Locked Bootloader

Hey i believe i have somehow locked my boot loader. I can flash the rom in the recovery mode but it does not show up after booting the device. Its stuck on juggernaut 5.0 which i was recently using. I factory reset my phone dozens of time but no luck. Tried every damn thing in the odin even took a developers help but no luck. Even he was shocked. The system seems to be frozen on juggernaut. Is there a way around this. I believe i cant even brick my phone since even odin doesn't flash anything

Really serious this time. So you cant get into download mode and have your phone recognized by odin to flash stock rom???. If you can get into download mode abd odin sees the phone, you should be able to put the stock rom in pda hit run and it should work. Have you tried using heimdall instead of odi ?

I can get into the download mode and can flash it through odin as well but once the flash is successful and when it autoboots after the stock is flashed it goes back into juggernaut rom rather than going into stock rom. I dont seem to get hold of anything. I deleted all my files manually like pictures and notes and stuff but once i rebooted the phone they were all back again. One of the developers even helped me step by step but that didnt even work he was rather shocked. He told me that your boot loader might be locked and he said i am not even sure you will be able to brick the phone!!!

sell it buy a new phone lol

What are you flashing? Stock ROM?

[Q] I tried to install a rom, stuck on boot animation, bootloader crashes

I decided to install Cyanogen Mod on my Nexus. I already rooted it and downloaded rom manager + titanium back-up. I watched a tutorial on how to download and install roms using rom manager and everything seemed to go as planned and Cyanogen 9 was installed. The phone automatically rebooted and the boot animation the Cyanogen started. But after a half hour I realized it was stuck. So I tried to go into recovery mode to restore my backup (of the stock) but when I went there, the phone automatically turn off. It's not when I click, it's just after a certain period. It even turned off while restoring. To make things worse, when I turn it on now, it's stuck on the Google logo with the unlocked slot at the bottom. I hope you guys can help me because I'm starting to freak out.

I did not delete evreything when I flashed

I backed up my stock rom
I did google but everything leads to bootloader which is broken

Where can I find this option and what does it do exactly? I have the Nexus Toolkit too, should I do anything there?

1.Don't panic
2. Try to go on bootloader then reset factory or fastboot then from pc flash recovery
3. Try to get back recovery then factory reset and flash backup

was it a nexus? maybe/probably not, but if it was, you should have used fastboot. it's officially supported by GOOGLE. if you want to flash a factory image, they tell you to use fastboot. why would we use anything else? a leak? that the community barely really knows anything about?
i'd rather use Heimdall!! (not sure i9250 is supported though.)

Failed Root Attempt On Previously Unrooted I317UCALK7 - Bricked?

I wanted to try an AKOP ROM or two on my completely stock, never rooted Note 2 running the OTA UCALK7 update. I followed the guide here (flash the SU injected stock UCALJ2 image) to root and now my note gets stuck at the Samsung logo. I have tried the following:
Downloaded the completely stock UCALJ2 unrooted image and flashed via ODIN.
Tried flashing both stock and rooted ROMs on another computer using the stock USB cable.
Flashed CWM touch via ODIN after flashing rooted UCALJ2 image, it can boot to CWM but fails miserably most likely to the lack of root.
My guess is it's bricked because sammy closed the root hole in the UCALK7 update and flashing back to rooted UCALJ2 isn't enough to bypass the patched exploit. Is there an ODIN flashable complete UCALK7 image that I can try (I've looked to no end, all I can find are rooted zips flashable via CWM) or am I really up the creek?

Pull the battery.
Hold the Center Home Button + Vol Down + Power
Slide the battery in.
If you do this right you can get into odin before the Samsung logo. I just had the same problem because I flashed the wrong recovery. It worked for me.

Thanks - I actually figured that part out since my second post. The phone boots after the factory reset however I don't get phone/data service. I've since tried flashing the two AT&T modems I could find, atti317ucalj2modemfixed.zip and ATT K7 Modem - Baseband.zip. Neither resolve the issue.

Thanks but I can't even enter the network configuration settings - it tells me to insert a SIM. My SIM is in the phone.

I'm having other problems too which I think are partition related. Apps are acting funny, saying there isn't space on the phone (dropbox can't download anything, etc). I'm trying to get TriangleAway installed so I can just RMA it but I can't even download it to my phone. Also a CWM fix permissions fails even though I grant it root access.

It's really simple..download firmware from Sammobile.com flash it in Odin.. u might get stuck on the Samsung screen, if that happens factory reset. Make sure your downloading right file...u r now messing with Odin and it doesn't forgive

I know what you're saying, I'm definitely using the right file and process. I'm a pretty seasoned veteran when it comes to rooting/odin/RSD/fastboot, etc. I've run custom ROMs on dozens of phones since the G1. What's happening to me is apparently not a common failure with the note 2 or GS3. Is there a PIT file available for the AT&T Note 2? I see one for the Verizon Note 2 but I wouldn't dare try to flash that.

There is a pit file around but I really don't think it's that.
And also just checking don't mean to insult ur intelligence but if u are using Odin it will be a .tar, if it's a recovery its I .zip

Yeah, it's a tar file I'm flashing through Odin, got it from SamsungUpdates: Samsung-Updates.com-SGH-I317_ATT_1_20121005095854_bpaaavv07o.
I also tried flashing the stock ROM in deodex'd zip form after I got a custom recovery on there, still no dice. The non-functioning modem and lack of proper root/storage affects both Sammy and CM/AKOP based ROMs. I don't know about the modem part but I've seen weird things like this when the NAND starts going bad and things written to it don't "stick." I don't think that's the case here since it's only on its 4th or 5th flash. More than likely the latter problem is a file system issue. I have no idea about the radio.
I'm going to try and exchange it tomorrow. At least I got the flash count cleared and I'm back on a stock ROM (with the same problems).

HELP PLEASE t889V stuck on Samsung logo

Hi Guys need help bad. I hope I didnt screw my phone up.
I rooted my phone using the latest toolkit and installed twrp. Once i did that I backed up everything including efs on the external card.
Once i did that I flashed Jedi x rom but did not have much signal so decided to flash another rom which was liquid smooth. Once I flashed it again
my signal was almost non existent. I downloaded a canadian modem in the zip file and flashed it using twrp the same way i would flash a rom.
After i did that i wiped all the data and cache and the system. As I was rushing it siince its late at night i got a message saying that I am not rooted. I ignored it and rebooted the system and now its stuck on samsung logo. What can i do? Please help!!!!!
It appears that when I hold vol up plus home plus power I can get into download mode. I hope that helps.
Can someone give me some help how to get it back to life. I am pretty sure I have to use Odin at this point but dont know how

Ok i did some reading and I think the next step is to download stock image for the wind mobile turn on Odin and upload the image to the phone..
What settings should I use in Odin? What should be checked at the top and am I to use PDA only?

You can use odin or just reflash the ROM. You said tout wiped system after flashing the modern. That means you erased what ever ROM was on there. It's sticking at Samsung because there is no ROM to boot into.

Well I cant get into TWRP and dont know how to flash a ROM through ODIN? I am total newb at this.
Could you give me some pointers once I open up odin what do i need to do ? Thanks

Have you puked the battery. Put it back in then held volume+, home and power? Your recovery should still be there.
Also, odin is easy. Just open it and click the pda box and put your stock ROM there. Two things make sure you put your image in PDA and PDA ONLY and make sure it's your official stock Image

Yup went back to ODIN and flashed stock image and everything is now working great. I assume that I need to root the phone again before attempting to flash any roms again. I guess it was late at night and like you said I wiped the rom and there was nothing to boot into. I am an idiot!
Thanks for your quick help !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In order to root again do i use the toolkit again or simply just download the pre-rooted rom and flash it with Odin? Which one would be better just
to get root again? Thanks!

When I did this approach, I did it in two steps. I downloaded factory image of the firmware and flashed the device by using Odin 3.0.7.
Next, I used a tool package called "Galaxy Note2 ToolKit." Follow the instructions for how to root.
When I did the procedure, the software also had an option to include clockworkmod recovery
and busybox.

[Q] Stock recovery flash through odin not working

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?

I successfully flashed Philz recovery through odin. Booted to recovery and went to wipe/reset for a new rom, then installed zip - CM11 (yesterday's version) flashed successfully, selected reboot, samsung logo flashed and then phone shut off.
Am I rooted automatically if I have Philz recovery? They only thing I can think of is I don't have an OS at all on my device or I am not rooted?

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%.

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?
