Note 4 TWRP trouble

I recently wiped everything on my note 4 because i was going to give it to my mom but instead of deleting the internal memory i deleted everything without backing up. When i boot my phone back up it shows the android thing with the note 4 but the screen is completely blank:crying. i read on a forum that it was due to deleting the wiping the os so i have no clue what to do at this point and it will be greatly appreciated if anyone can help
I have t moblie version of note 4 and the built number is SM-N910T
You simply wiped the phone completely like you said. No big deal. Just head over to sammobile.com and find a ROM matching your device model no. exactly, that is the N910T in your case, download and flash it via Odin. You will have a cleanly flashed ROM then, good thing actually, your mother will appreciate a totally clean ROM rather than hotchpotch

note 4 (N910A) verity error after stock ota update from 5.1.1 to 6.0.1

Hey guys,
I could use your expertise and help.
After updating my stock Note 4 Att variant from 5.1.1. to 6.0.1, I came back to my phone powered off. After turning it back on it freezes at the Att logo screen. Trying to boot into safe mode was a no go so I tried booting into recovery. Everything looked go for a second, I was greeted with an installing updates animation but that quickly was shut down and I got the "dm-verity verification failed..." error.
I tried wiping the cache and doing a factory reset. Talking with att technical support was no help at all. They basically told me if wiping the cache and factory reset didn't work I would have to get the phone replaced and pay a $150 deductible. I'm not paying them another dime when their update bricked my phone
So I'm here heart in hand hoping you guys could help me out. I did root my note 2 back in the day but forgot most of what it entails and was pretty bummed when I found out there was no root for the note 4. So I'm not a total noob but bear with me.
I did try Kies 3 but my phone wont connect. I tried off, on and in recovery still nothing.
Searching online it seems like most of the solutions require root access which this phone doesn't have. It also looks like it needs the stock firmware but most of the links I found here and elsewhere are dead, and sammobile doesn't have them either.
So what should I do? Am I out of options? Should I junk it cause Att sucks? Any sort of direction would be a big help! :highfive:

Make sure samsung kies or samsung usb drivers are installed on your pc.
Download stock marshmallow firmware and flash through odin .this method does not require root.
After flashing dont let the phone boot just go to recovery and wipe cache+wipe data factory reset then reboot.
Wait 10 to 15 minutes.
Stock rom link.
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24651430732238073
Extract file and choose AP tab in odin.
Upload firmware file then connct device via usb cable to pc.
Hit start in odin.
You're the man! Not only did you save my phone, you stuck it to Att's money grubbing hands in one fell swoop. People will write songs about you, you'll go down in the history books as the man, the myth, the legend! People will swoon in your presence!
In all seriousness though you're awesome! Thank you!
One last question, will I be able to use the ota updates from here? Not that I would be too comfortable using them after this debacle, just wondering if they should work.

Thanks for the compliment. you just made me feel like i am a Hercules :victory:
If you want my advice dont ever take ota updates.
Just go to www.sammobiles.com/firmwares and grab latest rom for your model and flash in odin as you did.
Latest rom comes with the same security patch update the 1 comes in ota.
I personally do this way all the time.
Hope that helps and have a good day.

Note 3 N9005 wont boot any ROM

HI
My friend need help with his NOTE 3 SM-N9005 LTE
Phone wont boot anymore. It only bootloops. I installed stock rom 2 times with ODIN and still phone stuck on recovery booting and then reboots only.
Then i flashed TWRP with ODIN and cleared everything on phone and wiped then installed MagMa_NX_UX9.7_Premium_XDA ROM
and everything sucess and seems fine, but when comes to boot it only stucks at Note 3 Splash some time and reboots.
I wonder if his partitions are ****ed up or something? ODIN dont show any errors neither.
HE said that this came after some update or something but i dont know if he tells the truth about what really happened
with the phone.
Any way to reparition whole phone and maybe update bootloader or something?
I forgot to mention that he replaced the LCD with new one but could it realy be issue? Because everything works in recovery and i can see Samsung Note splash screen.
I manage to fix it.
I flashed EUR version of STOCK ROM instead of NEE and phone finnaly booted. I dont know what the heck problem was.

(HELP) My Un- unbrickable sn910c . nto even street hustlers could help

Im noob in this, so take it easy please
This is the thread that looks the closer to my question, but is dead long ago
Note 4 cant boot to recovery mode plz Help.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/help/note-4-boot-to-recovery-mode-plz-help-t3038261/page2
I bought my n910c and installed lneage os this version:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/no...10c-n910h-lineageos-14-1-resurrected-t3786487
after that, I rooted, and everything wnet great.
Then I started changing stuff, isntalled substratum even tho the play store said it wasnt compatible, basically was pretty dumb with it. I made a backup with TWRP like feelling somthing was going to end up worng.
Later the phone froze, it did not respond, I took off the battery, turnt it back on, it was stuck in the boot logo.
Tried installing the stock roms from this thread
https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/general/note-4-n910c-lollipop-5-0-1-multiple-t3028939
It work with Odin, but its still in the boot logo stucked.
Later, I was told to go wipe cache and that thru recovery, but it just doesnt go there, its still in the boot logo.
Tried everything.
Tired, went to my local place where the tech geeks basically change everything to robbers when they have to change imei, etc, but also basic stuff like changing battery. Tried with the biggest three names there, nothing worked
The last guy seemed to be the msot promising because he used this different software called Octoplus, he said, everythign was been solved, but it jsut did not boot.
He swapped my original battery for a cheap one, and gave it back to me. When I realized it was too late.
I know its a long story but I just dont know what to do.
If you can help me it would be great.
Hi bro
So u tried the Octopus Box , thats not bad, but the guy u talked about , seems not so trusted. ..,
So
1,if u flashed ur phone with stock rom , and then wiped it, it should work....,
2, note devices are very sensitive to there battery, so if the rom didnt work, try to fully charge the battery and then flash and wipe it again...,
3,if that didnt work, try a new battery ...,
4, u can go to Samsung services, they have a box called " Z3X " , i also have it, i used to work in samsung services.
The Z3X maybe can bring it back to life...,
5,and if none of them works, u have to buy a new note...,

Galaxy S5 + Root safely.

Hi guys, today I made a big mistake by thinking that it would be so easy to root on my S5 +, I was wrong, because it appear that I had the bootloop problem, i resolved it by mistake i was so lucky, I tried to put a BootLoader on Odin on AP section, an error occured on my phone, It reset it and it did come back to life Yeah WTF right ? So now that i've got my phone back ! I'm happy but still, I'm worry about my sim and I want to know if someone is listening to me (because strange things happened lately), that's why I did some research and It appear that an app does exist to prevent such thing ! it's called Snoopsnitch, Amazing isn't it ?
I've got hope that you might be able to help me to root my phone properly this time and avoiding the loopboot issue. If you can led me to do it, it would be amazing.
There is my config. I wish you a good day, night or whatever you are doing on this planet. Kiss. :victory:

Sorry i'm new and i'm not allowed to share my image link so I had to trick the system ><
Thanks for your time and your answers guys. :highfive:
Oh hi, im having the boot loop / logo problem too.
could you explain more clearly what you did to resolve that and is it still good to this day?
ive already used odin3 v3.11 and put the latest stock firmware successfully but the phone still boot loops or if lucky it will get passed the carrier screen (O2) but then as soon as i restart the phone it will boot loop again. (or boot loop randomly, if i dont restart it myself, eventually).
I havent tried TWRP or PIT as im a basic user and just wanted the stock rom.
Any updated advice? ...im worried its the memory/emmc/hardware prob
thanks
