I used factory reset and now my phone is stuck at the tmobile logo. I was rooted before but I removed SuperSU before doing the factory reset. I also tried wiping out the data at recovery mode but I'm still having the same problem. Is there anyone that can help me fix my Note 2?

I hope you didn't wipe system my mistake
Wiping /system is a trivial problem to solve, just flash again and voilà.
What are you trying to accomplish exactly? If you want back to stock, flash the appropriate ROM with Odin, boot to stock recovery, factory reset and call it a day. Unless you've messed up your NV items or done something incorrect with the bootloader, that's pretty much all there is to it.
I wiped out the cache partition at recovery mode and now my phone is working just fine. The reason I factory reset my phone because I want to try if the system will let me update OTA after a reset. Unfortunately it won't let me update still because my phone was rooted. Is there a way to bypass this so I'd be able to update my phone?
Ah! Flashing back to a non-rooted ROM would allow the OTA mechanisms to work normally.
There's inherently a risk for a ROM update to patch something that's been modified in ways it does not expect, such as root on a stock ROM.
In the case of Samsung devices, you could always Odin flash back to stock, or a pre-rooted stock image.

Well I've always been on stock. I just rooted my phone before for some apps and that's it. I never use any custom rom. Im still at stock but wont let me update still
Consider yourself as "custom" the moment you change anything on your /system partition, that includes root.
Samsung ROMs have this check that's displayed somewhere in settings, where your ROM will say if it thinks it's been modified. If so, OTA updates will be disabled.
Factory reset alone won't completely unroot you. You must unroot, then factory reset.
At this point, since you just want a stock rooted ROM and have already factory reset, you could flash the latest pre-rooted ROM with Odin. Will probably be simpler than prodding the phone into getting the OTA.
Was on 4.4.2 stock NJ2...Odin'ed a custom recovery like TWRP...rebooted.....NO IMEI and BASEBAND. That's about as simple, yet complex it gets. Tried reverting back to stock recovery in Odin, only to find that NO IMEI and BASEBAND still shows up. THE ONLY way I've successfully kept the IMEI/BASEBAND....is by keeping everything stock, from recovery to rom. Why would this be? I've even tried restoring the EFS folder....to no avail!!!! I'M FRUSTRATED!!!! My end goal is to be able to flash a rom, use TWRP/CWM, and KEEP the IMEI/BASEBAND!!!
ANY HELP? ANYONE having the same issue or fix?
THANKS!!!!!!:good:
Possible fix...
Make sure you have not used device encryption on the rom prior to your desired rom...
If you have then a device full wipe script is needed to clean up the phone prior to flashing the new rom...
(don't forget to check your SD card for encryption or data files that may be affected)...
Flash TWRP version 2.8.6.0 and flash your new rom....
Higher TWRP versions have been buggy for me...
Best I've got atm....g
It's because you are using TWRP 3.0.0.1, that one is broken
Hey guys, how can you full factory reset that it will revert back to stock recovery without accessing the custom recovery because it can't be open. Please i need a quick response to this, I noticed that my phone became buggy after a while after I flash custom recovery from this forum. Maybe a step by step with details because I'm not really good with this rooting, flashing and custom recovery thingy eheh
So you want to restore only the stock recovery and not the full rom?
Why can't the custom recovery you have now be opened?
What have you flashed on your phone, why is it buggy? What rom do you have etc..
Does your phone work? Like can you use it?
Someone please explain this to me. Idk if it's because I've been out of the rooted/custom rim game for so long or if I've gotten dumber in my old age. Also this is the first ohone I've ever had to even think about it with.
So I:
Boot into TWRP
wipe /data
Boot back into os
Profit?
Or boot back into TWRP
Flash dm-whatever the hell it's called
Boot into os
Profit?
Also, is any if this necessary at all just to flash a different rom? Being encrypted has no bearing on my life, so I don't care if I am or not.
EDIT: I'm currently going back thru old posts so I'll delete if I find my answer before there's a reply.
If you've installed TWRP you can just flash a custom ROM unless the ROM says something about "dm-verity required [disabled/enabled]". Disabled, means no encryption. Enabled is encrypted.
Any time you flash a different ROM you need to Factory Reset. Otherwise CustomROM 1.2 to 1.3 is usually safe to dirty flash (no data wipe).
Ok. Just making sure I wasn't screwing up by flashing like I normally would:
Wipe
Rom
Gapps
Root
Reboot
Verity if it says to in the OP of the rom thread.
How does this dm-verity business work? Whenever I try to flash a later OOS version without a "format" when it boots I always get the encryption failed message. Will flashing the dm-verity .zip fix that?
This phone is a real pain in the backside to flash with. TWRP backups usually fail, encryption issues and all that stuff. On my last phone it was flash and forget. What happened?

You only need to flash no-dm-verity if you want to run an unencrypted rom. All OOS ROMs are encrypted so of course you're going to get encryption failed. Omni has encryption and so does Liquid Remix now, so you don't need the verity file at all, unless you want to stay unencrypted on a ROM that supports it. Since you have been decrypted by flashing the verity file, if you want to go back to OOS, you will now need to format data (at the bottom right in wipe menu) in TWRP after flashing OOS. This will wipe all user data. DO NOT flash no-dm-verity again! If you think this phone's complicated, don't buy an Essential or any device with A/B partitions, it's a nightmare.
Edit: Actually I'm not sure if you can run OOS unencrypted or not (never tried), but if you want to restore factory encryption an flash back to stock, you have to restore the stock recovery. This guide by The Doctor will help you: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5t/how-to/how-to-revert-to-oos-oreo-8-1-t3730952/page4
If you just want to run a custom ROM encrypted, formatting data in TWRP should work.
every time i flash custom rom its just going to bootloop. i think its because of encrytion.
when i restore twrp stck backup. the touch is not working properly. it requires two touches simultanously to touch any thing.
how to disable encryption? plz help
You can disable decryption by formatting the data partition in TWRP. Of course you will delete all data in the process. And I kind of doubt that encryption is causing your problems.
Are you sure that you are flashing the right ROM for your bootloader? Which Android version did you have on your phone before, and which version are you trying to flash?

what ROM?, what procedure (RSDlite, manual, etc?)are you using to flash ROM - and what bootloaders?
i wiped everything including internal storage. flashed rom successfully. but after reboot again bootloop happen. so went into twrp then again its asking password to decrypt.
now i flashed stock firmware using adb. i wasted whole day just to get root access and still didn't got one
I just put a few guides at the top of MZP Guides etc - start there and we'll see how it goes. RSDlite-ing a phone can cure a lot of ills.
