Boot Loop after flashing stock

I was recently using Stunner ICS but decided I wanted to go back to stock and start over. I downloaded the stock N7000XXKJ4_N7000OXXKJ4 firmware and installed it through odin. I did not receive any errors on the phone or on my PC. But now it seems like my phone is stuck in a boot loop. It just keeps showing the samsung boot animation over and over. I used the download jig to get into download mode and tried redoing the firmware twice already with no luck. One thing I did notice is that the jig is no longer resetting the binary counter. Does anyone have any other ideas or is my phone possibly bricked?

This is supposed to be in Q& A section... Anyways... Did you try wipe?

What worked for me having the same problem recently is go to Recovery mode (Volume up + home + power) and you'll see this funny kinda recovery, not at all CWM Do a data wipe/factory reset and then reboot.

Same thing happened with me yesterday, wipe in recovery fixed the problem

I'm sorry. Mods please move to appropirate section.
Thank you guys. I was beginning to freak out. I was trying to do the recovery menu but couldn't get it to work. I thought the recovery menu was also hosed but I had the wrong buttons. All is good now! thank you so much!

First thing you need to do if you want to get back GB, flash abyss 3.9 redpill kernel.
After that flash GB rom.
So later you can flash whatever kernel you want

Hanging at Samsung logo; can't boot into recovery; am I bricked???
Hi guys...
I've been semi bricked for about 18 hours now. And it's starting to look like it's a full-brick.
I had the latest Gingerbread ROCKET ROM on my Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000, with the latest Franco kernel in place.
I thought I'd give the ICS version of ROCKET ROM a go. Flashed Abyss4.2 kernel without any hassles. Used 'advanced' to boot into recovery. Did my various wipes. Flashed the ICS Rocket Rom zip. And got caught up in the recurring boot-up, mostly upgrade, run, reboot cycle that's been described in many places.
Didn't panic.
Booted into recovery again, and flashed the ICS Rocket Rom again.
But this time, it wouldn't go past the SAMSUNG logo.
Still, I could boot into recovery.
Which I did.
And I tried to restore my Gingerbread build from Nandroid.
Tried it. But it hung on the Samsung logo again.
With one key difference... Now, no matter how much I try, I can't boot into recovery.
I *CAN* boot into 'download' mode. So I've used PC Odin to try and inject a rooted Gingerbread rom into the phone.
The instructions tell me to wait for the phone to reboot twice. Sadly, it tries its first reboot, and doesn't get past the Samsung logo. And that's where it hangs. No recovery mode either.
What shall I do??? Oh, woe is me. Etcetera.
--------------------------------------------------------
UPDATE
--------------------------------------------------------
I found a version of Abyss 4.2 kernel in tar format. I flashed it via PC ODIN, and I now seem to have a phone that can boot again.
Not much more to report at the moment, cos the battery is on about 3%, so I'm charging it now before delving further. Will give more feedback once the battery's up and running again.
Here's a link to the Abyss file: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1072122&d=1337500067

I tried all of this, was on stock ICS 4.0.3 and had it rooted.
I tried to restore a backup which was sadly on GB and then the restore of /data failed
I then tried to flash paranoid custom rom and it was successful but the phone never went any further than SAMSUNG GALAXY NOTE GT-N7000 logo
I then Flashed a direct rootable stock rom via PC odin and all was well but the phone would never go any further than the logo before mentioned
I tried flashing AbyssNote kernel via pc odin but the CWM recovery menu kept on rebooting hence leaving me with not particular choice to select
Tried wiping data, cache mem, dalvik cache but no use and now i am on stock recovery menu. please help me out

i have this Samsung i9220 china i try to flash upgrade the firmware with Odin3 v1.85 . i got stock phone can't power non recover modem non booting logo , does anyone have any ideas ?

HELP - Alliance rom installed - stuck on boot screen

HELP please!
I was on Rocket rom V3 (LPY), flashed abyss 4.2, rebooted into new recovery, 3 wipes, then installed Alliance, and now the phone gets stuck at the Galaxy Note boot screen. Tried rebooting and going into recovery to factory reset, and tried reinstalling Alliance rom via recovery, but still gets stuck at galaxy note boot screen.
Strange thing is - when I reboot into recovery, it's still abyss recovery! Shouldn't there be a new alliance recovery??

Update: I tried installing speedmod kernel via abyss, but the Phone still stucks on boot screen - was there a problem with my Alliance rom download file?? What should I do?? I have a copy of Rocket rom V3 on my phone, should I just reinstall that?

Can you flash stock gb via Odin reroot then try again always good practice to return to stock gb when things start to play up

yes you should use odin and revert back to gb 1st.. refer alliance rom thread and follow the installation steps carefully..
[Alliance Rom]

try this
get back to gb via odin as described by dr. ketan see hiz forum and then follow simple odin steps as mentioned by robbie hood in hiz alliance rom forum. Thats all no need to flash any abyss kernel.

If you are not goin to follow the guide by robbie,You are goin to face face problems in future with RW permissions when using alliance ota.So just follow the guide to the core.
I dont understand how ppl skip the OP and read a wrong method to flash which is posted after 4-5 pages...Remember,Always the dev hows the situation and always stick on to their guide.

Stuck mith mu GNote

Hi,
I' in trouble with my note. It stucks at samsung logo animation and i cant make it boot to ics anymore (i'm on stock 4.03 ics rom)
This is what happend : i played/bench beetween gl_notecore kernel v9.x/v10.x and chainfire 3D driver install/uninstall, all was fine and suddenly my phone freezed at ics homescreen after a soft reboot (OC or whatever make it freezed).
So i hard reboot it by pressing power button 10 sec, and now, it dont full boot anymore.
I tried to flashed many kernel through cwm onboard kernel stuff (notecore/speedmod..), tried wipe cache, tried to flash stock rom (N7000XXLQ3_N7000XXLPT_N7000XEFLP1_HOME.tar.md5) throught odin but result is same. Phone is indefinitly show samsung animation logo screen without finally boot into ics.
I dont know if chainfire 3d driver is the guilty one but fresh rom flash dont unbrick it ?
What's my solution now ? i didnt tried to full wipe before flashing stock rom and i'd prefer not. but...
thanks for your help :good:

To be on safe side i would try to flash a stock gb rom first then move to ics later. Flash gb stock from dr.ketan thread then go into recovery and wipe ....then it should boot.

Download a GB Rom from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997
Flash it using PC Odin. If your phone stuck at bootscreen logo or you face any issues do a Wipe by going to recovery mode. (GB Kernels are safe to Wipe)
Now Check whether the issue is still there or not.

Gb flashed successfully, and phone boot normally.
But GB soft reboot a lot. Seems flashing gb over ics without a wipe make a mess in the rom =)
Going to wipe and flash ics back.
Tanks a lot !

Remember not to WIPE on ICS Stock Kernel. When you want to flash on Stock ICS remember to flash a safe kernel first like notecore/hardcore/etc

No matter, i'm aware of MMC_CAP_ERASE brick of the death
I will do like i did before. flashing notecore kernel through odin and triangle away
Edit : oh wait.. and i'll never install chainfire 3d again

[Q] Need help flashing

Just got my Galaxy S back from my Mum today (After I bricked it and sent for repair) she got a note2 omg... Decided to flash a custom rom..
Here goes..
First I followed this guide completelyhttp://http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S:_Full_Update_Guide. After I flash the CM 10, my recovery was upgraded to v6.0.1.5 after reboot. But I cannot get pass the recovery. I will have the cm boot animation, then back to recovery again. Tried reflashing the rom, doesnt say any errors but still gets stuck at recovery.
Then I went thru the method at the wiki.cyanogenmod again and successfully flashed cwm recovery 2.5 again. Tried flashing the CM10 rom again but this time round, It shows a long error message ending with "status 7"
I am still able to go into download mode.
Was on stock unrooted 2.3.3 DXJV9.
I made the super no.1 noob mistake of not making a backup........... But, why is rooting and flashing of this phone so hard.....
Pls, any help is greatly appreciated.

Btw, I have manage to flash the stock image via odin but is still stuck in a boot loop.. after Odin completed and reboot, I am back into the stock recovery with the below error messages.

It will work

U just use GB jw4(your region) ROM (don't use single file like PDA).........you use files separately like this [PDA,phone,CSC,pit(512 or 513)]...............use Odin 1.85 for flashing files......,when u complete the flashing it automatically reboot to fulfill the flashing...........then also it gives red error means........ clear only wipe cache and don't clear wipe all data...........reboot your system..... I think this will work for u...........:fingers-crossed:

Thanks. Have it solved. Flashed with another rom with seperate files. I was using the the all in one previously. Got it to run CM10 nightly though till now still not too sure how... But, I m real happy now. It works great so far and I couldnt understand why Sammy refuse to roll out official ones even for 4.0..
Still trying to figure out how to root, flash SGS though.. I have done so for many other device but by far,... this phone is the most complicating....

Aj rocker root
By processor only we not getting stock ICS rom but we getting custom ROM by hacking processor.............
For rooting the ROM u want to be in stock GB ROM like 2.3.5 or 2.3.6 and then u want to download this file(http://download.chainfire.eu/132/CF-Root/SGS/CF-Root-XX_OXA_JVU_2.3.6-v4.3-CWM3RFS.zip)............. after download u want to open Odin 1.85 and select PDA then choose the downloaded file...........select start to flash the file.........reboot and enjoy the root bosssss......if u like this press thanks:fingers-crossed:

Just to make sure..
What I did was,
Flashed Android 2.3.5 XXJVS Firmware and rooted with CF-Root-XX_OXA_JVS-v4.1-CWM3RFS.zip
Flashed the speedmod kernel via heimdall
Wiped data/cache. Flashed Latest CM10 nightly
( at this point, there was a error "status 0" installation aborted. When I reboot, the CM10 boot animation flashed twice and it brought me straight to CWM 6.0.1.5. Is this normal behaviour?? Then, not too sure what to do, I wipe data/cache and flashed CM10 and gapps again. this time round, installation successful and after reboot it boot into CM10. )
Is the above normal behaviour?
Next time I wish to change rom, from where I now( CM10) just need to wipe Data/cache and flashed the other rom?

Try to see if you can flash another custom Rom, if that works then it could be that your files are corrupted..
Have you stated your problem over at CM forums..

Most times from GB to JB u have 2 flash custom 2, 3 times. So its normal when flashing custom the first time it takes u to bootanimation and hangs (take out battery and go to recovery with 3 button combo and flash again till it says install is completed) or directly into recovery.
If u wanna flash other jb rom just full wipe and flash new custom. Make sure u make a nandroid backup so u can go back easily

[Q] GALAXY S I9000 -boot loop(how to fix?)

(sorry for my English )
the thing is that my Samsung S wont starts ,when i click the power button its starts in CWM RECOVERY and when i press "reboot system now" it enters a boot loop (the logo keeps running over and over and the phone)
before this happened i originally had the stock ROM of my cellular carrier (2.3.3
then i decided to install another rom and kernel (cyanogenmod 10) so i installed first a clean stock rom (2.3.6) via odin
and then the cyanogenmod rom and kernel (up to now its all fine)
after that i wanted to change and install other rom so i installed again the clean stock rom 2.3.6 via odin...and from then it started to boot loop.
i thought that if i will install the kernel again it will be OK ,but it wont..
and now im in the situation that i have described above..
help SOMEONE please=]

it is because the latest CM10 is based on a different partitioning layout than the stock one.. after flashing CM10 once when you go in a boot loop.. go to CWM recovery by using the three button combo and flash CM10 again.. . this time your rom will boot:good:

I installed the kernel and then the stock rom again but now its just bootlooping without getting load up to CWM recovery
so how can i get into CWM recovery????
(i tried VolumeUP+HOME+POWER but it just get into regular recovery...)

pull out your battery for a couple of minutes then replace battery
;hold three button forever or until it goes into recovery if that doesnt work
reflash through odin and do it again or check out darkyrom 10. re this gets flashed through odin

flash darkyrom 10.2 Resurrection edition using odin.. this will give you a GB rom with root
flash CM10 through CWM recovery
reboot.. (you may not be able to boot as of now)
go to CWM recovery again using 3 button combo
flash CM10 again
reboot
this should do the trick

THANK YOU TWO
the Darkys rom 10.2 re was great --- it starts now hahah
i Will try now another rom (not cyagonmod but PilotX)
thank you very muchhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
