Wrong forum
First please read XDA rules #1 & #15. There is a Q&A both here and in the device forum where I quickly searched and found this post on how to restore your phone to stock.
Your phones forum is really the best place to ask such a specific question. Ranting in the General Discussion/General section will only get you generalities.
good luck with your phone. Ya shulda boughta SONY

Here is a guide I have put together for the VZW Samsung SCH-I605 Galaxy Note II
------------------
This guide contains 5 sections:
Section 1: How to Root/ Return to Stock 4.1.1 Jelly Bean coming from any rom with Odin
--------------------
Section 1b: How to return to stock 4.1.1 Jelly Bean coming from any rom with Odin
Step 1: Download and install Odin3 from section 1a if you have not already done so.
Step 2: Download this stock VRALJB image and pit file to a windows based pc.
Folks that have accepted the L4 OTA can not use the VRALJB image at this time...for now use Root66 from section 1a.
Official VRALJB 4.1.1 12/9/12- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2040264(This will wipe data and return your device to factory stock like the day you purchased the device. Also Unlocked and Locked devices may use this to return to Factory Stock conditions!)
SCH-I605_16gb.Pit- http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?05cj895zu3tls7z
Step 3: Power device off, hold the volume down/home/power keys until you see a yellow triangle, then press the volume up key to access "odin or download mode".
Step 4: Open Odin and connect the oem usb cable from pc to device. The driver should automatically install( it did for me on windows 7 64bit). There should also be a "comport number" in upper left hand corner of Odin indicating communication between the pc & device.
Step 5: Click on the pit function of Odin and select the sch-i605-16gb.pit file.
Step 6: Click on the PDA function of Odin. Select the stock VRALJB image you downloaded in step 1, then select start. This operation should take less than 8 minutes before Odin will say pass/reset.
Step 7: Your device should boot back up into factory stock 4.1.1 android!

Lol. Odin back to stock. Looks like you should try to understand what retarded clutter outdated garbage nerdspeak babble you're doing to your phone before you go ahead and do it. Have fun with Verizon tomorrow, I'm sure they'll be thrilled to accommodate you.

That is a good place for someone to place an order for spoon fed customer support.
I have already provided a solution found in his devices forum.
As there has been no update on progress I figured the issue was resolved.

Judging from the original post, I think you used too many 10 dollar words. Lol
thanks for the help ya A-holes lol greatly appreciated
UPDATE: first: sorry about the A-holeness, lol i had dealt with verizon on the phone for WAY TOO LONG! and you know how that feels
:beating-head-against-the-wall
and for the life of me could not find a solution to fix the issue
Second, i was able to return to "normal" status, apparently the google wallet hack was the problem, but still had no 4G, they replaced the simcard which fixed it and also somehow changed the status back to "modified" ??? then an hour later the phone went into a boot loop vzw said they would send me a "certified like -new" phone, still not sure if i should just accept the "like-new" or keep my original (now working because i flashed it back to stock with some guide that some A-Hole posted )
flash back to stock and forget this website ever existed. you're only going to hurt yourself further if you keep trying.
Wow this is the garbage replies I was referring too. You obviously cant read.i did flash back to stock and why would I forget this site. Ive been here wayy longer than you. And why dont you keep your useless comments to your self. Why would you run your d-sucker to provoke someone. I posted my apology but not to you.

He probably read your first post and quit reading since you were an @ss, that's why I and most others here didn't help you. If you would have just asked instead of insulting everyone here you would have got a link to a back to stock thread, and if you had anymore specific questions you would have been helped. Judging by this response you weren't just annoyed at the time, your just an @ss who has no idea what he's doing, and Iphone would be perfect for you, it's idiot proof.

Glad you recovered your phone.
If it was me I would keep the one you know works. Let Verizon send the second hand phone to someone else.
Just remember that opinions are like a§§holes, everyone has both.

Google wallet hack has nothing to do with triangle notification and 4G signal being dropped. You probably rooted wrong. If I were you, I'll just keep my original note2 and figure out to clear the mess. There is always solution to this and every methods are currently workable.
Ahaha now he's threatening me over pm's. This is wonderful. Listen champ, dickhead posts are going to get dickhead replies. Absolutely nobody, here or anywhere else in the world, is going to pander a friendly response after you insult them while begging favors. Learn this now while you still can, you're going to have a very unhappy life if you can't learn how to cooperate.

ok..so here's the problem i have a Samsung galaxy s2 i777 from track-phone/straight talk (im not sure what it is...) it was sold to me online i reset the whole phone and this cyangenMod thing keeps coming up when it boots up after the factory reset I don't want it on the phone but i have no idea how to uninstall it or get rid of it. i just want to get the phone back to how it came out of the box like a new phone but i'm at a lost i've tried the oden program and the phone wont connect to it. i don't know what files it needs or what i have to do i'm at a complete and total loss...
if someone could help me out with this it would be a REALLY big help to me thank you to anyone who reads this and an even bigger thank you to the person(s) who help.
Why would you want to get rid of CyanogenMod? It's quite possibly the best thing to ever happen to phones.
Especially if you're running cm10.1, it's 4.2.2

You want to get rid of it? Easy
Option 1: return it to seller, demand s/he send you another one with pure stock firmware on it, not a custom one or request for the refund.
Option 2: reverse back to stock (from CM) yourself. Since you're here, you should have read anyway, so read up those threads especially the stickies and DIY.

The other posters Actually have given you good advice, and it appears that they have pointed you to the place to answer your question! Really!
It sounds like you have a modified Straight Talk phone (please note that the ATT version is I777 and the ST version is S959G. It would be interesting to know whether you have an I777s or S959G).
IF you have an S959G, then your best bet is to check the thread posted down below as Phalanx and the others have mentioned --it's literally below the post you created (several posts below now, just look for the title "Straight Talk SGS2- SGH-S959G" (<- or click on these "straight talk" words)
It may seem frustrating to get a phone that is customized, and right now you just want a phone; However, you actually have one of the nicest and newest roms available for this type of phone!
IF your phone boots CM10.1 and you have the normal android screens, then you have everything that the ST or AT&T company would provide on a "normal" phone, but without some of the junk and advertising that often infects our phones! Try it out! The interface is not that much different from "stock."
Still, if you don't like your phone that way, YOU can fix it and it is not really hard, but just takes some reading and patience to gain understanding of the techniques and processes (learning the principles also is interesting! :laugh
But it will take you at least a few hours of reading, and a bit patience to scan through the Straight Talk links and pages. If you do that you'll see others who have your issue, and also others who turned the issue around to make it a plus!
A modified phone is more of a commitment than a stock phone -but it returns more to the user! Especially if you want to adjust it, enhance it, or appreciate it, you have to put in time.
If that's not for you -perhaps turn it around on ebay. But a working CM10.1 on a Galaxy S2 is a good machine!
Good Luck
Good Luck

Im new to rooting and a little nervous, hopefully im in the right place. I have a verizon samsung fascinate and my build number is DI01 i would like to get up to at least ED01 (not sure if it goes higher). The phone is not activated because i live in canada, so downloading the software update from verizon is not an option. That's why im coming here for help. im very confused, there seems to be 100's of different programs getting linked. I just need someone who knows what they are doing to tell me " do this and download that".
Thank's in advance for any help you can give.
**Note** i wont be getting a SD card till thursday so i wont be able to do anything untill then.
No need for multi posting same basic question, the fascinate forum especially has small but very knowledgeable group

I've bricked my Samsung Galaxy Player 3.6 (YP-GS1), and was hoping to at least restore it to working order, but I can't find a copy of the I9000XXJVS.RAR file anywhere on the XDA forums or the internet. I'm hoping that I can use Odin and all of the files from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1259240 to unbrick it and get it back to working condition.

Those files are for the Galaxy S I9000. Unless you want to hard brick your phone, I'd suggest you to not flash them.
If you need only the /system files and not other partitions you can look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1864741 If you need other partitions a well there's a thread here, but unfortunately the links are down. So you need to ask someone with a 3.6 (US/INTL depending on your version) to pull it out of their device
So, "It's dead, Jim".
Given up, wrote it off, and now I'm shopping for something a little more recent by asking for an assist on reddit's Android forums. Yeah, it was probably all my fault, but even the "guaranteed" Froyo fix didn't work, so I'm moving on after wasting two weekends fiddling around with this thing. It's off to the landfill for this Samsung, and I'll be giving something else a shot!
Thanks for the xda link, but I'd been there and done that -- which is how I got into trouble in the first place.
