OK. I did a factory reset and installed DrKetan, but now the phone is stuck at the 'SAMSUNG' logo.

update: I installed version 10 of DrKetan and that worked, but now after I install DN3_v5.2_VZW It gets stuck at the SAMSUNG logo.

the MD5 is correct so it's not a problem of a bad download.

Please help.

thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] iiNFAMOUS CHRiS:
did you wipe everything but internal storage before flashing DN3, and then do just a factory reset after installing it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] thecensor:
I re did everything, including what you just said, but still is stuck on the N7100 screen

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] airslant:
Is the correct way to get from DN3 to another ROM to wipe everything but internal storage? I'm afraid to mess something up and be back where I was originally where I couldn't even get to recovery. I have to try it though. My battery life is about 6 hours max right now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] thecensor:
I think battery life will improve after a few charging cycles.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] airslant:
I've been running D3 for weeks. It doesn't last from when I leave work at 5 fully charged to when I go to bed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] thecensor:
Do you think it's because of the D3 ROM or because of this hack? In other words what is the battery life on the D3 if we hadn't done the bootloader thing?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] airslant:
I suspect the hack. However, I don't think I can test the bootloader issue but I can test the Rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] iiNFAMOUS CHRiS:
I can't seem to get any other ROMs to fully work. The closest I got was the Jedi ROM, but for the life of me I couldn't get it to connect to mobile data. I believe it's the ROM that's causing the battery drain, it's a frequently reported issue with DN3, and the ROM isn't supported any more. But I can't seem to get any other ROM to work, so i'm also stuck with HORRIBLE battery life.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] iiNFAMOUS CHRiS:
I still cannot figure out the issue of why the Jedi X20 ROM refuses to have data, even with the correct APN settings. The ROM has much better battery life, more stable and faster than the DN3 ROM is...but that one issue is the killer.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] thecensor:
I agree it's the Verizon DN3. I re-installed the stock N7100 Rom and the battery life is great. Haven't re-installed the Verizon DN3 yet.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] iiNFAMOUS CHRiS:
Are you getting working cell service and data with the stock N7100 ROM? Might have to try that. I hate not having cell data.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] airslant:
With this running almost perfect on DN3, why can't we just flash the i605 bootloader again?...i have these ideas but am scared to do them and up at a ''hard brick''.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] thecensor:
I'm using it on WiFi. Definitively not getting Verizon service. haven't' tried a GSM sim card yet.

EDIT: not working with GSM SIM card either. I inserted one ,but it doesn't recognize it.

I may try it since I'm probaby gonna send it that Texas company anyway.

post exactly what you think I should do.

I think i won't be able to install the i605 PIT file.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] iiNFAMOUS CHRiS:
The only thing that this method does is take advantage of the fact that the i605 and N7100 are very similar devices. It just so happened that SOMETHING within the DN3 ROM, as well as JediX20(partially, minus cell data) allows the i605 ROM to work.

If you flashed the DN3 ROM and a i605 radio on a N7100 it would probably do the same thing. The bootloader is locked from any sort of upgrade.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] iiNFAMOUS CHRiS:
I have ditched my Note 2 in favor of a Galaxy S4, so I will no longer be researching the problems with this method of unbricking. My apologies, I hope what I discovered so far will help people, and I will still be monitoring this thread and answering any questions that may be asked.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] thecensor:
Sure thing and thanks, but is the S4 really that much better than the N2?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Piombo71:
Hello, sorry I did not understand, the pit file and the rom I have to make them leave together with Odin?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] iiNFAMOUS CHRiS:
Well, my Note 2 had a broken screen. The guy I got it from was supposed to bring me the replacement but kept avoiding me. The performance and battery life wasn't that good after I flashed the DN3 ROM, I couldn't even get a fully day of light/moderate usage. The S4 camera is better, battery life is better and there's more XDA support for the S4. The only downfalls are the screen size(which I don't mind, fits in my pocket easier), and lack of an spen. Overall, I like the S4 more than the Note 2.

Download the PIT file, open it in the "PDA" section of Odin. Click start. Then open up the stock ROM in Odin, click start.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] thecensor:
Ok, enjoy it :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Piombo71:
Hello, sorry but I put the pit file in PDA and click start where you told me but Odin 3.07 mi from this error "runtime error!" Program: C:\Odin 307\Odin 307\Odin3 v3.07.exe

This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in unusual way

Please contact the application's support team for more information can you tell me why? Another thing you could put a screenshot as an example to make a procedure without encountering any errors !!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] iiNFAMOUS CHRiS:
Make sure you have Microsoft .NET Framework installed:

http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30653
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Piombo71:
Yes, I have the microsoft net.framework 4.5 installed because I use Windows 7 Ultimate 32bit, I have to maybe try with Odin 3.09?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] iiNFAMOUS CHRiS:
Yes, keep trying different versions to flash the PIT. ODIN is a very picky app, it works when it wants to in my experiences.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] airslant:
3.07 is what worked for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Piombo71:
Hello, So I tried with Odin 3.10 and I just fail to process the part, with Odin 3.09 closes the program just part of the process, with Odin 3.04 mi to fail at the end of the process, with Odin 1.85 I just fail to part with Odin 1.83 does not see the file in PDA, would you be so kind as to give me the Odin that you've used?

Attached it to this post. Your phone is in Download Mode, correct?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Piombo71:

I have DrKetan installed and running, but now Odin gets stuck when I try to install the EFS.

Please help.

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Piombo71:
Hello, So I tried them all, can you kindly explain step by step how to do it, because if I put the 3.07 with odin pit file in PDA gives me runtime error and crashes the program, if you unzip the file and put it in the pit PIT, odin part, however, hangs on GET PIT FOR MAPPING and does not go ahead or should I wait what?

I'm stuck here, please help me and you are desperate !!!

Ps: I have both Microsoft Framework installed on your pc 4.51 that java 8.0 and java jdk8.0!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] iiNFAMOUS CHRiS:
Try the PIT file in a different version of Odin, I had that same issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Piombo71:
Hello, then I could start Odin with the pit file in PDA, but now hangs written to NAND Write Start and does not go further and the cell in download mode and the blue bar at the end, at this point what should the cell , reboot or what? It takes a long time or is stuck there, another thing I wanted to ask is whether this method also works on 4.4.2 or FND7 only with the 4.3 and lower, because I have brick with this, thank you for any answers!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Piombo71:
Hello, excuse me can you explain how you did it with Odin 3.07? Because I just put the file in PDA Pit and I click start I get runtime error, tried with all versions of Odin, same result, I can not flash the file Pit, me FAIL, else why the file is .tar.gz and weighs 937 bytes and after the error turns into .tar and weighs 4.50 Kbytes • The file of the thread is damaged by accident? Could you give me the files you have used, since you did?

Thanks so much

Unbrickable so far.

Bricked my Note 2 (Verizon) a couple of days ago. Searched Youtube, here, and many other sites to figure out ways to unlock it from Verizon. Needless to say, no luck, and a Samsung paperweight. I have downloaded multiple versions of Odin (3.04, 3.07, and 3.10.7) but the 3.07 is the only one I see that has PDA mode. At this point I have tried everything but nothing works. Tried 3-4 random un-bricking methods from YT but none are of any help being that they use phones that are not bricked in the first place. I have downloaded endless amounts of firmware (I605VRUAND3's, I605VRAMC3's (or something like that), I605VRUFND7's, cm-13.0-20160524-NIGHTLY-i605-recovery, SAM_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_v1.5.55.0, and a zubair ikram folder that contains (GT-I9100 CWM-Recovery, OMAPFlash_1229_2ndlastt). So far I can only get to the Odin screen (Power, Vol. Down, Home). Any help? :mad:

It is rooted using a method i found on XDA, but I do not remember the exact method details.

I received the OTA offer about a month ago and all attempts to get it to install have failed.

What I have tried:

*1. Full phone reset then OTA attempt

*2. Wipes cache then OTA attempt

I searched all over for manual updates but a lot of the sites seem sketchy. *If the seem ok, the download links don't work.

Should I unroot next?

Hello, this is my first post here and ofcourse I have a problem...

So yesterday I was rooting my Xperia Z, unlocked the debug mode and was able to access the recovery mode a few times. So I flashed my device to 4.2 version with a computer then I copied the 4.2.2 .tft file and the Kernel into my phones internal memory, turned my phone off, turned it on again, turned on the recovery mode, did the "Wipe data/Factory reset", wiped the catche partition, wiped the Dalvik cache, formated the system, formated the data and the cache. So then I went to install the prerooted ROM but my phoned seemed not to find it in the internam memory so I selected to reboot my device and since then it is acting all weird...

So the phone then tried to reboot but freezed at the Sony logo, the battery was about 89% and the phone started heating like it was working on its max, the phones battery died after about 2 or 3 hours, so ofcourse I tried connecting it to my PC to try to charge it but it just started to boot loop, I could hear the computer making a notification sound that the device is connected and after a few seconts it just disconnects. It seems that the phone isnt charging at all because after leaving the phone to charge for the whole night with a regular charger the phones LED was still red and was giving me 3 blinks when I tried to turn the device on. I think that if I could to access the recovery mode again I would be able to fix everything from there on my own...

Any help to fix this problem is welcome, I can provide more information about the problem if there are some questions

P.S. I already tried to remove the microSIM and microSD cards

So I though to hell with this version and wiped everything again, installed the 4.4 version with flashtool but then the bootlooping started again, it went no further than the Sony logo, after about 2 hours of trying to get the damn thing on I took my fathers Galaxy S4 charger and pluged it into my phone, for my surprise the phone started charging and was displaying that battery icon in the middle of the screen, so now its about at 30% battery and trying to turn it on wont work, almost gets to the main screen and then instantly turns off. Ill try to charge it to about 80% battery and then try to turn it on. I suspect that the device thinks its battery is empty when it is actually at about 60%
