You're doing something wrong. I don't know exactly what, but this is a very simple process. Is the phone even in dl mode, or what?

Download mode is usually when you hold the volume + and - button right? Then you press + to continue and you'll reach to the page where the android dude is at.

Let me see if I can help!
After you put your phone into download mode and then plug it into the pc is Odin already running?
And once its plugged in do you at least see it in COMM?
Also are you flashing the recovery first or are you trying to install the root through odin?
Have you already got cwm recovery on the phone?

Hi. Please help!
I was rooted using this method
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1896696
Then I used this method to try to upgrade to 4.1.2
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=31801178&postcount=5
Now it just shows the mobile odin screen and keeps on restarting, no matter what I do. It doesn't turn off, I can put it into the download mode but it does nothing.
What can I do PLEASE HELP I just want it back to normal!!!
I have all my titanium pro backups and the latest efs backup too.
I'm totally new to android + rooting as well.
I'm panicking right now
If u still have download mode, then flash ur previous stock rom 4.1.1 using odin and u should be ok.

Thank you so much! You don't understand how thankful I am.
Oh my god, that was scary. Thought I bricked my Note 2 then!
Any idea why mobile odin messed up?
Also can anybody tell me how I can upgrade to 4.1.2 whilst keeping my root please?
Just to add.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=35567830#post35567830
I was using this apk before I rooted. Could this be the reason that mobile odin kept on restarting?
just curious why couldn't you flash the pre-rooted 4.1.2 stock rom from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1915386 using PC Odin and restore ur Titanium backups to it..
Thanks! Was going to use mobile odin :banghead:

I wanted to keep my root and thought this was the only way to do it. How do I get 4.1.2 then?

Hi All,
Couple days ago I tried to flash my note2 with mobile odin back to stock rom but something went wrong and since I have not been able to get past the welcome screen *Samsung Galaxy Note 2*. I can get into a recovery screen but I am unable to choose a new rom to flash with.
I ve tried to flash it with odin 3.07 and via kies but no joy.
At this stage I am quite desperate to get this resolved. Can anyone help me?
Download correct stock rom to pc. Mount SD Card in recovery. Transfer file. flash from recovery.
Flash stock rom via pc odin
make a nandroid bake up as soon as you root your phone next time.

Unfortunately I do not have that option. I only have volume up to continue or volume down to restart. When I go volume up the phone goes into download mode.
Yeah. Then you have to flash stock firmware.

True but i had to use Odin and every guideline said the filed had to color yellow while for me it stayed blue but i figured heck at the moment it's just a paperweight so I don't have a lot to loose.
Now Rooting it again and placing my nandroid back up back and I am all sorted.
Thank you again!

I lost my data anyway I had backed it up with titanium but ran into problems restoring it... Lesson learned to create an image of my Android once I got it sorted again.

I had the same problem and almost had a heart attack thinking I bricked my phone when downgrading back to 4.1.1... Needless to say I just had to do a factory reset in recovery and it worked fine

i just want to grab some files! before restore
u will need flash a custom recovery 1st then will be able to backup,
If you were on stock rom , I've noticed during Boot Loop if you flash the Stock rom will not wipe your data only Messages, contacts and Call log will be wiped.
If you follow my way you won't lose any files.
But you can backup everything via adb.

That's a kernel and not a recovery.

Firstly, before anyone can truly help you you need to mention your phone setup such as the Rom you're using, rooted/not rooted, etc.
If you're rooted and have a custom recovery then just wipe your system and dalvik cache partition and flash the same Rom again. All your personal files will still be intact.

Pull yur battery out. Put it back in and go into recovery by holding power + home button + volume up. Release power button on the first bootscreen. Maybe u pressed the volume down.

Sorry just to make it clear, please let me know:
