BRICKED USERS GUIDE For N7000

SOFT BRICKS
I will try to describe ways to get Soft Bricked so that you can compare.....
You have messed with the system file. Remember the Blue Screen of windows. 

==> 1. Deleting any system file .odex 
==> 2. Moving from GB or ICS to CM/AOSP/AOKP Roms without following instructions or vice versa
==> 3. Flashing incomplete ROMS (did not check MD5 - Google it How to check) 
==> 4. Flashing an incompetent kernel (oh I didnt read instructions)
==> 5. Many other methods 
==> 6. JB BootLoop

Now you have to return to normal state. But beware there is a emmc bug which is going to interfere our correction process. Oops ! It hurts. There is no safe way as on date for ICS except there are Safe Kernels Claimed.

OTA BRICKS 

I will try to describe ways to get OTA Bricked (very rare)

a) Installed the OTA for ICS ROM Indian Version LPA on a rooted ROM.

Some thing has messed up with your .odex files and you get force closes or Stuck at Samsung LOGO

1) ODIN Method
a) go to Download Mode (Power Button + Vol down + Home)

b) Flash the ICS ROM posted in Dr.Ketan Thread in the PDA

Remember that options are ticked according to this image.
Do not tick repartition.


2) CWM Method (Custom Firmware - Closest to LPA ROM) 
a) go to Download Mode (Power Button + Vol up + Home)

b) Flash the ROM close to LPA without any Reset or Wiping.
This will endup with a custom ROM Clea Note (LPA Rooted)
