My phone doesn't even go into download mode. It just says reboot wipe retire back up and advanced no download mode. Even in the video you sent it shows using triangle away?

That's recovery mode. Download mode is volume down + home and power.
You can use triangle away to reset the flash counter, but it's not necessary. You'll still be in rooted by flashing the stock firmware

You don't have to, it's only if you need to send it back for an insurance claim. Flashing the stock ROM will fully remove root

That is fine. Odin takes a few minutes to work.

Well I left it plugged in for a while and got nothing. I looked at other forums it says Odin doesn't recognize it and neither does my PC because I need to DL a USB driver. Anyone know a good site to get a link from?

Samsung's own website.

This might sound dumb, but have you tried using another USB port or using a different USB cable?

Just out of curiosity, why don't you want CM? Would you be OK with a TW ROM?

Install Samsung Kies 3.0, the USB drivers are installed at the same time and reboot your computer. Disconnect the phone and lauch Kies, you need the Model and serial number, they are hidden under the battery so write them down before starting. select the Menu Tools -> Firmware upgrade and initialization and follow the instructions, i have restored my GNote2 with this tool when i have bought the GNote3. The process take some time, almost half an hour in my case.
