Phone Soft Bricked Odin Error - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

SGH-i747
Rom
Paranoid Android for about six months
The phone began to freeze and go to black screen about 24 hours ago with app freezes as well. This morning the black screen was more frequent, so I flashed back to stock.
Odin went all the way through and booted back to Samsung screen where it was stuck for about ten minutes and went dark again.
I pulled the battery and went through a vibrating boot loop.
So I went to clockwork recovery and did the two wipes. I got an error. I cannot remember the error I'm afraid.
I no longer have access to clockworkrecovery although I've tried to flash it with odin with odin claiming success.
I tried stock again and got the same error.
So I downloaded a boot image: boot-stock-att-sgh-i747.tar that went through but it didn't. Just went to the black screen from hell.
Tried stock again, got the same error.
I've tried Odin 1.85, 3.0.4 and 3.0.7
I've also shut down kies and tried all of my usb ports.

Possible brick

I had to resolve to making a thread because google isn't helping... And I've looked through everything.
I was running Hurricane rom v6 and I wanted to upgrade to the latest version, so I went ahead and tried to install the mj5 bootloader. I followed all the instrcutions but something didn't seem right... Right after the flashing process in Odin finished, my phone rebooted into the recovery (CWM PhilzTouch) instead of rebooting to the OS. I went to check if the new bootloader was installed and I don't think it was, because it didn't say KNOX WARRANTY VOID as it was supposed to, according to the instructions.
So I tried it again a few times and eventually what happened is that I got the "go into Kies and do the emergency recovery etc" which I did, a few times, unsuccessfully. It failed every time. So I uninstalled Kies, went back to Odin, tried to a few other ports, and finally it finished the flashing process successfully.
Now I can get into both recovery and download mode, but when I try to reboot the phone, the Galaxy Note 2 logo shows up, after that the screen goes black and then the phone vibrates every two seconds until i remove the battery.
I tried going back to recovery and then factory reset the phone but still the same thing happens. Now I'm downloading the stock firmware from samsung to try to flash that since I can still get to download mode but it's going to take an hour and until then I wanted to ask if the vibrating behavior was normal or it indicated a more serious problem. In all fairness I haven't tried installing the new version of the Hurricane rom after I tried flashing the new bootloader, but I figured that as long as I don't know that I have the new bootloader for sure I'd rather skip that step.
Any ideas?

Note 2 Hangs At Boot Screen \ Odin fails

My note 2 was working fine on CM 11 for a few months. Came to take it off the charger a few days ago to find it boot looping(worked fine a few hours before) and would just show the Samsung Galaxy Note II logo for ~30 secs then reboot\ vibrate over and over again. Tried to reboot to recovery but same thing happens and it hangs on Galaxy Note II logo. Once in a while after a battery pull, I can get it to show the cyanogenmod logo but it just spins until the battery runs out and never boots. I can however enter download mode. I tried to use Odin to flash stock image. Odin begins flashing but always fails on boot(have tried many images). Have tried to flash cwm\ twrp but odin fails on recovery. Is there any hope to fix this or is it just done since it randomly failed rather than after a flash. Any suggestion or just buy a new phone\ mobo?

i317 note 2 stuck on samsung logo.

Was rooted, and tried to flash MIUI v5 4.8.8. Couldn't do it. So, after reading MIUI forums, they said cannot flash their rom with a touch recovery (TWRP), so I tried to re-flash CWM, wouldn't work. Tried CWM through Odin, nada. Then the phone was in a Samung logo screen, (black and white), and stayed there. So I opened Odin, and reflashed a stock rom UCUNE5 (which worked once before), and Odin said it passed, but when it rebooted, it stayed on that black and white samsung logo. I tried to do it again, and it passed again, but it will not get out of this screen. I cannot get to recovery, it stays on that screen. The only thing I can do is go into download mode, but nothing seems to be working. Have I bricked it beyond repair?

Stuck booting into TWRP

Hi guys, relatively new here.
To start of I wouldn't say that I'm a complete noob when it come to this sort of stuff but I'm at a bit of a loss here.
To sum up my issue real quick;
My Galaxy Tab 3 SM-t210r running 4.1.2 stock that I rooted a while back started acting strange. Google services begun to unexpectedly shut off or stop working and I was getting annoying os popups so I decided to install a new custom, debloated rom.
After a few quick google searched ended up downloading StockROM-Ultimate Edition for the t210r.
Launched into TWRP 2.8.0.0 recovery, did a wipe and installed said zip of rom.
Now the issue that arose here is that I can't seem to boot into the os at all. Upon restarting or powering off and on I am greeted with the Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 splash screen, it hangs there for about 10-20 seconds, reboots(screen goes black?) that same splash screen shows up and I'm booted back into TWRP.
After countless googles searches I decided to unroot and go back to stock FW.
I've found the correct 4.1.2 stock rom on sammobile. Opened up Odin 3.07 and flashed. Everything goes good, Odin says RESET, tablet reboots, same two Samsung Galaxy screens and I'm back into TWRP. Odin indicating PASS! after a few seconds in twrp. Whether I reset to factory setting in TWRP or not, after flash, I'm always ending up in TWRP with the os never booting.
tldr; stuck in TWRP boot loop after custom rom and even stock rom flash.
Any assistance would be great
-Dan
