[SOLVED] I sorta messed up AT&T Note... help? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

I have an AT&T Branded i717 Note. And I screwed up.
I checked out the Super Everything thread (which is great!) but stupidly downloaded the Rogers stock ODIN (which seems to be a full flash - PIT, Bootloader, PDA, PHONE, and CSC).
Thank you djkid for providing it in this thread: forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1657262
But anyway... I'm stupid because I flashed it (I know, I know, I was too eager and in a rush to flash something). Phone boots ok and everything, but it complains about the USB Storage being blank (or in an unsupported format), even though nothing is connected to it. If I put a MicroSD card in, it constantly shows "safe to remove SDCard".
I assume the partitions have been set incorrectly? I've been looking all over for an AT&T stock ODIN (that is full like the Rogers one mentioned above) but no luck. I downloaded and tried a few of the regular AT&T stock ODINs in the forum (thank you for those posts), but they only contain certain parts and they don't solve the USB / MicroSD issue I'm having.
Can anyone help?

Just go back and get rhe correct Odin3 files, put phone in download mode, start Odin, connect phone, and flash. I put the Rogers rom and modem on my phone last week (very laggy).

I have flashed stock AT&T roms via Odin, but the USB Storage / MicroSD issue remains.
Is it because the stock AT&T roms I am trying only come with certain parts?
i.e. the Rogers one I flashed (found in the forum) had a few files... the PIT file, CDC file, along with the system/modem etc. None of these AT&T stock roms I have downloaded have these kinds of parts (though that isn't stopping me from trying them out of desperation)

I'm quite certain that the ATT stock odin .tar file is complete...I've used it numerous times.
It has to be another issue...IMHO
And you are pulling the stock odin .tar from the everything thread ??
this is the one I'm talking about...and have used many times....g

With all this said, do we need to add something to the Super Page? I have the off ICS odin, totally bloated by ATT , (only 1gb in size) which is on my server profile, just never push it out or added it to the Super Page. Do or should we list it...on the Super Page ?

Yes - the big RAR.
I will try it again then. I will do whatever it takes to get this thing back to normal. When flashing this one, should I check "re-partition"? or just leave all check boxes as they come....
Thanks everyone for jumping in

Instead of having to go back all the way to gingerbread, use this odin file and flash official stock ICS which it has recovery, modem, kernel and ROM.

Simply run it ....don't re-partition ....let Odin do that ..
And GB or ICS is your choice ...but the original device partitions are GB ...not that it matters entirely, but if you want box stock ...it's the GB ...g

Alright. Loaded up Odin 1.85 (from the Super Everything thread), and grabbed the ICS stock recommended above (filename:
I717UCLF6_I717ATTLF6_I717UCLF6_HOME.tar.md5)
Flashing looked like it was going well!
Until it died at amss. Here is the log:

Since the majority of the flash finished, I thought I'd reboot the phone. Booted up OK (into what looks like the initial AT&T setups), but the USB issue remains. In the pic below, there is no USB anything attached to the phone, and there is a 1gig MicroSD card in the slot. (It offers to format the USB storage, which does nothing, and the internal sd storage doesn't seem to be recognized, and the external sd storage always says it is safe to remove it)

Try and flash back to the stock ROM, I'm telling you go to rootgalaxynote.com use their step by step picture process.
If you want I have the stock PDA I'll send you it

I would appreciate that if you can. All I'm seeing on rootgalaxynote is ICS roms, ICS leaked roms and ones that look like custom roms.
The ROM I just flashed ( I717UCLF6_I717ATTLF6_I717UCLF6_HOME.tar.md5 ) -- is it not stock? Or is it that since it's ICS, it's too new for me to flash to get back to basics....
Thanks lady

Alright. Downloaded and flashed attstockrom.tar (stock gingerbread AT&T) via Odin, but it didn't seem to help. It still has the USB Storage icon in the notification bar, saying it has an unsupported file system. Attempt to format it results in nothing... notification stays.
For this flash, I removed the MicroSD card. Flash was successful, and booted into the system. Below is a screenshot of the Storage area of Settings.
I'm thinking that the Rogers flash I originally did (to start this whole mess) maybe set the partitions wrong (or just different from this AT&T model phone)... is this possible? I don't know much about Samsung flashes (yet!). Also - I notice that the Odin 1.85 I grabbed (from the Super Everything thread) came with a PIT file (named u1_02_20110310_emmc_EXT4.pit) - but I don't want to flash it without knowing what it is exactly for. Any ideas on this? High brick risk?

Brick risk? Hell no. The pit file tells Odin how to partition the phone. Use it and see if your results are at all different.

Crap. Loading the PIT file (u1_02_20110310_emmc_EXT4.pit) along with the stock AT&T GB wouldn't get the flashing started. It failed at the PIT check part (and I notice on the phones screen it says "SECURE CHECK FAIL : PIT"
I also tried using the above PIT with the stock AT&T ICS (to see if it would be different.. same result).

Thanks for sticking with me
I just want this USB Storage / MicroSD problem to be fixed. This is an AT&T i717. It all started when I flashed a stock Rogers ROM. The stock Rogers rom had a file for each field in ODIN (PIT, BOOTLOADER, PDA, PHONE, and CSC). I think that it re-partitioned the phone (in some foreign way that the AT&T phone no longer sees the MicroSD. It also no longer sees the internal storage. Also, the notification bar complains that USB Storage is on, and whatever is attached to the phone is in an unsupported format.). There is no USB anything attached to the phone. It is confused (and so am I).
Re-flashing the AT&T stock roms (that you guys kindly pointed me to) flash OK, but they don't solve the issue. My guess is this - do I need an AT&T specific PIT file to repartition this thing back to normal?
