[Q] need a lot of help - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

Hi, I have a sgh i337. A few of my little cousins were playing with my phone and used vroot to accidentally uninstall the at&t software update app/ configuration from the phone. Now every time I press software update nothing happens. What do I do? Plus
My phone is unlocked and I live outside the USA.. will I still receive the OTA update or how do I update to Kit kat...
What do I do?

I don't know what firmware version you're on, but you're most likely going to have to use odin with your current firmware version. This will return you to stock. Backup everything before you do this.

Then you need these tar files for Odin http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=49687770
Use the all-in-one and place it in the PDA slot of Odin

When you use Odin it'll become more obvious. You'll down load the tar file to your pc. When you open Odin there will be an area named PDA which you'll browse to the tar file you downloaded.

SM-N9005 Kitkat 4.4.3 failed

After updating my phone to the new firmware N9005XXUENA6_N9005OXXENA5_XEO.zip my phone failed to flash using Odin. I have tried so many version of Odin and still no luck, i have basically downloaded every rom that i can find from samsung-updates.com and still no luck. Let me know if you guys have a for fix for this because as of right now i can boot into Odin Mode but when i try to flash it via Odin 3.09 on any Rom it will fail. And yes i have tried every Samsung Kies version to try initialize this phone but it just does not work. i have attached the image of my S/N and Model this is one of the HK version and yes i tried the HK TGY rom and still no luck.

Well if you can still get into download mode you are still safe.
Does it fail mid flash or can´t even recognize your phone?
Reboot your pc and try again.
It will fail on the ABOOT, and i have tried to reboot my pc and still no luck i have attached my model of the phone

Try this guide. It seems to be the same phone as yours.
If you are trying to go back to 4.3 from 4.4.2 then it won't be possible. You will now have to stay in KitKat only and wait for more ROM for KitKat.

Did you try flashing with update bootloader ticked? If you tried that already then I think you are going to have to wait for the hk version of kit Kat for your phone to work again.
Or try this..... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=null

Hmm.
Weird.
Do you know how to use heimdall?
Use it to have a look at your pit file and compare it to the one in the CSC zip. See what all is different.
Or just post your pit here.
EDIT: Just noticed that you have a 16GB version. I don't know how to help you there, man. You need a completely different pit file. One that is designed for 16GB. But since that model was only launched in Hong Kong, I don't think you will find one from outside, unless somebody can make one specifically for you. I have been trying to learn to do that, but as of yet, I can't.
Without a proper pit file, your only options are either wait for the Hong Kong Kitkat version or try installing the Sweet ROM.

Well thats an issue because im not sure if this my right PIT FILE for this phone. Because usually it will go smoothly for these manual updates using Odin and this is my first encountering this error. And my fault i didnt backup my ROM which i should have done first before getting excited with this KitKat for my Note 3. That CSC file i got that from this site http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2613374 and just followed instructions on how to do it, but it will just give me that error when i try to apply that method. But here's the PIT file that i got from that download.
I think its on a wrong region because i got that leaked update here http://www.sammobile.com/2014/01/13...kitkat-rolling-out-to-galaxy-note-3-sm-n9005/ and it looks like from Poland? does that matter? because my Note 3 is and HK version?
I have done so many phones rooted them and install custom roms this is the first time it failed on me. And funny thing is its my own cell phone lol

You gave me the pit file from the zip. I was asking for the one from your phone.
But anyway I found one for the 16GB version somehwere. I am taking a look at it. Will try editing it to fit your needs. Give me a little while.
And yes, it matters, because the pit file determines the sizes of the various partitions. Since yours is a 16GB version, the pit from a 32GB won't work.

Try flashing this tar file. Put it in the CSC part of the Odin.
Though I can't guarantee anything. First time, I am doing anything like this.

Odin just crashed on me while it was on SET PARTITION

soft brick, which tar to use?

ok, so my phone hangs at the SAMSUNG, GALAXY S4 screen no matter what I wipe or flash. I want to odin it back to stock and start over, but all I see are the mk2 and nb1 .tar files. I have one of the very first gs4's, had it first day and it rooted without safestrap. Where are those .tar files to odin?
Go to sammobile.com and search. Get the MDL firmware, and be ready to root and freeze the update or put a ROM on it before it updates and you can't exploit it anymore.

Make sure the download is full. Try different USB ports and different cables. Make sure you have the latest Samsung drivers also. If it's giving you an issue still then you might have partially upgraded and might need to flash a newer firmware, but I would hold off on that as long as possible in order to keep your freedom.

Those files are the extraction of the kies .zip download. They are flashable trough ODIN 3.09. New devices like note 3 firmware are also donloaded like that,,,,
here is a sample of how you should use those files...
QUESTIONS.
Hi.
So all those 4 files listed are used at once?...
How do you get them into Odin3?.. Do you link from this page or do you need to download them AND how do you do that?
Would it fix the blue screen of death?
I have tried the AT&T OTA lollipop that just came out and the pad won't update?..
Is it an AT&T update or is it a Samsung update..
Do I need the AT&T sim card installed for it to update as I'm using a different carrier for the LTE?
Updated back to stock ROM and still no OTA update.
Richard.
Locate the lollipop update try downloading it to your sd card and reboot in recovery. Tell it to update from the file on the sd card. This way works! I know because I have done it . The AT&T update doesn't work, now matter how many times I try it. I remember getting the file from Samsung updates. I hope this helps, couldn't find my source when I went looking . Best of luck to you...May your update go smoothly. :laugh:

So just put that complete file on an mini SD card and it will find all the files it needs and update itself?
Does the new lollipop update remove the infamous AT&T blue screen of death problem?

Read this to go to stock

Thanks a ton. I effectively want my phone back as it came from the factory. I'm fine with 4.3 as long as I can update it after the restore to the latest stock firmware (via Kies or OTA). Also, would this remove SafeStrap? Thanks again...
Yes it will remove Safestrap. Your phone will be completely stock. Well, back to MK2. Have to set the whole thing up again too. Pain in the butt but oh well. LOL. If you need more help just ask. good luck.

He's just trying to give you another option if your planning on updrading to nb1, nc1 anyway. Personally, I do it the way I told you. I've gotten fairly good at flashing roms and stuff, but not quite comfortable with some things, yet. I, personally, would just downgrade to mk2 and then kies/ota the rest of the way. You can always reroot with towelroot on nc1 if you want to root again. Especially if your not comfortable doing it the way Ted told you. Just like he told you though. Make sure you have all the files downloaded, drivers on your pc installed first, usb debuggin checked in developer otions though. I've never had a problem downgrading to mk2 with his post. Just follow the directions in post 2 of the link I gave you and you should be good. He has odin 1.85 in the instructions, but I use the latest odin 3.09 and put AP into PDA slot in odin. The rest in the corresponding slots. His files and instructions have helped save me from a lot of screw ups.
Thanks!!

Hi ,
I think you have latest build now (4.4.4) , yes ? If yes , you must to try to flash via Odin older firmware http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/34971/T537VVRU1ANE2_T537VVZW1ANE2_VZW/ from any source . Before flashing you must to do factory reset . Then to try Towelroot . Perhaps you must to try like here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=58501194&postcount=245 . Then freeze or delete update service . If all will be fail , flash your last firmware again (for return back) .
Remember , you lost data when do factory reset .
You not afraid nothing .

you flash archive from https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95916177934538217 ?
That's the archive I'm using. I don't think I'm using Odin right.

Still getting above mentioned error on my device after i start the flash and it fails. Alas it appears i shall have to wait until someone figures out how to root the newest firmware.

So , good guide . Follow him . Unfortunately install this firmware does not work.
You dont try flash only older kernel like PDA via Odin ?
I also tried to flash using odin 3.07 and the PDA option but it fails.
Thanks again for all the help

And why exactly shouldn't they try that? That's exactly what they're doing here I even contacted the moderator to verify that. Plus I used that method to re-root after I had to Odin back to complete factory stock. I don't see what the problem is flashing just an older kernel, rooting using towelroot, and then flashing the most current kernel. That's exactly how my tablet is rooted and was on the most current firmware (OA2) before I flashed Cyanogenmod
