[Q] Galaxy Note 3 completely broken - General Questions and Answers

Hello Guys,
I dont know if such a thread already exists. If so, please refer to it, thanks!
I have a huge problem: I bricked/rooted my SM-N9005 (Galaxy Note 3). Everything was good but then an issue came along the way and I wanted to unbrick it, so I could make use of the warranty. So I downloaded ODIN and found the right version on sammobile.com(N9005XXUENB4_N9005DREENB3_N9005XXUENB1_HOME.tar.md5).
I tried to unbrick it with odin, but failed somehow, and tried again, and failed,... then I had this issue http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2666432
and now it wont start up ANYMORE. Black screen all the way!
I would be very pleased if you had a solution to get it running again, I dont mind wether bricked or unbrickt, I just want to use my Phone again, so please help you guys.
Thank you for your help

[Completed] Verizon Galaxy Note 3 BIG ISSUES

Hey all, I'm new to the forum (although I've been crawling around for years without a name)
I recently got hold of a Verizon Galaxy Note 3 SM-900V from a buddy of mine who bricked it or something. I have great experience rooting my devices so I figured I'd take it from him and try and get it working.
I'm not 100% sure what he has tried to flash, and hasn't but I'll tell you where my issues are, maybe someone can help!
Device doesn't go passed the Verizon screen. The bootloader is unlocked, but by the looks of it he did NOT install any type of Recovery System other than the original Android one. I've tried to see if I could flash any on the device, but it appears I can only use SafeStrap, and in order to install the device must power fully on. I've gone into the normal Android Recovery, deleted Cache, and Data/Factory Reset multiple times. Still goes to Verizon Screen.
Than I figured I'll just push 4.4.2 back in through Odin. Nope. I have the stock firmware and everything, but it stops on Odin at Aboot and my phone will say Fused 3 Binary 2? I'm really lost on that, I know it's due to the bootloader being unlocked.
It seems the only thing in Odin that will pass is the "unified KK Firmware." I'm kinda at a lose on this phone (luckily it was free) but I really would like to get it working.
Thanks in advanced and I really appreciate all the hard work everyone does here.
I'm really stuck on this.
I can't load stock, I can't recover, I can't factory wipe. Anyone?
What version do I flash? NC4? MJE?
Also, when I try and flash with stock recovery (since my buddy didn't install Safestrap) I get a error message. I believe it's footer is wrong -signature verification failed. I'm not sure what this means?
Thank you guys. I'm sure I can get this phone to work since I can get it to turn on, it's not a full brick.

I really appreciate the help. I'm going to check it out and hopefully be good to go from here. Will update this thread with the info if it goes through, and if it doesn't I will be posting in the other. Again, thank you so much!
Ugh... Still no go. Same thing.
It fails at the aboot.mbn
Again...asking for help in that thread is your best bet.
I think there is something wrong with my bootloader. Is there a way to reset or lock it? I tried everything, it won't load past the red verizon screen.
I'm noticing my little Android in the back of Recovery Mode says "No Command" also. Kinda strange.
XDA Assist is here to help guide members to where they should be able to find help. We don't do support I'm afraid. Please ask in the thread I linked. And again, they know your device best.

[Q] Debrick.img for Note 10.1 N8000 android 4.4 as my note is hardbricked.

Hi,
Im new to this forum & apologise if wrongly posted.
I really want debrick.img for my note 10.1 N8000 android 4.4.
I have ready many forums & noted that many people like me are suffering from this hardbrick problem which is not letting us enter into recovery mode too.
As in recovery we are stuck on teamwin i.e. is twrp logo. Everything is getting flashed but still note is in bootloop. The only thing I found was debrick.img which can be created only by unbricked phones.
If someone can create it for me that will be great help.
When I got bootloop I was on GNABO Rom v8. Everything was workibg fine suddenly 1 week ago it got stuck. I searched alot, but found debrick.img the only solution I guess.
Kindly suggest if some else solution is also possible ?
Can check this post for creating debrick.img - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2626147
Thanks in advance. In urgent need for my note to start up back.

[Completed] How do I unbrick my phone?

First of all, I'd like to say that I know very little about how Android, electronics or mobile phones work in general, so everything I've done has been from internet tutorials. Please don't use any jargon as I probably won't know what you mean. ELI5.
A few days ago, I tried to root my phone and it didn't work. As a result the phone went into a boot loop and I didn't know how to fix it. The long and short of it was that I ended up flashing the stock firmware onto my phone and basically doing a complete factory reset. After some time trying this I managed to get the phone to start up and I was able to access the interface and all that. Unfortunately, my WiFi wasn't working (the button would simply turn off whenever I turned it on) so I had no way to download the most recent updates or apps or anything like that. After following several tutorials on how to fix this, such as flashing the modems and bootloader, I still wasn't having any luck. So I tried something that proved to cause even more problems - I tried to install a new kernel. Now my phone won't even boot past the logo. I probably didn't install the right one, but what can I say, it's not very clear which one I need.
Now I'd like to point out that as a layman who just wants his phone to work again, half of the time I don't understand what I'm doing or whether or not I'm doing it right. In other words, I realise that I've probably messed up my phone, but what can I do? I can't take it to a technician because I don't have the money for that, I can't buy a new phone for the same reason and I can't phone up and ask for a replacement because the warranty expired ages ago and I don't have the original documents here.
I've installed the Team Win Recovery Project on my phone and I have Odin installed on my PC as well.
TLDR; yes, I know I'm an idiot and I don't appreciate you telling me. I'd like to reset my phone to how it was before - the normal firmware, the normal kernel and all that, but I'd still like to have root access and keep the TWRP recovery mode too.
Model: Samsung Galaxy S4 GT-I9505
Model name: GALAXY S4 LTE
Country: UK
Version: Android 5.0.1
You'll probably need more information, so if you do just let me know and, if possible, where I can find it.
I have some good news. I managed to flash the firmware again and now I can access the phone again. However, the WiFi problem persists. I've tried looking on the internet for a solution, but I can't find one. I've tried flashing the modem and all that stuff, but it still doesn't work.
Oh, and by the way, I no longer have TWRP and I don't think I have root access anymore either (I had to do a data partition wipe as well).
I'd really appreciate a reply from someone. I've tried everything, but to no avail.

[Completed] Galaxy A5 (SM-A500FU) HARD BRICKED please help pls

Hello. Today I tried to downgrade my phone I don't know what was I thinking, but I installed lost of custom ROMs before and stock firmwares too with Odin, so i kinda know how flashing works so I never thought it will be a problem. But after odin successfully flashed my 4.4.4 firmware onto my A5 i restarted the phone, and it wont power up, go into recovery or download mode, or EVEN CHARGE!! it's practically completely dead. Can someone tell me what should I do considering the fact that this is a unibody phone so very hard to cut the power off AND not very much development for it, i can't find debrick images or anything. Somebody knows what should I do? Thank you very much. Oh, and I can't get it to service because of the fact that the screen glass it's a bit shattered its out of warranty so I can't tell them its not my fault and tell them to replace the device. Thanks again.​
