Try the one click then.

Used odin and the phone looks a little better. But samsung kies says "unregistered device".

At&t firmware update failed also

I see there are a lot of problems when flashing i9000 roms on the captivate

I need help also I have flashed I9000 on may captivate and every thing goes fine after that I have tried to install root to fix orientation problem and used GalaxyS_One-Click_Root_All_Models but it got into recovery mode and the volume up and down works and change the selection while power button can't select any Item and Every time I restart the device it goes into recovery mode .!!!!!!
Can any one help going out from recovery mode ???!!!!!

I was having the same problem I think mine had something to do with the usb port either it was physically damaged or something else was going on I finally got it as close to stock as I could turned the phone off and took it to att rep so it would only boot into download mode, he scratched his head then handed me a new one.

Rooted Note 1 in bootloop after update

Hi everyone. I have a rooted Galaxy Note 1. I accidentally tried to update something (the phone said there was an Android update or something) and now my phone in stuck in a bootloop showing the Android logo. When I try to reset it (volume+home+power buttons) it goes to an Odin "Downloading..." screen and gets stuck on that.
I've seen some stuff about unbricking the phone using Odin to return to the original stock rom. But from what I can tell, there are different stock roms available depending on your Country Sales Code (CSC). So apparently I need to look in Kies for my CSC to know which rom to download, but Kies doesn't recognise the phone, I guess because it's bricked. I know the phone is from the UK, but I don't know what network it came from (I bought it second hand). All I know is that it is unlocked now.
I have CWM.zip, CWM-SuperSU-v0.87.zip, and franco.Kernel-r5.zip on the micro SD card from when I was rooting it ages ago. Do these have anything to do with fixing it?
Any ideas on where I go from here? Thanks for your help.

Which volume button did you press ? You need volume up + home + power to get into recovery.
You can flash any rom from any region using odin.

Same problem
Hey,
Thanks for helping me in advance...
I used the Custom ROM (( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1970626 )) Ultimate N7000 for a long time. However this build became more and more unstable the longer I used my phone.
So I decided to go back to STOCK.
So I followed this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997
And everything went well (Odin didnt give any errors)
However after reboot... the problem began... I cant turn my phone on anymore.... It seems to be stuck in a bootloop....
How can I fix this?? please help me

Which rom did you flash? If you flashed JB, boot into recovery and wipe data. Then reboot.

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?????

if you have a att note 3 you might be screwed both the firmwares you list are not for our phone your best bet would be to go to a best buy or att service center and seee if they can reflash your phone

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

[Q] Hard bricked S6 Help plz!

I rooted the S6 using cf auto root. I'm not quite a noob but please forgive my ignorance. I installed twrp and had been using the XtreStoLite rom for about a week. I was selling the phone so I wanted to reflash the rom so he could run through the setup him self. There were no problems flashing the rom. It was up and running. I was installing apps and the phone froze. I held down the power until it restarted. Now it is in an endless loop. The Galaxy S6 powered by android splash screen appears but it reloops before the Samsung splash screen appears. I can get the phone into download mode and I've tried to reflash the stock firmware, bootloader, stock recovery, everything. Odin recognizes the phone and it looks like it is working but as soon as it gets to NAND write it fails. I've been told it appears like the recovery partition was erased. I've used andnew versions of odin. My friend who knows a bit more than me tried backing up my working S6's efs and copying it to the bricked phone. He even did some stuff with my pit file. I'm at a total loss. I would send it back to Samsung but the phone is blacklisted by T-mobile and I don't want them to repo it. Any help is greatly appreciated and I would happily make a donation to anyone who can help me.

I guess I'll be the bearer of bad news here... You're screwed... Most likely. There is, however, a 0.0001% chance you can find someone who can make a copy or port of their recovery partition and TRY to put it on your device. This seems like a long shot, but it may be your only bet.
Don't count on this, as I have never personally seen it done before.

Did anyone get this up and running? I'm curious I have the same exact problem...

Try flashing unikernel v8 again inside twrp I bet it boots.
Side note never ever Advance wipe INTERNAL MEMORY
You'll wipe your internal memory backups the whole Firmware and even your boot.

I didn't read it all that you attempted Odin...
KEEP IN MIND
You have to odin the same firmware build you had on it stock So if it was OJC build YOU have to use Ojc You cannot go from a newer 5.1.1 build to one earlier anymore So try the latest build OJC
It won't fail I bet .

Duh. ???
Pp.

I have the same problem and when i turn to the download mode is written another model. I have tried several steps in odin came back failed. Anyone can help please support me.....

What's on the boot screen? If it says FRP Locked or something similar, you need to go into download mode (if possible), connect to ODIN and flash the stock ROM from Sammobile.com. It will flash the stock kernel, ROM, etc. DO NOT reboot your phone. Go to your settings, unlock developer options, and toggle OEM Unlock OFF. Then you can reboot your phone and attempt rooting again.

literally same **** happened to me homie
just did this ****

das youtube btw

Tmobile bricks the phone once someone black lists it and if you flash stock firmware...... always have custom rom installed and disable all network bands on dialer *#2263#

I also tried doing a recovery on ODIN and it keeps saying FAIL I used the right FIRMWARE but it says fail all the time

To use Xposed, you need a de-odexed rom. As for the Stock firmware, download Smart Switch from Samsung, reboot into download/odin mode, enter in your device S/N (White sticker on the back, you didn't tear it off, right?) and Model Num. and it'll get the correct firmware and flash it for you.
