Your not bricked at all if you can see the Samsung GT-N7000 plus the yellow triangle, someone who knows what to do next may be able to help.
I think you should wait before you do anything else.

[Q] Help! Screen went Black after TWRP reboot

Help! I tried to upgrade to lollipop 5.1 based on a youtube (no links allowed) video through TWRP. After the "Success!" message it prompt me to to press NO or OK, so I touched OK exactly like it said in the video. After this, my screen turned black and it wouldn't boot again. I tried everything! Putting the battery out and in place again, pressing vol. up, start and menu button. Nothing. Vol. down, start and menu, still nothing. I tried to do the same three buttons thing with my phone plugged in and the ODIN program running on my PC. A Glorious Nothing! Keep in mind that my battery was about 50% charged at the time. So, what did I miss?
Please help me! Is my Cellphone bricked for good?
I am using a samsung Galaxy SIII Neo:
Thanks in advance :confused

May be that rom wasn't compatible with neo. I think you have bricked your mobile. Search on google or xda forum "how to un brick s3 neo". And after neo should mention your model number.

Well, I'm pretty sure I used the right rom for my i9301 model. I checked the descriptions carefully. I googled for an answer and it says that I need to have specific tools or a micro usb with less pins or an island in Aigaion Pelagos. I don't know... It's way too difficult for me. I guess that's what you end up with, if you play with fire. Another brick in the wall... But, thank you anyway! Any other suggestions are welcome. I just can't afford a new mobile (How does an old T310 Sony Ericsson sound? Perfect battery life for starters!).

You can un brick your mobile. No special usb cable needed. You can use that cable came with your mobile. I never used sony or siny Ericsson so i can't make a suggestion.

Thanks, but go where? I can't see any links. Maybe you are referring to the the method where you use odin and the original firmware to roll back to the original state? I tried it but with no luck.
The truth is I am not exactly sure if I use the right files! I have the i9301 version that originally came with 4.4.2 kitkat installed. I use Vodafon Gr as a provider (but the phone is from Romania). So, I used this file
I9300IXXUAND1 firmware version for Galaxy S3 Neo (GT-I9300I) from region LYS. Was it the right one? I found this method from forum.gsmhosting and said it was about Samsung Galaxy S3 Neo GT-I9300I Dead Boot Repair..
I'm on the black here...:cyclops:

NO for me
Sooo, I tried every step on the guide, realllly carefully, but NO for me.
I bought a 16 GB 10 class Transcent SD card, formatted it with Panasonic SD formatter (tried with the windows genuine formatter too), tried both FAT32 and NTFS method. Next, I wrote the debrick (128 MB) image (dnld from the link especially for i9301). So, ejected it, put it in the sd card slot, placed the battery and did the three button trick (down vol, power, menu). Pitch black! Tried it many times with no results. What do I do wrong? Everybody else manages to fix it in the end, but I can't. Maybe the problem with mine is something else! But I explained in the first post how it all started. Now I am lost in space!
Is my phone Hard Bricked? Fully Dead? Maybe the guide you posted was for Soft Bricked phones. What did the pal meant to say with this?
"But first please make sure that its Hard Barick (fully dead mean not turning on or nothing works except when u connect to pc it will show qualcomm)"

That means mobile is just dead. No LCD light no charging and no life at all just like yours. I think your mobile is totally dead dude. Otherwise it should be alive.

Guess what! It worked in the morning! So, the mobile needs a nice sleep too! So, everything is okay now. Though, my initial purpose was to install Lollipop 5.1.1 (after rooting, of course) and I was bricked in the middle of the operation.
Now, given that I 'm an insistent, dumb headed POI, I would like to try again, the right way. I would use the same guide, but I don't know what went wrong in the first place. I guess, I 'd have to repeat the same procedure again, if something went wrong but, I don't know... I know that I 'd have probably tired you but, could you propose a method to do so?
Lastly, I want to thank you from the depths of my heart for your patience and your guidance through these days. You 've been truly helpful! :good:

Oh, are you saying that your mobile is alive now? And please don't mention that "help" thing. We are here to help each other. Once i was a new also and i learned so many things here. So, i am just sharing what i have gained from here.
Some times it happens, a little mistake could lead you to a big sorrow. If your mobile is alive now , i am happy for you. And if it is not then i am suggesting you to take it to any repairing shop. May be they can do something about it. And if you still don't get results then keep it with you, it's hardware wouldn't be a waste.

First Charge your battery , your device wont be able to charge it but you have to charge using another A5 or any other way and then you have to try again to enter download mode. without battery you cannot do anything.

Thank you for all..
Hi! I think they can't verify if you have root your phone because the phone won't turn on, they don't have access to Download Mode to see if KNOX is triggered. So, Just send your phone to Samsung and wait... :fingercrossed: I think your motherboard is died.
Also, you may try to press the power button for 15 seconds at least

Normally, it's not good to downgrade your firmware. iPhone is different
I think you should send your phone to Samsung and they'll replace it. Don't Worry

Has anyone yet an idea how to avoid it (execpt not downgrading or custom recovery) ... seems to have something to do with bootloaders
when you downgrade lollipop from kitkat you must need factory reset in recovery mode.

Thanks for the suggestion. I have seen videos for galaxy s4 and s3 but can't find one for our a5.
Bro, you need to run commands in terminal emulator. Google it, you will find it.

This is scary... Is it possible that rooting might have had an impact on the motherboard? I'm asking this because I casually test different roms and kernels and tweaks once a few days and I don't want my device to have your fate...

Extremely unlikely rooting or any kind of software modification could cause hardware to fail.
It's purely a coincidence.

Alright! So far I have been flashing things in a day more than any normal human would need : ))))
But that problem was at the time when i had stock rom not rooted. I am currently running a rooted j5 5.1.1 not upgraded to 6.0.1 and it is working perfectly fine. I also have changed the stock boot animation but nothing lags. No errors. All Ok !
