[Q] Note rebooting and rebooting again... How to fix?

Hi everybody,
It seems that the root procedure I used went wrong!
My Note was perfectly working but I miss some "root" applications, that I was used to on my SGS2...
So I used this tutorial to root my phone:
http://androidadvices.com/root-samsung-galaxy-note-n7000-tutorial/2/
Once the procedure complete, the phone was booting, boot animation, White samsung glowing on black screen and finally rebooting!
I don't know what went wrong... I try to reflash the stock firmware KJ4, without pit, and it removes the yellow triangle, but the phone is still stucked at bootscreen, and rebooting and rebooting again!
Please help me? What can I do? Is it really good for trash? Whould be my first...

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Try flashing from Odin with the pit file.
I tried that, seems not to work at first glance...
Then I return in diagnostic mode and do factory reset and wipe and finally...
IT BOOTED!
Great!
Many thanks!

Semi bricked?

Last night after a good night of working with my tablet out on the job I came home and noticed it was running a little sluggish so I rebooted it. It then proceeded to hang on the bootloader screen. I tried flashing into recovery and wiping and reinstalling but it still stays hung up on the bootloader screen. Getting into the recovery boot loader it says the secondary kerlel akb has an issue or something. Is there a way to Odin this thing back to stock? It's not totally bricked I can still get into recovery just can't get it to boot into the second kernel or whatever it means. I can get the exact terminology if someone needs it but I have been bricked worse than this before its just weird it won't fix itself after I re install a new ROM.

I am on the Skillraz V8 boot loader to be exact, and thats the first screen it gets stuck on..
I just tried flashing a stock un rooted ics zip but it still hangs on the first screen after rebooting after the install, which seemed to take ok... and it doesnt change my recovery or anything back to stock.

[Q] I somehow lost my recovery?

So I was running CWM (Philz) I believe, and I had been running into issues while on rooted 4.2.2 D800 stock ROM. There were force closes and random reboots, etc. I've only installed xposed mods. I've also used android tuner to adjust some of the build.prop and kernel presets.
However, after my phone got stuck in what I thought was a boot loop, I finally got it up and running. What happened next was odd. I tried booting into recovery -> the "LG" splash screen showed up and it went into another infinite boot loop.
I'm assuming I somehow corrupted or lost my recovery. Any advice on what to do? I don't know if I should follow the original instructions for flashing a recovery here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2633150.
Edit: Jesus christ my phone infuriates and confuses the hell out of me. After attempting to enter the recovery again, I am now stuck in a permanent boot loop. The last time I fixed it was by turning my phone off....and then *WAITING*.
What? That doesn't make sense you say? Of course it doesn't. But that's still what worked. I waited 12 hours, and then tried turning it on again. When I did, oh look, the AT&T screen!
CONFUSING. help please...
Double edit (Hard Mode): Going into download mode when I'm in this constant bootloop = nothing happens. That little icon that says "Download Mode" with the 5 blue circles just stays there, and my laptop ends up not recognizing anything. This happened the last time too, and all I was able to see on my laptop was "QHSUSB_BULK". I thought this meant that I would have to do a complete wiping process through Linux (found on another thread somewhere), but apparently waiting 12 hours also fixed the problem.

Restart Problem

Hi guys,
Few days ago I tried to reflash the stock rom (8.0 & 9.0) but the phone got into bootloop.
Since then I tried everything and nothing helped it was booting upto the point that there's Android One logo and as I said it would bootloop, I don't know how but yestetday I managed somehow to get the phone to boot up but while I'm in setup the phone restarts over over, sometimes it's restsrting when I'm entering my name and sometimes in any other section (depends on the speed that I'm doing the setup...
Any ideas how to fix this issue ?
