Please help! I messed up my phone flashing Abyss kernel.

Hi everyone. I desperately need your expertise and help please. I had Stunner ICS rom running on my Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000, but it seemed to be a bit of a battery drain, so I figured I'd get another rom. So before that I flashed AbyssNotekernel42CWTouchOriginalLogo.tar with PC Odin just to be safe (oh, the irony) because I wasn't sure what kernel I was on, and that was when the trouble started.
Basically, the phone cannot be booted now. I don't even see the Samsung logo screen, it's just Samsung GALAXY NOTE GT-N7000 with a yellow triangle. I tried booting into clockworkmod recovery, but cannot move the selection up or down or make any selections, so I can't even install recoveries or anything.
Is it bricked? What can I do to save my phone? Please, help!

Don't Panic. I know how it feels when you get this type of problems. Lets start to sort it out
Its because Abyss is being used to flashing roms to be on safer side.
First Switch off your phone.
Now Press Vol Up+Home+Power Button simultaneously and keep it holding all three buttons while you get into recovery mode.
Now flash a safe kernel and reboot system.
Let me know if it worked for you

Hello, thanks so much for replying! I did manage to enter recovery mode, but I'm unable to make any selections. In recovery mode, it seems like the screen refreshes every few seconds, so I cannot scroll up or down properly, much less flash any kernels...

In that case, try using your finger to make selections just like how you use a phone normally with your finger. I believe the selection keys don't work for that version.

So is it not possible to make selection by touching the buttons ?
because you will have Abyss Touch Recovery for now

Put Phone into Download Mode by pressing Volume. down+Home Key +Power Key
Flash Stock GB (Pre-rooted LC1 from Bodivas - VERY IMPORTANT )
Do all Wipes. (reset,cache and dalvik)
Flash Abyss 4.2 through Mobile Odin and not PC Odin
Again Wipe All.
Flash Stock ICS thru PC Odin
Root by Dr. ketan method
Use Triangle away app.
Done

Wow... I'm an idiot. Thanks guys! It never occurred to me that I can use the touch screen during recovery, just too used to the volume buttons I guess. Anyway I managed to install the Stunner ICS .zip again so now my phone seems to be back to its original state. Phew.
I'm still wondering though, because I'm pretty sure Abyss is quite a safe kernel. What should I do to avoid such things happening again?
Thank you all!

You should test to see if the screen workswith your finger to avoid that happening again

Never Reboot the system after flashing Abyss. Just Reboot Recovery. Flash Rom,(Flash Gapps if you are going to cm9,AOKP,AOSP,etc) and then reboot system

So if I'm using PC Odin I should un-check Auto Reboot?

Why you need PC Odin to flash Abyss Recovery ? You can do it with CWM. or if you want to flash using PC Odin flash GB rom(Prerooted) and then follow the procedures

Abyss is a safe kernel. The issue was that you installed abyss kernel (GB kernel) with a rom which can't work with such kernel (needed ics kernel).
After you installed abyss and getting stuck on the galaxy note screen you should have rebooted in recovery mode, do the three wipes and installed your new rom.

Oops, sorry for the noobness overload! I didn't know Abyss is a GB kernel. So I should have rebooted into recovery mode and installed the new rom immediately after flashing Abyss, or should I have used an ICS kernel in the first place?

Did you read stickies ? Would you mind read this whole thread ? I said there is no need to flash Abyss via PC Odin. And for Root Why you flashed Abyss ? Abyss is to be used when you are on ICS and want to flash a New Rom . Since GB roms are safe to flash There is no need to flash Abyss on GB Roms.
Which rom version you are on ? Know it or not ?
If you know the version then download stock GB kernel from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1371007
Use PC Odin to flash. I recommend to use Odin v1.83 or 1.87 to flash.
It will be fine.
First do this and Wipe Cache/Dalvik in Recovery if you face any problems after flashing by going to recovery mode.
Good Luck !!!
For Rooting the Rom Check this thread and follow the instructions (2nd Post) All credits to him.

Excuse my little experience, i always read online before doing anything, thats why i have only 5 posts since 2006. My BIG mistake is i followed instruction from another website. i guess im paying for this now.
My problem now is : I dont know which version of GB I had on the N7000, I buy it from Dubai. I tried to download the Kernel from the stock GB kernel link you provided but the link is broken .
I searched alot and couldnt find any .
I really appreciate your help. Im an adventurous person who likes to dive and learn. Strong heart Maybe

Help! stuck on SAMSUNG screen.

Hello today i downloaded application called Anim Mod and then i installed it and then i opened the Anim Mod application and pressed Blur button then it downloaded something and then i had to boot my phone. wel i did boot but its now stuck in this samsung logo screen. my phone was rooted
i didnt know what to do so i just went to recovery mode and set it to factory settings and booted and its still stuck on this samsung logo...

what rom are you on ?

Im not sure :/ i have only rooted my galaxy note nothing else but if it helps its running 4.0.4 ICS

so your recovery: was that the CWM or stock recovery ? If it is recovery 3e.. stop doing a factory reset.
download http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?3cnf2ax9apsebef and place it on external SD. then boot into recovery and choose apply update from ext storage
choose the zip you downloaded and flash it.
once done. power off and boot into recovery again
then do a factory reset, wipe cache, advanced> wipe dalvik cache. then reboot

Ummm i did flash that thing and i wiped data :/ i did all what you told me and its still stuck

Ok then boot into download mode and flash a stock rom using pc odin. This will take you to factory form. Start from there.

If not done correctly. Do not perform any kind of wipe on stock ics kernels. Install philz kernel for wipes. Otherwise this method is considered pretty safe.

How long this will take to put this stock rom? it has been installing it now for 10 min

6 mins approx. Where is it in the Odin? Stuck somewhere? Is the bar progressing in odin and on the phone?

no, there is no any bars at all :/ my phone shows me android robot and Downloading... Do not turn off target !! and odin shows some messages nothing about that its done or it have failed
Umm now i got error (Can't open the serial(COM) port)

You need to have Samsung uab drivers installed. Install kies first. That will install the required drivers. Them close kies and use odin again.

[Q] Bootloop + Recovery wont boot

So yeah i bricked my phone, its stuck in a damn bootloop and i cannot enter recovery no matter which one i install.
I even flashed stock rom via odin and tried both flashing twrp and cwm, none worked, whichever rom is installed i still get in a damn bootloop and i cannot boot into recovery (blank screen).
Is there anything i can do for my phone?
Thank you all in advance

Try to flash Dorimanx Kernel using Odin (v9.34 for JB Roms, v8. for Stock Roms)
I will upload a guide tomorrow for people facing problems with their recovery. I will edit this when its finished.

can you tell me what did you do to caused that ? or do you have download mode ?
anyway it seems to me a hard break . probably you messed your boot . you got two options:
1.use "RescuePDA" (you can find the thread and every thing in galaxy mini II development)
2.take it to a service center

Download mode is the only thing that works, as i said recovery wont boot and any rom i install is getting into a bootloop. ((
I used triangle away, the problems started after that. I had cwm and cm 10.1 08/18
Is there any way to factory reset using odin?

I have the same exact problem.
I follow the discussion with interest.

Zeruel, i seem to have somehow fixed the problem, however not entirely.
I downloaded some random recovery rom, flashed it with odin and wiped everything (cache, factory reset, dalvik cache), and reinstalled cm 10.1.
Then i flashed back the thewhisp's recovery and booted into cm with no problem.
However now i cannot boot into recovery using volume+- and home and power button, i have to boot to it from the cm.
That i dont know how to solve, but at least my phone works fine

Thank you, but I think to have solved the problem with RescuePDA.
A big thanks go to dlb4all, thank you a lot mate.

Hello!
Can you get into download or recovery mode?
If you can go to recovery try wipe cache and if it doesnt work try wipe data but remember it deletes all apps!!

Don't worry, it is just a digestion problem (bootloop). CF-root doesn't work with every firmware. If yours wasn't compatible, bootloop is normal reaction. Check my last thread and there you can find step-by-by step guide how to unbrick it.

Great, mate- I'm glad it works again
CF-Root is made AMAIK for Gingerbread ROMs only, and if you have Froyo it is enough to flash SpeedMod root kernel that already features CWM recovery, Busybox and SU. You should always ready very carefully the first posts of the files you flash, so you will void many potential problems.
If you did it after my unbrick guide thread, backup your IMEI No as soon as you root your phone (described how to)
Just click "thanks" button beyond posts which were useful for you, it is our way to express it on this forum (and many us here are visiting the forum to help each other)

[Q] Kinda odd bootloop (help ASAP, pls)

Sooo, I got a problem with my Galaxy Mini 2.
First, I wanted to flash Cm11 (by TheWhisp), but something went wrong during flashing process, and my device bootlooped.
I tried to go into recovery, but it didn't work.
Than I thought it might be a good idea to flash stock ROM via odin. I did it once in the past, with a succesful outcomes, so I fought it will work again.
This ended with a bootloop, only change was the logo during boot process. Than I tried to flash recovery but it didn't change anything.
So my phone is in bootloop, stock ROM flashing doesn't help, and I can't run recovery.
Any ideas how can I fix it?
