Hey all,
I hope everyone is well. I'm having some issues with my Note 3 N9005 intl variant.
I am currently running Resurrection Remix Marshmallow (6.0.1) and its pretty stable and is a good daily driver however it has some bugs that I'm not a fan of. I used Odin to re-flash the stock ROM I got from sammobile back on to my Note 3 (N9005XXUGBOK6_N9005BTUGBOJ1_BTU) however every time I flash it, I am stuck on a boot loop. This is also the case if I try to flash another custom ROM using TWRP, so I am not sure what is wrong.
[Edit] I tried to flash the purify kernel for this ROM however this also results in a bootloop. Currently I am on the kernel that came with this rom which is the temasek kernel
[Edit2] I've managed to get to the samsung logo but its been 10+ minutes and I am still on the pulsing samsung logo. I've done a battery pull and I've also done the cache partition delete and factory reset from the recovery menu, however I am still stuck on the pulsing samsung logo.
Thanks guys
Does Odin successfully flash the stock firmware? You confirmed the model # in download mode?

Odin says that the stock firmware has been successfully flashed. As for the download mode it says the following:
Product name: SM-N9005
After flashing a stock ROM, are you booting the phone into recovery and performing a factory reset before flashing the newly-installed stock ROM for the first time?

Sorry I'm not sure what you mean. Do you mean I flash the stock and then boot into recovery and factory reset before the first boot? Or I should flash the stock and then factory reset and then reflash the stock ROM?

Ok so I'd like to put AllianceROM on my international version SM-G900F H3G UK model.
To do so, my plan is to downgrade lollipop to 4.4.2 stock, root with TowelRoot, then install the ROM through Mobile Odin Pro (to preserve the KNOX counter). I've just tried to flash 4.4.2 onto the phone, but I cannot get it to start at all after it's flashed. The phone just hangs on the Three (H3G) boot animation.
I'm hoping that I've just got confused with the Sammobile site and that I've just flashed the wrong 4.4.2 firmware (so far tried flashing ANG2 and ANE2). Something I should have checked earlier but I just thought they were updated versions of the same ROM).
If I can't successfully boot into 4.4.2, I'd like to try flashing lollipop to retrieve some files I forgot to backup (another silly mistake). I'm not sure whether I can take files off it through the ADB sideload or whatever but if I have to lose all my data then I'm not too bothered.
What's the best way to go about my situation?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Right, thanks man. After flashing lollipop, I can now boot up and back up stuff. I'll flash 4.2.2 again and factory reset.
Anyone have a guide on how to roll back to KK. I tried simply flashing the Stock KK rom but it stalls a Samsung logo. I think its due to the Bootloader which I updated to BOC3 when I installed Lollipop. I can't find the old Bootloader.

Before you flash the KK rom, make sure to Wipe data/Factory reset in recovery, then flash the rom using ODIN, once the procedure is complete, return to recovery and wipe data one more time. This should fix the issue and your phone will boot normally.

I had the same after flashing KitKat and then wiping cache. I had to factory reset from recovery for it to boot normally.
Currently lollipop N910c .BOC5
thinking of going back to kit kat.have not tried because it updated to lollipop immediate when purchased.
Anyone who did that.. did you check knox 0x0 ???
Flashing stock firmware through Odin will not trigger Knox 0x1, but keep in mind you'll have to factory reset your device.
Flashed back to KK
I have got a UK N910F and flashed a German ROM this ROM literally ate my battery, after reading this thread I wiped the phone and flashed KK and that worked, prior to this I tried to revert to KK (when I was on 5.0.1) and I could not revert back as I was stuck on boot loop..............Many Thanks
Decided to flash back to stock lollipop as I was going to send my phone back for repair, so flashed using odin. I got the message <OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 1 / failed 0). But then the phone just boots to the Samsung logo and goes no further. Then tried flashing twrp to see if I could recover one of my old backups, but doing that just takes me to download mode and every time I take the battery out and boot up I end up in download mode again.
Any other ideas? Thanks
Can you boot into the stock recovery after pulling the battery and inserting it again?
I'd suggest flashing the latest 4.4 rom for your region from sammobile.com with the correct pit file, and repartition ticked in odin.

Managed to rescue phone by booting to stock recovery and clearing data/cache.
Is it possible to revert back to kitkat using the procedure you outlined even if you have an updated bootloader? I.e it you've upgraded to lollipop via ota?

I was playing around trying to install CM 12.1 for 910C and I did sucessfully using TWRP 2.8.1.2 and every thing went fine till i wanted to go back to stock rom (N910CXXU1COI4_N910COJV1COH1_N910CXXU1COI4) but after flashing with odin it starts with "installing system updates" but after like 25% it stops and writes "Erasing" then fall into a boot loop stuck on Samsung logo (and recovery shows KNOX: 1)
When I tried to install the custom recovery and rom the phone boots normally
Tried back and forth and tried CWM recovery but every time i go back to stock i get stuck
Any help
Thanks

Did you do a SWM recovery before flashing CM12? Hopefully...
If so restore that. If not, lesson learned.
What were you running before you tried CM12?
Looks like it was older than COI4 and it knows it.
Knox is 1 because it knows you flashed something other than an official stock rom.
I use stock. Flash twrp and wide and flash cm 13. After odin stock and bootlook
Please help me. I speek englis not good. Sorry
1. before that I was using Stock (XSG-N910CXXU1COI4-20150925140936) 5.1.1 flashed through odin and Knox was 0
2. I then installed TWRP 2.8.2.1 then installed (cm-13.0-20151215-UNOFFICIAL-treltexx) then (cm-12.1-20151202-UNOFFICIAL-treltexx)
3. then I flashed the COI4 again and it did the problem
I did not install any radios bootloaders or kernels
the weird thing is that now all roms i download other that CM gives me zip verification error and cannot install
so is there any solution ?
Thanks

Not sure how I can state it any clearer than this
Knox is 1 because it knows you flashed something other than an official stock rom.
You will never be able to fix/clear it. You have tripped the Knox security.
Perhaps you should do more reading before you attempt things on your phone.

Flash a stock ROM. The COI4 is good, it's working. What you are missing is after you get stuck on the logo, try pulling the battery. Boot into the stock recovery and do a factory reset. That should fix it.

how do i install twrp? remember it freezes at the att splash screen I have been without my phone for over 12 hours now I need immediate help
hope u have an unlocked bootloader.. if u do just download twrp the zip one not the image.. for s5 and flash it using Odin.
or go to recovery mode do a full wipe and f.reset then put your phone in download and flash a new stock rom..
If its AT&T and MM has been flashed then it will have a locked bootloader and rooting via cf or twrp will not work.
The only thing that will successfully flash now is AT&T branded MM. You can't even roll back to lollipop or kitkat.
