Take out battery. Wait 10 secs , put it back and try switch on phone again
If still cannot boot, go to recovery mode and select clear data/factory reset
Where did you download your KJ4 rom ? Need the link to check whether you have got the right one

That is chainfire KJ4 kernel NOT KJ4 rom
I think Your kernel is now screwed up as you have earlier fail to flash the XXKI kernel and you now tried to flash Chainfire kernel
Now you have no choice but to flash KKJ4 rom - download it from here :

http://www.sammobile.com/showthread.php?t=27

Download the one with CSC : OXAKJ4 - it is a 558 MB file. After download extract the zip file and select the tar file as PDA in Odin

After you have successfully flash back the rom, than install Chainfire kernel to have root/CWM. Than use Chainfire CWM to flash the HK rom file
You can checkup my blog on this :

The seller Digi dealer should register for you on the spot. So go back and bang tables at his supervisor/manager if the seller did not do it for you. You will get back the response from Samsung almost immediately on your mobilephone

Hi Benny,

If you use spareparts I notice the data symbol will only show G, no more E, 3G, H or H+. Also notice the screen not so vibrant anymore... maybe it's my eyes... anyone can confirm this?

Which largest folder to modify? Is it 600X1024? CHD, IND and MY folders only have 4 folders with the larget being 480X854...

thanks.

BTW, if you are thinking to upgrade or not... IMHO, you should do it.. this is the most awesome phone... it's not as huge as I expected it to be... it's really carry-able and definitely can be used as a phone :)480

Only one thing to gripe... the call quality is not top-notch, but acceptable.. you just have to make sure u place the speaker correctly to ur ear so the sound can be clearer to you.... alternatively just use bluetooth ear-piece...
*
just rename the 600x1024 and all the 480x854 folders

hope this will repair damaged kernel

have you tested yours?  Your Note can draw at the left and bottom edges in full?  Just tested mine, exactly the same as manglersji. 

But i think you will only get this limitation in the S Pen test.  In S Memo and Photo Editor that i try to test this situation, there is actually some frame surrounding the area that you can draw.  So you actually cannot reach the edges and notice this "defect" during normal usage in applications.
*
just don't get too paranoid over the accuracy of the spen. it is not meant for fine detailed work. know what is it to be used for and one will not be dissapointed with some of its weakness

Rename the largest folder at internal sdcard: mnt/navisea/organic to 800X1280 and all the other subfolder the largest folder too to 800X1280 ( CHT, EN, IND, MY etc )
Use any file explorer to make the amendment or you connect your phomne to PC and amend it thro your PC

This is just tweaking to make it work on a big display. But I know there are some cracked THAILAND versions around in the web where the menu can be at bottom. Never bother to test it as I never like to install cracked apps on my phone

This is taken from my SGS II official thread which is applicable to the Galaxy NOTE. ALWAYS have your phone IMEI backup just in case ir t goes missing during flashing. It will save you a trip going to service center

How do I backup my phone IMEI in case it gets missing during flash process ?

Check to see if your IMEI number is still intact by dialling *#06#
efs doesn't get backed up or restored by nandroid

Why the /efs folder?
This is a very sensitive system folder that contains Phone-specific information such as the IMEI (encrypted in the nv_data.bin), wireless devices MAC addresses, product code (also in the nv_data.bin), and much more. Often users trying to change product codes or trying to unlock the mobile will end up corrupting data in this location.

Why back it up?
Well, let’s resume it saying that backing-up this little folder will keep you away from Samsung service centres.

Easiest : Use HellCatDroid tool - just download and install kTool.apk file. Launch the app and select your choice : http://f.lui.li/get_99_f13d.html

OR you can use Through TERMINAL commands
What you will need:
Rooted SGS NOTE to get permissions as a SU (Super User) and perform the backup
Terminal Emulator by Jack Palevich (available from the market) <-Terminal Emulator or use ADB which is included in the SDK Development Tools

The standard prompt of terminal (adb) is a $ sign. Once you enter “SU” it will become a # Sign.

***NOTE: Make sure to keep an eye on the screen of your SGS II during this process, because it may request SU permissions [currently doesn't on CF-root]; else, you will get an error (just if it’s the first time). In Terminal Emulator you will need to reset the app after granting permissions cause it usually freezes***

*Remember: to use ADB you need to enable USB DEBUGGING under Applications/Development in your SGS II.

su
mkdir /sdcard/efs
busybox tar zcvf /sdcard/efs/efs-backup.tar.gz /efs
cat /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 > /sdcard/efs/efs_dev-block-mmcblk0p1.img

Close terminal emulator, then transfer to your pc.

RESTORING : Restoring efs backup (It helped when the phone is not working and imei is blank):
put your efs-backup.tar.gz in sdcard then in adb shell

su
umount /efs
mke2fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
mount -w -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 /efs
busybox tar zxvf /sdcard/efs-backup.tar.gz -C /

Reference : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1068193

Is this really necessary to do. What happen if I lost my iMEI and i did not do a backup ?

If you lose your IMEI means : your phone cannot detect your sim card at all, you cannot make and receive calls, you cannot have internet access. If you go to Settings/About Phone/Status/IMEI - you will see a blank ou stated UNKNOWN.
You can try to recover it by either flashing a stock official rom ( full set PDA, PHONE, CSC) or try flash just the modem file. If these failed, your only choice is to send to Service Center to rebuild your rom

The chance of losing the IMEI is very low but if you are a frequent flasher of roms, kernels, modem etc it might happen; these I called accidents. So better backup. Using the app I proposed just takes 1 SECOND. Restoring it another 1 second. Better be safe , preventive than sorry later. Since it is so easy, just do it. Accidents can happen without you knowing and no approval is needed from you to happen. When it happen, don't ask "WHY ME ?"
If you are flashing those HP, Motorola, CSL phones the chance losing your IMEI is very, very high

The XDA forum of Galaxy NOTE has another method - more tedious , need to do it through your PC:
