I have a Note N7000, It is rooted with Philz Touch 5. I had issues with it last friday where it would restart when trying to start any random app.
Thought it weird, maybe it's the last app to be put on - but no. Went into the phone and cleared the cache in Philz Touch 5. After this the phone would not start again.. much to my disappointment.

I have downloaded Odin3 v1.87 and have downloaded the attachment from this thread. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1354888

i have also purchased a JIG from this Ebay ad. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/141209048811?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649

The JIG doesn't work, ODIN can read my phone when it's plugged in - and has successfully done the PDA & BOOTLOADER tasks.

I hope & feel that I can bring my phone back to life - I would someone to help me to understand what next steps I can take to do this.

Thanks for all your help in advance..:D

EDIT
I just noticed those files are from triangleaway. NOT the stock rom. What you flashed is to remove the big yellow triangle at boot.
Download Stock GB or Jellybean, and flash those with odin. That should fix your phone.

Flash a tar version of Philz kernel like XXLTA or DDLSC. using odin. The power off the device and boot into recovery. This should get you into CWM. Format system, data, cache and preload. Then reboot into download mode and flash this rom again OR you can flash any custom TW or CM rom.

go to this link and in post 3.. there is download for TW kernels. download the latest tar version.
boot the phone to download mode and select the tar kernel in PDA and flash it. Odin will say KERNEL.. If it completes. power off the device and try to boot into recovery.

    Can anything else be done in Odin?

    Bootloader - Dunno what it does?
    Phone ?
    CSC ?

    And what is a PIT file ?

    :eek:
    Click to expand...

    This is based on the fact that you get a blank screen on recovery... issue might be with the bootloader you flashed earlier.. Search for N7000XXLSA_N7000OXALSA_DBT.zip in sammobile.com and download the firmware..(if not found on that site, use Google).
    Unzip it. here will be 3 files
    Open odin.
    Use the CODE_ file in PDA
    MODEM_ in PHONE
    CSC_ in CSC
    Flash again..

    Came back with this..

    May be...
    Lets try a different approach..
    Flash the previously download Philz kernel again. Once you get a success message, power off the device and remove the battery. Now put the battery back and press and hold the three button combo for recovery till you see the GT-N7000 screen. After that wait for 5 seconds.
    Last time you did this, you said the screen vibrates but is blank.. If its the same, then connect the phone to PC.
    If you are aware of adb then go ahead.. Drivers can be found here (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2588979)

    - Open command prompt.
    - type adb devices (output should be the device ID and recovery)
    - adb shell (output should be #)
    - now type umount /system (enter)
    umount data (enter)
    umount cache (enter)
    then
    - type e2fsck -f -c -y /dev/block/mmcblk0p9 (enter and let it do its thing)
    e2fsck -f -c -y /dev/block/mmcblk0p10 (enter and let it do its thing)
    e2fsck -f -c -y /dev/block/mmcblk0p7 (enter and let it do its thing)
    -type reboot download
    - kill adb from task manager
    - open odin and flash the XXLSA rom again.

    After the adb sideload command... There will a % transfer... After it reaches 100.. Wait for about 15 seconds before giving the reboot recovery command.

    I already have this zip file on my sd card (PhilZ-cwm6-XXLT9-ORA-5.08.5-signed).. do I delete it off the card and then put on sweet rom and install that?
    Click to expand...
    Click to collapse

    no need to delete that. just put on sweet rom. From Philz recovery you can choose which zip to flash. But before flash should go in to wipe/factory reset menu, then choose "clean to install rom". this is to make sure partitions are clean to avoid bootloop.
