Press the power button once , a screen will pop up . Just tap airplane mode to disable .
If that doesn't work , try putting the phone back in download mode and running Odin again . I know this works because I've done it 4 times in 2 days .

It does, or you would not go from EE14 back to ED13Hey Optimus , should Odin atleast not restore the baseband and hardware ?
But if his cdma information is missing or corrupted it may be blocking the restore?
I am not sure if it is possible or not.
Can you list everything you have did to the phone.
Why did you Odin in the first place?
Did you have a custom rom on it?
Did you take the EE14 update
Did you do the EE14 manual update with the zip file.
Did you run the KMS root script after you were updated to EE14
When you Odin as soon as it says reset the phone should reboot and the process is done.
If Odin is not fixing you, you may have a hardware issue, there may also be security feutures on the CPU that can trigger hardware being disabled.
The EE14 update was designed to block root access, it seems quite a few people who were rooted and got the EE14 update start having problems with updatinmg PRL and Profile, which Odin does not fix.
Odin does not reflash all the partitions of the device, and I dont think that it can, for example the stl5 cdma partition can be read, but not written to at this point in time.
You may have somehow corrupted one of the partitions Odin does not handle, most likely stl5.
If I were you, I would Odin to Stock ED13, wipe cache, and factory reset, connect phone to a WiFi network, and take the EE14 update, then do a ##786# factory reset.
If that does not work, have Boost or Samsung replace it. at least with the Stock ED13 updated too EE14 it does not look to ovious that you rooted it

I Odin because my phone was rebooting on its own and i had to resign into google everytime it did.
I had Shabbymod 0.9
Yes I had ee14 and i did it manually
I was rooted before I updated to ee14.=
I was able to to root my phone but I must use wifi to connect to the market. My signal has an x on it, when I try to shabbymod it reboots to a black screen, i'm attempting to do a system update now. before I odin I attempted to back up cdma.rif.... I didnt delete any files. I used the Terminal Emulator. I just updated to EE14 but when I retry odin Im back at square 1. Im gonna try your trick now.
Why are you using Odin
Did you try a different USB port
Do you have a different computer to try from
Do you have another USB cable
Did you try unplugging the battery and and usb cable from phone and leaving them out for a 60 seconds

When you did a factory wipe you did not go back in and enable debugging did you?
Try that see if you can connect again.

People wiping their phones before checking to see if everything flashes correctly is becoming a huge problem.. it turns off debugging so you cant communicate with the device..please check before you wipe...
did you read this whole thread?
are you sure you are in download mode, how do you know?
have you tried a different usb port?
a different usb cable?
a different computer?
