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.
Having the same problem

What's the solution? Do you already could find the problem?

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.
Here is the ODIN log if it is of any use:

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.
Flashed Rom zip. Note 3 back to health.

Hi
I flashed Djembey's deodexed pre-rooted jb 4.3 SM-N9005 XXUDMJ7 superslim rom (cwm) from here (second post):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2461929
I used CWM recovery. After flashing the superslim rom, I was able to flash stock rom 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...

If you do really want to upgrade after you read the upper report i can help you cause Odin and Heimdall are no more supported and you cant downgrade anymore to 4.2.2
So think about it twice
And please read here too http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=45666586&postcount=1 ^^
I got 5 buttons in odin and no one says "PDA" i know it's not "PIT" and the other ones are "BL, AP, CP, CSC" i guess it should be "AP" since that button is in the same place as "PDA" should be, and i still get failed when using Heimdall, i have also tried to download root, but since the download speed is so damn low from that site i cant get it... what am i doing wrong?

Bro Please remember if you update your phone to newest 4.3, there is no more chance for you to downgrade your system , and if you root/custom your phone / you will Void your Warranty , just like they said on i9506 thread to wait until someone make a custom rom in order NOT to void that warranty for your phone.

You are trying to flash a stock 4.2.2 over a 4.3 knox bootloader!!!! If course you will get error!!!!
Since you have 4.3 knox bootlader, you only can flash stock 4.3 roms. Download the last update for your model from sammobile and reflash again with same process.

Try flash back your origin country ROM. What had you tick at PC Odin?
and you mention TGY, if not wrong that is for Hong Kong.
Hong Kong N9005 is unfriendly with any others country ROM, it can't cross flashing.

It's failing on bootloader, did you attempt to upgrade to 4.4.2 and change your mind? Or trying to downgrade ?

I've never attempted to upgrade to 4.4.2.
I've just tried to flash with international firmware in order to get local language menu.
My Note 3 is SM-N9005 SFR, but I want to flash with SM-N9005 THL or XME. But flash fail every time, and it cannot go into normal screen, even recovery mode. I just stuck in Odin mode when I turn on my phone.

Hi, sorry to hijack, but how do I know if a ROM is going to be compatible with my phone?
I don't think the ROM thread would say what country's Note 3 it will be compatible/incompatible with, right? I'm getting a Note 3 and planning to flash a custom ROM.

Yes, I've flashed (AP) MK2 BTU with Odin 3.09 and 3.04; but result still the same, Fail !!
I don't know that the first error (fail) was because I chose BL instead of AP or not.
I noticed that I did wrong after I clicked start button; and Odin told me Fail, then I flashed again with odin in AP with the same file.

What is the bootloader version of XME, TGY, THL firmware you have used to flash?
Make sure the bootloader of the firmware is being flash (BTU) should be equal or higher the bootloader version of the above firmwares.
You can not use a lower bootloader to flash over a higher one.

With my stupid, I didn't look what was my current bootloader that came with the mobile phone. I've just downloaded "N9005XXUDMJ7_N9005OLBDMK2_THL", and flashed it with Odin.
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

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?

BL_N900AUCUBMJ5.zip

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.

Looks like neither of the firmware files from sammobile.com will work as your phone is running at least a 4.3 bootloader as indicated by the presence of the "Knox" in download mode. Your bootloader may be locked as well.
You can't boot into recovery either?

The rom can't be flashed because the rom you are flashing has a bootloader that is older than the bootloader on the phone. This is evidenced by the failed to flash the aboot.mbn file.

I have just checked and I think kies was downloading the one with the mdl bootloader and I think it's the same one I tried flashing with odin.The first one from this link http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SGH-I337/

Looks like kies will not restore the phone. You'll have to flash a newer rom using Odin. Check out the link I posted earlier.

It only has 2 firmwares and I already tried 1 and the second has a different bootloader.
Edit: If you mean the guide,then it is stated at the end that I shouldn't use it with MDL
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=65534997&postcount=8
If your phone has the mdl bootloader, the mdl sammobile.comm firmware should work. If the mdl firmware can't be flashed to the phone, this tells me the phone is not running an mdl bootloader.
Yes, the guide should not be used if the bootloader is mdl but this may not be the case with your phone as there is a reference to "knox" in download mode.

I don't know what's wrong but kies and smartswitch are downloading the one with the mdl bootloader
It's probably picking the mdl because that is the only full rom available for the i337. Any updates beyond 4.2 were only released as ota updates. You will have no choice but to flash in accordance with a locked bootloader.
