I tried to unroot my phone via OCLF from the market. It went dark, then got the normal Vibrant screen, the the Galaxy S screen, then it went dark again. Now, it just sits. Black screen. All the buttons at the bottom are lit up. :-/
Anyone?
Silly question, I know. But did you have a nandroid backup, by any chance?
This is probably a last resort, but try boot into recovery and wipe everything. This fix the problem for me, the downside is you lose all you data.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
If you are anything like me, recovery didn't work and using Odin and reflashing Stock with repartition didn't work either.
You'll need to use odin to flash Eugenes "Vibrant that doesn't brick" (NO REPARTITION), then use odin again to flash Stock (check repartition this time) and you'll be good to go.
You can try to flash the froyo rom with odin...... I had that same exact problem and this is what fixed it for me. Once froyo us flashed then you can flash whatever rom you want. Hth
Ok, I probably should have stated that I'm a complete newby and have no idea what I'm doing. I believe I do have nandroid, but other than that you all are speaking French to me.
Right now I'm in the recover mode (I think). It's hooked up to my computer and I'm in the "Downloading... Do not turn off target!!" mode. This is where I'm stuck...I have no idea where to go from here.
Please talk to me like I'm a 5 year old, because as far as this is concerned, I am!
Oh, and thank you so much for any help you can give me!

Well, good news is... you didn't brick your phone, this is recoverable. Best idea would be to search the forums on how to ODIN back to Stock. Theres plenty of posts on how to do it. You should also be able to find this in the tips & tricks threads. Good Luck.
Thank you all for your help! I recovered it!! Seems as though I was just going about it the wrong way!! I got into the actual recovery mode and cleared it all out. Now it's as good as new!
Again, appreciate your help and patience with what I'm sure is the 120,000th post on this subject. ;-)

MF3 = motochopper does not work. You would need to root using this method:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2387577
NOTE: You cannot unroot once you do it. If you mess up your phone with root, there is likely no way to fix it. There is no possibility of installing a custom recovery, even after you have root...and so you can't flash any ROMs either. Know the risks and issues before you proceed and make sure root is THAT important to you.
Since you are on MF3 there is also no way to downgrade to previous firmware, you are stuck with the above restrictions until someone figures out a new exploit...and no ETA on that.

I hate to say it, but because your on mf3 and you tried to use causal, you've borked your phone. Afaik there is not currently away to recover it. You have to wait until if or when an odin flashable firmware comes out. You could try jtag but I don't think that even works. As a last resort try kies emergency recovery.

I seriously doubt he got root.
It sounds more like he got it to boot (misspelled words).
No recovery and no way to factory reset. Sad.
Will all these folks be borked forever? On that note, I discovered an automated text survey after talking to AT&T support on the phone to light up a new SIM for a different handset. I gave high marks for the person's help, and low marks on AT&T in general, and in the last survey screen where you supply your comment, I told them what I thought of them locking the bootloader on the Samsung-SGH-I337.
The experience was not unlike wetting myself while wearing a dark suit, it gave me a warm feeling and hardly anyone will notice.

Hello I just go my S4 today. I downloaded goomanager because I wanted to install TWRP. It did not work. Now when I try to reset back to factory settings I keep getting a screen that says downloading do not turn off target. How can I fix this and get it back to the normal recovery mode?
i have no idea what carrier or device (i337 / i337m) you have.
when you got your device did you check in settings to see what build number you were running and then check out the material on xda before proceeding? there's ways of doing things that can save you headaches if you browse and read first. cheers
Dude, you pretty much hosed your new phone by not doing your home work before messing with it. I'm sure you're on mf3 firmware. Your best hope is to get it re-flashed at a bestbuy with the Samsung experience. You'll have some explaining to do! Good luck!

You can probably get it to boot by pushing vol down when it goes to download mode. But your recovery is messed up now.

I have the same issue. I manage to reboot the phone by turning it off, holding the power and volume down buttons, then when it asks if I'm sure I want to install a custom ROM, I hot cancel (volume down) and it reboots like normal.

You're not going to be able to get it into recovery. Bestbuy is your best solution. Or wait until if and when an odin flashable firmware is available.
Im getting out of it that way too. But if I ever want to update or anything this will stop me i think. I can use it for now but I really want to fix it. nothing worse than having a phone for an hour and ****ing it up.

No, it has to be mf3 firmware and it's not currently available. Trying to flash an earlier firmware won't work. There is a qfuse in the phone's circuitry that is blown when mf3 is on the phone which won't let you downgrade.

Hey... I jacked up my phone installing a custom recovery with GooManager too. It isn't for our phone. To get back to Android from DL mode just do power button+vol up+home and it will send ya back. Take it to Best Buy and say Kies broke your phone. You were trying to run an update and it messed it up. They can fix it for ya. Obviously you're rooted so just delete Superuser.apk and delete all root apps. Just in case. And don't be a derp and tell them the phone was rooted... Good Luck.

I tried putting in a rom earlier for my note 3 and it didn't take.
I ended up on that, vibration boot loop.
Odin still worked fine so I tried putting in an original stock rom with root, so I can add recovery.
I could not actually find a fully suitable rom choice, and the samsung website didn't play well with me either. firstly it would not let me register for some reason...anyway.
I am UK on O2 running 9005 SO I put in N9005XXUDMJ7-PRE-ROOTED-KNOX-FREE-ODEX-BL-FREE
I don't know if that was the right choice, I set it up on PDA, and unclicked partition
It's been stuck possibly hanging on ext4 sys for over an hour.
The references I have seen suggest it takes a long time but how long is too long?
I don't want to pull the plug to brick the device completely.
I have a cwm recovery so all I need is to put the recovery back in and I should be good to go...
If this is hanging, what other options do I have?
How long is too long?
Any help fixing this would be greatly appreciated, and a drinks on me...
I am kinda freaking out, have seen similar threads, but because the firmwares are so different they didn't really help..or perhaps I misread things...but nothing really covered not being able to load the recovery software itself
consider me lizard brain in freak out mode right now..
please reply promptly with something.

Over one hour is too long to flash something even a full stock rom. Something is wrong there.
So you're saying you have no access to an original stock rom of your phone? If there is a problem like this flashing, I would flash the stock rom first then just root and install cwm. The first thing you want to do is have a working phone then just do the other stuff after like rooting, etc..
If what you posted is your stock rom, then download here and flash through odin.
There's also a newer one which is MK2 which you can download here.
Either one is stock.
Downloading the mk 2 now to test
That sorted me out thank you very much.

There are a lot of good people here that will help you. You don't need to give anything back. And be sure to ALWAYS have a NANDROID backup so that you can restore your phone if anything bad happens.
anyone experienced this issue? already tried removing the battery for a couple of minutes, factory reset, wipe cache partition, still not working. but using S-pen works.
Did you root your phone? How long ago did you purchase your Note 4? Replace it if you did not root your phone.

Nope, haven't tried rooting it. just purchased it last Jan 6 2015. too bad i purchased it in gray market, the store won't replace it.
In what situations is the screen not being responsive? Is it all the time? I suppose factory reset didn't help? Could be an issue in the digitizer registering inappropriate touch signals as you touch the display. Is the screen not being in touch-responsive in all areas of the display? Might want to reflash the Stock ROM using ODIN, if a factory reset and clearing the cache doesn't help.

what i was doing before this happened, im downloading an ebook through torrent and using tubemate app then it froze. what i did was i removed the battery for it to restart. after turning on, the lockscreen can't be unlocked by swiping using my finger or any gesture, but by using the S-pen I can navigate and tap everything just like normal, tap everything on the display only by using the Spen.
yes factory reset and wipe cache partition didn't help. im thinking of rooting it as it also doesn't have any warranty and also your advice to reflash the stock ROM. i hope you can help me on that one as I've been using an iOS device for quite sometime and im outdated with android's tricks..
Rooting would require another thread, because the rooting process is different in the Note 4 than it was when I rooted earlier devices.
Not sure if you downloaded malware which would potentially cripple the device, but factory reset with data cache would have resolved that part.
A new digitzer costs $172 or so.

i'm not sure if this is the one that you're looking for, mine is note 4 N910U.
i also read your post on the other thread and unfortunately, i paid cash.. though the store has a warranty where their tech can check what's wrong on the phone, but if something needs to be replaced, i will shoulder it. they have return policy but only for 3 days. this is the downside of getting cheaper price than from samsung stores.
How much were you even saving?
Well since the "U" is an international model, what is current firmware flashed on your phone? Go to settings and update us
Download the latest Stock ROM here,
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-N910U/
Before downloading, let us know the current firmware and country of origin, so you that you can flash the appropriate ROM.

Yes for downloading firmware u need to sign & login.
im now downloading the firmware.. fingers crossed..
while im still downloading the firmware, i removed the simcard and batter for about 20 minutes. then i put them back and then the touch worked after a few minutes, it went back to the same problem.. im not sure if this is a hardware issue.

yes, but I already tried putting the spen back to its place and even getting it far, still finger wont work.
already tried flashing the Stock ROM, but the problem is still there. :crying:
I also have almost same symptom as yours.
Did u install any screen protector?
If yes try to remove it and clean the screen. Work for me.
If not, u might need to send to repair shop.

i'm using a cheap tempered glass myr20 (around 5usd)
the tempered glass seems like it drain water and my hand easy to get sweaty.
it was obvious when i run a game where the touch keep pressing.
during other time like after a call my screen will be unresponsive and only s-pen is working.
will change to a bit expensive tempered glass. it myr99 (around 27.25USD).
