Hey guys
I have the Telus Galaxy note and since this was my first android phone I learned about rooting .. so I tried it tho it didn't seem to be very successful except if I tried to do anything with downloading roms the screen would go black and I would have to hook it back to my computer and run odin and reflash it just to get it back on .... tonight I don't know why but I (not even thinking ) decided to do a factory reset and when it went to go do it my phone did the same thing .. black screen but this time wont show up in odin .. I got it too once but the flash failed . so as of right now I can put my phone into odin mode but that's really all at this point , I hope someone can help me because im running out of options and am no good at this
thank you for taking the time to read this

Are you trying to flash a custom rom?
try a different usb port and or cable..might help. good luck!
Check out mobile tech videos on YouTube. They have services to root and rom phones.

All I know is im hooking up my note to the computer and odin wont pick it up . I know its not a usb or driver problem and what ive had to do before is hook it to odin and select the PDA and press start and my phone worked fine
Try playing with usb debugging on/off. Reinstall the drivers. I had a real hard time getting odin to see my captivate on my 64bit win 7 laptop. But my desktop pc works everytime. Make sure the usb cable is plugged into the back if you are on a desktop. Make sure you are running odin as administrator.

Why are people flashing with Odin? Drop the rom on the SD and do it through cwm. All the flashing problems are from people flashing through Odin.

Now that you mention it you are CORRECT. Doesn't flashing in odin increase your flash counter or something like that? Please excuse my noob-ness

Honestly I want to help you buddy, but because you neglacted to read anything before you did this, this is your fault!
Yep very old. I cant believe that Koush hasnt figured something out for this yet. He fails too. CyanogenMod has always pushed ROM Manager, even tho most devs state not to use it.
OP: Get into download mode, and flash another, PROPER, kernel with ODIN or Heimdall.
Then use CWM to flash things.
I's in good mood today?
Well thanks anyway; hope to find a solution and post it. I know it was my fault so lwts move on its part of the experience in Android World.

True.
@jdpardo,
If you can get into download mode, or have any sign of life from your phone, then it is not a brick, and you should be able to recover. Please let us know if you can get into download mode, and more help will be forthcoming.

Wish you good luck with that. Jtag takes a fair amount of dexterity for the micro soldering, and some fairly expensive equipment. If you are unable to get it done yourself, the owner of Mobile Tech Videos will perform Jtag recovery for about $50.00.
I sincerely hope you know that the method for getting into download mode on I777 is to take out the battery, plug normal portion of USB into computer already running Odin, then hold both volume buttons and plug in micro USB side to phone.
If that really does nothing for you, then try mobile tech videos.
i777 soft bricked, boot loop never goes away...
I bricked my samsung galaxy s2 i777 by trying to flash a rom via rom manager. While it was installing it, it rebooted and got stock on boot loop.
It can go into download mode but never to recovery or beyond.
I tried every solution recommended out there, like flashing stock kernel, stock rom, different roms, siyah kernel, oneclick unbrick, and you name it. I tied ADB but it does not recognize the device, nor does oneclick unbrick.
Somehow I need to go ahead and wipe everything but since I cannot get to recovery, I cannot wipe it, and every time I flash something via Odin, it goes through the whole process successfully however once it reboots after flashing, it is in bootloop again. All I see is samsung galaxy sII logo window.
Any solutions?
Thanks!

This. Do u have the android sdk installed, and the drivers for the i777 installed? You'll need those plus usb debugging already enabled to use ADB. (if u went the ADB route)

Something went wrong flashing AOKP from AoCP, bootlooped and I thought I could fix it, didn't realize I had to hold the buttons FOREVER, worked, thanks man
A simple way to get the i777 into download mode:
unplug the usb cable
turn the phone off
hold only the volume down button
insert usb cord
Almost instant download mode.
this really will help you

Don't post that video anymore. Also, DO NOT USE THAT VIDEO!
I'm not saying it won't work, but the fact that you've got a file from gs2root shows your inexperience and/or lack of concern for the well-being of others devices. There is no reason to take the risk of using ANYTHING from gs2root... you can get everything needed to do everything possible with this device right here from xda and have the peace of mind that it will work as expected so long as you follow the instructions.

First let me put it out there that I have been rooting and installing roms for multiple phones with no issue ever.
I tried to install *TheCollective*AoCP - CP4.4 for i717 on my note and it hard bricked the first one I don't know why but it did. No biggie so I went through warranty and got a new one today. Heres my process (Assume I have samsung usb drivers already installed and battery is 100%)
Enable USB debugging
Used Odin3 v1.83
Used cwm-touch-i717-120414.tar.md5
Downloaded *TheCollective*AoCP - CP4.4 for i717
Downloaded gapps-jb-20120726-signed
Added both to SD card
Boot into Recovery
NANDroid backup
Wipe data/Factory reset
Wipe Dalvik cache
Format /system
Install ZIP From SD Card (RoM first then gapps)
Reboot.....wont turn on at all black screen nothing from phone
What am I doing wrong?
Someone please tell me.
Dont format /system. It's not necessary. I do everything you did. Except I Use TWRP... I dont see anything wrong with your process
See and on the first phone I didnt format the system and it bricked so I thought it was because I didnt format the system thats why I did it on my note
Edit: Being a broke college student I can't afford this mistake again. If anyone can help me (specific to this rom) that I'm doing wrong or what may be wrong with my phone that would be awesome.
I did everything right I looked through the rom thread well into 100 pages and nobody has had any issues.
I've never hard bricked any other phone before and I had my original note on another rom as well.
It was only until I used that rom did it hard brick or as far as I know it hard bricked.
Can anybody respond to give me a hint as to what happened?
Post a picture of your note. I want to "see" this device.

Fact of the matter is;
The packaged rom you refer to dose not contain bootloaders. So its really quiet unlikely its hard bricked unless you flash it to a device its not ment for.
The recovery in question is the one I use as well so that also should not cause an issue.
Have you tried a jig? To get back into download mode?
I really want to see this device you own I have a feeling you may be flashing the wrong device files.

Sorry for bad writing...its late
I know that the device is not booting at all. no vibrate, no sound just a black screen.
I've heard amazing things about the rom hence why I wanna try it. I don't mean any disrespect to any of the rom developers.
I thank you for even responding! I'm pretty sure it's on my end I just wanna find out what.

i dont know if this is the one that will work for you but its what you need, if you are hard bricked.. did you try pulling batteries and getting into download mode by holding volume down and power and plugging in usb (all without the battery in device) ?
dont know if it will work but give it a shot.

This statement made me think of something else:
1: What cable did you use?
2: Were both phones bricked while flashing from the same PC?
I ask that, because if your phone is unplugged part way through a bootloader being installed... But you don't have to unplug it, it could be a faulty USB cable or bad PC drivers :/
Ive rooted and romd a ton of devices myself never ever bricked one until I came across this one... i own a jig and no recovery no boot whatsoever my only conclusion as to why this happened to me.. is a while back people were reporting a few certain phones had a "brick bug" there's an actual app to run and check to give you some peace of mind.

Used the cable that came with both phones, the old cable for the old phone and the new cable for the new phone
both phones used the same pc.(never had any issue before) Both phones were 100% battery and unplugged while installing the roms though\
Only until after installing the roms did the phone not come back on. (meaning after installing CWM I restarted the phone and it started up fine issue only happened after I installed the rom)
Brick bugs?
So squeezed my way into a replacement.
Scared to try another rom but I think that I will try another one and see if it works. My phone will be here tuesday.
Should I use another computer to do load CWM? Throw some advice as I'm pretty sure this is the last time I can get another phone for a while
Hi... I hard bricked my at&t sgh-i717 in the same way... same rom... same format system... and the phone would not start up, not recovery mode or download mode. I built a jig, that work correctly with the samsung S2, but on the Note no effect :crying:

I bricked a phone and soft bricked a phone and brought it back to normal just recently - The problem that i have is that i actually provide a flashing service to my customers and the guy i had dealt with used samsung kies and downloaded ICS which brings many issues to the table when flashing the easy way. Rather than mess around i decided to go about things the easy way below;
--Enter ODIN mode on i717, Download & Flash the STock Gingerbread 2.3.3 AT&T Rom (which is linked in Da_g's Thread) using ODIN on ur PC i(500MB zip)
--install the DA_G OC root kernel
--then install TWRP.zip via Odin or flash CWM
--then Download and flash Jellbean ROM of your choice / GAPPs. (after you wipe cache x3 and dalvik x3
Make sure you have all the samsung galaxy note drivers installed on your computer... if you are unsure REINSTALL them. Trust me

Hi,
First I would like to say thanks for all the hard and awesome work.
I'm a noob/longime lurker, and don't have enough posts to be able to post on the thread itself, hence the PM.
I just wanted to share a suggestion if you can change your naming convention of your download files on the mirror site (or in general).
I had trouble downloading from the main link which kept timing out on me. So I used the dev-host mirror link, which has 4 links, but ended up downloading the wrong ROM. I should've gotten the i747 one (for AT&T) but instead got the i727 one, as I mistakenly thought these were just all different mirror links to the same file.
Long story short, this ended up bricking my phone, which is now getting exchanged at AT&T.
I know this is completely due to my noobness, and lesson learned,
but my suggestion is if you can change the naming convention of the files, (especially on the download mirror) or somehow make the difference in the files more obvious than just the 1 character digit difference located in the middle of the file name.
This may help other soul avoid making the same mistake I did.

Hello,
Can you please give us some technical aspect's towards the device you are having problems with?
For example,
is it international or an USA device?
Did you flash any custom ROM's with kernels?
Where did you find this kernal that you've flashed?
Are you on Gingerbread, Froyo, ICS, JellyBean? (Operating System)

i flashed this file(YP-G70-Kernel-r14.tar) i found it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20750550&postcount=1
no i could not flash any rom unless i loaded this kernel (that is if i understood right what i had read on here)
I was trying to flash from gingerbread to ics but i kept getting E: failed to verify whole-file signature so i went and researched and i understood that i had to flash a new kernel first

No you shouldnt. To make everything clear, the USA Samsung Galaxy Player has capacitive buttons. The international samsung galaxy player has a physical home button with capacitive menu and back buttons and that is one thing you HAVE to do is read the forum to see if it is compatible with your device. I understand that you are a noobie at this. There is a certain odin that will only work on our galaxy players the last tine ive read. Only Gingerbread roms (not including cm7) will have camera support. If you dont care about the camera, try cm10 when you get your kernel fixed. Please though, read what you have to do before you flash your device.

I have been trying all day to root this bad boy. After finding nothing but broken link after broken link I finally found <cm-10.1-20121229-UNOFFICIAL-p4wifi.zip> and <cm10.1-20130116-UNOFFICIAL-p4wifi.zip> I am stuck at this point because I don't know which to use and well, quite frankly im a noob. ive watched a couple videos and even talked to a guy who rooted his but, i'm unsure about where to put this friggin file. some people say to have my tab in usb debug mode while others say to the contrary. some say to put my tab into odin3 while others say to have it in recovery mode but the one consistency is that they all say that its simple and "noob proof". Well with all the contradictory methods i've researched the one thing ive concluded is that for a noob it really aint that easy to sort through everything ive found and realize what the hell to do. I really don't wanna brick this frigger so this if anything is a desperate cry for help.
Long story short, I have the files which one do I use and what do I do with it?
Sincerely, Nooby McFirsttimerson

There's nothing hard about rooting if you want to flash a custom ROM on your tab, 99.9% of the developers pre-root their ROM's so you dont even have to root it, so did pershoot.
Step 1: You start from zero: you have a gt-p7510 STOCK ROM on android 4.0.4, if not, flash the ics bootloader from droidbasement.com via odin in PDA slot.
Step 2: go to droidbasement.com, and it depends which android version you want to flash, 4.0.4, 4.1.1, or 4.2.2, let's say you want do flash android 4.2.2, download clockworkmod recovery 6.0.3.4, flash it via odin in PDA slot and reboot your device.
Step 3: once you have cwm 6.0.3.4 flashed, connect your tablet to your pc and get the latest nightly version, YOU DON'T WANT TO USE EXPERIMENTAL BUILTS!! Since they were only ment for pure development and they could be very unstable. Download the latest version here http://get.cm/?device=p4wifi here and copy the file over from your computer to your device. DO NOT FORGET!
Step 4: reboot your device into recovery and do a factory reset, go to your 0 folder in recovery and flash the latest nightly built. ( a factory reset via cwm will not delete data on your SDcard
Step 5: reboot your device again when it's done and wait up to 10 minutes.
And last but not least step 6: enjoy!!

In Odin, there is a PDA button. Click it and select your file.

Get your tablet in download mode, it's the same way as you go to recovery, but then the other image on the right side, your tab will warn you that flashing other software may cause problems on your tab and blabla, just ignore that and push yes. Connect your tab to your pc and open odin, while it's connected, your pc will look for a driver i think. Once odin is opened, select PDA slot and search for the recovery safed on your computer, then hit the square box and make sure the box in front of'PDA SLOT' is check with a 'V', now it will flash cwm on your tablet
So i have to have odin on my pc?

Why do people always feel they have to run to customs roms? To me that is like saying to somebody who asks how to change a wheel on a car that first they have to remove the engine and put in a supercharged version instead with all the added unreliability that goes with it.... Custom roms are great but sometimes when answering a question the sledgehammer to crack a walnut approach is not the best..... if you are happy with stock rom to start with try rooting that first then if you want to go further try the custom approach
If you just want to root a stock firmware then all you have to do is install clockwork recovery using odin and flash a root zip through recovery.....
Root file is here for you and if you go to this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=44527963#post44527963 there is a good version of odin for your tab and drivers (if you haven't already installed them ) that I recently posted
As long as you are sure it is 7510 you have then recovery for pushing through odin is attached as well
I cant have root permissions after flashing CM 10.2 (I accidentally did full sd card data wipe with twrp 2.6.0.0 before) , now none of apps that request root works..I tried to flash older superuser.zip files but that didnt work (when trying to flash superUS v1.50 zip it always writes ''failed')'. Any solution to that?
Try installing SuperSu from play store, see if that works otherwise if that doesn't work go to android development stickies for this forum' download root.zip and try to root again through recovery

Ok.. being as you're new to this.. I advise you to watch QBKing's video on rooting this device, really any of his rooting vids will show you how to install odin/drivers and then to Odin the custom recovery...
If you feel unsure after watching the video or have any questions... just hit me back and I can walk ya through it..
Don't be worried if I don't see you're reply right away.. I'm on my way home from vaction and my service is less than spotty.. ( thanks sprint )
The video was enlightening to say the least. However the thread at ac syndicate is now closed. Sooooo im wondering if there is anywhere else i can find the necessary files

I have been trying for a whole day. I have used files either from other posts in xda or other sites. Still I could not root my 7510. I have finally successfully rooted the tablet with the files in this post.
Thanks a lot!

Glad it worked ! :good:
If anybody else needs the files to root or a link to qbking77 video....look at my FAQ thread....everything needed to root is there, minus the Sammy drivers( you can get them when you plug you're tab into the PC )...
Also...do yourself a favor and as soon as you root...go put infamous twrp recovery on the device..I have flashed every single ROM I've put on my device through this recovery...no problems yet...Lol.

Edit...this is for p4wifi only on stock 4.0.4
Copy them where on the device?

Where do you copy the step 3 files? I can't even access the file directory on the tablet for more than 1-2 minutes before it resets. I flashed the step 2 files (no change), and having trouble knowing where to but the step 3 files and how to access the target directory. Could you clarify for me? Thanks.
BTW new user and can't "post"urls so I had to delete yours from the reply. sorry.
