Is your note 4 doesn't boot ? shows eMMC error ? then you are in right place
To repair such , you need ODIN , stock cable and mobile driver installed and the most important repair Firmware( 4Files Firmwares (PDA,AP,Modem,Phone,CP,BL,Bootloader,CSC,PIT Files)for it
(This Method is only for Pro users who know how to flash kernels Bootloader using ODin and should be perform with the caution )
So the tutorial is as follow

Get a Repair Firmware Of Your model number
==================
A) SM-N910F
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24407100847294341
B) SM-N910G
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24411628330025773
C) SM-910P
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24591020540821805

Now extract it in a folder . open Odin and choose the files i.e BL, AP, CP, PIT according to Odin option .
Now tick F.reset Time , Re-Partition ,
dont tick the "autoreboot option"

Once the flashing done . remove the cable from your device and remove the battery . insert it back to the device and boot into recovery via volume plus + menu and power button combination
now chose wipe cache and data reset . done
it should be fine
otherwise you could flash back the stock firmware (the one you downloaded )without the pit file
DONE
PS-special Thanks to tsar3000 for files :)

Unfortunately, the issues are back. Since yesterday, I've had to do 3 or 4 battery-pulls (phone would crash and freeze, or turn off).

If I reboot the phone, it will not do a normal boot-up, I have to pull out the battery, wait for 1-2minutes and plug the battery back in and phone will do a normal boot.

If I shut down the phone, it will not do a normal boot if I press the power button, I have to do a battery pull.

Battery is brand new, genuine Samsung, only two weeks old.

So yeah, I've resigned to the fact that my motherboard is most likely faulty.

EDIT - just to clarify, the repair firmware will probably sort your phone out if you had a bad odin flash or failed OTA update, something software related.
But if it's a hardware failure, better send back to Samsung.

well..for me there is no lagging or freezing ..but there's a workaround for your problem.. download wake Lock- Powermanager and set partial Wake Lock option :) hope this will fix the issue ASAP :)

well as far I recon, only snapdragon variants are effected with this crazy time machine bug around the globe . its more like a BOMB with a time machine. after 1yr or 2 "eMMC read fail" or Write fail " . The quality of hardware or software from Samsung has decreased a lot( i.e latest example is note 7 battery explosion )

The more I see and think about this problem, it reminds me of a problem HP had with some of its laptop.(I had one). They use to run very hot and eventually the solder joints under the GPU would gap. You would have to heat the chip with a heat gun and rig up a heat sink to get them working again.

Now I'm not saying that's what's happening, but I noticed these phones get really hot flashing deodexed roms. And just wondering if this could be a possibility, that the emmc chips are getting hot and breaking solder points.

Just an idea, or the chips are just bad.

You might be on to something. I had to do that exact same repair on an HP laptop some years ago. My Note 4 has always run a little hot, perhaps over time the heat has damaged its guts?

Yup, currently have an uptime of 96hours (4 days) thanks to partial_wake_lock.

I'm hoping the phone will last long enough until I can save $$ for a new phone :)

This method didn't work for me ( I was still getting write error when trying to flash) But I solved it another way:

I installed Philz touch recovery and used option "clean for rom installation" which formats absolutely everything (minus important stuff like efs) and then I used the emergency recovery option from Kies and it all worked fine.

Thanks

The above didn't work for me (but, thanks for the extra option though) tried the initial one also. Anyone else got any ideas - although I must confess I did use the wipe option in TWRP (I'm guessing that's the same).

---------- Post added at 09:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:26 PM ----------

The first option didn't work either- mine gets part way through and then fails.

Secure check fai: PIT

Hi
I have tried your proposed method,

But I got the following error " Secure Check Fail: PIT"

The Thing is my friend's note is broken, and TWRP 3.0.2 is installed and I'm stuck at boot loop

One more things my dumb friend installed a SM-N910P Firmware On SM-N910F Note.

So what should I do to fix this problem, thank you very much.

Can you still enter download mode?
Try a emergency recovery within Samsung Smart Switch on a PC with the serial number.
This will restore everything to factory defaults.

    How hot and how long?

    Sent from my SM-N910W8 using Tapatalk

    The heat gun I used was set for 235C. The components surrounding the EMMC were covered not to get direct heat and it was heated up for about 5 minutes moving around the chip. The phone is still working BTW. I have made sure to underclock it so it doesn't get that hot ever again. Oh and its amazing how fast this phone is especially now that its fixed. The EMMC issue and using wakelock make the phone so sluggish. Oh and before my phone wouldnt charge off. Now it charges off and runs like a brand new phone.

    Its hardware... Simple I fixed mine.

    I can tell you how i fixed it. This is the only fix for EMMC.....
    No need to replace motherboard.
    No need to change software.

    -Well lets cover what the cause is. The issue the processor overheats constantly and makes the solder connections separate. Thats why when it gets cold it tends to work like normal till it heats up. I took apart the phone and used heat gun heat up the EMMC and put a little weight on it to push it back down. Then let it cool. Hooked up everything and Guess what.. Phone works perfectly now.

    I have the Australian Note 4 - SM-N910G and decided to give the 4.4.4 repair firmware a try.

    So far, so good!

    (My phone previously had the emmc failure error. It exhibited the common issues such as reboots, crashes, freezes/non-responsiveness, wouldn't wake up from deep-sleep)
