[Q] Samsung Galaxy note GT N7000 not booting

Hello every one on this forum, I need your help regarding my Samsung Galaxy note GT N7000, I woke up yesterday to find out that my phone need some update and i press ok and I went to the bathroom to get ready for work and by the time i came back my phone as stop working completely and I tried to reboot it but to no avail, I need your help pls.
Thanks

were you on gingerbread and what about root? any custom rom? can you still get into recovery? Or did you have clockwork mod? i wonder if it was upgrading to ICS and your phone died? Just some things that might help narrow down a bit.

Galaxy Note not booting after firmware update
Hi,
The same thing happened to me today. My phone indicated that an update was required. When I proceeded to install, the phone is stuck at the SAMSUNG logo.
My phone is not rooted. About a few weeks ago I had upgraded from GB to ICS.
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Facing the same problem
Hi all,
I am facing the same problem since this morning. I have not rooted my phone. Recently I upgraded my Galaxy Note from Gingerbread to ICS 4.0.3. This morning, I upgraded the firmware, as I had done this in the past as well, I didn't think it may lead to any problem. But since then, the phone starts and shows Samsung prompt. Is it because of any bug in the latest update? Does anyone know what to do in this situation?

I am facing the same problem, the Samsung logo keeps glowing off and on after the boot chime plays.
Does any one have any clue about this? I think its happening to India users who got this update.
Edit: I am unable to go into the recovery screen as well. The green droid shows, some loading happens(tries to?) in the bar below and the screen turns off and if I keep holding the buttons the same cycle repeats. Leaving them at any point leads to the Samsung glowing logo and no boot!

Another one bites the dust
Faced the same problem yesterday...running around to get my contactsrescued...even the authorized service centres are only assuring flashing it -0 as if it is a big obligation

If anyone can help - kindly upload post

Found the solution!!!
Hi Guys, I've found the solution.
Edit: Since, I received queries from many people, I would like to know from the advanced/experienced members if the solution I am suggesting is absolutely right or not, and if it could lead to any problem. My phone is working fine, I haven't lost any data.
The solution:
1. Download the stable ICS version released in May.
2. Install it manually using the ODIN settings.
Guys, please help us out, let us know your opinion.

[Q] Freez Device After ICS update

hi guys
last week i update my P.6200 to Malaysia ICS rom with mobile ODIN
now sometimes my device freez & i have to hold the power botton to reset it
can anyone help me
Is there any way to root Android 4 P.6200
thanks

My wife's tab did the same thing after the update. Mine never had the problem. After trying a few different settings things, we decided just to get a replacement tab (still within 30 days of purchasing it). The replacement doesn't have the problem. Some suggested a hard reset - maybe try that as a first resort? If that doesn't work, you may need to get a replacement tab (if still under warranty).

I've had the same problem. Thought it may have been related to me bringing my Tab back from the dead (Brick-bug) but doesn't seem to be.
Everything is perfect on any honeycomb firmware but as soon as I upgrade to any recent ICS I get random freezes. Have tried the latest Russian, Malaysian and Thailand firmware and they all freeze.
Have found the original Austrian 4.0.4 release is fine though. No freezes and pretty smooth, so am sticking with that. There may be more recent builds that may be smoother and better battery but they all seem to freeze.
Give the Austrian a try and see how you go :good:

[Q] Reinstalled stock rom, can't get upgrades

Hi, I'm sorry if this has been asked before, basically a few weeks ago I was having problems with my Tab 2 p3110, it just wasn't running right. At around the same time I ordered an EZCAST hdmi device for my tv.
Well, I used Odin and cwm and taught myself how to upgrade to kitkat withCM11 nightlies, great stuff, fixed the issues I was having.
Then my tv dongle arrived, the one feature I wanted to use more than anything was screen mirror/AirPlay. No you can imagine my dismay when I couldn't even find the option in cm11, I found cast screen but it wouldn't work.
So, having tried several nightlies hoping the problem would be fixed I settled on reinstalling the stock 4.2.2 rom following the instructions on here. It bricked my tab 2 but I managed to get it going again and reinstalled the stock rom after several days of trying.
All this to find the screen mirror option was not available on the stock rom!! I can't figure out why but thought, maybe, an upgrade was needed, so I headed to the update tab to be told that my device was modified, updates are not available!
To be honest I'm ready to throw it in the lake behind my house I'm that frustrated, does anyone have any suggestions on getting screen mirroring working?

Here... get the clean firmware here. It will give a pure system that won't trip the modification check.
It will also give you the factory recovery system.
Look up the p311x PIT file and when in odin pick the size that matches your tablet.
If it hangs at boot try doing a factory reset from recovery.
That's what worked for me to allow me to check updates.
I can't say that this will fix screen mirror, since I've never used it or seen the option on my p3113

Thanks again for your help

Didn't work, still saying that the device has been modified and in download mode shows "count 1"
Any other ideas?

Triangle away?

Hey, I use my tablet with the Samsung Smart View ap.
You must have the right samsung tv for it to work and it's not perfect, but it is a nice feature. I stopped updating my tab because this is the most important feature for me.
I rooted my device and have the same issue as you, that's how I came across this thread.

[HELP] Installed OTA and now WiFi won't turn on!

Latest OTA killed my WiFi. I dont have the receipt anymore and I might be screwed even though I only bought this tablet less than 3 weeks ago. Is there anyway to revert back to an earlier build. I'll do anything. Im not rooted or unlocked. Any help to fix this and I will donate to u I promise.

It looks like they are aware of the issue so I would wait a few days before freaking out. You can always push an update from your pc or SD card if it comes to it. My gf has the k1 and hers just has an update tonight that said it was fixing wifi issues. When did you install this update? What version was it?

You should be able to get the receipt reprinted at the store you got it from if you used a credit or debit card. Worse comes to worse I'm pretty sure Nvidia would be able to tell how old the unit is.

Im gonna go back to the store I bought it at tomorrow. I used my debit card so hopefully that will work. Thanks.

I just exchanged my K1 for a new one. Staying on 5.1.1 for a while. **** you Nvidia!
Mods please close

I took the OTA last night and had the WiFi problem. I was able to fix it by re-flashing the staging blob (source) and rebooting.
Incidentally, I switched to Bliss 6 and had the exact same issue, and solved it the exact same way. My guess is that the OTA didn't correctly patch the blob, but after all the work I have done today to try and get myself a working tablet who knows whether that was the root problem or not.

Can I ask how you re-flashed this .img, I have had no wifi for 2 days now and am starting to get impatient waiting for a fix. Any help is appreciated, thanks!

I downloaded the file I linked to above, rebooted the tablet into the bootloader, and flashed it with fastboot (`fastboot flash staging blob.img`). There are plenty of tutorials already explaining how to boot into your bootloader and install adb/fastboot on your computer to accomplish this, so I won't fill up the Internet by duplicating it here.

Thanks! ya I'm familiar with the process, I decided to flash factory .img and back and running now

is it working for K1 tablet or original because my k1 have the same problem

I've had the same problem on my K1. (wifi)
A factory reset (launched by the android menu, not from bootloader) solved the problem.
It's long but it's normal.
Of course I had to set everything back, but my tablet was stock so I lost nothing.
Now it's rooted and everything is fine.

Toked, same issue. Was able to work around issue by turning on one of the options in developer mode. Turn on "use legacy dhcp client". Wifi back. Hopefully a permanent fix soon

Not meaning to necropost here, but turned on my shield after a long while off and had this same issue, changing to "use legacy dhcp client" worked! Thanks!

How to fix wifi
Step 1: Turn the Shield tablet off
Step 2: Remove SD card
Step 3: Turn tablet back on
WiFi should now be working
Step 4: Reinsert SD card.

If you think there may have been an issue with the OTA then see if that same kit kat update is available in an stock .tar then flash that with Odin. You may have to boot to stock recovery and factory reset and wipe cache if the device bootloops after flashing with Odin. That should fix any software issues on your device.

I already did that but nothing improved so I am thinking going back to Jelly Bean...
