[Q] note 3 odine update always fails - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

i have galaxy note3 LTE N9005 ,I TRIED TO UPGRADE TO OFFICIAL SAMSUNG KIT KAT 4.4.2 ROM BY ODIN 3.09 BUT IT FAILED, AND NOW CAN NOT RECOVER MY DEVICE, I TRIED MANY TIMES WITH ODIN THE I TRIED OTHER OFFICIAL ROM FOR ADROID 4.3 THE ORIGINAL BUT FAILED, PLEASE MY DEVICE IS DAMAGE OR STILL CAN BE RECOVERED.:crying::crying::crying::crying:

Had the same problem yesterday. You need a PIT-File too for the flashing.
I uploaded it for you, extract and flash it with the AP-File. Re-Partition must be checked in Odin.

Be aware if the Bootloader was flashed there's no point trying for JB (4.3) roms...

it's that pit file good for flashing kitkat 4.4.2 roms ?cheers

Can we upgrade firmware if we have new bootloader?

What I'm hearing is that if you have the new firmware, MH8 for example, then you can't downgrade firmware using Odin.
I am wondering if we can upgrade? Or once we've triggered the KNOX warranty status 0x1 are we stuck on the same firmware?

It seems to suggest that you will not be able to use odin to flash stock firmware , whether upgrading or downgrading . But you could still use custom recovery or you have to remove the bootloader from the tar archive to flash using odin

Yes that's what I thought, damn.
Not that I ever use the stock firmware but I like to flash it to my device because it comes with modem and updated camera drivers.
Do you know if we install custom firmware that is based on stock ROMs that we get the camera drivers included?
hey brah! I tried downgrading from MH8 to lower version firmware UBMG5 to be exact.
and odin shows failed! now I cant use the fone. says "firmware update encountered an issue." tried flashing the same MH8 firmware again but no avail. tried using a PIT files but failed.
please visit my thread hope you could help me out. thanks!

I'm not sure, but I don't think you can downgrade to a stock 4.2.2 rom anymore.

Yeah, as far as I know, you really can't go back to 4.2.2 using Odin after you've flashed 4.3.

However, you can still flash a 4.2.2 ROM via recovery. If you can get there, just wipe everything (wipe, then format cache, system, internal sd) and the load the zip of your preferred 4.2.2 ROM and flash away. That should fix the issue if you haven't got any problems for the interrupted flashing through Odin.

[Q] Help: Unable to flash leaked touchwiz 4.4.2 firmware

I find it unable to flash touchwiz 4.4.2 leaked firmware.
When I tried to flash using Odin provided according to the instructions, it appears "there is no PIT partition" and fails. The flash process even totally do not start. Anyone knows how to solve it? Thanks.
Are you sure you have a gt-i9505. Not a 9500 or 9505G?

It should be definitely 9505, because previously I am always using Omega roms. My current ROM is Omega V19.

Tried to odin back to MK2 afer 4.4.2 update, failed, stuck in odin mode

Hi everyone,
My phone was acing kind of wonky after the 4.4.2 update so I wanted to start fresh from MK2 and OTA to 4.4.2 like I did before. I tried to odin back to MK2 via Odin and the stock MK2 tar but it immediately failed and now it states Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select Recovery Mode in Kies and try again. If anyone has any ideas it would be much appreciated. I'm pretty sure the stock 4.4.2 tar would fix it right up but I dont see it on Samsung Firmware website yet. Thanks.
I don't think you can Odin back to a previous firmware, in this case from 4.4.2 to 4.3. I believe this was the same issue with going from 4.3 to 4.2. You will need the 4.4.2 NAE tar file to recover your phone.

kevin is correct there is no way I think it is due to keys of going back ( not sure if its keys but think it is heh ) anyways what you need to due is install the newest update before kitkat threw odin then you can update to kitkat now that the ota file is available for download.

Which version of Odin do you use. You must use odin 3.09 our newer. I don't know if this will work, but older versions will definitely fail.

I don't think its necessary. I used 3.07 to Odin MK2 before updating to NAE.

3.07 works for mk2, he's on nae and screwed up trying to odin backwards. If he uses the newest odin he might have better luck.

That might be true. Was just trying to say you don't always need the latest to get it to work. Ex. I've used MK2 on 3.07 and 1.85 I believe. But yes he might have luck with the newest.

I was in this situation yesterday. Here's how I got out of it:
1) I downloaded the (unofficial) NAE tar from here: https://mega.co.nz/#!55cWBB6a!v1L7J2MfLMe-gjybYpNSbnDapIVaKtbEJngRQmBcsKU
2) I used Odin to flash it. It failed at the end of the system partition, but it appears to have succeeded for all of the other partitions.
3) I then used Heimdall to flash just the system partition again, and it succeeded. I rebooted, and all was well. You may try Odin a couple times to see if it succeeds, but I didn't have the patience.
Hopefully that will get you up and running again.
Hi everyone,
Thank you for all your responses. I was able to recover after finding muniz_ri post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=50345826&postcount=224 I used his Tar file and easily recovered from there. It rebooted twice while setting up but everything has been smooth sailing after that. Hopefully others can benefit from this information as it was kind of lost in that thread. Again, thank you to everyone for your help.

Soft brick!!!

Be sure to download the whole firmware, and not only modems.
Download your firmware at "sammobile.com" and then flash using PDA on odin!!
