so do I have to do all of that or can I skip down to the flashing flashing of the tar files through odin?

I would suggest following the instructions to the letter from start to finish unless of course you want your soft brick to become a hard brick....

Yes i agree, ALL the steps......if you bricked it then you should take the time to fix it now that we are able to do so.

Ok, I did what you said, now it just goes to 'logo_ql.jpg' draw failed. It also wont let me get back into download mode, it just goes to this message. now what?
EDIT, nevermind, got it into download mode... guess i just need to keep trying different roms to figure out which one works?
You said your note came from repair and it was on download mode. I think it was NOT REPAIRED AT ALL. Country or region has nothing to do with manual flashing. You only need region when using kies to update.

Tbere is no need to try different roms as every rom is like same. Not much difference. Maybe your device is hard bricked and writing isn't possible. Get your motherboard replaced.

I did get it working... however, I went to reflash because when I did a factory data reset in CWM and it hung at erasing the data. So I reflashed the same way and now it gets stuck at the splash screen but it does boot, just not all the way up. what do I do?
EDIT: nevermind! got it! just had to use the stock recovery to wipe the data partitiopn and now my note is working great! thanks for your guys help!!

Don't ever wipe using stock ICS kernel. It will hard brick your device. I think now already got affected. Flash a safe kernel first then wipe.

So I have a question. I had tried rooting my device and it failed into a soft brick. Previously I had jzo54k on there. Using Odin I installed the Poland software but it seemed to have failed because now I am not able to register on a network. I have an international version of the Note 2 that I am using in the US. Since I am not able to connect to a network I am lost as to what to try. Any suggestions on where to go from here?

Hi
My stock JB official unrooted rom suddenly went to a bootloop. I looked up online for solutions and flashed an official JB ROM for my phone and Odin failed to flash it. I tried Philz recovery but Odin failed to flash it. I got a yellow triangle which I was able to removie through Odin. Currently my phone is stuck on the splash screen. Recovery doesn't work. Odin fails when I try to reflash with a md5.tar file. Please experts help me with my problem. would really appreciate it.
Thanks in advance.

This point to the case of superbrick mate. It has caused damage to your system and maybe also data partition. If you have warranty try to seek help from service center where they will replace mobo. Otherwise only repartition can help revive your phone. Follow the link from dr.ketan tool box in his signature to the guide for revive superbrick note cause by emmc bug. Hope you can make it. Cheers.

[Q] I957 ATT , touch screen not working after ICS upgrade

Hello,
I have gotten the stock ICS rom from samfirmware.com, Installed using ODIN and it all went green.
However, after restart the touch screen is not working !
I have tried the following:
1. First the Default (XXX) ICS rom
2. Second, the Actual ATT ICS rom
3. Flashed CWM and it is working
4. Then tried AOKP unofficial rom, not starting
No luck so far, any help is much appreciated please.
The touch screen was working after step 3?

It is the Odin version I have used,
One more note now, am not sure if that is normal if not.but after the latest flash ( preceded by a data wipe and format ) I can now see zip file I have placed on sdcard but can't access them for flashing and/or ad new zip files from pc
In cwm do a factory reset, wipe and format system and data and then boot. I'm hoping that will solve the problem.

Tried,booted, "SAMASUNG"screen only ( as expected sicne i formatted the system ), then re-flushed the ATT ICS and same output
Am trying to get a new ROM flashed, but when the device powers up [ without me going through the wizard ], i can't write anything to SD from my PC.
Any info around here about flashing CM or AOKP using ODIN for this I957 ?
Not with Odin that I'm aware of. All are zip files and would go thru cwm. If you get only to the Samsung logo, my experience has been a factory reset usually gets you past that and if that doesn't work flashing the stock rom with Odin does. And I'd flash the honeycomb rom and bring it back to they way I bought it, then upgrade to ics

As for Booting to samsung screen .. i did format /system as suggested, so there will be no system to boot to i think

I should mention something that has gotten me worried, i flashed a TWRP recovery to check if the touch would work there, but it didn't.
Not sure if i should be worried about HW now, or try another TWRP for instance? Or perhaps TWRP shares another flawed tab wide configuration with the Android image ?
It's not twrp, I use it on my tab and it Works fine. If you were the only one who has this problem I'd say hardware for sure. But at least one other person has the same problem after updating to ics. It seems like there something with the firmware interfacing with the touch screen.

Think the other colleague did say he found someone elsewhere who resolved the problem by reverting to an older backup he had, which gives me hope that this is no hw issue
And this was my first time to flash any ROM without a backup first, thought a stock update would be fine !!
Can I use adb for instance to verify if it was a hardware issue,if so then any help is appreciated

It will never fully recovery but if you flash a gb rom then the phone might startup.

I believe you have to skip the BL file, as in do not flash the BL file. Plug all your files but the bl file and flash them. Because of the bootloader being loacked, it seems it will failed because it can't actually flash the file.

Good luck. Report is it works.

The phone is not totally bricked. The correct firmware needs to be re-flashed, as what's been said. You used the wrong one, as well as the wrong Odin. You should be using Odin 3.09.
