[Q] Galaxy note 2 I317 Bricked after unroot

I have the AT&T Galaxy note 2 SGH-I317.
At boot the screen sits on the galaxy note 2 logo. I can get to download mode but can not get to recovery mode.
I had just updated to 4.3 and rooted (mistake) and I needed to unroot. I have tried to flash the stock rom but it just keeps doing the same thing. Also the stock was 4.1.2.
I already tried using TWRP via Odin but that did not do anything.
EDIT:
I did some research and found out that knox which comes with 4.3 does not allow downgrade which is what I was doing. So I now think that all I need is a 4.3 stock rom. any links?

SCH-R530u issue

Hi.
Well I have a U.S. Cellular SCH-R530 I received from a friend. He already upgraded to 4.3 OTA and I figured I would try to root the phone so I could install custom roms. I downloaded Odin and downloaded cwm 6.0.4.5. I put the phone in download mode and tried flashing cwm.. Well Odin failed, I cannot boot back into the Android OS and I have the screen with the message: "firmware upgrade encountered an issue, etc.". I pulled the battery and put the phone in download mode and I have try flashing cwm again, flashing USCC stock rom and I still get a fail in Odin 3.07 & 3.09. I did use PDA or AP in Odin when I tried to flash both the cwm and the stock 4.3 rom. At this point, I'm trying to figure out how to get the s3 working again.
Nevermind fixed my issue. Please delete thread.
