Ah, that happened to me too. I just did the Odin process again & it worked fine. Mine had been stuck on the setup connection part...
the white unicorn.

Well did it work?

Thanks for all the info guys. I use odin v 1.35 for my 10.1 gtab, but I can't seem to get odin 1.85 to run on my computer, I keep getting an error in another launguage, so I'm going to use another computer. Ill let you know how it goes.

Recovery issue..I think?

I had the regular cwm recovery, flashed the touch version, been working fine. But tonight when doing a nand backup it failed at the cache backup. I couldn't get back into recovery mode, the closest I got was download mode(not Odin) I was having problems rebooting my phone, it started going into car mode. I downloaded cwm again from the market and was finally able to get back into recovery. Tried flashing a Rom, rebooted and the screen lit up black and that's it. Took me many tried to get into the recovery again, finally did a nand restore, and it was all flickering car mode rapidly. I can't get back into the recovery still, only download mode.

That doesn't sound good. Have you tried ODINing to TWRP or the non touch recovery?

I can't seem to get into Odin mode. I'm using my phone now though, just can't get in Odin.

totally confused. Download is Odin... you get into this when you're connected to the PC and do the volume buttons + power.
to get into recovery make sure you're not connected to a PC.

When it goes into this mode it says download mode. Odin mode said Odin mode..

download mode is odin mode you cant do odin unless you are in download mode. i am confused? what do you mean odin says odin download says download. i think i know what you mean but just asking if you know odin is download mode not to say you are a noob.

Before when I would use Odin, my phone would say Odin. Yesterday it would only say download, after flashing twrp touch it seems fine.

I had this issues once before, turned out to be the kernel causing the issue. Did you change your kernel since the last time you backed it up?

Nah I haven't messed with any kernel on this phone just Roms. I think cwm got all frigged up and something happened.

[Q] Please help, I think its bricked

I tried to go back to stock using the Galaxy Note2 ToolKit V4.1.0/Odin. While Odin was flashing the stock image about 15% through it failed. My phone was stuck in download mode, and no matter what I tried I couldnt get out so I had to pull the battery. Now I cant get into recovery (guessing its gone) and when I try to power on or go into recovery my phone says Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. please select recovery mode in kies & try again. Now ToolKit cant do anything, it just gets stuck on waiting for USB debugging to be enabled.
Is there anything I can do or is it toast?

Try flashing the firmware again. It should help.
Hit thanks if I helped!!

I tried several times

Does anyone have a link to the original stock .tar? Im trying to download it from samsung but its extremely slow and won't finish for a couple hours. I think I can put my phone into download mode and flash it straight from Odin.

Then try doing what it says. Go to recovery using kies and flash..

I cant get to kies...my phone has no rom, no recovery...the only thing I can access is download mode,
EDIT: Fixed it. Thanks for the replies.

[Q] Phone does not boots on recovery mode

Somehow got my phone stuck, it does not boot into recovery mode, it does not show the boot logo, however it boots on download mode and ramdump mode, I have tried to install CWM using heimdall but it fails while attaching the interface, i can't boot into the OS, what can i do?

If you can go into download mode, just flash stockrom using Odim

Is there any science to get odin running? I always get a problem when starting the installer even with the antivirus down.
I downloaded 3.0.9 and 3.0.7 both with matched md5 and both seems broken.
Apart from that, should i need kies to run odin?

Nope, but you need Samsung USB drivers, to get the correct Odin and other files, click the following link: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/7fruf0tmykh0ggd/AABpLEWmrRwUcyH32XEzFd56a

There is no way I can get odin to detect my phone, I have followed all the instructions but no success
I have tried heimdal and it happens the same,
I have heard that using seotool or something like that and making test points i can repair the phone recovery, is that true? where can i find docs referring to that.
What do you suggest me to do?

Boot loop into TWRP on N5110

Ok, I am an idiot! Let's get that out of the way first.
I rooted my N5110 using Mobile Odin with no issues. I was so excited about getting air command that I did not flash correctly and I started to boot loop on the splash screen.
I Odin'd TWRP (amongst other recoveries) and am unable to flash any ROM.
I was getting the #7 error and I researched how to get rid of it, but I don't believe that is my issue.
I tried to Odin the stock ROM, but keep getting the sboot.bin error and Write errors.
I then felt my bootloader was bad, so I successfully odin'd the k. K bootloader, but I still get the errors.
I have researched for hours and have tried all I know to try.
My next step is ADB with TWRP and Android SDK. I will try that when I get home.
I have wiped everything multiple times.
I have been unable to find a .pit file that will allow me to repartition. It keeps getting errors in Odin.
Most of my errors in TWRP say there are partition issues.
I can't believe I am hard bricked because I am able to easily get into recovery and download mode.
I don't believe the motherboard is bad because Odin is able to write the recovery files.
I am certain there is an easy fix that I am to ignorant to know about.
Can anyone shoot me some ideas?

I am currently stuck on Odin, trying to re-partition. It says Get PIT for mapping..
And does not look like it will be getting that PIT anytime soon.

I'm not an expert on the subject but if it was me I would try switching recoveries by flashing PhilZ in TWRP and see how it responds.
May not solve a thing but won't hurt anything either. Most of the Devs recommend using PhilZ recovery to flash KK roms for better compatibility.
