[Q] HELPPPPP please soft brick

Hey peeps iv got a big problem it happened yesterday with my Galaxy note GTn7000. I was on stock ICS LPT and was flashing new kernels through CWM when suddenly my phone just kept freezing on the Samsung screen when I start it up and it has been happening since yesterday. I think it was the speedmod ICS kernel that I flashed that made this happen. I flashed Abys kernel through odin and could get in to CWM. I did factory reset/wipe cache/dalvik/cache and then flashed checkrom which was on my SD card. Installation was fine but then it got stuck on the Galaxy note startup screen. I was searching for answers on the XDA forums and someone suggested that you flash a stock full wipe GB rom. So I tried to flash LC1 open Europe rom and was waiting for an hour the the rom to flash through ODIN which had only a bit left on the bar to flash and it didn’t flash it just froze. I tried 3 times and the same thing happened . I have used the USB jig to erase previous downloads and reset binary count. I flashed ICS LPT rom through odin and it flashed normally but when it starts up it gets stuck on the Samsung screen. Any suggestions? I can get into download mode and CWM so it means Im in a softbrick. Do you think I should download an ICS rom and put it on to my SD card and then try flashing it ? Help would be appreciated thanks.
Here is the video of what happens. Basically i have waited for 4 hours yesterday and it just stays on the samsung screen

Hey, Id recommend you flashing back to GB via ODIN before we continue.
ICS still has a few bugs and that could interfere with getting you back up and running.

Hey thanks i will download a new GB stock rom, i cant post the video link because im a new member dang...

So you've extracted the original tar file, you don't need to, just point the original tar file to the pda section of pc odin, it will sort out each partition for you.

Is it a rar. Or a zip? If it's a rar, re download from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997 then extract one level with 7zip to get the tar file.

Is my phone bricked?

I recently upgraded my phone to g-note from s2, it came with gingerbread 2.3.6 out of the box and i couldn't wait to flash it with ICS.
I first tried rooting it first with that runme command prompt tool... but that wasn't successful at all, so i then tried to to flash it with
AbyssNotekernel42CWTouchOriginalLogo_2. After reboot my phone got stuck on the boot logo with a yellow triangle. I can still get
my phone into download mode. Problem is my phone has now got 3 counts of binary, can i still flash an official stock rom? What
can i do to fix this? Thanks in advance.

Ok. Dont worry about the binary count and yellow triangle.
Your status consider safe and nothing to worry. As l can see u are from s2, therefore i think u will quite well understanding in terms of using pc odin.
It have a lot of method to flash stock or custom rom. Rather thru pc odin / mobile odin and recovery for custom rom in zip file.
1). Download any desire stock ics rom at sammobile.
2.) Unzip the rom file which u download from sammobile.
3. Open pc odin.
4). Boot ur phone into download mode. Connect usb cable to ur phone and pc.
5). Once connected and yellow colour comm appeared. Press pda button and choose the right file.( tar file about 850mb++).
6. Reminder: Do not tick any box other than what im mentioned here.
7). Press start ...you are done.

1.) Kick yourself.
2.)Read the instructions thrice before doing anything.
Now for the real stuff-
3.)Download any stock GB ROM.Stock Roms
4.)Wipe Data
5.)Root it by following the same thread.
6.)Install any ICS ROM.Follow the instrutions to the letter.Then use TriangleAway.apk to clear binary count.(Search the forum for the apk)
7.)You're done.
8.)If you have problems search for a solution.If you don't find it, ask.
Always happy to help

For simple rooting.
1). Download speed-mod k3-13 kerner ( odin version).
2). Flash it thru pc odin.
3). Wait phone reboot and settle down. Download triangle away and reset the binary count follow instruction given. Done.
Good luck mate.

is it safe to flash gb rom (from ics) via pc odin
i want paranoid rom to flash (is it safe to install via CWM?)
if i want to come back on gb then my phone not bricked
one more q : when i install paranoid then i recover som space on hard disc ? ( because gb is 650 mb+ and paranod jelly bean is only <300 mb)

Simply flash pre rooted ROM from my signature with PC odin
After successfull flashing, wipe cache,delvic cache and data.
Then follow instruction on paranandroid ROM thread.
You cant manipulate system ROM space..

Do full wipe on abyss kernel..
N flash paranoid..

i have the tar file for N7000JPLA1_N7000OJPLA1_N7000XXLA4_HOME.tar
will flashing via pc odin cause a brick ? and will the emmc fault still remain ?

Jpla1 is gb rom, you can flash with pc odin, after flashing you may find force close, but nothing to worry Reboot in recovery and wipe cache and data.
Once you are on gb rom no issue of brickbug.

thanks,
sotck ics lags a lot and when i went to ssc they advised me they dont have currently the old rom so they told me to wait for an update to fix ics which i dont think i will go back to (for the time being)
i was worried that flashing the GB stock over the ics might brick the phone using pc odin so thx for your support
will install via pc odin then reboot in recovery (power up + home + power) factory reset after the gb kernel installs
hopefully get this big screen running again

How to unroot my Galaxy note from cm9

Hello friends,
I'm using cm9 rom on my Samung Galaxy Note , now i wanna go back to stock rom and also wanna unroot my device.. can i just flash the stock rom and kernels directly or do i need to go through some other process.. and one more query is that , odin is not detecting my phone , so how can i flash the stock kernel and rom? ? reply Asap.. Thanks in advance

Yes flash straight way Stock GB ROM with Odin, then wipe cache and data.
Odin is not detecting then it is issue of driver. Uninstall kies and just install driver (find it from Toolbox on my signature)

Just flash stock GB rom using pc odin and you will be back to stock (unrooted as well). No need to flash kernel separately as flashing stock GB will also change kernel to stock. After flashing GB rom, you can either use odin to update to ICS or can use kies or OTA.
EDIT- Checked previous posts after posting mine

@safijunaid
Just like the previous posts said, you need to remove PC KIES completely from your PC and reinstall it again. The problem on PC ODIN not detecting your phone is that, your PC might have some corrupted Samsung/adb drivers (needed by PC ODIN as well), Reinstalling PC KIES will reinstall those corrupted or missing Samsung drivers on your PC, hence, next time you plug back your phone to connect to your PC, PC Odin will rightly detect it already. (It would have a yellow box :COM on it whiche means it had already detected your device).

Help me, my galaxy note N7000 died...(Formware upgrade ancountered an issue.)

Hello everybody.
I have a problem in my gt-N7000.
I tried to install the CM10, install normal.
I installed Gapps also normal.
When I went to wipe it crashed.
Now no more enters recovery mode, download mode only.
When I turn it only gets in this mensage:
"Formware upgrade ancountered an issue. Pease select recovery mode in Kies & try again."
I've tried to pass other Stock Roms via Odim, but always hangs Odim.
I do not know what else to do, will my phone still has solution?

And have you tried that recovery mode in Kies?

Hello,
Unfortunately I do not know which kernel was using, but I was the Official Rom 4.0.3.
I'm downloading now the site of the kernel SamMobile'll try and pass via Odin.
If it does not work, post the error here ok?

Ok.. also.. what was your flashing method? which file did you flash first? was your phone rooted?

I do not know if I can answer all your questions ... I did not root the phone.
I tried going through the kernel odin said that he caught up and in factoryms.img, as stated in the attached image.
Do not know if this is of great relevance but I can not give Wipe the recovery mode, it also crashes and resets the phone.
What should I do? = /

1. I don't know what you mean by this.? The was was not rooted or some one else rooted it for you?
2. The place where odin is stuck could indicate a brick. So you need to be precise in the info you give.
3. Did you use cwm.zip to install the rom directly on a non rooted phone?

If ODIN is working for you,
Get your mobile flashed with Philz Kernel by putting the TAR file on PDA.
Enter Philz Kernel in recovery and flash a ROM of your choice.
If you can't then u r a superbrick.

Sorry for my english, I'm using google translation.
I was using the official version 4.0.3, so I entered the reovery and installed CWM and the file to the Root. Shortly thereafter, without restarting the phone installed the CM10 and then the gapps. When I do the Wipe the phone crashed.
Since then, officials have spent several Roms by Odin and all lock.
I do not know if I was very clear on the information, but now the phone is locked it sansumg logo. And when he enters recovery does not wipe, lock and resets the device.
Again, sorry for my english.

So you have flashed cwm.zip and the the root file and then on the same temp recovery, wiped.? That is serious mistake and it seems a brick.

Download the PIT file, open odin and choose the file in PIT tab. Make sure the repartition is checked. Then load the rom in pda tab. Flash the rom again.
