fw issue but how did the shop did it? - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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:

How to flashback to branded firmware?

hey guys ive been told you cannot go back to older firmwares (dunno whether that counts branded ones like 02)
but is there any way around it? surely there must be a way?
im guessing seen as 02 had there hands on the software for so long they managed to fix the battery drain...
cheers

someone must of done it?
I think you can do this with Odin!
You just have to download the firmware you want from http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/ and flash it with Odin. BUT you PROBABLY WILL trigger Knox 0x1!

if you use a stock FW no knox trigger. easiest way would be flash mk2 with the o2uk csc ( im not sure it exists)
then factory reset

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.
