Help! N7105 cant wipe cache or install - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II

Hello everyone.
Phone Samsung Galaxy note 2 gt n7105 T mobile UK
So this morning my phone was working fine and while i was playing a game my phone literally just went dead, black screen and then stuck on galaxy note II screen.
So booted into recovery which is Philz touch 4 (had it on there for a few months so cant be more specific)
And i figured i would just do a wipe and reinstall.
But now i cant wipe cache just get error formatting /cache!
So i thought i would try just reinstalling a rom, i was using Jedi x2 rom previously so i went to try installing that, and it started to install then goes blank and reboots back to galaxy note II screen.
rebooted into recovery to check log and i get this.
I : Checking for extendedcommand & OpenRecveryScript..
I ; Skiping execution of extendedcommand. file not found
I : Using /data/media for /sdcard
w : Failed to mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p16 )invalid argument)
I :Skipping execution of OpenRecoveryScript, file not found
E : Cant't open /Cache/recovery/log
E : Cant't open /Cache/recovery/log
E : Cant't open /Cache/recovery/last_lo
E : Cant't open /Cache/recovery/log
So i thought i would just try and install stock rom via odin which failed

Bootloader i think was fairly new, i dont know how often they update them (thats if you mean the philz touch thing?)
As for the rom, i got the lastest from SamMobile but they are classed as EE and not Tmobile ones so its possible thats why i have an issue?
Im a bit of a noob with the way Samsung and roms work. Was no problems with my old HTC.

You will have to download the exact firmware for your device N7105 and flash it using odin.

Your phone is on the 4.3 bootloader, do not try to flash older 4.1.x firmwares they are going to fail.
Did you try emergency recovery using KIES ?
You can also try to flash the using ODIN v 1.85.
I see that stock ROMS for N7105 on sammobile are region specific, I am not sure if flashing a ROM of incorrect region with fail but try to download the one for your region.

I dont know anything about KIES to be honest.
Ill look for a download of an older odin and try that.
As for the Roms on sammobile, i have been using the UK ones but the ones for EE since EE took over t mobile / orange. It seems thay are the only ones available

So i just found this thread on Kies
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2261153
Is this what i should try? i dont want to try it without knowing its what i should be doing.

Yes.
Remember if your phone can go in to download mode then it can still be recovered, just need to find the right firmware.

Ok well so far i cant get odin to install anything. I either get an error after NAND as mentioned previously, or it gets stuck on set up connection.
Possibly a ROM/Firmware issue? but i have tried 3 different ones from sammobile all for EE UK as i cant find specific tmobile anymore.
As for what my phone can do at the moment.
It can boot into Philz touch but will reboot if you do anything like format cache/system/factory reset etc.
And can also put it into download mode with menu + volume down + power.
So i guess ill try that KIES thing and then see what happens.
If you have any other advice for me i would appreciate it.
And also thank you for your help so far

Since you were using Philz recovery did you take a full back up ? If yes, can you try to restore it ?
If Philz is not responding as it should then try flashing Philz via ODIN.

I had made a back up previously (a few months ago) and tried to install that via philz but it wouldnt even read the file.
Also tried to reflash philz via odin and it fails.
And currenctly im having issues with KIES finding my device. It just doesnt seem to want to connect to it.

So i also just saw this while trying to get a backup to work.
E: format_volume: make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p13
Error formatting /system!
Im guessing something is pretty corrupt since i cant format cache or system

ok if your trying to install via the KIES software you need to be i download mode not recovery . once your in recovery mode should start seeing your device and start installing drivers or drivers might already be installed and it will ask you for device model number and serial number and will download the current OS and install . i had the same issue as you did and recover my phone via KIES hope this helps

I have been in download mode but KIES wont connect to my phone it just sits on connecting to device for about 10 mins and then says to reboot the device. And then does the same again.
Even tried a different cable and that didnt make any difference.

I flashed an EE firmware 4.3 over H3G 4.1.2 using old Odin. Works fine but you lose all internal data
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA Premium HD app

Im thinking it is a storage problem.
Since im having issues with cache,storage,data formatting.
I read on a thread somewhere i could have to install some .PIT?
Is there anyway to do a kind of full wipe with odin or anything? and then be able to reinstall everything such as partitions?
Those could be really noob things to ask, but im not really much of a "pro" with the phone side of things, just thinking along the lines of regular storage systems being corrupt.

The last ODIN log you posted shows that it failed while flashing sboot.bin which is the bootloader. I think that was when you tried to flash the older firmwares.
Here is the PIT file for N7105 but I cannot assure if it work or not as I have a different phone SGH-T889.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2137008
I do not think the partition table is messed. I still think flashing the correct firmware via ODIN should get this fixed.
Few other things to try:
You can also flash CF-Autoroot for N7105, it comes with stock recovery and then you can wipe data and perform a factory reset from there.
http://download.chainfire.eu/255/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-t0lte-t0ltexx-gtn7105.zip
You can try flashing TWRP or CWM via ODIN and use then wipe the cache.

[Q] How to return to stock ROM and Recovery Galaxy Grand i9082

I recently root my Galaxy Grand (thanks to chotu222) and flashed it with k2wl's ROM and are working great.
However, I want to know how can I revert this to its original recovery and ROM that is same as brand new. Just in case for warranty purposes.
I hope someone can help me and guide me.
Thanks!

I have rooted the phone with CWM.
Tried to revert back to stock ROM.
But I am stuck at setup connection in Odin.
<ID:0/006> Odin v.3 engine (ID:6)..
<ID:0/006> File analysis..
<ID:0/006> SetupConnection..
After this it fails.
Do you have any solution for this.
Does this mean the firmware is locked?
Later I upgraded a custom rom - XXAMD6 on baseband ZNMAMB3.
But the problem now is Radio is switched off. So the mobile is not active.
When I try to make a call it says Flight mode is activated. But really flight mode is switched off.

Hi, can you please elaborate on this?. In ODIN do I point to the firmware file directly under the PDA section and flash?. Or do I need to extract the firmware file and point to PDA, Bootloader, CSC etc separately to the extracted files?. Please help and explain your suggestion in some more detail. I have rooted and installed CWM. I wish to go back to the stock Android Recovery. I already know the process to UNROOT. Thanks in advance for your help.

[RESOLVED] Flashing SGH-T999 back to stock ROM [FAIL!]

It shows my Current Binary as: Samsung Official and System Status as Official, but it won't boot the phone. At this point I'm stuck without a working phone and I don't know what I can do from here. I know awhile ago I got some custom ROM to load on it a long time ago, but I wanted to go back to stock just so I could start from scratch.
Resolved By
Installing Clockwork Mod Recovery 6.0.3.0 using Odin v3.07.
Loaded a firmware update specifically for an US SGH-T999 onto my microSD card and booted into ClockWork Mod Recovery using the options to install via an external SDcard.
Brought phone back into download mode and used Odin to install STOCK ROM (T999_UVDLJA) for my phone found on this page here.
Try again
also download things from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1949687 I've used it about 3 times in the last week while attempting to sell this phone I can not for the life stay stock for more than a day lol.
Havent run into this before, at least not that I remember.
It looks like everything flashes fine, but after flashing system.img it has
XmitData Read
XmitData Fail
Not sure what that means. Does it appear to completely flash the system portion? Or does it fail at the beginning, or middle of it?
If it finishes flashing system, then its failing at the start of tz.mbn. if that's the case, Can you boot into recovery? You could try flashing the LJC or MD5 firmware pkg available in the dev section. Then try to reboot. Ill try to find the link in a few. If it won't reboot go back in recovery and flash a stock rom and try that.
Does it happen every time at the same point? Maybe your computer is starting into a power saving mode and killing tge connection?
As mt3g said, try again after redownloading the firmware. Make sure you are using Odin 3.07. If kies is installed, get rid of it.

It sits there on the last item <ID:0/005> system.img.ext4 and then about a few minutes Odin shows the rest and it displays FAIL in bright, pinkish red.

That sounds like you have the stock recovery still installed.
Use Odin to flash the latest CWM to your phone. Flash exactly the same as you would the firmware in Odin. Just make sure you download the .tar file from my downloads page.

Ok good! Now try to flash a stock rom. Any rom should do, but I say stock just so the build.prop and everything is right for your model. Up to you if you want to try something different.
After that, if you want, try flashing the firmware with Odin again. If the problem was on your phone, hopefully all of what you just did will solve it.

Hello,
I had pretty much the same problem, couldn't install stock ROM through Odin. Followed these steps, installed latest CWM recovery, then flashed firmware update, it installed successfully. BUT after that my phone won't turn on.
Please help!
Won't turn on as on you get nothing? Bootloops? Vibration? Did you remove the battery?

Hi, I am in a similar situation and I am new in all of this.
Suddenly my SGH-T999 started to reboot in a loop. So I googled it and find this trend. I already tried to install a stock firmware using ODIN but always I get an 'aboot.mbn' error :crying:
I can enter in download mode but NOT in recovery, so I could done your first point (Installing Clockwork Mod Recovery 6.0.3.0 using Odin v3.07) but can't complete step 2 because I can't get into recovery.
Any help??
Thanks!

Go the route of Cyanogenmod. They have an automated walk-through installer that will get you at least a clean OS to work from. Only caveat is that you'll need Windows to run that installer.

Go the route of Cyanogenmod from my PC? And sorry, can you explain in more detail about the caveat thing. I just google it, but I didn´t know it.

I don´t know if I understand correct what do you mean. What I've done is download stock firmwares and tried to flash it with ODIN, but throws me an error (aboot.mbn error). I read that perhaps if I charge my battery to 100% I can enter in recovery mode, but I won´t charge it with my cellphone in this status.
Thanks!

[Q] Can't flash stock rom through Odin, phone only boots in download mode. Help!

I tried to get help through reddit to no avail. My GS3 can only start up in download mode and nothing else works. I have the proper drivers installed on my computer, yet every time I try to flash a stock rom (which I've made sure are for the T-999 model) Odin fails at the NAND write start! part. I tried using the GS3 Toolkit to flash a stock rom but it says I need USB debugging enabled, which I can't enable because my phone doesn't start up in anything but download mode. What do I do?

What was the last thing you did before this happened? Any idea what caused it to not be able to boot normally? How about recovery? Can you get that?
Are you using the USB cable that came with the phone? Try other cables?

I was trying to get CWM on the phone but it didn't work, and I was stuck with only being able to boot in download mode. I have tried other cables and other computers, no luck. I can't get into recovery mode, only download.

You said you tried to install cwm. Cwm is a custom recovery. How did you try installing it? I suggested trying to flash it in Odin by itself.
First, please tell me where you got the cwm recovery, and how exactly did you try to install it?
If your inability to boot normally started after trying to get cwm, ill need to know where you got it and how you tried installing it if I am going to be able to help. Please include a link to the file and any instructions you used.

Ohh boy!
Did you not read the entire page there? This is mentioned in the main body and also in large italic letters immediately following the article,
"This hack and the guide below are compatible only and only with Galaxy S3, model number i9300. It’s not compatible with other devices. Check your device’s model number in: Settings » About phone."
That is the international model. Ours is not an I9300. Ours is SGH-T999. Flash anything for the I9300/I9305 and you are destined for a hard brick. Yours, while not a total brick due to the fact you can get into download mode, is pretty much in the same boat as the other guy who posted in this thread and started his own. Basically, you probably flashed cwm recovery to a non-recovery partition, and system apps to a non-system partition. The trick is figuring out what partitions you overwrote. Probably ones that are not included in the stock firmware.
You need to find out what partitions hold the System and Recovery on the I9300. (ex. on our phones, System is on mmcblk0p14 and recovery is on mmcblk0p18). if their system is on p7, for example, then you would have flashed apps to our boot/kernel partition. If their Recovery is on p2, then you would have flashed CWM to our SBL1 partition which is not available in the stock firmware. It is possible to also mess up the partion layout this way as well.
If I get the time tonight, I will try to look up some of this for you and the other guy, but I may not be able to help much with this as I've never had to actually perform this kind of fix. I know what needs to be done, just not positive I know how to go about it. I can make very educated guesses, but with stuff like this, if I guess wrong, it could end up a little worse!
I suggest you take the info I just gave to you and do a lot of research. If you want guaranteed results, go to www.mobiletechvideos.com and see what they offer. They are the only ones I have ever seen anyone on this forum report using, and everyone who did was always very happy with their service. There are other shops you can find online that do this type of work, but Ive not seen any others mentioned around here. Not sure about prices either, so its up to you to research all of that type stuff.
In all honesty, I would look into a repair service to see what they can offer price-wise. If its cheap enough, I would seriously consider using them.
Good Luck man! If I can come up with anything, Ill let you know. And if you want me to try to help with actually fixing it after we have more info, I can do my best, but keep in mind you may have to wait until I am freed up enough to focus on it and I will not promise any kind of positive results! Others may reply with more info during the day tomorrow too, so you may also want to wait to see if anyone else has anything to add.

[Q] Need help with N7100 (stuck in screen Firmware upgrade encoutered an issue etc.)

Hi Guys,
I need help with my N7100. I already read a lot about this problem on the internet and tried a lot of different things, but here's the problem.
My phone was every time removing my external sd card, so I thought I'll reinstall it and put a new rom on it. I installed Omega Rom, but had the known Wifi connection problem, so I flashed the wifi fix with Odin, but accidentally used the bootloader instead of pda option in Odin (because I misunderstood the instruction on the Omega first page). Eventually my phone sometimes froze and decided to try another Rom, Dr. Ketans Rom. The same problem existed, so I tried to flash the 'original' bootloader (one I found on this website). The problem was still there, so I tried it again and Odin said failed all the time after that and I couldn't start up my phone anymore, because it goes to the screen: 'Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again.' I can now only go to download mode. After that I wanted to use Odin to flash the stock rom, but it gave an error with the pit file, so I found a pit file on this site and flashed it with Odin and than I could start up my phone again. I still wanted to go back to the stock rom, so I used Odin for this the latest version N7100XXUEMK9_N7100PHNEMK2_N7100XXUEMJ9_HOME.tar. I bought the phone in the NL, so I'm guessing this must be the right version, but it could be an international one (product code). During the flashing process it failed and since than I have the same problem again that I can't boot up my phone. I tried it maybe 50 times now and every time it keeps failing (in download mode). I tried 3 different cables, all usb ports, computers, odin versions. The weird thing is that the flashing of system.img sometimes fails in the beginning and some times when it is almost finished, that's why I thought I might just need 1 lucky strike, but after about 50 times I want to try something else...
<OSM> Please wait..

Thanks for your reply. I spoke to someone today who suggested the same thing, so I will try this tomorrow.
Ok, at least I got philz recovery installed and pushed (adb) the rom file on the internal storage and installed the rom. Ditto Note 3 this time.
Still the same problem exists, it freezes quite often. I was thinking it must have to do with flashing that wifi fix accidentally as a bootloader in Odin. Does anyone have a suggestion how to solve it? It also looks like it's using a lot more RAM than before, maybe because of that or something else? Might be the reason for freezing up all the time?
So I changed back to Android 4.1.2 and the problem seems to be solved :s. Looks like my N7100 can't handle Android 4.3???
(I am using phoenix and dn3)I have faced this error 10-12 times while flashed different mods/roms, I just hold the power button and rebooted. This can be just ignored like this and nothing to worry about.

Thanks for your reply, but I think you mean that it freezes during the install if I'm correct? But what I mean is that everything I do with my phone, no matter what, it freezes, even after reboot all the time. I can try now that it is back to normal to put a new rom on it. Do you reckon that Phoenix is better than DN3 since you are using both?

Hi,
Even I am facing this issue since I flashed MJ5 bootloader and NA1 based ROMs. Any idea how dangerous it can be ? Why it occurs ?

Alright so I might have traced down the problem, only time will tell now, just installed DN3 again, but before that I flashed MJ5 again, but this time not as a Bootloader (as what I thought and did before) but as a PDA (like a rom file) in Odin. Maybe you did the same??
Till now DN3 is working, but just installed it so see how it goes.

Which means you did the same as me, which was wrong. That must have been the problem than. So just flash the MJ5 file in Odin as a pda/rom file.

So I first went back to Android 4.1.2 and than the freezing stopped, so I thought the freezing up must have something to do with 4.3.
I also first thought it would make sense to use the option bootloader in Odin as the MJ5 file is a bootloader file that you are flashing. I found somewhere on this website that the MJ5 has to be flashed as a PDA/AP in Odin.
So I flashed the MJ5 file again as a PDA/AP file in Odin, than reinstalled DN3 and now everything is working like a charm
I also experimented and came to conclusion (as yet) that this problem is due to NA1 base. Currently using MK9 based ROM and all good.
Tried rebooting, recovery, flashing for many times and all good (as yet). Fingers crossed

[Q] S3 will not get past Samsung Animation

My girlfriend installed an OTA update and after install, it got past the Samsung screens then goes black and seemingly turns off. I have tried flashing several stock and rooted roms from XDA verified developers. I tried initially flashing CF-Auto-Root, it flashed successfully but no change in symptoms. The other stock ones I've tried same up as invalid or failed the flash. Any other ideas on this? Any help is appreciated.
Are you running the latest TWRP or CWM? What errors are you getting when the custom ROM fails?
I had two galaxy s3's AT&T both got an update
yesterday both got stuck in ATT logo boot loop
saying updating then failed but, recovery is unable
to launch the only thing usable was odin mode.
There is no stock firmware to fix it. I would bet
its the same issue.

***UPDATE***
After a lot of work, I not got it to boot, but now it's saying there's no sim card in it. Is this a modem issue?
What rom did you install? The aboot.mbn error tells me you were flashing a rom in Odin that was trying to downgrade the bootloader which cannot be done.
What modem and bootloader are on your phone?

Honestly, I'm unsure on either. Is there a way I can figure out what bootloader I have? If I can figure that out I think I can get it from there.

Nevermind, just wiped cache and it worked. Booting..
While installing CyanogenMod it came up with 'Insert SIM card'. This SIM has been tested in another phone and is working in another phone. Note that it does not explicitly tell me that I am not on a wireless network or that SIM is missing other than the initial setup. Does CyanogenMod flash a modem with it's package?

I would try flashing the two things he recommended. that seems like it would get you past boot. However it sounds like your phone may be in a slightly different situation since mine is not rebooting in recovery/download mode.
Cm11 does not flash a modem or bootloader.

Can you boot into cm11 or any rom? If you can and your rom is rooted, download and install the samsung info app from the play store, run it, and make note of the modem and bootloader.

I'm having issues downloading anything in Cyanogenmod. Doesn't have the google play store installed.
