I got my replacement note 2 today, and immediately rooted it. I attained root with no problems, but in my impatience i tried to flash recovery, i forgot to unlock the bootloader. Now my phone hangs up on the screen with a triangle telling me to take it back to verizon. in odin i flashed every stock file from iamnuts, including mirrors. i tried to flash the alternate restore, but im not sure what to do with the .xz

download the sch-i605-16gb.pit file and put it in the PIT section and put the alternate restore in the PDA and it should work. same thing happened to me last week

You need to unzip the .xz file. After you unzip it you should have .tar.md5 file, that is what you flash in Odin.
If it still fails you need to go to Droidstyles guide and try the pit flashing method.

Or use the alternate restore download like the stickies tell you to

[Q] Help how to recover phone away from semi-bricked?

Hi all i just tried to flash a offical rom with odin than it fails so i unplug it now whenever i switch on i see Firmware upgrade encountered an issue, Please select recovery mode in kies. I believed it is semi brick the reason that cause the brick probably because i select the wrong option in bootloader however i have not fiddel with the pit or partition. which is the best way to get out? i have been googling awhile but no clear definte answer
Just go to Download Mode (Vol Down+Home+Power) and flash a full firmware again, via Odin, this time don't do anything wrong

That's the correct thread. Don't know what is wrong!
You sure you are flashing a Full firmware, i.e- around 300MB size? Just extract it, you will get a .tar, add to the PDA section of Odin.

Your phone is not bricked it's a fault from your phone
Give me more details so I can help you!
PS here are official firmwares >>> http://www.samfirmware.com/fwandroid.htm
wow thanks ! i just try to fiddling an now got it rebooted with nothing wrong: This is what i have done i have just choosen csc and pda and leave the phone without any option will that be fine?
is quite weird the phone basiclly updated to a new firmware lost the root but the clockworkrecovery is still intact, so i tried to root it again, and it works fine, so i think is possible to flash without selecting the phone option in odin??????????
You just need to select PDA in Odin, nothing else.
And when you flash a ROM, even the same old ROM you had, you will lose Root, you've to Re Root.
Regards.

[Q] HELP!! Telus samsung fascinate E:signature error

Ok i need help so i have the telus samsung fascinate 4g and yes it is rooted its running 2.3.4 and i have put CWM on it but every time i try to boot into the recovery it goes to the stock recovery and when i try to install a rom on it i get that stupid E:signature verification failed or whatever it is how to i fit it so i can install roms
How did you load the cwm recovery onto the phone? If you didn't use the program odin, then you didn't do it right. The reason it boots to the stock recovery is because your cwm recovery didn't load. Pretty simple to fix, just download odin and read up about it (its very simple to use) and then flash this cwm recovery using the program : http://dl.dropbox.com/u/32493357/cwm4_fixed_for_cm7-ODIN.tar
Then boot into recovery and you will have cwm recovery!
ok so where do i put this file in odin?

Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
Just a heads up if you did not know already, make sure you only use files that are compatible with telus.... flashing a fascinate rom on a telus version will leave you bricked.
ok so i put it in the pda section and i hit start and the phone it was in download mode and it registered but when i hit start i got this message

if it has only one big file then put in PDA section and flash, leave all the others to default values before pressing flash.
Double check the rom you have downloaded. People often flash i9100 roms to other variants.

Are you sure you are flashing the right ROM for your device?

[Q] Unable to reflash stock rom SCH-I605

So I just got a Galaxy Note II SCH-i605 (Verizon) and decided to root the phone. Unfortunately, I didn't unlock the bootloader before flashing the rom and the phone is currently soft bricked. No problem, before I started I had downloaded the stock rom from samsung-updates.com for the make and model of my phone. I begin to reflash the stock rom and about 10% in Odin displays an error and stops flashing the new rom. I attempted to download roms from other places for my phone but they all stop at the same spot when flashing (including the one found here).
Could someone kindly tell me what I'm doing wrong?

It's weird, I just tried reflashing the rooted OS and this time it wiped the old image completely and is working fine now. I really hate the "magically fixes itself" solution. Because I don't exactly learn anything from it. However thanks for the information because I'll be sure to note that before trying anything else.

[Q] Galaxy S4 (tmo) bootlooped and can't access recovery, only download

I tried to do a cyanogenmod update, but something went wrong and now I can't boot into android. I've tried going back into the recovery mode to reflash the rom, but it freezes there. I've also tried flashing clockworkmod recovery through ODIN and download mode, but the download back never moves at all, so I'm not sure if I can't use download mode or if it's just that ODIN isn't doing anything. I'm not sure what to do anymore, does anyone have any idea how to get me out of this?

you could try heimdall.
it seems like you got a corrupted download or the boot.img is jacked up.
it wont help to flash the same rom.
grab stock files (need pit file) and flash with heimdall or odin.(preferably not using windows 8/8.1)

yes, take a cynagoen mod flashable zip, put it into an ext4 system.img if it isnt already one, then make an odin tar.md5 out of it.(if your already lost then your screwed)
It's not uncommon to need to reboot to recovery to factory reset after flashing the firmware through Odin or Heimdall as many of the packages do not wipe data as they are meant to be update versions.
