Hello,Today I stupidly tried to root with kingoroot and bricked my Note 4, now I downloaded a new rom to fix it but now I see that my computer (or any computer) can't recognize the phone but I can still charge it

When I connect it to my phone it says device is malfunctioning. I am out of options and very frustrated

Please someone help me

. Manufacturer - Samsung
2. Model - Note 4
3. Software version - 5.1.1
 
Sounds like a hardware issue. The connection that charges the device is separate from the data transfer. Do you have the original Samsung charging cable? Sometimes that helps.
Kingroot is a horrible app. Unfortunately it works.

I know you're upset. I've been in your position before. You need to take a deep breath and read through the thread again. Look for something you might have missed.
