Hey, what process did you follow that ended up with it bricked. Like step for step. Also, have you tried recovery mode? We're you hit with the 0% update?

Were you hit with the 60% update prior to restoring the phone? Curious if that reverses the update

Im at 100% all the way !! i was hit with the 60% battery downgrade when I did the Software Update . I reversed the battery limit by flashing my note 7 with Orion . by the the way just received a message from Verizon saying that 1/20/2017 they are shutting down Note 7 users :(

I can't find where I can download the Verizon Software Upgrade Assistant. Do you have a link? I am stuck with the same issue.

when you plug your verizon phone into your computer, your computer will auto detect the phone and the verizon software assistant will install on you computer

worst case scenario, if its stuck in brick just return it to samsung for $900ish. They take back phones any condition

What is this about $ 900.00, and returning it to samsung? Have any of you done this? I'm curious, I purchased through Verizon on contract initially. I'd really rather get this new beta software up and running to get it back and keep it. . If I'm not successful, that would be an interesting though distant second choice. I'd appreciate if anyone has any additional information on this ?!
