I have a 4.1.2 android version of GT-N7100. I'm on an official rom. My phone is NOT rooted. Will a hard reset (by entering into a recovery mode, and factory reset) can brick my phone?
Is there any steps that i have to do before doing a hard reset?
I read a lot of threads and i get confused with myself about the SG-note being brickable.
EDIT: Okay nevermind. I will just patch a safe kernel and do a hard reset.
A factory reset will delete all user installed apps, and all settings will be returned to default.
Back up your internal sd card, phone and sms logs.

Since you are on JB it might be safe, but why risk it mate?
Flash Philz kernel and then perform all the wipes.
Good luck.

Mate performing hard reset on note 2 is all safe..the deal is u need to be on 4.1.2 since all roms based on 4.1.2 base are note 2 sds patched.
So u r safe.dont worry..I too reset my phone and its normal!

Personally I wouldn't risk it without flashing a safe kernel first.

Don't listen to this guy. Seriously. JB has not been proven safe By anyone. Flash Philz first.
That's like saying I did heroin and didn't die so u are OK...
Don't do heroin, and don't trust a Samsung ROM on this device to be brickbug safe. I don't care if people claim JB is brick bug safe. I am on this forum every day and read EVERY n7000 post. It is NOT proven safe.

I think u r one those guys who just reads posts and google for stupid posts..dude reading and performing it actually are two different things..to confirm what I am saying just read dr. ketan's guide and then u can judge who's right..I doubt u might even know what ROOTING is!

Not all phones get bricked when a full wipe is performed.
If you got lucky, and didn't bricked yours, you can't suppose it's safe and recommend it to everyone. That is just a plain stupid thing to do.
JB does have the emmc cap erase enabled, so it is NOT safe. Just look at the sources.

Dont use this method. It will give raised flash counter, which is d only most annoying part to handle on note.

Hi,
I flashed my Galaxy note with CM9 and my phone stuck at samsung logo.i couldn't even flash Stock Rom using ODIN. Then i used PIT file and successfully flashed but the problem is my 3GB of internal storage was damaged. It is showing 8.24GB of total space. Now i want to claim for warranty . I used Triangle Away to reset flash counter and flashed stock Rom without Root .Is it ok now for claiming warranty?
Thanks in Advance.
Depends in your country. Some countries still accepts warranty eventhough you're rooted

Hai pals. Greetings to you.
I get one used galaxy note.
After i turn on the phone(With a inactive sim) i saw that there are some security measurements in that phone like Sending messages when changing the sim, Samsung's famous Mobile tracker etc.
All i need is.,
1. Is there any way to remove those settings by flashing custom ROMS or upgreade/degrade it legally.
2. I want it to be as new as factory made. Is there any possibilities.?
Please put your valuable suggestion here. Im total nOOb for this android things.:angel:
Just do a factory reset in recovery....I advice this believing that its been legally obtained...
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
Lol yeah.
It has been obtained legally.
Anyhow., did I need any working sim or passwords to do factory reset?

its going to work that way because of the bad sectors in the mmc now.. best bet is to use a ROM that is as slim as possible.
or get the motherboard changed

which kernel and rom were you using ?
can you get into download mode and recovery ?
you may just have to flash a rom but give your full information first here

If you are sure about being bricked then try this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1667886 ask hg42 for his opinon
maybe you have used the wrong pit file.
do you have warranty ?

I'm afraid not rraka. This is how the vast majority of super bricks occur. (Me and HG42 included).Most of the rest is flashing ROMS from unsafe kernel.(even eybee did it flashing PA from MIUI). But yes, you are right. It's HG42, warranty, or pay for new mobo/phone.

Shoey, it seems he was bricked before using pit file. But if you use the standard pit file on top of a brick it makes matters worse.
with a little patience one can overcome the emmc brick, unless one has warranty and prefer to go to sammy for mb replacement. i really dont know where he stands.
which you tube video is it ? cant we do something to bring it down ?

try getting into download mode and flash a stock GB rom from pc odin without any pit file and repartition unticked. report back
Well you can try flashing pre-rooted GB from Dr. Ketan with PC odin, but the prognosis is not good. He also has proper PIT file for note1. Perhaps someone can provide link, or just search...
Edit. Just saw your post above mine Rraaka
Yes, If no warranty, and GB flash gets stuck, Then it's time to pay a visit to Hg42.

You didn't solve your problem - you only used a workaround. The price you have to pay is what you mentioned: reduced memory.
