SW REV. CHECK FAIL : fused:2, Binary: 1 is when you try to downgrade aboot.mbn (bootloader) or try to flash incorrect system/csc etc..
If you get this message , just reboot in Download mode and flash correct package..

I am getting the same error when I try to flash back to the stock ROM and unroot my Verizon Note 3. I made the mistake of accepting the OTA update on my rooted device, did not have custom ROM or anything. The installation seemed to go okay but apparently wiped out the root. Everything was working fine but my root apps so I thought the device was essentially stock. I tried the Dela Vega Root method and it failed several attempts. So I tried flashing a stock ROM in Odin and I get the message you got. I tried downloading the stock ROM on two different occasions in case it was corrupted but still not working. Is my device bricked or is there something I can do? Any help would be appreciated.
Got my phone unbricked by following the directions in this thread. Installed pit file and my phone rebooted! Thank G-d! Was able to root with Kingo. De la vega root does not work with the firmware upgrade.

You cannot go back or restore an old ROM, you have upgraded to 4.4.2 with NA6 Bootloader, so you can ONLY Run NA6 Bootloader which means you are stuck on KitKat now..
Reflash Kitkat 4.4.2 Stock and you're good to go :good:

THanksfor the replay but the tjing is when i was installing kitkat Odin came up with an error and it failed so the upgrade didn't go through. So does it mean I'm stuck with kitkat. The thing is I tried 2 other kitkat and none of them worked. So when I tried to go back to my old ROM Odin always coming up. with errors. "FAIL (Auth)"
What does that mean..... :crying:

Yeah you'll have upgraded cause it'll have installed the Bootloader then tried the ROM before the failure. -
What model/region are you using ? Is it a HK note?

Follow exactly these steps (I've fixed the second link.). Update progress.
METHOD
In Odin mode
1. Flash the latest cf-autoroot (Kitkat support) [http://download.chainfire.eu/352/CF-...x-smn9005.zip]
2. Flash the Chenglu's latest CWM - 6.0.4.6 (the one that supports KitKat) http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2454079
Download Sweet Rom and place it in ExtSDcard (http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2487425)
I tried external sd-card with various format and could not install the ROM. After format my SD Card to FAT32, the ROM can be installed.
On Device
1. Boot in to Recovery mode by Volume up + Home + Power
2. Wipe Factory reset / Dalvik Cache
3. Format /System (under "mount and storage" menu) [IMPORTANT STEP]
4. Install Rom from SD Card
5. Say your prayer. You'll need it. (The installation could take sometimes. If the device screen shows Samsung boot animation, you're half way there)

Don't worry, as long as you can get into recovery and download modes, there will be a solution, its only a matter of time before we zone in on a solution.
What CSC region phone do you have? Dial *#1234# and check what the CSC code is. Also how much storage do you have on your phone 16Gb or 32GB?

ODIN 3.0x
Part 2: Prep
Get the battery charged to 100%.
Find a PC and plug the powercord (microUSB Cord) directly into the motherboard. NOT ANY OTHER PORT.
Format the SD Card to ExFAT you need from Part 1.1.
Using the #3 Program from Part 1.3, burn the image to the SD Card. Its simple.
Part 3: Turn it on
Put the battery into the phone.
Plug the charging cord into the phone.

Once you are in download mode press <Volume Up> to enter download mode. Now go to part 4
Part 4: Putting the ROM back on
Don't Deviate from anything here or do extras.
Open Odin from Part 1.5.
Press PDA and Select your STOCK ROM from Part 1.4
Wait a min for Odin to analyze the file.
Hit Start on Odin.

You may want to realize the difference between a EFS-based bootloop, versus what I am looking for after a hard brick.
But thank you for your input.
How did you brick it? - Reason I ask, is cause the w8 is downgradable from 4.4.2 so bootloader playing should not have affected you. Unless you flashed something on it you shouldn't have?
Its not mine, but for someone else who asked me to help. I am not sure how it was bricked. Regardless it is a hard brick..

Hello i'm about to perform this method..Just wanted to confirm with someone that I can use any of the debrick.img provided for version 4.4.2 on my w8. Thanks! I hope to god this works!
Just and FYI -
You don't mention it in the steps about actually putting the sdcard with the unbrick image into the phone again. I assume at or after 3.3 .
Unbelievable ! This worked for me as well. This feature of the Note 3 makes it tinkerer's dream, it makes it virtually brick-proof. I thought I was done when I could not get back to download mode. I was starting to plan out what I was going to do for my next phone.
By the way in my case it was a N900W8 from Puerto Rico. I purchased it locked to Clairo and unlocked it and flashed to Telus stock ROM. If anyone else has gone this route this method works to unbrick. At first it would not go into download, I had to pull the battery and let it sit for a day. The next day I put in a fresh battery and it booted right to the download selector screen. WAhooo! ...and I was off to the races. Much thanks to the OP and the OOP for this solution.
FYI - formatting the sdcard with the boot recovery partition makes it unusable in the state. Just reformat it again to Fat32 and you can use it as a sdcard again. If you have trouble formatting it I used Mini Tools Partition Wizard, it does the trick.

Hey friend, Can you please explain me what's the procedure in your FYI? and also, has your phone been working correctly since then? Do I have to keep the debrick.IMG for ever on my SD card? What do you mean by boot recovery partition?
Thanks in advance
Do u have a debrick for lollipop. Pls help
Hi all, hope you can help.
I was using an S5 ROM until yestersay and it was perfect. I dont recall the name, but it was from here and it was the one on v4, not v23. So i needed to put the stock ROM back on, but when i did that i started getting problems. The 2 issues i have are;
1) no network, imei, baseband
2) rom got stuck on samsung boot logo, then freezes when eventually loaded
I flashed it the same as i have 100s of times on other phones, factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik. I reinstalled the rom that was working and its the same. I then installed an AOSP ROM and whike that loads and works perfectly, there is still no network/baseband/imei.
I did flash 2 modems last night, but the issues remains.
So, does anyone know how i can ideally get a stock TW ROM working without crashes and get the network back up?
Have you tried restoring your efs backup?
Edit:
Try flashing this -
http://www.mediafire.com/?k32kvbgb2dc9qde
Here is the thread for it -
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2507403
Thank you, I will try flashing that, but it does boot with the AOSP ROM.
Sadly i dont have a backup of the efs.
I have just installed another TouchWiz ROM and it also is freezing.
It boots in fine after install, but when the screen is locked, it freezes. From that point on the phone is unresponsive.
Oh, and no network/IMEI of course.
I think I have totally screwed this Note 3, which is mildly annoying.

Hi, no you dont
Just find and flash the correct stock rom from samobile and flash it.
By correct rom i mean the Region version.
I had the same problem a few days ago.

I had freezing rom and imei Null, and broadband unknown.
OK, that makes me feel quite hopeful!
The ROM has just finished, so I'll install now. Did you just flash with Odin? If so, was it 3.07 or 3.09?

Yes, with ODIN but i dont remember the version. I dont think it is so important for flashing.
Sadly that has not done the trick.
The ROM installed, but when it gets through the set up, there is still no service.
Baseband: Unknown
Network: Unknown
Mobile Network State: Disconnected
Service State: Out of Service
IMEI: Unknown
When I lock the device it's fine, but as soon as I wake and try to unlock, it freezes.
I'm going to have to take it to Samsung, but I guess the first thing they will do is check the warranty
Fark.
I went to the Samsung Experience shop on Oxford Street - they were really helpful
...until they say that the knox had been tripped. Practically pushed me out the door and told me to f*** off.
So, I have a dead Note 3 that won't hold a TW ROM and has no service on any ROM.
Any suggestions would be welcome at this stage!

One of the thing that will help is to flash as much roms you can. In my case 11 roms. And on the 12th the network comes back.
And there a lot in google and in samobile that you can try.
But flashing as much rom as you can is the best way.
Good Luck
If it's an N9005, it sounds like the issues i was having with my phone when i first installed the S5 Rom.
No matter what i did, or how many times i tried flashing back to stock, it wouldn't work at all, it just kept freezing, lagging, no sound, no baseband/IMEI etc. What fixed it for me was downloading the NH1 Modem and flashing it in ODIN. If when you restart your phone, there is still no baseband/IMEI then restart back into Download mode, flash modem with ODIN but make sure Restart is unticked. When it's flashed, pull the battery out of your phone, then put it back in again. Restart back into download and flash the modem again, but tick auto restart this time. Hopefully you'll be back sorted when the phone restarts.
Get the modem from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/general/ref-galaxy-note-3-sm-n9005-gsm-modems-t2842806

I flashed the S5 Stock Rom Final 20 (At the time) and all seemed fine. After i'd flashed though, it just didn't seem to recognise my baseband, and no matter how many times i flashed to stock, it wouldn't change anything.
In the end, i flashed the N9005XXUENB7_N9005OXAENB1_BTU Stock Rom, then flashed the NH1 Modem. That kicked my Note 3 back into life and restored IMEI/Baseband. From there, i just flashed the S5 rom back and it was all working fine. I think the modem should kick it into gear no matter what rom you're using though.
Dude. You are a star.
I downloaded the ROM you said, flashed, then flashed the modem the way you said and it works.
Thank you so much.

You're very welcome pal, glad your Note 3 is back working properly!

Did you already found a solution? i am stuck on this thing too
Guys, I'm making this thread for those people who are using Sprint's Note 4 (N910P) outside of US and are stuck with Sprint's ROM (or the ROMs that are based on it) and have certain issues in using the ROM.
For instance, I'm using the unlocked variant of N910P with a GSM carrier, so I was having problem in connecting to the Hot-Spot feature as all of my devices were stuck at "Obtaining IP Address" loop and eventually would never connect.
I did try various "hacks" present here on XDA for enabling Hot-Spot feature like using Galaxy Tools, using SQLite Editor, etc but wasn't able to overcome the problem.
Since, XDA is a great platform for sharing solutions to various problems, I decided to create a thread especially for those who don't want Sprint's bloatware but want to stick with "Stock ROM features" like S Pen.
Hence, here's the step-by-step guide for installing other carrier's ROM on N910P:
Before attempting all this,make sure to be on OK1 Bootloader & Baseband (Do not try this on Marshmallow Bootloaders) for N910P.
Step 1:
Install TWRP recovery version 3.0.1 (Yes, you read it right..it's 3.0.1 & not 3.0.2)
Once you have downloaded, flash it through ODIN (the TAR file) or through existing TWRP (using ISO image).
Step 2:
Make a backup of your current ROM so that you can revert to it in case of unsuccessful flash.
Step 3:
Go to Wipe (in TWRP)-----> Factory reset (do this 3 times.....yes, 3 times!)
Then, go to Advanced Wipe & wipe Dalvik/ART cache,Cache,Data,Internal Storage, System (Do not wipe external SD Card).
Hit the back button to come out of the "wipe window"
Step 4:
Click on "Install" and choose the files in following order:
a) Dr Ketan's ROM
b) Data Fix for the ROM
c) Kernel
d) SuperSU (I used beta 2.71)
Once the flashing process is finished, reboot the system and wait for the phone to boot.
It will take a long time (around 10-15 minutes) to boot.
Once you are on setup wizard screen, choose to apply "Dr Ketan's fix" and then you can proceed like you do in any other ROM.
Downloads:
TWRP: https://dl.twrp.me/trltecan/
(Choose TAR or ISO as per your choice and flash accordingly)
ROM:

Super SU:

Note: I am in no way to be credited for all this as the links provided above are a result of hard work from the respective developers. I have just compiled all the links into one thread so that it can help anyone like me to switch to other ROM.
Also, neither I nor any of the above mentioned developers/members are responsible for any fault that may arise due to improper flash or other reasons..
Do all of it at your own risk!
Last but not the least, I would like to thank @ricohz for helping me out when I was stuck in some steps..
(In the screen-shot attached, the model number is 920T for obvious reasons...so don't ask why it's not 910P..)
Do note that the APNs have to be edited manually, else the data connectivity would not be there!
(This thread should benefit the non-Sprint users........)
Update:
There are some more ROMs that can be flashed successfully on N910P such as:
1. Maximum Overdrive
http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-tmobile/development/s7-portn910t-n910w8-t3375956
2. Nameless ROM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/snapdragon-dev/rom-nameless-mm-lightfastdeodexed-t3363547
Kindly say Thanks to the developers on their respective threads for all their hard work.

OK1 bootloader has been suggested so as to avoid any incompatibility issues for the ROM!

Tinkering and flashing custom ROMs on Android is not always a piece of cake...
Loads of patience is required and if the process is not carried out as stated/expected, time is bound to get wasted.
Anyway, here's what you need to do (Or at-least, expected to do..):
1. Take a backup of the current ROM.
2. Do Factory reset 3 times ( First time, do it again & do it yet again..making it three times)
3. Wipe everything(except External SD Card) again 3 times as above.
4. Flash the ROM.
5.Once ROM is flashed, do not reboot & flash the Data Fix.
6.Again, do not reboot and flash the Vitamin Kernel (originally meant for F variant).
7. Do not reboot yet again & flash the SuperSU (I FLASHED 2.71).
Now, reboot and wait for the setup screen to appear. It will take quite a long time to appear and the phgone will be stuck on Samsung logo for quite a while.
Now, if you have patience, wait for the process to finish, and if not, you know what to do..

Step 2:

I don't think that you can directly flash the stock ROM of "F variant" directly. Doing so might result in a bricked device.
My advise to you will be to carry out the procedure as stated in this thread.
The ROM provided in this thread is 99% stock so you will not face any compatibility issues.
got echoe data fix MO here I come fallow by Dr ketans data fix should apply to all roms with minor tweaks

Stuck in bootloop
Hi guys,
I am a noob. My Blu Vivo 5R is stuck in a boot loop after installing the TWRP. I can get into TWRP, but cannot get out of the first boot screen (black and white).
I already tried Wipe and reboot. It is still in boot loop.
I am not sure what to do next. Is the Stock Rom corrupted? If so where would I get the stock rom and how would I restore it?
Please help.:crying:
Thank you kindly.

Hi,
You should read my posts before flashing recovery. It's all explained here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/vivo-5r/how-to/how-to-root-blu-vivo-5r-t3492718
You can get stock rom from here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/vivo-5r/how-to/blu-vivo-5r-stock-roms-bluv0090eev11-t3492756
And 100% working TWRP recovery is here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/vivo-5r/how-to/twrp-recovery-blu-vivo-5r-t3492739
Your problem is lock oem bootloader. You need to unlock bootloader and folow everythink step by step. The most important is to press the volume up button for Yes, after pressing command fastboot oem unlock.. If you wont press yes, you get bootloop problem.
If you want to flash stock rom you need to use SPflash tool. You will need to learn how to use it first before flashing.
To unlock bootloader you can use ADB fastboot.
* Type adb reboot bootloader and press enter. The phone should now enter Fastboot (black screen with only fastboot written at the top or bottom)
* Type fastboot oem unlock and press enter. (Warning: This step will wipe all your data and factory reset your phone!)
* You should get a prompt on the device asking you to confirm Bootloader unlock, !!! press the volume up button for Yes !!! on your phone.
* You should now get a success message
* You can check the status of your bootloader lock, type fastboot getvar all and press enter.
See this ex. (bootloader) unlocked:yes
* Type fastboot reboot and pres enter
* You should now boot back into your phone.
You will need to complete the Android setup wizard at this point to get access to ADB command again.
Hi mirozeman,
Thanks for your response. Last night when I was in TWRP I selected the Reboot into Bootloader option. The phone booted into the bootloader. I did select Fastboot OEM unlock and select Yes.
I can't remember but I think it took me back to TWRP. Once I was in TWRP I chose reboot into system. It was stuck in boot loop again.
I will try it again tonight.
How do you execute an ADB command from a computer if the phone is in a Bootloop. The computer will not recognize the usb connection.
Can I flash the ROM by doing this:
1. copying the Factory Rom (zip file) onto a SD card and insert into phone
2 . Go into TWRP and click the Install button
3. navigate to the Factory rom zip file and install it from there?
Will this get me out of a boot loop?
or do I have to use the SP Flash Tool?
Thanks.
Charlotte.
My vivo 5R is alive again
Hi mirozeman,
My phone is up and running now. It is also rooted. Thank you for the well written instruction that you have provided.
I used it root my phone successfully.
I wish I had seen your instruction before I attempted rooting for the first time. It would have saved me a lot of grieves.
The instruction that I had used in my first attempt did not say to tap "Keep Read Only". It told me to swipe to allow modification of the system Partition. This is where it probably messed up my phone. TWRP was saying there was no OS installed, and I could not boot it. Stuck in boot loop.
Many thanks to the person who uploaded the Blu Vivo 5R factory ROM. I had to use the SP Flash Tool like you suggested and was able to flash the factory ROM on to the phone. Afterward, I carefully followed your instruction to install TWRP and SuperSU.
I am very grateful for all the helps and resources provided by this forum and members. You guys are awesome!
Many thanks again.

I don't know what is causing this error, maybe you have different provider. Did you try other sim cards.
There is new update for this rom. Please can you try to flash newer rom and see if it will sort this problem. Thanks.

If it won't help you can try to flash rom from other manufacturer. This rom is 100% compatible with Vivo 5R.

Thanks man. That's the ROM I had reflash on the phone. Maybe I need to go back to an earlier version that was on the phone? When I first got it, it updated from the server. Then I had an issue so I had to flash a the stock that was in your thread.
