[Q] Odin - Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II

Can Odin be used more than once? I am getting a message with yellow triangle and can only boot phone into Odin. I cannot seem to find a working valid MD5 file either to restore stock.the one posted here seems invalid when checked by Odin.I was going to reflash beans106 build 1 since that seems to be my only option.i wonder how verizon would like me showing up with a phone to reflash.
Anyone I am stuck
Thanks

You should be able to use Odin multiple times! over and over. If you go to Verizon they will laugh at you

Thanks I keep reading threads that say only use stock roms for Odin after you loaded a custom rom.
I am screwed at this point now anyway not being able to even load current beanstown verson 1 in phone anyway.
Guess a totally bricked phone is all that is left to do then they can have a real good laugh.

Your phone is soft-bricked??

you have a serious problem on your end...either your computers have viruses or your not telling the whole story. the files work fine i have used them all. i would try installing a fresh copy of windows on your pc.
alternative option: send me your device and 20.00 and i will unlock it and put whatever rom you want on it, then send it back.

I need my phone for a sick family member so a trip to Verizon maybe my only option
The files you speak of do not work now for me or they may not need to be unzipped and not specified in directions
The only file Odin sees and does a checksum is is the one that loaded yesterday. The one you said I could not have loaded.
Does Imnuts files for stock recovery need to be unzipped?

Use SirVilhelm's post for the Odin flashable and make sure you are using the Odin exe from Adam's bootloader unlock thread. Or flash Revision 3 instead of the full stock image. I borked my phone slightly and this worked.
Uncheck auto reboot, and after it finishes unplug and pull battery and wait for 10 seconds so it doesnt keep going back to odin.
Report back if it works at all
EDIT: Imnuts file does not need to be unzipped. Use as is.

your getting corrupt downloads because of something on your end...That's the part your failing to understand... you keep saying "oh well that don't work for me"....ok but there must be a reason. All those files and methods that have been provided work for everyone else including myself. Take a step back make sure your doing everything correctly and make sure your pc is clean and no viruses...again its something on your end.

I have been working with the above poster on this issue for a couple days. He has supposedly tried all these files you posted and they don't work for him. there is something going on from his side of the coin...

Very informative response.I thank you a bunch. I ended up using Imnuts stock rom and she booted up fine.I needed to know when those special rooted stock files were there ending in xz format.I could not get Odin to see them.I was not going ti buy this whole brick thing because I was at least able to get into Odin.
I have yet to get Casual to work though even though my machines see my phone in ADB
Happy holidays!

CWM-Recovery_all

Has anyone tried Odin flashing cwm-recovery-all.zip?
It was designed to work on many phones but also integrates voodoo for those kernels that can use it.
I don't see why it wouldn't work but I am no development and without a recovery image available from sanding I don't want to kill my player.

Could you give me a link of what you are talking about? never heard of it before, bit I would be willing to try it.
i just checked the sdcard on my mesmerize and i was incorrect, the name is cwm-recovery-all.zip - you can also google that and get tons of download links from places like mediafire.
it is CWM or Odin flashable.
http://www.droidforums.net/forum/sa...-clockworkmod-all-roms-updated-3-30-11-a.html
it was actually found here but here is a link for another place that has a link for both cwm flash and odin flash versions.
frankly i have not even seen anyone post how to get into recovery or how to get into download mode...
but of course adb should easily be able to do both.
Sorry, I'm still a bit of a noob to android, How would I flash this? You say you can flash it using cwm but isn't that what we are trying to get on? I have no idea how to use Odin and would appreciate help.
Edit; where do I even download Odin?
Could I just do this manually with root explorer? looking inside the zip it seems possible, but would I have to do anything with the "META_INF" or "kernal_update" folders, or are they only for flashing?

nope no manual install. its a flash.
and google is your friend dude.
just look for something like Odin 1.3 or higher.
but i use 1.3 because i have a Galaxy S 1 phone. (samsung mesmerize)
and i am gunna warn you, there is a good chance this will brick your Player.
and since Samsung doesnt offer a firmware download, you are screwed. i dont think even Kies would be able to fix it.
downlaod the cwm-recovery-all.zip (or you may download a tar file i forget
unzip it, and inside is cwm-recovery-all.tar inside of it is recovery.bin. (dont unpack the tar file.
odin is easy. just put your phone into download mode. (via adb - adb reboot download )
plug it into your pc.
open odin - it should say something is recognized or added (meaning your phone.)
click pda and choose the cw-recovery-all.tar
then click start.
once again you could easily kill your Player by doing this. - atleast until someone figures out how to
but if I do brick, can I use a backup rom to fix it, or will this screw recovery mode= no possible fix?
Edit; looking at that thread, it seems this is for 2.2, I have 2.3.5, I think that is a good reason for me not to try this, sorry! I'm chickening out.

yeah but it works fine on my mesmerize and it uses 2.3.4
best case is it says failed when Odin tries to flash it.
and where you going to get a backup rom ? does Kies do some sort of full back up ?

Well, odin recognizes it even with it not being in download mode, and I figured out how to compile my recovery rom, so it is currently flashing, will let you know what happens! Keep your fingers crossed!
EDIT: it gave me "FAIL" please help! I am using odin 1.3
It seems to fail at recovery.bin, maybe mine is corrupted.
If someone could post theirs for a 4.0 u.s. version, I would appreciate it!
Follow this to get it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1082288
for above problem.. i managed to flash back to my stock rom.
1. download your stock rom from samfirmware (2.2/TTT version in my case)
2. download odin3 1.85.
3. flash using pda button
worked for me.
ps. i had mine bricked due to checking partition box, using above method fixed it.
Last time I checked, samfirmware didn't have it for U.S.
Also were you able to get yours into download mode, if so how?
Also about my post above, I just mean the recovery.bin file, not whole rom.

I don't know exactly what you mean, but I backed up; system, kernal, and recovery. I put these int a .tar.md5 file with cygwin, and when flashing with odin it fails as it gets to "recovery.bin" wich leads me to believe that is the problem.

[Q] Verizon note II bricked & bootloader locked

So I rooted my phone with oden, the next day I see my phone is promting me to download an OTA update to "fix vulnerabilities" so i download it. ( I know, I know, I really wasn't using my head...) so the phone resets and I get a warning saying "this phone has unauthorized software installed, please bring to the nearest verizon store for assistance."
so I tried holding volume up, home and power to get to the bootloader.... and nothing...
what can i do? do I have to wait this out, or am I going to have to get a new phone?
Download mode is volume DOWN home and power
File section 1b and make sure tout get the alternate download from the download link

No, hold volume down, home and the power button to enter downloading mode for the purpose of flashing files using ODIN. You'll need the stock PIT file and updated bootloader baseline files to restore your phone, which you can fine here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2107738.
When you get it back download vodoo root keeper and backup your root with it. Then you should be able to install the ota and restore your root

So is your phone fixed? If not you don't need the pit and baseline, that's to unlock. You need to file the thread I linked you to. Droidstyle guide is very easy to follow. Just make sure when you download your file you get the "alternate restore"

Ok you'll need to download two separate files. This one is the stock Verizon rom: http://d-h.st/waO that imnuts posted. DL that and put it in the PDA section in Odin then hit start and let the rom flash. Once that's done download the PIT file here: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?05cj895zu3tls7z and put this file in the top section that says PIT and his start and allow Odin to run. After you flash both you should be back to stock with a working phone. Btw you get to download mode by holding vol down + home and power at the same time and once once you get to the screen warning you about a custom rom press vol up. If you need more help let me know.

Okay well using separately may work but you should do it at the same time. Also you're right the pit isn't for unlocking. I haven't used the new method all I just knew the baseline was used unlocking and linked the pit in.
Now that I've wasted time explaining that it still doesn't change the fact that flashing the dock image will fail at sboot. He still needs to follow the directions I told him in the very beginning.I'm also more done here because he won't listen or had and won't tell anyone and people keep telling him wrong and then giving attitude to me trying to help him. As a matter of fact this entire user base is full of a bunch of trolls and really getting irritating.

Taken straight from that thread just below the picture, please revisit that paragraph......
Here's the bottom line up-front
Samsung has inserted code to blacklist our baseline and mitigate our exploits in the bootloader patch they began pushing out last night. You will need to flash the updated bootloader baseline and stock pit in order to restore your device to operational status. The How-To Unlock your Bootloader thread is invalid at this time.
I'm having the same problem and can't get into download mode

Hi there,
Could someone please help me. I bricked my phone 3 days go and went through odin and root66 stock to unbrick it. I installed CWM and backed up everything, then i purchased triangle away to reset the flash counter. When I did that I got the software not authorized by verizon error screen. It won't let me get into download mode or recovery.What should I do? I'd really appreciate some help today is the 5th day I have been trying to fix my phone, only to make it worse. Does anyone know what would happen if I took a rooted phone to verizon, would they be able to help me?
Thank you in advance
Still will not reboot - to stock

so I tried holding volume up, home and power to get to the bootloader.... and nothing...
what can i do? do I have to wait this out, or am I going to have to get a new phone?

Download the file that is located on this link: /docs.google.com/uc?id=0B-4vmAHRoMi-TGlrellrTi1SWXM&export=download
Put your phone in download mode
Connect to Odin
Load the tar file under PDA
and let it do its magic. This will put you back to FULL stock unrooted but will not fix the knox 0x1. Hope it helps.

I tried to download that file but it failed..not sure why..i really want to get it back to stock any other ideas????

In the Troubleshooting forum, type in "brick" in the search field. It is hard for me to provide you the links as I am on a restricted account. Throughout those posts you will have to do a lot of digging because when I bricked my Note 3 it took me a few hours to finally find the full .tar for MJ4. Sorry I can't be more help, but if I come across anything else I will def. let you know. Keep me updated if you find the full .tar or not.
Just flash a stock rom instead of what you flashed.

Or that ^^ but try the kernel download from this link for the original tar file: ://samsung-updates.com/details/15741/Galaxy_Note_3_Sprint/SM-N900P/SPR/N900PVPUBMJ4.html
fix the link and add http at the beginning.
The problem is finding the stock rom or file for odin so I can get everything back to when I first got it...

Go to this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2522638 then download Odin 1.85 which is linked later in that thread. Then:
1. Turn off phone
2. Press power home and volume down. When prompted press volume up to get into download mode.
3. Start Odin put the tar in the PDA slot.
4. Plug phone in.
5. When Odin sees the phone press start.

You do know that jellybomb is now on the note 3 ands everything works and what Does not work we have a question and Answer thread just for jellybomb and I am running jellybomb rite now and everything works that you mention did not work. . Sure I had to pull apps from the stock rom and replaced a few apps.. But I got every app to work. . And I'm not even on the latest jellybomb I'm on version 2 beta 3.. So I think we everything was fixed in beta version 6.. it's a great rom with a great deal of support.. As I said jellybomb has its own thread for questions and help. .

Make sure you do a backup in twrp before you start flashing roms again. That way if it isn't what you wanted you can just do a nandroid restore and fix it in a few minutes. It's always a good idea to have a few fully functional backups on your phone in case you have any issues.

I need some major help PLEASE!!!!!

So call me a super noob but I cant for the life of me unroot my dang Note 2. Ive read forums and threads on how and I dont know what my deal is. I dont know how to get odin on my laptop. I search and search to download it but cant find a way to download it. Im on a different pc than the one I rooted it to begin with because the old pc is stupid slow. I dont have supersu on my phone right now cuz I was screwing around with my phone and a friend of mine said I could unroot the phone by going into the supersu app. So I dont have su binaries. I dont even know if im rooted anymore. Im on scotts ROM the 4.1.2 version. I do have CWM recovery still tho. All I want to know is a step by step process on how to get odin onto my pc, and go from there on. And yes I have read forums about how to unroot but none say anything about how to install odin. I feel really dumb but I really need my phone unrooted ASAP. I have a new phone and tranferred the SIM card over to it....do I need to have the SIM card in my Note 2 in order to unroot it??? Thanks in advance to anyone who can help a bro out

Download Odin (it's just a simple windows program). - http://forum.xda-developers.com/atta...3&d=1304094576
Make sure you have the latest samsung drivers - http://www.mediafire.com/?hzlnda0l5t8qyes
To use odin later all you do is power down the phone and boot back into download mode (volume down, power and home at the same time).
Open Odin, plug in phone...Odin should recognize the phone and you will see the com port noted in yellow.
From here you can follow these instructions to flash back to bone stock: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2024207

The download is compressed so you need to extract it (unzip). I am not familar with Zip opener but it probably works like the others (7-zip, etc). Just right click on the file and choose extract. Then you should see a normal application you can open.

I have never used 3.09, only 1.85 (the link I provided above). Looking at screenshots of 3.09, the fields look the same but are named differently, but since I have never personally used that version I can't guarantee it.

[Q] Bricked Note 2 i605

So I tried to root my Note 2 today. I had rooted it once before using Casual this past summer, but due to circumstances i had to get a new one.The replacement came in today, and i tried to root it with the same methods. I believe my mistake was using Casual while i had 4.3 installed on my device. I'm not TERRIBLY android savvy, but i knew enough to know that if i ****ed up i should stop while i'm ahead and ask you guys.
tl;dr
Long story short, while using Casual to root my Note 2 with 4.3 on it, i got this message
ERROR: Failed to confirm end of file transfer sequence!ERROR: recovery upload failed!ERROR: Failed to send end session packet!waiting for device
waited for a good 30 minutes, nothing was changing, turned off phone and now it's bricked, looping at the "Samsung Galaxy Note 2" Splash screen.
I believe i have to use Odin for something but i could really use some help and reassurance before i continue.
Needless to say i will be jamming f5 on my thread until everything is resolved!
Thanks in advance!

UPDATE: Since i posted this, i tried to flash a stock firmware on Odin (4.1.2 i believe) and it failed halfway through the procedure. with nothing more to be done, i reset my phone, and where before it was just bootlooping, it now shows me an entirely different screen reading "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again."
Since then i have tried a different firmware file, still 4.1.2, Odin get's to the very end of the procedure, and crashes at what i assume is the reboot portion. Desperately need assistance!
You can't flash anything other than 4.3 if you have the 4.3 bootloader.

OH. That makes a lot of sense....
I will try to flash a 4.3 firmware right now. Will i need some sort of .pit file or something to fix the initial bootloop? Or is that problem just totally blown out of the water at this point?

YES!
Found the proper 4.3 file, flashed it via Odin. Everything is stock and ready. If anybody wishes to help me root it from here or point me in the right direction that'd be great but other than that, thanks for letting me post here and thanks to those who helped me out!

Currently the only way to root your OTA 4.3 Note 2 is to use saferoot, read this thread carefully

I found myself in the same situation. Where might I find the PIT file? I can't reboot the phone to get the PIT file because it's soft bricked like mzaric's phone was. I'm using Mac OS X so I'm having to use JOdin3 to flash the stock 4.3 firmware back, but without the PIT file I can't continue and I've searched endlessly to find the PIT file. Also a somewhat related question, I heard JOdin isn't good for flashing big files, but I have no alternative, is the stock firmware which is 1.1gb too big to flash?
EDIT: I sadly didn't search hard enough thank you droidstyle for the guide. But my next question is I'm unsure of what version the phone is because when I originally tried to do the CASUAL unlock I believe it was on 4.1.2, but I think it softbricked to begin with because it was 4.3. Should I just try doing the 4.1.2 and if it doesn't take, retry with the 4.3?
If you flashed n7100 firmware you are screwed. If not just Odin back to stock. You were on 4.1.2 if you were unlocked using casual. Don't go to 4.3
