First don't worry.
It is international note2 version as download mode says it's GT-N7100.
Download latest firmware of your country for your phone. Download whole ROM, not only kernel/recovery or modem. Download full ROM from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1896696 thread.
Follow the steps proper from that thread.
If still having problem, post your odin log. Also mention OS of your PC.

Just need a pit files please ! BRICK

Hello guys,
I was on omera with redpill kernel but due to hardwares problems (battery wasn't very good), I wanted to prepare my note for garanty.
So I tried to flash a stock firmware with odin. It failed and I'm now strucked at "firmware upgrade encourtered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again". I have tried eveything and now I know that there is a problem with pit partition. I would like to flash a new pit file in odin but I can't find one (galaxy note 2 7100)
So if anybody can send me one I'll be very happy.
Thanks
If ur download mode still working try to flash ur stock rom via odin first, if it doesn't work and u need a pit file go and look at dr. Ketan thread, u will find what you want there..

[Q] Bricklooped by 4.4 OTA update, PIT file?

Downloaded and installed OTA KitKat update on my note, phone was perfectly stock, not rooted. After installation the phone is stuck in a bootloop and displays "BOOTING RECOVERY..." but cannot boot to recovery, just restarts over and over.
Tried reflashing via ODIN the stock 4.4 update with stock recovery. Also tried flashing TWRP, Philz and the phone will never boot into recovery - it never gets past the Galaxy Note 3 logo screen.
It occurred to me that there could have been some problem with the PIT that occurred during the initial flash but I cannot flash any of the SM-N900T .pit files found floating around the forum either! The phone returns the SECURE CHECK FAILED: PIT error. Seems like the PIT may need to be a signed file in 4.4? Anyone have a signed PIT file?
Bring to tmobile show Em it won't boot. New phone in mail 2 days later. Just did it last week

Unfortunately I'm not in the US and I don't have t mobile so warranty replacement won't be so easy.

None so far.
I'm not seeing any PIT files that will flash under the 4.4.2 bootloader.

Did you ever try using Odin 3.7? I for some reason can flash the PDA file but I have a different PIT file which obviously seems not to work... I think I just need the correct PIT file but am unsure where to get it for 4.4.2... This new update has been a nightmare..

Yeah, I tried odin 3.7, 3.9 and hemidall. Same results, secure check fail: Pit
Update: Looks like there are two versions of the 4.4BL, the latest of which checks for a signed PIT file. It won't work to flash any 4.4 pit from say, a few months ago. Need a PIT fie from someone who updated their phone in the last 2-3 weeks.
*** Nevermind, after a third Odin flash it worked.
Same thing happened to me, stuck on "BOOTING RECOVERY". Any resolution to this?
No solution that I've found. I've tried flashing multiple SM-N900T pit files found on XDA, all return the SECURE CHECK FAIL: PIT error. The phone will not boot into the stock recovery and returns the RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING error with custom recoveries. I've tried the latest versions of TWRP, CWM, etc with the same results.
As this update isn't really out in the wild recently I'd say that updating to 4.4 OTA is a pretty big risk at this point.

Did you say it was recognized in Kies but firmware recovery failed? If so, and you were using Kies (not Kies 3), we may assume the last system update was not older than Android 4.1.1. I'll suggest you try these steps (in that order),i.e. if one doesn't work, try the next step ..
1. Try booting into recovery mode and doing a hard wipe/reset
2. Download the correct stock image from the thread below and flash via Odin. If you need help with flashing via Odin, please let me know
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1739426 or visit Sammobile.com to download the correct stock image.
3. Open Kies. Do not connect the phone yet. Go to Tools => Firmware Upgrade and Initialization. Enter your phone model name (SGH-I747)=>OK and serial number. Check device information inside the battery compartment. Wait for firmware download to complete and you are prompted to connect the phone and follow the rest of the on-screen instructions.
4. Contact the vendor to find out what they did wrong and see what refund options you have
Ok, so I also wasn't able to get into recovery.
I decided to flash cwm via odin. After it flashed the phone rebooted and turned on normally. I have turned it on and off like 5 times and everytime it boots normal.....But, there is still a problem... baseband version is Unknown and there is no IMEI Number.

hi, yes those were the steps I tried and the result was fail. Now that I can boot it, it shows its 4.3 but no baseband and no imei.

Oh, it's 4.3. Perhaps even better because you may be able to flash the 4.3 restore image. Your baseband/modem is corrupt or missing which is why it's showing the no baseband message.
Please see the thread below for the complete 4.3 stock restore image. Download the stock restore image and flash via custom recovery.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2658486
Or you may just flash the 4.3 JB modem via custom recovery since you have custom recovery working. The modem zip can be found here ...

I suggested custom recovery and not custom ROM. The idea is to get your phone back in working order first. Flashing a complete stock restore image should do it. Please refer to the thread I forwarded earlier. You should be able to flash custom recovery (like CWM or TWRP) to your phone via Odin and then use the custom recovery to flash the stock restore image.

[Q] ODIN Fail on Unroot and Restore Stock Attempt

I am trying to unroot and restore stock ROM so that I can sell my Note 2014 10.1.
I am using ODIN 3.09 and P600UEUCNK1_P600XARCNK1_HOME.tar.md5
ODIN keeps giving me a FAIL. Looks like "Cant Open Serial Port". I have attached a screen shot from ODIN.
Any ideas as to what I can do here?
Thanks
You need to extract the zip file, and edit .md5 off the end, leaving a .tar file to flash. Make sure you unroot via superuser, then factory reset, then download mode.....Will take 7-9 minutes. Wait for reboot, and removed to show in ODIN. Just did this myself, and device shows official, and recovery is stock, without even the Knox splash showing recovery bit! Easy breezy. I flashed on top of 4.4.4 bootloader the 4.4.2 .tar, and let it update OTA. T-Mobile P607-T Gluck!
Worked like a charm my friend...Thanks so much

I followed these steps. Flashed same tar file, and successful install. Although i cant update software because says my version has been modified. Anyway to still get updates and be totally stock?
Flash updates from Kies instead OTA is never going to work again.

Please could anyone had the steps ... the same issue is faced with Note 10.1 Gt-8000
I' m using N8000XXUDNF2_N8000OJVDNF3_N8000XXUDNF1_HOME.tar with ODIN 3.07 which is detecting the com 3 or com 6 with it, and failing always and the device is stopped at either ODIN MODE if I used the volume down plus power or at Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. please select recovery mode in kies and try again... it would never enter to the recovery mode or Bootloader, please advise... thanks in advanced.

Note 2 N7105 doesn't reboot after flashing to stock 4.4.2

Dear all,
I just have a serious problem with my Note 2 N7105. I bought this phone with a rooted 4.3 androit and everything worked fine beside using the automatic update function (over the air update of android).
Therefore I downloaded the german 4.4.2 from Sammobile and flashed it with odin.
sammobile.com/firmwares/download/32565/N7105XXUFNE3_N7105DBTFNE1_DBT
Odin flashed completely with any errors . -> All threads completed. (succeeded: 1 / fail: 0)
But unfortunately it is not rebooting to androit nor reboot into recovery mode. After turning on the phone, I can see the samsung logo and after that it tried to boot and a red exclamation mark pops up and it's restarting again. The only possible thing is to get into the download mode again.
I also downloaded the german 4.3 version from sammobile and flased it with odin - but results stay the same.
I would be very happy about any help. Sorry in advance for my unprofessional explanation.
make sure you have downloaded the right tar file for your samsung

Could fix it meanwhile - it wasn't a problem of the tar file - the tar file was correct - but whyever the recovery was broken after downloading and installing the cwm recovery I was able to get into the recovery mode again and afterwards also successfully install the stock 4.4.2 tar file from sammobile.
Cheers,
mr_moods
