thanks for that. I run a repair store and want a permanent solution as I dnt want customer to keep coming back complaining about the repair. If all i could find out which chip or ic needs re balling or reheating I think i sould be able to fix it.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] logosA:
I can tell that you have the technical knowledge to do that as you seem to understand fast and exactly what is going wrong.

Users who had a final solution to that, were those who had replaced the motherboard (by warranty, or with their own expenses).

I myself can tell (without your knowledge) that a single chip or part must be the reason and not all of it, but I have never seen any specific report about that.

The only thing I have read is users going to samsung customer support and there to be replace the whole motherboard .

Same thing happened with users who bought second hand a board from e-bay and have it replaced by their own

New motherboard, seems to solve all the problem once and for all
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] ifixtech:
thanks for your reply. Well I have managed to get it fixed. I opened up the phone and started reflowing the chips one by one. When I reflowed the CPU and the NAND it started to boot and worked fine. Didnt have to used any of the Un-brick images or firmware restore.

What I have personally noticed is that the SIM/ Memory card readers are right on top of CPU and pressing on them probably makes the CPU lose a few connections with the motherboard. I think thats what was causing it. Thanks for your help.

SD4GB.WinDI.IMG (zipped size as zipx: 7 mbyte)

Hello,

I downloaded the SD4GB.WinDI.IMG file with my 1 mbit connection within at least 10 hours.

Why - the hell - do you not compress the image files?

3.74 gbyte will then decrease to only 7 MByte!!!!! ... *gggrrr* ..

Not all users have a 1.000 mbit internet connection .. damn! .. :0(((( ..

I have uploaded a compressed zipx-version of the SD4GB.WinDI.IMG file. You can download that file at:

Hi guys...

Shame :(

I flashed, in a minute of absence, with the twrp app a wrong file and now the screen does no longer work on my note 4 ...

I already flashed a stock rom - worked, but it does not start the android surface...

Also in the recovery the touch screen does not work!

I can flash a new recovery , but can't do anything with it because of no response of the touch...

What do you think?

Maybe i crashed hardware?!

Help is much appreciated!

HAVE yOU TRIED IT AFTER UNZIP, to check if it is still working? We have even made voodoo magic to our phones in order to make them work again, so maybe none tried to do that before, because first of all we dont think about it and second we are afraid to get away from the steps subscribed by op and people who made that.

I hope you are right about that, because it can save a lot of time and affords to next people who would need that

Hi guys,

first of all I'd like to thank the starter and the participants of this thread - I've read almost all of it and learned a lot. 2 of 3 Notes I managed to debrick and they run on wakelock right now pretty well (more to that maybe later). They all showed the same pattern. But then I bought a "bricked" one from eBay just to play around. It was dark, so I did the following:

- froze it for a few hours and it started. It started without any issue, no need for the image-SD

- installed the stock rom (btw. its a N910F in Germany), everything went well, except it showed a dead android and "no command" Text while rebooting once within the installing process. but after rebooting all went well

- wiped, formatted, repaired everything, installed the ressurection Nougat Rom, everything went well

- for one day and a few hours it was lightning fast. No lags, no reboots, no need for Wakelock!

- on the second day it just turned off and I couldnt start it again

- froze again over night, started... it started, but went off again

- put it on the main-charger: Shows (always working on wire!) charger symbol or/and reboots rapidly

- hm. Installed stock over odin again. Always installs until the first reboot well, then reboots and now I see every time the dead android with "no command" written there

- when phone is dark and I cant enter the download-mode or the recovery, it always works to put it on charger. then ,as I said, it reboots or just charges, I put it off wire and try to go into download mode. It works most of the times

- tryed to install a custom rom again. Managed to get through wit TWRP untill the end. But only with a fan put on full power. Without Fan it just wouldnt install on TWRP and truns off. After Install it turns off, when within the working rom or on bootscreen

- installed CWM-Recovery instead. It doesnt turn off on Rom Installing, but on Gapp-Install. Each time. Very weird

- sometime it said, that theres no Data-Partition or something, so I back into the recovery and format/repair. But the result ist still the same: Off while installing with TWRP, Off after installing with CWM

- And again: It always (!) turns on, when I put it on charger, but sometimes it reboots like hell or just shows the charging bar

- I've also tryed to repartition - no help

- and: it's not the charging-port, thats broken, because I tryed 3 different Note-Bodies for that board

I am really clueless on that and would apreciate any advise.

Thanks for reading

Hi to all.

I have secsesfuly unbricked my n910f and flashed stok rom but i have 2 problems

1 it boots only with sd card with unbrick image

2 after using few hours it starts to lag and rebooting flashed custom rom rr same thing

Any ideas

Sorry for bad english
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] vidmas:

#1 working! Keeped in freezer ~5mins, and after that I booted to recovery!

Unbricked with stock flashing via Odin.

[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] logosA:
welcome to the club ! its been 8 months now that I have used this thread and have debrick my 910f , too

Since then I am not able to remove the sdcard from my phone with the debrick image in it, otherwise the phone is dying again(cannot reboot, boot etc)

Also I am constantly using this app to keep my phone's CPU always on and prevent it to go to black screen of death when it goes to sleep.

I am afraid your situation is the same and you have to follow my example or buy and replace your motherboard for a total fix of your phone.

So, keep debrick sdcard in your phone

use this to keep your phone alive

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dambara.wakelocker&hl.

also consider using this app for reboot and not the phones keys, I have noticed its working better this way:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=simple.reboot.com&hl.

About rom,

stock rom seem to be working but only for a while, after a short period problems comes back again.

I would advice you to use a custom nougat rom, as it seems custom roms are playing better with our situation.

The first 2 choices for me are AICP and Lineage roms. I am not very fun of RR, as they pay more attention to customization rather than the stability and speed of their roms, but its always your choice in the end.

so:

Seems like I'm part of your club...lol :D

Edit: So if you have a microsd card like 32gb or higher, you can format the last partition to Fat32 format and use it store files. Only problem your computer will not be able to see this partition in windows. So any copy/paste will be a problem.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] logosA:
Thanks for that. I was always wondering if i can really do that, so now you give me the motivations to try it with a 32Gb card( i am using a 16 Gb card now). How should i format that last partition? With windows you would suggest or with sdformater? Any ideas about that?

I used a windows software called MiniTool Partition Wizard, but you can use any partition manager.

I successfully unbrick my phone but sometimes it crashes and shutdown. After taking the battery out and let the phone for about 5 min it restart... Is there any fix? Using a custom rom could help? I guess it's still mmc_read fail
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] zyro_cool:
worked

so. after some days, i managed to unbrick my 910F using the files provided in OP.

THANK YOU ALL, HEROES!

as i concluded:

1. phone has to be super cold to go into download mode. i used the freezer

2. phone won't boot without the sd card

3. i'm using a cheap micro sd hc 8gb, so it shouldn't be a problem. don't waste money on expensive grade 10 or even better 3 on them

4. if you reboot it, it may not come alive again. take caution!

5. i flashed all the files, including the pit file

6. after that, i managed to get into recovery and do a wipe data

7. the phone didn't worked from the first time after wipe

8. i had to freeze it several times before i finally got into the first setup menu, so don't rush, just be patient

9. i read all the infos 'till page 46. it's a lot of data...

IF SOMEONE KNOWS HOW TO FLASH IT AND GET USE ONLY TO THE MEMORY CHIP, WITHOUT LOSING MY ORIGINAL IMEI, I WOULD BE HAPPY TO TRY IT. i'm not afraid of going back to first steps.

It could be outdated MODEM driver all together with emmc failure

PUT YOUR PHONE IN THE FREEZER

Take a zip bag, take off your battery and sd card (if any)

put just phone in it and while sucking the air with a straw, zip it up.

Put it in the freezer for 2 hours (or in deep freeze -20 oC for 5 minutes)

in the meantime

download this (windows ) application and install it on your windows pc.

This is the application that will allow you to search and download the latest stock rom for your phone.

choose samfirm 3.06

extract it on a folder on your PC and run samfirm.exe

in the opening menu type

SM-N910P

REGION xxxxx(your country region)

PDA: ............

CSC: .............

PHONE: ......

nothing above, just tick auto

AUTO X

tick '' BINARY NATURE''

CHECK UPDATES > DOWNLOAD

THIS WAY YOU WILL GET THE LATEST REPAIR STOCK ROM FOR YOUR PHONE/REGION

Binary nature means the rom split in 4 files (REPAIR ROM as we know it)

this is what I just find out about N910Pavailable in samfirm, see image at the end

use odin 3.12.3 or newer (run as administrator)

Cold may do the trick. WHY?

Freezer keeps the CPU cool because overheating make the motherboard's contacts around the emmc to fail

( Samsung have put ram and memory together in a single chip and fixed it on a cpu so that CPU can access them much faster but the heat of CPU melt the connections of emmc)and so pass the data becomes impossible.

Have in hand BLxxxxx.tar, CPxxxx.tar that you have gotten from samirm and TWRPtrlte.......tar(your models propitiate)

Get to download mode.

Put BL and CP tar in the propitiate odin's slot. Put TWRP in AP slot.

Uncheck AUTO-REBOOT .

Flash them all together.

When odin mark as PASS, unplug your phone and wait for 10 sec

Take off your battery and wait another 10-15 sec.

Put back battery and press the combination to boot in recovery (HOME+POWER+VOLUME UP)

Wipe cashe and Dalvik

reboot system.

PS, if not working that way, freeze and try again , flashing the whole rom this time

(4 files together, with out the TWRP) and after done start all over again(twrp custom rom, etc)

Its not one time thing, you may have to do it again and again to work.

I usually have to do it 3-4 times until get it done

ps 2, if you prefer you can use Linux / Heimdall (your name says you are familiar with that) to get it done.

Thanks you man i will do it and will let you know the result.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] winnii:
Thankyou so very much. I had already phoned in the insurance to replace my phone, and 2 Samsung repair guys had told me that the motherboard is not worth replacing, as it is designed to self destruct the phone after 4 years or so. I started to get the same symptoms as everyone else. Crashing, phone call dropping out, overheating, buzzing,overheating, random apps opening, and having to take out battery, refrigerate it , or put the phone on frozen wrapped fish filet to keep it alive. Also, restarting the phone with all three buttons, to get a good reboot, was necessary. After the Samsung official phone support guy suggested that I factory reset it, the phone was indeed dead, with the Android guy looking stabbed and dead on the screen. Fortunately, before the reset, I had been able to get a backup, with the phone on the frozen object, as it kept overheating while doing this, and the battery was draining even though plugged in with usb while backing up. So, you are a HERO! You have helped me over come this nightmare! I am so grateful. I put the phone in the freezer for an hour, as directed. A few things didn't work though . I downloaded the recommended software Win32DiskImager onto my pc, then downloaded the recommended firmware from your site here for the 910W, but could not load them as an image file onto the Win32DiskImager App on my pc.

So I just transferred your unzipped files to the clean formatted sd card, with Windows cut and paste. Then I put the sd card into the dead phone,attempted to reboot it, holding down two buttons, and got the long message on the left hand side of the phone, and chose 'load from sd card'. So I did this individually with each file, even though the phone gave me a long error message with each file. saying it couldn't read it, that it was unrecognizable, starting with E: etc. I ignored that and kept going. After the last file was loaded, I selected reboot or restart, and HUZZAAAH ♪♪♪ It booted up, and I was able to restore the phone, mostly. It has an "N' on the top notification line, with a wifi symbol, what ever that means. I am still missing the Accuweather widget, and some of my Tidal Music downloaded files that are no longer available disappeared. However, who cares! The phone hasn't crashed today, and I think the phone function is working without dying. I will have a long yack on it tomorrow to test it. It even reloaded my old apk of Winamp. I am soooo happy. this has been such a challenge, as I am a bit of a geek, but more stubborn than smart. So I am hoping this fix will stay, and that it will overcome the crap that Samsung buried in the motherboard that is bricking so many phones.

Best wishes, Marilyn ( winnii )
