you can't install a custom rom via odin! you need to have custom recovery like CWM and then flash the custom rom.zip file from that recovery mode.

Thanks bro, finally there is custom recovery for our devices.
I got questions though:
1. Woluld they work on A300-fu?
2. Would they work kitkat?
Also, it would be helpful for A3 users if somebody could share those mods and deodex from that website to XDA since I couldn't understand how they to make them work.

Hi all! I've made a TWRP recovery for GALAXY A3! I can't test it because I don't have an A3 but if you test please tell me if it's work
This recovery is probably working on all A300x variants, flash it using Flashify.
It's made for LL (Lollipop) but you can try on KitKat
Download here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ns81n9yti81kej3/TWRP_A300FU_LL_2.8.7.0.img?dl=0

Perhaps your pc problem... test another pc...

Update your Note3 to Note7 for dummies + root and twrp

Here for my international Note3 but other Note3 versions are mostly similar
1) download ithe COMPLETE mod + kernel from other website (search for darklord note 3) e.g. DarkLord.Note7.Full.Port.V1.0.zip
2) download odin 3.10.6
3) download CF-Auto-Root-hlte-hltexx-smn9005.tar.md5 (for my note version)
4) set note3 into developer mode if needed tab settings/build number until developer is enables then set usb debug on
5) connect note3 with usb to your pc and copy the DarkLord.Note7.Full.Port.V1.0.zip to your phone (internal or sdcard)
6) start odin and reboot note3 with power,home,volume down pressed to go recovery
7) flash auto root with odin and reboot
8) install twrp manager from playstore and flash twrp 2.8.7.0
9) reboot with power,home,volume up into twrp
10) select install and select DarkLord.Note7.Full.Port.V1.0.zip
11) during install select dont wipe keep all apps
12) enjoy your note7

Thanks for your guide.
Couldn't you flash twrp using Odin, boot immediately into twrp, wipe, and flash rom that was saved to internal or external memory from twrp?
I'm not criticizing, I'm just asking.

Thanks. But can you please link what's necessary for this?
You will get ask for links.

Yes. That's the simple way to do it

Dark lord rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/development/darklord-s7-edge-port-6-0-1-mm-t3382954

this dark lord rom from this website has no kernel included
dl his COMPLETE rom from other website

Sorry, I thought every rom had a kernel; otherwise, how would any rom boot?

xda dont allow kernels here so search for the ROM on other Website where its "complete"

So you're saying the rom I linked doesn't have a kernel?
xda does allow kernels: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/development#kernels
Edit: My apologies. I read through the thread I linked and see that you need to flash the rom, then a kernel that matches the phone.

Its the kernel that XDA has banned multiple posts to due to failure to comply with GPL .

No. It has to be ported(modding the coding of the apps/frameworks/kernel).
Not just changing kernel. You do that you phone won't boot.
When I said if somebody else willing to do it, he must has knowledge in porting the firmware/rom.
