Am i have some step wrong or missed? did yours have a step by step and show me how to do??

Hi you,
I usually use these steps below to flash ROM
1. Use Odin to flash CWM that is compatible with your new ROM
2. Copy your new ROM into phone sdcard
3. Boot into CMW, wipe data/factory cache, wipe davik cache
4. Flash your new ROM and reboot.
Hope this help.

Have you done this prior to installation?
Wipe Data
Wipe Cache
Wipe System
Wipe Dalvik Cache
then install ROM...twice if first failed.
If there's still a problem, redownload the ROM.
Flashing stock Samsung ROM is still flashing a different ROM, you're not going back to the real stock as you are still running a ROM, in this case Samsung's ROM.

flash that in recovery first to wipe eveything then flash the rom and wipe dalvik then reboot and let it sit for 5 - 10 min then reboot again

Installing Roms on Galaxy Note II
Try rebooting the phone, that usually works for me when my phones get stuck booting up.

There are a few possibilities of what could have happened. The most possible one that I can think of is that you did not Wipe Data/factory rest before flashing your rom. When updating to a new rom, it is most of the time necessary to choose wipe data/factory reset from the recovery before flashing. So what you do now is: 1.Boot into recovery. 2. choose the wipe data/factory reset option(U will loose all ur apps that u have downloaded, your photos music and videos should remain intact tho) 3. Flash your ROM again.
Hope that helps
thank you

Imp:
Make your currunt working rom backup before anything you do with your phone. it will save you.

go to this post and flash the stock firmware via odin.
for installing custom rom, you will need root and cwm
go to recovery mode
choose install zip from sd card
choose the cwm file
this will install the cwm.
now wipe data and cache
go to advanced menu and wipe dalvik cache
then go to choose zip from sdcaed and select the rom
please make sure that you are using a proper custom rom file meant for your phone.
hit thanks if it helped

Try this first.
If your device is stuck at boot animation or facing boot loop issues then try the following steps:
Disconnect your phone from computer, close Odin and remove phone's battery. Reinsert it back within 3 to 4 seconds, re-launch Odin and then repeat the tutorial from step 4.

Otherwise, just go into your recovery and flash a custom KitKat or a Lollipop ROM. This method would remove all the data present on the phone, so I am assuming that you took a backup before handling odin. To flash a ROM, do this:
1. Download ROM and GApps and put them in your storage(MOUNT SDCARD FROM THE RECOVERY ITSELF)
2. Wipe Data/Factory Reset
3. Wipe Cache Partition
4. Advanced>Wipe Dalvik Cache
5. Flash ROM AND GApps
6. Reboot system.
Then you're good to go.
Regards.

Thanks you! my S II is ok now.
Hi guys,
I successfully followed the advice on this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/help/to-mod-s2-t3189884) and I have installed CM12.1 's nightly from 29/8.
I boot in once, no problem. But on the second boot the phone bricks. The only way I can get into the system again is to load Philz kernel again and reinstall. But after the second boot the phone bricks again.
Any ideas? It may be the nightly, but even updating to the latest (31/8) didn't fix this.
I can get the CM10.1 stable to work fine, but that drain my battery faster than I can charge it.
I'd like to use 12.1, though: am I just doing something wrong that causes the bricking?
thanks,

When you say I should flash the rom, do you mean I should unzip the stock and push it with Heimdall/Odin?

Excellent, thank you!
A few tips to anyone looking this up:
First, I used Heimdall - but apparently Odin is quite similar.
I had to unpack the stock rom and then individually flash the factoryfs and zimage files.
I then unpacked the Phils mod and flashed the zimage again.
That was all in download mode
After that I flashed CM12 in recovery mode.
