somone could help me.
I can see some errors in there, but really don't know what to do. Can you help with that ?
Thanks a lot

he didn't get stuck anywhere ...
But after all that incident's i'll installed RUU and the phone working correctly (he is not shuting down on initialization)
but the charging problem is still in there (blinking orange / green when i want to charge it while it's ON).
Only way i can charge my phone is in bootloader but still better then nothing
So thanx a lot for advices.

Try to change your charger/data cable..may be its a charging port fault.

good idea. Having this said it might also be a good idea to carefully check your micro USB slot (this also causes a faulty behaviour with the car dock app sometimes) - you could give it a blast with compressed air to blow out particles (but be careful not to blow the stuff inside the phone).

Is it true that formatting your internal SD card will brick your phone?

I have avoided formatting my internal SD card via clockworkmod since day one out of fear that I will brick my phone. I format it all the time when its connected to my PC....but I heard it shares some system partitions with the internal storage? .....and formatting via CWM will brick your partition map?
Is there any re-partition files available for the galaxy s3 if corruption ever did occur?
This area is something I dont know much about, so please bare with my classifications if they are inaccurate.
Thanks!

I believe you can, as long as you install a rom before rebooting. I think i did it before but I can't say I'm sure.

I've done it before on CWM. I currently use TWRP though. Just load your ROM and anything else you need to flash on your extsd card. Format internal storage then flash your ROM of choice. I do this every time I flash a new ROM. I find it helps cut down on freezing and other issues.
As long as you flash a ROM after you wipe the internal storage your fine.

That's right. Formatting through recovery will not affect the boot or recovery partitions, so it's safe to do... but as SocalGuy79 said, just make sure you have the Rom zip you want to flash on your extSDCard.
I do that every time I install a new ROM. So no, it's perfectly safe, just make sure you flash a new ROM before you reboot lol.

Same here. I use TWRP 2.4.4, Format data usually too, I never backup and restore data for apps ever. And I very, very rarely ever have problems that others have with ROMs.

I have done something really stupid here. I formatted my /system and /data & /data/media using CWM and the rom i had loaded for flashing on the internal storage is now gone. I do not have an external sd card. I tried using adb to sideload or push the file but in vain since /data/media folder is missing. Will this be fixed if I flash stock ROM using Odin.
I can still boot into CWM and download mode.

Phone stuck in bootloop. Tried tons of things.

So, I have an N7100. I have rooted my phone a few times. The last time was over a year ago and it worked fine. Yesterday, suddenly (I haven't attempted to flash anything) it restarted on its own and won't boot. I tried to go into the TWRP recovery I had installed over a year ago, but TWRP will only load for a second and then disappear and the phone would restart again and go into the bootloop. As a result, I can't wipe cache partition.
I can confirm that I can connect successfully to ODIN and flash a different version of TWRP. I have failed to flash CWM so far... maybe I couldn't find a correct version since my phone has knox???
I tried flashing a different kernel, but that didn't work either. Do I need a specific kernel?
The only thing I need to do is recover my files, whether it is through recovering the phone, or accessing the internal storage.
Can someone please help me? I don't want to do a complete wipe.
And in case this is relevant, my ROM is the custom OMEGA rom, I'm not sure which version though. Either 31, or 26, which is either for android 4.3 or 4.4.2.
Thanks
Hey,
I have the same problem, the phone just restarted on it's own yesterday, restarted again and is now stuck at the bootlogo.
Wiping Cache and Dalvik on it's own doesn't suffice, Wiping the system partition too (TWRP) gets the phone to boot, but it will restart again after a couple of minutes, again stuck at the boot logo.
I'm using the limbean ROM.
shadnixx, wiping the system partition does not mean that you're going to loose your data - you should try that, after the factory reset the phone is usable for a couple of minutes, I will now try to flash a newer ROM and gapps, maybe the problem will go away with that.

Thanks for replying. I can't wipe the partition. That requires that I get into recovery, right? I can't even get into recovery. TWRP loads for just 1 second and then the phone reboots.

have you tried to reinstall TWRP recovery? Maybe yours is corrupted, try to flash the latest version again. If that help you boot in recovery, things will be easier to haddle after.

@shadnixx Well use every possible way to flash and enter custom recovery. Try Philz, TWRP, CWM, everything...
If everything fails you'lll have to reflash Stock ROM using Odin. I've heard is wipes data but not internal storage but I'm not sure and don't balme me if it happens. Search xda a little.
See these threads: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2583588

If that fails then the phone has hardware damage I think. Needs to go to service.

Thanks for your reply. That's what I'm trying to do. One question... do I have to have a specific CWM version that is compatible with my ROM?
Progress
OK, while flashing TWRP failed to help, flashing Philz Touch enabled me to get into recovery. I was able to mount the external SD card and browse the files, but the real problem is with the internal storage, since the SD card is removable. I couldn't manage to mount it. Can someone help with that?
Wiping the cache partition didn't help either.
You tried different tar versions of twrp?
What is the error message in Odin when trying to flash twrp?
Tried flashing twrp with different USB cables and USB ports?

I'm sad to report, after I wiped the cache and restarted my phone, Philz would behave like TWRP did, which is to load for 1 second then reboot. Yes, I tried 4 different versions of TWRP, same result. Odin doesn't give any errors. It says that flashing was successful. Tried different cables and ports too, yes.
Possible power button or battery problem?

Don't think so. I just replaced the battery... still same problem. And when I enter Odin "Download" mode, it doesn't keep restarting, so I don't think it's the power button.
I got a small update though...
Flashed another version of philz, which works every time I boot to recovery. A few problems though...
1. I can wipe cache partition, no problem. But When I try to wipe Dalvik, the phone reboots as soon as I try.
2. Aroma file explorer doesn't show any files.
3. I can mount external SD, but I can't mount internal storage
4. When using ADB, it could finally initiate pulling files from the internal storage (or that's what it appears to be doing), but only while on recovery mode. A few seconds after it says "listing files" or something, the phone reboots and the ADB operation aborts. It doesn't behave like this when I access other sections of philz recovery.
Any thoughts?
Another small update...
While using philz, I clicked the "install zip from sdcard" and it showed my folders. I think my files are intact, but I guess I can't be certain.
Small update again...
I flashed Aroma File Explorer from Philz, I managed to enter my internal storage browse around for a bit, but then the phone rebooted again. I tried to repeat so I could copy my internal storage, but now my internal storage says symlink error.

Listen up - Transfer any ROM to your external SD card, touchwiz based to avoid any complications if you can.
When you get into recovery (at least on TWRP 3 on my Galaxy Note 2 LTE this works) you can connect your phone to PC and transfer all the files, it just gets recognised.
If that fails then wipe /data and /cache partition and see if it boots. If that fails/succeeds then try to flash new ROM and wipe /data and see if it will boot. Data is not the same as internalSD. Data is your apps and settings, you can reinstall that later. InternalSD is your pictures and all. You want your pictures, not your apps, right? It is different.
But who knows what happened here. Malware? Corrupt partition? Hardware failure of some kind? Don't blame me if flashing a new ROM breakes everything even more.

Bricked HTC 10

Okay so I have been using viper ROM for ages now and got bored so decided to try cyanogenmod. Made a backup in twrp on my external SD card. Flashed resurrection remix, tested it. All went well. Then flashed gapps. Forgot to wipe, then got stuck in a bootloop where it would make me decrypt the phone with my lock code every boot and then it would be continuously stuck on optimizing apps, rebooting then asking for decryption again.
So I restored my back up thinking it would fix it. But it did not fix the issue. Now my HTC 10 is saying your data is corrupt even though pin was successful I need to factory reset. But now twrp will not mount internal SD card so therefor being stuck in a loop of this. It says 0mb on external SD. And I know that's because of the encrpytion but how do I fix this some one please help I'm stuck.

You need to format data in twrp to get rid of the encryption.
TWRP->Wipe->Format Data
I have tried formatting but it won't mount the internal SD card whatsoever, even after unlocking the encrpytion in twrp... Possible dead internal?
I think you might just wiping data/factory reset.. "wipe data" is different from "format data". You must format data.. don't swipe. Tap the format data button

..formatting data kills the encryption...so if you do it right, twrp will be able to mount the internal again and also be able to boot up without the encryption screen.
As said already, you probably just wiped the /data partition....you need to format that. thats an extra button in twrp->wipe
I have tried everything possible in twrp :/
Okay it worked sorry my bad thank you so much guys!!

TWRP crashing on startup with blue led and buzzing

Well, I accidentally formatted my phone a few days ago, connected to pc and flashed los 14.1 and gapps.
Now it turns out whenever I hold down the power and volume buttons it takes me to the TWRP teamwin project screen, then freezes with a blue led and a buzzing noise without taking me to the installation screen
Any help/suggestions on what I should do as I still want to download a oreo custom rom later?
Thanks,
B50Corei5
I had that problem, fixed it by flashing the stock kernel (boot.IMG) through fastboot.
I had that problem, also reflashed full stock ROM via fastboot (systemchunk + boot + recovery + cache + userdata even preload in a second time)
Now I can't flash cust recovery, but I can boot in it.
I can flash, via recovery, a custom ROM but can't boot in it.
Any idea?
Same problem
I am having the same problem...I am on lineage os latest unofficial by wonder wicked witch...and whenever I clear data and cache by twrp their is a buzzing sound and blue led...pls help me

Take complete backup of your internal storage using file manager present in recovery mode. "Format data" or change" format system partition" of data partition. try couple of times to format if first time format not working.
Isn't there any other method by changing recovery? By flashing it again
Pls tell some other method

For internal storage backup:
Recovery - File manager method did not work?
Change system partition format of data partition to some other format and revert it to original. It works perfectly.
nothing is happening

I formatted data partition by using wipe->format data. U need to type "yes" to confirm, because entire internal sdcard will be deleted. So make sure u have rom and other zip files saved on external sdcard.
Then i used advanced wipe->repair/change filesystem and changed it to ext4 and then back to f2fs.
2nd time i installed los, i made sure not to set up a pin after 1st boot during rom setup, then tried to reboot into recovery, but ended up with black screnn + blue led. I tried to reinstall twrp via fastboot - no success. Then i formatted data partition via fastboot, which made me boot into recovery again.
I still dont get why and when blue led happens or encryption fails although ive never seen a "encryption failed" message. Only the blue led...
Thanks guys for the help, got it sorted by flashing stock ROM in fast boot ?

In order to fix this, you have to do a data wipe via fastboot and then flash twrp again. If you are coming from stock rom, you need to change data partition to ext4 (by default it;s f2fs) and it should work fine. I think that f2fs has its advantages, but twrp does not seem to support it. Maybe on a future update
