There is nothing to worry about that message.. If Odin said auth failed you probably flashed an older firmware, check to make sure you are flashing NH7 and give it another try.. You can also just flash a ROM

According to the screenshots you uploaded, you are not on MDL firmware. In fact, you are on MDB firmware. MDB was released when the T-Mobile Galaxy S4 came out. Use Odin and flash the MDL firmware (use that same restore thread again, but do NOT download the link that says Stock Tar, instead download UVUAMDL Official TAR). Flashing this should restore the baseband version from MK2 to MDL.

I'm not sure. I actually used that tutorial to upgrade my baseband and it worked just fine. Another person also had this issue as well. I told them that it could have something to do with the custom binary counter. Apparently, the phone prevents you from flashing unsigned items if the counter is high. You can reset it with an app called TriangleAway.

URGENT - Please Help

So I just Odin Stock 4.3 and then I applied the update.zip to get it to 4.4.2. After that I tried flashing a ROM and eventually I just stupidly wiped my phone and I have no firmware on it. I went to Odin to get it back to stock 4.3 but due to Knox, I was not able to and now I'm stuck on the "Connect to kies" message. What do I do? I'm at loss here ;(. Please help. And the phone is not showing up on Odin...do I wait for Samsung to release a 4.4.2 tar?

Do you have custom recovery installed?
If so just put any ROM on your SD Card, and flash that in recovery. The phone will boot right up and will be working again. From there you can do whatever you want.

[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

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.

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.

cant mount '/system', data or cache. also internal storage is gone

First off, if I did this wrong(posting in this) then I'm sorry but I need some serious help.
lets begin, I flashed a rom (5.1.1) and then I used Odin to restore to (4.1.1) it worked but then I flashed a newer rom (7.0.1) and it wasn't working so I tried to flash again but in twrp custom recovery, I wiped everything off my phone accidentally, including system. My phone then wouldn't turn on, it was bricked. so after hours I created a debrick sd card and used a usb jig to get into download mode, then when I flash a recovery with Odin, before the phone completely boots, I hold volume up and menu to get access to recovery mode.
Now I cant flash, wipe or even replace twrp recovery with stock recovery on Odin. Even tho Odin says it "passed". When the phone boots up in recovery, its still twrp. When I try to flash anything I get error that unable to mout '/system', '/data' and '/cache'. Internal storage is shown to be 0mb.
when I run the android toolkit, in the information for the phone it shows that my android version is 5.1.1 but my bootloader is I747UCUFNJ2 which is android 4.4.2 and build description is I747UCUFNE4 which is 4.3
I can provide information to anyone with knowledge of how to help. Thank you in advance if anyone can assist.
Was the phone running a 4.3 or 4.4.2 bootloader when you used Odin to flash a stock 4.1.1 ROM?
not sure

I think it was 4.3
The bootloader in the s3 cannot be downgraded to 4.1.1 if it was running 4.3 or 4.4.2. If the 4.1.1 rom you flashed using Odin included a 4.1.1 bootloader, this could be the cause of the problem as an invalid bootloder/modem combination will brick the phone.
Where are you getting the stock recovery? Are you flashing just recovery?

Yeah I knew that part after, I was able to create a debrick sd card with a 16 gb memory card and used to a usn jig to get it into download mode. I got the stock recovery from one of the posts here I think, yes I just flash the recovery with the sd card still in the phone.
but it doesn't replace the twrp that was installed prior to the brick, when I get it into recovery mode, there is no internal storage, cant mount or change file or anything.
Maybe a pit file is required? I'm guessing here as I don't experience with de-bricking.

i have all the files I suppose to have. even the pit file but when I odin the pit file, I get an error. I cant even flash the stock recovery. when I am in twrp, I cant mount anything, system shows 0 mb.
I'm curious as to which 5.1.1 rom you flashed.

The phone may to be force flashed with something like an octopus box.
