[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] salata1500:
I am so sorry if i sounded rude. Never meant to my english isnt too good. I am ver happy that someone is trying to help me. Sorry if you understanded me the wrong way.

We are not specific and are not spoon feeding you because this not done that way. You HAVE to spend time and learn what is what. The answers you need and the help you need are already here. If you're expecting download links and screenshots you shouldn't be modifying your phone. The whole point of this community is to learn and share the knowledge - not spoon feed.

Go to the TWRP thread, read up and download the tar that you need to flash through odin. Look for the MJ5 bootloader (hint: look up Wanam's ROM thread, that's one of the many places). After you got these two, boot to TWRP and flash the ROM.

Finally, as long as your phone gets into download mode, it's not bricked. And you got to do something incredibly foolish to make it not boot into bootloader. That said, it would be prudent to learn and act rather than blindly execute what you read - I said the same thing in not so many words in my reply to you in the DN3 ROM thread.

If you have used ODIN before to flash anything using this computer you are trying with now, you don't need to reinstall the drivers.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] salata1500:
Ok. Thank you very much . There is one problem. I think you guys didnt understand that the computer finds the phone but Odin doesnt i think i must install the drivers for odin to find it. Can someone tell me if ican install the drivers while i am in download mode and how am i supposed to do it ? maybe theres a tutorial somewhere. I am really sorry for not being good with this. But its because i bought the phone already rooted. I know i already took lots of your time but i know how to do everything accept odin doesnt find my phone and thats the biggest problem. Thanks once again
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zulfi:
Hello my dear,

First you need to put your phone in download mode(V Down+Power+Menu) when you see the screen press the V up. Now your phone in download mode.

Now run odin on your PC, connect your phone to the PC, odin automatically recognize your divce, now in odin click pda, select philz recovery.tar and press start tab. after finish the process remove your phone from pc.

Now go for recovery mode(V up+power+Menu)

Enjoy :)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] salata1500:
Thx dude but big problem. I installed the recovery with succes. But still the phone cannot boot into recovery ( i tried philz recovery,twrp). Phone has problem booting in. Its stuck on the samsung note II screen.Do you know what do do now? :D thx
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zulfi:
Just do the same process with MJ5 bootloader.tar
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mikyno:
So you successfully flashed the recovery via odin but you are not able to boot into it?

When u are in samsung note 2 boot screen keep pressed volume up, home and power buttons. When phone reboots and shows u samsung note 2 bootscreen then release the power button but keep pressed the others two until the phone boot in recovery. Try this and tell me what happen.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] salata1500:
Thx . New problem im in recovery i click install zip: i coose sd card it says cant mount sdcard. Neither the phone storage works neither sd card.Pls help
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zulfi:
Which recovery you are using?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] salata1500:
In Philz recovery neither sd card worked neither data of phone. In twrp only sd card works. BTW weird problem. The recovery after flashing it from odin works only once ( after i turn off the device) the recovery doesnt work after....i dont know whats going on
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] salata1500:
What if i use my backup from my sd card ( it is omega v17) jellybean 4.1.2 . Should i try and do that since i updated the bootloader to mj5??
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zulfi:
Use this one philz_touch_5.15.0-n7100.tar
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] salata1500:
Yeah sd card works internal storage doesnt. How is it possible that i destroyed the internal storage??
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mikyno:
If u restore omega 17 backup u will lose ur imei I think. Try to flash philz that zoya4u suggested. Or install twrp and flash dn3 rom using adb

Edit : if sd card works then flash the rom and Let it boot ecc. Now reboot u phone in recovery and see if u are able to do that. If u can enter in recovery then see if now internal storage is working fine. If yes, then problem solved, if no, then format internal storage from recovery and reflash dn3 and reboot the phone.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zulfi:
My dear be patience nothing destroyed just format factory data/reset, format cache, format dalvic etc...
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] salata1500:
Yeah. What im gonna do now is : Ive got philz recovery 5.5 . I got a working sdcard. Ill just download the DN3 rom put it in my sdcard and manually flash it with revovery.Hope that will work. But still why doesnt my internal storage work is it possible that it got destroyed by taking in/out the battery, or by turning on and off download mode? Hmmm. any fix ? thanks you guys anyway.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mikyno:
It is nearly impossible that u destroyed ur internal storage. Maybe file system is corrupted or something else like that. Try to flash dn3 and see how it Goes. Tell us what happen :)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] salata1500:
Ok plese help. I install the rom and it doesnt boot up past galaxy Note II what am isupposed to do? the version i tried to use is the latest one ( v3.1).Should i try flashing a new rom? Or maybe i could flash the rom through Odin? I think it cant turn on cause it cant factory reset ( it cant mount the internal storage).Thx for help
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mikyno:
Did u try to format internal storage from recovery

Edit : if u are not able to format internal storage then to fix the mounting issue read this guide. Should work for our note but i am not sure. Do it at ur own risk. http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=27844248&postcount=6

It says it cant recognize adb but i think my drivers are installed since odin recognizes it?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mikyno:
Use Google to know how to make adb work man..
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ph03n!x:
Wait, your device is a N7100 right? Does it say that in the label under the battery?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] salata1500:
Yes yes it does.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] salata1500:
What do you think ? Maybe i should flash the backup i have from androdi 4.1.2 . Or maybe i should on root and go stock?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ph03n!x:
1. Flash TWRP 2.6.3.1 through ODIN - download the .tar version to do that

2. Boot into TWRP and format boot, system, data and internal SD. Reboot to TWRP using its reboot menu (it will warn about no OS being installed and no SU being installed. Go ahead and reboot)

3. Flash the ROM from the external SD Card - use a freshly formatted FAT32 card with the ROM's zip. While flashing, don't choose to wipe anything in Aroma. Just pick the defaults + Note3 features and addons that you cannot get from Play Store (assuming DN3 ROM)

4. Reboot and give it up to 10 minutes to see if it works

5. If it doesn't, flash the TWRP that you backed up your old ROM with and restore the backup. If it fails to boot, flash the bootloader that corresponds to the build number of your old ROM

Hopefully you'll have a working phone one way or other by following these...
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] salata1500:
Ok. Im doing that now. But there is one problem i cant format the data beaccuse it says failed. It doesnt find internal storage. But i will skip that step and do the rest.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] salata1500:
Yeah i backed up with twrp 2.5 but will have to resotre with twrp 2.6 since i cant find twrp 2.5.00 . Can i restore with 2.6?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] salata1500:
I dont think this will workout. I have the backup But restore doesnt find the file. I guess its beacuse of the recovery being updated.But the file that was 2.5.00 was deleted from the site and i cant download it from nowhere :(. OMG what am i supposed to do now. I have the worstest luck in the world. BTW that flashing rom didnt work either :/
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] salata1500:
Ok. Got the backup on the phone it found it clicked on it. It was working but it cant flash fully because there isnt no internal storage.It flashes till the moment wiping data... Fail. Im not sure but i dont think we will get anywhere withou the internal memory working. I can still try to flash stock rom. But ill need tip to do that to.But before doing that.Do you have any other solutions( ive tried flashing roms like tigra , dn3.My bootloader is flashed through odin and is mj5. Im not sure if the internal memory didnt stop working with the new bootloader? Im not too good with theese stuff and thats why i need your guys help. Im not rich at all and i can only upgrade a phone once a year.So thanks for all the help i appreciate it. I hope the phone will finally work. Damn this is a journey for me i havent had so many stress since ever.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zulfi:
The one and final step only, download official 4.3 from (http://www.samfirmware.com/) and flash it via odin,

Enjoy

Note: Please don't try to root your device if you don't know how to do it.

Thanks
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ph03n!x:
OK internal memory failing is close to impossible in your case because the recovery is working - and that is loaded from internal memory.

In TWRP, Go to Backup and see if Data is listed there and shows a size on it?

And don't flash the latest official 4.3 as suggested in the post above mine. Flash the last 4.1.2 for your region. This is because the official 4.3 will flash the knox-aware bootloader which cannot be downgraded.

OK. Before i flash official 4.1.2 i want to know if i have to change something ( i upgraded the bootloader to mj5, i have twrp 2.6.3.1) . Do i have to do any processes before i flash the official 4.1.2? thanks. I hope this will be my last question :D

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1923956&highlight=omega . Will this be a good toolkit to flash stock rom? Can you give me a easy guide what i should do ? Cause im not sure if i should flash stock rom back at first. Or should i change bootloader flash stock image or other stuff. Sorry but im trieing to be safe now.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ph03n!x:
Go to sammobile, firmware section and pick the last 4.1.2 firmware for your device (N7100). Look for ODIN - 3.09 or at least 3.04. Flash it using the PDA or AP tab. That's it.

The full firmware from sammobile will have modem, bootloader n all the stuff to make it back to factory.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] salata1500:
Thx bro. Will i lose root? What if it doesnt work and i lose my root and my recovery? What if that wont be the solution? Will i be stuck? Bu t anyway theres probably nothing else i can do.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ph03n!x:
Your phone will be in factory state - so yeah, you will lose root.

To reroot, just flash the TWRP's .tar file through ODIN, reboot to recovery (Vol Up+Home+Power), and flash SuperSU (look it up).

And to be honest, the only thing that worries me is the data partition - if you get that to work (I had shared a link of someone having a similar problem and fixing it), you should be fine even without reverting to the stock ROM.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] salata1500:
Ok. And one more question. Are all of theese trusted? Cause my phone is from USA but i live in poland now. So does it make a difference if i flash the rom from POLAND-T-mobile or from Poland-Play. Does it make a difference is one better then another. Thanks and if your able to please answer my earlier question.:D

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ph03n!x:
Flash the ROM for the region the phone was intended for, to be on the safer side. I other words, try n get to factory state. Sammobile ROMs are official Samsung ROMs unless marked as a leak.

And was the Exynos Note 2/ N7100 ever sold in the US, I wonder... Anyway, if you're sure it indeed is a N7100 and not a carrier branded phone or a N7105, you should be fine.

Big problem. I lost my imei and my phine simcard doesnt work
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ph03n!x:
Don't worry. Not a big problem., unless you deleted the backup you had.

Install TWRP, restore the EFS from your backup and reboot. If you want to root, TWRP has an option... or you can now restore to how your phone was before all this started by restoring everything.

On the other hand, if you do not have a backup of your EFS the It is indeed a big problem.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] salata1500:
Luckily i do have a backup. I have efs.ext4.win and one efs.ext.win.md5 which one should i falsh /resltore?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ph03n!x:
You can't restore the file just like that. You have install TWRP, make sure sdcard (int or ext) has the TWRP folder with the backups. Then in TWRP go to restore, make sure the right sdcard (where the backup is located) selected and restore just the efs.

If after rebooting you still have the same problem, so the same process, but this time restore both modem and efs.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] onedirection:
Well, the only way to rescue your phone is re flash the official firmware using Odin. This will surely help ya. I got the same thing with you around 3 months ago, I managed to fix it by flashing the official firmware from sammobile.:good:

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ph03n!x:
You probably should put the EFS files (both of them) along with the other backup files - else TWRP may not see it. And make sure you make a million copies of the EFS and Modem files in that backup - write it to a CD/ DVD, put a copy in your pen drives, your computer, etc.
