[Q] Broken phone - cant figure out how to fix!

Hey fellas. I have to take my hat off to all of those who have done some great work for the VZW Note 3.. Well to my issue now.
I tried to step back to the original release from the MJ7 (I havent read you cant do that yet but I think I figured out why you shouldn't). I wanted to deox, root and safestrap the MJ7 release and I thought this would be the only way how.
Anyways now I am stuck at the "firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please use Software Repair Assistant and try again" screen. I have tried to download the stock release from six different sources, all corrupt (one site, six different mirrors) and obviously failed.
Any suggestions? I need to go to work soon and my phone is very useful at work....
Thanks

What worked for me was booting to recovery and wiping data..

Every time I try and download the stock files (the one before MJ7) all I get is corrupt files. Takes about 20 minutes per file and I hvae done it at least 6 times now... so I have been at this a while.
And that stupid spam thing every time I want to post is driving me insane, literally!

I tried to do the normal stock rooted file and I get the error "SECURE CHECK FAIL : CACHE"

YES! I finally got it after 4 hours of working on it. Had to re partition it.

Not sure of your exact situation, but you cannot flash MI9 back after going to MJ7. You will need the full MJ7 Odin file and most probably the pit file too.

I used it. YMMV

4.3 downgrade -> 4.2.2 epic fal

I just did legend fail.
Been on stock MK2 (MF3 sideloaded to upgrade MK2), then i decided to go back to 4.2.2 stock since i really did not like the 4.3, did not make any research, so i odin the MF3 files and tried to flaash, but got an error in first 5 sec. Now every time i switch on the phone its saying i have to make upgrade through KIES, what sounds work w/o luck.
I know we dont have 4.3 odin files yet and not sure we will have them, but is there any way still to get this device to work ? Or its absolutely broke ?
Would appriciate any help ty

If Samsung experience at best buy has the new update, you could try to see if they could help. If not, I feel you are in for a wait.

I did the same thing on my SGH-I337M. Kies was a waste of time. I used Odin, downloaded the newest 4,3 firmware and reflashed it in update bootloader section only. Took about 8 minutes but saved my phone. Knox won't let us downgrade so we are sad at the moment.

can any1 please share this file bootloader of MK2 so i can flash it throu odin to make the device to work, would appriciate any further info or help ty. w/o phone for 3 days already

I know you used the xda app so you probably didn't notice the OP is located in Athens, Greece. So no dice

Yeap got the phone from my bro he is leaving in Rochester, if i would know that he sent me At&T and its as block as it is now, i would spent money to buy it from Amazon Germany, internatioonal fully functional =) but my luck

Since we got the 4.3 update closing our download funtion in phone, will we be able to flash through odin the stock 4.3 MK2 to re-stock bricked sgs4 ? like you can do with MF3?
I am asking since currently i am w/o phone and waiting for someone to post the stock MK2, but will that for sure make it work normal excluding its blocked downlaod etc. ? just curious

Same thing happened to me.. I worked for hours and finally just tried flashing the I337 PIT file thru Odin in the Pit option.. It said failed but I pulled the battery and rebooted into recovery then restarted.. Google for the pit file.... I have the full zip MK2 file but you have to have the MD5 files for Odin
Sent from my GT-N8013 using xda app-developers

If i will flash PIT file i will be able to enter recovery ? since know the only option i have is download mode, and kies recovery (what is useless)
When u flash PIT with fail and enter recovery what did you do next ? the device booted normally ?
Where can i find this PIT ?
Ty for the help

So let me ask this so I do not make a similar mistake. Yesterday I used odin to go to mf3 then sideloaded mj9,. If I have the file for mk2. Can I just side load it even though im on mj9?

Yes, you should be able to sideload or flash the zip through recovery.. With all these fails at updates, I wish I would have stayed at what I had and not messed with it..lol.. It seems nothing is guaranteed and it's always a risky chance when you flash something..

I decided to update to 4.3 and didnt like it so i stock flash 4.2 back via odin. flash said "pass" but now i have knox on recovery. Im guessing i have the new bootloader. 4.2 flash on but with errors like wifi wont toggle on & on every reboot i get an erro "kernel seandroid is not reonforsing" or something like that...so now im stock on 4.3 :/

The mistake i made was to go downgrade from 4.3 to 4.2.2 do not make it since we do not have files for ODIN flash 4.3.
There is full 700 mb file witch you can easily sideload, if u get any error just go back to odin to flash stock MF3 and then sideload MK2, worked for me w/o problem but pls do not downgrade !
If i were you i would not go 4.3, TW is much more bugged for me, and phone feels way different thats why i wanted to go back to 4.2.2

I was able to downgrade... kinda..
I had my own epic fail when bell's update came out.
Flashed stock/counter reset.
Got OTA update no prob.
Rooted - Deleted too much bloat... (didnt backup) MY EPIC MISTAKE.
Thought "oh ill just start again"
Odin Back to 4.2.2 FAIL!!!
Stuck.. kinda
found someone with the international version in the same issue that odin flashed files from another carrier and was able to fix his situation...
so i went to http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/ and downloaded the NEWEST date 4.2.2 rom for my 337m, which happened to be Dominican Republic carrier.
Flashed the DR version successfully in odin, and had no sound, no mic, no wifi.
I was then able to Odin flash 4.2.2 from bell... but still had no sound, no mic, no wifi....
the only real fix was LUCKILY within 24 hours of the OTA release, the odin file was posted to sammobile and saved my ass... all works now.
Played with the 4.3 update for a couple hours, then went back to 4.4 builds... LOL
At least i got to use my captivate again for a few calls for a day. that was nice.

Really have no idea how i an fix this w/o odin files.

umm you cant.

Problems solved, any1 who will have the same issue as me:
Had MK2 update installed and wanted to downgrade to 4.2.2 and failed to kies update, just flash the attached filed, it will fail you in download mode, but after 2-3 tried, just restart the device, and it will normally boot into 4.3 =)
Ty for all the help, and info best regards !

This is the complete guide on how to flash back from 4.2.2. Even that 16 gig pit file won't even work on some peoples phone. Use this guide and it will help you get back to 4.3. First mj9 than you can sideload mk2.

[Q] incidentally formated stock rom slot in ss

I got distracted and accidentally formatted the stock rom slot in ss. Now it will not boot. Ss comes up then the screen goes black. I tried to create a new rom slot but its saying there is no available memory. Ive been reading a lot of posts but any advice would be greatly appreciated

Have you tried flashing a new Rom to that slot yet?

Not yet. Would i just download the stock firmware to an sd card and flash it that way? i've been trying to mess around with odin but the i cant get a good firmware download that odin will recognize

You have safestrap still functional? If so then yes you can download stock rom and install.

yes safstrap is the only thing that comes up. its either enter recovery or black screen. It is saying no os loaded and the install and wipe button are red when on stock rom slot. I've downloaded a stock rom on my sd but it isn't showing up in safestrap. but there is a MD5 file there when I check it on my computer

Reboot the phone into download mode and flash with Odin. You will need to find stock note 3 in tar format for Odin.

Ill try that now. I got safestrap to recognize the file but it fails everytime i flash

You can use kies to try and restore as well. Just make sure you remove it after as it can cause future problems with installs and Odin

Ive tried that as well. Kies doesnt recognize my phone....Ive tried to trouble shoot....I downloaded the correct version and updated but still nothing..
Im looking for a software repair assistant download now

Before doing that remove everything to do with the phone from your computer. Kies, Odin.....all of it. Download just the driver for your phone. Try Odin again. There are reports of Odin and kies clashing. I feel your frustration, I had the same issue with my note 2. When in the download screen what is listed in the top left corner?

Definitely a bummer.

so your saying write protection that is enabled is time for jtag?
Not to sound rude, but i think the write protection is always enabled. I did the exact samething. I just used odin and returned it back to stock. bam fixed. I just checked mine and it shows enabled.

Where did u get the tar files and pit files from? and what version of odin are you using.
EDIT: Go here and make sure you dont have odin or keis installed, and follow these steps. down to the exact.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2483380
EDIT 2: If odin doesnt reconize the tar file. at the end of the file may be two many extentions.. right click and rename. keep the same name but remove the extra extentions except the tar.

Odin-compatible G900AUCU4BOF2 stock rom?

Hi, I'm stupid and bricked my phone.
I had rooted almost immediately after getting my phone, AT&T SM-G900A, and had no problems.
Used FlashFire to apply the 5.0 pre-rooted stock rom (OC4), and had no problems.
Decided today to use SuperSU's "Full Unroot" function, rebooted, and now I can't get past the AT&T logo on boot. And apparently even after that the phone is still rooted.
Tried the G900AUCU3BOC4-OneClick.exe Odin flasher, but it fails and I get "sw rev check fail [aboot]: fused 4 > binary 3" which from what I understand means I am trying to install a rom version that is older than the one I currently have.
Looked on the internet to see if there is any Odin-compatible tar.md5 file for the newer versions, hoping one of those would let me update. However, I can only find .zip files made by muniz_ri. Tried copying those to my microSD card and install through recovery, but it fails with "invalid header". It looks like those zip files only work with FlashFire, which I can't even get to anymore because I can't boot.
Is there a floating copy of one of the newer stock roms (can be unrooted, I don't care) that I can flash with Odin? Or is there another secret I am missing? I have been through dozens of threads here on the forums and they all seem to have a solution that just give me any results.
Thanks for any help!

I have followed all steps. I am using the J727p for boost. It turned on loaded up normally for me then when I restarted the phone it is now stuck in a boot load it gets to the Samsung screen then shuts off and repeats.

this fixed my blinking:
rpmb provisioned ...pink
rpmb fuse: 1 ...yellow
recovery booting ...blue

This does not work. I've tried it multiple times on multiple versions of Odin. This will not work if you use Boost Mobile. It either fails, hangs at flashing boot.img, or hangs at SetupConnection.

This works to get you back to stock from bootloop. I tried my hand at rooting this little SOB (TWRP,Magisk) and tripped the Knox counter bc I forgot to wipe it. Reboot came up with "Validation Failure" and I was stuck. I stumbled over this post and with nothing to lose other than $130.
First piece of advice...Use Odin 3.12.3 ONLY!! I tried the latest version and it didn't work. Download the files, place them in the appropriate boxes and flash. reboot into recovery, wipe the cache/data and you should be good. Mine took quite a while after hanging on the Boost mobile splash screen, but about 3 reboots later, it brought me to the configuration screen. It's up, running and I even got the OTA software update, but then again, it is stock.
