I am in urgent need of a help. I say step by step what happened.
i was happy with note 2 (non- root) until new update of came jelly bean came. after new update my note 2 keep on restarting and freezes. so i decide to root. i rooted with the tool kit. everything went well. and i put the custom rom alliance. all was well until yesterday. All of a sudden yesterday i was feeling my phone was hot in my pocket, and i check to see it is restarting and restarted to a screen of white with grey stripes. please find the attached for more clarification. I first thought this to be a pixel problem...but my download mode view have no problems. so i thought like why cant i put a custom rom which is installable via odin...but that too failed and was showing no pit file... found a pit file from N7100_OXA_N7100XXDLJ2. but when i try the pit file fail. I am running out of ideas please help....actually no more ideas... need of urgent help. :crying::crying:

Did you try to wipe and reinstall the Rom through recovery?
Sent from the rabbit hole.
How about removing the battery waiting a few minutes then put it back in then go to recovery and do a wipe then reinstall your favorite ROM.
Please keep us posted and good luck

There is no way in SDS they ever come to know you had custom ROM, as your flash counter is 'No' except yourself acknowledge them.
you have to just say it was fine untill night, when morning i look to it there was no life in device, thats it.
You will get device just like it was came box packed without any your data.
GoodLuck !

Don't believe this is an update. This is simply the stock firmware that came with the phone. It might come in handy if/when something goes terribly wrong and a backup won't fix your issue.

I'm not exactly sure if this is the stock tar or not.....
BUT if it is, you should be able to just restore your stock nandroid and pull out the recovery file and put that in the pda slot of odin.
Or just put the entire tar in the pda slot... looking for some confirmation on this

I'm just concerned about whether that Device Status field in the About Phone settings is something that is stored underneath the OS and can't be changed once you flash something. This would be an easy indicator that the phone has been messed with and clear void of warranty for normally clueless reps even if you do a return to stock type flash. Before I rooted, it said "Factory Mode“ but now says "Modified“. I haven't touched anything else other than flashing CWM and Superuser.
Though I made the tar.md5 the credit goes to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1484304. This is an ODIN flashable version of TWRP 2.2 for the Hercules.
::::::Update:::::::
Goo manager uses the website to host the recovery. The website is down. I will leave the link up until either I'm officially told to take it down or a Moderator locks it.
-Instructions-
1: Reboot to bootloader
2: Open ODIN
3: Select "PDA"
4: Select the "recovery.tar.md5" file.
5: Hit start and let ODIN do it's thing. Your phone will reboot.
As always I'm not responsible for anything that happens to your device. Flashing anything to your phone has it's inherent risks. ODIN can cause severe damage to your device.
Enjoy.

Hahaha my friend you should of done a little research before you just started flashing recoveries. They are completely different recoveries which means you can not restore a CWM in TWRP or vica versa. Your CWM backups are still in the same place but to restore them you will need to flash back to a CWM recovery...
Hope that helps you out and next time just check your stuff out prior to just flashing away... Safety first :good:
You better back this up somewhere because the developer for this recovery doesnt want any side downloads or so.

Are you nuts? You can't use the recovery for the T989 on a GT-9192! You'll brick your phone if you muck up your kernel. Or if you're lucky, you won't brick but the recovery will not boot cuz it's NOT the right one for your device..

I think what you mean to ask is, In download mode you get failed errors in Odin trying to flash a stock fw and encryption errors when flashing a rom via twrp. Post your pics of errors you are getting in the thread hopefully someone has an answer for you. iv'e been trying to help but im baffled, seems nothing will write to his internal on the phone. is this considered a brick even if you can still get into download mode or recovery?
EDIT: here are pics of errors twanskys204 is getting in odin and twrp. even after factory reset or wipes of caches from encryption error still no boot.

If your using a PIT file, tick "re-partition" in odin. It will 100% wipe the device. like factory. That should fix your error.

Edit sorry wrong question
Part of your problem is your flashing att firmware on a Canadian carrier phone. Try the right firmware. They are close, but not close enough.
Okay that being said. I can get into cwm. I see my external no internal. When I flash dagr8s rom it says complete and boots to Samsung splash screen then it gives me that encryption issue.. I'm at the point where I think I'm out of a note 2 but I don't know I'm 16 days into the purchase... Of well I guess this was an 800 dollar mistake on my part. To all the newbies out there plzz plzz read and understand b4 u flash.

No, the link is for a Captivate thread on encryption errors. It says that in the first sentence of the OP. The thread link is merely to help point you on a direction to start looking for what happened. It is not posted with the intent to offer a solution, merely more information.
Also, did you flash Canadian firmware on your Canadian phone, instead of Att firmware on your Canadian phone?
Ok first off in Odin. You only want that file in the PDA section.
Did you make a nandroid of your stock rooted before flashing dagr8's ROM? If so restore that. If not. Download a stock rooted one and get your phone working again.
What link did you DL his ROM from? Mine kept failing and had success from mirror 2
Also did you follow all the instruction about root??? It says make sure repartition isn't- IS NOT - checked!!!!
Edit: after rereading I see you were already rooted. If our can get to recovery. What about a data reset. Might work

Thats correct re partition needs to be enabled when going to stock when using a .pit file in odin. The i317m was released oct 30 so hence the reason he had it longer as I do the same

Well, they were released on the 9th. so impossible to have it that long, unless you have the Bell?rodgers version. Not sure when those came out. Also.

Not that I know of. If you can get to download mode you are still OK. Can you get into recovery?
If you can this is the Att stock image recovery. This should be the only file you need to get back to a working phone. I didn't see one for bell/Rogers.

Hey Everyone,
I have a Note 2 for AT&T and yesterday it didnt work at all. It showed the Samsung logo while booting and it went away. It only does that when the battery is pulled. After a few hours I took it to the AT&T store and they ordered me a replacement but now the phone can be put into download mode and "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue..." but wont boot past that. I tried using Samsung Kies and nothing. When the replacement comes I will reject it because if I send my old one in they will void the warranty.
While using Odin I get the "Complete(Write) Operation Fails". This morning I downloaded a new firmware (hoping to be the right one) and will follow up.
Anybody have suggestions? :crying:
You say you tried kies ?
Did you try the updater?
Reason I am asking is because you should be using the EFR not the updater when using kies when your phone is bricked or w/e.
Updater wont fix anything.

You will need to flash rom from the link below cuz they are rooted already. Use triangle away to reset counters then unroot using superuser, go to recovery mode and do factory reset in stock recovery. Same steps above I used to put my phone back to official and removed custom / modified status.

I'm just going to root it again using Odin and run triangle app to remove the counter but just keep it rooted and run performance apps. I honestly don't want to mess with the ROMs anymore.. ROMs are no joke and I've learned my lesson.
Hi all! I'm new here so please refrain from flaming me...
I'm no noob to flashing the rom on my phone as I have successfully carried out the procedure multiple times. However, on this occasion things didn't go as planned. I began the procedure to update my S3 via odin to the new firmware that was released yesterday, however when the process got to 'system.img' the status bar just hung in the same place (just past the beginning of the bar) for a good 20 minutes... I panicked and unplugged my phone... BAD MOVE. I now get the error message "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again." and the only thing I can do is put my phone in odin mode, which I did, and tried to install the stock jelly bean rom, the exact same thing happened as before...
What should I do?
Thanks in advance
You tried to flash the stock firmware?

Go to your phone thread and look for the unbrick package for the SGS3

Is this the thread called 'Welcome to your device, the Galaxy S III'? If not, I'd appreciate it if a link can be provided to this thread.

I don't believe we have that for our model.
If you can still get download mode there's hope, maybe not a lot in this case, but there is some.
Try to flash cwm or twrp via odin. If successful boot recovery and try to flash a stock rom. Hopefully it only screwed up the system partition. ...
Never unplug till odin says either PASS, FAIL, or RESET. You may end up really lucky this time. If its taking a long time, just leave the room.

Thanks for your help so far guys... I'm going to try that now... I'll keep you posted...
Bad news... FAIL appears when I try...
Does it say fail when you try a full firmware flash?
Do you get any response at all when trying to boot recovery?

When I try a whole firmware flash it just hangs right after it starts, and when I tried to boot recovery (was that what was previously suggested?) it says fail...
I previously suggested trying to flash recovery only using odin. Before you just said you can only boot to download mode, so I was asking what does it do when you try to boot into recovery?

Oh right, my bad. When I try to boot into recovery the error screen saying to recover with Kies pops up.
Good news! I followed this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1905655 and I am now able to get into recovery mode. I guess my only option now is to wipe my data, install stock JB and everything should be ok?
Guys, even better news... That thread was the solution! My phone is now back to normal! I did lose a lot of pictures, but oh well, I'm glad I have my phone back to normal. Thanks for all your help! :good:
Wow! Ok, I am glad you got it working again, but you took a huge risk flashing that. Luckily its just the kernel aparently, but you should never flash anything from the international forum. More hard bricks have occured from flashing international stuff than anything else.
Just pointing this out so you or others reading this don't take it as meaning they can flash international roms and mods.
Glad it did work out for you though!

Thank you for the info! I keep that in mind so I don't run into any other problems. Now, I'm deciding whether I should try to install that firmware that caused the problem again... Even though I know what to do in the event that odin hangs, the results may not be the same... What do you think?
On a side note: It seems I only text messages and app settings, luckily I backed up my phone with Kies a few days ago so it's all good

Before you do, check under the battery so you are certain of the phone model. There are 3 variants if the T999, and they cannot flash each others firmware.
Also, I don't believe you mentioned which firmware you tried, or I missed it, but which was it?
And i said it before, but do not unplug during flash. It may seem to take forever if it hangs, but it will eventually Fail out if it does.

Okay, it's definitely the GT-I9300, and the firmware I tried to flash was this one from SamMobile:
GT-I9300 United Kingdom 2013 July 4.1.2 I9300XXEMG4 I9300OXAEMG4
And okay, it's just that it it hung for so long I thought "well, that's not right", panicked, then yeah, messed up my phone.

Ahhhh, well, I know now why it didn't brick your phone when you flsshed thst kernel! You do hsve the correct phone for that. So you will need to reverse what I told you and do not flsdh anything from this forum! Sorry for the confusion, I assumed you had a T999.
It sounds like you have the right firmware, but I know very little about the international models. They are very different than ours. You should definitely go to the International forum from here on. Very little info you get here will be relevant and you cannot use any of our roms or otherwise.
Good luck!
