Do you have access to a PC? If so, do a factory data reset and wipe of the internal SD and Odin a stock ROM (preferably the software version you are on or newer). After that all your information is gone and it's completely stock.

Use the OD2 one in Android Development. It won't let you use an older firmware than you already have.

Currently the odin stocks we have for 2.3.3 are only for the i9023. I suppose that ur friend has the i9020 if his screen is now black.
good news , dont worry,u can fix it.
it happened to me twice already( intentionally as i was curious of the 9023 built)
all he has to do is enter the download mode and flash the correct rom for it. Note that he wont be seeing anything except a black screen but if he did the steps right, then he should get the download mode without any problem and then when u plug the usb and u see the small yellow rectangle....com... , you know you are good to go!
Find Solution !!!
it happened to me (I have a I9020)
Just boot back into download mode
and then flash the phone again with Odin
Flash via Odin only correct CSC image.
You can find it on:

Your odin flashing sequence failed. Repeat the odin flash procedure with that screen up until successful. Make sure you're plugged into at least a usb2.0 port on your computer, and using the original usb cable that came with the phone.
If you're unsure of what baseband you originally had, your best bet is to flash the latest firmware
If you can't get the latest tar to install using odin, try to run cf autoroot through odin. It has been known to fix that error,
The OP should really come back online and let us know of he has been able to fix the problem.

He probably got it fixed or he would still be asking for help. But yeah would be nice to come back and say it's fixed and what he did to fix it

There is no direct firmware to flash. You have to Odin the NB1 tar first, then flash the NC1 update. There is more information in Post 5 here... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=51130818
Keep in mind, I do not have a sim unlocked phone, so I have no idea what effect, if any, Odin back to ATT stock will have on that aspect.

Nice link.
Did you look at the link I sent you? It has a link to the files you need. UCUFNC1 was only a small 20MB update. Probably why it's not showing up on your link.

[Q] Noob just softbricked a fresh S4

Since Sprint decided to pull the plug on WiMAX, I had to get rid of my trusty Evo 4G for a S4. Rooted with Odin, but followed an ancient guide on youtube to get tether unlocked without reading the comments. Now I'm stuck at a yellow "Sprint Spark" screen. Tried a hard reset (a few times), no change.
I think I need to flash a stock rom, but I have no clue which one I should use (and am fearing breaking more stuff). At this point, I just want to get the phone usable .. probably as stock as possible for now. The phone is brand new, assuming 4.4.2? Not sure if there's a way to check exactly what it was running. Recovery says KOT49H.L720VPUFNAE
Any advice, is much appreciated

Maybe, but 250 pages is a lot to sort through (no offense). Does a stock rom (no root) even exist?

[Q] Help Obtaining Sprint SGS4 Stock Rom

Please xda brethren, I need some help. My niece purchased a sgs4, which was rooted for like $150. She was in need of a phone. Anyway, the damn thing has been permanently frozen after a week of use. So i figured maybe flashing it back to stock rom. I found the links to download the stock rom, but its taking forever to get it down. I've been at this since 9:30 THIS MORNING and it hasn't downloaded fully yet. the download keeps stopping. I have to be back at work in 6 1/2 hours and i haven't even slept yet. Can someone please out of the kindness of your heart provide me with the latest stock rom for the sgs4. I'm dying over here for sleep. :crying::crying::crying::crying:

No need to look for an old file like this. He's the latest stock to run through Odin, it should get get all fixed up and unrooted.
