[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antique_sonic:
kostin_000,

I know how stress you feel now.

I've experienced things like this, whereby I can't flash any of stock ROM. But my case is because I did a full wipe in ICS using a kernel.

I've followed the method from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1667886, and I've succeeded.

First of all, before you choose which pit file to use, you have to find out :

what is your storage size ? 16GB org 32GB ?

please choose the correct phone storage size, for the pit to be able to work.

If yours is 16GB, then download the : pits_N7000_16GB.zip

if yours is 32GB, then download the : pits_N7000_32GB.zip

Once you have downloaded, do extract the zip files. Each zip got few patches for you to do repartition on your phone.

Mine, I was using this file : Q1_20110914_16GB-patched-regain-0102400-kB.pit, and I can continue back to flash stock ROM on my phone.

In simple words, the file I choosed is actually to block certain part of the phone storage, so, there should be no files written on the blockage part.

In very simple words, you will loose 1GB on your phone storage, because this part will be marked as a bad sector, and be blocked. :)

And you can use the rest for your ROM, your files, etc...

- Prepared your phone, put under download mode.

- Open ODIN PC

- Choose the pit, based on the patched which you need to regain.

- Choose the firmware which you need to flash (PDA, Modem, CSC)

- Check ON the Repartition and restart (reboot).

- Connect your phone, wait till it connected.

- Press Start.

The above steps was the one I did to my phone. If you dare to take the risk, you may try.

Otherwise, just send your phone to samsung center. :)

i don't have kies installed (or ever).
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kostin_000:
Hi, I have the 16gb version, but i tried all the pit files from that post and still nothing. Odin says that write command fails (no matter what i wanna put in the phone - rom, kernel).

I gave may phone today to a friend that works for a phone company, cause he said that he may be able to repair it. I'll keep you (all) up to date if any miracle happens and how it happened. Meanwhile, i wanna thank you all for ur time and the trouble, so thank you very much.

Will return in 1-2 days with the news.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kostin_000:
Hi all,

As a first result of the diagnostic ran, my phone lost the data from the nand memory, if this helps on my problem.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] forest1971:
Hi,

It is not clear from your message if data loss mean there are problem with data partition? if yes then you can use standard patched pit from hg42 and it should work. Still, from your previous posts you seem to have problem flashing any pit files from hg42. in that case then you may want to try my manual method in the link here. GL.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kostin_000:
no, no, no. it's not working with any pit :((((

would someone like to try with teamviewer? maybe i'm just too stupid to do it myself :(
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kostin_000:
I took my phone to a phone service center (not to Samsung yet) and i was told that a emmc (and another H... thing starting word) memory or chip is affected in a strange way that they couldn't repair my phone not even using the riff jtag thing. I was told that only at Samsung's service i MIGHT have some success repairing the phone.

The result of this fact is that whatever i try to flash stops at 5% (of what, i didn't understand).

Any ideas? or it's the Samsung service (and from as far as i heard, this job will cost me around 300 euro). :(

Thanks all for your trouble helping me :good:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shoey63:
I wonder if Adam Outlers UnBrickable mod would get ur note to a stage where u can flash a pit file?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kostin_000:
at this point, my phone, doesn't even turn on...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kostin_000:
I took my phone to Samsung's service... i'm waiting for the repair and the cost. If anyone interested, i can post what exactly what they discovered.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shoey63:
Phone wont turn on so bootloaders hosed. No way for them to know about rooting, flashing etc. I reckon they will just replace Motherboard. Let us know how u go....
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asian_boi:
Sry to hear that. But if they are replacing the motherboard your're probably going to be charged with a hefty bill. Do you have warrenty???
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kostin_000:
[Solved]

Hey there all :)

I got my phone fixed (at Samsung's service), it cost me about 300 euro; and the repair was, replacing the motherboard with a new one; my phone works ok now... So i have a spare (the old one) motherboard, that i think one of you guys can fix it....

Cheers and thanks all.

Erik’s phone has died. As a member of this community I'm trying to rally support to get Erik a phone that actually works.

About 3 months ago I created a thread to help Erik get a phone after his last one died. The seller misrepresented the device (imagine that). The functionality was limited and it had a short life span. Hopefully we will achieve a better result this time.

This is for the SGS4g community and has nothing to do with me on a personal level. I have done some testing in the past for Erik due to the limits of what is now a paperweight. I have absolutely no affiliation with Team Kick Ass/Team Fah-Q or its affiliated affiliates.

If you are able to help, cool. If not, cool. I’m sure everybody would if they could. Erik will keep us posted on the price of a phone and where we're at.

Current ROM’s for the SGS4g:

IMM76L

Slim ICS

Xperia Arc S

Miuiv4

PROVISION

Miui-Revenge GB

TapasOS

MokeeOS

LewaOS

JoyOS

SCOM

Thank you all.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] GFX.myst.:

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
WTF guys where are all the donations. How many of you are using one of erik's roms?

If you're using one throw a dollar his way. One single dollar. He can get a new phone locally.

I'm chatting with him on IRC right now and he's got a really nice surprise coming for you guys! If you can help get him the phone it'll speed up development time tremendously.

EDIT

Kyndig66, would you mind changing your OP and thread title to make it clear that we're trying to get donations to erikmm? Adding a donation amount and goal would be awesome too! The first time I read the OP I didn't even know that that was the point of this thread because there's so much text in the OP.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Kyndig66:

I love how you think saying no offence completely negates any insult that comes afterwards but that's a battle for another day you anus-chewing douchcanoe . Now If you're being completely serious (and have the power to make that decision) I'm OK with that deal. The 18th is the magic day so I'll need to have the money by then(the earlier the better and I'm ready to send it whenever). The phone is rooted and in excellent condition because I use a cover for it. Just tell me how where and when I should send it.

I swear, you kids these days have it so damn easy.

My 7 year old nephew has a galaxy nexus and his 12 year old niece has a galaxy s3. I own my own business, and I didn't even get my first smartphone until 6 months ago well in my late 20s to run my business on-the-go, and it's the sgs4g. What the hell does a 12 year old need with an s3? I can't even afford that, and her parents just got it for her, no biggie.

What's worse, another one of my nephew who's 8 got an asus transformer prime, his 7 year old and 3 year old brothers each have an original asus transformer. Their parents are about to upgrade them to the asus transformer prime as well.

Again, you kids these days have everything. I just talked to my sister yesterday. She's the mom of the 3 boys with asus transformers. You know what they're planning to get for their kids' christmas presents? 32" led tv's to put in each of their rooms.

You kids don't know what how good you have it.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lonoguge:
Yea..us 19 year holds are pretty childish but you get what you get in life. And to be fair, shouldn't technology make our lives easier I admit its disconcerting at times but don't be like every generation before you and hate change. That's just ignorance so just change with the times before you turn into a grumpy old Blabber that hates the new generation. Those have always existed and have always been ignored.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] daothanhduy1996:
Heh, good to see all these donations can reach Erikmm :p...I had this phone by saving money for a year (not parents tip every morning lol...my own money) and erik, who inspired me to porting stuff heh...you are still my sensei erik...thanks alot and thanks all donators, too :)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] pisherthefisher:
I don't think he's hating, he's just saying they have it easier than they think and should appreciate what they have because past generations never had so much high-end technology available to them.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lonoguge:
How do you expect kids to have that complex way of thinking! They grew up with the technology and it's an integral part of them and you think they're truly capable of analyzing and comparing current technology to past technology? Do you wake up happy each day not having to use a typewriter or ride a horse to work? No because electronic keyboards and cars have become your standard of living which means you want science to improve on them rather than subtle for obsolete stuff. It sounds selfish on surface but technology only improves if there's a demand for it to.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] uniron81:
I will gladly donate come Friday whether needed or not. I love the ROMs you port. In the Chicago area there are some stores listed that are asking $125 and people that are asking about the same.

PM me if there's something else I can do for you.

Keep us posted.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] 95Z28:
I think his biggest point was that so many kids have all this technology handed to them, not the fact its technology. And I agree with him, I'm not much older than you say you are and growing up most of my friends just had **** handed to them. Oh your 16 here's a car, want a nice phone, merry Christmas, ect....

Me, I have what I worked for and never had anything handed to me. And I always had a different mentality than most brats my age due to that. So yes, I am blaming your parents.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lonoguge:
I kinda had to work my ass off to get my phone so whatever.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eollie:
Then you should understand how frustrating it is to see kids get this kind of stuff and they expect to get it not earn it.

Its not about the technology but the fact the parents are giving it to kids younger and younger. And it creates the sense of entitlement.

Highlight to view post.

I don't know what part of my post gave the impression that I'm against technology. On the contrary, I love technology.

What I was talking about is the fact that some kids these days are having everything handed to them. Again, my 8 year old nephew got handed a galaxy nexus and his 12 year old sister got handed an s3. Look up transformer prime and transformer infinity, because that's what some of my other nephews and nieces are getting.

I've met some spoiled brats in my life time, and I do not want my nephews and nieces to be them. I've had to work for everything in my life. We grew up pretty darn poor. In 5th grade, I was down to one pair of pants that didn't have rips all over them. The kids at school would make fun of me for wearing the same damn thing everyday. Saved up for another pair of pants there.

If you've worked hard for your phone, then you of all people should appreciate what I'm doing. I think because we grew up without anything, my brothers and sisters are now over compensating through their kids. And I don't think that's the best way to go about it.

Eric, why not take logue on his offer?

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lonoguge:
I guess I misunderstood what you were saying, I thought you were talking about not wanting kids to have high end technology. You're right, they shouldn't be handed a gs3 for no reason but that doesn't mean it should be out of the question. Let them do chores or get a children's job ( sell lemonade) to "buy" the device they want. I guess what I'm saying is that kids shouldn't have a tech age limit as long as they work for what they get.
