I tried using this process: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1746665 to root my phone
After the odin push of the insecure kernel the phone wouldn't boot normally.
I am able to get into download mode, but the phone won't boot.
I'd like to be able to apply a stock rom back to the phone.

are you able to get into recovery at all, or no.
There are two 'samsung' screens that i know of, i was stuck at the step 4.
1st: 'samsung'
2nd: 'Samsung Galaxy S III'
3rd: AT&T splash screen
4th: pulsating 'samsung'
I'm going to assume you are stuck on the pulsating Samsung screen. Here is what you should do. Go into the att cwm mode (not the real cwm) by holding volume up, home button, and then power button. Wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache. Then put phone into download mode - volume down, home button, and power button. Open Odin 3.07 on computer, select the from you want to flash in the PDA field, and then plug your phone via the USB cable that came with the phone into a USB port that is connected to your computers motherboard. You should see the COM port turn blue. Flash ROM and you should be good to go.

Yes, I can get into recovery and into download mode.
I was able to flash cwm recovery, but can't access the external SD card to attempt to flash a rom that way.
I tried factory reset/data wipe no luck.
I think something with the kernel i loaded is corrupt, so I need to find a known good stock rom to flash via odin.
It gets to the "2nd: 'Samsung Galaxy S III'" if I go into recovery mode.
Never past the first pulsing Samsung in normal boot, or download modes.

Was able to locate a working stock rom.

Hello,
I have a very strange problem with my Note 2.... Yesterday i checked mails on my Note 2 when it suddenly shut down and rebooted.
First i didnt think it was a big issue but when it was on login screen where i have to enter my PIN i just touched the screen and it shut down again. Same thing happened again after that. Now it doesnt even boot up anymore... It just stays on Samsung bootscreen all the time. I can get into Download mode but not into recovery for some reason. I had no custom rom or anything else installed on my device. It was completely Stock.
I already tried flashing the firmware again via Odin but without any success....
Now i don't know what to do anymore and hope one of you guys can help me get back into my phone as i don't want to lose the data on it
Thank you in advance
Best regards

Try doing a data/factory reset and wipe cache in recovery, you`ll loose the data though. But it is the only way imo.

Then you have to take it to a samsung service center or the store for repair mate.
Anyone else with an Idea? What i also think is strange is that it says in Download mode that i downloaded 5 Custom Roms and my Current Binary and System Status are Custom???? I just installed the official firmware from SamMobile again -.-
Noone able to help me? I'm going insane at the moment cause nothing works.... Even when i plug in the usb cable the phone boots to the Galaxy Note 2 screen and nothing else happens.... In download modus it says i'm on a custom rom what i never installed to begin with....i only installed Stock Rom.... Please help what should i do T_T
So now i flashed the Rescue Rom but it did not change anything. Odin completed the flashing without errors though nothing changed. Also tried flashing Stock Firmware again but the status in download mode still shows custom system and binary.... Could it be that Odin is not flashing correctly though it is not giving me any errors?
I'm really desperate at the moment -.-
My galaxy s1 was bricked at one stage. I took the battery out and left it for am hour then I got it to boot into download mode. Are you putting the right rom on it? Like a whole factory rom?
Sent from my GT-N7105 using xda app-developers app
Yes already tried Stock Rom and also the rescue rom.... nothing changed
Can you flash CWM onto it? Then turn it off., hold down volume up, home and then power Tool you see Samsung logo?
Sent from my GT-N7105 using xda app-developers app
Already tried root with CWM but it won't go into recovery either. I also tried flashing the rescue rom with Pit-File but it does not go further than bootscreen. At the moment i really don't know whats wrong with the phone and i'm a bit desperate right now....
Isn't there anybody who's able to help me with this, please?

Nice that it worked for you Just tried it but it does not work for me... I'm still stuck at bootscreen
Boot screen stuck
Hi TS,
U need to first let us know which variant of the note 2 u are using.
is u want to solve the bootloop issue,u need to follow these step as posted by someone here:
1. flash CWM using odin,then boot into CWM(power+vol up+that centre button) then wipe dalvik> cache partition > then data reset
2.DL sammy's official firmware for your note variant (7105 or 7100 or whatever)
3.flash sammy's firmware thru odin
4.let phone boot into android
then do whatever you need to do.
I had the same prob at you did,followed that guy's advice and not everything is back to factory and i can send it in for warranty.
Hi guys,
Was trying to install a ROM last night in CWM Recovery, then I was having some difficulty, after each ROM swipe I was doing the Factory Wipe/Dalvik Cache Wipe/Cache Wipe.
Anyways, I ended up having to try and flash the pre-rooted Stock ROM, I used Odin 3.07 to flash it and in Odin it appeared to work fine, the phone was rebooting and Odin was in "Pass" mode, but the phone never gets beyond the Samsung boot screen.
I then tried to see if I could flash CWM Recovery in Odin and try and get into Recovery mode, it flashed fine in Odin and the device rebooted but still stuck in Samsung boot screen.... but I cannot get into Recovery mode manually, I even tried getting in via the Q3 Toolbox kit, and it says it cannot locate the device :/
So today, last desperate option, I tried flashing the un-rooted stock image for my carrier (Rogers), it seemed to work fine in Odin but it STILL just will not boot back up, still stuck in the Samsung boot screen.
Is this what a brick is? Beyond continually trying to re-flash the stock carrier MD5 via Odin, what can I do? Oddly enough the phone does recognize in the Q3 Toolbox for the Root options, just not for the Reboot into Recovery option. Is there something I can try in the Q3 Toolbox?
/Scared / really concerned
Please help, any help is appreciated.
Once again, I CANNOT get into CWM Recovery.

You're soft bricked, don't panic just yet. A hard brick is when the device is completely unresponsive. So far this sounds fixable.
To get into recovery, are you holding down the volume up + home key for long enough after the Samsung logo appears?
I'd try that again, but if not: Try to Odin CWM again but uncheck "Auto-Reboot" in Odin. After it's done flashing, pull the battery out, put it back in, and use the key combos to get into recovery. Hopefully you have a nandroid backup saved or another rom saved on your sd that you can restore at this point. (Please note that using this method may increase your flash counter, but that can easily be fixed with Triangle Away).
Hope this helps.
If its just hanging at the samsung logo..pull the battery, put it back in, boot into stock recovery ( vol up+home+power) wipe data/factory reset then reboot.
After that just download one f the one click rooted stock rogers roms. Odin it, Then use the S3 toolkit to flash a recovery only.
Should be goo to go from there
I am flashing the pre-rooted stock ROM's via Odin again, and then will try and flash CMW Recovery again but without the Auto-Reboot selected.
I was pretty certain I was holding the keys long enough previously to try and get back into Recovery but it never would actually go into CWM Recovery.
Will let you guys know how it goes, thanks for replying.

Just tried this.
Flashed the pre-rooted stock ROM, it went to Pass in in Odin, device never booted past the boot screen. Pulled out battery, re-inserted and then flashed CWM Recovery in Odin with Auto-Reboot turned off, that went fine to Pass, pulled battery and did the key combo to enter Recovery. I got the "Booting Recovery" in top left corner in blue for a second, held onto the key combo and nothing, just went back into the same Samsung boot screen and it's stuck there.

Hmmmm...one more thing to try. Re-download the stock firmware image in the unlikely event that you got a bad/corrupted download (also may want to try the version that doesn't have root injected). Then try again.
I'd say to try a different USB port on your pc, but since Odin is saying Pass that doesn't seem likely. Worth a shot though if the above fails (and also worth trying to Odin from a different computer).
Hang in there, you aren't hard-bricked yet! :fingers-crossed:
It has to rebuild cache everytime you flash, if you are clearing things correctly. This can take up to 10 minutes. Also, when the first samsung logo appears take finger off power button and hold the home and appropriate volume button.

The Q3 Toolbox kit saved me.
I couldn't flash into Recovery (not CWM Recovery, stock Recovery) no matter how long I held the key combo
But I eventually managed to get into Stock Recovery using the Q3 Toolbox.
Thanks for the advice people.
Holy shiiit that was nerve wracking for a while.
I have read through the forums this evening and got a good start on somethings. Issue is my phone is stuck on the Samsung Galaxy note II GT-N7100 boot screen. Any 'easy' way to get this fixed... Doubtful. Anyway I have got the USB drivers installed and Odin does see my phone and gives me a port to it. Can I just install a rom or will I need a boot loader also? I would prefer not to have to wipe my data if possible. I have tried to get into recovery (stock) but it will not go into it. The only thing I can currently do is use my USB jig and get into download mode. Any help would of course be appreciated...
If odin detects your device and you have downlad mode accessible just flash stock ROM.
if issue remain same even after flashing stock ROM then you have to wipe cache and data from recovery.
My phone wasn't recognizing my sim card after trying to update my CM11. I decided to install my stock rom and now when I boot my phone it is stuck on the Samsung logo. I've tried researching tons of forums and can't seem to find a solution. Also, when I try to enter recovery mode, it says recovery manual <3e> ?? Have I completely screwed my phone up?

What version of ROM were you on and what stock ROM are you trying to flash ?
Is download mode working ? Are you trying to flash it via ODIN ?
I was using cm-11-20150101-NIGHTLY-t0lte nightly and tried to update to CM12. That apparently messed my phone up to where I had to revert back to CM11. When doing this, my phone came on, booted up, and was useable, but wouldn't recognize my sim card. So I thought I would try and flash my stock rom and that apparently just bricked my phone altogether. I can access my download mode but my custom recovery is gone and when I do enter recovery mode it's the manual recovery with a <3e>??
If stock recovery is working then wipe data/factory reset and then flash stock ROM via ODIN.

What @ciphercodes meant to say was that, whiles stuck on the samsung logo, take out the battery, put back and long press home + power+ vol up buttons together to get into stock recovery and wipe/reset data...and reboot...thats all
