2. Call in the warranty
If you've managed step one already, proceed to step two without making a thread.

someone actually thanked the OP. thats the best part.
OK, so I have a brick. I don't understand - am I supposed to hit the guy at AT&T with it until he gives me a new phone? I don't think my brick has a warranty, so if that breaks I am really screwed.

Rofl, you know you really ****ed up if you got to step 2.5 in a 2 step process lol
At that point, it's time to never come back to XDA again.
But really though, carriers don't have software engineers debugging your phone, they just send the phone back to samsung if it's in warranty and if it isn't in warranty, they charge you for repair (a hardware tech or computer engineer does it). Also, if your paying for the repair, it doesn't even matter what you've done to the phone.

So I asked a question in q&a (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1262729) about a way to get back to kb2 since my replacement came preloaded with it and if I ever had to send it back I wanted it to go back with the stock rom. After failing to find one I found a way to back the stock rom into a odin package.
According to the instructions there shouldn't be any bootloaders that could hard brick a phone. I would try this myself but if in the process I get soft bricked then I don't think I have a way to get back to kb2 stock. Therefore if anyone has already flashed a rom and can tell me if this works i would be greatly appreciated. If anyone know a little dev work and can tell me if I need to change anything that would be great too.
Link for stock rom will be posted as soon as filesonic upload is complete. Thanks for anyone willing.

Looks like you got it figured out. They call that a soft brick. It happened to me.
its called not unlocking your bootloader before flashing custom firmware on your device. my suggestion is to read the guides stickied around here before your soft brick turns into a hard brick!
Are you saying that the Rom runs ok but when you goto recovery you get the triangle? i was reading something about how the stock recovery can be re flashed by accident in some situation, try odin recovery again?

Nope. What he did is exactly what droidstyle said. He didn't unlock his bootloader which is the first step you should take after rooting your phone if you are going to be playing with any ROMs.

I think he had to have his bootloader unlocked to flash the Rom in the first place. My guess would be that he relocked it at some point.

If CM10 is anything like Synergy it does a check for the bootloader being unlocked and if it is locked still it skips installing the kernel. The rest of it goes along fine.

You need to pull your head in mate. You don't know what you're talking about. Arrow44 is trying to help.

It looks like you are the one being much too eager to jump down someone's throat. All Arrow44 did was inform the OP that he posted incorrectly (and also asked him to describe his problem further, so he could try to help). Its pretty clear the OP thought he was typing in the "Message" area, when in fact he was typing in the title instead.
Nothing Arrow44 typed was even close to a flame or attack.
Arrow44 is completely correct in that we need MUCH more information, if we are to have any hope of helping the OP. For instance:
1) update by RUU or OTA?
2) What firmware version are you trying to update to?
3) Is the phone modded? Is it rooted? Bootloader unlocked? Custom recovery?
4) Any error messages?
5) What state is the phone in? Does it still boot into Android, or is it stuck on the boot screen?
Moved to Q&A.
Let's all just calm down, it's much too beautiful a day for arguing.
@ OP, can you describe your issue a bit better? (see redpoint's questions)
I'm also having the same problem on my htc one xl.
it's currently on 4.0.3
