My phone froze yesterday, so I tried to reboot. Strangly, it couldn't boot anymore and it was on a loop with the "galaxy note II" logo.
I tried wiping, but it changed nothing, so then i tried a full wipe and re flashing the rom i had been using for a while "DN3". Again, nothing. For the final attempt I tried flashing a stock rom - here I thought I had some develpoment because it passed the "galaxy note II" screen, but unfortunatly didn't pass the "samsung" screen.
So what else can I try?
I'd really appricaite your help. I'm helpless.
I'm not sure if that matters, but just in case it does - I have "knox warrany void: 1" in the download mode screen.

well brother there have been several times i have faced this issue and right now also tring to survive the same problem
no of causes there may be and one of them is just because of battery issue
you would have not done the custom rom thing may be you have lost you mother board so try seeing the nearest service center once

Try flashing twrp and do a full wipe with that including internal sd card. Don't worry about the extsdcard. Then try flashing latest stock rom again
I tried TWRP with no success. I'll go tomorrow to a service center and will update just for the sake of future intrest.
Anyway, I've started to look for a new device. :crying:
Edit: Just an update - as I expected, the internal flash memory was broken, therefore all the symptoms.

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.
Hi,
I recently tried installing the new 4.3 update onto my Samsung Galaxy S3 I747. Also, I never rooted my phone and my carrier is Telus if that matters.
When my phone finished updating, it lead to the lock screen. Just as I was about to enter my pin and unlock it, the phone restarts and gets stuck on the Samsung splash screen. I have tried entering into recovery mode and then wiping the cache and restarting it, but no luck.
I do not wish to restore my phone back to factory settings because I do not want to lose my music and apps. Is there a solution that can fix it without wiping the memory?
Thanks.
edit: i left it charging for a few minutes while it was stuck on the samsung splash screen, and then it went to the lockscreen and restarted it self
... i have to wait five minutes before i can save my edit
editedit: it just went to lockscreen for a second again
editeditedit: its going back to lockscreen quite often and restarting it self

When you got it into recovery did you try to wipe data/factory reset??
But to be honest it sounds like your phone is soft bricked maybe. I'm experiencing the almost same problem with my AT&T sgh-i747. Mine is stuck at the Samsung Galaxy S III screen and doesn't go any further than that at all.
You will most likely have to do that same thing I am doing which is reflashing android 4.3 via odin. It may work for you, I'm pretty sure it'll work for mine. Head over here and read this thread and see if this can help if not let me know and we'll come up with somethin else to help you fix your phone. (If I'm correct following this thread and flashing via odin will not erase and of your data.)
Your only other real option is to install the 4.3 MJ2 leak via heimdall. http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2496425
Heimdall will flash odin files. http://glassechidna.com.au/heimdall But odin will not flash heimdall files. It works much like odin flash in download mode so i'm told. I'm trying to figure it out now. I hope this helps.
I was never able to get the above Heimdall installed correctly on my pc. I am still stuck at the black and white galaxy s3 screen. I installed TWRP via odin to try my to run my nandroid i made earlier today and it says successful. But when I go to reboot It says No OS are you sure you want to reboot. I was already on 4.3.3 via the OTA update like you. And now i'm here turn phone on and it's going straight to download mode
Please HELP US BOTH Someone ANYONE
I've been running a rooted pm-600 with clean rom for a week now. I decided to try the new megablast rom and after carefully following install instructions (all wiping done and zip install via twrp2.6.3.3.) I was stuck at the Samsung screen in the boot mode. After giving it some time and not getting past the Samsung screen, I tried restarting and the same thing happened. I used was able to go to download mode and used odin on my pc to flash back the stock rom, but I am still stuck at the Samsung screen. I get the galaxy note 10.1 2014 splash screen, the start up music, blue circle, but then it just hangs at 'samsung'. I have tried restoring stock twice now with the same results. Any ideas :crying:

The only avialable option for you now is getting into stock recovery, wiping data , cache & dalvik., you will loose your data on your internal card, but no other choices.
Thanks for the advice. I discovered that this was in part triggered/or perhaps caused by the failure of a brand new Samsung micro sdxc card. Very frustrating, had just gotten it the day before and all my recent nandroid backups were on it Appreciate the help
Sent from my SM-P600 using xda app-developers app
I screwed up.
I wanted to install a new custom mod after purchasing a new SM-P605. I rooted my device, and searched for a while on how to install a custom recovery (TWRP). I downloaded ODIN and flashed it a couple of times but it didn't work, I kept getting a "recovery is not seandroid enforcing" and the screen freezes.
Then I tried Rashr's flash tool to install TWRP for me, and afterwards selected "boot into recovery".
Now i'm stuck in the same screen, but whenever I tried to restart, i get back to it, and can't get back in the system.
What can I do?
I'm unfortunately stuck in a very similar situation.
I was updating the firmware on my tablet to 4.4.2 downloaded off Sammy mobile, uploading using Odin. I've done this dozens of times since my S2 which was 12 handsets and 6 Android tablets ago. This time, about a third of the way through the process hung for a few minutes then the device restarted without warning and now its stuck in a loop where it starts normally

Then says
RECOVERY BOOTING...
RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING
Set Warranty Bit : recovery.
Then this
http://imgur.com/Ua1nmhi [2]
and stays on that screen for short periods before rebooting and starting the above again.
Thanks in advance for any tips or help you guys can provide!

Thanks, but it turns out the solution to my problem was simple. I took it to the place I got it from and the guy just pressed power, vol and menu button long enough until it rebooted. I'm quite a noob it seems.
I'm not sure if it will help you Nationalmaverick, because my problem was slightly different.
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.
