Can't wipe data - Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II

Tried restoring via ODIN, re-unlocking using No You Verizon, re-installed PHILZ, but every time I try to wipe data it hangs.
What do I do?

Have you tried a different recovery such as twrp?

Tried TWRP and it worked! Then re-flashed PHILZ and no more issues. Thank you!

[Q] New to rooting i717

I have an AT&T i717 running ics stock rom. I installed cwm 5.0. something and was intending on installing the CM10 JellyBean rom from paranoid. It would not install from sd card. tried another rom from diff developer, same thing. I read that I needed an updated cwm so I tried to flash another, wouldnt work with the version of ODIN i had so i upgraded to v3.07, was able to flash another and then when I went to recovery it stayed in a black screen, reflashed the older version of cwm and now when I go to recovery it will show the main screen, but if I try to install or even reboot it takes the menu away and shows the symbol in the center. Am I just completely stupid? Have I missed something?
Are you rooted?

Do I select factory reset or system from the twrp menu?

Did it work?
Figured it out. Cleared both cache and delvik Cache and did a factory reset. worked like a charm. thanks for the help and I hope this helps others as well.
Just for future reference, also wiping system along with wiping cache/dalvik and factory reset is good practice. Sometimes not wiping system can cause some issues.

[Q] Alcatel OT-995 stuck on boot screen/softbricked

Hi guys,
Last week, I was installing some custom ROMs on my brothers OT-955.
Everything worked fine, I got CWM on there and installed a ROM called PAC (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2088694).
It worked pretty well, but the phone froze a couple of times a day so I decided to try some others yesterday.
When I installed a CM-based ROM, I got a 'status 7' error in CWM and after I rebooted the phone was stuck in a boot loop.
After a while, it showed up when I ran `fastboot devices` and I was able to get it into recovery and install a different ROM.
When that ROM had some trouble I ran into the same 'status 7' error with another one.
I miss-clicked and rebooted instead of installing a working ROM.
Once again, I was able to reboot to recovery using fastboot and everything worked out.
Fast forward 30 minutes, the last ROM had some trouble too and I decided to move back to stock.
CWM reported that stock was installed successfully so I rebooted.
Since then, the phone won't move past the boot screen.
Fastboot doesn't recognize it, `adb` used to recognize it as offline until I replugged it.
I already:
Reinstalled the device driver
Cycled the power (empty, full)
Tried a different host machine
I have no idea what to try next.
Is there someone here with general 'stuck on bootscreen' experience or in-depth OT-995 experience?
Kind Regards,
Tim
Have you wiped cache and dalvik cache before installing a ROM ? You should also format the /system partition for a clean install. Before installing a ROM.

Yes, I wiped the data and cache before installing new ROMs.
I did not format the /system partition, though.
Try wiping cache, dalvik cache and format /system then install the ROM. Hope this works

I have no way to get to the recovery since I can't connect using fastboot or adb.

Oh so the only way to enter CWM is through adb ? Not using any key combinations ? Like volume up or down ?

It's not my own phone so I don't know for sure, but it isn't volume down + power on.
I'm also pretty sure that something is wrong beyond that.
If I had fastboot access I would just directly boot the image (although I did flash it).
EDIT: oh wow, volume up did it.
How stupid of me to not try it.
Okay so you're in recovery ?

[Q] Too much rebooting time after factory reset

Hello all
I was doing factory reset on my Samsung Galaxy y duos GT-S6102 using ClockWorkMod recovery. For this I followed these steps. After it, on rebooting the system, it's taking too much time. It has already been upto 8-9 hours and still in process and it's being annoying now
Please tell me what's the general time it takes to reboot after formatting using ClockWorkMod recovery?
Sounds like you wiped your system partition, flash a new ROM or a backup

Thanks for the reply demkantor. Yes I wiped my systems partition. So what to do now to get my phone start? For flashing a new ROM it requires the phone to be switched on.

I am booting it into normal mode. Doesn't work
So you are saying you can not boot into recovery or bootloader no matter how hard you try? The only thing you can do is boot to os and it fails?
There is no way of getting into recovery mode or bootloader?

No, I am saying that I tried both recovery or bootloader mode, it fails. And even booting in normal mode fails. The only thing I am seeing for hours while booting is the black screen with my phone name.
Unfortunately if you can't get into bootloader and have no functioning os or recovery there is nothing to do but JTAG, unless you phone has a download mode function. I'm unfamiliar with your specific phone but many samsungs have a download mode, can you get into this.

Yes....my Galaxy y duos GT-S6102 has download mod. What to do with it now?
Use Odin or hiemdall to flash back to stock, it will be like the day you got your phone, everything but SD card will be returned to stock.

Phone goes direct to download mode

As title says, verizon note 2 when powered off it goes to download/odin mode. I can connect to odin and I have reflashed the beanstown mj9 modem again. No luck with that. I then odin'd to 4.1.2 stock but still unlocked bootloader.
I have wiped system wiped cache and dalvik while also factory resetting.
I'm at a loss as to what's causing the issue and also how to fix.
My next step is to completely start from scratch and reload stock firmware 4.1.2 vramc3 with locked bootloader and then unlock everything and root again.
Any other ideas?

Look in the general thread for Data partition fix.. Follow the directions about flashing stock recovery and then doing a factory reset with the stock recovery.
