[Q] Stuck in ODIN mode - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have the following problem and no matter what I try I can't get it to boot normaly.
The device is a SM-N9006 which was rooted with RDLV and MJ3 firmware. I put echoe rom on it and it was working fine.
A few days ago I wanted to update the firmware, so I downloaded the new echoe rom which installed through cwm nicely but after booting into it it kept hanging (not responding). Even the initial configuration had to be done in 4-5 parts because of the restarts that needed to bring it back to life.
So I decided to Flash a Stock firmware on it. Used N9006ZCUENF3_N9006CHNENF3_CHN in Odin, After restart the phone surprised me with the message:
Could not do normal boot.
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: SM-N9006
CURRENT BINARY: Custom
SYSTEM STATUS: Custom
REACTIVATION LOCK: OFF
KNOX KERNEL LOCK: 0x0
KNOX WARRANTY VOID: 0x1
QUALCOMM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE (CSB)
RP SWREV: S1, T1, R1, A2, P1
WRITE PROTECTION: Enable
At this time also didnt work so whatever I tried to boot I ended up at this message. Tried to install several CWM versions which didnt help but after installing Philz Recovery, I could get into recovery but still no luck in booting normaly.
Tried flashing N9005 firmwares which failed in Odin (which worked before).
The only stock firmwares I can use now are the N9006 ones but no matter which one I try nothing lets me boot normaly.
Tried the Download Mode entry - Cancel method, the battery, SIM takeout method. Did several data, cache, dalvik deletion, nothing helps.
Please help what should I do?

[Q] Could not do normal boot!!!

My phone was heating up really bad and the battery only charged up to 84% so I pulled out the battery to cool it up a bit and I put the battery back on and it boots into download mode and it says "Could not do normal boot" at the top...
My phone was rooted and flashed with X-Note rom. I flashed it few months ago and it was working extremely fine. I tried to install stock rom N9005XXUDMJ7 with Odin since I was already in download mode, but the Odin keeps showing "FAIL'... basically I can't install stock rom or I can't turn my phone on...
Anyone know what to do ?

Is the x-note rom based on KK? If so you will need to flash a KK rom, not JB...

That seems to be a slightly bigger failure in the flash memory
Try to write in Odin the corresponding original stock a few times. If that fails read those threads where it is described ow to do a full flash erase/repartition.
Have you tried to boot into safe mode ?
This probably wont help but try it anyway:
Power off phone.
Power on, keep pressing the power button for 5 seconds after the phone turns on, hold volume down and release the power button.
Hold volume down till boot process conpleted.
good luck !

[Q] cannot open Recovery mode screen / cannot root

I tried to root my Note 3 SM-N900W8 with Odin 3.07. When ODIN showed passed, I removed the cable but the phone was stuck at keep rebooting showing:
RECOVERY BOOTING...
RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING
It never showed Set Warranty Bit: recovery
I had to remove the battery to stop the rebooting. After I turned on the phone at the Download Mode page, it shows the following:
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: SM-N900W8
CURRENT BINARY: Custom
SYSTEM STATUS: Custom
REACTIVATION LOCK: OFF

WRITE PROTECTION: Enable
UDC START
When I tested the phone with Root Checker whether it's rooted. The app said it is not rooted.
I tried to run ODIN to root the phone again and I ran into the same rebooting problem again.
I also cannot open the Recovery Mode screen (Volume up + Menu + power). The phone would show RECOVERY BOOTING...
RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING but nothing happens after.
If anyone knows how to fix and root the phone, please kindly let me know.
Weird..double check if the rooting file(the 1 u downloaded frm chainfire) is for sm-n900w8 only..

I would Odin flash a recovery and format everything on the phone before attempting to odin flash official firmware.
Make sure you are flashing the latest 4.4 that your carrier has released.

Just flash a 4.4.2 stock rom true Odin that is for you device.

i9506 S4 Unable to recover, stuck in DL Odin mode

Hi. Samsung Galaxy S4 GT-i9506. Tried to root/install Lollipop 5.0.1 (I had 4.2.2 KitKat).
So everything failed miserably. As it stands now, I can ONLY enter download mode with the phone and in ODIN MODE. I can connect phone to PC and use odin on PC. Can NOT enter recovery mode, it fails and shuts down the device. Only download mode through vol.down+home+power button.
I just want to be able to use my phone, so can someone explain step-by-step what I need to do to get my phone working again? Full reset or anything like that doesn't matter, I have backup, I just want the phone to work again.
It says on the screen (Downloading... Do not turn off target!!) with an android logo.

Stuck in Downloading Mode (Could not do normal boot) ODIN Mode: (High Speed) 0/3 Knox

I tried downloading at least 10 different firmwares from the latest to the original 5.1.1 that was installed on the phone. Either odin freezes or they are corrupted. Is there any hope?
THe short story: Root was a success. Tried to open snapchat, read the whole story on that. Decided lets get the xposed framework. After going through the hassels TWRP and CWM wouldn't let me flash (ready for the stupidness on my part?) so I found another tool that would let me flash (this https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/unofficial-xposed-samsung-lollipop-t3180960) and wellI ended up with the downloading screen. It all looks normal here is what it says

I tried using keis firmware upgrade I type in the model and serial but it tells me" the model information that you have entered cannot be verified; the device initialization cannot proceed" there is a space after the main s/n and then a wx but if i try it with or without the space at the end it fails to accept it.
On a totally separate note if i were to buy another phone, could I root that phone remove the bloatware, unroot the phone. Snapchat should work properly then right?
Is it possible to have a brand new phone, copy the firmware from it
on the corrupt phone erase it completely and flash the firmware from the new phone onto it (basically a clone)?
What are terms I would look up to accomplish such a task if it is possible? Or even a guide?
