If you're able to boot into cwm, then you're fine.
I'm assuming you were flashing a ROM, so just wipe everything x3, and reflash the ROM or a different one.

Sounds like you may still have stock kernel on a custom rom.

Now that doesn't make sense. You can safely get into CWM, but not into download mode?
I have to ask to make sure. With the phone off, you're holding the 1 key on the keyboard and then holding the power button?
Well if that's the case, get to a PC and insert your SD card into a reader. Download a kernel, like Genocide v2 or etc to the card, and boot into CWM to flash the new kernel off the card. See if that helps.
yes i hold down 1 and the power button, and i tried the genocide2.0 and it still does the same just the samsung screen has a different logo
Sounds like my hardware locked vibrant try flashing cm7 or miui then see if you can make it back to dl mode

If your phone has life you should be able to get into download mode. Take your battery out, press the power button for 10 seconds. With the battery still out connect with cable to computer and press and hold the 1 key on the keyboard and then add pressing and holding the power button. Download mode will appear. Connect to Odin now.

Pull battery out, get sutff ready prior to odin, eithet recovery or stock img, then put battery back on, then put phone on download mode, vol. Up + vol.down then plug usb, tadda! You're on dowload mod make sure you have the right files, homie, if you are able to boot on recovery right now, that means you can boot into dowload mode just know the right button combo

Hey, I had the same problem. Could only get into cmw 6.0.1.2 and all flashes would just freeze up. I flashed darkside superwipe till it stopped, pulled the battery, flashed an old ics ROM, looked like it froze again so i pulled battery and started phone normally, booted perfectly. Then downloaded ROM manager from play store and flashed cwm. Phones been working beautifully ever since.

No, none of them fully completed, thats why i had to battery pull. For the first several flashes i let it sit for 10min+ hoping it would work itself out, to no avail. The battery pulls were out of frustration. I just did trial and error until it eventually worked. Sometimes you have to figure things out for yourself.

Give this a try:
1) Go to Samsung Kies & download " Kies " on your PC.
2) Run Kies & click on the Tools tab.
3) Select " Firmware upgrade settings " & follow the on screen steps. Depending on your download speed this my take 1hr.
4) Your phone is back to stock ICS 4.0.4. Put this file on the root of your SD card " root.zip " You can also find this zip in the installed folder for Toolkit Beta.
5) Download & install " [APP] Samsung Galaxy S II Toolkit Beta V2.4 *ICS ROOT READY!!!* "
6) Follow the on screen steps to flash CWMT. This will use odin to flash CWM Touch back on your phone.
7) After odin opens click pda & select the recovery file " recovery.tar.md5 " it should be the only file listed.
8) After CWMT is on your phone and phone has rebooted unplug the usb wire from the phone & turn it off.
9) Pull battery wait for 10 sec then replace battery now push in and hold both volume up & volume down buttons at the same time then hold the power button until the phone vibrates. *Do not let go of the volume buttons until you see CWMT*. It will flash the screen one time then you are now ready to flash the root.zip file you put on your SD card.
10) Find the root.zip file you put on your SD card, now flash it *note it may not flash right away just keep trying until it flashes. Then reboot.
11) You should now be stock & rooted & ready to flash your hart out.
Let me know if this helps, I have done this 4x now & it works with no problems.

Have you tried a factory and data reset to factory settings from the recovery? Usually fixes the problem. Always do that before and maybe after a custom rom zip installation.
He said it wont boot into recovery, but he didn't answer whether or not he can get into download mode. Thats his only hope if recovery isn't booting.
I cant get it on turn on period. if I try t boot into recovery, it does nothing. very stange!!

This may not be it but are you sure the phone is charged and has enough battery life? I'm wondering what battery % you were at when you started the process?
Maybe try removing the battery for 10 seconds and trying to boot into recovery again?
phone was fully charged.

From download mode, if that works which it should, use Odin to reflash stock ROM then install CM10 over it after reflashing CWM.

Most likely but if it does anything at all thinking a jig might be worth a shot to get to download mode....I always try the cheapest way first. 6 bucks from eBay vs sending away.

Isn't this for the international version?
So I'm running an unlocked rogers galaxy note 2 I1737M. I was using clean rom 3.3 then today it just crashed everything. I tried to reboot to recovery and well it got stuck in a boot loop there. This was at work so now several hours later I am sitting here trying to reset set my phone. I have tried odin to restore to the stock files, hell I would be happy with just that. I used the imiage found in the refrence thread of the android develpment. any tips? links? help of any kind? Anything will be greatly apreceated.
worst part is I got it yesterday.
EDIT: I thought I should add that I am using odin v1.85 and that I am unable to get the phone to boot into anysort of recovery, ok I did once but can't get it to do it again. Not even stock.

I was using Stock LJ2 kernel CMW-flashable. After several hours of fighting with TWRP I was able to install CWM using odin and got my self out it looks like. The only thing with CWM is that data wipe seems to crash the recovery so I hope this dirty install of the rom I had saved on their works just fine.
Hello all,
previous searches have yielded limited answers so I apologize if this has been answered already.
I've been running CM for the past 5 or 6 months and have had zero problems with it. Last week however something happened and I got stuck in a boot loop. Me being a genius obviously didn't make a backup of anything so I flashed the stock rom via odin back onto the phone. After flash through odin I get the green light and pass indication. I go to restart the phone in recovery and I get the sick droid with the red yield sign above him. I then go to wipe/factory reset then reboot and it goes as far as the Samsung logo doing its animation and then stops just after and freezes. A regular power up without going into recovery first results in a boot loop.
I tried the recovery process through Kies and get the "This devices version cannot be updated" error. I am running the current version of Kies. I'm assuming its because it knows I've been rooted?
Note 2 Sprint
thank you in advance.

I dont think kies has NE2 yet so you can only use odin. Boot into recovery (stock is fine) and do a factory reset. Then power off (do not reboot) and go into download mode and flash ne2 tar again through odin. Then hopefully you will be able to boot. Note that 4.4.2 is a large rom and will take around 5 mins to actually boot up.

Thank you for the response,
When I go to wipe/reset I get the dead android with the red triangle. I am assuming there is a fault in my stock recovery. I still went ahead and wiped/reset data and removed battery after, waited a few minutes, inserted battery, booted into download mode, flashed stock ne2, everything with odin passed. I booted phone up and it immediately went into a boot loop with the samsung logo for about 5 minutes then shut off completely. the battery has a full charge.
I'm open for other options if some are available.Would it be possible to skip the stock recovery and go straight into a custom recovery? I'm planning on rooting and installing CM again but obviously making a backup this time.

Like he said use odin to flash philz 6.07.9 but uncheck reboot option. Once everything is done disconnect and pull battery (this is safe as long as everything finished flashing). Then do recovery key sequence while inserting battery. Then flash your rom. If still having issues with booting I have a special file that you can odin that should fix it.

I downloaded the 6.07.09 philz zip file, however I'm having trouble finding the tar.md5 file to flash through odin.
Also, once philz touch recovery is installed can I immediately flash a recent version of CM11 nightly straight from my external SD card?

Yeah kind of thought that might happen. Flash the attachment from this (fix.tar) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=53035491&postcount=287 through odin and it should fix your issue. Also you are not rooted automatically because of Philz. Root is controlled by the rom but almost every custom rom (omni excluded) comes rooted so hope that helps that question.

I'm assuming the fix.tar changes the recovery to CWM? I flashed the fix zip successfully, rebooted, CM logo came on for a couple minutes, I did a happy dance, then the phone shut off again. Pulled battery, turned back on and its stuck in a boot loop now with samsung logo.

When I flashed the fix.tar. it changed the recovery to CWM which only gives me the option to wipe data/factory reset, whereas with the philz I had the option to wipe for just a new rom. or a complete reset
Good then you can mix them up. Do the factory reset. Also you sure it is cwm or is it the stock recovery? I have not used that file since 4.4.2 came out but thought it was all stock.

Yes, after the fix.tar flash the recovery changed to CWM. However, I'm still having no luck. I tried system wipe/restore then reboot but the phone boots to samsung logo then shuts off. Ill go over the steps I've taken again.
1. Flashed stock recovery through odin - got red triangle above dead android. I'm assuming problem with stock recovery
2. Flashed Philz recovery through odin - did factory reset, flashed current version of CM11, boot, samsung logo comes on then phone shuts off.
3. Flashed fix.tar. through odin.- boot, CM logo comes on like its booting for a minute, then phone shuts off, pull battery, restart phone then goes into a boot loop. wipe data does the same thing. After a couple times of that I'm now at a point where when I reboot from recovery it goes straight to samsung logo then shuts off. Holding the power button (like a regular startup) does nothing. The phone is only responsive to recovery mode and download mode. Not to mention the phone has to be plugged in to either the computer or the wall for any of this to work. Even though the battery indicator says the charge is at 100%.

So you can not run on battery power at all? Sounding like a hardware issue. If you know someone else with a note 2 I would try swapping batteries. After that I am not sure what to try.

I have a friend that also has a note 2, I'll try his battery this weekend and let you know what happens. Thanks again for all the help.

A different battery didn't help. I reflashed the stock rom, where I get the original problem of the red exclamation point laying down android screen. Is there a way to rid the download screen of the system status as being displayed as "custom" and the knox warranty void: as 1 with the condition the phone is in? I believe if I can reset the counter and prove it is a hardware problem they will cover it under warranty. If not I believe my only option is to destroy/crush the phone beyond repair and claim the insurance which is $200 to replace the phone.
Can you post the link where you got the stock rom?
