Im running mj7 now. Updated to mk2 a few days ago then downgraded and its fine. Apparently you cant go to a firmware version with a lower bootloader, but i have yet to try.

yes i have just downgraded now from btu mk2(serious battery issues) to my original 02 branded MJ7

Yup you can downgrade from MK to MJ7 as MJ7 is deemed a safe fall back option in Samsung's eyes. Done it myself a couple of times.

The latest available firmware for XSI is ENC2 (KitKat 4.4.2).
Go to Menu --> 'Firmware Browser...' to get the download link for this firmware, then flash it via Odin.

This will happen if ur device status is modified.
U can check it on download mode.
I post this somewhere but I forgot where
Happened to few of my friends owning note 3 export europe set (bought in singapore). But no big issue, since I can flash stock through odin.

he have the note 3 with xsi not sin

Firmware OTA updates depends on region. Like in US it 1st releases and after few time in other countries one by one due to localization. Also it depends on career those have taken locked version under contract, like Verizon released the 4.4 in May where I got it many month back, even another latest firmware update recently.
So check google news, for your region or check other phones in your region. If they provides you will definitely get it. If others got it then contact Samsung.

I know. But shld not be a problem mate.
Mine is BTU. I flashed so many region alrd : DBT, XSI, SIN and BTU itself.
All run well.
Since I m flashing with odin, I don't really care abt region.
Worst case (if happen, so far never), just flash csc of ur own region.

Yes mate. Pain in the ass when u wipe to clean.
OTA got bad habit. Happened. To 2 of my friends already. They do OTA, enjoying it with data still intact. One day, all of sudden phone freeze, reboot, auto wipe. Puff, all gone.
Another one more also same. Freeze, never reboot auto, just stay freezing, phone very hot, unplug battery, boot and stuck at Samsung logo. Finally factory reset as well. Both can't save their data.
This happened. To my friends who do OTA from 4.3 to 4.4.2 but dun want to wipe.

well,
you don't need to go back to the NC3 firmware if you just want to unroot it.
you can just flash back the original firmware ND3 that you have, the root will be gone
because, from my experienced, what you upgrade to ND series, hardly possible for you to downgrade to NC series, due to its bootloader.

That's where I looked.
But I was not sure which one is right.
Sweden - VDS
or
Sweden - 3 is not the one I should have.
or
Nordic countries - NEE.
I think it's the last thing that is right.
Thanks for your time!

Next question!
I want to get rid of everything that existed on the device and start from scratch.
Is there some kind of formatting that removes just about everything and it may be that from the factory?

After I flash the stock ROM it wont turn wifi on. its been stopped by knox!??
Why and how to fix?

Ok. I try to see if that works!

fw issue but how did the shop did it?

I have a Note3 that it won't update from JB to KK via OTA so I downloaded the kitkat ROM and tried to install it via odin..as odin updating I got a red FAILED on the top left then I kept trying I got the error attached here. I gave up and I took it to a local shop and he got to working fine but he said he didn't use odin he used a box something to fix it? for my future reference is there is a way to fix my issue in a different way?
I used the below ROM:
