-then I couldnt go to system, recovery just to download mode so I flashed TWRP.
(I tried another stock rom, odin, PC but always same problem.)
-then i tried get back CM 10.1.3 via TWRP and it flashed and work without problem.
-then I tried flash omega rom via TWRP and it flashed without problem but booting is very slow and during the logo Samsung it takes about 10mins to boot into system and device is very hot.
-Everything about Kies and antivirus is off.
-Using just original USB cable.
-what says download mode:

leaked official version of 4.4.2
Why did i overlook that cyanogenmod recovery isnt compatible with 4.4.2 yet?

so i guess its not the pitt file?
is anything damaged? or do i have a faulty rom combo?

so your saying basicly that i should just try to reflash cyanogenmod? do you have a link to the version i can use. just to make sure i use the right one and don't screw it up more..
thanks for your help already btw.
I downloaded the newest CM i can find? CM 11-20140327? also i have the newest gapps i can find.. though its 20130813.
but how do i flash the recovery menu?
NVM i gave you a lot of false information< i had the firmware fault while installing clockworkmod recovery menu< not cyanogen< both with C im sorry.. i needed a recovery menu to install cyanogen. thats why i had problems.. i tried flashing to get the recovery menu and that failed. that gave the issues.. not cyanogen
Need to go puppy training with my dog< back in an hour or so

[Q] Back to stock or not, stock ROM failure.

Hi All, I think I have read everything and tried all methods and I have now run out of ideas. Hoping it's something simple i'm missing.
So my I9505 has been rooted for some time and I would now like to return to stock to give the phone to my mother-in-law.
I am able to access twrp custom recovery and stock recovery modes, I'm able to flash custom rome using twrp. However I don't seem to be able to flash a stock rom using the method below:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2265477&highlight=complete(write)+operation+failed
My phone is currently up and running in the following state:
Android Version: 4.4.2
BaseBand Version: I9505XXUFNAD
Kernel Version: 3.4.0.2091210 [email protected] 1
Build Number: Echoe_Illusion_KOT49H.I9505XXUGNG2
SE for Android Status: Enforcing SEPF_GT-I9509_4.4.2_0018
Secure boot status: Type: Samsung
Security software version: MDFF v1.0 Release 2
Every time I try the odin method above to install stock ROM i get to Complete Write Operation Failed.
I have tried different odin versions, different machines, different cables.
The two ROMs I have tried to flash are:
I9505XXUEMK9_I9505EVREMK1_I9505XXUEMK9_HOME.tar.md5
I9505XXUFNB9_I9505BTUFNE1_I9505XXUFNB9_HOME.tar.md5
Any ideas please
Hopefully something simple I'm doing wrong.

Might be the file u downloaded be corrupt
Try downloading again then wipe dalvik cache and flash.

Thanks, I have done this several times. Still nothing, very frustrating and time consuming

Post the complete Odin log.
Try only 4.4.2 roms and nothing below that.

Pick one of the latest and try again.

It just looks like a standard Odin error.
- Make sure Kies is not running in the background
- Different cable
- Different pc

Hooray!!!! Well I tried another PC, and for some reason this time it has worked. Nothing different about the three machines. Same software, same ROMs, same process. Two wouldn't work, one did.
Thanks again for pushing me to try another machine.

[Q] Newbie Helping : Note 3 soft bricked

Evening all ,
Hopefully someone here can help , Im somewhat of a newbie to this but was currently running Xnote Rom on 4.3 , I tried to upgrade to N9005XXUGNG1 following steps read on a well known website.
I received a "invalid ext4 image" error from odin and now stuck in a soft brick state where i can only access download mode. I am currently trying to get out of this back to a stock phone. I live in the UK and am on EE 4G.
Thanks in advance

hmm..
try this..
take battery out and put it back in after 30 seconds.. then boot to download mode..
use odin to flash the latest gng1 rom..make sure to tick update bootloader in odin

take another stock ROM, you partition sizes dont seem to match to the rom u want to flash. i suggest to use the latest BTU Android 4.4.2 rom ( sammobile.com/firmware )

ODIN : INVALID EXT4 IMAGE
Hope this helps ... And thanks for trying to help :cyclops:

Sometimes I get the android man and others I get a phone with a warning symbol and a pc saying " Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again".

Help flashing stock firmware

I am a noob at this, so pardon me for my ignorance. After unrooting my Note 3 i am unable to update my firmware OTA or with Kies, even after factory resetting it did not work. After doing some research i learned that i have to flash my phone with stock firmware using odin(in order to get my phone back to normal). Do i have to flash the original firmware that my phone came with, or can i just flash it with the most up to date stock firmware that i want?

You can flash the same build fw or the latest. Install 'samsung phone info' app to check your csc. You can even use the app to download the fw. But in case downloading takes forever to complete, you may use 'samsung firmware downloader'. It's a windows utility tool to download fw from sammobile.
