lol @ Samsung. That's NOT what usually happens when you're rooted. There's quite a large percentage of us that are rooted with zero issues...shame on them for not replacing it.

Anyway, are you sure you were *only* rooted? You didn't try to flash a ROM or mess with partitions?

And it's vol down + home + power for recovery. Did you pull the battery first before going into recovery?

PS - don't bother with fastboot, this device does not have fastboot enabled, only Odin. You're not gonna get a response that way regardless.:(

Yes. Tried that. There's only 1 Verizon PIT file I found anywhere. Would a different PIT file work?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FreaKaDroidXYZ:
I know, I've been rooting for years, many Samsung S3, S4, Note 2 and 3's. But I wasn't gonna argue with the low-tech rep when she was gonna let me send it in. I was hoping for a motherboard replacement but that did not happen.

Yes, I "only" rooted. I was just about to do some more because of other issues (like the power button and the locking up first thing in the morning) when this happened. I never expected anything I couldn't undo via recovery or ODIN or something I can find on XDA...

I've tried VolUp+Home+Power, VolDown+Home+Power, VolUpDown+Home+Power, just about all combinations, always with a battery pull. It always goes to the Download mode... I cannot get into Recovery. Tried all 4 of my USB ports with a few different USB cables. Tried my Windows 7 laptop and my iMac.

I had the same issue, try the steps below:

If your able to go into recovery factory wipe everything (if not go to the next step)

Flash the pit file by itself,

After flash is successful reboot and go straight into recovery, wipe everything

go into download and flash the stock firmware

If this doesn't work also re-download the firmware and pit using a windows PC, I've had issues with Macs download the correct file... Hope this helps, I had the same issues as you, in the end I had to re-download the software and follow the steps above, took me two days to fix the problem but it ended up positive.

Also delete and reinstall your drivers, from time to time they get screwed up on PC. If you want feel free to send me your phone and I will test for you, I've been around the android world for a long time and have f up my phones/tablets many times but never had a hard brick.

Sad to say my Galaxy note edge is dying too with this problem. I can still reboot and use at times but it freezes a lot now and reboots,oftentimes i get this message too. Ive been rooting since mga galaxy s3,note 2,note 3 and this is the first time ive encountered this. Ive been using kitkat(downgraded as the battery life sucks on lollipop) for a few months, the longest ive been using since I use to flash roms every now and then and one day my phone just became sluggish,freezing,rebooting at times so ive decided to reformat first and re-flash kitkat without rooting then update through OTA. I also did a safemode, installed only essential apps. I also noticed that it took so long to get to even stock recovery. And one thing it get stucked on this mmc error message so what i did what flash the boot.img from the stock rom. It did booted fine but still the same issue im afraid the phone is dying soon :( been taking care of the phone(got no dents or scratches) thats why its so sad that theres nothing I can do if its a hardware issue this time :( maybe il move on to try non-samsung phones. I wanted to try oneplus two this time maybe. Actual choices are oneplusx,nexus 5x,oneplus two.

OMG... i to have the exact same problem with my note edge. The problem just started about a week ago. i've had my phone for over a year now. Never had a problem. I've tried everything, even bought a new battery.... but of no use. Could it be somekind of sammy timebomb.... which forces us to buy a new phone (the latest model)?? .... conspiracy theory :)
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] W@r10ck:

I'm on the sprint note 4 having same problem and error. having trouble even getting in download mode, luckily I got in to recovery and cleared data. I then went back in download mode and it took me about 30 tries to odin the ok1 tar for sprint note 4. finally passed. hope fully its not a hardware problem. I will keep you posted and let you know if I have anymore problems.

Edit. I'm still having issues even after using odin to flash the newest tar. It must be a hardware issue.

Hello everyone. I've got the same exact issue with a Note 4. It started as a lag before I did any rooting and now it's constant. I can still boot some times normally or in recovery but, more often than not, I get to download mode with a ddi: mmc_read fail notice. Is it certain that it is hardware issue? Any suggestions on how I can check it?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ssl3vin:
...because battery???

I have same problems on note 4 ... sometimes but and freeze while i using it, reboot and then ddi: mmc_Read failed.

Sometimes I flash rom success others fail.. I bring my phone to a guy with and he tried to flash by a box and the flash was ok but i got same problems.

He said that could be also a battery becouse he tested it and the voltage is more hight than normal :eek:. But i dont think so that the problem is that. Anyone of you can try another battery?

Its a software issue. I had the exact same issue with my T-Mobile version SM-N910T. I was able to resolve it by using ODIN to install the EPE3 along with the modem of COD6. After the phone restarted I placed the phone in download mode again and from there went on ODIN to install the EPE3 modem. After the phone restarts it should boot straight to the home screen.

That could easily be accomplished while still putting your response in the correct forum.

Just quote the post, copy that, and paste it into a new post in the correct device forum. Then somewhere in that post put an '@' sign in front of the handle of whomever you are responding to like this:

And they will automatically be notified of your post.

That way other TMobile Note 4 owners would presumably see your post as well. Problem solved and you've potentially helped more than just one person.

I installed a new battery on the phone, my phone model number is N910G, its Note 4 LTE international variant. Dont know if it will work for others too. After installing the new battery i tried about 5-7 to flash to stock rom but failed. What i did was i removed the battery reinserted and went to download mode, with CF autoroot i rooted my phone, installed TWRP recovery and flashed N910G_OL2_N5P_DrKetan_ROM_L16G.zip this custom rom.

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] jpradley:
I'll bet Verizon has tens of thousands of HTC Ones on the shelves of thousands of stores and warehouses that came off the assembly line over the space of dozens of months and having various versions of the software.

I do not think that Verizon pays any employees to open all those boxes, charge the phones, update them, and reseal the packaging. So you get whatever comes to hand at some shipping location.

The question that was asked was what did people get shipped for software versions. People responded with answers based on recent shipments so the OP can feel hopeful about not getting a phone that can't be unlocked. I'm not really sure what your answer provided other than sounding a bit snarky.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] zeropally:
Might have sounded snarky but what he said is true. Most of the phones are already made and sitting in a warehouse. Even ones made today more the likely are still being flashed with old firmware and Roms as converting the systems used for said things cost time and money they don't need to spend. Only time to worry about getting a phone that's been updated is if you get a refurb. Other then that it shouldn't be an issue
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] selayan:
It will depend when on the manufactured date. If it was recently shipped to the store, say a month ago, most likely you will have a previous software version. But even those that sent theirs in for repairs, some of them came back with 4.3, others didn't. If you are getting it brand new unopened from a store or from Verizon, there is a sticker on the box. The software version is on there. For example the guy I got mine from is pretty much brand new, the box says 1.610.10 but the guy must have wiped it and updated it to 4.3 before he shipped it out.

Before swiping your card look at the software version on the sticker of the box. If it starts with 2.10 then you don't want that one.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] sleekmason:
Howdy, I plan on rooting my tablet in a few days. The instructions say to root, then, flash stock recovery. Is flashing the stock recovery necessary if i plan on using goo to install twrp recovery prior to flashing cleanrom on my device?

Also, the cleanrom thread says to flash the appropriate version of twrp. Am I to assume the latest version on goo is the ticket for that?

Also, while the dev has indicated there will be further versions after 1.2, can I expect to simply download updates, or expect to flash new versions every time? I guess this particular question doesn't really matter I'm just interested.

And finally, has anybody used heimdall with any success with the p600? Google says no...

I would have posted this on the clean rom thread but was not allowed since I have not had enough posts yet. moving this to there would not hurt my feelings.

I appreciate any and all help and of course feel appreciation and give thanks to the developers who have put in such great effort. Thank you.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] grmcrkrs:
That's a lot questions! Lol.... here's two answers:

If you want to flash CleanRom, then you don't need to root your stock rom, just use Odin to flash TWRP and that will either let you install CleanRom or let you install SuperSU (root). You can the recovery from their website.

I'm on the P600 and the goomanager didn't install the recovery correctly, so I had to flash with odin.

I don't know about Heimdal. Good luck on your ten posts:)

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] sleekmason:
Odin eh?

My understanding is that root is neccesary to flash twrp. If that is not the case, they why use Odin at all?

Heimdall is a program reverse engineered to work on Samsung devices. Potentially more stable than odin. Open source. I use a linux box but will have access to a windows box in a week or so.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] sleekmason:
supersu

Furthermore, for verification, super su does not root your device, it only manages the permissions of those programs that need root access. Can somebody else chime in for verification?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] grmcrkrs:
No, you CAN flash recovery without rooting, and if your not rooted then TWRP asks if you'd like to install SuperSU and root that way. I guess you don't have to believe me though

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] sleekmason:
that sounds great but doesn't TWRP need root in order to be installed? my understanding is yes. If not I should be able to install it using Goo manager. from what I've read the developers for GooManager are very serious and would not allow a non working application to remain in their program.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] Scott:
You wont need to root if your intent is to just flash my ROM.

Appropriate version would be 2.6.3.3

As far as updates / patches... Depends on the issue. Mostly do full updates if something changes. If its a bug fix then I would just do a patch.

Hemidall? No, never tried it.

Basically to flash a custom ROM you just need to flash TWRP using Odin then flash the ROM using TWRP.

You dont techincally need to root unless you want to stay stock and have root. But that is no fun!

Also, the goo.im app does not work with this device so you have to use Odin manually (for simplicity).

Hope this helps!
