Hello, I have a Sprint Note 2 (SPH-l900). Recently, Sprint has been rolling out the 4.3 update for my version of the Galaxy Note 2. Impatient with their release schedule, I did some google search and discovered that a user on the XDA forum has leaked the firmware update
Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II 4.3 OTA Update - xda-developers
I downloaded the file but the version of ODIN I was using (3.09) was new and I may have used the third option (PHONE) and choose the sboot.bin file from from the 4.3 zip file I got off the XDA forum. Now my Note 2 is stuck on boot. I tried using an older version of ODIN (3.07) because I thought 3.09 was a bit confusing to use. I downloaded the stock firmware for the SPH-L900 from SamMobile, put the phone into recovery by turning it off and booting it up by holding power, home button, and volume up at the same time. I used the PDA option to load the stock firmware and all went well until I got to the sboot.bin and I get this error message:

And I get this error message on my Note 2

At this point, my phone is brick. If I boot up again, it'll tell me that "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again."
Kies is all but useless since it doesn't recognize my phone. I can get out of this screen by loading the sboot.bin file or the CF-Auto-root-t0ltespr-t0ltespr-sphl900.tar.md5 file but I'll still be stuck on boot screen. Anybody got any idea for me to dig myself out of this predicament?
