Dear all.
First of all, thanks for your attention, I really appreciate.
I have a GNote 10.1 Wi-Fi version (N8013) with stock Android 4.1.
My S-Pen was getting me crazy, because I was not able to use it correctly on the edges of the device. I tried an app that supposed to reset the alignment, but I did not work, so I googled and found that the only way to fix it was "factory reseting" the tablet.
So, I installed the TeamWin recovery and backed up my data. After that I hit the button "reboot". But before rebooting, the recovery screen "told me" that I was not rooted and "asked" if I would like to install SuperSU to get root access. I checked YES and rebooted.
After that I got stucked at the "Samsung Galaxy Note" screen (see attached file).
I've tried to switch off the note, but the screen goes off for one second and it lights up again at the same screen.
If I plug the USB cable and try to switch it off, the note goes to the battery charging screen. If I remove the USB and push the power button again, the tablet gets back to the "Samsung Galaxy Note" screen.
Odin seems to "connect" with the tablet.
I can enter both the download mode and the recovery mode (not the teamwin recovery).
Attached pictures of what I get.
Any sugestions?
Thanks!!!
Everything is ok now
Dear all,
Hope I can help you if you have a problem similar to mine.
I remembered that a PC with no OS stops on some screen, but everything else works, just as what was happening with my note.
I tought that I might have wiped more things than I should, so, the only thing I had to do was to restore the backup that I had.
To do this I should reinstall the TWRP and the only way was via Odin.
Solved the problem this way:
1. Downloaded the Odin (http://techbeasts.com/2013/08/08/download-odin-pc-latest-version-v-3-07/)
2. Downloaded the TWRP file (http://techerrata.com/get/twrp2/p4noterf/openrecovery-twrp-2.6.1.0-p4notewifi.tar)
3. Connected the Galaxy Note to my PC using the USB cable
4. Entered the "download mode"
5. Loaded the file from step 2 into the tablet using Odin
6. Rebooted the tablet
7. Entered the recovery mode (TWRP was working)
8. Restored the backup that I had
9. Rebooted again
Did the dance of victory!!!
I am so glad to have my device back.
Regards

PLease someone help me...
Thank you in advance
I have an SM-P600
My Note 10.1 2014 Edition is stuck on the tablet title screen, not sure if its in reboot mode it returns to this screen if I try to shut it off... basically Its frozen, and when I try to shut it off it goes away a few seconds and comes back. This happened after I rooted with KingRoot, and tried to Flash a ROM, Im a complete Noob and should have done my homework... but I didnt. I see everyone suggesting odin and going into download mode... I can get to download mode but I am using a macbook pro, and there are very little options to use odin, I tried Jodin3... and Heimdall... no luck...
PLEASE HELP !
HELP stuck on Samsung screen
I didn't any root or install a different firmware to mine.
But after charging it I removed the cable and it rebooted and got stuck on the Samsung screen. I can only access to Download mode. I didn't have any Recovery mode installed, and now I can't install one successfully via Odin...
I tried to install a new firmware... a recovery mode... nothing is working...
Please I need HELP...
@ agelcer: Was your tablet rooted?
Hello. I havea similar problem with my note 2 phone. It will not get past the
samsung screen. My cpu knowledge is very limited. Are you open to accepting payment for attempting to fix my cell phone? All I want is the pictures off of it if that is all you can do to it. Pleass email me at [email protected] if you or anyone you know can help. Thanks....Jay
Same thing is happening to mine. I tried Odin but after the download the srceen goes black and then comes back to the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 screen.
Hello folks.
Same problem here with a n8000.
It had the stock unrooted rom probably JellyBean.
Can only access Download Mode, nothing else.
I get connection to Odin, tried to flash original firmware, 4 file firmware, re-partition with pit file, flash a custom recovery, all seem to pass through but nothing changes, still stuck on 'Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1' screen, never moves on to boot animation and still can't access Recovery Mode.
However, something else I triy with Odin and it FAILS is ticking 'Nand Erase All'. It won't let me erase nand.
Could this mean some kind of memory corruption?
Does it have anything to do with EMMC?
If it does, is there a possible way to fix without replacing the hardware?
What else can I try before giving up?
It would be nice if other users who report this problem attempt to Nand Erase All and see if it also FAILS..
Thanks alot and sorry for the long post.
Edit: after posting I found this which is PROBABLY THE SOLUTION for me.
And here is another topic on this issue.
did you find the solution?

I assumed from my searches the solution would be JTAG or replace the EMMC.
Since I don't have the resources for any of those, I just abandoned it to the dust and rust..
bootloader
Is this after the boot loader is updated?

I'm not very clear about bootloader upgrading, but I guess it was included in the 4 file firmware I tried flashing and it said 'success' but nothing changed..
I think it ain't just a softbrick since I can't erase nand..
What's your background, osirisx69?
This happened to ours as well just today. Unplugged it rebooted it and it's stuck. Can only access the Odin mode.

Same problem for 3 months. Guys have anyone tried jtag flashing firmware as in this post which was provided earlier?
Welcome ladies and gentleman to my tail of how i ****ed up my phone. I have researched on possible ways to fix my edge but all so far have failed and possibly screwed me so i'm down to asking for any ideas, tips on how to possible "save" my phone. I attempted to root my phone via King-Root (already know a stupid idea). i forgot to turn off Knox security and when it tried to boot frp lock, and Kernel is not SEAndroid Enforcing. So i went into safe mode (idk whats the correct term for it) cleared all cache and tried to flash new firmware onto the phone, tired 3 attempts and all failed, now its stuck in an error screen reading "An error has occurred while updating the device software. Use the Emergency recover function in the Smart Switch PC Software. I downloaded smart switch just to see if possible it would take it out of the error screen and its not recognized by smart switch. I have heard the use of certain cables effects whether smart switch will recognize the device but i am using the given Samsung micro USB cable. ( I will also ask my dad when hes back if he did anything else to the phone that he didn't tell me about) I just want to know if i have anymore options to UN-brick it, whether it would be a good idea to see if i could get my warranty by destroying the phone or if its a lost cause all together and i should just sell it to at least get some money from it. Thanks for any feedback, it will be greatly appreciated.
Try to flash the correct rom for your device using windows 7...
If it boots in download mode (power button +home button+volume down button) then it should be salvageable. Boot in download menu and from there just flash a stock rom from http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/ via odin.
I was on my phone when suddenly it just booted off for no reason, weird right? So now it just stays on the "LG" boot up screen and now do anything. I've tried everything and done everything right (as far as I know) before I get into that let me tell you what my device can do as of now:
Devices DOES have fastboot oem unlock done
Phone was rooted as well and working perfectly (or so I thought until this happened)
ADB doesn't seem to work, but fastboot when connected to the computer does.
Ex: ADB devices (blank)
but fastboot devices (shows phone connected)
I've tried rebooting into recovery (Power + down) doesn't do anything, however, {Power + down} then finger off power then {Power + down} again takes me to "factory reset" option, if done so the phone just hangs and removing battery on way to take it back to fastboot on pc, or bootloop again.
I've done the following steps using [LG-H901] Stock .img Files (Boot, System, and Recovery)
Code:
fastboot flash system system.img
then
fastboot flash boot boot.img
and finally
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
I've tried booting the phone and still gets me stuck on bootloop, and doing the same {Power + down} gets to the same "factory reset" option only then freezes my phone if I agree to do so.
Is there something I've done wrong or incorrect? I will provide as much info as requested.
Thanks guys!
Update: Phone booted up to lockscreen after finishing "Android is starting..." procedures, then kept bootlooping and it is now doing "Android is starting.." procedures again. I'll keep it updated if it keeps doing so or anything of the sort.
Did you reply YES when trying to enter recovery? It will ask 2 times and bith times answer YES ... And if you DO have TWRP installed it will boot into twrp recovery.

This is the weirdest thing, phone worked for a bit then shuts off and does the same thing. all files and everyhing was in tact. ANy main reason behind this? I am desperate not to delete everything because i have important photos on there that were still there when it re-started again right now.
So to recap: At the moment doing the {factory reset} got me as far as using phone for like 2 minutes before ****ting out and sending me on a bootloop yet again.
Important Questions:
On all my other devices I am able to connect via usb and read devices, but on this phone I get the message when connecting to my computer "LGE Android MTP Device: Failed" whats this about?
Is there any way to save internal photo album images other than getting this to boot up and pray it stays on long enough to transfer data?
UPDATE 2: Phone has booted up and not froze (yet)? Testing to see if it will keep working so far so good. Unfortunately all my **** was deleted which bummed me out, would have honestly prefered to lose a $600 phone than all the family, friend, ext photos I had on my phone I made the huge mistake of saving to internal memory and never backing up. Smh.
Update 3: Phone is back at it again with the bootloop. I have no idea what is wrong, I've repeated the steps twice and phone doesn't seem to let up. It's fine until I hit that restart or shutdown button then it goes into bootloop heaven. I'm guessing this phone is done for? On an unrelated note it did fall on me, but worked fine afterwards, it was just sudden when it started doing this. Unless anyone has more suggestions I'd be glad to hear them. As of right now, this phone is toast.
You tube how to bake phones in the oven.
It could fix some potentially loose solders..or since everything was already wiped you should get a warranty replacement.. Should still be under factory warranty.

I am thinking the warranty route. Is there anything specific I should do before doing so? I hear having "fastboot oem unlock" {Bootloader Unlocked} voids the warranty. Is this true that you might know of? Either way thanks I appreciate the information.
Sorry so late..
But you can try to fastboot oem lock it.
Hey guys, I have some serious problems.
So after reading threads and forums for 3 days now, I still can't make my g2 work again. So the problem is that my phone, out of nowhere just turned itself off, and now is in a bootloop. I had that once before, I did a factory reset with the buttons, and it was working again. Now it happened again, but when I try to do a factory reset, it freezes, and doesn't do anything at all. I tried this several times, nothing. I want to say, I don't know anything about custom roms, ive never tried to do a firmware update on my own, or tried to unlock bootloader, so you know I can't even do any of these. I always left my phone's system in its factory shape. But still this happens to me, and I can't boot into download mode even, my computer recognizes my phone as an USB charge only interface. I read about lots of solutions, and i can't even do them because my phone doesn't load the download mode. I hold volume up, plug in the cable, it tells me to keep holding, and after 30 secs, it goes to something thats gotta be fastboot mode (the last entry is fastbootrocessing commands). I don't know anything about developing or what, so please guys help me
i own a zte quest (n817) which is very sluggish. i had it rooted and decided to uninstall a good amount of apps to help it run faster a few months back. it worked fine for the uses i needed it for (calls, text, few apps, wifi etc.) but i wanted to do a factory reset. after doing so from the settings menu, my phone rebooted and went through the setup but the home screen is blank (screenshots below). im thinking the phone didnt reset all the way and it also might still be rooted. i wanted to know what i could do to try and recover the phone in its original state.
things ive tried: im able to put the phone in stock recovery, tried an update.zip from a similar zte phone but wouldnt work. tried a factory reset and cleared cache from the recovery. when the phone is at the home screen, i can plug the phone up to the pc and see the contents of the phone. i can also put the phone in download mode. while in download mode, tried to run some adb commands so i could maybe use dd to flash the .img files but either the operation not permitted or it just did nothing.
im trying to find the update.zip for this phone because i think that would be the simplest option. other than that, any help is much appreciated
