Soft bricked and clueless please someone!

Hey i've soft bricked my n7000..
basically i just need to know what exactly to do now, kernels etc
ideally id like to be running Midnote 3.3
anyone kind enough to reply with help would be seriously appreciated!

Maybe if you gave some more information on what how when and why ?
Nobody can help you on a 'hey i lost my car can someone tell me where on this planet i parked this morning?'

Agree on above poster. We need to know what rom uou were flashing from, by what method, and the issue now.

Fair enough was thinking there was a straight forward fix, as in just flash this and do this etc..
i was running Midnote 2.1, i was on LP1 and tried to flash Midnote 3.3 using CWM.. it wasn't flashing as i couldn't see the .zip rom at all..
i then done a few factory wipes and basically just wiped the davlik and cache and tried any options in CWM

The issue now is that when i boot im stuck at the samsung splash screen..
I can boot into recovery and into cwm..

And what exactly happends now ?
dead black screen ?
Samsung logo blocked ?
PC odin doesn't connect ?
Can you enter CWM recovery ?
Can you enter boot recovery ?
I think you better try and flash a safe GB kernel and rom first
Then do a full wipe, then flash whatever you like.
You can best flash through PC odin for the stock GB

Stuck at Samsung logo
Can enter CWM and recovery, odin works as far as i can tell

I would suggest trying to flash a stock gb rom via pc odin. If you get stuck at the factory.fs stage you may well be superbricked because of the cwm recoveries and wipes on lpy.
There are a few threads on sorting out a problematic emmc section. But we'll get to that afyer youve tried this.

Thank you, I don't mean to be an effort but you hardly know where I can get a safe GB kernel and rom? i just want to be sure as im getting kind of worried now

Check out dr ketans thread in the stickies of d3velopment section. Theres loaf of info there. Its pretty straight forward if you flash initially to an older rom for your region. Take a look itll make sense promise.

Doesn't really matter, go ahead and choose what you like.

Lads i seriously appreciate this.. if i get my note back up n running i'll be delighted!

No, you just place the .tar file in Odin in the PDA section.

nope you dont need a kernel when flashing stock GB rom
but 1st keep ur fingers crossed and pray that you get through the ODIN installation method
copy the GB rom file in ODIN folder and open ODIN and click on PDA and select the downloaded GB ROM file and press START

You legends! the stock gb rom worked perfect...
now comes the slightly trickier part.. loading the Midnote 3.3 rom
anyone using this rom? 2.1 was great!
whats the safest way to flash this, kernel wise etc?
thanks again lads

also, now that im back on the stock gb rom.. do i need to root again????
i tried getting into cwm and it brought me into android recovery mode ( still had install zip from sd option)

Yes, you will need to root it if you didn't flash a GB pre-rooted ROM.
And I think the CWM.zip file is on drketan's thread.

Guys im running midnote rom fine BUT it keeps vibrating every 5-8 seconds........................
EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING.. any ideas!???

[Q] about omega rom v16

thanks guys
pls help me guys i dont know what to do i know how to flash rom but suddenly it messed up my phone and still stuck at boot logo

Every day I personally lose confidence in roms here
Not talking about a certain rom and creator - to emphasize this
Talk about creators who have in their hands a model - for example I9500
but make rum for I9505
Clearly easier replacing certain files etc. but how the ease with which it share with so many people after you have not personally tested your phone
Once again this is a personal opinion I respect the work of any developer but not so

Are you sure the bootloader flashed?
Because you didn't say about flashing a KK Recovery. As the JB ones dont work on the new bootloader

Just try a data factory reset after you flashed a custom rom next time, that should fix the boot issue.

Have you tried clearing the caches after the flash? Did you do a full wipe before flashing the rom? Flashed the correct rom for the N9005?

Oh woow... I tried a custom kernel to see if that did the job and a custom kernel fixed it, thanks for the help tho :victory:
The fix:
Download the kernel from here and flash it, http://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=12055
Currently using this 1, CivZ-SnapKat-Rev3.1-sm_n9005-4.4.2.zip

I think my phone is broken. Please Read.

Hey,
I made a thread the other day about getting a good ROM because the others seem to die after 3 days. Does anyone have an idea of why this happens? I have tried 6 different ROMS in 4 days and they all the do the same thing; Apps won't open, phone constantly on boot logo, apps crash, phone freezes up, phone won't boot up.
The phone is around 4 weeks old with minimal wear.
I would appreciate all feedback.

That's my problem. When I did flash a custom ROM, they all froze, crashed, non responsive etc etc. So this has made me not want to flash a custom ROM, but I want to because of all the perks that come with flashing /:

You have maybe to update bootloader or modem or recovery before flashing. .
Give some details about your actual configuration and the rom you flash...

I had CWM 6.0.4.7 flashed and I tried Gooh S5+N4 ROM, S5 stock by Jamal, XNote, Omega and N9005 Dev Base (RC tea I think) and a couple others. When flashing, I did all the normal step, wiping cache, wiping data, dalvik when told and leaving the phone for 10 minutes after it boots.
Do you want any information about the actual phone?

You have N9005 international? ???you have flashed stock KK one time???your bootloader and modem version....
You have to factory reset during flash.......

1. Reflash the stock ROM.
2. Root with CF Auto Root.
3. Flash this custom recovery: TWRP (better than CWM).
4. You can remove the bloatware (HERE) and enjoy the stock ROM.

Sorry but I don't like the custom Roms. It's coz they are constantly updating and fixing things, no coz they are bad. Every device don't answer in same way with same ROM either. It's only my opinion . Last choice is always yours.

With CloudyRom you picked out the best stock based rom you can find. I'm running this rom with dorimanx kernel and its incredible stable and the battery live is stunning. If possible stick with it. It has tons of improvements.

Dude with all respect but there are indexed threads with how to.

CloudyRom is the best Rom i've tested. And yes, it works perfectly with Dorimanx Kernel. With it you have control over nearly everything. You can enhance the sound, improve battery live and enable a speed charge function. Just try it a couple of days and you will never go back to LGs standard rom.

Well i have the problem when i have installed Kernel my phoone boots to TWRP ? why is that ?

Ok i wiped All expect SD card in TWRP.. Installed KK bootloader Installed Kernel Then Installed cloudy 3.3 and my phone Works ok buy how can i know what kernel do i use ? do i use dorimanx ? is that the right way to install it or no ?

I have checked my Kernel it's 3.4.0 I cant install dorimanx Kernel i dont know why... When i Go to TWRP and install it My phone boots in TWRP :S :/

I don't know what method you used. Kernel installation is allways connected to TWRP. When you install Dorimanx over Dorimanx OTA App it will download the newest kernel then boot to TWRP and flash the new kernel. The it reboots the system. If you're "stuck" in TWRP hit reboot button and tap on reboot system.
If it doesn't boot correctly you have to do a clean flash. First download Blastagators TWRP from here
http://www.gregtwallace.com/lgg2-projects/twrp/
and flash it inside TWRP. Reboot TWRP (reboot recovery).
Put CloudyRom.zip on your phones download folder or an OTG-USB-drive. Wipe everything (don't be scared, internal memory will not be erased). Flash CloudyRom and wipe again. Then reboot. After boot install Dorimanx OTA App from playstore and follow the instructions. It will flash dorimanx Kernel automatically. Now everything should work.
I hope this is helpfull.
