Got hard brick from phone being off too long, need help from fellow Note4 owner
Ideally you would have a SM-N910F like me, but i think any Note4 would work (the only ODIN device i have is a sgs2, for which this procedure hangs at starting T-Flash)
You will also need a 4GB or larger microsd that you dont mind erased, and a way to access it on your computer RAW (like a microsd->usb reader, or inbuilt one on a laptop)
Download and extract this pack that should have all the things you will need: http://ift.tt/2di4nq1
Stick the microsd into your computer, use SDFormatter or windows disk format to format it as FAT32 (DO NOT USE QUICK FORMAT, use the overwrite full option in SDFormatter too, if it takes a while to do it then you know you've done it right), this is so that your sdcard is mostly zeroes, so that the full image of it will compress to barely anything later on.
Then put it into your Note4, pull the battery from it, put it back in, then enter download mode (Hold VOLDOWN and Home and POWER untill the warning message appears, then connect your Note4 to your computer via MicroUSB, then hit VOLUP to continue into download mode)
Open the Odin included in the attachment, if your Note4 doesnt show up in the top slots, then you need to close it, install the included driver, and restart odin.
Inside Odin, go to PIT (acknowledge the warning), browse for the included PIT (APQ8084_boot_recovery_v2.pit), then click BL and browse for the included BL (BL_N910FXXU1BOC3_CL4456564_QB4348238_REV00_user_l ow_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5)
On the options tab MAKE SURE that the "T Flash" option is checked, Re-partition should be checked also, everything else unchecked. "T Flash" mode means that all writes that Odin will do will be to your microSD card, not the eMMC, so your NOTE4 ROM/DATA WILL NOT BE AFFECTED.
Then go to the Log tab and click start. If it finished successfully (you are GREEN), unplug the note4, pull its battery, pull the microsd and put it back into the computer for reading.
Download and install Win32 Disk Imager http://ift.tt/2di3opU
Open it up, as the Device choose your SDCard letter (do not accidentally format it again or anything if windows asks you to), then click the folder icon and find where you want to save the dump (the hard drive needs to have enough free space to store the full sdcard size), then click Read.
It will take a while, it should be going at like 10MB/s, when its done, go find the file you just made, 7z or RAR it with ULTRA/Best compression ratio, and upload it anywhere, and post the link as a reply here.
You can then do whatever you want with your microsd, like reformat it back and restore your original backup.
Thanks so much if you do this, I haven't been able to find anyone who has done this before, or I would just use their premade image.
