Hello everyone,
I decided today to try and switch from aokp android 4.4.2 rom back to the official 4.3 update. I Factory reset and cleared cache, and then flashed the .tar file via odin, and it said it passed. Unfortunately, it gets to the flashing Samsung logo, and gets stuck there.. any suggestions on how to fix this?

What phone model and carrier do you use and where did you find an Odin flashable file for 4.3 JB? Do you have custom recovery installed on your phone?

The 4.3 ROM would have been better flashed as a zip file via custom recovery than Odin. I would suggest you first try booting into recovery mode and doing a hard wipe/reset. If this does not work, then you may try reinstalling the zip. Boot into download mode and flash custom recovery (cwm or TWRP) via Odin. Also copy the zip file you earlier downloaded (unextracted) onto an SDHC card or you may try another download via this link <http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23269279319199494>. If you are able to successfully flash custom recovery, don't allow the phone to reboot but remove the battery and insert the card. Then boot into custom recovery and flash the zip from the SDHC card. Clear the cache and reset and, hopefully, your phone will be back in business.

Thanks for the reply, I just downloaded a stock rom from samsung, and flashed via odin. It was successful, however even with the stock rom, I am still stuck in a boot load, and it still wont let me into recovery mode....
Solved!!
So I finally solved the issue. After I had flashed the stock rom via odin, I needed to find away to wipe cache's and do a factory reset. I finally accomplished this by downloading the .pit file, and re-flashing it together with the stock rom all through odin. After doing so, I was finally able to get into recovery, wipe, and do a factory reset. For anyone else having this issue, here is a link where I found the .pit file, and a thread with some basic instructions:

Please help because I messed up my tab3 8.
I was using the BinDroid ROM and today I decided to flash this ROM [JB/KK][4.3.1/4.4.2] CyanogenMod unofficial builds.
I started flashing the Philz recovery via Odin. After that I have bootloop.
I tried to flash stock firmware via Odin and still have bootloop.
Is there any way to fix this?
I am able to enter recovery or download mode.

1.Do you boot into the Philz recovery or the one you had previous to Odin the recovery? If its philz try wiping data and cache and rebooting.
2.Next check if the md5 of your download matches and you have downloaded the correct zip for your device (lt01wifi). If so factory data reset and then flash again.
3.Make sure you are using ODIN correctly. A good guide can be found here http://forums.androidcentral.com/ambassador-guides-tips-how-tos/300296-guide-samsung-how-flash-stock-rom-via-odin.html
I flashed the stock firmware again and still bootloop.
Then I did a factory reset via the recovery and that was it!!!! My tablet is fixed!!!
I pass the Philz recovery then and root the tablet.
So now I am with the stock ROM and rooted. Thank you!!!
Is your data lost after flashed ?
Image, mp3, video etc..
Hi this is a long post so I will highly appreciate it if anyone helps me even after reading this.
I was on xperia z-ized v3.4 (based on android 4.3) with mj5 as the bootloader. I was tired of that rom and wanted to try dn3 rom and downloaded the zip as well but the OP of the rom thread said that twrp recovery is recommended over cwm. So I went to thread given in the page which showed me how to flash twrp. It was just download the zip and flash it in recovery, which is exactly what I did. Now ever since then I am not able to turn on my phone, nor does it go to recovery, it just goes into download mode which made me change my decision. Now I am thinking to downgrade back to 4.1.2 and I will try dn3 rom later on. I downloaded the firmware from sammobile but just wanted to ask that given my previous firmwares and flashes, is it safe to flash or will I risk bricking my phone.
Thanks for reading this and please help me out if you can

Well if you still want to try DN3 ROM you can flash philz recovery tar.md5 via odin and then once you boot into recovery you can get twrp zip file that you downloaded previously and flash twrp over philz.That's what i do when i switch recoveries.I never used CWM except when i was on 4.1.2 but once i rooted my phone the same day i switched to philz.If you don't want to try dn3 at the moment yes you can go back 4.1.2 since you are on mj5 bootloader which makes downgrading back to 4.1.2 possible.I'm giving you links below for philz tar.md5 and instructions on how to flash it via odin incase you change your mind.
philz tar.md5
Put your phone into download mode,open odin on pc,uncheck auto reboot in odin,dont touch anything else,connect phone to pc,wait for port ID to lit up and be blue.Select the AP/PDA tab and navigate to flash this downloaded philz tar file.Click start and you are done.Exit odin on pc.Pull battery out your phone.Wait a minute then put it back in and manually enter recovery mode your newly flashed philz recovery will load.Now go and install twrp recovery zip file and select "reboot recovery" in philz advanced options.Your twrp recovery will load.Do all the wipes in twrp by going under advanced wipe (dont wipe external sd and otg) this will fully wipe your internal phone memory clean then go back to main menu and flash DN3.Enjoy.

Well try other 4.4.2 custom TW rom,dn3 isn't the only ROM available on xda for our note II.Look around and I am sure you'll find something that suits you.

Actually to be honest I want to go back to stock but I odin shows fail, so is there any workaround for that.
PS: even dn3 doesn't boot up now after flashing. Stuck on the note II logo. Tried wiping cache, dalvik cache and factory reset but to no avail

Well which recovery are you using now?TWRP?Do you have a back up of any ROM? I suggest go under advanced wipe and wipe everything except external sd card and otg.This will fully wipe your phone.Other suggestion is flashing stock 4.4.2 ROM and then trying custom ROM.

Tried whatever you said just now, still not booting up. I am on philz recovery and I did not take any backup. I only have stock 4.1.2 rom which is not getting flashed via odin and I cannot download stock 4.4.2 because my internet connection is slow..
what should I do?
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!
I am am trying to take my Samsung i317 AT&T Note 2 back to stock.
Installed 4.4.2 NJ1 stock rom using ODIN. Reset/ cleared and started phone and went to OTA upgrade the latest patch from AT&T to make it to NJ2. However, when the phone reboots, the Samsung Note II logo shows up and the screen does dark. When I try to enter recovery, it starts to reinstall the OTA patch all over again and says updated. Tried turning the phone back on and the same thing happens again.
I was able to get the phone to work by reflashing the NJ1 stock rom and installed the ZIP stock recovery file using CWM. However, I am trying to get back to the original stock configuration as possible without having CWM installed on the phone and was hoping I can install the stock recovery so that when I go to download mode, everything shows Samsung Official. Knox Warranty Void is at 1, so I guess there is nothing I can do to fix that at this point.
Would installing this be the simple fix by downloading 4.3 Param.bin and Tz.img
Another would be to install the stock recovery ZIP file using CWM as I have already successfully done and maybe someone can point me to find a way to uninstall the CWM afterwards. I've searched online to remove CWM but couldn't find the md5.tar file that would do that from ODIN.
