to get to download mode for odin...hold vol down and power button til you see the download screen then it will ask you to vol up...
when you return to stock you lost cwm....do you have to put into download mode....to flash with odin...I used the touch cwm...after this then you will have cwm again...all else that you require, see spinning "my signature links" to GNote page....

you don't need to remove CWM
You only need stock rom and stock modem. If you have that go to the Samsung site and get your upgrade.
Ok, this is what I'm trying to do. I'm going to exchange the Note for the Galaxy S3 before my 30 days are up. I need a complete stock phone. How can I get a complete stock phone?. Now I'm partially rooted.

Hello i have an sgs2 from At&t and i was trying to root but was unsuccesful and now i have this message on my screen when i turn it on " Frimware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again". I could use any advice or help. I have search and tried alot of things but no luck. Please thanks.
What method did u use to root?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using XDA App
And importantly did you attempt the recovery through kies?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using XDA App
i used the "how to easily root your sgs2" method using odin. I tried to use the recovery through kies but it asks for a code and it wont connect to my phone.
It sounds like your phone is still half functioning. Try booting into recovery,
With the phone off hold down both volume keys and power button until you see the first screen, then let go of the power button.
If it's stock recovery you'll be able to do a factory restore(wipe). If CWM choose wipe data factory reset.
After rebooting it might work.
Worst case you can put it back in download mode and try odin again.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using XDA App
If you can't get it into download mode you may have serious issues.
Might need to build a usb jig or buy one.
Contemplate a return.
If you tried everything, and I mean everything to get it into download mode, i.e. jig, "adb reboot", then neither can they. Can't see anything you did.

You never did tell us what KIES has to do with ROOTING ?
I would definitely flash back to stock. Stock will never further mess it up. Not to mention there is the stock rom that's prerooted. By using that one you won't get a yellow triangle on boot. Nor will the counter go up from changing the kernel.

If he downloaded an international rom then he can't use the stock recovery as the power button on the international roms aren't the select key. They have an actual hardware button to select. I found that out the hard way.

That is probably true cuz i downloaded a 1900 or something odin file to get back to stock but it was not the right one as i now know it should have been I777.

At least you got download mode working. With that working there should be no issue about fixing your phone.
Just keep in mind depending on if "everything flashed from the international version you possibly will also need to flash the right modem.
I wouldn't worry about that until you got the phone up and working.
It's best to keep each step as simple as possible, especially for the first time you're trying it.

ok so i downloaded the stock rooted rom and im using odin 1.85 but it stops at factoryfs.img, any ideas??? thanks again for all the help
Not good. I wish I could offer more help. At least it didn't stop at flashing the bootloaders.
There's not too much you can do at this point. You can try waiting seeing if it changes.
You can hope if you do unplug it that you can get it back into download mode. Then try odin again. Though I'd make sure the checksum of the download matches up to make sure it downloaded properly.
No one wants to be the one to say unplug it in the middle of an odin procedure, but if no progress is being made after a reasonable amount of time, there's not much left to do.

Like the title said, and now even thoug it goes into download mode, it doesn't go past the att logo when tried to flash the att stock .tar' or if I try and flash any other rom (rooted), it doesnt go past "android" animation. It goes black and that's it. I'm afraid I damaged something really bad, and won't be able to fix it. Any thoughts?
If you can go into download mode, just flash stock Note rom through Odin. I figure that's how you flashed skyrocket.tar.

Like I said, already tried that, my flash counter keeps increasing (30+), but same results. Maybe messed up the bootloader, or something?

Can you get into CWM mode?
If you can boot to Samsung logo the bootloader should be fine. I would re download the stock note tar and then Odin. I had a bad tar and had the same issue but I didn't flash a tart from another device. Flash cwm in Odin to see if you can boot into cwm first.

Then flash a firmware with Odin you know how to root. Or better yet flash entropy512's stock plus root package.
By the way you should be able to get into recovery by holding down volume up + volume down + power button - do not let go off any buttons until you see the recovery menu - the bout splash screen will flash at least twice before recovery comes up.

1. Root your phone with cf-root
2. Use triangle away, when you press volume up press down+home+power immediately so you go into download mode
3. Once in download mode, load your stock rom with odin
4. after done flashing go to recovery volume up+home+power and do a factory reset / wipe cache
5. Boot to your rom, set your csc with csc selector from the market to the correct one for your rom so you receive future updates (unless you dont want to)

For your case, if you want your phone back to normal, you must take the risk. Ignore the file or your phone will stuck like that forever.
Anyway, if another member have better solution. Kindly assist.(coz, I still new on this forum).

I just rooted a Verizon GS4 (VRUAME7) using this method. Everything went fine. I verified root with Root Checker, rebooted the phone, checked again.
Then I followed this method to install TWRP. When I rebooted the device as instructed, it got stuck on a splashscreen that has and Android logo and says "Downloading...Do not turn off target!!" :'(
The upper left in red says "Could not do normal boot. ODIN MODE"
I tried a battery pull, vol dwn + power, vol up + power and vol down + up + power.
How do I get back to normal boot or into TWRP recovery? I have a ROM I'd like to install, and as of now...it won't get past that splash screen.
What do I do?
Thanks!
First off youre in the wrong section. Questions go in the Q and A section. Second your on the me7 ota and you cant install a custom recovery/roms on the me7 ota. To get your phone booting again you will have to flash the stock recovery (not sure if someone has posted a stock recovery flashable via odin as I havent looked)or flash me7 again.

This worked perfectly.
Hopefully it'll won't fall back into that. Can't wait until I can ROM this sucker. Laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaag.
Since you have the update, boot the phone up in Odin mode and plug in your USB cable.
If you installed the desktop software you will have a Verizon folder in your start menu.
In that folder there should be an app "Verizon Software Upgrade Utility"
Run that and it should tell you you are up to date.
There is a repair utility within that app, run that and it should fix your problem.
It takes a while because it downloads the rom and then flashes it.
No guarantees, but I believe that will get you back to stock unrooted.
Sent from a Galaxy S4... Far far away
Sounds like he just got into download mode and didn't recognize it, and his rom, recovery, and everything was untouched.
To the OP, you're probably good if your phone has booted normally, works fine, and you're still rooted. You can't flash any roms or mods, but you can still apply some mods by simply pushing them to your /system partition, setting permissions, and rebooting. Either follow the instructions for which directory to put the file/files in, or you can open up a flashable zip and use the same path as the directories in the zip.
You should even be able to push a modded framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk and rename the old ones, once people start building ME7 roms, though I can't guarantee it'll work. All you can do is try, and now you know how to get into Download mode to use Odin if it doesn't work.
As far as plain lag goes, just freeze alot of the bloat, there's around 50 apks (in MDK, anyway) that aren't doing anyone any good. Then grab a cpu app like Trickster Mod and see what, if any, parameters the stock kernel enables you to change. If you can set the Interactive cpu governor, Deadline scheduler, Performance gpu governor, and increase the read-ahead size, you should see a significant improvement.
