Hi all,
I have purchased galaxy note 3 in Pakistan and it is AT&T unlocked phone means I can use my own network (Telenor) in Pakistan. Currently my phone is on 4.4.2 and I don't find any software update option in about device in settings menu nor through kies 3. I want to update my phone to Lollipop edition manually.
Things I have tried so far, downloaded ROM from sammobile and it is UK region BTU ROM. Downloaded Odin v3.10 and ran it as administrator and select the .tar.md5 file in AP box. No other options I selected but the default ones. But after detecting my phone Odin starts writing but after some time it failed showing me a message NAND write failed, auth error.
I have tried both Odin version v3.09 and v3.10 but both failed.
What can I do to solve this.
My phone configurations are:
Model: SM-N9005
Android: 4.4.2
Bootloader, Baseband: N900AUCUCNC2
CSC, PDA: N9005ZSUCND2
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The n900a has a locked bootloader which could explain the Odin error.
The Sm-9005 and n900a are different phones and att never had the n9005. Is the phone new or used?

Thanks that you replied. I got a used phone. when I check about device, it tells me that Model is SM-N9005 and also removing battery and seeing there model number is same i.e. SM-N9005. And also I am using a different network here in pakistan instead of AT&T, it means phone is unlocked.

Does the imei from *#06# give you the same imei as on the label under the battery?

yeah, both are same.
Is the phone model an Sm-n9005 in download mode? If it is, the phone is not from att.

In download mode, model is SM-N900A . So, I am unable to install BTU ROM on this model. Am I right??
Looks like something is wrong in that the models numbers do not match. Download mode says 900a and the software says 9005. Something is not right with the phone.
Looks like my phone is SM-900A in download mode. so I can't install UK region ROM on this. So, I think my problem is solved. Thanks to everyone who answered.

Well first off, according to the firmware, it seems you have the AT&T version. The label on the phone is wrong, in fact, that label looks fake. The font is wrong.
Anyway, I am assuming you want to stick with the AT&T firmware for this. Use the stock build, it's the easiest to root.

Warning: That will BRICK your device!!!
You're running OF2, on the G900A that version contains an updated bootloader and blows a qfuse. You can't ODIN back to NCE from that build. You're stuck on OF2.
Unfortunately, there is no ODIN file for you to restore the OF2 installation, so you have to ODIN to OI5 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=53454972&postcount=1 first link)

Congratulations for your advice . Samsung S5 is now working . a big thanks from my 13 years old boy , you saved his birthday !
hey all.
i need some serious help here.
i have the same problem.
it's a little different from yours.
i've just bought a samsung S5 G900f as the phone info says and the sticker under the battery as well.
my phone is running kitkat 4.4.2
and can't get any update via software update.
for the record, the phone shows the AT&T software update which means i need an AT&T SIM card to get an update.
i'm frm morocco and if its An AT&T version of s5 , that means it was unlocked.
when i go to bootloader it says G900A....
as well as the download mode says it's a G900A
i took my EMEI and put it in emei.info website they said it is a G900f.
i installed an app from play store called phone info.
it says that my phone has A G900A bootloader , A G900A baseband version , an AT&T finger print build , and an AT&T original CsC code and an AT&T firmware's CsC code and states that the Csc country is Usa and the hardware revision is G900A.00
but on the other hand it says that my build number is G900FZHU1AND1.
please, anyone here can help me out with this.
what phone model do i have ?
what firmware should i flash via odin ? the G900f or G900A one?
will flashing An AT&T firmware lock my device network again if it was obviosly unlocked?
Please guys i need help.
anyone can help me out [emoji20]

Flash a G900F firmware and if it bricks come back here for unbrick instructions. Sounds to me like your seller flashed a G900A firmware on a G900F.
Network locks are carrier-side, not device-side. No matter what you flash, if the device was unlocked it will remain unlocked.

ok buddy.
thank you i'm gonna try and flash A G900f firmware , and let you know then.
despite the fact that i have a G900A bootloader which is locked and means it won't let me flash anything else but G900A firmwares.
for the record , when i access download mode it says it's a G900A.

1)If it's region related then it will work For Eg. Latin American Countries/Asian Countries/Korean Countries Firmware Interactions Etc. SO if You Will Latin American Firmware Over/On Asian Countries Obviously It Won't Work I Guess You Got Wat I Wanna Say And By Seeing Your Screenshot Info I Guess XSG Is Available CSC for Your Device So You Shouldn't Get Any Error While Flashing XSG Firmware Or CSC Only Through Odin
2) Also Your Device Shouldn't Be Carrier Locked For Specific Region Then You Can Flash Different Countries Firmware For CSC Change
3)You can also flash CSC Only Through Odin By Downloading Desired CSC Stock Firmware>Etract It To Get 5 Files>Boot Device Into Download Mode>Open Odin On PC> Select CSC TAB In Odin And CSC.tar.md5 (Not HOME_CSC.tar.md5 As its Your Own Country)>Odin Will Flash Different Desired CSC For Your Device> Your Device Will Reboot Automatically And Hopefully CSC Should Be Changed
Note :- Dont Forget To Enable OEM Unlocking And USB Debugging Options From Developers Option Before Flashing Anything Through Odin
Many Thanks ....i will try it today ...i will search for UAE CSC now..

Hey everybody. My samsung galaxy is bootlooping, already tried everything except installing a new firmware. But i don't know which a i need to install, i just know its have to be a unlocked, because I live in Brazil, and saw that if install the wrong one I will have some problems. And what version of Odin should I install?
Thank you very much for the help
PS: My samsung model is SM-G975U1
PS 2: I'm brazilian, sorry for the grammar.
You need the current U1 firmware from sam mobile. The Odin to use is the patched version floating around the forums here. It's version 7.1.4-patched or something I don't know, just look for patched Odin.
