Your bootloop is an easy fix if you have not started odin flashing yet.
Just reboot into recovery and select "Factory Reset" then reboot the phone
and most of the time this fixes the problem, I should say at least 8 out 10
booloops can be fixed with a "Factory Reset" then reboot.
Good luck!

You can download the MDL tar from the Odin thread. Yes, you can flash TWRP through Odin. You can get the tar file here.

[Q] N7100 Boot Loop + Stuck at Samsung word

Hello everyone! This is my first post here, actually ive been here just for stalking and follow tutorials. this forum is the best for me and helped me a lot. But, 2 days ago, I got an issue that cant be solved by me by refering threads. So I decided to register to forum, and ask by myself.
Here's the problem.
"There has been sudden booting while I was using Facebook on my device, while I reboot it, it stuck at "Samsung Galaxy Note II -GTN7100" after a while, it reboot again. It happened suddently. It happens continously untill now. It has been 2 days I search through the forum but none can help me."
My device details while the problem occur :
ROM : Paranoid Android 3.99 RC2
Recovery : TWRP 2.6.3.0
kernel : stock
and my device can turn into download mode, and TWRP. but only cant boot into ROM.
I did try to flash many ROM via TWRP. And do fresh format.(Clean evrything via TWRP). Install various ROM and it seemed cant help to boot into the ROM.
I also try to flash stock from SAM, via Odin, but it helpless.
I also discovered that is not the power button issue, as i can boot into recovery without restarting by itself. So I think it is not about the power button.
I tried to use other recovery, and flash CWM via Odin, but cant get to CWM recovery mode. I also tried to flash stock recovery, but same as CWM. Only TWRP is working on my phone.
I searched thorugh the forum, and many ask to do factory reset, but it helpless for me.
Thanks everyone for any suggestion! and dont ask me to go to Samsung centre as my device warranty is expired.:cyclops:

The only thing i can suggest here is use odin and Flash 4.1.2..
after flashing it will reboot.. go to stock recovery and do a wipe..
that should help i guess..!

does it say anything about efs or pit being corrupted
well flash this http://d-h.st/fWr and try install any custom rom and get back with the result
and what about philz recovery that does not work even http://d-h.st/iII

Try flash cf-auto root through odin. Usually the phone will successfully booting after the auto root process done.

well it seems its time to it to service guys it should have booted fine or maybe the pit partition damaged is not letting it boot
if u have tried solving that way then finally to ss
flash pit partition http://d-h.st/Dlv,then flash the firmware stock

I read through the thread and was about to say what the above poster suggested. Make sure you tick repartition in Odin when you've input the pit file.

Sadly solve
Hello everybody.... I assumed that this topic now shall be closed since I sadly solved it.
The solution :
After trying stock ROM and cant enter stock recovery, I tried many official rom 4.1.2 and many custom rom, but nothing can help.
So I decided to go to Samsung centre, then they tried to flash with their own odin, so the same thing happened. After a few checkings, ive been told that my motherboard got problem. So I need to change a new motherboard but I dont want.
So, i decided to buy a brand new phone that same price as the new motherboard =.= .... Thanks to all that trying to help me especially mr Ankit.. Many2 thanks and i appreciate it.. Taking 3 days without sleeping to figure it out seems helpless..
If there are any possible solution, please share to me since Im still following this thread..

Continuing from my above post, I also faced the same situation...Samsung service center guys told me that my motherboard needs to be replaced and it would cost Indian Rs.7400/-, so I am going ahead with the replacement, as now also a new note 2 costs min. Rs.22k in India. And at the Rs.7500/- price point even the new 'Android One' phones launched by Google are no where near to the punch packed by Note 2.
Hope this post helps other beleaguered souls like me.

Pity, mate- but I think motherboard change will in fact provide you a new phone. Samsung has used some third party components that have not been so reliable. New motherboard will have aproven components.

[q] Strange reboot and bootloops

Hi everyone!
A friend of mine tried to flash/destroy his n7100 (i don't know why!) so He gave it to me to "play" and try to recover it.
I think that He tried to flash a 4.4.2 stock rom taken somewhere, so I have the lastest bootloader
I recovered it with KIES (that installed android 4.3) and the phone (now) boot completely and works at 100%!
BUT
sometimes when I detach it from power cord it immediatelly reboot and remain stuck at the "samsung galaxy note n7100" screen and bootloops.
If I reattach the power cord at the next poweroff/poweron cycle the phone start correctly and works 100%!!
Actually I'm on a full stock with root and TWRP installed, but this reboots happens also on full stock
It's really strange and I don't know how to get rid of this!
Actually the custom flash counter report 9 and the knox warranty void is at 1.
Someone has any idea of to get rid of theese strange reboots?

The only one that odin let me flash without problem is the one with 4.4.2 android from
N7100XXUEMK9_N7100ITVEMK2_N7100XXUEMJ9
every other bootloader I tried give me a flash error and the screen show "incompatible version".
This will solve also the reboot part?

Hello,
I have the same issues but I fear in my case these are early symptoms of a EEMC brick bug :crying:
I am on TWRP with Omega v24 and latest bootloader (i know because I have wifi, otherwise I would't have)
I got inconsistencies in the file system and today I had a UID mismatch message error at boot
I would like to format all the partitions (data/system/ecc) and flash a Rom via Odin just be sure...
Why are you sure that this rom should avoid reboot errors? Is there anyway to install this ROM or any other ROM via Odin so I can format all the partitions just to be sure?
Thanks!

You can flash with odin and repartition with your pit (or another from xda but be careful with that) your same stock and then flash the indicated rom so you have a clean installation

Do you have cwm? Then you can full wipe, then again you can format each partition separately, then go to android development thread, rom repository and download and flash stock rom, I suggested that specific rom because without the air command mod it's almost stock, without the Damned Knox.

Try to check md5 sum of downloaded rom. If incorrect, try to redownload.
If you backed up your rom before flashing, try to restore it.
Or, you can always flash a stock rom from sammobile using odin.
Goodluck.

I highly recommend custom roms cause they give the maximum which this old device can handle, even Note 4 features and Lollipop experience.
Look into Android development section and find one that you like.
You will need a custom recovery CWM or TWRP flashed through Odin depends on which rom you prefer and find in installation instructions of that rom.

OK, take TWRP - at least 2.8.6.0 from HERE and only which is named "t03g.img.tar" flash through Odin AP/PDA.
Go into recovery by pressing volume up + power + home button and flash rom saved on your extSD.
