Device accidently bricked - Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers

Hello!
I’ve got very disappointing thing, I was using Magisk root for my Galaxy S10+. All was okay, then I came into my vacation, today I was dealing with YouTube and YouTube Vanced, trying to let YouTube vanced open from chrome youtube links, I did force stopped YouTube and disabled it.
Also I have installed MicroG for YouTube vanced and XDA Labs to check it out after.
I didn’t succeed in allowing YouTube vanced to open videos from chrome links. Then I decided to delete it via Titanium backup and started to install again from XDA LABS.
Suddenly my device rebooted and started an infinite bootloop to Download mode. Blue screen with “Downloading...Do not turn off target. Nothing helps, I can access recovery, but neither cache cleaning nor factory reset doesn’t help. I am so desperate that I got bricked phone at my vacation in foreign country. Please, someone can tell me what can I do to make alive my phone ?
Big thanks in advance!

Just download the proper firmware for your device model (matching version you are currently running) and flash it with odin.....
[Google which csc version to flash to not Wipe your device....]
You should be back and running.
Btw you are nowhere near "Bricked"
Worse case scenario you loose all your data not backed up to the cloud or external sdcard.....but even that may be avoidable

@louforgiveno Thank you for reply! Can I flash AP firmware without patching it with Magisk?

Technically not bricked, just a bootloop. Follow the answer from louforgiveno and you'll be fine!

Help me pls! could not use playstore/google service after root

As title, i root my tab s 8.4 today by the cf-auto root, after that i could not use any Google service.
i tried the method i could search on the forum, reset auto date/time, clear cache, delete google service data/ apps, update these service, factory reset, clean flash rom and its still not working. now i totally cannot download any apps from playstore or use apps that connected to google play.
update: after send to samsung service center, they could not found out whats wrong with my tab. They reflash local original firmware for me(before send i flashed a Russia firmware). somehow they able to erase all stuff very clean without leaving any trace that i mess up and it work perfectly. BTW they did do it free for me (under warranty even i rooted and trigger the knox to 1 with warranty void).

Thats a random one, best solution i can give you there is going into settings and doing a full reset, your tablet gets wiped but your personal documents get left...then when you sign back into google all ur apps should redownload themselves and your contacts and it will still be rooted m8....let us know how you get on pal.

Crikey....then i would reccommend
Flashing http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...recovery-twrp-2-7-1-0-touch-recovery-t2817100 , twrp recovery.
Then this rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s/development/prerooted-stock-touchwiz-rom-t2973107 t800/t805
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s/development/stock-tw-rom-galaxy-tab-s-8-4-t2995235 t700/t705
If this doesnt do the trick just dwnload the latest firmware for you from sammobile.com , extract the file inside the zip, use odin to flash it...this is the 1.6gb sized file im talking about, it will completely re go over EVERYTHING there is to go over except obviously your personal stuff...you will end up with an unrooted deep factory reset devices...then try another root method...if your feeling brave ...good luck m8

Hello. Does google play force stop or...? Does it say cant connect bla bla bla?
The only thing I can suggest is installing cm11 and flash the gapps package. It should remove google play and reinstall it.

Hey Thanks for the fast reply.
Well, it crashes all the time, have to keep hitting ok, so i uninstalled the play store etc. I rooted and wanted CM in the first place so this will be awesome If i can get it working. I noticed that the installer isnt supported but could you link me to the best tutorial to follow. I have only done this once on my S3.
Thank you in advance and peace.

Installer? You need to install twrp recovery. Just download flashify (from playstore) and install the latest twrp.
I assume you have the Tab S 8.4 SMT700? If so http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=54549581 is the link and download for cm11. This is for google apps forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2397942
And download this for supersu http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu
Just download all that.
Heres a video I made for how to install cm12. The procedure to install is still the same. http://youtu.be/K96siaPKtrU

Why is my Play Store uncertified?

I never was aware of this before. When I was setting up my phone again after unlocking my bootloader I saw that my play store is uncertified. Does this have to do with the bootloader?

If you're running magisk after a few reboots it'll go certified or you can just go to settings apps Google Play Store clear data and it'll go back to certified

Yeah I don't think you'll ever be certified if you run just SuperSU I believe the only rom that will say certified if you run it stock is pure Nexus other than that it'll always say uncertified until you install magisk.
It's not a big deal there's just a few banking apps and think of Mario run maybe Netflix which some of those you can get off the mirror site

If you're not rooted or not on a custom rom I would go to settings apps Google Play Store and clear the data
The bootloader is a safety net check. Probably what's causing the issue.

Ok but what if bootloader was unlocked then relocked, never rooted, factory reset, and from fresh boot it says not certified. Even finished set up and cleared data / cache and still squat.
Granted its only blocking Netflix now but its still not "right" any ideas is greatly appreciated

Clear data and cache of Google Play Store. Then reboot. It should become certified.

Sure sounds like it should say certified after your steps. Sounds like there is some remnant of the certification on the Google side. Wondering if you have another device logged onto the same Google account (or one to start fresh with and test like an old phone that you could use over WiFi). Maybe it would resolve a conflict.
As for the Netflix block, the side-load version on the Netflix site works fine. The bootloader is unlocked on both of my boys' phones, but they are not rooted (so I can't use Magisk Hide on the Play Store). It still trips SafetyNet because of the unlocked bootloader, so I needed to install the .apk.
I just Magisk Hide root from Play Store and Google Play Services, clear Play Store storage and reboot phone. Then it goes back to being certified and I can find Netflix again without a problem, even with my bootloader unlocked.

Netflix issues after root?

Hi all, I recently rooted my phone and for some reason Netflix won't launch at all. It just hangs on the Netflix logo. If I reninstall the app on first launch the app will force close and then after re-lauch it will once again hang on the Netflix logo. I've cleared the cache and deleted any folders relating to netflix. I'm not sure what to try next or if anyone has any advice on how to fix this that would be amazing. thank you!
Edit: I've found a solution to this problem! Follow this guide here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ap...le-netflix-t3708126/post74586497#post74586497
After downloading and installing the old April 2017 Netflix app simply lauch
The app and sign in. After you have signed in update the app on Google play
And you should be good to go! Hope this helps anyone else with the same
Issue ?

I've had Netflix work on every previous rooted phone i have had, is this just a Razer phone issue? Even hiding the root from Netflix in Magisk doesn't seem to do anything.

The bootloader needs to be locked. I would not advise trying it unless the phone is 100% stock as there have been issues mentioned in the past.

It's either root or bootloader it checks but it's only something they started doing months ago. pokemon go does it too.

Damn, that's discouraging. No wonder why I've been holding off rooting this device. I'm not use to a/b root anyway. Before my razer, I had an s5 for many years so I know a lot of things have changed since then.

Android Auto - Something went wrong. Google play services doesn't seem to be working

I have had a problem loading Android Auto (AA) on my LG G4. I have rooted with Steadfaster's UsU and installed his Lineage 15.1 rom, opengapps nano (Sept 30) and the phone is working great. Prior to rooting the phone AA worked fine with MM 6.0. After rooting the phone, when I open the AA app on the phone I get the error "Something went wrong. Google play services doesn't seem to be working right now". The error comes up immediately and then the app closes. I tried plugged into in the car as well (Pioneer AVIC 4200 deck), but the error stops the phone when opened.
I have been through Google's forums and there have been lots of posts about this error and no real solutions for me posted. I have also tried other "fixes" I have come across, including this one - https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help/delete-disable-downgrade-prevent-update-t3091832/. This method involves:
1. Download and install System App Remover from the Google Play Store.
2. Put your device in Airplane Mode in order to prevent auto upgrade of GPS.
3. Open System App Remover and select "System App" from the menu.
4. Find Google Play Services in the list. It should be marked "Should keep", which is a suggestion from the publisher. Select it and press "Uninstall". Ignore completion message.
5. Using Settings/Apps, verify that Google Play Services has reverted to the factory-supplied version. It should be <7. "Force Stop", "Uninstall Updates", and "Disable" buttons should no longer be grayed out.
7. Reboot device and toggle Airplane Mode off.
I followed these steps, but unfortunately stock seems to be the version that came with opengapps which is current.
I'm out of ideas with this problem and need some help. AA is a great app for me and really handy on long trips. I would like to get it running if at all possible.
Appreciate any help you can provide.

Even when it sounds obvious but have you installed AA clean so without restoring data from a backup? Do you have tried to completely factory reset the phone? Do you have tried to format data in TWRP? Obviously you should have a backup of your internal storage when doing so .
You should also catch a logcat when starting the app

After rooting with UsU I followed sdembiske's recommendations for installing Lineage. This included a factory reset and formatting data with TWRP. I then installed Lineage 15.1 UsU and opengapps nano and then installed the apps I wanted. AA went on clean without restoring data. I will capture a logcat and post.

I have been through that forum and tried the last post just now - uninstall updates, clear cache, open AA - and I immediately get the error.
I'm thinking about doing a Titanium backup on apps and data (minus AA) then wipe, reinstall LOS 15.2, TWRP, Lineage SU, do a reboot, reinstall AA first and if it works then run Titanium restore for apps and data.
Make sense?

Well I wiped cache, Dalvik, system and then formatted data, installed the 15.1 UsU rom, then installed Gapps, rebooted to recovery and installed the Lineage addonsu. I rebooted, went through setup and the first thing I did was open the Playstore install Android Auto and run it - immediate error again. Also the addonsu did not root the phone. And to top it all I did not disable the pin code.
Back to the drawing board.

I have been beating the bushes and looking for a solution. None so far. You mention AA worked on your phone. Are you running LOS 15.1 and if no, which rom? Also re your install can you look in apps and notifications and see if the more options * is shown on the AA app. I have it, but when I select it nothing happens. My old Nexus 5 the * works and Android Auto opens no problem. LOS 7.1.2.

I run LOS 15.1 build 20181002 and at the time of installing that ROM version I used this opengapps version: open_gapps-arm64-8.1-nano-20180705.zip (download)
AA works here yes. I run it now for several days, daily, no issues here.
My version of AA is 3.7.584044 (attached: View attachment com.google.android.projection.gearhead-ffadc269cc39417e152ffcdd22183045.apk)
Not sure what you mean by "the more options *" but I've attached 2 screenshots of the app settings which may show what you meant.. if not show a pic of that setting.
oh you may meant the gear symbol at the top right? Here it opens fine but as that opens google stuff it makes sense that it fails on yours

Isn't mine basically the same as yours, other than H815? That gear icon will not open up the more options page. On my Nexus 5 with LOS 7.1.2 it opens a page with Settings for AA ie: Limit wifi, Connected cars, phone screen settings, etc.
If not the same maybe I should run your version of LOS.

I've mentioned and linked the opengapps version, attached the AA version and mentioned the exact build for a reason yes.
The idea was that you try the exact same setup.
btw: which model do you have?

H812 on the UsU Oreo build H812 build.
So I can copy what you have, other than I'm using the H812 versus the H815 LOS rom.
Thanks steadfasterX
steadfasterX, is it necessary that I format the data when I reload this rom. Takes a long time to restore everything.

Use my latest preview version of TWRP then you can backup your data AND internal storage . you can first try without format. if you still have issues try to format it and if it doesn't fix anything you can restore by TWRP but ensure that you use build 144 or higher
Sent from my LG-H815 using XDA Labs
OK, thanks again. Will give it a go. I have your latest TWRP, 144_g4_0.
On the positive side after all kinds of failed troubleshooting my G4 has all of a sudden decided to connect with my PC. It shows as H812 in Explorer and in Device Manager as Lemobile Android Device with Android Composite ADB Device driver. A lot easier than using Cloud.

Gave it a go, but as soon as I tapped on AA the error came up. I did format data to start from clean and used the older versions of AA and Google Play.
Update - I reinstalled all my apps via Titanium Pro (not AA) and set things up. I decided to tryy AA one more time before removing it and bingo it opened. Kinda waking on broken glass here and unsure whether or not the app will continue to function. Hooefully this fixed things.
Thanks again steadfasterX.

Question Unable to install Netflix after rooting

So, I managed to root this beauty 1+9 Pro relatively easily.
I got Magisk installed, and hid all the Apps that needed hiding.
Even Google Pay works.
But I can't for my sanity figure out why Netflix or Android OS 11 is refusing to let me install Netflix.
Everytime I try to install the Netflix App latest APK, extracted from my old working phone ( Razer Phone 2 also rooted), it will just give me the error message " Sorry No Application Available "
Does anyone have a clue what can be done to make Netflix install in a rooted 1+9 Pro ?
Thanks.
BTW i tried several Netflix App version already.
Also I do know the APK works because I used it to install on another Tablet that will not show up Netflix on Google store.

Is Netflix currently installed as a system app? I wasn't able to uninstall that or get it working, so when I was on 11.2.2.2 I managed to fix it by installing a *newer* version of the Netflix apk that I grabbed from apkpure.com, over top of the system app. Then I had the same issue again on 11.2.4.4, and that method didn't work anymore. However, that time it let me uninstall updates to the app and then update in the play store.
I dont know how exactly, but Netflix still detects the rooted device and denies the install from google play, I think based in the unocked boot loader not sure.
I managed to install from apkmirror and is working fine now.
there is a catch though.
They are moving away from simple apk install and using apk bundles, like some sort of tarball with several apks in it, so you will need this apkm installer app for it to install the newer version. to get this installer working you need to disabled MIUI optimizations from dev options. thats all, I got mine working this passed saturday that way
EDIT: never mind with that MIUI option i thought this was a diffirent model, none the less the apkmirror is still worth a shot
I some how managed to force install it via Titanium Backup, but then it gives me another error when I try to run Netflix App.
" This device is not supported by the app "
it's running the latest version Netflix v7.102.0 build 12 35461
You have to install Magisk Canary, once you do so reboot the phone. Wipe Google play stores data and cache.. magisk hide Netflix and the Google Play Services reboot once more. That's how I got mine to work.
Install: liboemcrypto disabler
from Magisk, reboot ....enjoy

This sort of worked for me, it game me a failed message, but at least it tried to install, unlike the other Apps that wouldn't even let me try to install.

Just tried, it did not work unfortunately, it's probably related to that SafetyNet error I have in Magisk.
avid_droid said:
Make sure you have magisk canary installed to pass safetynet. Stable magisk doesn't work.

Yeah, I got the SafetyNet thing fixed.
However still unable to install Netflix.
still getting "App Not Installed" error, when I try to install the APK.
I tried installing the "liboemcrypto disabler " as suggested a few messages back, and also doesn't seem to make any difference.

Have you tried to look for it on the play store after fixing safetynet?

I just did after reading this.
It's not showing up in Google Play store.
It's just so weird, everything else works, Google Pay (wallet), Pokemon Go, Banking Apps, everything else that usually will complain and refuse to run when Root is detected, are all working fine, except for Netflix.
avid_droid said:
Try clearing cache and data then try reinstalling app over current Netflix. That's what I do and it works everytime

I'm thinking maybe I'll need to un-root my phone, update Netflix, see if it runs without root, if it works, then try to root again and figure how to go from there.
... what a hassle

I did this and had the same problem while unrooted, so it turned out to be a waste of time. It seems to have an issue with the unlocked bootloader, not just root. At least with root you can hide unlocked status, which is a step in the right direction. Hide root from Netflix, and also hide magisk app itself in magisk settings.
If you're trying to install Netflix over the system app, make sure to first uninstall updates to the system app so it's the oldest possible version. Then make sure whatever version you're installing on top (whether from play store or APK download) is newer than your installed version. Older versions will not install over newer ones.

There are sai versions floating around here that work search xda also make sure you magisk hide Netflix before you open it initially. Or hide them clear cache and data on netflix

Update.
Minor good news.
I wiped the phone from recovery mode.
So, the phone is kind of factory mode, I completed the "new" phone setup thing, and the first thing I went to try was Netflix and it worked.
So... it appears to be something to do with Root and/or Magisk being detected.
Update 2
More good news, I rooted it again, installed Magisk and Netflix is still working.
Not sure why it wasn't working before, also not quite sure what was the actual fix.
I don't really consider a full system wipe a "fix" but well that did it for me.

A wipe isn't necessary but glad you got it working

So, I just imported Apps and Data from the old phone again via Google "setup my device" transfer, and now Netflix got disabled again.
I'll try again and skip Google transfer to find out if that helps.
I can always use One+ Switch App to see if that is better.
avid_droid said:
OnePlus switch will still result in the same issue. Clear data and cache,install the app link I provided and make sure magiskhide is set to on.

Seems like it worked,
I installed a full APK from my old phone and now it's able to run.
However it still doesn't show up in Google Play store when I search for Netflix.
