So what if Odin doesnt work? what do you do to get your phone back operational? Ive tried 4 different md5 and tar files, the same pit file and still nothing. it fails either at recovey section or in the factoryrs section. is it time to get a new phone?
No, it's time to use a non-stock USB cable (try first, 85% of the time this is the problem) and/or a different USB port or PC.
ive tried 5 cables total. 3 didnt even register with pc something was plugged in. the other 2 work but they both share the same problem.

Sounds like most of them are bad - try a known-good one. Definitely try other USB ports, and then another PC. Also, drivers - reinstall them.
Is your phone sponged (stuck at Samsung) or just need to get back to stock?

its shows the samsung logo and that is all. when trying to get into the recovery, it shows a phone - exlamation mark - and a computer. i figure Odin is the only thig i can do to respolve this at this point.

So it goes into download mode but Odin doesn't recognize it...and you tried 5 cables and 3 PCs and all of their ports. You have also tried connecting without a battery, connecting to computer with Odin up and boot into download mode. No COM port shows up in Odin and no driver install errors on the computer. Still sounds like a bad cable or bad port on the phone.

NO NO NO. i think you understood me wrong. It goes to download mode and Odin does recognize it. i've tried 5 cables, only 2 of the 5 cables work. ive tried it on 2 pc's (one xp and the other vista) and havetried all the ports on both computers. vista wont see it period. xp sees it but fails during the process. so to my knowledge, ive tried everything.

So you got 1 set of everything that works but it fails in the process. Have you tried another tar? You are using a tar right, if it says md5 at the end, remove that extension. Only autoreboot checked at top, got the tar in the PDA box and the pit in the PIT box?

I didnt think to remove the md5 at the end. could be the problem. ironically, Odin recognizes the file and does a check for it. (im using odin3 v 1.0 and v 1.7). but it halts at the recovery screen. i shall try again tonight without the md5 as that seems to be the only thing i didnt do. everything else you mention has been set. ive tried 3 diff files. one for eco3, one for stock, and another for eb13 (i think). and none of them work.

On my phone or I would dig up the link but they do a good job of explaining how in the thread that...well...tells you how to do it.
Edit... sorry I see you failed mid odin. This happens to me so frequently I don't even know what to say. I would keep trying. I think eventually I would try different files in different odin sections...different odins...all sorts of crap. Persistance was the key

So yesterday when AT&T announced 50% off of smartphones I was pretty dumbfounded since I got a brand new S4 the day before. But the day I got it I rooted it and did all the other stuff. I will return my S4 for a new one but it's impossible for me to unroot. Everything I've done doesn't seem to work. I used Odin but it stops at the "Get PIT for mapping" stage. I tried deleting SuperSU but that didn't work. It made things worse because it said I'm not rooted but I still am. Now I can't even go to recovery. And I can't even connect to Kies. Can anyone help me unroot my device or help me be able to return my device when it's rooted?

I would think the tools section of Kies will have an option that will work. Connection trouble shoot first then emergency recovery. If your phone boots, you should be able to reset it to out of the box state.
If it's still rooted, try triangle away app.
If you go to settings, more, about device, build number, then tap on build number repeatedly it will restore developer options, if it's not shown now. From there you can enable or disable USB debugging. That might help with Odin. Wish I had more answers for ya.
Also try settings, accounts, backup and reset, factory data reset.

Do you know how to enter the download mode? If so then odin should recognize it. I think it's "hold the power button, down volume, and home button" till it instructs you to let got and hit the up volume button. The connect it to the pc for odin.

Is your phone a US AT&T model I337? There is a stock recovery rom in this forum somewhere, it's a zip file when extracted it will have a tar.MD5 file for use with odin. Or maybe you should use the PDA selection in odin, and uncheck the reboot box.

Why don't you just call cs and get credit for the difference instead of returning it. You're going to get another s4 anyways.

Everyone I now know what I really want to do. I want to flash the stock ROM. But this is impossible with http://i.imgur.com/z8fnjRd.png "Get PIT for mapping" is stopping me, which is very frustrating.
Just throwing out some ideas. Try a different cable if you got another one. Try plugging into a usb port in back of computer. You could try to re download the file again using a different mirror. Could just be a bad download. Anyways good luck.

But Kies cannot connect to my device
Traded my Mega for a S4 today
Love it
I rooted it, installed TWRP. I have i337m from Rogers. All was well.
I downloaded a Google Edition 4.3 Rom and went into TWRP, Wiped Cache/Dalvik/Data, and Formatted Data
I then went back, installed the Rom.zip
Wiped cache/dalvik
Rebooted.
My phone now goes directly to Odin Mood. Seems as if something partition wise happened.
UPDATE:
I attempted to flash via odin everything back to stock, it made it 1/2 way and got an error. Now I can't do anything, phone just boots to the screen attached. Odin doesnt detect phone, Kies doesn't detect phone.
Am I screwed? I can't believe this, I want to cry. Never have I had issues like this before!!!
Which TWRP version
Did you do the "Format Data" button where you had to select "Yes". If so you lost everything
Get twrp 2.5.0.2 if you get the chance
I never used Odin, so not much help there
Also, I always wipe only Data/System/Caches 2x and have no issues. I do it before flashing any rom/version update etc
I know not much help here. But, maybe an idea on what went wrong--
Good Luck
Yes - Shoot
I see the issue. I was following the guide and it states to do this with CWM, I was thinking I was reading the instructions for TWRP. I had 2.6.3.0 (whatever the newest one is)
I'm downloading the firmware now - will try Odin
You gotta use Odin to restore the firmware, but you can't use kies if you're going custom. You can also use Philz recovery for that. That's what I had and it worked great. It's based off CWM and has touch.

So I attempted to flash Via Odin 3.0.7 (rogers firmware) and about 1/2 way through something Error'd and now my phone will not do anything but load the following screen attached.
Download mode or recovery does not load. Kies does not detect it. I can't get Odin to detect it either.
Did I screw myself over?
So depressed over this. I just got the phone.
That screen is another form of download mode. If you plug it into Odin at this point will Odin recognize it?

I have a i337M Canadian phone
And as mentioned, phone will not go into Download mode. I've tried a dozen times to get it into the regular download mode as always, does not work. It just boots to this screenshot almost instantly after hitting the power button.
I've flashed with Odin a dozen times previously with S3 and Note 2 in the past, never any issues.
How could TWRP Format Data cause all this to happen?

I couldn't get Odin to detect the phone on this screen though.
Odin detected the phone fine when I could get the to regular download mode screen before. Now I can't get to this screen, only what's attached in the screenshot, and I couldn't get Odin to detect it any longer last night.
Can a cable cause this? I am not using the Cable that came with the phone - That wasn't included when I bought it. I'm using a Sony Cable from a Xperia T I used to own.
Why did the Odin flash fail to begin with?

It's very possible it's the cable. Odin is very finicky on the cable, usb ports, and even computer you use. It works great on my lap top but I can't get it to work on my pc. Do you know anyone who has an s4 and you could borrow their cable. If you can boot into download you are not bricked and can get Odin to fix your phone. It may just take some trial and error. I've also had Odin fail a number of times and then decide to finally work for whatever reason so keep working at it.

I've always used firmware from sammobile.com

One other, use the usb ports in the back of your computer, not the front and no usb hub.

Ive already tried changing USB ports.. I dont have Kies installed in the first place.. I'll try repeating the procedure on a different system though..
i certainly hope it is not a hardware failure.. i literally slept with the phone on charge and woke up to a dead phone.. the phone boots up into the bootloop.. the recovery mode ends in the bootloop as well.. only the download mode ends up in the correct "downloading.. do no turn off target" screen.. and odin detects the phone just fine.. but upgrading any firmware via odin gets stuck on the "initialization" step.. i can answer more questions if required.. at this point i dont care which ROM works for my phone.. or if i lose data.. i just wanna revive my phone..

Bro's, gotta start somewhere, right!
The fact that you're phones are boot looping is actually a good sign - it means that they're not totally useless but salvageable.
Question: Are you able to boot into your custom recoveries, e.g. TWRP? If yes, please reply.
If no, kindly uninstall your old samsung driver, reboot pc, install new driver, put your phone into "Download mode", connect phone to pc, run Odin & hope for the best! If you can get passed this step, then it's smooth sailing...

I've downloaded the right file for the right model SM-N910C and at the end of the flash i just get fail, i flash on ap. Tried all the usb sockets on my computer, noting changed. When i try to power up the phone it says: " Firmware update encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again." Tried 2 different roms and still nothing. Please help, i really need the phone asap

Where did you download firmware from?
Which did you take (name it)?
Was it multipart or single part ROM?
(probably single as you only named AP slot)
Which Odin version used?

Have you searched that forum?
As you own an Exynos phone while mine is Snapdragon I might not be able to help more.

@rafayet1159 you didn't say if flashing multiple part stock doesn't work either.
How do you define bricked?

KIES installed or just SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones?
If the device manager said unrecognize usb then try to download the driver from Samsung Open Source. If it isn't working, try another cable (you can borrow it from one of ur friends)

@rafayet1159 checked USB port on device?
Cleaned contacts?
Even if charging is working, data contacts can by dirty.
Different PC not working either?

As long as you can't access download mode I don't see a chance.
Perhaps other can help better if you post your question in the special Note4 Exynos forum.
