Dead Samsung note 10.1 2012 GT-N8000

Gentlemen,
Please I updated my note 10.1 2012 GT-N8000 to kitkat 4.4.2 without rooting or usb debugging enable, then during charging it, i forget it around four hours it restarted, and all the time in download mode, i used odin, failed to open Com port, i tried to enter to recovery, failed. i tried to enter to bootloader, i thing it is locked, also when i tried to use odin, it tells that no PIT is found, any suggestion? (changed usb cable, uninstall kies and install usb samsung drivers, used different versions of odin with CSC,Bootloader, PIT ,PDA,modem, files etc... ) all are failing, seems that it is just locking itself... the only place i can enter, is when i enter press power button, and - volume (Volume downn), it would take me to ODIN MODE , Product name: GT-N8000, Currnet Binary: Custom, System Status: Official, RP SWREV: A2 and it is all the time Downloading Do not turn off target, even i tried to uninstall the battery for sometime, and i put it again... and if just insert it to the usb it would start directly to Firmware upgrade encountered an issue, please select recovery mode (which i can't enter to it, failed to enter by power + volume up) in kies & try again, also the initialization of kies is not supported, if used...

What are you trying to flash with Odin? Try official
And if the device actually pops up in Odin and the COM port is through then the cable and the hardware is all fine.

Download a N8000 firmware which comes packed in zip
extract it and then select it with AP in odin,
flash and wait until you're done
and if it is struggling with the port try another one

Download the official firmware for your model number regardless of the region (that is if you're ok with it otherwise use your own region's)
Then use the appropriate Odin version to flash the firmware to your device while in download mode. Put the Firmware file into PDA/AP.
Make sure Reartition is not ticked otherwise your device will be bricked. (Lol it rhymes)
Make sure the cable connection is stable and don't disconnect the connection until the process of flashing is done.
Not advertising but you can find your firmware at Sammobile. It tells you which Odin version to use too. I'm not sure if Odin version matters but let's play safe.
Hope this helps.

My phone was on a 4.4.2 custom rom when the same incident as the op happened. Where can I find the official firmware for 4.4.2?

Need Help big time!

I tried to root my S6 using a method posted on here. However something messed up and my phone is i guess (soft bricked)
I have tried MANY different step by step guides with no help at all.
My phone either sits on the "Use smart switch for emergency recovery" or i can get into the ODIN mode, but that's it.
I downloaded the correct firmeware G920PVPU3CPB6_G920PSPT3CPB6_G920PVPU3CPB6_HOME.tar
Opened Odin 3.10.7
Clicked AP
Loaded the PB6
And everytime i attempt to get this to stock it stops at Pit Mapping and fails.
I have changed ports, USB cables, Redownloaded all the USB drivers etc and still can't get my phone to do anything.
Just now, I tried opening the One CLick Root, (just to see) and it doesn't even pick up my phone in Debug Mode, *saying its not in usb debugging* which i know100% i put it in that when i first started or tried to root.
Anyhow
ALL I am needing to do is get my phone back to working order, idc if it's back to stock or not. As long as it works. But i have tried everything i could find, and have had no luck at all.
Some one PLEASE walk me through what i need to do.
RECAP:
Downloaded Odin 3.10.7
Downloaded stock firmware
Gets stuck at Get Pit Mapping then FAILS
From the Odin Screen this is what is listed
Product: SM-G920P
Current Binary: Custom
System Stats: Official
FRP LOCK : OFF
Secure Download : Enabled
KNOX Warranty Void : 0 (0x0000)
RP SWREV: B: 3 K:2 S:2
If anyone can please help get this back in working order i'd be SUPER appreciative.
ALSO: I've tried connecting to Smart Switch to do the Emergency Recovery, but it keeps telling me my SN is incorrect. Dunno why i got it right off the box,lol
ALSO: KIES3 says it isnt a reconized device aswell....

Re-Partition in Odin is OFF right?

[Completed] Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime+(SM-G532F) rooted and locked after disabling OEM unlocking

Hey guys, I'm new here...
Well yesterday my dad bought me a Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime+ SM-G532F (vodafone, South Africa).
I wanted to root it( i always used to use KingoRoot) but i found a thread with an exploit to root the SM-G532F/M/G or something like that. Anyways i used it and flashed the "root-boot.tar" and followed all the steps( Enabled OEM unlocking and usb debugging) and i had root access and everything was perfect.
Then i thought i didn't need the OEM unlocking and the usb debugging anymore so i disabled both. Then afterwards i rebooted my phone( Because i had just installed Magisk so i could play pokemon go on a jailbroken device and it required a reboot.).
As it restarted, I got this message on a light blue screen( i don't think it even booted), "Security Error: This phone has been flashed with unauthorised software & is locked. Call your mobile operator for additional support. Please note that repair/return for this issue may have additional cost."
I think this is because of disabling the OEM unlocking. I tried flashing a stock ROM(it was really small though, but am downloading a 1.5Gb one right now) using odin while in download mode( The phone doesn't have a recovery menu to wipe/factory reset. It goes straight to download mode) and it appears that the custom binary (boot.img) is being blocked by the FRP lock.
Here is what appears when i go into recovery(well download mode):
ODIN MODE (HIGH SPEED)
PRODUCT NAME: SM-G532F
CURRENT BINARY: Custom
SYSTEM STATUS: Custom
FRP LOCK: ON
WARRANTY VOID: 0x1 (0x302)
MTK SECURE BOOT: ENABLE
AP SWREV: B1 K0 S0
SECURE DOWNLOAD: ENABLE
I can't use ADB because it doesn't even appear if i try "adb devices" it is completely blank. But in odin it shows 0:[COM4]. Is this because my usb debugging is disabled? Can i flash with odin if usb debugging is disabled? If not, is there a way to enable usb debugging with the phone only in download mode( As in no ADB recovery or updating from sd card etc).
Please help. I really need to fix this. Even if i lose everything on the phone it's fine since i only got it yesterday.

Greetings and welcome to assist. FRP lock shouldn't prevent you flashing stock rom, the easiest way to restore your device should be with kies/smart switch and using the emergency firmware recovery option

Seems you flashed an unsigned system image or similar to trigger dm-verity like that. Your best option would be to try to set the device in EDL (Qualcomm HS-USB 9008) mode and reflash from there (assuming you already know how to do so) there is a good amount of info on Google and XDA to guide you through. The S6 should have a programmer file to flash as your SBL to reflash the stock firmware
---------- Post added at 03:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:36 AM ----------
If you need to create the rawprogram0 and patch0 files I have custom tools I can share to help you create that as well as your firmware to flash. You will need a programmer though and it can be a difficult process for a user who is beginner with it

@Imtiaz Shah
The 1st thing of all things an Android phone owner should do is turn USB Debugging on: then life becomes easier.
So by means of ADB you can manage Android kernel's dm-verity feature
To disable
Code:
adb devices
adb disable-verity
To enable
Code:
adb devices
adb enable-verity
Is working fine on userdebug builds.

I think in his case he is on a production build which disables this feature. At least as far as I can see
And yes that's the first thing you should do I do agree

Yes Bro. I missed the trick . But this time I think I am really stuck as I was not wise enough to enable USB debugging in advance. I've been trying to connect the phone with multiple laptops, after installing Samsung USB drivers, but the Laptops are not even making a single sound that something has been connected. Nor showing unknown device, I mean just nothing. I am having a hard time to connect my phone with the laptop. even the guys sitiing at the mobile shop returned the phone after two days by saying that they are not able to connect the phone with the PC.
So, at the moment, on the Android System Recovery Screen, there is a error "dm-verity Verified Failed" and when I try "Apply update from ADB" system says "Disabled",,, "Apply update from external source" system says "Disabled",,,,,,"Apply update from cache",,system says,, "deprecated", when I try "Reboot to boot loader",,,nothing happens and phone starts normally and stuck at logo AND I am not able to connect my device with the phone (which seems to be the main problem). Is it something that my phone has gone into some kind of security lock ??? I am able to access the recovery mode as well as download load mode in the phone but nothing happens afterwards..

I have instaled QDLoader HS-USB Drivers and tried connecting my device through Qcom_EMCP_Multi-Port_Software but result invain....

Thanks a million Bro!!
I am a Noob and have no idea about " the rawprogram0 and patch0 files ". I am certainly looking for a soultion to solve my issue but have no idea how much I can bother you on this...... but in either I am really thankful for your sincere offer and really grateful to you. My Heartiest Regards ...

This includes links to the tools you will need and a link to create the proper files. I don't take any credit for these what so ever
The S6 download the lastest firmware and ensure you have the GPT file (it will have a specific name) to use because it will be needed

Soft Bricked sm-j327p not recognized

I'm no tech whiz, my thing is more writing.
I don't know how, but my samsung galaxy emerge got bricked. Soft bricked. I can get it into download mode but it wont be recognized by my pc. Ive tried each port, uninstalled and reinstalled odin, looked in the drives, tried a new cord (or two) and put the phone in different modes. I cant get it into recovery mode, only download mode and an error screen that says:
'Custom binary blocked by FAP lock (recovery.img)
secure fail: recovery

going to the download screen gives me this message:

please help. again, i dont think it's a pc connection problem, i think its a phone problem. so how do fix it?

My guess it's not a hardware problem, but a software problem, otherwise even ODIN wouldn't work in any way.
If phone stupidly boots into download ( fastboot ) mode this means phone's bootloader is directed to do so. To fix this the appropriate property has to be reset. This only progammatically can be done by you if phone's Android got rooted and USB-debugging got enabled, too.

Did you install Samsung USB Drivers from the official website?
I suggest you to use a USB port directly on the motherboard.
Restart your pc after the USB driver is installed.
Goodluck flashing the stock firmware, I believe you should be able to revive easily .
