I am new to the note 3 and did a full wipe in the 'advance options'...Coming from the s4 that was standard and it apparently soft bricks the phone here.
I am able to get to download mode. It just hangs on the Samsung screen.
Do we have the odin files for 4.4.2? I was on N900 I think. (Literally just got the phone so cant remember)
See if you boot into recovery by holding power, home and down key. If so download a custom rom on your computer and put on a sd card and try to install that way. Otherwise try to odin back to stock. Good luck

He said he's on 4.4.2, so he most likely has the A3 bootloader. You cannot restore back to MJ5 once you're on the A3 bootloader.
Looks like the only way is going to be Best Buy

im guessing carl1961 fix should be good for the ones stuck on a3 bl's but not sure. if you softbrick again after that then a reflash of nc2 is the way to go.

Let me guess. You wiped your stock slot clean then rebooted? LOL
You need to get with @carl1961 and he'll get ya back and running. Don't even think about the "restore to mj5" thread. You have the locked bootloader and it wouldn't work for you.

I have no idea. I was attributing it to the fact i did a full wipe in advance. I cheeked all expect micro SD then flashed Dynamic Kat and the theme. Then it wouldn't get past the Samsung Logo screen.
Maybe it was an MD5 mismatch...

First, we're you useing Safeway? And are you sure you didn't have "wipe sd" checked.? Sounds like you need to do a full restore. Follow the instruction to a "t" and you should be fine.

If you reset the phone you will still be rooted, any apps you deleted will still be gone, it will delete any apps you installed. If you are on MI1 and want to go back to where you were then you need to find the Odin build for MI1 and use Odin to flash it. I am not sure what having SS on your phone will do if you Odin back but to be safe, if you have SS installed I would un install it.

So couldn't I just get the RDLV I originally used and flash it..? I think it was like 1.8gb because it included mi1.
I may even still have it.
So you say to essentially re-perform the RLDV procedure?

If you still have your RDLV it should work just fine. If you want true stock MI1 then you need to find that firmware and flash it in Odin. If you want to keep root then use your RDLV.

What version of Kingo did you try? Use 1.1.5 or 1.1.8. People have had success with that. 1.1.8 worked for me. Just Google around and you will find the download on the net somewhere.

Factory Reset after the update to NB4, also go to recovery wipe cache, then try the 1.18, during the rooting process, look your phone screen, you need to click accept something twice,
I don't know how it all works terribly well but you said you still have Safestrap? Can you still install ROMs and can they have root?
Also, for when you eventually do get it working again. I recommend freezing the ATT updater. It can be awful when it eventually FORCES an update.
I got a free app called App Quarantine and froze "AT&T Software Update".

You will just have to follow the restore to MJ5 thread. The instructions are simple and very easy to follow. Go slow and follow them to the T.
What they do not mention however is do not use a 3.0 USB port. Only 2.0 will work.
Just follow that.
It is literally impossible to brick this phone to the point of it being unrecoverable. There is a tutorial to restore from hard bricks without J-Tag.

It has to be unzipped and on the internal. You have to reboot a few times for it to activate. After the first reboot, let the phone sit for a few minutes and then reboot again. You should be good to go after that.

Hey there.. was using Knoxraid.. a new Alliance ROM hit and I installed it. Nope.. I did not go back to Jellybean first so I had an endless NFC quit working message on my phone when I tried to boot. Couldn't go back to KR because the root wasn't showing up in recovery and I don't have an SD card. Long story short.. I reinstalled stock Kitkat 4.4.2 through ODIN and now the phone is not rooted. Kingo root doesn't do it. Is there a method yet to root 4.4.2?

Unfortunately stock roms can't go back. Builds ending with NC2 can't revert to NB4, MJ5, nor MI9. Once root is obtained we'll be able to install safestrap and have more options then. But we have to patiently wait for root access.

I tried the MJ5 restore with my build number ending in MLG but my phone gets stuck on the Samsung Note 3 logo! I tried to wipe the data and factory reset but it doesn't work. I always have to use the oneclick to go back to MLG I want to root but there is no available way to nor can I flash roms. I'm stuck and I think its because of my bootloaders! Does anyone have a fix?
Ive seen many people mention that I can get my Note 3 updated to KK at Best Buy, but I had some questions. Did I have to purchase at BB in order to do this? (I bought directly from ATT). Also, is there any disadvantage to doing this, other than I assume it will wipe all the data on the phone? Seems it might be easier than going through all the hoops to get to KK. Wanted to check before doing anything though.
Thanks!

Cool. I have an n900t, so I was curious about what he was truly asking. So you guys can't just Odin a stock .tar image?
So heimdall also can't just flash all these for you bypassing the Odin/heimdall mix? I don't have an n900a to play with, so I can't test myself.
Only asking as it seems heimdall should be able to restore you to factory without having to flash single files through odin, and then use heimdall later.
If this is the only way to update good luck. But seriously, doing it once, you become a pro. I've had to restore my phone several times in the middle of the night trying several methods to recover my data. To me it is fun, but I do understand as well.

On our restore to mj5 method we use heimdall to flash just the edited mi9 system then do stock recovery to flash the mj5 update. I never understood it bit it seems like we cant flash the system image through odin, at&t never updated kies. U guys are lucky with unlocked bl and odin tars available.

Yes. I vowed to straight up pay full price for phones now just so I don't have to jump through hoops in order to root, restore, etc... It will be expensive, but I figure $800 every two years or so can't hurt too much. I'm not rich by any means, but really tired of not "owning" my device. I save $40 a month into my phone plan, then cash it out when I find something I like.

Thanks. I guess the second part is whether the restore they do will have any long term negative effects? I mean I just want to get on KitKat stock and then I can come home and apply towel root and call it a day. Should this be an issue? If there is anything not the same so to speak I would invest the time to do it manually. Thanks
I ended up going to BB today. Unfortunately they couldnt flash it. They said that the system showed it wouldnt work. Although I didnt tell them this, I did have it rooted at one point but I removed the root before brining it. Its on NB4. Although it does still show the lock during start up but is definitely not rooted. Any idea what I have to do to allow their system to work, or should I just bite the bullet and do it myself via this link?

Right...removing SS with not remove root from your rom. .SS is the recovery. Are you trying to unroot your phone?
No I would like to back to stock rom altogether I don't like how I lost 30gb of space buy using safestrap
Sent from my SM-N900A using Tapatalk
Safestrap does not do that... The only way to do that is to create all the ROM slots.
If you are flashing ROMs the right way, (in the stock slot) you are taking up less space than the stock ROM.
Go the the general section if you want to return to stock. Find the NC2 restore thread.
I used stock rom slot and it is showing 32 total space when I have 64gb
Sent from my SM-N900A using Tapatalk
Because most people have the 32gb model. It is what the ROMs are built from. It will say you lost 30, but I promise you didn't.
Oh so it's a false positive then

Did you open the safe strap app and click remove recovery? If not reinstall the app, click remove recovery, then uninstall the app.
i thought i did that when i re flashed the stock Rom.... would i need to re-root?

Hmm, you may have to. The app asks for root privileges when you open it.
