I am trying to reflash the stock firmware for my Australian Note 3 N9005 Telstra variant.
Here's what method I have tried:
Download the stock firmware from Sammobile
Boot phone into download mode
Open Odin 3.09 and plug in phone to see ID:COM light up
Selected the stock firmware from the AP button
Clicked start and waitied for firmware to flash
The progress bar will get almost to the end when Odin display a FAIL message and my phone will display "invalid ext4 image" on the screen.
Which firmware do you have currently and which are you trying to flash?
N9005 NH1 32GB Stock debloated rooted ROM
Turn off reactivation lock

Make sure the firmware file is downloaded correctly by checking its checksum.

I'm not sure which firmware is currently on there as I have tried a number of them. The one I'm trying to flash is this one:
PDA: N9005XXUENE3
CSC: N9005TELENE1
MODEM: N9005XXUENE3
Which I believe is correct for an Australian Telstra N9005.

I'm not entirely sure how to check its checksum but when I select it in Odin is passes the MD5 check.
I have read that attempting to flash a firmware with a downgraded bootloader to the one currently installed will not work. Would the firmware I have downloaded from Sammobile have a downgraded bootloader? It say that it's 4.4.2

PDA: N9005XXUENE3 is the latest firmware for Telstra, so downgraded bootloader is not the case.
What is your original CSC? (when you first bought the phone)

Unfortunately I never recorded that down and can no longer check what it is.
I have managed to install a custom rom called Carbon Rom via recovery and was able to download a phone info app. However a lot of the codes are empty.
Original CSC: XSI
Product Code: empty
PDA version: empty
CSC version: empty
Baseband version: empty
Android version: 4.4.4

So download the stock firmware for XSI and flash again via Odin.
Open Phone INFO ★Samsung★ app > Menu > 'Firmware Browser', enter XSI into the CSC textbox and tap Go button to search. Select the latest firmware to download.

it is possible to downgrade the firmware from MGA (CSC I9505ITVBMH1) in MDF (CSC I9505ITVAMD8) with odin?
If you simply reflash your desired firmware using odin...I think it won't be an issue....but sometimes the phone gets stuck on the bootloop....then you need to boot to recovery mode and wipe data and cache...then everything will be ok...as long as you flash the correct firmware for the correct phone you'll be fine

Wrong section of wrong forum. You need to be in the standard note 3 forum, not tmo (sm900t), and in the q&a/help section, not development.

You will not be able to get the ota or kies updates since your phone is rooted.
The best way to get the latest 4.4 Kitkat firmware is to go to SamMobile.com
and find the SM-N9005 official odin flash rom/firmware for your phone.
Good luck!
reallysorry but please can you tell me how to install it as i'm new in it and there are many issues in my current rom so please and if possible can you suggest me the rom i should install so that i can have all s-pen features

No offense but this is the worst kind of people here...people who root their phones without reading every single important thread carefully, ending up messing their phone up and blaming it on their "new-ness", so we gotta spoonfeed them.
Regardless, go to Sammobile and download an N9005 stock ROM for your region. Then use Odin to flash it. Check using that app above to make sure you have an N9005 bootloader (first four characters are N9005) to make sure you have an N9005 or you'll end up with a brick. Or you could go to the flashable modems thread and flash an MJ3 N9005 modem in Odin.

You have to install SuperSU from the Play Store, and grant root permission for this app to work.
Otherwise it will wait for the permission accepting, once your phone has been rooted.

Setting up Odin :
1. Make sure you have installed the Samsung usb drivers for windows.
2. Run Odin as administrator in windows.
Add the TAR/MD5 file in the PDA section/slot in odin.
4. Now that Odin is setup, put the phone in download mode and connect usb cable.
Power off the phone then press 'home+power+volume down' buttons at the same time.
Keep the buttons pressed till Download mode appears.
5. Now that Odin and the phone are setup, connect the usb cable from phone to computer.
Odin will detect the device and show something like [com:4l]
6. Click START in Odin.
7. The flash will take 5 minutes for a full flash on average
8. When the flashing is complete, DO NOT disconnect usb until Odin shows ' PASS '.
9. The phone will reboot. Unplug usb cable from phone and computer then go into
recovery mode and select "factory/data reset".
That's it. Happy flashing ..!!
The SM-9005 4.4.2 Kitkat firmware from sammobile comes with the Odin Windows utility.
Unzip the zip file from Sammobile into a new empty folder in your windows desktop and
you will see the TAR/MD5 firmware file and you will see Odin after unzip is completed.
You will need to create a free account on Sammobile to be able to download
the SM-N9005 Kitkat 4.4.2 official firmware zip file.
Just follow the step by step instructions above.
Good luck!

But at first you should install SuperSU if your phone has been rooted.

Just a quick question-if you are unrooted--just how did you get to the firmware that you were on when you started the thread? That is not an OTA update, surely?

when i followed the Thailand Lollipop leak thread, it unrooted my phone. i could never get it to flash SuperSU correctly (to then fix the bluetooth issue).
i ended up just flashing the Russian official Lollipop in Odin, to get my phone working again. and it seems like this official release fixed everything i hated about Lollipop.
I'm glad to hear that.

There is No need To Worry just Flash With Odin & Follow The Steps Carefully You'll Get Lollipop..than in Lollipop Your Baseband will be N910AUCU1COC4....After That You'll Be able To Update Via OTA... Its Latest N910AUCU2COC5 update is Around 160MB You'll Get that in OTA..

No you can't boot a lollipop firmware with marshmallow bootloader,first of all make a backup because when you downgrade you have to factory reset your phone
You can find the S5 (G900F) firmware on sammobile,go to select country and search for your country or country that have the latest lollipop build BPE3(like Italy,Germany,Spain),then when you find the firmware you want to download click on it and find the product code(for example the prouct code of the italian fimwares is ITV), now download samfirm open it,and insert: on Model SM-G900F and on Region the product code of the firmware you chose to download(check the CRC32 and Decrypt option and uncheck binary nature because it will include userdata partition,useless in this case and also the firmware will be bigger to download) when it has finished to download extract the firmware zip,you should get a tar.md5 file out of it, download Odin,open it and insert your firmware on AP (uncheck repartition if it's checked) , now factory reset your phone from recovery(it will wipe also the internal sd so be sure to backup it) and reboot it in download mode,plug your phone in the computer , click start on odin and wait until the flashing process end,it will reboot automatically

No it will not trip knox as long as it have the proper signature: if the recovery.img and boot.img are signed from Samsung and you don't modify it because if you do the signature will become invalid(it's long to explain but if you want i'll explain it) it's impossible that knox will be tripped
