[Q] Cannot flash t889v modem on t889v

Hi I recently purchased a note II t889v, I didn't have a micro sim at the time to test it properly. I am stuck on edge:2 while on rogers. I then noticed that it had been flashed by the previous owner. So I looked around the forums.
Details:
-In download mode model is listed as sgh-t889v_NA_VTR
-I have tried to reflash to stock MCT T889VVLALJ4 gets stuck in boot loop
-extracted the modem.bin and flashed using odin and cwm flash. sometimes boots up to lock screen but crashes then reboots or freezes
-using t-mob t889 modem(T889UVALJ1_Modem.zip) allows me to start the and use the phone, but limits to edge:2
-IMEI is listed in the status
I'm trying to get the phone to connect to UMTS.
Any help or input would be appreciated thank you in advance.

I have already tried flashing that modem also. I'm one of the 6 people who downloaded it lol. as soon as it was released by ptmr on his jedi 3 rom. gets stuck in boot loop also. only modem so far that didn't boot loop was the t-mobile modem t889.

tried still stuck on boot loop. If it I flash the modem after I have started the system. without factory reset it get to the lockscreen then it reboots. after factory reset it doesn't even get to lockscreen.

Now try flash stock T889V via Odin . When in bootloop boot your note into recovery .Then factory reset , reboot.

1. downloaded the T889VVLALJ4_T889VYVLALJ4_MCT firmware from sammobile
2. downloaded odin 3.07
3. put phone into download mode using voldown+home+power
4. opened odin
5. plugged in usb.
6. waited for com to show up and looked for added msg.
7. clicked pda selected the T889VVLALJ4_T889VYVLALJ4_T889VVLALJ4_HOME.tar.md5 file
8. ensured auto boot and f reset only checked.
9. pressed start.
10. phone reboots into a boot loop
11. hold volup+home+power go into stock recovery and factory reset
12. reboot system
13. still in bootloop
also I don't know if this will help solve the issue. with odin I cannot flash any modems other than t889v(LJ4). whenever I try to flash t889(LJ1) modem it fails in odin but works when using CWM.

I hope so too. I just don't understand why the phone won't boot up unless I use the t-mobile modem. but I only get stuck on edge:2

I just noticed that when I boot up after installing a stock rom I'm still rooted does that mean anything?

i get bootloop too on the t889v without the t889v mdm. so strange.

[Q] Boot Loop Can't boot into Recovery

I tried to flash a CM 10.2 ROM coming from Carbon 4.3. The phone is stuck in a boot loop and when I try to turn off and boot into recovery it shows the blue recovery message in the top left corner but then continues to boot and goes right back to the boot loop. I have tried multiple times and cannot get into recovery. What do i do now?

Try for download mode.

Download the stock rom for your phone and put the phone in download mode, run odin, flash the proper firmware for your device. If you look around on here, you will find a pre-rooted one or goto sammobile.com, or samsung-updates.com and download what you need. I would have posted links but on mobile and dont have a lot of time.

OK I tried to use odin to flash the stock rooted firmware. When I opened the file with PDA it took a few seconds to check md5 and said valid, then I hit start and it only took about 2 seconds and gave this message
<OSM> Leave CS..
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 0)

I updated to a newer samsung driver i found and rebooted the computer and tried flashing with odin again and it finally seems to have worked. now the phone rebooted and is on the samsung logo and has been for a while. Do i need to wait for it to boot or reboot? How long should it take?

Well I finally got tired of waiting and pulled the battery. I was then able to boot to recovery and do a factory reset and reboot into the stock firmware that I flashed via Odin. Now back to flashing cm10.2!

[Q] flashed stock image using ODIN, stuck at boot at "Samsung". assistance requested

[Q] flashed stock image using ODIN, stuck at boot at "Samsung". assistance requested
My wife's phone T989 stopped working during the week previously running one of the custom ROMs for Jedi Mind Trick. Unable to put or enter custom recovery i have restarted the phone to put into download mode, run Odin 3.07 and flashed factory stock image for the phone. Odin recognizes the phone, and completes the flash successfully. phone reboots but always stuck at samsung screen (just the letters, not the animation). the previous ways to get phone into download mode (power + volume buttons do not work), however, i can get it into download mode but doing volume and usb connection on power up. Odin still sees the phone fine and allows me to reflash factory image.
Any hints of where to look at next? is locating proper PIT file my next setp?
Thank you for your help

if it helps, here is what I see in the download mode

Thank you. no luck so far. I used ODIN 1.85 to flush stock image. everything worked without error, phone restart and is stuck at the same Samsung screen it was stuck before (waited for 1.5 hours to confirm).
The image i am trying to flush T989UVLE1_T989TMBLE1_T989UVLE1_HOME.tar.md5
My next attempt would be to flash T989UVMC6_T989TMB_T989UVMC6_HOME.tar.md5 images.
Any other thoughts?

Got it to work
If it would help anyone - used ODIN 3.07 and T989UVMC6_T989TMB_T989UVMC6_HOME.tar.md5 , flashed but did not wait for the phone to finish reboot. entered recovery, flashed system data to remove boot loop and got the phone to finish booting.
Thanks to all who helped!

Soft-bricked? Odin passes but still stuck on loadup

AT & T Galaxy Note 2 SGH-13I7
So I'm at a loss on what to do with my phone at this point..
Everything was running great until yesterday, I attempted to root it, the root attempt was unsuccesful but the phone still worked just fine and It even got shut off and turned on a few times after the failed attempt. But one time it froze up after installing an app and after that the phone got stuck on the boot screen.
So this morning I flashed the stock 4.1.2 Rom and it worked again, then I updated the phone on the device itself. OTA is what you would call it I believe. And now I'm back to where I started. The phone gets stuck on the galaxy note 2 loading screen and it wont start.
I cannot enter recovery mode in order to wipe the settings and clear the cache.
I can enter download mode however, and my attempts at flashing the stock firmware PASS on Odin but the phone only gets stuck on the loading screen again afterwards
Does anyone know what I should do?
Your help is greatly appreciated. Thanks a bunch
Is there any way I might be able to enter a recovery mode using an micro SD card?

To which rom you updated? Know that from newest version there is no going back.

Edit : there's a way(maybe) to get to download mode. But not sure if it will work on your phone. There is a thing called jig kick USB. You can build one yourself.

Thats probably my problem then. I was running 4.3 and the stock firmware I installed was 4.1.
Is jig kick USB used to get into download mode, if thats the case then I am already able to do that. Just not get into recovery mode.

Yes I noticed later that you can access download mode. So try to flash the rom you updated to but for your carier as your phone is from at&t you should use their rom. I don't have carrier phone so I speak theoretically. But I guess you understand what I mean.

mine is the same n7105, so how did this go, did it worked?
mine n7105 says passed and once rebooted don't pass n7105 logo, i can only enter download mode,

I'm having the exact same issue, 7100 Sprint. Odin flashes pass but still stuck on SGNII screen, can't flash recovery or ROM. Had 4.1.2 and accepted OTA mistakenly.

I literally just had this problem with my SGH-I317 and fixed it with this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2589891 go down to where it says "If you are running the official *MK6* firmware"

ive had something similar. had odin pass. no cwm / twrp access only stock recovery and stock downloader mode.
you need to flash a stock rom to get it back, then boot into it. connect pc. (a different usb port sometimes) get ODIN to reboot it into downloader mode. I had major problems getting to that point. but got it from flashing a stock rom. I have also had this old CM10 rom that fix's all partitions etc. i cant remember the name of it now.
a couple of times ive had issues getting into custom recovery. when you hold power +vol up + home key. when u do keep holding power. it loops boot and loops back again. when u release. make sure you hold power for like 1-2 seconds on logo. dont release power button before logo appears. wait a second after it appears. get it every time now.

Try to flash latest TWRP trough ODIN and check if you can boot in to recovery after that.

booting issue

I have a stock galaxy note 2 which keeps booting into download mode. the phone hasnt ever been rooted. it was running just the stock att firmware. but started bootlooping, and now boots only into download mode.
Ive tried to get it to boot into recovery but it will only auto boot into the download.

reflash stock rom using odin

Odin always give a pit error when I try and flash

4.1.1 firmware ?
Reflash stock firmware via Odin or kies....sounds like a corrupted partition...
Also possible that the emmc is bad...
Try reflash of the rom first...
Kies works also...but you "will" lose data not already on the SD card....g

I tried kies, it just says connecting.. but never connects. When I boot my wifes note 4 into download mode it will have some red text in the top left corner. The note 2 doesn't have anything other than downloading on the screen

try with PIT in Odin

Tried adding a pit file and the stock tar file. I then got a repartition error. I can Google and find other people who have had the same problem in the past but no one seemed to ever figure out how to resolve the issue.
