I did all the steps to the galaxy verizon note 2 easy root. When i took the battery out and then put it back in, I then rebooted my phone. Now when it turns on it stays Samsung start up screen and flickers to the Verizon 4g lte screen. These two screens continue too rotate and nothing happens after that. Could someone please help me out.

Did you do a regular reboot, or did you hold home, volume up, and power so that you could reboot through ASR (Android Stock Recover)? Try doing that, and make sure to wipe your cache before you hit reboot (use the volume keys to navigate, power to select while in the menu).

If that still doesn't work, flash the ROM again, do the battery pull, go into ASR, do a factory reset (you can try without doing this step, if you don't want to start over from scratch, but it might not work at this point), wipe cache, finally reboot through ASR.

Anyone know how i can fix it. Or can i take it to a Verizon store to get it fixed? Or will Verizon know that it has been compromised. I also got a squartrade warranty for this phone, but will they also know that it was rooted or trying to get rooted? I really dont want to go through squaretrade because I dont want to get back a refurbished phone. Any one got any suggestions. All my phone does is rotate between the samsung screen and the Verizon Lte screen. I have tried reboot but the problem still occurs. I have tried deleting cache and the problem still occurs. Do you also think my problem is fixable?

I think it was rooted. But than I read a thread, the info in the thread suggested I was not rooted if I read it right. But anyways I did the steps on the easy root again and when I tried to turn it on either with just the power button and also the other method to reboot, it keeps on toggling back and forth to the samsung start up screen and verizon 4g lte screen. I have also tried erasing the cache and the same problem still occurs.
