Peeps.
I want to reflash my note 3 back to stock to sell it on but I am having problems.
I downloaded the stock rom from sammoblie , installed odin and followed all instructions and it always fails at installing installing the hidden part of the rom ( whatever that is ).
I have tried different USB ports and different USB cables as well as different UK stock ROMs and still not luck.
Can anyone advise.
Thanks

I am unable to install this app as my device will not load. As it has partially flashed the stock rom, I no longer have the ability to load anything.

Managed to get it to flash stock rom. Turns out that it was a bad download of the rom from sammoblie. Re downloaded the file and flashed and worked 1st time.

I've always used Teamepic root and then flashed my rom, that didn't work with the S4, at least for me.... I couldn't get into recovery.
So I tried many other ways, every way I have found on the internet and if it's not one thing it's another. SSU will either say binary not available or when I am installing from recovery (cfroot) it says install aborted. I've flashed to the stock rom so many times since yesterday I'm about to go nuts, but nothing will get this phone rooted, please help!

Easiest way to root.Use odin to flash the tar file of agats kernel. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2260536
This kernel has a script that will root for you. After that reboot and your rooted.you still will have to odin a recovery to flash a rom but this is the best way . Any time you need help pm me

Do I have to wipe the phone again and reinstall the stock firmware first?
Ok, so previously with my S4, if we flashed a I9505 ROM onto a I337or I337M S4, all we had to do was flash our device models custom or stock kernel and the wifi and everything that was borked was then fixed. This doesn't seem to be the case here.
And now I can't figure out for the life of me how to get back wifi after flashing a 9005 ROM on my N900!
I'm sure it's something super simple, and I;ve searched for the solution, but clearly I'm looking in the wrong place.
Any assistance would be met with a "Thanks" and some karma points
Did you flash a custom firmware or a stock one?

Ok well that blows out what I thought you'd done it.
Have you tried wiping after flashing the correct ROM? The "incorrect ROM" didn't include any modern files didn't (not that I'm sure CWM will flash them on this phone however)
Strange question, but is your camera still working? Recording etc... also, in device settings, does it list the correct IMEI number?
Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk
Yup, camera works with stock kernel that the rom came with, imei is fine.
Just can't figure out which files to flash to get wifi and other radios working

Did you try a factory reset? After backing up of course...
Might work....
So i just bought my Lg G2 a few days ago, i instantely rooted it and installed Vanir, things have been great minus a few small bugs...but being i am a crack flasher i tried a few other roms such as Omni, Beanstalk and more but when i try these other roms i have no issues except that they always boot themselves on when you charge them..you can turn the rom off, plug it in and surely enough it automatically boots itself up, i've tried plugging it in then turning it off and the results are the same. the only rom that will charge while off and remain off is Vanir but i have experienced a few small bugs on then
ANYWAY the main resaon I started this thread is because every and any kernel i try to flash doesnt flash, they all fail...can anyone shed some light as to why all the kenels are failing on me?
Which kernels are you flashing? Which variant are they for? Erich variant do you have?

If you are using TWRP, flash Philz touch recovery (see android original development). It may be a recovery issue.

Bump
Does anyone have any idea why I can flash majority of the roms available but I cannot flash one single custom kernel?
I've tried the latest TWRP. an earlier version and i've tried Philz touch...none of which will allow me to flash any of these custom kernels available for my VS980....and yes the kernels are meant for said device. There is also maybe one or two roms that won't flash either
sorry to bump this again but i still cannot get any kernels to flash
I am certainly rooted as i have flashed multiple roms but are there any other steps or processes i need to do in order to flash a kernel on this phone? i've owned about 9 android phones and every time i've rooted and unlocked the bootloader, installed a custom recovery i was able to flash roms and kernels with ease...as i've mentioned i've tried different versions of recoveries and everythng and no mattter what every kernel i try to flash fails...its not the end of the world but i would really like to try some of these custom kernels out and dunno how to do it...
am i missing something?
Hi guys, I'm new to this forum but have read many things on it and have gotten lots of help, but this question NEEDS a new thread!
I have been using my International Galaxy Note 3 (9005) for about 9 months, I bought it from Kogan in Australia and just recently I decided to root it using CF-Auto Root and then flash X-Note build 18.
A couple of days ago I decided that I didn't like X-Note that much so I tried and flashed Omega Rom. That all worked fine but I didn't really like any of the custom Roms and I just wanted to go back to stock.
So I download (for the first time) the newly released KitKat Australian SM-N9005 Firmware from SamMobile and tried to flash it through Odin straight over Clockwork mod recovery and over the Omega Rom that I currently had installed. When it finished it said that it had failed and something about the Ext4 not being valid, I was shocked (his had never happened to me before with Odin).
I no longer could boot into recovery and the phone said to plug it into Samsung Kies 3 and do an emergency recovery, So i plugged it in and it said that the device was not recognized, and it would not show up in the device list within the emergency recovery window.
So I did a lot of Googleing and came to the conclusion that It was probably the N9005 Australian Rom not being compatible. So after all of these errors and such I booted back into download mode and tried to install one of the other Kitkat Official firmwares that had worked fine before.
It installed just fine and Odin said reset and I unplugged it. but when it booted for the first time I was getting boot loops continually and when and now as I just start to go through the setup process the interface lags and it flashes black a few times and says I have no Sim card in (Which I DO!) and it restarts several times and IS ALL OVER THE PLACE!
It also takes about ten seconds or more after pushing the power button in to get the display to display again and it is unusable and behaving all weird.
The first few times I flash the stock firmware on it through Odin, it remembered my wallpaper, which is really weird seeing I factory reset it!
My best guess is that Flashing it through Odin and and factory reseting it is just not completely clearing it/wiping it and the system is all messed up and stuff is left over.
I don't no WHAT to do!!!! I can't even use it and it's driving me crazy can somebody, please help me!!!!
Thank you!
Look in to omega rom which version of android base it's used, flash same version of stock rom, may not available for Australian but u can flash other countries stock rom, try this & good luck.

Hi why would I have to flash the same android base as omega and what actually is Android Base?
Also will this fix it and how do I check the android base?
Thanks
If omega rom has higher bootloader version, it will not allow to downgrade if Australia stock firmware version is lower, to find out of version u must look at omega rom u flashed.

Should I try a 'Mega Wipe' to completely format it? - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2501577
And I was just reading something about no signal and IMEI, I have no signal and it says no sim card, does that mean I've lost my IMEI forever??
When I was installing x-note I thought EFS backup meant a CMR full backup
As long as I know Dr.ketan tools & utility is for SM-N 900 3g version note3, but u can read more & do it as you want.

Yes the original was, but this script is modified for the n9005 like the guys says in the link.
Will this mega wipe fix my phone??
I don't know about mega wipe, if I will be in your place before making case complicated I would prefer to flash LATTEST STOCK ROM.

Hello I've got problem with my galaxy s4 i9505
So if i want to flash something via odin it's writes complete(write) operation failed.
My device is currently rooted I've install CWM mod somehow even odin said its failed so thats realy wired. At first i just wanted to update android from 4.4.2 or 4.4.4 i dont remember to latest official 5.0.1 and it failed and device are bricked. I've Don't know what to do so i flashed CWM and fortunately it works. Couple days later I've installed Resurrection Remix rom on android 6.0.1 and ti works quite well. Currently I'm running some s6 port rom on android 5.1.1 and there are some issues propably because I've don't install recommended modem & bootloader(current modem is i9505xxugne5) because i just can't. Tried to use another odin versions usb ports/cables and another pc's/windows versions. Any ideas how to get this work. I haven't any problems with odin on my previous phone galaxy s2 plus. Sorry for bad English and Thanks very much for help
Which file is giving the error in Odin? Have you tried different version of Odin, USB cables, and USB ports?
@audit13, he did mention trying all of the above mentioned.
@xOwczarek, do you have the Samsung drivers installed? And if you do, did you install the separately or with Kies?
First I've installed drivers and it don't work then kies and same.
Sent from my GT-I9505 using XDA Free mobile app
did you deactivate kies before starting and remember to run odin as admin ?
And are you using the original cable or have tried with the original cable?
Yes I've use orginal cable. And tried others.

You may be able to use the app FlashFire to flash an official stock rom directly from the phone. You could also flash a modem and bootloader with that app, but the problem is that it will only work while on a stock rom.
My suggestion is: Try and flash a stock rom using that app, and so, your modem and bootloader will be probably updated too. Then try to, either root, or flash a custom recovery back. I recommend TWRP for the recovery.
Rooting first then recovery
Or
Recovery first and then root
They both work.

My apologies to @xOwczarek for not reading more carefully
Thank you for bringing it to my attention. I'm embarrassed but this error needed to be pointed out
Does the Odin error always occur after trying to write a certain file? What about using heimdall (http://glassechidna.com.au/heimdall/) to flash the firmware?
The stock rom came from sammobile.com? What bootloader is on the phone?
Nevermind i've used another pc and it pass! I've used this firmware: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/44775/I9505XXUHOB7_I9505XEOHOB3_XEO/
and orginal cable.
Thanks everyone for help
