Write potecton simply means that this newer version of the galaxhttp://romcook.com/?d=531CB2E216y has............wait fo it...............A LOCKED BOOTLOADER.................. Essentially, you will have to use a software tool to create a checksum hash code for your knox protected bootloaderand ulitmately unlock it. cheers.

All I can say.
It has been flashed before and is running a custom rom/recovery.
Knox is tripped. Flash binary is tripped.
Knox counter is a one time programmable efuse that cannot be reset anyhow. It can be a warranty void issue in many areas.
Thus you wont be able to use the KNOX containersnow.
Write protection enabled means a locked bootloader. Just simple.

N9005 Cannot Flash Stock ROM

HI,
Im trying to load a stock firmware onto my 32GB N9005 Note 3, but its failing when the flash starts.
I downloaded a HK version of 5.0 ([247616]»˝–«_N9005_N9005ZSUGOL1_÷–π˙œ„∏€(TGY)_5.0.20160317183141.tar) , and it fails at some security check at the start ( Fail(Auth).
Id like to do one of 2 things:
1) Figure out how to fix the security problem so i can load the stock 5.0 on to it
or
2) I also downloaded the stock 4.4.2 , but its not in a tar.... its come in a folder with 6 files.
AP_xxxxxx.tar
BL_xxxxxxx.tar
CP_xxxxxxxx.tar
CSC_xxxxxxxx.tar
HLTE_HKTW_OPEN_16GB.pit
HLTE_HKTW_OPEN_32GB.pit
Can i use odin to flash the 4 files in 1 go to update to the stock version?
The phone was bought from China about a while ago, and its currently running a version of 4.4.4. It looks to me like its running a custom ROM, which was preinstalled from the dodgy place i bought it from, details are below:
Baseband: N9005XXUGNG1
Build Number: DONGCHAO.A429
Kernel Version:
3.4.0-2593013
[email protected] #1
Friday Nov 28 14:31:10 KST 2014
Hardware 1.06
Philz Touch also installed.....
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks

Im not sure how to tell.
When i enter download mode i see:
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: SM-N900P
CURRENT BINARY : CUSTOM
SYSTEM STATUS: CUSTOM
KNOW WARRANTY VOID: 0x1 (2)
QUALCOMM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE )CSB_
RP SWREV: S1, T1, R1, A3, P1
SECURE DOWNLOAD: ENABLE
UDC START
Its interesting the product name is not matching my expectation. do all sm-n9005 show sm-n900p in download mode?
G

I guess the mb has been changed. It's not n9005 anymore.

Sent from my GT-N7000

It's not an N9005. It's an N900P therefore download an N900P version of the firmware.

In case anyone wonders in the future what happened with this.... I basically gave up. Something has obviously been reworked on the phone, into a state that i'm pretty unhappy with messing with. I don't need to update it enough to push on, seems like the chances to kill it, or find myself with a phone that no longer supports lte, are too high.
Top tip: When you're buying from China.... you never get what you expect.

If lock is on, there is no chance to flash new recovery? I stuck with one phone, buddy of mine gave me some old note3, with samsung account and reactivation on, so I wonder if this is new shiny door holder or I can actually install something?

Did you try installing a stock ROM from sammobile.com? Not sure if flashing an older or newer ROM will make a difference.
Apparently, there are methods to bypass the lock.

HEEEELP!!!!Galaxy core prime Sm-g360t1 Odin Mode brick :(
