[Q] Int. Note3 wont recognize pin after official OTA

Hello guys,
I have encountered i problem after i updated my international note 3 officially.It said there is a new update for my device so i downloaded and updated it then it wouldnt recognize my pin.I took the sim card out then it said there is another OTA available.I downloaded and updated again in hope for a fix but it didnt recognize this time either.I blocked it and tried the PUK1 and PUK2 codes neither them both worked.Im using it now without my sim card.Its not rooted btw.
Thank you have a good day!

Only thing I can think off is boot to recovery and factory reset, see if it fixes it.
If not then you'd probably need to flash stock via ODIN.
However you need to note that reactivation lock must be off -- do you remember/know if it is off or on?

Its off sir under the Security settings.

You can re flash your stock rom via ODIN, have a read around and make sure you are 100% confident in doing so, then when your phone boots back up, you should be able to enter your puk code to unlock your sim.
I cannot stress enough the importance of reading as much as your brain can take in so that you are absolutely confident in what re flashing etc entails.
Good luck and keep the thread posted on your progress

What region of note do you have? If it's a Hong Kong one then you will run into issues.

Hey i have the Australian XSA which the unsubsidised international version practically buying it outright without carriers

Flash this via PDA in Odin. It should sort you out. If it bootloops again after you flash it, take your battery out for a minute or so, put it back in then boot into recovery, wipe cache and reboot. Should be 100% then.

Hey
Hey i did what you told me and now Root is not working even after flashing it on odin

Edit:: there is a new cf auto root for kitkat - you probably used the old one

Can you get to stock recovery and do a factory reset? If you really screwed up your EFS folder, and you don't have a backup of it, you won't be able to make calls ever again, and you IMEI number is gone. You'll have a 5.7 inch media player.
In such cases, a Samsung Service Center trip might be your only option.

Download this put in AP/PDA in odin then flash.

Just to note to people replying in this thread, this guy already has a thread open about this and has tried all the script fix tricks.

Auto Rotate problem

I was with Kitkat German, and suddenly - when I tried to rotate the screen, he also turns around, but he did not turn around right .. and the camera takes pictures upside down, even when I went back to -4.2.2 same thing and not solved ..
Access Warranty?

UP

It's the kitkat modem that messes up the auto-rotate and some other things, have you tried downgrading the modem if possible? Download a flashable zip for the previous modem and flash it via recovery.

Link please for old modem?
thanks.

I'm currently having the same problem. The old modems are not working.

I installed the old modem and now the screen does not turn around at all.

You need a Kitkat baseband for a Kitkat ROM!
Some folks reported that recalibrating the gyro helps.

I can't recalibrate it. The settings app force closes if I try too.

I would prefer flashing the rom new and to not mess up with different basebands.

Try removing sim and ext sd, if you have one, this seems to work for some.

Did you shut down the phone, pull the battery and wait for 20 seconds? Then boot into downloadmode and flash the rom with Odin 3.09. Is Kies terminated in windows task manager?

No because not been nesesery for TOP rom. Kies not terminatet on task manager. Maybe need change Csc before flash NEE?
