You can try to download default samsung firmware from sammobile and use Odin to install the firmware. For me it works.

thanks for your replies mates!!
I do not understand what is the difference of the files that I flash with factory oxa the samsung firmware.
I understand that the firmware in samfirmware there is only one file within a zip to put in pda only and oxa factory has 5 it is mentioned in the first post to leave the factory.
or you mean that first flash of a file and then the oxa factory?
thank you very much:laugh:

[Q] About restore a bricked phone

Hi,
My phone is samsung galaxy note 2 N7100
I bricked my phone when rooting with odin. And now I can only enter the download model, any other is not available. I am not really sure how bad this situation is and I would like to try this method firs (thttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2154890). However, I cannot download the recovery package/rom required by that method, link provided has gone.
So if anyone know where I can find this recovery package/rom (a zip including different file like PIT, CSC, MODEM, BOOTLOADER, CODE... ) for my N7100?
Or is there other ways to get my phone back?
I am really desperate now and any thoughts will be appreciated!
Thanks

Did you flash 4.1.2 ? or greater? Try Samsung galaxy note 2 kit.. If you are able to enter the download mode, thats good.. you can flash using Odin or Heimdall. There are many rooted roms that will get you through. Dr Ketans has solutions. Try loading a stock rom from SAmmobile
Let me search for few links and post it from XDA devs

I actually have several roms in hand and I tried
1 Pre-Rooted Stock ROMs Samsung Latest Sammy NA dr.ketan
2 N7100 Odin STOCK leaked 4.3 version (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2466405)
Neither can get me through, seconds after start of flashing, it fails.
So I worry a little about my situation...
But I will keep trying and thank you!

the second matter i noticed that when the start up i found the bluetooth icon trying to turn to green like i'm turning the bluetooth on but a few seconds it didn't turn on even i try to turn it ! the bluetooth doesn't work at all !
the third thing when i recieve a call that turn on the proximty sensor automatically if i touch the sensor the screen go black but i lose the control and give me no response at all and i have to remove the battery and turn it on again !

sorry for my bad english

Two options I see:
1. Try to restore your device using Kies3
2. Flash newest firmware (get it from sammobile) for your region using PC-Odin.

Putting "need help urgently please :'(" does not help you in any way, in fact it makes it more likely that people will simply ignore the topic. Topic titles need to be descriptive, not generic non-descriptive.
Your problem is that like many newbies you cant be bothered to do research, read and learn before messing around with your device.
You should boot into download mode and flash a stock rom. Preferably a older one that doesn't have knox. Then flash a stock rom(without knox) in recovery mode. All the info you need is here on forum.

i forgot to tell that one of the things changed that my mobile lost the usb support in the normal mode as there is no change when i connect it to my pc except it charges only but it works in the download mode and when i reflash the stock rom v 4.3 the screen freezes after a few seconds of turning it on and i have to remove the battery .. do you think that flashing the 4.4.2 sthock rom will make a change ? as the solution of kies isn't possible due to the lack of usb support !
is there a way to format the sectors that the pation " param " which flashed by the sumsung star dous stock rom is in it and make that conflict to delete that ??

What was your last stock rom on your device before messing up?
I do absolutely not agree with those horror tales about knox, most people don't use and easily get rid of.
Do you remember your last bootloader? MK4 or above? Then don't take any risk by flashing 4.3 firmware and go straight ahead to 4.4.2.
It will be the safest way to get a working device again.

So you can also try the NA1 firmware, but nothing beneath that. NA1 is a knox enabled BL, so whatever you flash successfully will have Knox in it.
DON'T TICK REPARTITION!

1) Go to Sammobile
2) Find firmware for your region -> download
3) Find Odin 3.09 -> download and install
4) Start Odin 3.09
5) Plugin device -> see if Odin displays active com port
6) Go into download mode
7) Link firmware download in tab PDA/AP
8) Let Odin check md5
9) Press start button
10) Wait until display of com port in Odin turns green and says success.
All these steps could also be found with an easy Google search or in Youtube tutorials

OK, I see. Try a wipe from stock recovery, wipe all possible.
Another option: Kies!
I know, you said not recognized but you must get it to work. Uninstall all drivers from PC an re-install drivers until Kies can restore your device.
Very last option: Find a Samsung repair near to you.

As you mentioned you already have been on NA1 firmware and as it seems you have flashed latest 4.4.2 with "a kind of success" I find it hope- and useless to even try this rescue rom. Bootloader is the reason why you can't successfully flash. NO DOWNGRADE POSSIBLE.

Can you illustrate your words ? For kies it's unpossible to connect my mobile to any pc the drivers works perfectly for any similarphone the fault is in my mobile not the driver and for sumsung care it will be high cost as the warranty ended ! And I wipe every thing possible through the stock recovery but noyhing changed !

I am beginning to lose my patience cause you don't follow my advice or even don't consider that I am right.
Look into system on your PC if there is an unknown device.
Whenever hardware is connected to PC Windows starts to search for drivers.
It doesn't matter that other devices are recognized correctly.
Wipe all Samsung drivers and re-install. Even re-install Kies too.
Start Kies and try restoration, maybe it will fail, but try. AND with current drivers you are supposed to fail.
At last: Try to find a friend with knowledge who can help you at your home or his.

[Q] flashed official kitkat and kies wont recognize it

After running into some issues while upgrading to an official kitkat firmware I managed to boot up my phone but now it doesnt get recognized by kies even though its official. I also cant see which csc Im on since when I type in *#1234# it simply goes away from the screen as if its been wiped.
any clues? should i flash something else over?

Try flashing this in the attachments using odin the same wayy you did the stock firmware, just extract the rar file and use the .md5, and then do a full factory reset then it should recognize.

forget KIES ( completely useless) ! flash SamMobile's firmwares with ODIN !

Hi! I'm new in here.

So I wanted to turn to stock. So I downloaded the latest firmware H3G Italy 4.4.2 and flashed it with Odin 3.09 first and it didn't work and then with Odin 3.07 and it still didn't work. :crying: :crying: :crying: It is stuck on SAMSUNG whrite
Odin don't give me any errors. At the end it sees Pass! (something like that)
What can I do? Why stock is bricking my phone :crying:
Sorry for my bad english :crying::crying::crying:

He means emergency firmware but not exist for 4.4.2, this was for 4.1.2 and you cannot flash because your bootloader not leaving downgrade first and if you flash 2cond you loose your imei because of efs partition upgrade. Probably you haven't factory reset your phone before flash, go to recovery and factory reset your phone and restart.
