Hi guys, long time lurker here anyway i've always flashed my S4 with odin and not a single problem always flashed STOCK firmwares
but today i recently discovered a new firmware on the list for the GT-I9500 Exynos Octa (version) - this firmware to be in fact I9500ZNUCMI1
but now its bombed... it hanged and hanged at booting for 20 min then it shut it self off turned it back on 'the firmware encounter a problem' message popped up... i cannot go into recovery mode AT ALL (just download mode) so i thought i will flash my previous stock firmware known as I9500XXUBMG9 but now i cant even do that..... odin just gives me a god damn fail - FOR THE LOVE OF ANDROID HELP ME
- Kies is not running in the background
- USB connections are fine
- Cables are fine
So do i have to fear this is the end ? lol i cannot believe this happened to me on a STOCK firmware.... (lucky for me... all my stuff is backed up on sd)
Any help would be greatly appreciated

If you can get into Download mode, all hope is not lost. Uninstall and resinstall drivers, Odin, etc. reboot.
Odin back to stock, immediately boot into stock recovery, wipe data, reboot.
Done.

The good news is that Download mode is still working. AS long as that's the case, you can get it back. Just keep trying. Switch PCs, switch cables, switch ports, re download a different stock ROM, etc. do whatever it takes to try every variable you can think of.
Eventually, you'll find what's causing it and the ROM will flash successfully. When that happens, get immediately into recovery and wipe data.
(Remove the battery after it flashes, but it back in and hold vol-up+home+power.)
After the data wipe....
Reboot.
Like I said, Download mode means you can find a way to flash, but working with Odin to resolve these issues can sometimes be a PITA. I've had the same thing myself before. Just don't give up. Try to stay calm, and work your way through it. You'll get it eventually.
Edit: Just noticed that you flashed a CHINA firmware. (Why? ) You may be facing this issue because (I think) they use a different pit. There's a thread devoted to resurrecting the device with pit. Maybe check it out.

yes, make sure that you are using the right pit, put it in "pit" window in odin, and the firmware in "pda", make sure "re-partition" is ticked, start.

EDIT: At this point, I'm just trying to flash official firmware via ODIN but every attempt is ending with ODIN: Invalid ext4 image on various firmwares and via various USB ports
Hi everyone,
I recently picked up a Galaxy Note 3 which I soon realized was a parallel import and so I decided to flash firmware from my country with Odin. It failed (I soon realized I had forgotten to enable USB debugging) and my phone currently displays "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again."
I have tried reinstalling Kies, different USB ports (USB 2.0 & 3.0) after turning off USB 3.0 charging too, reseating the battery etc but each time, Kies tells me "The connected device is not supported by Kies 3. Check which devices are supported and try again." except Kies 3 is what the Note 3 uses...
Reinstalling the driver as well doesn't appear to do anything either. The Note 3 shows up in device manager as SAMSUNG Mobile USB Modem so it's detected but I can't exactly say if that is correct?
Anyway, any help is appreciated! I'll see when Samsung's contact centre is open next being Christmas and all and since I was only flashing official firmware, my Knox counter is still at 0x0 so my warranty is still in place should the need to use it arise.
If you flash with odin then why do you need kies for? Just put it in download mode and flash it again.

Flashing with ODIN has been stopping on "Invalid ext4 image" every time but I'm downloading another ROM to try out at the moment. Hopefully that should work. I was trying to avoid ODIN since I wasn't sure if repeatedly try to flash a ROM (even official firmware) and having it fail would make things worse.

Well, I don't have one yet. I'm still going through various firmwares but the second one I've tried threw up the same error. Basically, I'm just waiting for firmwares to download at the moment. I'll report back if I manage to fix it. I would assume it's due to not having debugging mode enabled but I can't exactly enable it in my current situation.

Well, I've gone through about 5 or 6 various ROMs and each fail at system.img.ext4 so I'm at a loss as to if I can even flash back to stock. I plan on contacting Samsung Support since my Knox counter is safely at 0x0 and I've run out of relevant posts to read that I have found.

It seems that you might have a severe case of bad blocks on the eMMC (internal flash) - that in itself should be enough reason for a warranty replacement.
If you can not do a warranty replacement you should look (inside Odin) into erasing all NAND and repartitioning (there are some posts around with similar info, read a few of those until you understand what you are doing before starting to do anything on that direction).
Hello!
I made the switch from iOS to Android a couple of days ago and as well own a Note 3 device. After a couple of days of reading around the forums I decided to flash the MK2 Uk rom since in my country we're only up to MJ7 and I've been experiencing very weird battery drains. I am aware that the update won't likely fix them and I'll have to wait for the next one in January but I hope to at least make things better. Unfortunately today I downloaded Kies3 and I'm getting the same error when I click on the firmware check or upgrade menu (or whatever it is called). I haven't tried Odin yet because the firmware was taking too long to download and I had tl go out for work. Still I very doubt it will work since the official program isn't even working.
tl;dr; Please post in the topic when you find a solution as I am experiencing the same problem as well. Especially if I have to do a warranty replace since I have a wiggly button and I was wondering whether to do that in the first place.
Possible not a genuine Note 3?
This is absurd, I said I am new to Android, this doesn't mean I have grown in a pot. My device came with all the appropriate stickers, branding and everything and is purchased through a local carrier. Unfortunately I got one from Vietnam with the wiggly home button but it is a legit device. Anyways I even tried contacting my local support but they were most unhelpful, only forwarded me to an Authorized Service Provider (what an awful chat app, they disconnected me and I even lost the details). I think I will soon try flashing a custom firmware through CWM or something..

I believe KIES 3 in Emergency Firmware Recovery mode does NOT YET support the updated bootloaders - so if your device has a bootloader >= MJ3 it will not be seen in KIES 3. I am still using Kies v3.1 but I have seen a v3.2 available, however I do not know if the problem is solved.

Hi
Just had exactly the same problem as yours, and odin continuously failed just after 'hidden img'. Tried several roms to no avail. Phone was already rooted before the issue, and knox flag was already 0x1. I decided to flash cwm recovery (via odin) from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2454079
The note 3 (SM-N9005) booted all the way surprisingly but with some issues (back button not working/Samsung keyboard stopping). I can now flash rom zip.
Tip: As your Knox flag is 0x0, try flashing stock recovery via odin.

You are right.
If you tried to flash a firmware from another country than the original one, it might be that the partition size is not correct. You probably need to flash a pit file that is matching the partition size of the new firmware. Try to search for one that is matching to one of the firmware you downloaded and flash it with the new firmware ( tick repartition in Odin - this will erase your data !!!).
This is just a proposal and I do not know it it will work, but I got that hint from a thread in a German forum about changing from EU version to DBT firmware.
Im having a similar issue, except my note3 is the exynos (sm-n900), kies3 says my phone is not supported and odin fails at flashing my phone, it shows this

I have no idea on what else to do, any help please?
I've got the system.img.ext4 issue as well. Knox is still 0x0 and I was only trying to flash (Odin) a ROM from Sammobile - MI7, same level as the original but XSA instead of TGY. Bloody annoying.
Anyone got the Aussie Samsung support number?
I resolved my issue by DL'ing and flashing the TGY ROM - got an MI7 version so I should be still OK for RDLV. Apparently flashing with the ROM from another country is a problem - Odin passed teh XSA one without an issue, so I don't think it was a corrupt DL. I did see a reference in my searching to perhaps the partitions are different sizes in different CSC's or something.
So, now to enjoy my Note for a few days before rooting...
I tried to install the 4.4.2 N9005XXUENA6_N9005OXXENA5_N9005XXUENA2 update on my Note 3 via odin 3.09.
Got an ext4 update failed error.
After this, the phone's bricked and is stuck on the Kies Recovery Screen. I tried to go into recovery mode in Kies, but it says this model does not have initialization.
I tried installing a 4.3 N9005XXUDMK3_N9005TNLDMK1_N9005XXUDMK2, but again failed. Download mode shows SW REV CHECK FAIL : [aboot] Fused 3 > Binary 2
Can someone please guide me to unbrick my phone?
I don't know what ROM I was on initially. It was the stock ROM that came with the phone.
I dont have CWM and TWRM installed.
This is not a brick at all. Just add a .pit file and restart the upgrade via Odin again.
You should be fine.

You won't be able to downgrade back to 4.3 - Use the PDA slot on ODIN and try flashing again.

I don't know what ROM I was on initially. It was the stock ROM that came with the phone.
I dont have CWM and TWRM installed.

Solution
I also have Hong Kong N9005 32GB with N9005XXUBMI5 PDA, tried to flash 4.4.2 with Odin and stuck at "invalid ext4 image", was't able to flash anything after it.
But after 16 hours I finally found a solution:
1. Get leaked Polish ROM (that one with 4 files, do not use the official - it has one file rom)
2. Extract archive
3. Extract "CSC_OXX_N9005OXXENA5_327209_REV03_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar" and get your pitfile - HLTE_EUR_OPEN.pit
4. Flash your phone with this pitfile and other 4 files from archive (I used Odin 3.09) with repartitioning enabled.
After this procedure I have fully working android 4.4 :victory:

Seems to be a common problem. Hopefully an update to it will fix it.
Hi, I had my S4 with stock rom 4.3 with adam kernel and philz touch recovery, tried to install via odin the stock rom 4.4.2 TTT but because of a CPU problem the usb connection was interrupted while installing. Now I'm stuck at download mode.

Odin was interrupted at the bootloader update (sboot.bin). You need the "factory ROM" to flash it, however I am not aware if anything for 4.2.2 would be available for now.

Well it doesn't work, when I turn on the phone a black screen with a cellphone, a warning sign and a monitor appears and a text says "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again."
With this screen I can only go into download mode but when I try recovery mode it just puts the screen black and back to the same text and pictures.
Another thing that worries me it's that I can't turn the phone off with the button, only if I pull the battery out.
This can be recovered I had same prblm some months ago bt I just flashed stock firmware nd it was fixed u may try flashing stock rom again

I've already tried with the rom "I9500UBUEMK1_I9500UUBEMK1_I9500UBUEMK1_HOME.tar.md5" (I believe it's stock rom) and get the odin error that appears in my first post...
Try some other firmware of you own region ......... 4.3 or 4.4 whichever u have for your region .......I think then u will nt get same error

Obviously not. simple flash of ROM is not sorting out the corrupted bootloader problem.

considering your situation, I doubt if it will work. you have to pick from two scenarios:
a) your download mode shows warranty void, knox void, custom: then you have to go to step 2 below.
b) your download mode shows all statuses samsung or official or 0x0 - then go to 1
1. Call samsung service center, they shall sort it out under the warranty.
2. More complicated, if you do not want to pay for repairs.
DELETED, procedure was for I9505 ONLY
you have to follow the procedure form this link instead.
Good luck.

You will need the PC with not faulty CPU, first.
Then, you have to use the PIT from here
Of course, you will need the Qualcomm drivers as well, from here or this one
Then, you have to follow the relatively simple procedure described here
That shall fix the corrupted bootloader, and I hope that you will not see the described there errors which would point to the hardware problem.
Good luck.

Warning!
He said he is in trouble with a I9500 device, so the Qualcomm drivers will not help....much.
Just an observation, you said you have no recovery right? So have you tried just flashing the tar of PhilZ recovery using Odin to get it back?
At least then you'll have a recovery again and can move forward with a custom ROM install

Hi
I have AT&T Note 3 , sim unlock from carrier, successful kingo root 0x0 Knox (startup splash screen says Custom Unlock)
So, I was hopped up on percocets because of my recent surgery and i decided i was in conscious enough mind to tackle getting AWS unlock. I wasn't.
I was reading about chainfire regionaway app, so i went to the app store and downloaded the first chainfire app that popped up - 3D. so now i am stuck in the note 3 splash screen. yes i know i should have read it more carefully, etc. but i just wasn't all there at the time. Please help me save this $500 brick!
I've been reading these methods:
http://www.droidviews.com/how-to-unbrick-att-galaxy-note-3-sm-n900a/
i can get the phone recognized in ODIN, but the secure check fail: cache occurs
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2567133
i can't download any of these files...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2507403
tried this but didn't work.
i'm really not making any headway... any help would be much appreciated.
side note:
can i send this in for warranty? Since AT&T just release the kitkat update can i claim that i tried to update and it failed?
current binary: samsung official
system status: custom (not official)
Knox lock 0x0
Knox warranty void 0x0
EDIT: After doing the ODIN fail - it is stuck in ODIN mode and says "firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recory mode in Kies & try again."
Can not enter download mode. But still connects in ODIN
thanks!
Yes you can return. Best bet as Knox counter is still 0.
If you try other methods and they don't work, you may tripe Knox.
Even you connect to your pc is the phone on download mode?

Lol?
What are you trying to do here? Flashing anything?
Is it 4.3 or 4.4 os?
Never run kies side by side Odin add the last one hates the first. Kies is useless.
Kill it and restart your pc. Don't run kies services when using Odin.
I think you should download your firmware from sammobile.com and flash it.
Take battery out and then try download mode again. After killing kies you should be able to use Odin to flash.

This means you are trying to flash a version older than what is currently installed. Try the next higher revision, or find one that doesn't include a bootloader.

how can there be a newer version, it was never updated to kitkat?
sammobile only lists that version and i'm quite certain it was 4.3
so if i don't flash the bootloader, what do i flash?
can i not use these files?

Hi mate,
if you are stuck, maybe you can try this.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2701062
it's a way to unbrick your software.
and update to kitkat.
maybe your problem is the firmware in the sammobile were before the firmware you have install on your device via OTA update.
Yours firmware came throw out via OTA update and with some reason you can't see any latest firmware USA N900A in sammobile.
try the method in the link and reply if you have been successful.
