Hi All,

Sorry for my English, it's not my language.

I need your help because I think I have bricked my Note 7 after trying to install the last Hydra rom 1.3.5.

I explain you the situation:

I have installed custom TWRP => it was good
Then I have rooted with superU => it was good
Then I have tried to install hydra rom => the installation was OK
The phone reboot at the end of installation => phone stay on start screen "Hydra rom" and reboot (loop infinite)
I cannot power OFF the phone.
I cannot go to the recovery menu.
I can only go to the download mode.
So I have tried to re-install TWRP with ODIN but it was not working. Ondin detects my phone and when I click on start, I have the message "Fail" on ODIN and the phone reboot.

Do you have any ideas to help me?:confused:

Thanks.

Note 7 Problem - please help if you can, please

Hello

I am newbie here with no proper experience [ I flashed mobile with success once but it was years ago with NOKIA e90!]

I have Note 7 exynos UK VODAFONE and I did flashed it with older OEM firmware [ to bring it back to 100% battery], I downloaded from sammobile than recent one on my mobile [ limited 60% battery]

I unchecked re-partition
I used AP file there
all went fine with ODIN v3.11.1 all pass !

but once mobile started I have big message on my screen which does not disappear [ see attached photo]

unfortunately, the process
com.android.phone stopped


I can click/press OK on screen below that message, but it reappears again and again

I tried to flash it again but now ODIN says fail and something about PIT

I would appreciate some help or tell me what steps I should take [ apart of surrendering phone to place I bought it from!!!]

regards
M.

2 whipe format data "yes" x3
3 advanced format everything except external storage
4 reboot to download mode
5 open Odin on pc flash BL/CP provided in original Post of HydraRom
6 install HydraRom via TWRP
7 follow direction installation process
8 wait 5 mins boom!

Never fails for me.

I did that. I have already did that several time before. But I think I have understood the problem. My BL file is corrupt (may be during the download from the server)!

So I think the boot loader not working correctly! I have tried to reload one but without success. Directly Odin write "FAIL"... :(

Able to access Download mode only after Hydra flash. Solution?

Did this issue ever get a solution? I am having the same issue. I can enter into download mode only after the attempted hydra flash. Now it's stuck on "Hydra N7" boot screen. I had N930F flashed and running with twrp. When I attempted hydra I believe that the full rom did not flash, only 40 MB or so. To make matters worse I can't find where I jotted down my baseband, etc. It was originally N930X (live demo model). Now I get fails in odin. What can I do to remedy my situation. I read that I should flash BPH6 base files, but here it says AGO or AG2 BL. Which is it? How do I wipe the cache and data since I can only access Odin mode? I believe my BL is corrupted. Please help. I was going to trade my Note 7 in but my imei is all zeros and the boot loop. I'm not sure that they will refund or exchange in this condition. Although, they should since I doubt Samsung wants the liability of having these devices out there. Any thoughts on the matter?
Any insight and guidance is greatly appreciated!
