[Q] N7105 Won't boot - Possibly Bricked? - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was flashing a new ROM onto my phone today (MoonROM) and has some trouble doing it - things seemed to have gone OK, but i realized that i had set something wrong in the AROMA options, so i re flashed to get the correct setting.
After reflashing, my phone wouldn't boot - it just sits at the 'title screen' indefinitely - black, with white text saying "Samsung Galaxy Note II GT-N7105".
I booted into recovery and clearing my cache + Dalvik - still nothing
Into recovery agian and flashed my previous ROM (Hashcheck hybrid) - still nothing. just sits at that title forever.
I have since tried reflashing the stock rom using ODIN, flashed several different roms in recovery, and tried several different recoveries (TWRP, CWM, and PhilZ). still no luck.
What else can i try? Have i somehow bricked my phone? And if I have, what can i do to get it working again?

[Q] Soft brick, neverending booting / boot loop. Am i doing this right?

Hi Guys.
So i flashed a few roms lately. started with EmotionMiUi then CM10, Omega, Alliance and well a few more.
i did a full wipe and cleared all caches each times and only had a few minor problems with the different ROMS that i was able to fix.
So i now returned to MiUi and have had it running for about a week. Tried some DPi modding yesterday, and did notice that it took longer time to boot and boot into recovery. i flashed the Xpose DPi remover, and continued using my phone. i have rebooted about 3 times today. And the last reboot caused the phone to enter the eternal "Samsung Galaxy Note II - N7100" boot static "animation".
Now i have tried pulling the battery several times, tried booting into recovery and the only thing that will let me boot into anything is power + home + volume down.
i have obtained the official samsung firmware ROM for my phone.
is my way ahead to "just" flash it using Odin, and i will have my good times back ?
Maybe try to clear Data and Cache partitions first?

Just to clear you're stuck at the start screen( the screen it shows Note 2 and model number)?
If so, then i have no clue
If your phone goes in a bootloop ( startscreen then samsung logo animation, blank screen, start screen, samsung logo animation...) I have faced this issue while flashing Stock ROMs and you can clear this by doing a factory reset though i have no clue whether this is the correct one for MIUI ROM.

i was stuck at the very first startscreen that just stayed there. i had been messing around with some DPi and a lot of tweaks.
i used Odin from my PC to flash the official firmware, then i used Philz recovery to format and clean before flashing my MiUi V5 ROM.
ALL works great.

[Q]N7100 Stuck on White boot text

Hey guys. I was running Omega rom for a while, and today i decied i would flash 4.3 paranoid android on my n7100, but when i tried to flash, it kinda went bad, first time it booted with no problem but than i wanted to reboot it to insert SIM and i got stuck on Samsung Galaxy NOTE II N7100 White text screen. I tried wiping everything, reflashin PA and CM10.1 but i cant get past the white text.Not even Boot Animation starts. I can get to Recovery no problem and I even tried reflashing the recovery. It didnt help any.Should i try to flash stock rom via odin? What should i do? It just wont get past the white screen. I repeat, flashing various ROMs didnt change anything.

[Q] S3 - Bricked [no recovery, sits at s3 load screen]

Still a bit of noob here - but here's what happened:
I was running clean bean 4.2, then I successfully installed the MK3 baseband w/o any problems. I found that the wifi was broken so I flashed the wifi fix from (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2541900).
Once that flashed ok my system tried to reboot and then proceeded to sit at the samsung loading screen. After 10+ mins I hard pulled the battery and was able to get into twrp and tried a restore backup from before any changes today. Once that finished it rebooted and is still sitting at s3 load screen.
Now when I try to get into recovery nothing happens.
Powering of and on remains sitting at the s3 load screen.
Any help would be appreciated.
Update: Ok not all hope is lost - I can get back into recovery, but restore while successful refuses to load past the s3 screen.
I'm a bit at loss now what to do - would factory resetting it do the trick?
Update 2: Tried a factory reset and still nothing - still sits at the s3 load screen.
Ok - I got a rom manually back on the sd card and reflashed a base rom.
Phone boots back into android. :good:
I have learned my lesson.
Yes, lesson is do not flash zips made for stock touchwiz when you are on AOSP, or vice versa.

Stuck in Bootloop after CM11

Hi Guys, I just rooted and installed CM11, no problems there. Then I restarted after a few hours of use and it got stuck on the samsung logo - I tried flashing CM a few more times, factory reset, full wipe, cleared cache still no joy.
I then flashed a stock rom through Odin and it still will not go past the samsung loading screen, the one which says 'samsung tab 3'
totally at a loss as to what to do
tried pushing a new rom to the device but cannot get my CPU to pick the device up when I type adb devices - its just blank
thanks.

Galaxy Note 2: Stuck In Bootloop

NoteII Randomly stuck in a bootloop with no access to recovery
I looked for two days around the web for fixes to this, tried flashing everything from roms (if i understand it correctly it's like a phone OS), through custom recoveries (the things that show up after the up/home/power button combo) and even a kernel. I know that I honestly shouldn't have done that without the full knowledge of what I did, but at 3AM I didn't think much. I think i even tried using PIT, but it got stuck and didn't go through.
Okay, specifics:
One day I pick up my phone and notice the big white letters - " (...) note II" etc, standard bootloop. Kinda surprising since I didn't do anything to the phone, but It had some problems before like deleting like 4-5 apps randomly once, or an icon or two disappearing. I tried the obvious method of recovery mode and clearing caches and such, but it didn't work:
after the button combination it briefly showed the "teamwin" blue logo of my recovery i used to have for like 2 years, and then it goes black, and the white letters show up again. Only the download mode shows up. Odin detects the phone and when i flashed a stock rom and some recoveries on it, odin said they "passed", but no change ensued, the recovery still showed teamwin's, even after flashing clockwork recovery, or whatever it's called. I basically accomplished nothing, and I need to know what to do specifically to fix the phone, without bricking it even more. can you guys point me in the right direction, or maybe try to diagnose the problem? Thanks.
-no recovery
-recovery flashing doesn't change anything
-download mode works, odin detects the phone
I've got the impression that you're trying to make two steps in one. I suggest to flash firmware through Odin, reboot, setup and then make wipes and factory reset in stock recovery. Then flash the custom recovery through Odin and all should be fine again.
Reminder: Don't flash firmware beneath your current bootloader version.
