Hello, it seems that my note 10+ lite has become a paperweight after a successful odin flash. Odin completed and then I disconnected the phone and when it restarted, it went back to download mode. Now when I turn it off with Volume down + power, it will turn on itself and go back into download mode.
Tried connecting it to Odin again and it wont detect the phone. Any ideas on how to get it back to work again?
Thanks
Try getting into recovery, factory reset, try Odin again.

Like what the title says, I was in the midst of flashing my phone via Heimdall but one of the updates read "fail" and the program was frozen. Stupidly, I unplugged my phone from the usb cable and turned off the phone. I tried to reboot it again but it isn't turning on. Did I f*ck up my phone for good or is there ANY way I can save it? I really would appreciate any help.
I doubt your phone is bricked...try putting it back in download mode and run heimdall again
Download mode:
Pull battery
Put battery back in
Hold both volume buttons
Connect USB storage while holding volumes
If anything pops up your in download mode...unless its a Samsung logo...if you see that you didn't do it right...

As MG said i aslo doubt that ur phone is hard bricked if it was not stuck at the BL flash. Keep tryin to put ur phone in DL mode.
in some rare cases the actual jpg file for download mode gets corrupt but the bootloader is still capable of entering download mode. have heimdall open with the stock rom setup to flash and see if it recognizes a connection, if it does then just flash
My GT P6800 was working fine a few days ago. Charged it fully and went on holidays. Went to turn it on, and no activity. Plugged it in to charge, the battery icon came on screen and I let it charge fully. I then tried to turn it on again, and it still wouldn't turn on. I've now found that the only thing I can do is boot into download mode. Vol Down and Power brings up the Download Mode menu, when I press Vol Up, it enters Download Mode, when I press Vol Down to reboot, the screen blanks and nothing happens. I've tried pressing the power button for up to 30 seconds - nothing. I've tried entering recovery mode using Vol Up and Power buttons - nothing.
I entered download mode and tried to install ClockworkMod recovery using Odin, but once Odin had finished and "rebooted" the tablet, the screen went blank and nothing happened.
I'm happy to blow this away, install any ROM etc., would just like to get it working. It's been a while since I last rooted/flashed it, but I believe it's still running 4.04, and was rooted some time ago.
Any tips very welcome!
Try flash a full stock firmware package with Odin.
Try with your current firmware version first.
Try with HC 2nd.

Hmmm... I installed P6800XXLQ2_P6800OXALQ2_ATO obtained from Sammobile using ODIN, had "Automatically reboot" ticked, and once the flashing finished, the device didn't reboot. I then tried all the power button options, and the only one that gave a response was entering download mode. I then entered download mode, and let it sit there for a while while I did a bit more research, and then I noticed the screen went blank. I've now tried to turn it on again, and now get no response at all. Will try to plug it in to charge for a bit and see if it responds.
Any other ideas?
Ok, not sure what's happened here. Plugged it in, it showed the charge icon, and then booted up. Nothing has been wiped, it still shows as 4.0.4. I'm wondering if for some reason it was actually booting, but the screen wasn't coming on properly, and therefore it's run the battery down. It's now showing as charging, and the battery currently has 0% charge. Will let it charge for a while, then try root, install CWM and flash 4.1.2....
thanks for your help.
I have the same problem. I can enter only in download mode, if I press Vol Up I still see Samsung logo, no any actions. I've tried to install CWM, stock firmware, PIT with re-partition. No success. Need your help, please.
If you'se can get to download mode... using Odin, Flash stock Honeycomb..3.2...
If you get that (HC) up and running, then do the steps to up and up to JB...
good luck
So i tried to root the device - i followed the steps from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=53035539
then i downloaded the Kitkat firmware and followed the steps here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2767314
After pressed start on Odin v3.09 with the Kitkat firmware (N8000XXUDNE4_N8000OXADNE4_N8000XXUDNE1.tar.md5) i waited for a few minutes until completed.
my tablet has now says ' Downloading...Do not turn off target!!.
I have no idea what to do next. I tried rebooting it using the power button but it keeps going back to the same screen.
i have to do this whilst Odin is running on my PC and also when i unplugged the USB cable from the tablet.
I tried the download mode (hold power button + volume down) but it keeps saying the same screen only with the upper left texts saying 'Odin Mode'
I'm completely stuck. Help, anyone?

I had the same when I first tried to install it. I went back to odin 1.85 and everything went perfect
Same here. Flashed successfully with Odin 3.07
Hello,
same problem here. With no success. Please help!
I flashed succesfully with Odin 1.85.
Ok, so I tried to root my phone using odin and cf auto but at the end of the process when my phone got rebooted I was stuck on the logo screen for ages and this small red text showed at the top saying something like recovery is not seandroid enforcing. So after searching through solutions I tried formatting the phone but when I tried to go into recovery mode it just rebooted back to the logo screen. So I then tried to reinstall the firmware but after doing this Odin said failed and then my phone got rebooted and is now stuck on the message "An error has ccured while updating the device software. Use the Emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC software." But Samsung Kies and Smart Switch says my device is not supported and when I try to go into recovery or download mode the phone just turns of and goes back to the error screen. Can anyone please help me. This is a new phone and my parents would kill me if they found out I screwed it up already.

Put your phone in download mode and use odin to flash ROM. It will work.
Good luck
1) smartswitch or kies wont work at all because you already tripped your knox
2) recovery is not seandroid enforcing <- this text shows you have custom recovery installed.
3) you possibly didnt turned knox off. settings>lock screen and security > find my mobile> there will be an option to switch it off
now solution
1st of all you havent bricked it! its soft bricked and not hard bricked(hard brick wont even turn on)
what you can do is let the battery drain off totally charge it and try to put it in download mode > odin > flash stock rom first(important step).
from there try to turn it on if it does you great. and dont use cf auto root if you are not familiar with it download some other roms which are way better than stock touchwiz,pre rooted and way better than it(like the note5 rom for s6 by arter).
by the way keycombinations >
downloadmode = vol down+home+power to switch off download mode vol down+ power only
recoverymode= vol up+home+ power
if you can put it in download mode follow my steps and hopefully you can,just keep trying

My phone wont go into download mode. When I press the button combination, the phone reboots and goes back into the screen saying the software error again. And the first time I tried to flash stock the phone is how the error message came up.

Ok so I let my phone completely drain of charge, then the second I put it on charge, the phone goes to the software error screen. Download mode just reboots phone into the error screen and recovery mode doesn't seem to do anything. Ill see if Odin recognizes the phone though
Ahm probably you missed something that could help you resolve your issue in much less time.
1. Press Vol Down + Power Button for 5 seconds until it reboots. After the screen is off then quickly switch to Vol down + Home + Power button to access download mode.
It is the key combination to safemode but it your case, it will just force restart your phone. No need to drain your battery.
2. Maybe most of the newbies always missed this part before doing anything to their phone. Backup (either on smart switch or Nandroid*best option)
3. You need to have proper samsung usb drivers installed and check in odin if your phone was recognized.
The only thing I see from your first post is that the firmware installation (odin) was interrupted. Please let it finished installing before doing anything in ur phone. Check faulty usb ports/usb cables to ensure your pc/laptop works well with ur s6.
Let us know how if u still encounter any issues.

do as the guy above said in 1st step thats a key step to put it in download mode
Thank you guys
The phone is all good now. It turns out that the software error screen was also the download mode. So I flashed the stock rom and everything is fine now. Thanks for the help.

Even though knox is tripped you can use smartswitch.
I know this because I have done it.
I rooted my phone, installed custom kernel, etc.
I then broke the screen, and since it was a hardware issue, I got it covered by my phone provider. (I am in Aus, we have different warranty laws compared to the USA.)
But I had to return it to stock. So I used Smartswitch to do so, even with knox tripped.
Long story short, the phone was updating to the latest OTA update and I believe it restarted suddenly somewhere during the update. Now it is stuck in this never ending boot loop. Turn on the phone and it tries to go into recovery boot, then shows the android guy and fails.
I have tried booting into recovery mode but it still goes to the android guy saying it is "Installing system update" then fails. I downloaded Kies and Odin but neither recognize that the phone is even there.
Is there anything else I can try or is this phone brain dead?
Try going into download mode and flashing whatever firmware you're on. Instead of holding up,home key and power you hold down, home key and power. Then hook phone up to computer and, using odin, reflash your firmware.

Yep, this guy is correct. Download mode, let your computer install the drivers (will do it automatically) and viola, now its recognized by odin.
Sounds like your gunna need xtra help
1. Load Firmware on Odin , click PDA TAB & load Firm|file then plug your phone in2 USB & Hit Start.
Then dont mess w| your phone until 'Box' says PASS
