Hi!
I have the samsung galaxy note i717, a few days ago the phone shutted down by itself while i wasn't ussing it, it read online that it was too much apps. i did the soft and hard reset and i had the same issue, so i read the next step was a factory reset. so i did it, and wipe the cache. after that, the phone started to reboot/restart by itself while i wasn't using it or wasn't charging... i did the factory reset, reboot it and even reinstalled it the firmware again on kias, but, the problem keep happening. today i left it charging for a long time and the phone won't turn on, it doesn't even show the battery logo, no download mode, no safe mode, no reset mode... and i think it is hard bricked. i read about jtag, changing the motherboard, or use a jig... i want to know what u guys think about this... i bought it on ebay and i would have to return the phone otherwise, so i'm trying to fix it by myself...
ty :fingers-crossed:

I've kinda seen comments that jtaggn is like pretty efficient but you would have to do alot and jign plug tht thing and c if it will wake it up. Sometimes works and sometimes doesn't depends.how bricked the note is i guess a more direct app is jtaggn

I've read a few posts where some users have issues with the power button sticking..
Try different USB ports on your PC if you can access download mode your still good.

JTAG is for a phone with the rom from another phone flashed to it. You can't enter recovery and Odin doesn't recognize it. It is the only way to bypass the boot and flash the correct rom.
Jig is for phones that won't go into recovery by software or buttons.
I think you have a battery issue. Trade with someone, then you will probably need the jig ($3.00 from ebay) to get into recovery.
well guys thanks a lot! but, i took it somewhere and the dude changed the battery nothing hapened and he told me i should just return it and i did. i loved that cellphone!

Ouch! ..sounds like a hard brick, you may need to JTAG. Connexion25 does it. You can try download mode via jig. You can go to radio shack and make one or buy a nice tidy one already made.

I thought I had this with my captivate. I found out it still powered on by turning it on in a dark room and noticed a faint glow. Then I was finally able to get it into download mode with a jig and reflashed

What were you trying to load? Unless you were flashing something with bootloaders (WHY????), this should not have happened.
Kind of a loss here. I have a At&T Galaxy note that I rooted and put clock work recovery mod on.
I accidentally downloaded a rom for the SGH-I777 not 717, and tried to flash in CWM. Now my phone wont even power on. Am I totally screwed?
Can you get into download mode or cwm from the powered off state?

If its less than 30 days return it.. That's probly your only option.

Yea I agree with him if you can get into download mode you can odin to stock reroot and get cmr and install custom rom

The answer to everything is not 'get a replacement'. The guy above asking if download mode is accessible is spot on.
Provided you can get in there, reflashing a stock package for the i717 isn't impossible and should restore full functionality.
Best of luck
You can always try the Samsung Jig, it still works on my Note.
All im saying is if it won't turn on how can he get in DL mode? That doesn't make sense. Some say jigs work and some say they don't..

Download mode is not only if the phone powers on.
there maybe other things going on. the DL mode is a completely valid question. and i hope that he can.
a jig may work as well, i had luck with home made jigs from resiters. with about the 301 of resistance. but that was not for the note.

The response from above is a legit one....just because you cannot turn screen on dosent mean you cannot enter download mode.....try wont hurt any thing..juat out of curiosity hold the power button down for like 20 seconds, will it vibrate?

I need help I flashed my phone with I777 firmware and there's no life on the phone is this how easy my phone can go the painfully thing is that I'm in Nigeria I have a usb jig will try it wen I find it jtag I don't know were it can be done in Nigeria God please help me out of this
Yeah you wanted an i717 ROM instead if you can't get into recovery or download mode you have a hard brick and JTAG is really your only option. If you have access to a computer try Odin or kies as a last resort but I'm pretty sure your bricked sorry.

Did you read all the posts in the thread?
Can you get in in download mode? (hold volume down and press power)
If can not get in download mode, No one can save you here. The usb jig is your only hope you have. Or send it out to get repaired.
If you flash the wrong rom your phone needs JTAG service. You can send it from Nigeria using DHL and pre-pay the JTAG guy at www.mobiletechvideos.com. The JTAG is $50 but I don't know the shipping cost.

Hello to all. I have a problem that seems quite serious and I do not know what to do.
Basically, I tried to install on my phone firmware Mozilla Boot to Gecko, through recovery of kernel siyah v5.0, doing a restore of the file found on this page: harjunpaa.fi/B2G/
Of course, the firmware, which is in pre-alpha, is full of bugs. Among these, during calls, my partner could not hear my voice.
I then decided to run a deep clean to go back to android. So I went into recovery and I noticed that I had ClockworkMod 5.5.0.4, which is indicated on the first page above to perform the restore. So, instead of proceeding with the deep clean, I tried again to do a restore through this recovery.
The process actually lasted a bit 'more time than the first, and I thought then that I was doing the right thing.
Finished everything I restarted the phone, but nothing. Black screen. Then I removed the battery and tried to turn it on normally, but nothing. The phone does not even go into recovery or download mode. I also tried to force the download mode by inserting the jig key, but still nothing.
At this point I find myself with a brick that will not start in any way and do not know what to do. Of course, before I do this, I loaded the battery to 100%, so there is no danger that it is unloaded.
Please, I'm desperate, help me.
Sorry for my bad english. Thanks.
JTAG repair (if possible) or service centre. Can't see what else you could possibly do given you're getting absolutely nothing from the phone & you've tried a jig.

What is JTAG repair?
Its about £150 cheaper than a mobo replacement.
Do you have warranty.

I think your problem was that you had your phone discharge. My problem, unfortunately, is far more serious.
If it cant start(in any mode),and you have warranty,then samsung will replace the mobo.
i have warranty, but i have the phone rooted, so don't know if I can use it. however I have reset the counter with triangle away.
Send it to Samsung/authorised repairer & see what happens.

if I send the phone to samsung and I can not take advantage of the guarantee, do they warn me before repair?
If you removed the triangle and did a counter reset, then they can't do anything than repairing your mobile phone. What reasons do they have for refusing repair? Rooting files on your phone? Well they can't look up on what you have stored on your phone, you know, data privacy and stuff...

I'm sure it was operator error because I downloaded the FoxHound ROM on the phone instead of to my computer first. So when I went into recovery to flash it, the file wasn't in the root directory, I wasn't thinking.... I just flashed it from the "Download" folder after wiping the cache. No, I forgot to do a factory reset too and I was running CM nightly before.
It appeared to flash ok with no errors and rebooted. It started to come up with the Foxhound logo and such then went black. Dead, nothing. I pulled the battery, waited a few seconds, replaced it and still nothing. Someone help if it's possible or just tell me to contact Sprint for a new phone. When I plug it into my computer I get the tone sounds from the computer that indicated an unrecognized device and nothing pops up, not the usual sounds of a recognized device.
Thanks !
wipe data from recovery and you should be good to go. it's a soft brick, nothing to worry about

How do I go about doing that when I can't get the phone to be recognized on the computer and the phone itself is unwilling to even power up or do anything. I literally am looking at nothing. Any suggestions would be GREATLY APPRECIATED.
Volume up/home button /power on,all at the same time this will get you into recovery mode where you can factory reset , if that doesn't work you may need a jig.
Edit . Just read your last post again , is it totally dead even after taking the battery out , no charge led. If so then the motherboard has failed and you need to read the sudden death thread in general, mine died three days ago .

Yeah, I've tried the volume up /home button/ power combo with no luck. What in the world is a jig and where do I get one? And then how do I use it? Thanks guys!

Hard to say but I doubt it , mine died three-day ago and was like yours totally unresponsive nothing at all worked even a jig , a jig is a tiny usb that plugsvinto the bottom of your phone and gets you into recovery if you softbrick your devise they're only about £2. If your phone was bricked in anyway it would power up but get stuck on boot up but as your sayings totally dead then I think it is dead.sorry.

Yeah, it's not a pretty site. I have no LED's, nothing. Boot to recovery does nothing, normal boot, nothing. I've left the battery off for a few minutes, still nothing. Looks like a new phone may be in my future....
Well, sorry I misunderstood you
Hi everybody.
I was playing with my i777 and flashed a gallery file (just 1 apk) via CWM. It booted fine but crashed when using the camera and then rebooted. After reboot, it turned off and now I cannot turn it on again.
I tried download mode by removing battery, holding the two volume buttons and connecting to USB. That did nothing. I also tried USB jig which also did nothing. Connecting the phone to AC power source to see if at least the battery charging screen will show up also does nothing.
So the screen remains black with the soft buttons not lighting up. My phone is hard bricked from the looks of it. So my question is will sending this to MobileTechVideos for JTAG have a highly likelihood for unbricking or should I save the $50 and USPS charges and just buy a Nexus 4? I mean if they don't fix it, I will need a new phone anyway, heck I don't even have a spare phone.
Previous ROM was CM 10.1 03062013 nightly.
I don't even understand how that could have resulted in a brick...

I don't either but like I mentioned above. It rebooted ok after CWM flash then hung then android rebooted. It crashed then won't respond to jig, USB, power cable.
I failed to mention that I am afraid that this is an EMMC failure and that they might not be able to fix it and I would be wasting $50.
You say you tried Download mode, but made no mention of RECOVERY. If you can get there you're not bricked.
