You have to wipe data/factory reset when you sbf to stock or you'll boot loop. Go to recovery like you would with cwm, and when you get the Android with the triangle, press Vol up and down at the same time to get to stock recovery. Factory reset from there and reboot.

Hi Guys
I flashed the leaked ICS but hate it. Can I flash to stock GB via Odin? What about the baseband versions etc.., would it matter?
Sorry, I read another thread but it's unclear and I want to avoid bricking. Thanks
As far as what I've read you can flash stock from Odin or even use CWM to a previous nandroid of gingerbread.

If you got your Note from AT&T, simply flash this stock ODIN:

I went from ICS back to Gb cause I missed the tethering and it was easy. Just make sure you clear the caches and all should be well.
Thanks.. I was worried of the different baseband would have any adverse effect, but it doesn't sound like it will. I'll give it a try.
I Odin'd back to stock and I'm in a world of ****. My phone cant do anything, it just gets stuck on every swipe and reboots about every 5 minutes. Does anyone have any ideas?
Mines fine..only baseband is different, phone works.
Before I Odin to stock, I booted into recovery, factory reset and wiped cache. Odin, then booted into recovery and performed another factory reset and wiped cache again.

You get it figured out? I did the same thing. . My old apps still there. I can tell it is gingerbread, but nothing works now. I hope you got your figured out!!
When I boot into recovery I get the screen that tells me to use the up and down keys and when I choose factory wipe, and press power button, nothing happebs. If I hold it down eventually the phone shuts off. When i restart it, nothing changed.

I had to revert from ICS to GB yesterday and, even tho I am on Telus, I had success by flashing the pda-odin-att-stock.rar image
I can't post links .. I'm too new. But literally.. google what's bolded above and you will find the hotfile link.
It replaced everything (including the recovery) ... FULL system image. Solved everything and brought me back to 100% stock.
So yes, I lost my root and my CWM recovery software.. but it got my phone working again.. I can reflash CWM and re-root as I need.
After the install, wipe cache, factory reset etc.
I too flashed the stock ATT rom but like the previous poster, it gave me a phone which started up but wouldn't work. When I tried to get into recovery mode, it went to a screen with the recovery mode stuff at the top, but with a yellow warning sign in the middle and some words about manual mode, and it would not let me do a wipe or reset.
Here is what I just did that did work.
I flashed the recovery-i717-cwm-b4.tar file with odin. This worked and allowed me to get into the "proper" recovery mode to do a wipe and factory reset, as well as a cache wipe. I then reflashed tieh the stock ATT rom, and my phone now is back to stock.
Im running 2.3.5 on a rogers phone in canada and my phone says there is an update. When I click on download and install, it does its thing and when it boots back up it says updated failed. Not sure what im doing wrong. I searched everywhere and could not find anything that will help
You have probably changed your system somehow. You can try flashing a nandroid backup to restore all missing bloats. You can also flash brasilizian 2.3.6 gb, wich is pretty much the same as rogers one.

Try disabling any anti virus you may have installed. Also, do a factory reset/ wipe user data and cache before flashing the brazilian 2.3.6
Think my phone is messed up. everything time I reboot, It goes to flashmode. I have to hold power and both volume buttons and when it goes blank I let go of the power it goes to fastboot and I have the option to power up in normal.
Try an wipe Data in Moto Recovery. For me it was the solution when I had this problem first time...
flash this empty_radio.zip
Thanks, I got my phone back up
Need some help, this is my daughter's phone and she was having problems on CM7 so I restored a nandroid for her back to the stock rom. She tried to do a factory reset (didnt know she wasnt supposed to, I totally forgot) and now nothing works. Ive tried restoring it again, flashing a different rom, but get the same result after reboot every time - back to recovery. Is there anything I can do to get this thing out of recovery and actually reboot to a rom?

- NEVER use Android Settings 'Factory Reset' from now on, only do factory reset & wipes from within recovery mode. Most ROMs should have this option removed from the Android settings.

Firstly thanks...i didn't know that we are not supposed to factory reset after a nand restore
Secondly, try flashing the original firmware using LGMDP
Tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1324105
If the link of v20c doesn't work, then try v10e i got my phone's life back when it almost got bricked once using this method.

Cant even get windows to recognize the phone while its in recovery, even after installing the optimus v drivers
EDIT: Got it fixed, I found a different recovery, flashed it, and all is good now. The problem must have been CWM.
good info to know
That sucks!
I recently flashed cm10.3 nightly on my vzw note 2. I did a full wipe and upon the first startup, my phone has been stuck in roaming mode. My phone shows the correct IMEI and my correct phone number, but is showing unknown network. I have tried a factory reset, restoring an older nandroid and finally relocking and going back to stock via ODIN. Any ideas what has happened and what I can do to get back on the verizon network?

did you ever get an answer to this? Same thing happened to me.
You have to Odin back to stock. Then once you are back on stock, go into settings and factory reset the data/device. Let it reset and reboot on its own and you should be set
All you need to do is load a touchwiz rom and do a factory reset from settings

Worked like a charm!
did this and I'm still stuck on roaming....
Hey XDA
This all started when I didn't put my phone on charge one night, and the morning after I got a text then I went to read it, my screen flickered and my phone crashed, this was usual when my phone dies.
However this time, when I put my phone on charge, it wouldn't boot up, it would stay at the boot animation screen.
I was running AOKP 4.2.2.
I then thought it was just a corrupt ROM so I went to re-install the ROM.
First, when I went to wipe the dalvik cache it said it had failed, this immediately showed warning signs, then when I went to install the ROM from my SD card it said that had failed also.
This left me only 1 option, to restore back to the stock ROM through Odin.
This seemed to go fine until I got to the end went instead of booting into an "android is updating" type thing, it was stuck on a boot loop.
This now leaves me stumped for ideas, so I turn to you, how do I fix my phone?
I hope I can fix this phone as it is my only phone.
Thanks, Jem

after you install the stock rom via Odin boot into the stock recovery and do a factory reset and wipe the cache. should boot up after that.
one thing i notice after installing 5 different OTA though odin last night they dont wipe user data you have to do it your self. so i would give that i try im sure that should fix your problem
