I've searched, I've tried but to no avail have I been able to fix my poor note 8..and I'm hoping someone can help!
I HAD a stock 4.4.2 Note 8 (AT&T version I-467) running, and I went with the Kingroot method to root. The device rooted but ran like a dog, and in my infinite wisdom did a wipe/reset to see if that would help.
Now here is where I stand:
1) The device boots to a screen saying unauthorized firmware
2) I can get to download mode (power+vol. down+Home)
3) I can NOT get to the screen with (power+col. up+Home)
I have tried Kies, and it won't take the serial number/model number, and Odin can only seem to flash the boot loaders. I have tried 4 different ROM's from samsung (with different international codes), and none of them are able to update the system (they all fail at about 90%). I've tried the all in one toolkit, and since I can't enable USB debugging at this point, it never recognizes the device as attached.
I've tried manually flashing with Odin TWRP, Phils, and stock recovery,(in the hopes of getting one to take so I could load a new ROM from SD card) and they all fail as well.
When I split any of the system images I can load a boot loader file from them, and it succeeds, but everything else fails.
Can anyone point me in the right direction, or am I completely hosed?
