Thanks, but the multifile service FW is necessary to me. G900F isn't loaded when using an one-file FW
The firmware consisting of files -Pit; BL;PDA;CSC;Modem is necessary to me.

I need a FW used by Samsung service when phone is not booting. It consists of several parts - PIT-file, Bootloader, PDA, CSC and Modem.

LMAO, mate the firmware files are in zip, extract them you will get .tar file which contains all those files. Every firmware comes with these or else phone wont boot at all....

The confusion is because you didn't clearly explain what you are looking for. "Multifile".. is more than a little ambiguous without a context or elaboration. Or you can try blaming it on the emoticon. Emoticons are always bad.
Anyway, you are apparently looking for Odin formatted components e.g. bootloader, modem, etc, rather than the complete tar firmware image. Most firmware repositories have the complete firmware which contains all of the components. To obtain the separate items, you really need to pull them from the full firmware image and repackage (tar) them. Samsung does package the components separately, but AFAIK only for internal use. I'm not aware of Samsung distributing or providing end user links to the components.
If you search the forum, you will sometimes find that someone has done the work for you. e.g. if you had a 900T phone, this thread would be useful to you:
[Stock Collection] Kernels, Modems, Firmware, Stock Tars[Current: NG3]
As to PIT files, note that a PIT (partition information) is unique to a model, ROM size and carrier. So if you have a 900F phone, 16 GB, carrier x.. that PIT file is different than a 900F /32 GB /carrier x or 900F /16 GB /carrier y PIT file.
Unless you are changing carriers or have partition corruption, you can simply extract a copy of the PIT file from your own phone. Have a look at this thread.

Thanks for your response!
The matter is i`m looking for FACTORY FW, but not for HOME.
In a firmware there is cache.img or cache.img.ext4 in which there is / recovery/command where key difference of firmwares of HOME from FACTORY is shown.
command for factory:
- update_package=CACHE:recovery/sec_csc.zip
- carry_out=csc_factory
- wipe_data
command for a normal firmware:
- update_package=CACHE:recovery/sec_csc.zip
- carry_out=csc_home
- wipe_cache
That as for division of an one-file firmware into components it is clear and I did it many times.
At a forum I recently, but Samsung am engaged in devices long ago.
If you are lucky, an employee may be able to provide the files you seek. But that is hardly something that you can rely upon.
As far as I know most files intended for use by Samsung technicians are not generally released to the public. So they will be difficult to find and you should do an exhaustive keyword search on Google, et al.
Or buy your local service technician a drink.

Hey all,
I bought my GNote off of Amazon (I live in the States), and it's been running great. I've been waiting for the most recent update to push to my phone, but it hasn't rolled out yet. So I've been doing a lot of searching to try to figure out where my phone actually came from. Pulling CSC using *#1234# gives me N7000UUBKK2. I can't find reference to that anywhere. When I run Kies or dial *#272*IMEI#, I get the following three options, which I've been able to identify.
VNO (selected) = Venezuela
TDR = DOMINICAN REP.
TTT = Trinidad & Tobago
Anyway, I bring this up because I can't seem to find this in Dr.Ketan's huge list of Stock roms (or any roms from those countries at all, though I am running 2.3.6). Does anyone know more about my rom, or when I can expect to get the newest update that enables the 1-handed keyboard?
@projectrally --- this is something I have not come across from anywhere myself...
Maybe, you be able to find out if you do research through samfirmware.com
you know the one i am talking about ?
There was a UBKK8 firmware floating around the DEV subforum a couple days ago... (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1478060)
I think "UB" is Brazil, and being that mine started with the same firmware, I'd say that you purchased the "samsung galaxy note gt-n7000 unlocked cellphone -- US Warranty (blue)" that's actually sold by amazon directly (not a 3rd party.)
I'm curious why would you want to keep the UB firmware? There are much more recent firmware versions for other regions, and they'll all work on your phone. I'm currently running a XXLA4 firmware with no problems.
If there is an issue where I need to send this back, I can easily put a UBKK1 firmware back on the phone.
Take care
Gary

I purchased from Amazon through a 3rd party seller called Worldwide Imports.
I don't really want to keep the UB firmware, but I've got a mac and really zero friends with PCs that I can use to reflash this thing. Even at work we've got all Macs. I tried installing a wineskinned version of Odin, but it couldn't find my phone via USB, so that didn't work. I've read a lot about heimdall and most of it's bad. I'm new to Android, and I'd rather go with a tried and true method (i.e. Odin on Windows) for my first crack at flashing a new rom.
Eventually I'll track down somebody with a windows machine to do this update, but it might take me a while. In the meantime, I'm sort of stuck with what I've got, so I was just wondering what info there is out there on the build.
I have the same build. I bought mine from expansys last week. I plan on keeping the rom as is and wait for the ICS upgrade. Really enjoying the phone. Everyone notices it.

Gary,
I've got a problem. Maybe you can help. I borrowed a friend's windows laptop and I've upgraded to XXLA4 using the following method...
- Root before reflash using zergrush
- downloaded and extracted zip file for XXLA4 to tar.md5 file
- flashed using mobile odin pro.
The result is that I get a successful update, but I get the "null" problem when typing. People have said that I need to update the CSC file by manually pointing the Cache file at the new CSC file, but I don't have a new CSC file to point to. When I unzipped the XXLA4 file that I downloaded, it was a single .tar.md5 file, which is the file I used to flash. If I put that same file in the Cache field of mobile odin (and don't change any other values) and then flash again, I still get the null error.
So Dr. Ketan says to use the CSC file, but I don't have a CSC file. If I extract the .tar.md5 file again, I get the following five files:
cache.img
factoryfs.img
hidden.img
modem.bin
zImage
Is one of those the file I should be using in mobile odin in the Cache field? Should I clear the cache first?
For now, I just went back and used PC Odin and flashed the KL1 version of XXLA4 without root. I'll keep searching and see what I can sort out. This would be easier if I didn't have to borrow a Windows machine to do this...

Do you have Samsung Galaxy S III GT-I9300 International with Multi-CSC? Have you installed another stock ROM for another region and met thereafter a problem that Kies is no more supporting firmware update?
Here is a comprehensive guide on how to change your stock ROM of region "X" to a stock ROM of region "Y".
Samsung has put CSC codes to meet certain regions where each firmware file is made for that specific region, where it refers to basic configurations and carrier settings. Your device comes with a specific CSC for your region. If you install another ROM file signed for another CSC, you might face a problem.
Here is the solution.
DISCLAIMER: THIS METHOD HAS BEEN APPLIED UPON OWN RISK, SELF EXPERIENCE AND DIFFERENT TRIAL AND ERROR BASIS, WITH REFERENCE TO VARIOUS WEBSITES. THE METHOD WILL WIPE YOUR DATA. BE CAREFUL, AND TAKE A BACKUP BEFORE YOU APPLY. YES, BE CAREFUL, IT WILL WIPE YOUR DATA! APPLY UPON YOUR OWN RISK.
1- Download any firmware file from www.sammobile.com for Samsung Galaxy S III. For example, download the one for UAE (United Arab Emirates) with its CSC being "XSG".
2- Open your dial pad, and type "*#06#" to check for your IMEI code. Write down the IMEI. (Or simply bring your Galaxy S III box and take the IMEI from there).
3- In the dial pad, dial "*#272*YOUR_DEVICE_IMEI#".
4- A window will appear showing your current CSC, and has a list of various available CSCs to different regions.
5- Choose "XSG" from the list to meet the one of the ROM you downloaded.

NOTE: THIS PROCESS WIPES YOUR DATA, SO BE CAREFUL, AND TAKE A BACKUP, AND APPLY UPON YOUR RISK.
Now, flash your ROM using the classical Odin3 method (Search the forum for how to flash).
Good luck

.....That is not at all correct and this post is a total waste of time .
Further more two hours after this post the OP has to ask how to get out of a boot loop .

Having the fact I went into a boot loop does not mean the method is bad or waste of time. It is hardware failure of my device. Period.
Period your how to post is poor and a bad repetition of stuff already sticked period .
jje
Period
I figured that out later. Anyways, don't you have any idea how to fix my problem?
Also want to add that JJE is right, there is a thread with akl this information in.
Plus on the Stock Firmware Rom thread there is a Step by Step guide on how to flash it to your device.
And finally, having an attitude towards somebody who has commented on your thread isnt a good way to get other users commenting. Other users will cone across this thread, see your attitude towards another commenting user, and will go else where so they dont get spoken to in the same manner.
Not having a go Im just suggesting a different approach towards users may be better off.

Hi,
i got a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 with Android 4.3 currently installed.
I would like to update it to 4.4.2 but i have several questions before i want to take the risk of updating the device.
As a german user i downloaded this firmware file from sammobile.com:
N9005XXUENB4_N9005DBTENB1_N9005XXUENB1_HOME.tar.md5
This should be the german unbranded 4.4.2 firmware file for the Note 3 N9005.
After reading a few tutorials i saw some people who have problems while flashing this Firmware, because of that i hope you can help me here.
First question:
In Odin i can select the "Phone Bootloader Update", some people are saying i have to select this or the device or it won't work properly after the flash.
Do i have to select this and what happens when i do it?
Second question:
A lot of people also have problems while flashing this firmware because of a missing .pit file (-> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2664461)
So do I have to select an .pit file or not?
I really, really hope you can help me with that because Google couldn't help me at all so far.

I am actually trying to do the very same thing
The thing is: if you didn't already get an update OTA / via kies (since samsung rolled out kitkat in germany a few days ago) chances are, you are not having a german phone, like myself.
so please enter *#1234# into the dialer app and post the results
also, it would be nice to know your country/product code: if you happen to have the box the phone came in, check the label where your imei and gsm frequencies are mentioned.
There, you'll find a string like "SM-N9005ZKEROM" which (in my case) means a black note 3 from romania
or hook it up with kies and tell the last three characters between the brackets in your firmware version
to your first question: uncheck it. AFAIK, if it is set, the firmware will flash a new bootloader onto your device, and in most cases you don't want that, it could mess your phone up badly. correct me if i'm wrong.
Back to the rom, which also addresses you 2nd question:
The actual problem with simply flashing the DBT rom is that the EU devices happen to be partitioned differently from the german ones, so odin will fail if you have a device with an uncompatible CSC/Product code (e.g. an east-european device), which in turn may or may not trigger knox and/or void your warranty.
i currently try to get more information on that topic.
nevertheless, pocketpc.ch provides a tutorial which mentions flashing DBT firmware along with a custom pit file, which may or may not void your warranty, but doesn't seem to trigger knox (pm me for a link or google it yourself: "Flashen der DBT-FW auf EU-Geräte")
Thank you very much for your detailed answer, as far as i know i will receive the device tomorrow. (Amazon DE order)
I will post the details as soon as i have access to them!
Hello Again
I created a thread about my planning to update my i9505 (CM11 / XXUFNC4) to CM13 with Heimdal for the firmware flashing and TWRP for the CM flashing.
I am getting the relevant files prepared now and I have some additional questions
1. I started by getting XXUHO2J from Sammobile. It is 1.5GB in size. It has yet to complete downloading due to the size but does anyone know what makes it so much bigger than modem firmware found here which the combined download is only 61MB.
2. Sammobile has firmware broken down by country / provider (though many have the same name) while the XDA page just seems to have a generic firmware. Are the XXUHO2J on sammobile for different country / provider different or just the same?
3. Is it better to do with Sammobile firmware or the XDA ones
edit:
4. How does the bootloader on the xda link differ from TWRP which if I understand is a bootloader?

1. You're downloading the whole firmware, not just the modem and bootloader.
2. They're the same.
3. They're the same.
4. TWRP is a recovery. The bootloader is something else, it tells the phone what to code to run before the actual boot. TWRP only modifies the bootloader.

Only the country code differs. Which may affect somethings, but nothing drastic.
A new Odin is available, which can handle the new compression of the S8/S8+ Oreo files (LZ4)

is it modified or Samsung updated?
Yes, I already made a thread for it. You should check before posting.

Can unbrick my smartphone?
Hello,
I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 which got brick in a couple of weeks earlier. Now, I need to unbrick the device but I have no idea about how to find the device build number to download the correct firmware file.
I was log into SamMobile website and tried to find the correct one but with the device model number, it became a somewhat hard process because it displays multiple versions.
Please help me, someone, to find the correct firmware file to unbrick my device.

Go to setting then about then find your model number...Or find it on Mobile Box or back of your Mobile phone or Press nd hold power+volume down until download mode appears then in download mode check your model number.
After finding model number go to Sammobile or Updato then enter model number and then download acc to your carrier or country you are living.
Best of luck
After i download the stock, image, do i need to flash everything inside or just BL n CP? if i flash AP i will lose my TWRP yer?
