[Completed] [Q] Need help! downgrading kitkat to JB - XDA Assist

Pardon my stupidity.. I updated my Galaxy Note 2 LTE N7105 to Kitkat 4.4.2. And i didnt like it. Kitkat not allowing you to write/delete to your SD card for one. So i wanted to go back to JB 4.3. Being such a stupid noob i thought i could just flash a Stock ROM JB 4.3 using ODIN. and thats what i did without doing any research regarding its repercussions. it went successfully but the phone just kept on flashing the SAMSUNG logo. guess i just bricked my phone.. what should i do???

[Completed] [Q] Galaxy S4 19505 Internation Version Stock ROM required. Help!

Dear All,
I am a newbie to this site and a bit to Android. I've rooted by Samsung Galaxy S4 19505 (International Version) using Towel Root and installed clockwork recovery and used a custom ROM 'Cyanogenmod' for a while. Cyanogenmod 10.2 crashes a lot and therefore I decided to go back to stock rom. There was some md5 checksum mismatch when I tried to come back to my stock rom and therefore I could not do it. I found links to download official ROMs for variants of different countries but couldn't find one for the 'International Version'. I am looking for the stock ROM of S4-19505 International Version. Please help me to find the stock ROM for my phone. Thanks in advance.
