[Q] [HELP!!!] Bricked GT-N8000 - Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I'm not new to the forums and I'm not new to bricking devices but I'm new to bricking GT-N8000 and this time i think i lost my efs and did not backup..
what i did wrong simply is i don't know how but i managed to flash 10.1 the TABLET instead of note and it didn't read any signal so when i figured out later what i did i downloaded a rom and tried to install hoping everything will be okay which it didn't.. downloaded a firmware from samfirmware which was one md5 file and since then i'm stuck with the opening window "Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1", so now i figured what i need is to flash EFS img, right now i have installed cwm and custom rom but when it loads it get stuck on Samsung logo.
i also factory reset after that i tried to format the sdcard which is the internal storage, and i think i might have format something called pre-load folder also the cache partition which i suspected due to my limited newbie thinking thought it might help
I'm not sure what should i do and i been looking everywhere for almost 7 hours now and still got nothing, Please Help.
i tried to flash the original firmware not that it came with because it came from china but the UAE one, and when i do it get stuck on the opening logo unlike the custom firmware that gets stuck on Samsung logo, and when i try to access the recovery mode i get this down there in the logo:
E: Failed to mount /efs (Invalid argument)
E: Failed to mount /efs (Invalid argument)
#Manual Mode#

Applied CSC-Code : unknown
Successfully applied multi-CSC
E: Failed to mount /efs (Invalid argument)
E:can't mount /efs/log/boot_cause
E:can't open /efs/log/boot_cause
anyone can shed some light on what i might need to do

would somebody please help me
would somebody please help me, i don't know where else to go, i came here because this is like the mother of all developers im lost

yes i can get into download mode and i already used it to flash the original pda so with the cwm

Okay, lets take it a step at a time. Can you boot into recovery? IF so, clear the cache, dalvik, and do a factory reset (you will lose data). Then try rebooting the tab.
Also, what happens when you connect up to Odin? Does it show com connected?

i did all that

i did all that already and i can connect to download mode fine no problem so does my recovery works fine as well,
the problem seems to be that when i installed the tablet rom erased my efs or im not sure what happened exactly but for all i know i need an efs img for n8000 because i didnt back it up and cant find it T_T

Which rom were you on originally, as in region and version? Which telco provider?
Your first post is a bit garbled and hard to read.
Im guessing you bought the tab in china? But you live in UAE?

you're rgith the device originally came from china and it was unlocked so i had to replace it with something else and it wasn't moded used it for over 4 months and then recently i tried to install something else which led to me by mistake install a tablet rom that was installed and there was no signal thats when i noticed, after that i downloaded moded one by revolution and installed it via cwm after that i rebooted and it got stuck at samsung logo then i tried the original one after reboot it got stuck at the first logo that says Samsung Galaxy note 10.1 after that i formated sdcard and preload folder so is cache

Assuming the product is not a fake flashing a stock rom may bring back your EFS folder .
Preference would be for the original rom .
EFS /IMEI is tied to the phone not a folder that can be swapped .

im not sure

i'm not sure what you meant, but why would i get that error that efs cannot be mounted and i already tried to flash the original rom, and it was one big file..
im just lost here i don't really know what to do im just assuming.. please advise

Select N8000 roms in the search box and scroll down to the China rom. Download and install via odin. This will take you back to the stock rom. It should replace your efs folder.

im downloading it from samfirmware but do you really think that the original firmware could replace an efs mount error? i thought th efs wasn't replaceable and about the phone unit so is the IMEI,
also if anyone could or have already seen N8000 Pit file ever please advise where to get it because i've searched the internet all over for it with no use

On the OG tab 7 the efs was replaced by flashing to region specific stock. Would imagine it would be same here. You just lose ALL data in the process.

i have a friend who sent me EFS but when i tried to install it from recovery but it aborts, any ideas on how to get it there or if i have to unizp it and install one of the md5 files or one of bin inside like nv_data,
also please if you could help me locate the pit file for n8000 which doesn't exist i'd be grateful

From what I remember its not a flashable file. It needs to be copied and pasted via a file explorer.

is there a way?
is there a way to do that in cwm?
and what about that pit file, have you seen it or came across it before?

what happened when you used ODIN to flash a whole new firmware?

Not that I know of. You need r/w permissions (root access) and from the tab you need to use a file explorer to replace the efs folder with the new one. I doubt your friends efs data would help anyway, the imei is unique to each device.
The pit file contains the partition information for the device. Unless you have messed with it (unlikely as it is hard to mess with) then I wouldn't worry about the pit file.
Did you try flashing the china rom from samfirmware yet?

That's the method I used. make sure after first odin flash, you let your device reboot twice before u apply cwm tar file.

我按照之前给的连接的办法,在odin界面刷入cwm包,之后重启机器,结果进入的还是3e的界面。之前机器到手的时候是li7,后来连接wifi之后,强制升级了。
Sorry one more question HK brother,~
if i use this package on ZHALI7, will it wipe my existing data ?
also if i use this package, will it upgrade from ZHALI7 to 8?

You can use this package on ZHALI7, however it will not update your modem/csc/boot to ZHALI8. I don't think it's a major problem though, as it is just a software package modification and it should work properly.

Same here. Same as Asiafalcon Talking about. After flash the recovery.md5. Then reboot into the recovery mode, found that it still show me 3e.
I haven't give up so I tried the way from the galaxy note 2 topic from this forum, used the recovery and root file which is for the note 2. I though it may be the same thing since both of them are also using 4.1.1. Unfortunately, I've failed flasing and popup the yellow triangle on my i9305.
Finally, I tried to using the i9305 root/recovery file to flash once again on it and it can boot up well. At the moment, I found my phone can not detect my micro sim even if I've the newone. Does any one know how to fix this? Do I need to re-flash the original rom (with re-partition from odin) once again?

I'll state carefully and again, do not ever re-partition the device UNLESS 1) you have a backup EFS copy and 2) you are sure that the partition PIT file you are using is for i9305/T AND your specific model (16/32/64 gb), and nothing else.
I'll also re-elaborate my steps - after you have first flashed the Odin rom , make sure you install the CWM through odin AFTER at least two reboots. 3e will be gone once you do so.
Re: Kazumi
So the above step could fix my currently problem? Can I get back the 3G signal and detect my micro sim as normal?

should be, unless the device's NV data area (IMEI) is corrupted. Otherwise, I would suggest you to reflash the official rom first and check whether your device has a signal or not.

You stated in the OP that you had a 32 GB, so you'll need a 32 GB .PIT. However, I don't believe that is your problem as a .PIT defines the partition table layout on the device. That should not have been changed at all. I'd try redownloading the ROM you want and try again, or I'd choose another ROM. Also, are you 100% sure that the ROM you are using is compatible with your tablet?

So I can maybe restore my Note...
It's a 16GB one...
I sadly find myself in this exact same position. My GT-N8000 was unrooted (though it had been rooted previously via framaroot) and working fine. A few days ago I tried to boot up in the morning, but the screen remained black Figuring that it just needed charging I set it to charge, then tried to start it again a few minutes later. It reached the glaxy Note 10.1 screen and never changed.
Over the last few days I have tried flashing CWM, TWRP and Strock recovery but with no joy. The tablet will boot into Doenload mode for ODIN but will never get to recovery mode.
Via ODIN, I have flashed the stock firmware, but still no change. I even tried repartitioning by flashing 4.04 Android firmware and the corresponding Pit file (found on these forums) but still no change.
Anybody have any idea what might have happened or how it might be fixed? Thanks so much if anyone can help me
bump....any suggestions would be so appreciated!
Same problem : (
I've taken my device to the maintenance center and they figured the problem out as a chip problem and the solution was to change the board with about half the device price .. Went to another maintenance center said that there is no solution else the chip

Same here
Even my note went through this problem. So, after sending it to the service center they say that the whole motherboard has to be changed.

[Q] (Q) HELP....GT-N8010 bricked ?????????

Hi there,
I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 WIFI (GT-N8010). I had it rooted, custom ROM on it.....frequently forced closes so i decided to cleensweep the thing. Went into TWRP....did factory reset (wipe cache, Dalvik and System) and then formatted DATA.
So no OS anymore.
Then when i wanted to flash the custom ROM (from external SD like i always do) again.....it got stuck.......couldnt flash it it said. Okay.....so.....now what i thought. I tried the procedure of flashing with the galaxy Toolkit. Doesnt work because it waits for "debug enable"....but there is no OS.....so cant do that.
Then i made the biggest mistake i guess.
I flashed new firmware through ODIN.....but accidently for the GT-N8000. Strange that the procedure went well.
Then it came: the device got stuck on the Samsung logo.....no bootloop....just the logo. When i restarted the tablet it went strait to download mode (power and vol - normally) I dont even get the choice of cancelling or continue to download mode. The screen looks like this:
ODIN MODE
product name: gt-n8000
current binary: samsung official
system status: custom
(and then in gray) RP SWREV: A2
And NO custom binary download: no
When i go into recovery mode (power and vol+) it goes strait to the android with "downloading, do not turn off device"
WHAT HAPPENED ????
And does somebody know what to do PRETTY PLEASE
Hope you guys know what to do....or is it bricked ????
PS. It's still seen by Odin !

I had the same problem as you, and I had to flash via Odin v3.09 a firmware 4.4.2 and it rebooted fine.

just flashing 4.4.2 didn't do the trick. ...odin said "fail" when trying to flash the nand. I had to flash another pit file with it. Why that had to be done I don't know. ..just read it somewhere.
Thnx for the reply

Could I please have a secure PIT file for the GT-N8010 16GB bought in France? I've bricked my Note 10.1 after updating to the official Kitkat (N8010XXUDNE4_N8010OXXDNF1_HOME.tar.md5). I did a wipe data and cache and all seemed to be working fine for 2 days... but the tablet got stuck on a game and after a force close has been stuck in a bootloop with no access to recovery mode. I do manage to get into download mode and have tried to flash a number of times with different roms (going back seems to be impossible with KitKat) but to no avail as I keep getting an issue about 'no PIT partition'. I took it to a shop (as my warranty ran out a month ago - lucky me!) and they were also unable to flash the tablet so the issue does not seem to be the cable or the drivers (as Odin recognizes the tablet). I tried flashing with a PIT file (ticking re-partition with and without the kitkat rom) that I got on some website but I'm not certain it is the right one for my GT-N8010 and it also fails. Before I try a Nand erase I want to make sure that I have the right PIT file. By the way does the PIT file you have work with KitKat as the one I found seems to be for an outdated version of Android and as Kitkat doesn't enable one to go back to an older version of Android I'm in a catch 22 with only the Nand erase option left?
FYI, I tried flashing a recovery like TWP to try flashing custom roms but it also doesn't work.
Any other ideas? Should I tick Nand Erase and Phone EFS Clear. As the issue seems to be the kitkat bootloader is it possible to flash a bootloader? Can't find any trace of anything other than the tar files for GT-N8010 in Jelly Bean or KitKat. Anybody have a bootloader, PDA, CSC and Phone file for the GT-N8010? Can one attempt the following on a GT-N8010: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2610757&page=2 ?
Thanks for any help as I've been without my tablet for weeks now!!:crying:
Need PIT file for GT-N8010 16GB under Kitkat

can you send me that pit file too, please?
Me too!
I'd like that file too...
I just flashed the wrong bootloader file onto my N8010. Luckily it's still working!
Still looking for the correct KitKat bootloader, but I'd happily take the pit file and see if that works.
Pretty Please!

I have the same problem... flashed 4.4.2 on a North American Galaxy Note 10.1 (2012) with Odin and am stuck in downloading mode.
Can someone send me the pit file I require? Please!

Lucky me! Flashing the wrong bootloader probably didn't work. I was able to flash a stock KitKat rom yesterday and my device still seems to have a working pit file.
Details: German Note 10.1 GT N8010 updated to KitKat, but the pit file seems to be older. Any other info needed?
This is how I got the pit file.
Code:
sudo heimdall download-pit --output Samsung-Note-10.1-PIT.txt
I had trouble opening the result in a text editor, so I'm not sure, I got it right. You'll probably have to rename it... Let's see, if I'm allowed to upload.

Thanks... Any idea what the name of the original PIT file is?
(I believe it should have the .pit extension. I hope I can rename this file accordingly?)
Sorry, no.
Heimdall doesn't seem to care how the file is named. I'd hazard a guess, that it's similar for most Samsung devices.
help please. .
Hi
Any chance of sending me the PIT file. . I did the same! :'(
Thanks in advance .
