WHY oh WHY

So, I have a Note 3 that I am trying to upgrade (from 4.2 maybe). Kies and Kies 3 do not recognize my phone. When I tried to Odin it, I got an error and the message, "firmware upgrade encountered an issue". I've tried reflashing, but nothing helps. I feel like an idiot that I cannot figure this out. I have read and read. I have downloaded:
N900A_OC1_Stock(100%).zip
AP_N900AUCUEOC1_CL4335446_QB4210025_REV03_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5

N900AUCUEOC1_N900AATTEOC1_N900AUCUEOC1_HOME.tar.md5
So, I've tried different ways and I cannot figure out what I am doing wrong. I have tried with Odin 3.09 and 3.10.6. I cannot use the zip file since I can't seem to get my phone into recovery with the error message above.
Can someone provide me with some guidance (in very simple steps)? Much appreciated.

I always flash the NC2 files with Odin 3.09 and never had a problem. Ones I flash from here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54803130&postcount=136 Just so you know, I flash all four files BL,AP,CP and CSC never the All in One. :good:

I just tried to download the files and I'm getting an MD5 error on the AP file.
Any thoughts? And thanks for your help.
I tried a download from 4 other sites before finally getting rid of the MD% error. Hopefully this will flash now. Thanks again for your help.

Stupid question, it is AT&T phone. You can try to delete the .md5 at the end of the file name. Should look like this after AP_N900AUCUCNC2_722276_REV03_user_low_ship_MULTI_C ERT.tar

You try downloading the "All-in-one/Non-Wipe Tars" instead and Odin it in the AP slot? http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-3-att/general/100-stock-lollipop-5-0-n900aucueoc1-t3069609 You don't Odin any other files, if you use the ALL-in-One file.

put the extracted firmware files into c:\odin
delete hidden.img and cache.img
then the command in cygwin to change to that directory would be
cd /cydrive/c/odin
then enter the re-tar command as described in my guide and flash the n910f.tar file with odin! this will work 100%!
Sorry guys.. can i flash N910FXXU1COH4 HUI (h3g italy) on my no branded note?
I uploaded to Mega the tar file without error Too Big. Just flash with odin.

Ok finally got through the change directory, created the tar as described and flashed it with Odin. Stuck in bootloop. Tried installing twrp recovery, either failed with odin or when trying to boot into recovery it automatically went into download mode.
Flashed my regions stock rom through kies emergency recovery. Boots up fine, works fine. Next flashed the 5.1.1 Tar image. Same problem, endless booting sequence (gets up to home page and then reboots).
Anyone have some suggestions?

Help with repartitioning !!!

My note 4 (n910t) won't repartition... When I push start in Odin it says repartition failed and on the download mode screen on the note it says MMC: mmc_read_fail
I'm flashing stock firmware with the right pit file but it won't let me because the phone has an MMC read fail. Does anyone know how to fix this?
Are you getting the correct rom from sammobile? If not make sure you're using the correct rom version for your phone. A 910t needs a 910t rom. the stock version won't flash through Odin if you're pushing 910t3 on accident.

It is a n910t rom... It's cod6. But I think that the problem for it not being able to repartition is because it say MMC read fail on the phone screen when I push start on Odin.
Copy paste everything odin says... type EVERYTHING your phone screen says. and.... you DON'T have the 910t3 version of the note 4.... correct? Have you tried kies yet?

"No OS installed" T-Mobile Note 4

Hey everyone,
I hope I posted this in the proper area. I've run into a problem with my Note 4. I wiped it and now if I try to reboot from TWRP, it says theres no OS installed. If I do reboot, it gets stuck on the samsung Note 4 screen.
I need to get this up and running asap. Could someone please help?
I have TWRP 2.8.7.0 installed and I have Odin 3.09 on my desktop. I would really appreciate detailed instructions and download links to anything else I may need so that I can get my Note 4 up and running again.
Thank you.

That's my problem. I haven't been able to find any rom for Note 4. Last I remember, there wasn't anything on sammobiles for Note 4. Would love a stock firmware right now so I can flash it.
UPDATE: I found a stock firmware from this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/no...uide-odin-to-stock-unrooted-firmware-t2957156
just tried to flash it and I got a fail. I followed the instructions exactly but it failed.
Any idea why? Or what I should do?

did you try: https://forum.xda-developers.com/no...om-n910t3uvu3epj2-stock-rooted-odex-t3501592?
Also, I would update to latest TWRP (3.0.2, i think)
I would just Odin back to stock firmware if you dont have a backup. you probably wiped the wrong partition or something, I've seen this message before too and that's how I got my phone working again

Nothing unfortunately. Just to be sure I did it right ... I downloaded the kernel zip file in that thread. Transferred it to my sd card, loaded it back onto my phone, went into twrp, hit install, found the zip file and installed it. a few seconds later, it was done. I rebooted. It went to the logo screen again and then it back to TWRP. IDK what to do anymore

So, the COD6 seems to be damaged or something. I couldn't use it. And the ANK4 I already had and still getting a fail.
It's been a long time since this occurred. IDK if this helps but when the phone was still up and running. For some unknown reason, I went to my app drawer and uninstalled/deleted Superuser. Could that be a reason why I'm having an issue flashing my Note 4 back to stock?
Could someone possible send me a backup file from a Note 4 so that I could restore my phone and then factory reset? Maybe that'll get my phone up and running.
YES!!! I fixed it!!! Why didn't anyone tell me that I couldn't flash a stock (kitkat) rom if I had previously updated to Lollipop or Marshmallow? Fortunately, while searching "write fail: aboot" a thread came up and someone mentioned it so I downloaded a marshmallow rom and that was it. I'm up and running now.

Nand Erase In ODIN ( *** SOLVED *** )

Guys,
I need an urgent help. Here is my Story..
Using 9208 Note 5 model. After trying different custom roms i tried to flash stock firmware using Odin. Did everything correctly. Unfortunately i checked Nand Erase all option too. The result is my Note 5 stuck at Samsung DimDim logo. For almost 1 hour. Tried reflash several times but no luck..
So i flashed twrp and wipe data and factory reset and reboot. Its works. But problem with voLTE. No voLTE working. I know flashing JIO voLTE fix will solve this but i need a solution for this Odin. I dont want to flash voLTE fix.
Can someone help me pls.. How to bypass that Samsung logo without flashing Twrp.. ?

Well that's because you erased everything including your partitions so now you need to find the .PIT file for your exact model and select it in odin while flashing the firmware again.

I need to know the firmware version that you were on before this problem started.. The PIT file is always inside of the firmware you download all you need to is unzip it from within the .zip..

You can only downgrade if you have firmware that's bootloader version 4 because you're currently on bootloader version 4 and you cannot go back down to bootloader version 3 or earlier because that's been blocked by Sammy.. If you need the PIT file it's inside of the firmware that you downloaded you just need to extract it from the file. If you have the firmware G935FXXS4ESC6 then unzip it and then unzip them again and you'll find the PIT file in there.. It's usually inside of the CSC .tar file.

Thanks for your kind support, as per your suggestion after unzip the csc file i found the pit file . Now should i select Nand Erase & Re-Partition options after inserting the pit file. Is it safe to select these options?
I have flash so many time with same firmware, flashing was ok but still i'm facing same problem.

You can do that yes and if that doesn't fix your problem then there must be something wrong with the phone itself. For your information though you're asking for help in the Galaxy Note 5 thread but you're on a Galaxy S7 Edge.. I do think a moderator might end up moving this to the correct place.
