Fix for various 4.4.2 KitKat Firmware upgrade from 4.3

Ok so after days of trying to solve various issues with the manual install of 4.4.2 from 4.3 I thought to post this to help any one that is having various issues.
Issues you maybe having
Volume keys not responding
When trying to unlock it freezes and takes a long time to go to the home screen (sometimes it never did)
Various apps not responding
Now I wont take credit here as all I did was flash the correct files and correctly installed 4.4.2. The way I was doing it previously (and might I add that is listed on most ROM developers install instructions) was not accurate. They has said to simply flash Stock XXUENA6. When looking this only came as one file so i did just that. After flashing with Odin I then flashing my desired ROM, I would experience the above issues. And I flashed various ROMS too Omega, Crash, Sweet, Foxhound.
Here is what you need to do
When the developer says Flash Stock XXUENA6 firmware with odin.
Go to Google, type Flash Stock XXUENA6 firmware with odin > choose the first link. Look for a post from Aryan Sardar at TrueAndroid. Download the correct files, follow the instructions step by step. They are easy and this will ensure you have the STOCK firmware for 4.2.2 ready for flashing a custom rom.
I give full credit to Aryan Sardar for this help as I was loosing my mind trying to fix.
So there you have it!
I hope this helps people experiencing the above issues.

[q] can't no more flash non tw lollipop roms

I will try to explain me clearly
My phone is working normally and I can restore nandroid without issues
I'm actually with my V29 KK TW and work without issues
BUT If i flash aosp or cm rom, just afeter enter pin code, the screen becomes black like problem with proximity sensor
I can put my hand in front, it doesn't change, If I push the buttons, sometimes the screen appears and disappears immediately
and the more strange is I have this problem with the RR 5.3.9 I had flashed before without issue and can restore a nandroid I have done with it...
I have done a clean flash of my KK TW V29 without issue....
first I have made a FULL wipe include internal storage and flash stock NI4 rom but without any changes
someone got an idea???
thank's
I have flashed successfully 2 QS L differents versions but can't with CM roms (euphoria, tema, RR...)
is there a reason to that
This is x-files troubles, personally I reflash stock LP with Odin and all is good now
I have try back with RR 5.3.9 and got same problem but if I restore nandroid from 5.3.9 it's working without issues...WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!
i try to flash L stock rom with odin root, complete wipe (except ext sdcard)
I run masik script wipe and ael cleaner, format boot, system data
It seem's it begin when I flash arter kernel or the UKM (universal kernel manager) to run civ kernel..
so i try to uninstall ukm but allways without succes
I flashed 4.4 c-rom without issues, so I flashed back KK rom with odin and back to my V29 kk rom
look my signature to have details on my config
thank's for the help..
So...first question:
Did you ever take the official lollipop update from samsung?
Second Question:
What country are you in, and carrier do you use?
Please message me the following details from the sticker inside the device under the battery, so I can grab the Service files from samsung for you!
I've flashed OB1 with odin and flash back after 2 weeks NI4 and the last I try was this N9005XXUFNG2_N9005OXXFNG3_XEF (Open France) (No-wipe)
the flash goes well but doesn't change my BL and modem, before that I was with NI4 BL and NI3 modem and now still with that
I use sosh carrier (orange) in france
will send you the details from sticker
@rayman95 This is what i have found out!!! From my understanding, You took the Lollipop bootloader when you installed the OC1 Package. if you want to completely restore to "Earlier Version", WHICH this may not be possible due to a SAMSUNG new coding issue, You would need to have the complete 4 Files software to repair your device.... As well as using all the following checkboxes in ODIN:
Auto-Reboot
Re-Partition
F. Reset Time
NAND Erase ALL
Phone Bootloader Update
I Attempted to download your files for the device, but Kies will Not "Initialize" for download, and it will give you an Error if you plug the device into Kies3 i believe because you device is ROMMed.
IF you want to try Kies to restore AND it begins "DOWNLOADING", You can copy the Tmp****.tmp.zip that is created when the progress indicator hits 85% in Kies.
The File location on Win7 is "C:\Users\*Your Screen Name HERE*\AppData\Local\Temp"
If you Have the 4 Part file for NI2, try flashing in ODIN wioth the Above Checkboxes selected!!
Kies don t let me dl any files and gave me some error but don't remember exactly what... but not important because you give me good files.....after that I hope flashing again cm12.1.....
Thank so again chief....

[Q] Botched flashing from 4.3 to twrp to aryamod 6 to BOE4

After more than a year with my 4.3 Note 3. I decided to flash a custom ROM. Namely Aryamod 6. (first attachment was the stock 4.3 I started with). I knew that I needed to backup my data so I decided to flash a custom recovery so I went about it by getting Rom Manager to flash CWM which eventually would allow me to flash TWRP. I eventually used the dd install method to install TWRP but that didn't work so I used odin to flash it. This caused my Note to freeze up a few minutes after booting with a black screen and the status bar just showing.
I decided to go through with flashing Aryamod v6 to get a fresh start. I flshed the BL and CP files which then caused my Note to go into a boot loop where I can't even boot to recovery. I was told to update to a 5.0 rom and I used the base rom of Aryamod v6 which is the BOE4 rom. Now when I try to flash the BOE4 rom I get the volume size is too big and invalid ext4 image.
Also sometime during the first bootloop I accidentally ticked Nand EraseAll but as far as I could see it did nothing.
Anyway, right now it is very difficult to download another ROM because of horrible Philippine isps and my Note is also my daily driver so I need to get it back into working order ASAP. These are the files I have:
ODIN 3.09
N9005XXUGBOEA_N9005OJVGBOE4_KSA - The Base ROM of Aryamod v6 a 5.0 rom
N9005XXUGBOEA_AryaModV6.0_Public - Aryamod v6
CP_N9005XXUGBOD3.tar.md5 - part of the aryamod instructions and I believe the modem of 5.0
BL_N9005XXUGBOEA.tar.md5 - part of the aryamod instructions and I think the bootloader?
twrp-2.8.7.0-hlte-4.3.img. zip- The twrp version I flashed when I was on 4.3
hlte-recovery.img.zip - I flashed this to get out of the recovery loop when I dd installed Twrp.
PIT-File-DBT+VFG-UK-MSM8974 - A PIT file.
SM-N9005_32GB.pit - another pit file. Flashing this got me into stock recovery.
N9005ZHUBMI7_N9005ZZHBMI7_N9005XXUBMI5_HOME.tar.md5 - I don't remember where I got this. Haven't flashed this but it might be a backup of my 4.3 rom
A few questions.
Can I fix my phone with these files?
When Flashing the BOE4, I just put it on PDA/AP? but in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/general/guide-t2983873, he seems to be putting it on everything.
I really need your help on these
I have no idea about that file you have, whether it will work or not, but the only thing I can say is, the Polish ROM is the Lollipop ROM which works on most devices, so you might wanna give it a try.
I don't live in a place with even decent ISPs, but I can download a ROM in less than two hours, so if your condition is not worse then you will have to download a ROM rather than depending on what you have.

Back to stock...But how

I have an 910f.Bought it used. Until now everything was great but i tried to install the 5.1.1 stock from sammobile.
While process was going well at the end i got a failed because hidden.img was too big. Ok i said and did a restart. Now i can install every custom rom but no stock and i want to do so cause some of my apps need stock rom. I dont know which was the original stock rom and i have tried at least 12 but everytime i get the failed in odin. Can anyone help?

Failure to restore stock ROM to N910T: please help

Hi, I have an N910T running update LineageOS (TWRP), and I a couple of apps recently won't run on a rooted phone. So I have tried to restore the stock ROM. I downloaded from Sammobile (tried 4.4 and 5.1) but neither will load using ODIN (log shows failure before any .img files loaded).
Can anyone suggest how to go back in time on this phone?
Thanks for any help!

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
An updated bootloader, as I assume you already have, will NOT let you flash an older version of the stock rom.
When you have that (updated bootloader) , for security reasons you are no longer able to roll so much back as 4.4 or 5.1 roms.
Only 6(MM) and up roms are allowed anymore.
So , look here for the latest stock rom for your phone/model and flash it using odin
