I don't know mate ...

I wanted to do this test because I see around the brick to give your kernel ....

Now I can confirm that your kernel is not to blame ....

unless is magic my Gnote ;)

I believe that all users who have bricked, should write operations that have done really .....

if the fault was it your kernel, my notes should be bricked
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] angelom:
After flashing the kernel, you have to go into recovery and press on reboot
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Chris X.:
via USB-Jig or with Angelom's "rescue" kernel?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] brockyneo:
hi chrisx my bat has gone flat i think and doesnt seem to charge
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Chris X.:
Sound not good! You need at least ~10%.

No way to buy another batt or talk to friends?

If your phone is hard bricked (like mine), there is nothing what we can do for you.

Im so sorry! :(

Lol at tying to brick phone.did u wipe data after install v1.2

galaxy note
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Chris X.:
Thats it! Do not a wipe!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] angelom:
He did a full wipe using 1.1 version (which also includes wipe data)

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=23376045&postcount=858

Chris you did not brick with 1.1?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] smalmagal:
Someone out there should be able to...it doesn't seem overly complicated to me, and right now this is my only option. I emailed Samsung, and they told me they can't service it here in the US. I have to take it to the country where I got it...wherever that is.

Edit: I guess it was made in Vietnam. :-/
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] smalmagal:
No, there was nothing inherently wrong with the kernel...and if you look back at the other 90 pages, you'll see why people have been having problems. When you go into to do a "wipe" on this kernel, /data or /cache, is messes up something with the partition tables...and at this moment nobody knows how to fix it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] smalmagal:
Sorry for all the replies...but does anybody know where to find a new motherboard for this phone? I know it's not likely, but it's worth a shot. I'm willing to do anything at the moment to get my phone back. It's been a week now, and I miss it dearly. :-(
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] kgvico:
For me, I didn't wipe actually, I just tried to restore my /data from my RR ICS V1.5 backup, and then things mess up.

---------- Post added at 05:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:03 AM ----------

I contacted them, and got the same answer, they said they are only trained for US phone, not for imported phone.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] smalmagal:
Yeah, it's pretty crazy man! I was pretty calm about this whole thing when it first happened, now I'm starting to get really pissed. I still spend hours everyday trying and hoping something will work. I'm trying to negotiate with Samsung customer service to see if they can hook me up with a new motherboard, because I am capable of changing out one of those, whatever the price may be.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] kgvico:
Yes, it's crazy and unreasonable, shouldn't international warranty included US warranty,anyway, seems like US is not included in the world in the Samsung case.

About the motherboard, someone mentioned is cost about $300 if you are not covered by the warranty, in that case even the parts is available here in US, its too expensive, consider an Used Note is only about $500 in the market.

:cool: I just got my note for about a week before I bricked it, been flashing customized OS for about 4 yrs (start with WM 6.x), this is my first brick.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] smalmagal:
True...I was then thinking about going to AT-T and getting that version Note on contract for what...$250 now? That's not too bad..but that also means termination fees from T-Mobile (what I use now)...plus insane data costs...and that equals out to the cost of a new GT-N7000. *sigh*
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] anilisanil:
Why dont your try JTAG it by mobiletechvideos or something? It should not cost you more than 60$ if you are in US.

http://mobiletechvideos.mybigcommerce.com/samsung-galaxy-note-jtag-brick-repair/

At least calling them would be a good start, what say?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] chasmodo:
It has been tried by many, including angelom himself, and it didn't help one little bit. This particular brick proved to be to tough for JTAG to fix it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] angelom:
Not exactly so, JTAG has not worked on my Note, but my Note had an hard brick different from everyone else: I had flashed a kernel that reformatted partitions.

So it is said that for other phones will not work .....
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] smalmagal:
I don't have a hard bricked phone. The phone needs to be COMPLETELY wiped of EVERYTHING and repartitioned properly...not the kind of wiping that can be done through CWM either.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] chasmodo:
Here is what two other users had to say about JTAG attempts after the brick:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=23321406&postcount=709

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=23323524&postcount=720

And that indicates that JTAG is not exactly a working way out of this problem, at least not for everyone.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] alesscam:
But probabily you havenot read my old post....

I have make Full wipe with Angelom kernel also

Sent from GNote with Topa...... talk :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] kgvico:
Not really though, seems in my memory only angelom has reported the JTAG didn't work for him. No other people mention their results from JTAG yet.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] anilisanil:
@Chasmodo: @envyofindia whose phone we were helping to recover was among who bricked, samsung restored his phone through JTAG.

The advantage that people with Intnl Note in US have is that, they could send their phone and if it cannot be fixed all they have to pay is 10$ processing fee. I feel it is worth the gamble.

Update from my side is that, Samsung was unable to restore it using the JTAG (mine is soft bricked with download mode working). They finally agreed to replace the motherboard under warranty. It had been a tough deal for me as initially they refused to honor the warranty. Will collect my Note later today!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] angelom:
you said well, not for everyone. But this does not mean that others can not work
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] anilisanil:
Well that was me, I was later informed that JTAG might work, updated it on the thread. But as updated above I was again told that JTAG did not work. With so much of U-turns I do not believe Samsung, I am not too sure if they even did anything to restore using a JTAG, I was just informing what the service center told me, so I strongly suggest, one should at least try and see if it could be restored using a JTAG.

But then again its YOUR call. I suggested because that particular person is in the US and it is easily accessible for him AND he did not seem to have any other option.

@smalmagal JTAG can be used for hard brick ALSO, it is not a necessary condition for JTAG repair!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] smalmagal:
Where have you heard this? I emailed Samsung directly, and I was told that my phone can not be fixed within the US as it was manufactured in a different country.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] chasmodo:
Please guys, don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to take a piss in the bricked guys tea, or anything like that. I just remembered there were a few posts that said they had tried and failed.

I wish it did work for everyone who tried, and am sad that it didn't for some. :(

So, it ended well for you, glad to hear that.:)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] kgvico:
Yes, hopefully it will work for me, sent mine for JTAG service yesterday, and I think people are having different brick, I mean people did different things during or after the brick, and correct me if I am wrong, not everyone's motherboard got replaced by Samsung service right? I know it is for pretty much everyone, but still have one or two exceptions here, just hoping since I can't do anything more here in US.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] anilisanil:
You got me wrong. I was referring to the processing fee for the guys who do the JTAG support not for Samsung.

Samsung may not be able to honor international warranty in US but they cannot just say they cannot repair it if you want to pay.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] smalmagal:
Ah....so a JTAG might work then even for my soft bricked note. This is good news. I'll look into it. Thanks!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] kgvico:
He was talking about the mobiletechvideo.com.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] kgvico:
I think its not about pay or free for the repair here in US, the matter is that Samsung don't have any service regarding the intl version note. Don't quote me on this, I am not 100% sure.

---------- Post added at 08:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:24 AM ----------

Yes, I sent mine to them, just testing my luck by spending $10-$20, it is worthy.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] lorekarf:
ask service assistance to put in writing that they/samsung usa are not able to perform pay reparation of their own product

tell them you need this statement for your insurance

then with the written statement from samsung you can do an enormous scandal.....and at end i guess they will repair it.....

this is just crazy
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] eitama:
Has anyone who Installed :

1. ICS Repack with CF Kernel only.

2. Team Rocket Rom V1.5 with what ever kernel it comes with.

Bricked their Note so far?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] chasmodo:
The answer is no, they didn't. You can go for them if you want, it's safe.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] kromosto:
This is getting strange. I think there are hardware differences between note's which can be the only explanation for one of the part of the problem. And not working JTAG means nearly %99.99 kernel made a hardware failure which only can be with some voltage or speed settings of a component on mobo of the note. I start to get afraid of if hardware differences which can cause faults are really there final ICS release may be delayed or final release may cause bricks.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] lorekarf:
well as i have stated these many problems are likely to come from ICS leack who btw is not even for N7000 but for I9220....
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] eitama:
Thanks. I have been on them from the day they were leaked. I was just a bit worried since i had a few FCs and reboots yesterday, dont know why.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] alesscam:
yes mate .... this could be corrected ... This is why I keep saying that Angelom kernel has nothing to do ... and probably depends on a ics leak and few part of the Note

Sent from GNote with Topa...... talk :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] nico53laval:
Try and wipe data with the abyss 1.2 it shouldn't work. Atleast that's what caused the brick for me.

i like samsung more now. back on lb2 stock
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] nico53laval:
Wouldn't it be possible for any dev to fix the data partition? I need my phone and don't want to send it to samsung.. Plus I can't buy a jig so forget about the reset counter.. (I'm not putting the fault on any dev's shoulders I just think many users would be thankful if a dev could fix the issue.)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] gominolo2002:
Conclusion, To fix need replace the motherboard, can't revert... True?

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] androidindian:
I think the best is to give to samsung, instead of having sleepless nights. just flash a stock bootloader, kernel, modem and then pda/code, so that the phone shows firmware update failed, use kies for recovery and take it to samsung , let them figure out the rest. tell them your phone failed during kies update.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] alesscam:
Read well old post mate...

Angelom said:

"I flashed, of course, all the kernel, I installed with Odin PC the European leak, with the CWM RR14 and RR15, runs wipe data/factory reset, installed with Mobile Odin kernels, and never a problem.

In the kernel there is no code to edit partitions ....

I brick my phone, trying to find a solution to problem, to try a kernel where I have repartitioned the memory .... But this is just my problem"

Sent from GNote with Topa...... talk :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] angelom:
And the kernel was stock only initramfs changed, which were not released the source code, you can not change the voltage or speed of CPU or GPU or memory, so if there are differences on the tensions or speed there are also original.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Chris X.:
First, I'm so sorry!

Angelom and me had already worked on a reworked partition file but after that we both bricked our phones. (from soft to hard brick)

Angelom had the opportunity to get a JTAG box but it doesnt work for him.

I have no JTAG box and so I sent my hard bricked Note back to Amazon.de and I got a new. (hard bricked means = no screen, no charging, no adb, no dl/rv mode, there was nothing more)

What should we do now? Again to make a brick?

I know and understand it, many user are angry but sorry...

I'll send you a pm with the "reset kernel" by angelom. (/done) More I can not do for you.

:( ;)

btw If you want, so pls talk with !!!www!!!, he is a good guy and have a JTAG box. Maybe he can repair your phone but he and I cant promise something.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] saeed201:
Can someone compress the folder "sys" from a working Note and share it. The folder "sys" seems to have all the hardware related files like power, partitions, modules and others. I want to copy the folder to my Note and see if it fixes the problem.

The folder is not installed by the cwm roms nor backed up by cwm.

Here is the content of "sys"

Inside the folder "block"

when you go inside "mmcblk0"

and finally inside "mmcblk0p1" you find

each file contains the value assigned to its name. for example the file "size" would just have the size of the partition.

when it tried to adb pull the folder in recovery, most of the files were not copied so there might be a need to pull them individually.

I have a feeling this might be the key to solving the issue.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] angelom:
Do you want an hard brick phone?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] nico53laval:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] androidindian:
angelom, chris?

i want to ask you this.

finally got my phone motherboard replaced. but just to make sure and clear things..

does the i9220 kernel itself have an issue while wiping data? or even the cf repack kernel? or was it an issue with 1.1/1.2 itself? want to make sure before i flash ics again, sticking to gingerbread until i get a clarification.

going through this thread has confused me. :)

First I had full root on chinese leak. I flashed Midnote via cwm and root remains. Flashed imilka with redpill.

So I went back to Midnote (from imilka no root)via abyss (redpill) then I installed Mobile Odin and flashed cf-repack. Next I flashed back imilka again via cwm from cf-repack and root worked fully.

This was my way.

Now I'm back to square one. Hopefully flashing cs-repack ROM will help fix it. BTW did you format data/cache before you flashed either ROM?

Btw, I had the videoplayer from some stock ROMS and installed it into Midnote and it works great. Don't need the extra gallery now. Not sure if that's what you were talking about w/ video playback problem.

root on imilka v3

angelom

I lost root on imilka v3, but I could issue a adb remount then push the su binary to system and fix the permissions, after that my root is working without problems.

I also had to install Superuser.apk from market, the one from /system/app wasn't working.

The only problem right now is that I lose root after every reboot and have to push the su binary and do a chmod 06755 again.

If you can fix it that would be great, I will hack some init script to reinject su for now.
