After years of flashing roms (and lurking here, especially DrKetan´s thread), I hard bricked my brand new SM-N975F. When I power it on, it goes to the screen that tells me the bootloader is unlocked, then to a welcome screen, and that is where it stays. (see pics).

I have tried the following:

1) All possible hardware combinations. (I tried at least 100 times all combinations between the keys): always the same.

2) Odin3 does not detect the phone in either screen.

3) Samsung Tool 300K does not detect the phone.

4) ADB does not detect the phone. (adb devices comes empty)

I am about to get a hammer and wreck the little guy, but I decided to ask you first.

Any ideas?

[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] dk1965:
Thank you! I was on stock ROM (Q), with an unlocked bootloader. I was flashing TWRP for Android Q with Odin. It "Pass"ed, and when I rebooted it bricked. Tried every key combination, I can´t get into download mode and the phone is not recognized when connected to the laptop. Tried several cables, too.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] carlitobahsoun:
i think ur fault was when u let it reboot / u must after odin twrp forced to reboot to custom twrp recovery and do as i think format data , well never root my samsung mobiles 3 years ago , i advice u to be cool + send private msg to dr ketan to get help OR if u have telegrams u can join many group and i know u will get help.

iam out of telegram 1 years ago too so i dont know any groups for n10+ .

try first dr ketan by pm him and wait till anyone read here and help
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] ziotom2:
you should put the phone in download mode and reflash stock from odin.

reboot [down+pwr] when the screen shut down immediately put the usb cable in the phone usb port (the other already in the port of the pc) keeping the vol down till enters in download mode.

you cannot flash just the twrp partition, you have to flash the disable verity check as well. otherwise the bootloader dont't allow the bootstrap as the integrity check fails.

follow the dr.ketan instructions (carefully).

Thank you! I tried Dr Ketan´s instructions, but no matter how hard I try, I can´t get to the download mode. I followed your instructions but the phone does not go to download mode, it just shows the "bootloader modified" screen, then the other one. Odin (nor Samsung Tool 300K) do not recognize the phone at any time, not even for a second, so I can´t flash anything to it.

Sm-n975f hard brick - solved

I hard bricked my SMN975F by uploading the wrong TWRP. The bootloader was already unlocked, but the new TWRP for Q bricked it.

I solved it by sending the phone to a Samsung repair shop. It took them 24 hours (and about 70 dollars), but they were able to flash the bootloader, and the stock Q rom.

Moral of the story: if your Note 10+ is hard bricked, there is a solution. You can try the advice given to me above by these useful members, but if that fails do not toss the phone. Go to a Samsung service store, and they will be able to fix it. Thank you all for their help!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] carlitobahsoun:
happy they solve it but let me be honest with u , in my country LEBANON middle east i KNOW and more knowledge than SAMSUNG'S guys inside , some small questions they wasent able to answer....so u are lucky guys that in ur country they are good knowledge to fix....

happy new year and keep enjoy ur n10+
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] exocetdj:
You f##ked it real good but not a hard brick as far as I'm aware. (I may be wrong)

Hard brick is only fixable with a new motherboard.

Well done on getting it sorted and that's great service from sammy
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] PR_Grim:
I know you said you tried 100 times, different combinations, by any chance was this - Press and hold the Volume Up + Bixby / Power buttons. - one of them? It should boot into recovery mode not download mode. I had a similar issue, I had to try and try until I was able to get into recovery, from there did wipe data/factory reset several time, and then select reboot to bootloader, then flash the latest firmware(since you probably wont know which booltloader you have on it). Also remember to used the recommended Odin by the XDA team.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] Andrewtst:
Try following alternate way.

- Turn Off Phone, if unable to turn off, wait till battery drain and off itself.

- Press and hold the Volume up and the Power keys at the same time for 3-4 seconds.

- This will bring you to Recovery Screen.

- Use Volume Up and Down Button to Navigate and choose Reboot to bootloader by pressing the power button.

- You are now at Download Mode.

Note 10+ SM-N975F/DS very very HARD BRICK --- Advice?

Thank you for your feedback. I had tried that, but the recovery screen did not come up. The method you suggest will work for most cases, but in my case I had screwed up the recovery itself by flashing the wrong TWRP.

Moral of the story: do not flash the wrong TWRP, because it may corrupt your recovery, and then getting to download mode is a lot more complicated.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] dk1965:
I agree with you, real good. It may not be a complete hard brick, as the repair guys did not open the phone nor changed the motherboard. Still, it was as bad as a soft brick can get....

As far as I know, Samsung Smart Switch is the only method to recover your phone. Download it on your pc. Launch the app and connect your phone. Choose to recover bricked phone.

I bricked about 8 different phones with the new A/B thing before I learned TWRP doesn't work and the fix was to flash the stock boot.img to both partitions with:

Sm-n975f hard brick - solved

Guys I solved it. I pressed Volume down + Power, as soon as the screen turned off I quickly pressed Volume up +Volume down as I inserted the cable and voila! Download mode. Now I can reflash stock firmware

That was a very close call.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] centaur31:
hi,

know this is old but am surprised that no one mentioned the way we are supposed to get into download mode. we are supposed to turn it off and then hold both volume keys down and plugin the USB c cable with the other end already plugged in to the PC if it doesn't work let it turn on and remove cable from phone then press vol down and side key as they call it and be ready with the USB c cable as soon as it power down immediately press vol up and volume down and plug it in and it should work..
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] centaur31:
Hi,

FWIW none of the methods above are the correct ones to get into recovery mode which is why you couldn’t get in.

The Combination is simply shut down your phone, hold both Bol up and volume down and plug in the cable the other end must be plugged in into your computer

If you can’t shutdown then press vol down and the side key and hold 7 seconds it will reboot, as soon as it turns of quickly hold both vol keys down and plug in the cable. Speed is of the essence here as it is a very short window between shut down and startup in which you have to insert the data cable.

Let me see if plugging in the cable when charging does the trick too I’ll try right now and post in a few minutes. I am adding this here because people will search for the stuck on boot screen and come here and will get the wrong info given here to no avail. No one has mentioned this here, so I thought I’ll do my bit to lessen some of the heartache when your $1000 plus device isn’t working when it is hardly a month or a few months old. Mods can delete this if it is superfluous. This info is given in other topics here but this one needs it specifically.

Ok doing it with the cable plugged in the charger doesn’t work
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] dk1965:
My phone is fully functional now. I tried your method, and it works. I do not know if it works when the phone is bricked, but I can confirm that

1) Turning the phone off.

2) Connecting the USB c cable to compyter

3) Pressing simultaneously Vol up AND Vol down.

4) Connecting the cable to phone.

will boot in download mode. Thank you very much for the instructions!

Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Plus (sm-n975f) stuck in Odin USERDATA>userdata.img​

Yesterday evening, after downloading the official firmware from sammobile.com, installing the samsung driver, activating OEM Unlocking and USB Debugging mode, I started to flash the firmware with the latest version Odin. It gave md5 error while loading the AP file on Odin. When I searched on the net, it was said to just delete the md5 extension of this file and try again. So I did that and the firmware started to load normally. When the green line was near the end, it stayed there for about 10 minutes. I was in a hurry too. I disconnected the phone from the PC so I could reinstall it at home.

But the phone gave the warning "An erorr has occured while updating the device software". Neither download nor recovery mode was available.

Smart Switch did not see the phone. When I tried to reinstall with Odin, the green line under the Odin USERDATA text got stuck towards the end, although there was no line or movement on the phone. No movement for 15-20 minutes. What should I do and what is the outcome of this situation? I would appreciate it if experienced, expert people share information. Thank you in advance. I am waiting.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] djshotty:
I just had a similar issue, where the screen was aqua blue and the text said words to the effect of "Software update failed" with an exclamation mark inside a white triangle. I connected to PC, run Odin 3.14.1, it recognized the phone, I then flashed just the stock Samsung ROM's BL file all by itself (with Auto Reboot checked) then it booted straight into the phone with no issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] pnjboyzz:
i am able to use the ODIN and install the OEM samsung rom but when it finish installing and try to reboot, my phone powered off. its not booting anymore. can someone please guide me how to boot the phone. there was some video where it shows i have to go into recovery and format " data recovery" even then my phone is not booting.

can someone please tell me which file can i flash to boot my phone.

thanks

Drywall is a wallpaper manager I built from scratch that was inspired by Google Wallpapers and Jahir fiquitiva Frames android library. I needed a wallpaper provider for my launcher as a default but i figured why make it exclusive? I tried making it as original as possible and built to stand its own over time.

Drywall has a few tricks up its sleeve as a Wallpaper Manager

-I have several categories to choose from as well as an exclusive Pixel Photography category that features photos taken directly from Pixels.

-The weekly featured category has over 400 different photos regularly updated and loaded from our good folks from Reddit.

-Each category preview tile is updated via the last image you previewed so the dashboard can give you alittle hint of where that last cool photo was you were looking at.

-You can select a photo from your gallery as a wallpaper.

-Drywall will list all the available wallpaper provider apps in your system (disregarding defaults like Google wallpapers)

-Users can search for hinted titles in each category

-Drywall will list live wallpapers available (Not available in Android 11)

-All images are rendered and managed Glide

-All images use a smart crop view powered by an new addon for Glide called Glimpse

-Images in the preview window allow users to inspect information about the selected image like color pallette, dimensions, author, sources sharing and downloading.

-Drywall allows users to Blur, reset and align their current wallpaper.

-Content is updated over the air

Enjoy!

I havent got a diamond yet, (on its way),

Just wondering if any one has tried to plug in a usb thumb drive into the usb port of the Diamond, and see if it detects it in the diamond as a drive.

This could be a good hack for someone to try if it doesnt detect it, as it could add extra storage.

Keep up the good work everyone

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BirdOPrey5:
So this isn't my phone, it's my sisters. Over a year ago after she first got it she gave it to one of her sketchier friends to use and it was out of her possession for several hours. She got it back and didn't think much of it until in upcoming weeks her "friend" ended up showing up at places my sister happened to be and a number of coincidences that were hard to explain unless someone had access to not only her texts but also somehow hear her calls.

I thought she was crazy but nevertheless checked her phone best I could, not that I am an Android expert by any means but I didn't see anything that stood out.

So over the next few months my sister and her friend had some big fights and for all practical purposes stopped being friends. Months went by without anything weird but then yesterday my sister was talking to a girl who is a mutual friend of both my sister and her ex-friend... My sister was still upset with the other girl and called the ex-friend some truly nasty things. Not that she should ever have heard any of this but...

When my sister woke up this morning for the first time ever her unlock code (which was a swipe code where you draw the lines) had somehow changed. She tried over and over it just didn't work. She ultimately got access back by logging into her Samsung account online and restoring access,

I;m at a loss, never heard of this happening, been using the same type of phones myself since they've been out and never heard of this happening before.

What do you guys think? Could her ex-friend really have been in control of this phone the entire time? Any place to look for it?

Hello,

i recently broke my XZP (shame on me). As repairing is too expensive, i'm looking for an alternative phone (as there's no Android 10 etc. it doesnt really make that much sense to buy an XZP again).

It's a shame that newer Sony phones have too much downsides.

XZ2,XZ2P,XZ3 have no audio jack & this ugly fingerprint sensor on the back.

Xperia 1 & 5 have an 21:9 Display which is (imo) a useless Format.

So any recommendations for similar Phones to the XZP from other companys :confused:

I have this problem also when using a custom rom for Zenfone Max Pro M1 (HAVOC, DOT OS), it will show Adreno 512 instead of 509.
