Samsung galaxy note 4 "Bricked?" - Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello I have a pretty weird issue,
you know when you fail something like rooting your phone and trying to install Lineage os (from this guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/no...-unofficial-lineage-15-1-rom-t3760969/page101) everything went well until i restarted phone.
The product name shows SM-910L but mine is 910F, but that is not the issue, when i try to flash via odin the check goes on and gets stuck at NAND Write Start!!!
I've tried 3.09 and the latest.
There is no progress bar showing on my note nor the odin at all.
Also to mention the device is recognized as CDC composite device and modem.
And to add it shows Phone Triangle and PC saying something in chinese or japanese with kies.

Fixed by installing cwm recovery, boots fine, shows 910F BUT cannot flash still.
ps. Wanna flash new rom or custom cause stock one is bloated.
Update 3: Sticker says 910F, download mode says 910L (Korean version?)

I have a big problem with my note. today i wanted to change rom from imilka's AOSP ICS [IMM76D/4.0.4] to newest version of rocket. after flashing Abbys 4.2 kernel I missclicked to reboot button, after reboot phone got stuck and starting screen "Galaxy Note" I can even enter recovery, but can't do anything because if I try to move up or down then cwm got rebooted. Download mode works also BUT... The main problem is that after that fail with flashing I can't connect to pc. I tried with another cable/another pc/ reinstalled drivers and kies and still pc can't recoginze this device. any solutions? thanks in advance
If while flashing with Odin you receive an error message or got stuck on factoryfs the only thing you can do is to go to Samsung Assistance..

Stuck on Samsung Logo Odin and Wipe done

Hi, I recently became a Galaxy S6 Edge+ as a gift, which is stuck on the Samsung Logo (blinking). I am not new to flashing Firmware and Roms (came from the HTC HD2 and Dell Streak 5), but everything I do, I can not come through this. Now I need your help, since it's my first Samsung device. Maybe I have something forgotten?
My device:
SM-G928F with Regional Code AUT (free Switzerland firmware) --> Also Samsung Smart Switch shows me this AUT Version (but it wont recognize it, shows it after typing in the serial)
What have I done:
Samsung Smart Switch does not recognize it.
The last 24 hours I have downloaded the firmware through SamFirm 4 times, I have flashed the phone via Odin about 8 times, after the flashs I have wiped the cache and resettet data (full wipe) through the recovery. One time, the phone came to the android optimatization, but it was stuck on the last app (was 30 minutes on this), after reboot it was stuck on the Samsung logo.
Now I need your help. What can I do further? Do I missed something? Any ideas?
Something strange I noticed: When the phone is off and I plug it in to the wall, the battery drains. I have to put the phone to Download-Mode to charge it. Is it linked to the firmware problem? The charger is original Samsung.
So, I flashed TWRP, the Note7 Deodexed Rom and SkyHigh kernel, but it's the same... any sugestions?
I read about a pit file, what is that? May be this the solution?
What I did the last 3 houers was to test Smart Switch With the mac version, the rescue function did not work, the hole program crashed each time. On the windows version it suceed, but my phone is showing just the blinking Samsung logo. Every now and then it vibrates, but nothing happens, so I am at the start of the problem again. Any ideas?
Next update: I flashed the original firmware with a pit file 3 minutes ago. I learned a lot, learnt that the pit files are the partition-files. Now I'm hoping, that with the new partitions it will boot properly :good: . Stay tuned!
Still the same issue. Please help me
Whenever I start the Recovery, it says "installing system update" and then there is a dead Android, does this matter?
A 4 part firmware with pit file did not help. I downloaded another Firmware from another source, also the same. Now I will do a downgrade and look, if this helps. Pleeeeease, help me!
Infos from the download mode:
Produkt Name: SM-G928F
CA_Type: CA_3
Current Binary: Samsung Official
System status: Custom
Secure Download: Enabled
Know warrenty void: 1 (0x0203)
RP SWREV: B:3 K:0 S:1
Maybe the TWRP Log helps: There are errors in writing, is there something missing? It is the original firmware, with the newest TWRP and SuperSU installed. Still stuck on Samsung (animated) logo.
Listen do you have windows on ur mac i use parallels
but do you have windows anyhoe

Same here
Hello,
I'm quite new here, but not with flashing.
My son got an S6 Edge plus too, with almost the same problem.
I tried also almost anything, the last few days.
ADB sideload, Odin several versions.
It started out with FRP lock.
After I tried al I could find I think it bricked.
And now it is in the state as described above.
Only first screen and draining the battery if not in download mode.
And when I put it on USB cable it says: "An error has occured while updating the device software. Use the Emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC software."
But Smart Switch doesn't recognise the phone!
I can however get the phone in download mode by pushing vol. down, power and home and then vol up.
But in Odin only works: Pit, CP and CSC.
With AP and BL I get errors and fails.
Please help?
For me AP and BL works with Odin. I am a step furhter now. First I flashed with the option: Erase All Nand. Then I installed TWRP and a made a repair for the System and the Caches partitions. With SuperSU installed, and the caches wiped (manual, dalvik and normal caches), it says "Android is starting, Optimizing Apps" and then "Androis is starting, Starting Apps" on a blue screen and when it loads to the end, it is stuck there.
.You get only the first Samsung S6 Edge+ Screen? Then the system files are missing, there is no OS to start (flashed with AP in Odin). Your flash problem sound quite strange. Did you test another cable?
If you want to do it with Smart Switch, the phone should be in download mode. I also had to try it several times. Did you installed the drivers?
@ KatariaMax: I have Windows and Mac PCs, no Parallels. Does it work with Parallels?
So, one problem less. With the Audax rom and kernel, the phone charges normally (but not with Quickcharge), so I don't have to put the phone to download mode. But here is the same problem, after "starting apps" it is stuck. I will do a log from the install, maybe this helps.
@ HugoGroot: Maybe the second post could be the solution for you: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6/help/s6-bricked-t3497687
I read about Sony devices, which are in a bootloop because of the battery. Could this be possible also for Samsung devices? I have bought a battery, just to be sure. Any other suggestions?

[GT-19500] Stuck In Download Mode

Hello!I need urgent help.I tried to install TWRP on my friend's phone using an app called Rashr.After it is installed it says that I need to reboot my device.So I did that.After rebooting it went straight to Download mode.It just stuck there.I have tried everything,from using odin (It won't detect my friend's phone),to using ADB (It also won't detect my friend's).I really has to fix his phone ASAP.Thanks!
(Note #1: Sorry for my terrible English )
(Note #2:I have used ADB before to fix my phone (Core Prime) when it was stuck in bootloop)
There's no way to get it working without Odin.
So try everything you can find online to make the PC detect the phone.
After that you should try flashing a bootloader (the same one that's already on the phone if possible). I'm almost certain that it will make the phone boot.
And then you can also proceed to flash the recovery with Odin.
And maybe this a silly question, but did you install the Samsung USB drivers?
Download the latest stock ROM from sammobile. Use the original Samsung USB cable and a USB 2.0 to flash the phone.
I like using Odin 3.07 as it has always been very stable for me: https://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&rct=...168421&usg=AFQjCNEdxqAS5QWImOPDJboTA_V3D5S9eA

How to unbrick?

hi, my s7 edge is on the emergency recovery screen after boot, already tried Smart Switch no success..
already tried install a lot of twrp versions by odin, no success either
tried to install some roms for my phone and got some error, the latest error was saying device 5 and binary 1 or 4 sometimes, i guess this is because my phone was at 8.0 and some rom i got is older right?
So, how can i find a rom with binary 5?
My model is SM-G935FD
This binary error says your bootloader has been updated. The only way to solve this is by installing the latest version of stock rom via odin.
Hello all,
I did something similar i add last update with odin but after restart i get error can't update software. I stupidly turn it off and now is in brick mode I mean nothing happent when i press all possible combination. I order JIG but unfortinaetly did work for S7 it works for my other samsungs. I probably will make my own JIG with 400Kom .
I just thinking any other hardware way to start it.
When i connect to PC i hear the sound connect but after couple seconds disconnect.
Any suggestion what else I can try

Thank you for your reply, but I cant flash new fw because my PC dont see phone and phone itself cant go to .proper download mode, only to this fail screen. I have drivers installed and PC and odin sees other galaxy s7 so its probably not driver issue..

If you press power more than 10 sec. and press vol- + home it drops you back to this mode???
yes, EVERY action ends on this screen if I hold power more than 1 sec +-, it just restarting and restarting...
Hey guys, just a fast info:
