Note 3 SM-N9005 Firmware Issue & Device Recognised As 'Samsung GT-S5690'

Hi all,
I've heard great things about this website and joined up hoping to God you could help me. I tried updating the firmare on my phone to 4.4.2 from 4.3 using Odin3 v3.07 and it stopped suddenly with an error message and now my Note 3 continuously displays:
“Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again“
I have looked extensively through the threads already started but couldn't find a solution particularly as Kies is not recognising my device anymore stating it is an unsupported device, furthermore, 'MobileGo' software is showing the device as being a 'Samsung GT-S5690', instead of Note 3??. I tried Odin to recover back to original firmware but failed both times and phone now stuck on “Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again“.
My Mobile details are:
Model Number: SM-N9005
Serial Number: RF1DA5NMM5M
This is a log of 2 different attempts using Odin, one to 4.4.2 and the other back to stock:

Thanks, once I have used Odin v3.09 to flash cwm recovery, will I still need to flash back to stock or will it simply work?

You will have to flash stock firmware 4.4 before your phone will work again. Simply flashing cwm will get you to cwm recovery but not a working phone.

Hi, I have found a tutorial on flashing ClockworkMod Recovery v6.0.4.5 but it states:
"Must enable USB Debugging first" and also "Must let Reactivation lock off first", is this absolutely necessary as I can't access my phone, let alone its settings? Can I still proceed with installing ClockworkMod Recovery?

Don't follow that one.
Go here and download the right file for your phone's model, put phone in download mode and flash using odin in ap/pda slot.
Btw, have you tried flashing 4.4 using odin v3.09?

When odin gives you the fail message technically you've already flashed the stock, but for some reason odin doesn't recognise it as a pass. .leave your phone plugged in, reset odin, put your phone into download phone and then flash recovery. . Hey presto your phone will wake up..

I don't think this is the case because when I first tried flashing from 4.3 to 4.4.2 it tried for a few seconds then failed and been stuck on “Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again“ despite resetting Odin and going back into download mode, tried reflashing but keep getting the 'FAIL' (logs posted in original first post).
Is there any reason why my phone is being detected as 'Samsung GT-S5690' in MobileGo? I'm thinking if Kies could detect it as the Note 3 again my problems would be solved.
I haven't tried Odin v3.09 because to be honest I thought the firmware file once extracted as a RAR file could only be read by Odin v3.07 is that not the case?
Soz everyone

looks like u r trying to flash 4.3 & 4.4 one after one, now dont try 4.3 at all, make sure kies is not running in baground, disable antivirus if any.

I had the the same issue with kies myself, tried every trick in the book before I tried the method I mention above.. maybe it's an issue with the phone itself, or a certain batch of phones?

The writing of stock 4.3 fails since your bootloader was updated by your failed attempt. You will probably never be able to write a 4.3 stock image.
The writing of 4.4 NB1 fails since probably it is for a slightly different region with a slightly different partitioning scheme. Ideally install the 4.4 for your specific model/region. If that fails you might need to write some 4.4 with repartition - there are some threads around (I think also the Hong-Kong version had serious problems with 4.4 because of that).

I saw the Hong Kong thread and to be honest got lost reading the posts, i'm beginning to think this is going to be a task beyond my capabilities as not the most technologically minded of people and need to be spoon fed. Is there an easy way to find out if I have a Hong Kong version phone? I brought it from e-cell on Ebay a couple of months ago?
If using a different version of Odin such as v3.09 once the firmware file is extracted where does it go as v3.07 is goes in the PDA section?
Many thanks

There is AP in 3.09 in place of PDA.

I don't think there is an easy way to see what the original version was as long as you can no longer boot the phone. I think the EU model is generally listed as N9005ZWE while the HK is N9005ZKA and that might be written somewhere on the box. Also it might be a different partitioning model even if it is not a Hong-Kong model.

I've taken the phone to a repair shop recommended by Samsung themselves, they've had it a week now and I rang yesterday and they said it is the first Hong Kong Note 3 they've received and are waiting to hear from Samsung as to how to repair it. BIG YAWN!
Will keep you posted - miss my phone

[Help] G900A unable to flash with ODIN trying to bring phone to stock - was towelroot

Hi,
I am trying to unroot my wife's Samsung Galaxy S5 SM-G900A. I went ahead and did unroot via SU, then reboot. I've done a reset/wipe via recovery mode which was successful this was all after attempting to flash to stock ROM and it kept failing. I was hoping unrooting and wiping data and cache would help but none has I keep running into the same problem in ODIN see below:

I have tried multiple Samsung branded USB cords in multiple USB ports (even on multiple computers) all with the same issue. I went ahead and downloaded the G900A PIT file and tried to install that with ODIN but that failed as well. I have debug mode enabled it didn't change anything. I have also used multiple versions of ODIN both v3-1.85 and v3-3.07 both produce same error.
the rom I'm trying to flash to is: G900AUCU1ANCE_G900AATT1ANCE_G900AUCU1ANCE_HOME.tar.md5 the PIT I ended up trying was SM-G900A_pit.pit.
This phone was originally rooted with towelroot I think at one point I put a ROM on the phone after an update came out that took root away. That rom allowed me to re-root with towelroot and I ended up freezing a ton of the apps and the autoupdate so it wouldn't ever happen again.

If anyone could provide any help in getting this phone back to stock I would really appreciate it

meh i gave up. took it to AT&T they said they had no way to hook it up to flash it which is strange I've read some stores were able to force a flash after people encountered this issue with ODIN but oh well. turned it in for an upgrade for the wife

S4 GT-I9506 is stuck on Firmware upgrade encountered an issue

this model seems difficult (gt-i9506)
i tried to root it via towelroot, then kingoroot, these failed but then now the reboot is stuck on "firmware upgrade encountered an issue"
ive tried Kies firmware recovery but the download fails after 80%,
ive tried the sammobile download the ROM this too fails, network drops out tried this 3 times
i want to try Kies emergency recovery but cant find any recovery code
im stuck i dont know what to do now been researching for 4 hours cant find solution :crying:

could anyone please help?? am going crazy over this spent 2 days researching and finding nothing

Download a complete stock rom and flash it with ODIN. You have to uninstall KIES beforehand (they are conflicting).

thanks for reply...
i took kies off and this is what Odin is giving me...

Not sure... but looks like the rom is not for that device. Are you sure you have a i9506?

on samsmobile GT-I9506/VAU/ Roms (i cant post link)
well the first ROM was 4.2 android (bottom of ROM list), so then tried 4.4 (top of ROM list) android it failed again but with different Odin errors...

can anyone see the fault here...?? no error came up on the device, only on Odin this time

Did you restart after KIES de-installation? Was USB driver successfully missing (so you had to install one manually for ODIN)? If not, you probably still have drivers/files running from KIES.
Otherwise, try a different computer to double check its not the system.

If you originally updated to Android 4.4.x or later on this device, you cannot install 4.3.x or lower as Knox within the bootloader will actively prevent Odin from functioning. As to Odin, make sure you're using the original cable, are not using a hub, have Kies disabled or uninstalled, and use a different USB port. Odin sometimes is picky about the ports it uses.
If you can get the ROM issue resolved, use CF-Autoroot to root, keeping in mind that you will trip the Knox flag in doing so. Towelroot and other one-click root methods don't work on your device.

FIXED IT!!!!!!! :laugh::silly::good::cyclops:
Moved all operations to a different PC running XP with no kies on it
The error still occurred "write fail"
So instead i tried Odin 3.09 instead of 3.07 but most of all i changed usb cables, found an original cable off my mates Nokia
then boom!!! she starting writing!!!
Thankyou so much you legends, you are now my best friends forever!!!
Strangely the new flash, all my old previous data & apps are still on there??? somehow the network is not locked either which i was fearing being a vodafone ROM
still want to root it though

Flashing a ROM through Odin doesn't wipe the data partition, which is why your apps are untouched.

i brick my samsung s4 sgh i337

hello everyone i am new here.
i have come here because i was trying to install a new recovery twrp to be exact. while i was installing it apeared a messge it said: the recovery has been installed correctly would you like to restart your mobile? and i restared my mobile and then it shown a message it said: system software not authorized by at&t has been found on your phone. at that time i had installed android lollipop 5.0.1 and it was rooted and i just wanted to re-install lollipop again by odin but knox and bootloader was enable so i cant reinstall the rom again and it seem like i have bricked my mobile..
help me please.

SGH-i337 is an AT&T phone which has a locked bootloader. If you have old bootloader like MDL you could use the loki exploit when you install the TWRP. What is your bootloader version?
I do not think there is a odin flashable lollipop full firmware exist. The last full firmware released for i337 is NB1 (kitkat). After that there is only incremental OTA upgrade to lollipop.

can i downgrade to kikkat?
i dont know what kind of bootloader i have. but odin is always fail when i try to apply the firmware... let me post a screemcapture!
can i dowgrade via ota... because i have tried to intall lollipop by ota but there is always an error! unpacking the package!

either samsung kies doesnt detect my mobile and i cant not enter to recovery mode because it says that firmware upgrade encountered an issue. please select recovery mode in kies and try again.

The ROM you are trying to flash has a bootloader that is older than the bootloader on the phone. This is evidenced by the fact that Odin stops after trying to flash aboot.mbn.
Look here for a possible solution: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-att/general/guide-odin-to-stock-updating-rooting-t2926642

Simple - wrong firmware for your device.
Twrp, nothing happens? - you need to give details.

it is 100% the correct firmware i downloaded it on samstock for EE (EVR) stock 6.0.1 and 5.1.1 both wont install via odin and samsung tools pro. ive flashed twrp following your guide and that worked but installing super su just gave me the app and no binary files were installed, cf auto root just boot loops me the only tike im able to install any firmware is through emergency recovery on smart switch

If part of the firmware doesn't install then it is not the correct firmware for your particular device, simple.
The bootloader does a sanity check via Odin on any firmware attempted to be installed.
If it doesn't meet the requirements it fails to install.
It's pointless arguing the case because it's a fact and I've been down this road with others who have eventually got the correct firmware of which you've almost proved my point by stating that downloading through Smartswitch installs the correct firmware.
Several factors come into play, model, carrier, region and revision.
Any of these mismatch and installation could potentially fail. Simply being the right model no. isn't enough.
You could probably help yourself if you post more details:
Exact firmware your device is currently running, the firmware you are attempting to install and screenshots or post a log of the output from odin and the info provided on the device display itself after failure.

I got the device on contract with EE so i thought it was locked to EE, my partner bought me a S7 (flat) on vodafone so i put the voda sim into my A510F n it seems to be unlocked to voda not quite sure why i always thought they was locked to the network if it was a contract device, could it possibly be a vodafone stock rom or any other network.
