Are there any stock tars to flash through odin? I looked everywhere and cant find one. I'm stuck in a bootloop and my back ups and roms are on my external sd and twrp isnt reading it for some reason.
Edit: I flashed cwm and it cant mount my external sd either.
Update: I found an at&t stock tar, im downloading it now. I will update if it works.

That Rom is based off Kobridges FL16 deodexed JB Rom. Since we do not have source, the stock kernel only has stock recovery. In other words, you will not have cwm after flashing because of the stock kernel. What everyone is doing if they want to load zips is use mobile Odin to flash EL29 direct boot cwm or el26 cwm. Then flash whatever zip you need then flash stock TW JB kernel and reboot. Once you flash the stock kernel, it removes cwm.
Steps how I do it
DL EL29 direct boot cwm, save on sd
DL any zips you want to install
DL mobile Odin
Use mobile Odin flash EL29 direct boot cwm
When phone reboots to cwm, flash zips
Flash stock FL16 KERNEL
Reboot
Does anyone have a copy of the newest CWM .tar file? I need it to flash in Odin to get my phone out of soft brick. Can't use TWRP, keep getting errors and can't flash my phone back to stock, get errors there too. Tried downloading the newest CWM .img file and converting it but have no success there either. This is my last hope........
Hello, I have been here all night trying to recover my GS5 i747, I have TWRP but my phone does not seem to work with Micro SD cards, I was getting a blank SD error when it worked just fine in other phones. Does anyone here have a stock rom I can restore via Odin and be done with this once and for all? Apparently the phone is now wiped and I can only access TWRP and nothing else.
Any help would be appreciated.
Copy a CWM-flashable ROM to your SD card, install Philz Touch via Odin, boot to recovery, and try to flash the ROM.
If you do NOT have a 4.3 MJB bootloader, you can try flashing a stock ROM via Odin. If you have the 4.3 MJB bootloader, try restoring to stockusing these instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2658486
Trying to figure this out. Browsed forums for the last 24 hours, unable to come up with a way to figure it out. I was running Effortless rom, and older version that I can't remember, but it was on NF6 firmware. I wanted to play around with cm11 so I decided to flash back to stock NF6 then update to NF9 for the VOLTE update just to have it. So I triangled away, wiped then rooted and installed TWRP via ODIN, made a backup, everything went fine. Then I downloaded cm11 and gapps 4.4.4 and put them on my internal sd and went to flash in TWRP but cm11 was giving me errors. I figured it may have been TWRP so i decided to flash CWM but no go. It wouldn't stick. Tried again, no luck. Downloaded ROM Manager and this time I installed CWM through there. Tried rebooting in to recovery and ended up getting stuck in the "recovery booting" bootloop, so I flashed stock NF9(since I was on this firmware now) and tried installing CWM again, no luck. When I tried booting to recovery, it was stock NB4 recovery. I'm thinking that I'm stuck on an old bootloader and the recovery isn't NF9, which is the current stock recovery. I'm thinking that the reason why I'm unable to flash anything in TWRP/unable to install CWM at all is because of the stock recovery and possibly bootloader being NB4 for some reason while my baseband and build are both NF9. Any ideas/help would be appreciated. Thanks guys.

If I were you the first thing I would do is to ODIN flash TWRP recovery
and go from there.
Here is a direct download link for the latest odin flash twrp
custom recovery for the N900T Note 3:
https://app.box.com/AndroidShare
Once you get into twrp recovery do a complete wipe
which includes wipe data, system, cache, dalvik and
last but not least do a factory reset in twrp.
When that's done odin flash the official stock N900T NF9
firmware which can be found at http://SamMobile.com
After that's done you will need to odin flash cf-autoroot
and then odin flash twrp recovery again.
Here is the download link for cf-autoroot:
https://app.box.com/s/rgovggya5gkc51lc1uax
Then simply copy your favorite N900T zip file rom into
your internal sd and flash the N900T rom of your choice.
Be sure to do a full and complete wipe again before
flashing any custom roms.
Good luck!
My phone was rooted using Kingo Root, I flashed SlimKat rom, when I tried using Odin to flash back to stock, it bricked, it doesn't boot, it goes directly to "Firmware Upgrade Encountered an issue. Please Select recovery mode in Kies & try again"
I tried using Kies, it won't detect it, I had two techns who tried legally they can't do anything obviously, it won't even boot into recovery bootloader.
Is my phone really dead?
WOOO. Thank you XDA, all I had to do was flash a custom recovery again, and it booted no issues,
Odin probably tried to downgrade your bootloader. If you were on a bootloader at or beyond MJB that is probably what bricked your phone.
You might be able to bring it back with a debrick image. Debrick images are usually specific to your bootloader, so if you know what firmware you were running prior to this it would be helpful.
You'll need an external SD card to stand in for your internal storage until you get things synced back up, and you'll have to do some very specific formatting and image writing to that external SD.
Search the forums for debrick image and you should find some helpful threads. I've never had to do this myself, but I have heard some success stories. Good luck.
If you see the upgrade firmware screen, your phone is not totally bricked.
Can you get into download mode? If you can, just flash a custom recovery, flash the latest cm10.2, verify your boot loader, and post back here.

I can go into downloading mode, I flashed CWMS3ATTrecovery before thats what was on it.
Copy the most recent cm10.2 to an external SD card.
Use Odin to flash the most recent tar.md5 from Philz for the d2lte from here: https://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/d2lte/
After flashing Odin, boot to recovery and flash cm10.2 so you can get your phone running and determine the bootloader on your phone.
