I have a Verizon Note 3 on NC4 4.4.2 rooted and unlocked and I was trying to load Jazmine 2.0 ROM with S5 features. It got stuck on the Verizon logo and I was able to get it back to stock using Safestrap. Next I tried to load the NC2 MD file on Odin and since then it is bricked. Tried to download the NC4 md5 file on Odin but still no luck. I am a bit of a n00b so I could use some help from some XDA vets here! Have flashed into Stock Rom slot, slot 1 and 2 with stock backed up ROM and still no luck at all.

Did you take the NC4 OTA or were you on the NC2 leak? If you're on the NC2 leak you can use this guide here to go back to stock and reroot and install safestrap,etc. It's done by @droidstyle
Link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2483380
If you were on the NC4 OTA you can't downgrade to MJE. I'm not sure if you can just flash the NC4 tar file in Odin that Beans has provided here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=47400062&postcount=1
If you took the NC4 OTA, I'd see if someone else can chime in as I'm not sure if what I told you will work.
But as long as you boot and you can get into download mode you should be able to recover I think.
thread: [Q] HELP! Stuck on Verizon logo on NC4
Can get into download mode or recovery but it will not load safestrap for me. Trying to download the TAR file to try on Odin but nothing seems to get me past the Note 3 Custom screen after flashing a file.
Have you tried flashing just the Nc4 pit file ? If so then just flash NC4 TAR and start fresh with towel root and then safestrap 3.75

Yes the PIT file did not get me anywhere. loading the NC4 TAR right now. The biggest problem seems to be I cant get SAfestrap to work. I can boot into download mode or recovery but when I load something it doesnt load up right. Can figure out how to get into Safestrap now.

Hello guys, so i sold my AT&T Galaxy S4 to a friend an move up to Note 3.
After a couple of weeks he downloaded an app from Playstore and got into a Bootloop. I tol;d him i could help him as I have come through the same procedure again in the past.
I tried flashing the same rom the phone had by that time "I337UCUFMLD_OneClick" and i Got a FAIL.
Soon i realized the phone was bricked. I have been searhing for 5-6 hours today, tried to flash "ALL_ATT_I337UCUFNB1_I337ATTFNB1_505595_REV06_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar", all MK2 roms I Found here, and the only once which worked was flashing the "pit" file and flashing "I337_NC1_Stock_Recovery.tar". Now The phone has access to both Download & recovery mode but
i 'cant enable usb debugging cause i can't access the system.
If anyone has a clue, please help!
PS: Sry for the long description, can't post links.
You should be able to flash the all in one nb1 tar use Odin 3 v1.85 make sure you extract the rar and load the tar in the pda slot. Unless it's been updated to nc1 then you'll have to wait and hope someone releases a all in one for that.

Nope, i flashed only the stock recovery from NC1 cause it was the only one i could find
Att recently pushed the nc1 firmware if your friend unknowingly applied the nc1 update and it flashed a new bootloader then that would make the nb1 Odin fail. I think your best bet is going to the Samsung Rep at your local Best buy and they can flash the factory image.

It has been reported that the NC1 update did not incriment the Q-fuse count in aboot. If this is true, it should be safe to Odin NB1 back onto a phone that took the NC1 update without it causing failure..

After several tries i managed to flash it back to STOCK NB1 with no problem.
The only Problem some people may have is that if you try flashing with odin 3+ and then try 1.85, you will fail due to Windows instabilitty.
I recommend taking battary of the phone for 1 hour (may sound too much but worked for me) restart PC, and try flashing right away after your computer boots up!
I will propably make a guide out of this cause that brick was tricky as hell.
Thanks everyone for replying
PROBLEM SOLVED :good:
Okay so I've searched the forums and haven't found the answer to what I'm looking for quite yet. I'm not new to rooting, but new to the Galaxy Note 3. I just recently started getting prompted for the update to KK4.4.2 (I have the Verizon model and we all know how long they take to push out updates.) So I decided to flash the leaked de-oxed NC2 rom and after follow the instructions from here. I reboot and get stuck at a black screen. It boots no further and I have to pull the battery to get back to recovery.
Am I missing something, another step maybe? Is this an old process?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
Did you also flash the firmware package in odin?

Yes I also flashed the firmware through Odin. Does it matter which version of Odin I used?
Odin doesn't matter.
Root 4.3
Install safe strap.
Now you can update to the rooted 4.4 through odin.

Actually it looks as if this was caused by Odin 3.09. It doesn't seem to like the bootloader file for NC2 and for some reason doesn't load the entire boot portion of the file. Flashed with Odin 3.07 and booted no problem. Thanks for the input though.
I have a OTA Stock 4.4.2 Note 3. I rooted using Gehot's method and all was working fine. Safestrap, SU, Titanium. Decided to flash a rom today since installing the NC2 Kernel via Odin is the trick. DLed Odin 3.09 and the NC2 kernel but it failed. Now anything I do fails and I am stuck on the download screen telling me to use Software Upgrade program. Can i fix this??

I could be wrong but if you updated the with the OTA I think your NC4 upgrade will increment some counter that prevents you from rolling back. Even if you have root. Unless you were already on an nc2 rom...

I think the person that posted above your last post is right about not being able to downgrade since you're on the NC4 bootloader. Try booting into the stock recovery and doing a factory reset.
Get into recovery. And factory reset.
If that doesn't work.
Restore your back up in ss.
If you can't even get into safe strap..
You need to flash the appropriate. .Pit file to fix your phone.
The OTA thing is crucial... I really don't think you can roll back if you took the update OverTheAir

Had the same issue last night, rebooted to recovery factory reset & wipe cache then reboot
If it doesn't work on the first reboot try a couple more times mine booted on the third attempt
While you can't roll firmware back you can still odin the nc2 kernel on a nc4 build
I currently have a verizon note 3 sm-n900v andriod 4.42 baseband nc4 kernal 3.4 build nc4 and I have tried ever way possible to install a custom rom that has the bloatware removed. I have installed towelroot, installed safestrap many different versions with no luck. I have tried using the stock rom slot and get the error unable to mount system, good thing i created a backup which was able to be put back onto slot 1 and then rebooted and reinstalled back to factory with odin. My question is...is there a walkthru on exactly on doing the custom roms for nc4. The newest version 3.75 of safestrap doesnt seem to work with nc4 well either. Could someone tell me what versions of the kernals, and safestrap i should use so that i wont trip knox or brick the unit.
Install root done
Install busybox done
what should be next
install safestrap ..? What version for nc4
install a nc2 kernal...what one
I read the nc4/nc2 baseband kernal combo rom...and it says that it need the most current version of safestrap but you cant flash the stock rom on nc4 to get to that point...any help or walkthroughs would be very koool....IM SO TIRED OF VERIZON BLOAT WARE...
another thing is there a way to go back to a different modem driver...the baseband nc4 screwd the signals

Safestrap is it. Most custom roms work better in the stock slot. Safestrap-HLTEVZW-NC2-3.75-B04.apk is the latest and maybe last version as Hashcode has gotten a gig and won't be supporting it but maybe an heir will rise.

Yah but nc2 3.75 wont run right on nc4. It doesnt let you write the system. Do you have to flash the kernal to nc2 prior to installing the 3.75. Because in the write up it says to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2787627
Coming From Stock NC4 OTA
Step- 1 - Root Device with TowelRoot Here
Step- 2 - Install Busybox from play store and install busybox itself
Step- 3 - Install Hashcodes Latest Safestrap Here
Step- 4 - Boot into Safestrap Select Stock Slot
Step- 5 - Wipe Data Factory Reset The Stock Slot
Step- 6 - Flash nc4 deodex rom to the stock slot
Step- 7 - Reboot into Download mode From Safestrap
Step- 8 - Flash NC2 Kernel Package Here
Step- 9 - You will Boot into a Stock Deodex rom with Root, Busybox, Init.d, Selinux Permissive, Insecure Modules!!
my issue is that if i have nc4 baseband do i put on nc2 kernal before or after safestrap...and do you use odin to flash it or safestrap in download mode?

Okay, we'll have to figure out what the problem might be because there are tons of people on NC4 running that version of safestrap. It's definately not that version of safestrap, let me look and see what I can find.
Just to make sure you're on B04 and not B03?

Did you flash the NC2 kernel in Odin with your phone in download mode? Most roms won't boot without it.

Do i have to run the nc2 kernal on the nc4 baseband...and do i flash the nc2 kernal before or after I install root busybox safestrap install rom.
I had never installed nc2...so nc2 kernal is required and nc4 kernal will not work..? Or will nc4 work if i use b04. and just to rehash you can install nc2 kernal on a nc4 baseband correct? Also if I do either of those...am i still stuck with the nc4 modem that has the horrible signal or is there a way to fix that with a different modem.
Sorry im kind of all over the place...i really appreciate your help
I have installed
Stock nc4
Root
Busybox
safestrapb04
It boots to the custom where i can choose the slots or stock rom
I have not installed nc2 kernal via download mode yet...does that need to be done before i install a rom?

Flash the kernel after the rom is flashed. In safestrap after flashing rom reboot to download mode and flash the the NC2 kernel. It'll work with every rom except Jamine 2.3 I believe.

Does it matter what modem i choose...can i choose the nc2 modem running the nc2 firmaware on a nc4 bootloader? Also if i have a stock/ota nc4 baseband/bootloader does it matter if i choose retail or odin modems

You can run whatever modem, it all depend on your location. I'm on NC2 leak with the NC4 modem as for me NC2 was terrible. Some people are on NC4 with the MJE modem. I wouldn't just jump from modem to modem. Give it at least a day of use before you decide to change. But most people are running MJE, NC2 or NC4.

If you took the NC4 ota you can only use the NC4 tar to return your phone to stock. Those who took the NC2 leak and actually downgrade all the way back to 4.3 Jellybean for return purposes.
The modems are from lowest to highest. When it comes to the modems I'd only use MJE - The last jellybean modem, NC2 - the leak modem, NC4 modem the most current.
I was on MK2 rooted, wanting to upgrade to NC1 via Safestrap method. Something went wrong after I wiped everything except EXSD in Safestrap recovery. The SGS4 rebooted and is now stuck in a softbrick. I can get into download mode and stock recovery, however, I cannot bring my phone back to life. I've tried flashing stock firmware with ODIN, sammobile only has MDL and MDB -- neither of these work for me. I have spent the past few hours reading posts and have not found a solution.
any help is greatly appreciated!
Since you're on a newer version you aren't able to downgrade it to MDL or MDB, if you download the MK2 tar file from here you may be able to get it back.
