So I was running 4.3 and was rooted on my note 2 on sprint. I had SuperSU and I did a unroot so I could upgrade to 4.4 I unrooted then rebooted then installed 4.3 then things started to go bad. I can get to download mode, but it wont boot past Smasung GALAXY Note II splash screen. Can't even boot to recovery mode. I have used ODIN to flash CWMR, TWRP, stock rom. And nothing works, if the image has a sboot.bin file, ODIN fails everytime. When I flash to correct stock rom ODIM passes but when it boots it boots to the a firmware update error but Samsungs kies just says connecting ... and doesn't ever connect. I don't know if i hard-bricked or soft-bricked my note 2 or if I am just doing something wrong. PLEASE help me I miss my phone lol.

I installed [4.4.2][27.07.14]Dr.Ketan Custom ROMV8.1 N3 & S5 Features MultiDPI - Goodbye edition., then flashed the ND3 bootloader via odin. It showed success but the phone is not booting and is stuck on the Samsung GALAXY Note II Screen and is not going past it. I then flashed the stock kitkat ND3 recovery. It showed success but phone didn't boot up. I then re-installed the ND3 bootloader, odin again showed success, but still no booting up.
Now i dont have access to any recovery. All I can do is to enter download mode.
What step am i missing out? Please help gentlemen.

I had philz 6.26 previously, then i flashed stock recovery via odin, then i again flashed philz 6.26 via odin, but i cant access recovery by the Vol UP+Home+Power combination.
i installed dr. ketan's v8.1
booted in.. it was working fine..
but as i was on older bootloader (MC3), i had wifi issue and phone not charging when phone switched off.
so i decided to flash ND3 bootloader.
i flashed it via odin, it showed success, rebooted the device but it didnt go past the Galaxy Note II startup image.
i had then read somewhere that flashing the stock ND3 bootloader recovery, the bootloader gets flashed properly,
but even then i couldnt get it to boot, and i had lost philz 6.26 recovery as well, which i anyways couldnt access to even earlier.
i then flashed philz recovery 6.26 again, but still cant get access via the 3 button combo.
so now, the 4.4.2 rom is presently installed, and i cant get the phone to boot. i can only make it enter download mode.
i tried to flash an old 4.1.2 firmware but that failed, and required a PIT file i suppose, which i dont have.
so thats all the problem.
Guys any help from from anyone will be highly appreciated.
The main cause of the problem is that I tried to install TWRP custom recovery on my galaxy S4 while it had the MK2 baseband on it. now every time I try to upgrade the phone it gets bricked and goes into download mode. I then flash SGS-I337_16GB.pit using odin 3.09 and then odin tells me that the flash failed, However when I restart my phone it boots up to normal.
I just want to install android L 'cause I HATE touchwiz! help please :crying:
I am am trying to take my Samsung i317 AT&T Note 2 back to stock.
Installed 4.4.2 NJ1 stock rom using ODIN. Reset/ cleared and started phone and went to OTA upgrade the latest patch from AT&T to make it to NJ2. However, when the phone reboots, the Samsung Note II logo shows up and the screen does dark. When I try to enter recovery, it starts to reinstall the OTA patch all over again and says updated. Tried turning the phone back on and the same thing happens again.
I was able to get the phone to work by reflashing the NJ1 stock rom and installed the ZIP stock recovery file using CWM. However, I am trying to get back to the original stock configuration as possible without having CWM installed on the phone and was hoping I can install the stock recovery so that when I go to download mode, everything shows Samsung Official. Knox Warranty Void is at 1, so I guess there is nothing I can do to fix that at this point.
Would installing this be the simple fix by downloading 4.3 Param.bin and Tz.img
Another would be to install the stock recovery ZIP file using CWM as I have already successfully done and maybe someone can point me to find a way to uninstall the CWM afterwards. I've searched online to remove CWM but couldn't find the md5.tar file that would do that from ODIN.
My brother rooted his phone and flashed a custom ROM but decided to go back to stock because YouTube would not work with the 60FPS. He used Samsung Kies to go back to stock ROM it didn't work He got an error saying "Frimware Emergency Recovery" in Kies.
When he saw that he took out the battery and got an error saying "Frimware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again" on his phone. He putted his phone on download mode and used Odin3. V1.85 and rooted his phone and flashed CWM and SuperSU. HE flashed the CM 12.1 Nightlies he was able to go back past the Samsung boot but gets stuck on CM Boot. In Odin it won't work it says Failed when he wants to go back to stock ROM. He cant go to CWM he has to root it using odin to go into the custom recovery mode.
____Upgrade_and_Initi…___AT_T_Samsung_Galaxy_Note_II___XDA_Forums[1].png IS what he got in Samsung Kies.
WP_20151031_21_37_27_Pro[2].jpg IS what he got when he took out the battery and putted it back in
WP_20151031_21_36_16_Pro[1].jpg Is what he gets when in Download mode.
I believe the issue is from trying to downgrade your bootloader. You need to flash the correct rom.
Hi, i've been searching and searching but can't find an answer.
Device: Note 2 i317m
Bootloader: i317mvlalj2
Android: 4.1.1 JB
My Note 2 was running good with custom recovery (TWRP 2.8.0.0, i believe) and custom rom (Resurrection Remix 6.0) for a yr or so. I do get random reboots here and there but not that often.
Suddenly on April 1, the phone just reboot and was stuck in a bootloop. I figure i'll boot into recovery and wipe/cache/dalvic. Guess what, I can't even get into recovery. It got to the TWRP screen and it just rebooted.
I then decided I will re-flash TWRP, everything pass in ODIN 3.09. It still rebooted after the TWRP screen.
Ok, fine. i'll take the risk and wipe my entire phone by flashing Stock Rom. Flashed it with ODIN 3.09. Everything went well, ODIN PASS. Phone rebooted and guess what, its stuck in bootloop with RR logo.
I flashed my phone with many files, different version twrp, 4.1.1 and 4.1.2 then finally 4.4.2 stock rom, different version of ODIN and also CF auto root.
Also the weird thing, my counter is stuck at 3.
I read a lot of forums stating it could be eMMC or partition corruption. But I didn't encounter any of the symptoms mentioned.
Any ideas or suggestions?
Thanks in advance

First. Update TWRP to the latest. Then try it again. You need to flash from 4.1 to 4.3 then update to a newer rom. SD card reading changes thru these roms do it in steps
