I think you can also use sfhub's one-click back to EL29 and use the autoroot tool to unroot.

Use the one-click method to get you back to EL29, since you're coming from an ICS ROM back to GB you should use the full rather than the no-data. One you've done that, then download and extract the autoroot tool and follow the prompts to get you to the unrooting. Make sure you have USB debugging turned on before using autoroot.

When you plug the phone in while in Odin mode, are you getting the yellow highlighted box with COMxx in it to indicate the computer is recognizing your phone?
Another possible path is to pop out your sdcard, put it into the computer and load up some files that can be flashed via recovery (if you have recovery installed) then reinsert the card, hold power and volume up button to boot into recovery and flash a new build that way.

I've been trying to use the one click option, my phone is recognized but it won't proceed to completetion, i guess it's bricked. Is there anything i can do?

So let me get this straight. You put your phone into Odin/download mode, start the one click, and it fails? Does Odin notice your phone while in Odin/download mode?

I know this is getting frustrating for you, but have you tried other one-click downloads? EL26 or even any of the ICS ones just to get the phone back on?
I'll see if I can re-route sfhub over here, maybe he knows of something we aren't thinking to try.

Idk it sounds like he either had a bad download or possibly didn't put it into Odin mode or something. Just a thought I suppose.

Okay if it is recognizing your phone then try downloading another one-click and using it, or even re-downloading the same one you already have.

So even if my device is bricked it will load this, as long as odin recognizes it?

[Q] unable to access cwm recovery

Hi all,
I have been using cyanogenmod 10 beta 2 for a long while, this morning after making a call, set the phone down for a bit. later when i picked it up, the screen wasn't coming on, so thinking it was some frozen application, reset the phone by pulling the battery out.
when it started booting up, it wouldn't go past the samsung splash screen. I was able to access cwm recovery (volume up + power button) at this moment though. someone on here advised that i should try a nightly but seeing as how i couldn't get access to put anything on the SD card, i flashed what i had at that moment, cm 10 beta 2 (didn't erase cache or dalvik). flashing this still resulted the phone not being able to get past the samsung splash screen but now i can't get into cwm recovery either. I am able to access odin mode though.
How would I go about solving this dilemma without losing user data if possible?

Flash el26 kernel in odin. Backup the rom in cwm. Either flash a new rom. Or odin a one click. Then use titanium backup pro to extract the apps from the backup. Only way I know how to do it. Others may chime in. As I'm sure that's not the only way

yeah i did, then volume up to go into download mode. there's was no progress bar on the phone after clicking start on the pc so i shut it off. I can still get into odin mode.
was planning on trying this "SPH-D710_FI27_CL1127689_Rooted_Restore_v2" next to see if that would work. really not sure what to do.

Are you sure that the proper drivers were installed? You should reinstall them either ways just to be sure. Then retry Odining your file

Blue light that blinks on and off or blue light that stays on?
On/Off might be saveable, just probably need to charge the battery on another device or external charger.

Tried 3.07 ,3.04 ,even 1.85 Bro!! No luck!!!

Try different port (if on PC better on backside)
Don't use any extension cable/usb hub
Disable firewall and antivirus
Uninstall kies and just install samsung usb driver (you get from my thread you are following)
Btw flashing my prerooted rom is exactly same with rooting with option one but even without raising counter.
But if you having problem that also fail flashing prerooted rom.

There is no other trick except said you. Rarely rae I have seen few cases (on note1)where device getting odin locked and nothing works
Still try calmly and follow to the letter to check nothing is missing. Note2 also reportedly not works on old usb 1 port, make sure pc you are trying having usb 2.0 port. I recommend xp machine.

Alright guys, thanks i fixed it. Apperently i was using the wrong stock rom verson of the N7100 instead of my SGH-T889V. The odin flash worked and now m y phones back up and running. Thanks again for all your help!

Bricked my phone...

I accidently wiped /system
1.I've tried Odin, couldn't get it flash AT ALL. I don't know if its the zip or what. But i cant for the life of me get it to work.
2.I've tried sideloading, I'm not sure if that worked or not, after i did that, it wont go past the Samsung Galaxy note 4 screen, just keeps booting then stops and goes the battery charging screen(I'm assuming my OS is back on the phone? i also don't get the NO OS installed! error when booting up)
I'm completely out of ideas on what to do here.

I believe the Odin stock tar you're looking for is OK1 from this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63868221&postcount=1
Most likely, the case is, you can't go from reactivation locked bootloader to reactivation unlocked bootloader. It's in the upgrade notes. Also check your phone display in download mode. If you were on one of those updates, your phone should say reactivation lock is disabled or something like that. It means the bootloader will allow a compatible flash. Enabled reactivation status would block even a compatible flash to protect original user from theft if he knowingly or unwittingly chose to enable it. You have to be careful because that's been described as an efuse. It could cripple your main board if flashing with it enabled. Maybe it takes multiple attempts to blow it, IDK but respect it... Try to get in the habit of checking phone display before Odin flashing.
Hopefully, it is not booting simply because there's still no OS. You wiped it and failed to flash because wrong tar was selected. I can say that the OB7 tar you flashed has a non-reactivation locked bootloader. So you cannot go backwards in Odin to it, if that's the case.
If your looking to flash an older ROM in recovery from the reactivation bootloader, it's been reported to be possible if you flash a 5.1.1 kernel after the old ROM flash in recovery. Stability and compatibility may vary by user and ROM. The question was even asked in this forum-KitKat Bobcat ROM IIRC- if possible to flash KitKat ROM and then Lollipop Android Touchwiz kernel and confirmed by at least one user. Nonetheless, no reason to doubt that but I recommend latest custom ROMs for compatibility.

Still looking for help.
Tried 0din, and the same error comes up as the post before.
Tried Kies but I need s/n and I don't have my box and no s/n on the back behind my battery.
currently downloading sammoblie rom. Hopefully this works.
the only other thing I can think of is putting a rom on my SD card and installing from TWRP

That may work too if you flash the right kernel with it. Well, that applies only if using an older ROM as I mentioned in my first reply... Did you read it yet?
BTW, KIES usually does that for rooted phones. It may only work if you set it up with same phone before root but unsure.

I can type out all the "download" screen info if needed.
But RA lock is off.

That's OK, don't need it. That confirms you have you a newer bootloader. That tar is blocked in Odin, for you. Best to move forward with Odin rather than backward.
Some stock tars later than OB7 have even been reported to be blocked but being on OK1, I only know I can go back OJ6 in Odin. Didn't try another because of that fact and OJ6 and OK1 are the best lollipop updates, IMO.
