This is what happened....
I was on stock Rom and as time went by it started slowing down on me. Ive never rooted this phone and decided to factory reset the phone. So when i did, the hard reset..... as it went to the Samsung logo the phone shutoff, after right away went directly into download mode. i freaked out and pulled the battery. Then i put the battery back in and it wouldn't boot. So I'm guessing its bricked cause it shows no sign of life at all .
I was looking up "how to unbrick a Galaxy note 4" and unfortunately unbrick methods dont exists. I even called up my local Jtag service and He said nothing can be done except sell him the phone for 100 bucks for parts (Which i refuse to believe) .
After reading around for an entire day i came across
Part 1 : http://www.androidbrick.com/ultimate-qualcomm-snapdragon-unbrick-guide-snapdragons-are-unbrickable/
Part 2: http://www.androidbrick.com/unbrick...-you-have-the-right-kind-of-rom-qhsusb_dload/
Ok, so i figured some things out thanks to Android brick ! .
In-order to unbrick all Galaxy Note 4's which run on Snapdragons 805 is to access Qualcomm's Service Port Via [QHSUSB_BULK] ---> [qualcomm hs-usb qdloader 9008]
Now we can use MiFlash 2012 To Unbrick our Snapdragon 805s from a "Hard Brick".
So their are 5 things we need to unbrick all galaxy note 4's:
-MPRG8084.hex <-------------- Main
-8084_msimage.mbn <-------------- Main
-rawprogram_32GB.xml
-patch0.xml
-Settings.xml
If we can find these, we just found the ultimate unbrick solution for all Snapdragons 805 phones.
And after i found all that stuff so complicated, i would like to try this except the note 4 version:

What is Hard Brick?
Hard brick is the state of android device that occurs when your device won’t boot/respond/charge at all. This is mainly caused by flashing corrupted firmware, damaged bootloader, incomplete flashing in Odin/Download mode, or interrupted OTA upgrade. You can't recover from hard brick by traditional methods since your phone is ~dead & you can't enter any Recovery or Download Modes; You'll need to use JTAG (expensive service), USB JIG (cheap, but no gurantee), or this free guide/files to get it repaired.
What do you need?
- Hard Bricked Device: Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (N910W8)
- Micro SD Card: 4/8/16/32 GB micro SD card
- Unbrick Image: working dump with the same bootloader/version
- Image Writer: native commands on Linux/MacOSx or Win32 Disk Imager on Windows
How to recover?
1- Download Unbrick Image for your bootloader from here
2- If you're using Windows, download Win32 Disk Imager
3- Backup all files in the micro SD card you 'll use
4- Write the Unbrick Image to your micro SD card using Win32 Disk Imager or Linux/MacOSX commands
5- Remove battery, Insert micro SD card & then the battery
6- Hold Power + Home + Volume Down to enter Download Mode by bootloader on SD card
7- Flash Stock firmware via Odin & Enjoy
Downloads:
All files you may need are available in this folder
-So if some one can create a "you need to create your own Unbrick Image since I can't share it for the device-specific bootloader. Just run this Unbrick Image Creator in recovery & it'll create "/sdcard/Unbrick_Files" in your internal SD card." for me, id love to try it and see if it works.
I was running Android 5.1.1 With Rogers before it went down and wonder if someone can run the unbrick image creator and create an unbrick file for the rest of the Canadian Galaxy Note 4s.:good::[/QUOTE]

I just got the phone back from them and they couldn't do nothing at all & plus my phone isn't under warranty anymore.
I might just have to wait till a fix does come out.

they didnt even offer you to change some of the hardwares? the samsung service center near me will try to fix it and then if they are not able to fix it thru software then they will try to change the motherboard or battery it depends on what they think the problem is, next time dont just pull the battery especially when its trying to complete something.
I actually managed to get that unbrick thing working. My note 4 bricked just like yours. MMC Read failed constantly. Freezing and reboots. Until one day it just stopped turning on and would not go into download mode. I managed to get the note 4 file somewhere (I forgot where) and put it onto an external SD card and managed to get the phone into download mode. The phone still has the mmc read fail error at times and freezes and reboots. Still dont know what to do about that.

Lucky you! Hey, at least you have something to use.
Oh and Just hook it up to Samsung Kies or Odin and do a full factory reset, that should get rid of any bugs.

They didn't offer, maybe they didn't want to do the hard work.
Plus they even charged me for a "Diagnostic Fee"

well the samsung service centers usually replace your phone.... for me it's a bad thing you lose a lot of data and you get criticised for rooting and they usually take longer to fix your device and the price is very expensive if not insured :/ but well they get the job done

good thing in here they didnt care if your rooted or not, or what you do to your phone before the problem exist, they just take your phone and fix it, the only thing they ask you is if its under warranty and if its okay to wipe the phone

Yea, i tried to look for the files.
Seems like theirs nothing at this moment for the snapdragons 805, but phones running on snapdragon 801 and 800s can be fully un-bricked from a "hardbrick"
atleast we all have a solid idea how to fix this issue thanks to AndriodBrick.
for now, what you could do is buy a new motherboard or go to a Samsung repair center and when the developers release a fix, just fix the bricked motherboard and sell it. :good:

Yea, for the unbirck img, not sure where to find the proper boot loader on stock ROM.
So 2nd method from the top post not worked or why it's stroked out? Or it needed special unbreak image that we haven't and it can be done with unbrick image creator?
So if I'm reading the op correctly then you just need someone with a working canadian note4 to run the unbrick image creator in recovery to make the needed unbrick file? Then this file can be flashed on non-working phones to unbrick them?
And I'm assuming working phone needs to be rooted with custom recovery?

Is there an Unbrick yet?
Hi,
I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 4 N910F.
Suddenly, literally out of nothing it died.
No reaction when trying to power it on, no reaction when trying to charge it. nothing, literally NOTHING. (Also tried different chargers, sockets, cables, and 2 different batteries)
I did NOT root the phone, i did not use cheap chargers, everything was/is stock.
When i connect my Note 4 to my laptop, and go to device manager, it finds: QHSUSB_BULK
I dont know if it is bricked because i didnt do anything weird with the phone.
QUESTION 1: IF MY LAPTOP FINDS THE NOTE 4 AS "QHSUSB_BULK", IS IT NECCESSARILY BRICKED?
QUESTION 2: IF IT IS BRICKED, IS THERE A UNBRICK YET?
QUESTION 3: IF THERE IS NO BRICK, WILL A MOTHERBOARD REPLACEMENT DO THE JOB?
So this unbricking works only for Canadian phones? Am I saved?
I would love to hear the news. Because I think mine just got bricked today. And it is a Canadian version.
