After a stock firmware for the N920I - Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I had my phone turn off, and when I turned it back on I got the FRP lock message.
So I tried factory resetting it, still wouldn't boot.
I grabbed a firmware from firmwarehome<dot>com and tried to flash it after doing the Volume down+home+power to get into odin.
After hitting start with Odin it fails and I get a "SW REV, CHECK FAIL, DEVICE: 4, BINARY: 3" message.
I've tried downloading what they say is a stock firmware from sammobile, but after registering, selecting the free subscription and clicking download, it just tries to get me to sign up for a subscription and won't let me download it.
Is there somewhere else I can get the stock samsung firmware for this thing so I can get it back up and running? Or is there something else I can try?

I think I have experienced such a situation. I facing the problem like you such before because I unchecked the OEM unlocking under the developer setting. After that I restart/off the device then facing error FRP message. So I just reflashing the firmware using odin ver 10 for sm n9208 samsung note 5 odin.after done it solved.
what android version that you using?is device rooted?
ref:Marshmellow android using twrp custom recovery and kernal........before this time i'm using..
Now-->original firmware nougat so sad gaiss..not ready at all for rooted again..?

HELP! Did I brick my new note 3? :(

Hey guys. Ive had a note 3 before in the past and have used the Root DelaVega to root successfully. This was early in the year. I sold my old note 3 for an HTC One. Well today i traded my HTC One back for a note 3 as i missed the Note 3. As soon as i came home i attempted to use the Root DelaVega method to foot (just like i did before) and immediately it failed.
I have been stuck on a screen saying "firmware update encountered an issue - select recovery in Kies" so i tried Kies 3.2 however it says my device is not compatible. Come to find out after doing research (talking to the original owner i traded my HTC One for) the Note 3 i have is on the latest version of KitKat 4.4.2 that is not compatible with the Root DelaVega method or any root method - so i screwed that up. I can successfully boot in and out of download mode. Ive tried to flash N900XXUDNA6 4.4.2 in Odin several times, it begins then fails almost immediately and the bar on the phone itself (in download mode) begins then freezes shortly after beginning. Ive also tried to flash N900XXUDNC1 JellyBean thru odin and get the same results - almost immediately fail and the blue status bar on the phone freezes when it barley begins. What else can i do??? am i totally screwed? Ive been researching and trying to fix this for 6 straight hours now! My gf is about to kill me for being online so long Is there anything i can do at this point? Am i stuck
[UPDATE] .after looking around all day i have found i am able to successfully flash the n900a AP, CP, and PIT files, however the problems seems to be whenever i try to flash a Bootloader file. The update gives me the error on the phone "SW REV CHECK FAIL" FUSED 3 BINARY 2. My knox counter is still 0x0. By flashing the at&t AP, PIT, and CP files the phone now boot loops and no longer takes me to the screen requesting me to restore thru KIES. However all it does it bootloop. I try to boot into recovery and it will tell me at the top left of the screen "booting recovery" but then just turn off and go right back to the "samsung galaxy note 3 screen" Does anything have any idea here?????

Is there a tar for the AT&T firmware? I've searched but this was all I could find.

Yeah, it seems that the N900XXUDNA6 is not for the US Variant
"N900XXUDNA6 Android 4.4.2 KitKat official firmware update for Galaxy Note 3 SM-N900 is now rolled out by Samsung. This is the first KitKat official firmware for Galaxy Note 3 SM-N900. The firmware update rolled out in various countries including Sri Lanka, Nepal, Indonesia, Singapore, Vietnam, Kazakhstan, Ukraine, Russia, Thailand and India"
The DNA6 would be for the SM-N900 Exynos CPU devices, not the SM-N900A Snapdragon. That is probably your problem (In addition to trying to roll back to JB from KK)
Unfortunately, I dont know of any stock KitKat firmware. There is MI9 on Samfirmware's site, but that is JB not KitKat

You could try to stop the boot, go back into Recovery and wipe cache, and wipe all data. I had an experience with my last device (SGSIII) that would boot loop sometimes when flashing back to a stock ROM.
Other than that, I dont have any other ideas
Just Googled the "SW REV CHECK FAIL" FUSED 3 BINARY 2", from what I found the Fused 3 means you were on Kit Kat, and Binary 2 basically means you are trying to downgrade to JB
It wont let me even boot into recovery. I hold the buttons and it boots back up saying "booting into recovery" like it is, then it just boot loops again.

The only other things I saw on that, suggested to users(on a different Samsung device) to use a jig to get it back into recovery. I am not familiar enough with the N3 yet to know if a jig will work on our devices. My guess is you messed up the bootloaders
Edit** I think that since things are so locked down that your best bet might be to try what jerrycoffman45 suggested a few posts ago

My local at&t and best buy aren't very helpful for anything at all. ill keep googling ive been at this for 2 days now
There is no firmware to download for 4.4.2 yet so you are stuck till there is or do what I suggested you could also do a warranty exchange by calling att and you can't just go to any att store it has to be a service center

only fix I know
as far as I have searched, the only current fix to get to use your phone is
GUIDE/ROM[4/1][AT&T][NC2_Bootloader][ N900AUCECMGL KITKAT][Stuck Download-Mode FIX]

unable to do emergency recovery after attempted firmware update.

I saw I had a update for my phone so I went though kies like normal and let it do its thing. The update downloaded but it didn't complete the update and now my phone is pretty much stuck in recovery mode with no options to do a factory reset and saying "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in kies and try again." I have tried this multiple times and with multiple cables including the one that came with the phone and pretty much a no go there. After those failed attempts I downloaded the current version from Sam Mobile and am trying to flash it with odin which is currently not going anywhere just sitting at system.img.ext4 and not progressing I have tried multiple versions of odin and it just keeps getting stuck at that point. Is there a way I can get my phone working again or am I screwed?
Check out this thread. It's an alternative to Odin. Thread if for S6 but this should work on the Note 4. I have not tried this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmo...p/flash-stock-firmware-using-samsung-t3079176
You shouldn't use kies use smartswitch.
Note 4 and S6 are setup for smartswitch.

soft-bricked odin passes same result

so i recently got a note 3 from a friend to fix for her. it boots to the samsung logo then vibrates and reboots over and over, recovery just says "booting recovery" then it goes blank and reboots to the same booting recovery screen, shes doesnt know what version it had prior to bricking. she said one day it was working then turned off and never back on again, the odin mode screen had a2, a3 on it ill post a pic later anyway i can get into download mode so i figured id just flash with odin and be good, i tried to narrow down the proper firmware with the a3, but after flashing nc2, nl1, oc1, im still stuck odin says everything passed, i tried flashing the big main file, tried flashing them in each box at the same time, even tried it with the pit file, tried flashing with odin 3.9 and 3.10.7. same result odin says passed still cant access recovery or os. any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks
Open Odin, uncheck everything except f reset time, flash rom. When you see reset on the statutes window, remove USB cable from the phone, remove battery, wait 5 seconds, replace battery, boot directly into recovery, perform a factory wipe, reboot.
does it matter what version i flash? since im not really sure what version it had prior?
I can't figure out how to upload a photo I have xda 4.0, and can't post outside links yet. Anyway
It says
Product name:N900A
Current binary: Samsung official
System status official
Knox void status 0x0
Qualcomm Secureboot enabled(csb)
Ap swrev s2 t2 a2 a3 p2
Secure download enable
Udc start
Hope that helps
Ran Odin again with the settings you said, after the battery pull the phone says recovery booting, then turned off vibrated twice then same screen again and again. Thanks for the suggestion though any our ideas? I was searching and thought I seen somewhere that to unbrick it it needs to be the same firmware it had before, but I don't know what that was.

You should probably ask her if she had Lollipop. If she did then that narrows it down to OC1 or OC2.
She doesn't know, not very phone literate as far as software, any ideas? I read in another thread to flash a modified version of nc2 but can't seem to find that version, this is the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2703006
Don't know if I can't find it, kinda confusing as far as what I need, like I said I've tried everything except oc2 cant find a link I've tried googling, and that thread says Odin files but can't find a full one for oc2, there's ones for safestrap but can't find Odin

I'm sure it can be fixed if you can get into download mode. On most devices, it will say cannot install update because the system has been modified if you have root. Try to get into doenload mode with power, vol-, and home. (If it has a home button.) Download firmware from here.
https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-G900T3/
You will need Odin and Samsung Universal USB drivers installed. Load the firmware into the AP/PDA slot and hit start.

Help on S10!

I was running the current version of Android 10 and wanted to downgrade to Android 9. I went and got the correct version of the stock rom from Sammobile and used Odin to flash it. The cable got unplugged while it was going through the flashing process and now I'm stuck on the option of connecting my phone to smartswitch to restore from backup, which I was able to. I'm also able to go back to the screen where it says "downloading, do not turn off target and I see this.

Any help on this is greatly appreciated before I go to ubreakifix for this. And my phone is still under warranty.
Have you tried using the firmware that was already on it before you tried flashing it.also try going into download mode using the button combination
Just flash the stock firmware, 4 files in odin u should be good
