Solution
Error 4014 is usually "NAND not detected".
- Check the caps around NAND to see if they're shorted.
- If there's a short, remove the shorted cap and try to boot the phone up.
- If no short, pull the NAND and connect it to the JC P7 NAND programmer and see if it's readable
- If it doesn't read, the NAND is dead and needs to be replaced
- If it does read a NAND, then you can reball NAND and install it again. The phone should boot right up.
