"
Kies 3 has been updated recently and my phone is not in USB debug mode. So i have no idea what is wrong.... Please , help me (not rooted phone , wont root it )
Use odin to update. Download your rom from sammobile. You don't need root for that.

You also need to add some of the stuff it is written in download mode and the log in Odin when in fails. If you went to 4.4.2 on N9005 you can not return to 4.3 (which you should have read by now, there are only 200 posts in 50 threads about it). What kind of N9005 was yours (16/32/64GB), what region/CSC?

Hi All,
My problem :
I wanted to install the official kitkat rom but I made a big mystake : I took N900 files instead of N9005...
After that I successfully installed the right bootloader and CWM.

I tried to flash the complete official 4.4.2 rom but odin failed with message on the phone : "ODIN : invalid ext4 image"
Anybody has any idea to help me ?

After installing DBT NB4 FW ( or with Polish NB3 FW) my LTE speeds become almost 0.
I tried multiple installs.
Any guidance?
Quick tip: Uninstall KIES.
Kies is like a big brother.
Use ODIN 1.85 and tick update phone bootloader. That's how I fixed mine. The other versions of Odin wouldn't let me update bootloader.
Of course, before you do this Flash/wipe data in recovery mode.
But uninstalling KIES solved my issue.

Hello guys,
I tried to root my SM-N900 this morning. I've root my Note 2 before and i thought it would just be the same. Unfortunately as i am starting to root with Odin, i've waited for hours but Odin is still not done with the phone and the download bar progression thing didnt move an inch. So with regret i turned off the phone and now it is stuck on "firmware upgrade encountered an issue" screen. I tried to download firmwares from sammobile but failed at 99% with a message of Unknown Network Error. So with that, are there any other solution possible? I've also tried Kies, but it wouldnt recognize my phone..
@bluws just download any stock firmware for your phone and flash it later with Odin. Use Odin 3.04 or 3.07 if 3.09 failed.

Make sure you are using correct Ver of root, make sure kies not running in bag round when you flash threw Odin, take care of antivirus

Try to connect your phone from the KIES program in a mode of emergency restoration of firmware by Model phone type and Serial Number of the phone. This may take several hours. To do this, you need a good internet.

Did you previously disable Knox? If you didn't, that can cause random problems, read about it in the newest Chainfire's thread in recent post:

What kind of root process did you use Odin for?

Ty guys i got it working just by flashing a new stock rom. Tho now i am unable to call (no mobile services). Apparently it says that there are no sim card or something like that, does the region of the firmware i downloaded have something to do with it. Im living in indonesia (xse) but downloaded the russian stock i think.

Good it works again now!
Maybe it is just a baseband problem? I'm sure you will find an asian baseband only and be able to flash it.
Is your IMEI number still there? If yes, make sure to create backup of it now.

Hi everyone,
This is my first post and I hope that I am in the right section.
As per info in the thread title, I have a Malaysian Samsung Galaxy Note 3 updated to the last available firmware 4.4.2
I am trying to flash Lollipop with Odin (i followed all the instructions in the guide, literally step by step).
I have tried with the italian Lollipop update branded Vodafone, but Odin always failed and the phone was soft bricked.
I have reinstalled the original malaysian firmware 4.4.2 that i had prior this attempt. phone booted ok and worked perfectly fine.
Then i downloaded the lollipop firmware from poland, this thime odin completed the process and gives me a pass. but the phone goes in boot loop (samsung logo at booting never goes away). I have tried to reboot in recovery mode and wipe the cache. but still boot loop.
Would anyone be so kind to explain what i am doing wrong and how i could install lollipop on my malaysian galaxy note 3?
Any help would be much appreciated.

note 3 lolipop(Malaysia) N9005
Guys good news because this morning when I was checking my software update ... Thru Ota is about 860mb and thru keis 3 is about 1.3gb. Took me couple hours to download and about 1hour ++ to install. Booting up took some time and luckily everything is working fine for the time being.
Anyone updated and how's the battery draining issue.
i try update my note3 using kies3, it confirmed lollipop 5.0 available to update, but unfortunately my note3 repeatedly crash during upgrade and window on kies top up said "PC cant recognized my phone". Maybe cause of my knox warranty void 0x1 (trip). i hack on local C:\Users\YOUR NAME\AppData\Local\Temp and get copy of *.zip files (N9005DXUGBOD1_N9005OLBGBOD1_HOME.zip). It was lollipop firmware version for malaysia. Upgrade it using Odin and succesfull installed.
Lolipop
I was having the same issue while updating thru keis. So I downloaded it thru OTA. Battery sucks after lolipop. If you are facing any issue just send me a mail
Hi Guys, Please I need your help.
I purchased a used Samsung Galaxy Note 3 N9005 (LTE Hongkong TGY Variant) in the Philippines.
Its is not rooted. Android version still at 4.3 when i bought it.
Tried to update it via OTA at 32% it will fail and then reboot. No changes will be made after the reboot.
I tried to update it via Samsung Kies / Smartswitch it worked.
From Android Jellybean 4.3 , I updated it to Android Lollipop 5 via Kies / Smartswitch.
But........
After the update If i will use or touch a certain application the phone will start to reboot by itself.
This happens very often like every 15 minutes.
The batter drains fast and the device heats up like crazy when i use the camera or i open up a game app then it will reboot automatically.
-Tried to do a soft and hard reset already by pressing volume up, menu key & power of button,
I cleared the cache and wiped user data already. But still nothing has changed.
-Tried to re-update the handset via USB on Smartswitch for Android 5 Lollipop but its still the same.
Here are my Note 3 handset info:
-Handset is from Hongkong(TGY)
-Baseband Version before the update: N9005XXUBMI5 (Android 4.3)
-Baseband Version after the update: N9005ZSUGOL1 (Android 5) ( i provided a screenshot)
-Is it safe to update the phone via Odin 3.10, then get a Firmware from Sammobile then flash it?
-The phone is from Hongkong (TGY), should i choose a Firmware from Hongkong? Or Is it ok to choose a Firmware from the Philippines? since i am here right now.
-Is it okay to downgrade from Android 5 to Android 4.3 or 4.4.2? ( Would you recommend it or no?, others are saying if i have upgraded my handset to the latest android update I cannot go back anymore to a lower Android version, if i do i might encounter problems or worst case i might brick the phone.
-If possible i do not want to root my handset, but if it is needed im willing to do it.
Please guys , i need your expertise on this. I really need your help badly to get my phone on its working state again.
Your reply and tutorials will be much appreciated.
Thank you and more power.
