Quick FYI and correction -
Hard Brick = Won't power on or do anything.
Soft Brick = Can still access the device - bootloop/power up/bootloader/recovery.

Did You ever tried a full wipe several times before and after flashing?

Post some more information.
1. Where did you buy the phone
2. PDA/CSC/Baseband
3. IMEI still displayed as a number or is it null/null
4. Do you have EFS, FSC, and FSG backups
5. Which stock rom(s) did you flash
It sounds to me as though you have been flashing the wrong stock rom for your device. The behaviour you describe sits in line with that.

i bought it From official Samsung Shop, and it was running like normal before this problem.
IMEI is ok, not showing null or anything like that.

didnt help

Okey you need to get EFSBackupPro and use it to backup efs and fsc and fsg partitions. Just Google it and you will find a link to the thread here on xda.
After that you need to tell us what is the phone model. Look at my signature to see what a model looks like.
I think you flashed the wrong stock ROM. We need to find out which model phone you have so we can link you to the correct n9005 stock ROM.
You must make efs backup first. You can lose your imei and I have not seen a working method to fix the phone if that happens.

Efsbackuppro has bricked Note 3's previously. I wouldn't advise it.

Not sure about what happened in those case. It is quite literally a GUI that runs a few dd commands, that's it.

I have the exact same problem and I think it's a hardware problem. This was happening to me yesterday and is not related to software. I think it's the sound IC or dac.

After flashing stock rom, do FULL WIPE using recovery.
You did not mention doing it.

I did this and no change. As I mentioned I don't think this is a software problem. I did remove cameras and usb charging port even the upper hedfone port and is the same behaviour. One of the iC is malfunction . I did stop everything that is related to sound and I use now my phone as a tablet with no sound and recording capabilities.

After I was looking over schematic of motherboard and online for similar hardware defect I think is the audio codec IC WCD9320 that need to be re-balled or replaced. On the MB it has the the code U707. I will try this tommorow.

CHECK
I did not seen any Note 3 with full sound hardware bullit , but I faced to not have sound when I flashed a different firmware and I tryed t update trough ODIN to the last firmware nf3 nf4 TRY THAT AND put your news here , DON'T TRY TO OPEN YOUR PHABLET DOES NOT HAVE PRB AND ALSO SAMSUNG INFO app from play... you will se your hardware is ok and also your sound codecs )::)) ODIN 3.07 is the most stable >LAST FIRMWARE (UPGRADE) PROBABLY TO TRY INSERT YOUR CSC AND PIT Country files ( AREA CODE for example XEO mine )

I did reheat al the components on the main board. Nothing happened. But... i did reflash (as a last try)with mobile odin the last build from south est of Europe and miracle happened is up and working well.

[HELP] its Urgent,Important,why no one cansolve it??????

PLZ help me on this guys , im going mad on this
HOW TO SOLVE THE " DM-VERITY VERIFICATION FAILED NEED TO CHECK DRK FIRST " or when i install a stock rom this one first appears bUt not in reCovery " DEVICE DOESNT HAVE DRK , INSTALL DRK " ????????
it all happened after i deleted my imei then succesfully restored it with backup when downgrading from that god forsaken CM13 made by raymanFX (it was build 8 i think) , now OTAs and Security patches all face this issue in recovery when installing after being downloaded , now im in middle of nowwhere with no backup and ive tried everything but none works and im not a hacker nor an information thief just a member waiting for HELP... (SM-N910H)
:crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:
! THERE IS NO OFFICIAL SAM CUSTOMER SERVICE IN MY CITY AND mobile merchants are not TRUSTWORTHY !

Someone told me that i need to find a cert file for my Phone and i found it , how is it related to DRK and what should i do with it??

Whatever happens to the phone, if the phone turns on, doesnt have any hardware issue it can be revived.
The universal method is flashing stock firmware through odin
Download your country's note 4 firmware from sammobile and flash it through odin
Works most of the time
For any more help pm m!

yeah. try flashing samsung stock firmware with odin. have you done it

The same occurred for my LG G3 D855 which has erased its IMEI just for trying 'restore upgrade errors' in the LG mobile support tool. From that onwards I have firmly decided not to flash manually in any way except when official upgrades / uupdates are released via KIES or via OTA update.
Please do not flash by your own as it is always risky. It is not a PC where you can take out the affected hard disk and fix it in a working PC and backup the data.
To all manual flashing persons :
If your phone succeeds in manual flashing, donnot brain wash others to do the same. Not all persons always do R & D in android like you.

Thanks for the reply but the main problem is that any OTA that comes to note 4 i download them and the device says to restart to recovery to install the Update and i say yes but when it goes to recovery the recovery wont function well since it shows dm-verity error and supported API : 3 the update process fails to complete . My imei is as cool as always i havent had a problem with IMEI since i bought the phone

at least 10000 people have note 4 and none has had the problem ???? REALLY ?
seems like im pretty f***ed up

dear chappati , according to that video i need a physical thing which is called a BOX and a software called GC PRO because that guy had my problem and fixed it with a clicking , but im reasearching for 5 months and nothing comes out . i need information PLZ

Hi, i used to had that problem too, when i first flash a custom rom to my N910G i back up my stock rom.. everthing including EFS.. after that then i wipe everything like normal procedure when u flash a rom. till then 1 day i wanna go back to stock rom i accidentally ticked EFS while i wanna restore that stock rom back up and then i thought it was nothing serious until i flash stock rom with odin and when i boot into stock recovery that dm-verity message was shown, did so much research but no luck. my n910G was on a Singapore firmware, that time it had a update i just try my luck by downloading the latest SG firmware and then that message was gone! m now already on MM no problems like that anymore

soft brick n9005

Hi guys, I'm lost, i tried flash almost everything to my freshly bought board from aliexpress but I had only success with "N9005-hlte_PDA-XXUEND6_CSC-OXXEND2_MODEMS-XXUENC2_REPACK.tar.md5" and some others but after locking and unlocking display stays black ( buttons under screen lights up and system seems to work but no visual after unlock - after swipe to unlock. I cant flash any custom rom and only some 4.x official roms. And no, i don't know what firmware was originally on it (stupid me)....
download mode info:

Are you saying you bought a motherboard ??
If so the new motherboard defines the firmware not your old setup .

Yeah i got new, i didn't know there's so many variants of software for phone, my good old note 2 is almost unbrickable. Any suggestions how to get it alive ?

Ok guys, I got some progress, I successfully flashed 5.0 SM-N9005_1_20160121153514_7lzesanh3b_fac tgy coz i think this is hong kong board. Everything works but i have extremely low wifi signal even when I'm standing next to router, gsm networks mostly same bad signal and whats odd, I can see sim signal without sim in phone. Isn't it coz of bad modem ? How should i continue ? Thanks.
edit:
And i still cant flash any custom rom trough twrp, always stuck on writing system partition - sometimes with error 7 and sometimes just endless loop of writing system :/

Try Philz Recovery .

I tried philz - works but cant flash rom, stucked on system, cwm - same, twm - works only some older versions not the lastest one, only sometimes it boots to lastest and cmr - not working. After rooting using supersu zip had some random reboots for some time.

Is my Umi Super dead?

All what i did with the phone:
1. I rooted it successfully
2. I wanted to unroot it because of updates(I am waiting for the release of android n)
3. I flashed the stock firmware(16th June) with sp flash tool but it stopped with an error i dont know anymore
4. I tried to flash the parts of the rom singly but it stopped at system at 23%
5. I read that it would work when i take the battery out
6. I took the battery out and flashed the firmware and it was successfull
7. I put the battery back in but now it wont boot up(No recovery, bootloader)
I read somewhere that i must flash the firmware with pressing volume down button but it didnt work too
Pls help me
is this maybe a hardware issue and if it is: can i fix it?

hi, i don't know exactly what your problem is, but i can tell you that a similar problem was fix it by flashing firmwares by sp!
you can try find it right here in these thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/umi-super-guide-firmwares-roms-kernel-t3396662

Hi.. I have recently rooted my Samsung galaxy note 4 SM-N910F and I am wanting to downgrade from marshmallow 6.0.1 to Lollipop 5.1.1. I really need a dummy guide as I don't know how to do it and help will bbe appreciated

Hey there. Downgrading to an older version of Android means you'll have to factory wipe, but other than that it's pretty straightforward. Seeing as you have already rooted your phone, I assume you know how to use Odin, but here's all the steps anyway:
1. Download Odin
2. Find a Lollipop firmware for your device from SamMobile
3. Back up important data, and factory reset. You can do this in settings or in recovery.
4. Turn off your device, then hold power + vol down + home to put it in download mode
5. Open Odin, and put the firmware file you downloaded in the AP slot
6. Plug your phone in. If it isn't recognized, you probably don't have all the drivers installed - the easiest way to get those is to install Kies or SmartSwitch from Samsung.
7. Click Flash, and wait until it's done. Do not unplug the cable under any circumstance!
You're done!

Did you ask/search in the rom thread?
Maybe someone else had the same problem.
It could be a kernel issue, try other kernel.
I don't use a G but a C version, so I can't test to see.
Also consider the eMMC issue of the 910 SnapDragon, search about this.

Thanks for reply dear
Can i update or change kernel ?right now im on H-vitamin any other kernel can you suggest me is better then H-vitamin?thank for your support
