[Q] N8020 semi brick,stuck startup logo,No Recovery Mode! - Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello All,
My N8020 is now semi brick after trying to flash it back to stock.It was on custom rom before but showing different errors so i decided to change the rom...First i tried to install another custom rom which was cynogenmod 10 but after intstalling this rom from cwm phone stuck at cynogenmod startup logo i waited for long time but still nothing.Then tried different versions of cynogen roms but same...After all this i decided to install a official rom so i flashed this with
N8020XXBMA3_N8020XSABMA2_N8020XXBMA1_HOME.tar
but now the real problem started..Now i can boot phone in download mode but not in recovery mode at all...Then i tried to flash a cwm via odin and get "PASS" messege in odin but still no recovery mode...Tried to flash to flash clockwork recovery several time but nothing changed and then i check in download mode the custom flash counter increase every time i try to flash cwm...then i searched the stock recovery for 8020 but when i try to flash it via odin i always get "FAIL"...
Now i m out of ideas and searching for a real solution....SO can anybody please tell me what to do next to get it back to life???
Regards,
Muneeb

Try to flash cwm again. Don't check auto reboot in odin. When finished flashing cwm, press power+volume up, when samsung or whatever appears on screen release power but keep presing volume up until cwm loads.
Let me know if you have any luck.

I would start all over from scratch to ensure the files you used were for your device.
THIS IS THE AUTO ROOT PACKAGE FOR AN N8020. UNZIP THE FILE & FLASH VIA ODIN
THIS IS CWM RECOVERY FOR N8020. FLASH VIA ODIN
THIS IS TWRP RECOVERY FOR N8000 WHICH IS WHAT YOU WOULD USE. FLASH VIA ODIN
Its possible at this point you might need to run a pit file. Nand erase as well. Read into them before EVER attempting.

Hello,
I have tried these two already "CF-Auto_root" and "N8020-CWM-6.0.2.8-Darkman.tar.md5" but still same..But now my question is will N8000 twrp recovery work on N8020?
Pit yes it can be the solution but its bit risky isn't it?

Yes N8000 is the twrp recovery for N8020. Yes pit is risky but if you read into how to do it and follow it you will be just fine. Sometimes a device may require running NAND Erase also (meaning checking the box in odin). The biggest problem with pit file is people not knowing and just running it as if they were getting a custom ROM.

i tried the twrp recovery also but still same the custom binary counter increasing but no recovery mode....
Can u plz tell me a bit about pit flashing how to do that????One more thing i only able to find one pit file all over the google which is created by a user so can i use that pit file..
Thanks for ur time!

I didn't find a working pit for my n 8010. Don't worry too much about the binary counter, mine was 118 today, I reset it with triangle away. I don't have the balls to do a nand erase on mine, I'm not even sure that is required for my problem, at least mine is working.

When you ran N8020XXBMA3_N8020XSABMA2_N8020XXBMA1_HOME.tar in odin did you have the re-partition box selected?

Yes, dont check auto boot though leave that unchecked and if it passes reboot to recovery and do a data wipe then reboot. If you run into error add your pit file to the pit window along with your stock tar.md5 file and run it just as I mentioned before with repartition selected
Make sure the pit file you use is for your device model/storage size

hi sir need assistance. Can you please re-upload links im having the same problem.
N8020 suddenly rebooted and stuck on boot loop.

TWRP and CWM see development threads .

Oddly enough a notification was sent to my email. That's correct though I'm no longer active in this forum.
Here is all I have left on the Galaxy Note 10.1, anything else you need you will have to find.

Verifies that the firmware package that you downloaded is not corrupt, then enters in download mode, flash with ODIN ,if it remains in bootloop enters into recovery and performs wipe date , factory reset, should start ....

The same to me, maybe superbrick.
Try to download pit file for P6200 and reflash firmware, pit file via Odin.
If not work, send it to SS service for warranty or repartition use pit file, look for at Gnotes, Tab 7.7 box.

I would expect that if you would find the files for the 6200 version that it would do the same thing. It's already borked. Is it under warranty

[Solved, read 3rd page] Failed CWM flash, problems...

Hi there! I will try to write about my problem as much as I can.
I'm on stock XWLA4 and CWM 4.0.0.2. I wanted to flash CWM 6.0.1.5 (and CM10 later) but when I push start in odin my laptop give me nice BSOD. Now my Android wont load. I see first screen with device name and later error - phone on the left, pc display on the right and yellow triangle betwen them. Under it a msg:
Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I can go into Recovery Mode (4.0.0.2) but don't know if it will work good.
When I enter into Download Mode im pressing Continue (Volume up) and I see green Android with "Downloading..." msg under it and next msg under it "Do not turn off target !!" just like usb cable was still plug in(?) but msg on the top of screen tell me its waiting for usb cable.
I tried flash CWM again on my PC (leptop BSOD-ing me all the time in this one case) when I push Start its stuck at:
<ID:0/005> Added!!
<ID:0/005> Odin v.3 engine (ID:5)..
<ID:0/005> File analysis..
<ID:0/005> SetupConnection..

I read on web about one fix so I unplug usb cable and plug in, then it start to do smth and stuck at:

If I don't unplug and wait for long enought I get this:

Tried on few usb ports.
I was thinking at beginning about backup with current CWM but I think "Hey, its only CWM, not all rom", then BSOD from my laptop maybe ruin everything x). Hopefully I do a backup with current CWM version. Should I try flash CWM v6 via CWM? I saw version for that.
But guys, what can I do now?
Install kies in your system so that it will update the required drivers, Then flash the Stock ROM and after that you can flash CWM V4...
CM 10 can be flashed through CWM 4 also so no need to flash CWM V6...
Recently my phone also having similar problem.. upgrade from Stock 2.3.6 KK5 (with CWM 6.0.1.1) to latest Stock 4.0.4 XLP2.. then I wanted to load CWM..
so I downloaded 6.0.1.5.. stuck at the "<ID:0/005> Firmware update start... <ID:0/005> recovery.img..." for nearly 30 minutes nothing happened.. unplugged it..start again and "Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again" came out..
tried several files.. maybe my download was corrupted.. still having problem.. so I flash back stock ICS recovery via ODIN.. and tried CWM 6.0.1.1 and it works!!
I dont know why my phone could not install CWM 6.0.1.5
The are some problems with Odin-flashable CWMv6 and TWRP. Flash their zips with older versions.

Yes, saw that topic but can't find 6.0.1.1 . Or I will just try v5.5.0.4 (is it also creating some "blobs" file during backup?)
And is there any reason to use Odin v3.07? Using v1.85 atm.

I have it in My Dropbox. will update it here. But till then use V5.5.0.4. but i dont think so it has blobs for backup..
I tried to flash v5 and v4 but also stuck on recovery.img. Only this time a green bar of process move just a little at beginning. "SOS" msg in first square under "Android+SLP" is meaning smth?
And still when I go into Download Mode I see msg:
"Downloading...

Is this a right thing if I didn't plug cable yet?
How can I try to fix it in another way? Or only what I can try is flash stock rom and then flash again CWM? But I dont know if my CWM backup I have done yesterday will work now. What if I recover backup later and this situation happen again?
Is it possible for our Royal delete and install CWM via adb console?

Great buddy. This link is not available in Adam thread. Ask him to add this one also.
Ok guys, I flash stock XWLA4 and its working . I didn't do any reset/format so could I use rom just like that again? I mean apps would be working good? Now if I want to use Titanum Bacup for some apps, everything gonna be ok later after flash another rom and I restore them from TB? Or install them in normal way and I restore only app's data?
I thought CWM is a separated thing from ROM Oo. I was wondering is it gonna work when I flash rom but not CWM .

The apk tool backs up all the apps but gives you a choice which apk to restore.. It creates an apk of all the installed apps so that you don't have to download and reinstall all apps

You cannot flash ICS roms with v1.85. Must use v3.07 for those.

If stuck at bootscreen turn off device, then hold power button and volume up to enter standard android recovery mode, then select clear dalvic and clear cache, reboot and that sorted it

But i made a full wipe, it still doesn't help.

If you still have CWM recovery, then your attempt to ODIN the stock ROM did not work.
What version CWM do you have?
Find the stock ROMs here, but make sure your model is p3100 not P3113 or similar.

Is the following process correct?
Open Odin-> Tablet in download mode-> Connect-> Choose the downloaded zip in PDA column

[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
Any PIT file please? Thanks!
Same problem here

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 .

Galaxy S6 probably softbricked? Ran out of things to try,

I've tried everything that i could find using google. Nothing has worked so far.
My friend has a S6 that was on 5.1.1 with root. It didnt received OTA updates so he tried to flash the new Nougat rom using ODIN. Alas the phone softbricked.
I can access download mode, but doesn't matter what firmware i try ODIN always end up failing. It's either sboot.bin, cm.bin so i think it has something to do with the bootloader? I'm not sure.
Tried to use SmartSwitch too but after it downloads the firmware it gives me an error and says to enter safe mode (????) so that's not working either.
Has anyone have an ideia of what to try next?
Thanks in advance.

Hold down all the buttens on the phone , it should eventually get to download mode , then flash twrp and then flash a rom and see if it boots that way

Already tried. Touchscreen on TWRP is not responsive.
Do you using latest Odin 3.12.7 and newest Samsung USB Drivers and latest right firmware for your model (the best way to get it is SamFirm)?
Softbricked S6, Only Download mode
Hi,
I'm facing the same issue. Tried multiple firmware from sammobile using latest version of odin. I can access only download mode and when not in download it boots till the samsung logo and goes into bootloop. https://imgur.com/a/9bJnM

Touchscreen is not working on TWRP. I'm downloading a Custom ROM and will try to install it trough ADB using TWRP commands. Shot in the dark.
Ended up not working.
Tried PhilZ recovery and I got to flash Global Elite rom but it doesn't boot. Is PhilZ compatible with Nougat roms? What else can I try with this recovery.

I flashed TWRP using odin and got "pass" message. But i cannot access recovering mode. I can access only recovery mode and after flashing with stock rom i get the message as "pass" in odin as always but same bootloop.

Download right newest firmware for your model, use SamFirm to get it. Then use Odin 3.12.7 with newest Samsung USB Drivers to full-flash stock ROM. Set also "Factory Reset" in Odin then START. If Odin shows you 'pass' then everything comes good.

Did you for sure used right firmware correctly for your model etc? Look HERE, try like that.
How is/was your reactivation lock? On or off. I had problems with odin when it was ON.

It is OFF. See here => https://imgur.com/a/9bJnM I downloaded the right firmware for model. I'm sure of it now. Used samsung smartswitch to know my csc code using serial number. Still i'm facing the same issue. I'll try flashing it on another pc later today. Also, Should i change any odin setting while flashing ?? Like NAND erase or bootloader update etc

Not necessary, just "Factory Reset" and that's it. I don't know why Odin shows you "pass
" and your phone still shows "system status: custom". Looks like Odin didn't flashing correctly.

This was before i flashed using Odin. I tried flashing twrp first and then stock rom. Does this make any difference ?
P.S: I'm not able to access recovery mode, only ODIN is possible.

Ok, but why stock? If you flashed TWRP then full-wipe and clean install for example Noble ROM. Try like that...
