ERROR: Failed to unpack received packet. and PIT downloading only thing to work

[DrDrebon]

Hello,

Allmost everything except PIT download fails on my Galaxy Note GT-N8010.

It is in a sort of soft brick state (not due to flashing, just went off while using it and started bootlooping with the Samsung flashing logo. As other symptoms, the samsung music during the animation does not play till the end -but the SMASUNG logo still pops flashing after that)

I thus tried to flash a stock 4.4.2 firmware on it. Using Heimdall 1.4.0 on Ubuntu 14.04 64 bits.

I got "heimdall failed to confirm end of file transfer sequence" errors.

Nothing displays on the tab screen.

I tried using ODIN (3.07) under Windows and it fails too...

Trying to flash only the bootloader with ODIN goes a little better :
If I try an old bootloader I have the magic word error displayed on the screen (only way to see something like this)

ODIN fails to repartition, and fails to pretty much everything... Heimdall does the same but allows me to get the PIT file correctly (I suppose)

After each attempts, I have to RE-reboot the tab to download mode in order to have it recognized by heimdall again.

Basicly it seems as if the tab was in a sort of read only state.

I don't know if it is really an heimdall failure... Maybe an hardware failure of the tab... Is there a way to get a dump of the partitions with heimdall (to chack if the tab memory has died) ?

Thank you

Here are some outputs :
