I was going to put my Note back to factory, so I was about to flash a stock rom. But my dumb a$$ didn't pay attention and I opened the Skyrocket folder, and flash the stock Odin, but for the skyrocket on my Note. Now I tried to put back the Note one, but my device doesnt boot up, it stays at the ATT white "rethink possible" screen. and is looping there. Do you guys think there is no solution?
I dont see why it wont boot up if youre able to use odin to flash the note stock tar.

Can you get to download mode? If so check repartition in Odin before flashing it back to stock.

How do I check that? I work with Odin all the time, but never had to do anything than flashing roms the regular way. Can you give me more specifics? I'll appreciate it.

already tried that
Try http://www.megaupload.com/?d=HKRP4FCH i personally use this flash when customer brings the brick phone or pattern lock to bring it back to stock
if that doesn't work I would give one click unbrick and Heimdall a shot. Can you get the phone into download mode? If not might have to buy a JIG or send it off.

when you say JIG i suppose you mean JTAG.. he can already get into dl mode
Odin to JFD again - just make sure its JFD and click repartition.

Ok this is what I done
GT-I9300 UK 2 weeks old. I install I9300XXDLI 7_I9300OXADLI7_I9300XXDLI7_BTU with Odin all went fine and been using it for about a week but too many bugs on this OTA. So I wanted to downgrade back to I9300BVBLG 2_I9300ORABLG1_ORA everything went fine and I got a green PASS in Odin but when restated the phone would go no further then Samsung welcome screen and then just flashed with the blue led flashing very slow, I left it for 10mins but nothing, just the same. I closed Odin and then tried to reboot the phone..again nothing!! A friend told me to try again but this time with re-partition ticked and use this PIT GT-I9300_mx_20120220.pit with I did..hmm I wish I never!! That is when it all went Pete Tong
The phone started to re-partition got a big blue line and STOPPED!! I left it like that for 10mins before closing Odin. Now when I try to flash the phone Odin start but nothing happens!! I have a screenshot of Odin hanging but can not post it here yet
Can someone pls help me :crying:

First power down your device, Go to stock recovery(Home+power button+volume up), Select factory data reset there, Then go into download mode and flash the stock ics firmware..
Do not select re partition.

Then your best bet is to connect to samsung kies, If it detects your phone it'll go to recovery mode and will try to restore it, Try connecting it to kies.

No every time I try and flash the phone Odin just hangs at this point "NAND Write Start" and nothing happens after this and my SG3 just as a blue line across the screen, plus Odin takes ages to start the upgrade
you probably used the wrong pit file, there are ones for the 16, 32,64Gb models
Find correct pit
Flash it on its own with repartition ticked, no auto reboot
Flash stock 3 part firmware
Hopefully this will sort it

First I read all the stickies and tried every installation to go back to stock but Odin just freezes up. Also tried different USB ports and and computers and same results. I can only go into download mode.
You may need to repartition. Not knowing the history of how your phone got to where it is now, I can't be sure. Can you give me a complete rundown of your issue?

How would I go about repartitioning the phone? I full wipe and flashed the new Shostock3 and it was doing fine. The next day when I woke up my phone had the sleep of death. The Galaxy S2 logo was stuck and I tried to get into recovery and it only showed half of the screen and was frozen. Now the screen says Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again.
Go to the Download Repository. The link is in my sig.
First, try flashing full stock Gingerbread. Use the download under the heading I777UCKH7-CL503881 Stock Binaries. This is the full distribution which contains the bootloaders. It doesn't matter whether you use the one-click downloader, or the tar.md5 file with Odin stand alone. If this flash completes, then you're recovered. Follow the guides to root and install a custom Gingerbread kernel, then flash back to SHOstock3 or whatever firmware you want.
If this flash does not complete, then download the I777 UCKH7 PIT and use that in Odin stand alone with the above tar.md5 file. Insert the tar in the PDA slot, the pit in the PIT slot, and check repartition, then flash.

If you didn't try it already, now go back and flash just the tar.md5 file without the pit, again, and see if it will complete.

Yes, I was hoping that the problem is not hardware, but it was a thought from the beginning, given the sequence of failure. Is the phone by chance still under warranty?
Let's don't give up yet, though.
Things to try, then try to flash the full firmware in between.
1. Use Odin stand alone to flash just the I777 secondary bootloader.
2. Use Odin stand alone to flash just the param.lfs.
Try the instructions in this post.

You can already get into download mode. I don't believe there is any difference in the download mode produced by a jig. A jig is really helpful if the wrong secondary bootloader was flashed by accident (or ignorance), and you can't get the phone into download mode any ohter way.

SOLVED Flashing stock with odin http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2289325
After a couple hours of searching I haven't had any luck fixing what i've mistakenly done to my phone.
I made a new account and am first posting because I am at witts end.
The status of my phone is-
it will not boot.
It hangs at the Samsung Custom screen.
I can only get into download mode.
When I try to boot into recovery the blue text top left says it's booting but it doesn't boot into recovery.
I suspect I corrupted my recovery somehow.
I've tried flashing different kernels with odin and the few that ive tried successfully flash but same thing still happens.
I think I need a CWM recovery or TWRP recovery that I can flash with odin? Is that a thing?
Any point in the right direction would greatly be appreciated.

You can try that I don't know if it'll work in download/odin.
I suggest just flashing the stock update via odin and re root..

Those files do not work with ODIN.
I dont have a stock update file to flash with odin nor have I been able to find any for download.
The mdk stock firmware file is located in the dev section, flashable via odin.

This is the MDK image that will take you back to bone stock, out-of-the-box. Just open ODIN, put the phone in download mode, put this file in PDA only section, and you're golden.

It's nice to have my phone back , I was getting really worried there for a bit..
I had TWRP and CleanRom Running just fine but after a few mods and a reboot it hung on me.
I wonder if anyone is aware of these issues or if I'm just 'special' Hmmm
I really wanted to have a LIGHT TouchWiz rom that I can add mods to myself.
Any suggestions?
I was trying to flash back my I605 Note 2. I'm coming from CM11. Downloaded original 4.1.2 firmware and ran through Odin. Everything passed and worked through Odin, but when the phone restarted it was flashing the Galaxy Note 2 screen....... Any ideas? About to sell the phone. Really need some help. Any comments would be appreciated. Thank you.

I think I've had this problem before. I flashed the root66 4.1.2 file and it got stuck. From there I put it in download mode and flashed TWRP through Odin. Then I went into recovery and flashed a ROM and from there I got it to boot. Since you're selling it, I would say flash creanrom and then flash sophisticated 4.3 to give them a stock experience.

Haven't seen that one. I did some research and the things I found are pretty bad. I read theres a problem where your phone storages are set to R/O rather than R/W and its not allowing it to write anything. The last thing I found to fix it was a fix for the VZN GS3, but I'm gonna guess the same will for the the Note 2. I would suggest using the unrooted stock firmware since root is unimportant right now. You can get that somewhere in another thread because I don't have the link handy. Get that, and get the pit file and load that into Odin with your phone in download mode. Go ahead and make sure repartition is checked as well and give that a try. Using the pit file should reset the data tables (or something like that) to the proper R/W permissions. Hope everything works out for you!
EDIT- Here's the thread you can use to get the firmware and pit file. All the files you should need are in section 1b. I know I said not to use the root66 file, go ahead and try it first because the firmware files are huge. If root66 doesn't work, go for the one that says it'll return it to "out of the box conditions." From here, hopefully it'll boot. If you run into the endless boot issue from here, go back to the first post I posted and do that.
