Default Bricked my phone?

Ive been rooted for the past 3 days with zero issues and no bloatware installed. Everything was great until today. I left for work and then I got zero data. Checked in my settings and it didnt even have my number in there or anything, just showed zero about a network or anything. Took it back to t-mobile today and they tried to hard reboot it and now I cant even get to the main screen. Tried a stock rom to recover it to factory and nothing. When I turn it on it just shows samsung now. Is there a way to go back to stock with odin or anything I can do?

Edit....it is totally stock so you will be good then for root just use melvins root process it works u might have to flash root 2 or 3 times while in recovery . But it works

Heres the root and cwm (recovery) thread like i said do this after your rom is odined on device. Flash cwm then go into cwm make backup let it finish then attempt root. (i said backup cuz u always should do this) also when looking for a file in odin hit pda then search for your tar. U downloaded select it and start odin!

Ok I finally got back to stock setup but I still have zero data and when I go into the status menu its unknown network, no signal, no mobile, and it says out of service. I did get a new sim card from t-mobile earlier today but both do the same thing. Phone defect or a problem caused by rooting?

That is the root I had on my phone all week before my phone became "out of service state". All I did was delete bloatware I would never use or want and it worked fine for 3 days, zero issues.
