I tried installing chainfire3d on my note and it refused to fully reboot after that. I have tried using ODIN to return to stock and every time I run it, the process completes, the phone reboots and ad gets stuck at the AT&T screen again. Any ideas?
Nevermind, I got it.

I recently purchased a used Vibrant and after factory resetting, the phone constantly bootloops with an audible "Restoring Operation". I've had the Vibrant before, and I know that it is trying to restore itself from the Whiskey Kernel the guy had installed before, but it simply reboots from scratch every time. How can I force it to go to download mode so I can odin back to stock? I've tried the Three Button method, but as soon as I reboot it says "Restoring operation" and reboots and cycles again. Can I try any other methods? I'm not afraid to open up the phone.
[Q] "Andoid is upgrading" Screen was looping and now is virtually unresponsive
I attempted to put Cyanogenmod 10 on my SGH-I747 but as soon as it tried to load the Cyanogenmod 10 loading logo kept looping. With the rest of the phone unusable at this point I wiped the cache then the whole phone. I used Odin 3.07 to flash the stock firmware back and it passes each time. My problem is at the "android is upgrading" screen with the loading wheel after it loads all of my 90 apps. After the first time I popped the battery out after 20 minutes and tried flashing a different file, thinking that was the problem.
I was been stuck here for 30 min+ and I was starting to get worried but then I tried to install it a third time and now the phone will only take me to the Clockworkmod screen or the download screen and can still be recognized by my PC by sound when I plug it it, but I can't find it. It will not turn on though and when I try it flashes the Galaxy S and Samsung symbol then goes black. I've searched all over for a solution but can't find one. Please someone help me fix this, I know someone's been through this before. What should I do? Is my phone unrepairable?
I rooted my GS4 and tried to install PureG but ended up in a boot loop at the Samsung Galaxy S4 screen. I fixed it by flashing the stock image through ODIN following. I then went to root it again using the guide by open1your1eyes0. I am now stuck in a boot loop yet again, however this time it says "Samsung" then underneath that is an open padlock, and under that it says "custom". I have tried everything I could think of with no luck. I have tried looking around for people with similar problems but again no luck.
Can you boot into recovery?
Flash-oholic on my SCH-I545
I got it. It was just being glacially slow booting up. I thought it was stuck so I kept resetting it. It was a dumb mistake. Thanks for the reply though.
No problem, if it hangs up in the future you may have to fix the permissions from recovery mode. FLASH ON!

My phone is a verzon note 2 on deodox 4.3 with twrp recovery. The phone only boots to teamwin logo and flickers on and off. my computer will not recognize my phone either at this point.This is what happened. Ive been having some 4g lte loss and unstable wifi issues to i decided to do a factoty reset. when i rebooted into recovery i was stuck at the twrp logo and it would constantly bootloop the twrp logo.. I restarted my phone and did a factory reset from under the general setting. At that point it rebooted int the twrp but continued to just stay at the logo and would not go into recovery. I pulled the battery and restarted the phone but from that point on it would only boot into the twrp logo and stay there. I can get into download mode but my pc (win7) no longer recognizes the phone so i cant attempt to fix this in odin. Im not sure what to do to get this phone to work properly at this point.

My guess is that when you rooted with CASUAL, it changed the Samsung device driver on your computer and you need to reinstall the Samsung driver to get the computer to recognize the phone again in download mode.
Underneath step 7 of section 1b on Droidstyle's restore guide, he discusses issue with CASUAL replacing the Samsung driver... and he gives a link to Jeremy Loper's fix... "If odin no longer recognizes your device, most likely Casual killed the driver for odin!! follow this tutorial for restoring the driver: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zzghcV8HVVk"
Once the computer recognizes the phone again, you should be able to use ODIN to restore back to 4.1.2 so you can root/unlock again with CASUAL. After you get the phone restored with Odin, I would recommend booting into Stock Recovery and wiping cache/doing factory reset before running Casual again... this would enure you are starting over with a totally clean slate.
If the above doesn't work, then here's a thread where I tried to help someone else who couldn't get their computer to recognize the phone.... maybe some of those ideas will help - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=55833998
Good luck!!
1 step forward two steps back. I got my pc /odin to recognizes my note 2(changed usb cords). Then tried to odin back to stock 4.1.2. At first odin kept saying (odin not responding) and would ask to close the program,after several attemps i final got it to flash the 4.1.2 file. When i flashed the file and was at the point where it reboots, it would not get past the samsung note 2 logo and continued to flicker and not boot up even when i tried to put it into download mode like it said to in this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2024207. When i tried to reflash the file it failed. when i attempted again it just hangs at setupconnection. Tried again and it failed. Btw thanks for the help mattnmag.
Got it working! i simply forgot to place the sch-i605 pit. into the pit section of odin when i flashed the 4.1.2 rom.

I was running AllianceROM 26. My phone had been spontaneously rebooting for a bit recently. Today, it started to spontaneously reboot again, but this time, it never got past the Galaxy Note 2 screen. After pulling the battery, I tried to boot into TWRP. It just hangs on the twrp boot screen for a few minutes but never goes into twrp.
I figured I would try taking it back to stock. So, I used ODIN to try and put 4.1.2 on it and a new PIT file. That appeared to work fine. I got no errors in ODIN. However, I still cannot get this thing to get past these boot screens, either the Galaxy Note 2 one or TWRP when I try that there. I have tried this twice now, once with re-partition checked and another time with re-partition unchecked (saw conflicting instructions on that so I figured I would try it both ways). I still am not getting past the boot screen.
Any help or ideas are appreciated as right now, my phone appears to be bricked and I am out of ideas.
so what was the solution to the teamwin flashing on and off after a factory reset? this is certainly not a solution, having to reflash the phone...
A few months ago, I tried rooting my phone and posted about it:
"I am completely new to rooting and I followed Wolfdroid's tutorial to root my phone.
I got to the point where i had CWM, but when I was trying to install from my SD card there was no option.
I'm stuck with the Samsung "unlock" Custom load up screen and every time i try to go into recovery, it immediately goes to download odin mode, but it still says im not rooted. I know it's possible to boot normally by going to download and pressing Volume down, but if it's possible I would like to get my phone back to an completely unrooted state.
I've tried unrooting with SuperSU but that just ends up freezing.
Samsung Galaxy S4(Verizon) SCH-I545 NK1"
After a while I gave up on bringing my phone back to a completely unrooted state, but now my phone was stuck in a reboot loop, where i would be able to use it for a few seconds then it would reboot. I am completely unable to get into recovery mode, and when I do try, it goes into the downloading screen. So I tried flashing a stock rom onto my phone, but that failed, so now it can either go into downloading screen or go to a screen were it says "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again." I have no clue what to do at this point.
have you tried surge's emegerncy stock? here. It's an NC5 stock rom, but since bootloader didnt get locked up for kitkat until OC1 it might work.
