[Q] Phone bricked? Help!

Dear XDA-Developers,
I have a big problem,
I tried to root my phone, but something went wrong.
I tried Chainfire autoroot and it told me that it failed while it's flashed the chache.
What can I do now?
I tried to flash Cyanogemond and it failed too. (Via Odin PDA)
Download Mode is still working but Recovery isn't
How can I bring it back to life?
Please help,
with greetz,
a XDA-developers fan!
PS:
If I boot the phone it's telling me that I should connect it to Kies, but Kies is not working correctly. Please help
(It's the Galaxy Note 3 Neo sm-n7505)

- FYI, there is another place for Note 3 Neo. Here is the box for Note 3
- You can reflash the full stock firmware, that may fix the problem

Thank you for reply,
I'm sorry if I missed the part in the forum,
but I don't know where to find the Stock-rom for my phone
I searched for it and I found some really slow download links,
I wasn't able to find my language code for the rom.
How can I flash it with odin and what files do I need?
thank you!

To download the stock firmware for your device, install Phone INFO ★Samsung★ app > Menu > 'Firmware Browser' > select the firmware to download. You can flash it by using Odin or Kies.

I'm downloading the Stock Rom called PHN-N7505XXUANAD-20140213143707.zip is it the correct file?
and can I flash it just with odin on my phone?
The first time I tried to root it said while it flashed the chached "failed" and then it freezed and stopped working,
it's not booting but I can still access Download mode,
so I need to open Download Mode, being connected with the computer and let Odin it flash via the "PDA or AP" function right?
Thank you for helping! It's not done yet, but hopefully it will be recovered soon.

Another problem appeared,
it seems that the link is not working.
Another link just stopped sending packages so it stopped downloading
Then I tried the app on another android device and it said that I have to register,
so I registered and then it told me "Bad Gateway".
Please help!

Hello Ilikepie13,
Best thing you should do is to download it by yourself. Not from another tool. (sorry vndnguyen , no offense)
Why so ? Because , the more you do things by yourself , the more you will learn and understand how it works, and the less problem you will have.
To download your firmware , go to "SamMobile" (reference website) , than click on FIRMWARE
(you will need to register , it is free , don't worry)
Hope it helps

For more information : Here is the link :
h t t p : / / w w w . sammobile.com/firmwares/1/?model=SM-N7505&pcode=PHN#firmware
[remove the spaces ]
TYPE = Smartphone
OS = Android
MODEL = sm-n7505 - Galaxy Note 3 Neo LTE
Country = Netherlands - NPH
I assume all this reading your previous posts.
You will then find the 4.3 Samsung firmware from February 2014 , with PDA = N7505XXUANAD
click on it to go to :
h t t p : / / w w w . sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=25483

You will then have a summary + Download link + instructions.
The Download link works once you are logged in ! (I have tested it myself)
Enjoy.

"One Click Root for android"

Hello everyone, yesterday i'm was with my 5.0.2 stock firmware with root and finally got some balls to update it with the "pre-root" method and everything's work's so bad, after install recovery, and did all the wipe's, I went to install the pre-root zip, and comes, crash after crash, finally, I use my PC-Companion to revive my cel phone, but now, it's 5.1.1 with no root (this is totally bad) So, searching in the internet to collect all the methods and try to use the better explanation, i find this video, and this site, I really think it's just a flammer or something like it, but, i prefer try, because i'm afraid to do all again and do the same crashes and again and again and again..
Humm, i'm seeing that i can't post links because i'm newbee here, so, the video is the 1 if we search:
How To Root Sony Xperia Z3 D5803
And the link for the site is in the description, it told to enter in a site, plug the cel phone and click in one button.
Ty guys, i will w8 for some answers.
PS: sorry about my bad english.

For my part I don't use this method because KingRoot has a "malware" (link) from what I read on different forums then it's quite persistent. I advise you to follow the traditional method : link.
Regards.

Need Firmware for smartwatch QW09 (MTK6572)

Hi all. I got a watch qw09 from China without gapps. My attempts to find the gapps that works on this watch were not successful. Then I downloaded the firmware from Gearbest (v 3.2.8) and flashed it on the watch. Google applications started working well, but the application for calls is very old and uncomfortable, overall performance has decreased. I had noticed that the Chinese version of the firmware has been 3.5.X. That is, exist more new versions of firmware for our watches qw09. Please, someone make backup of your firmware, let try to update the watch on your version.
Thanks. And forgive me for my bad english.

Firmwares
v.3.2.8 (thanks GearBest) - http://www.gearbest.com/blog/download/tenfifteen-qw09-smartwtch-phone-firmware-pack-321
v.3.5.4 (thanks pavel18) - https://yadi.sk/d/6w_lrZXa3Gej8o
All firmwares with Gapps.

Hi all,
I recently purchased a QW09 and unfortunately on day 2 of ownership it goes into a blank screen just after FunOS completes booting. It does not boot loop, just a black and black screen. I know the OS is active though because if I plug the watch into my PC and can see and interact with all directories.
First my question is has anyone else ran into this, and if so what did you do to remedy?
Secondly I would like to troubleshoot this before sending it back. I would like to try and reinstall the firmware based upon availability I see here.
* will this firmware work on any QW09, or is it manufacturer specific?
* does any have the instructions to install i.e. what tools/apps to use?
Thanks in advance for whatever help you can offer

No problem as long as I use wifi for bandwith requiring apps including Google Play. To save battery disconnect wifi and stop GPS when you don't need them.

I am having some troubles installing twrp or upgrading to 3.5.4 firmware. Could you tell me how you managed to upgrade and flash the recovery I have been fumbling around with both spflashtool and flashtool never suceeds surprised I haven't bricked it yet. How to reboot to bootloader or twrp? Did you ever get magisk to work

Just use flashtool and replace recovery.img with twrp ones. And for rebooting to recovery I was using Mtkdroidtools,

rooting verizon version of asus zenfone AR

I just recently upgraded my phone to the new zenfone AR through verizon. Previously i had a rooted HTC one m9 which gave me some trouble with rooting but some people on here ended up helping me get it very easily therefore i was wondering if anyone has found a way to gain root access to the verizon modle of the zenfone AR. i have gotten it into recovery mode but it wont let me flash anything from there. any information that could help would be greatly appricated. thanks in advance

There is bootloader unlock app on asus oficial site (but search for model ZS571KL) but do not know anything about root.
You try and tell us

Unfortantly I have tried the bootloader unlock tool on the Asus website, but because I have the zenfone AR through Verizon it does not work. Any ideas on how I may go about making that work on the Verizon version? Also I have not found a firmware for the Verizon one anywhere I've tried extracting it from my phone when I got the update to no avail. If anyone has any ideas on how to get any of these things working it would be greatly appreciated because then I can start working on a twrp for it as well.

I think you're out of luck, mate.
Root is easy here with the non-Verizon using Magisk to patch the boot image. But, bootloader.
I'll try and see if I can find that Verizon update online.
Here's a wild idea but have you tried intercepting the update instead of extracting it (judging how it would probably be put into /data). i.e. MitM.
It'll be nice to have the Verizon users free to get some development on this phone.
Good luck. Cheers.

connect phone, choose USB connection type - System Update/Repair
install software upgrade assistant
Run it and choose repair - it will download current version of firnware
or
Run it and choose update - it will download update, if available
download folder will be C:\Users\YOUR_USER_NAME\AppData\Roaming\VerizonSUAAsus\firmware\ASUS_A002A
But file in a RAW format, not sure how conver to some kind of flashable or how to flash???

maybe you need update to newer firmware
look here, https://www.asus.com/zentalk/thread-186959-1-1.html

I actually had not thought of doing a mitm to intercept it next time an update comes out I can try that. I'm going to try the software assistant one later today when I get home and see if I can for an update or something. Thank you guys very much for the ideas I'll let you know if I get anything.

According with your model - you may try to download "4 files firmware repair" and flash with Odin. - this is an example, search for you model!!!
You may try Smart Switch for PC - it's a Samsung program which will help you restore the last original stock firmware according with your phone S/N (located under the battery).
Hoping that there is no emmc failure...

When I download this 4 files I flash one by one tru Odin or all files put together in odin?
My model is sm-n910t, tmobile, can I downlaod and flash other sm-n910f clean, without provider?

Mate, I don't advise to flash the 910F model, as it may break some features which are dedicated to your 910T model. SO better try the 910T repair files. Ans yes, all of them in the same time - your check the boxes in Odin and the phone will be flashed one after the other. Odin knows the order.
BUT!!! As I said before - try first with Smart Switch - https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70652492&postcount=10
I believe you have more chances to get it done this way faster and cleaner.
Also (disclaimer) - as you will do all this on your risk, please search and read a lot before.

I download and flash through Odin latest firmware that i found, security update is from 1 july 2017..
Than I try to install TWRP
I also try to root with CF auto root
And after all this its the same,nothing of this not solve the problem..
I have bad and old Pc, and computer wont install and open Smart Switch.
First thing when I found better PC is that I will try with Smart Switch and if that not help me the last option is to flash that 4 files that you give me link..
