[Q] Soft Bricked Help - Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So my phone keeps rebooting completely without turning on after flashing a new ROM. Is there a way to fix this? Because it's not booting into recovery or download mode.

hold power button+menu button+volume down (vo

release your battery, plug your device to pc without battery, as fast as you can hold power button+menu button
connect your phone via usb to the computer by holding down the volume + button until you see the yellow screen of the emergency mode
i think its actually vol - and plug the usb cable,you can try this if above didnt work

Reflash 4.4.2 - takes a couple of attempts sometimes. - Also don't flash any custom kernels cause they are not set up to run with KK's new BL yet

Did you manage to root? Do you mean you re-attempted to root 10-15 times?

For me on Verizon Note 3 this worked, but the button combo is different. It's the same as ODIN/Download mode:
Hold Vol down, Power, and Home... then Cancel ODIN/Download mode using Vol Down.
I had this same problem where I'd got myself in a "recovery" bootloop from Baja KK ROM... I had a custom power menu that allowed you to choose recovery as a boot option as opposed to selecting it at startup (I know, so hard). I would have the Galaxy Note 3 "Custom" screen then say Recovery mode in the upper left corner in blue, then reboot, etc... Anyway this seems to set it back to normal boot mode.

Download mode is volume down+home button+power button
Recovery is by pressing the volume up+home button +power button till the logo appears and then leave the combo and within a fraction of a second press the volume up+centre button (not the power button now)
Rest if your phone is actually not going in the download mode how in this world did you reinstall the stock firmware?

I follow your instruction on how to go to recovery and I successfully do it. Done factory reset and wipe cache but still it stuck on samsung logo/boot animation.
I can go to download mode and completely reinstall stock firmware but still the same.
Try doing a factory reset and reboot, when rebooting remove the battery and put it back,
Now go to download mode and flash the stock firmware

Phone stuck at bootloader exception

Hello, for some reason my phone got stuck in the bootloader exception. I know I could potentially fix this through odin but I have quite the problem. I use a chromebook! Also Odin is a windows app so I was wondering if there are any other options for me to try to fix my phone?
trying to get into recovery mode/download mode fails as well. Only thing I could do is turn it off briefly (volume down + menu + power) then it goes back into bootloader.
Cant send it in back cause I bought it from a different country. (will visit that country soon but I need to get this phone working for travel/communication purposes)
Are you sure you can't get into Download mode?
I had this problem and it was hard to fix, but after holding -Vol, Home, and Power, after about 8 reboots it worked and I fixed it with odin.
Hold, keep holding these buttons until Download Mode appears.

Power/home/volume up is the combination for recovery, not download. Try again with volume down.

tried that as well, always goes back to bootloader
edit: do i have to plug in my phone first with odin? or it should go to download mode without odin yet?
