Download the appropriate zip for your carrier from this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1739426 and then flash with odin. Keep in mind the person that hosted these hosted them on a website with incredibly slow download times. It often cuts out on you too, so make sure at the end of the download the file size is right. You may have gotten a bad download earlier.
If I have helped, slap that thanks button

I would recommend installing kies from samsung and trying to flash the firmware with them. That should fix it no matter what and make sure that you do have the right drivers installed. Also make sure you have the right version of odin running. Here is download link for kies on PC (I assume you have PC) http://downloadcenter.samsung.com/content/SW/201306/20130612104232657/KiesSetup.exe just install, plug your phone in and hopefully it recognizes it. Even if it doesn't, it might install some drivers that make odin work. Let me know if it fixes it

[Q] Need help urgently

Hey folks,
I have a note 2 gt-n7100 running ditto note 3 rom. I decided to go back to official rom so I plugged into kies and tried to do the firmware change via the tools and entering my serial number etc. The update failed for whatever reason and it said to try emergency recovery. I tried that and still failed. The worst thing now is that my phone does not boot up or go into recovery. Only works in odin mode. I had a rom which I tried to flash via odin but even odin keeps failing. I need help badly.
Thanks
Paul

samsung drivers different from those supplied by kies....install them first
then take the phone, enter download mode, select pda and flash a different official firmware from that one you tried earlier and did not work, maybe even a 4.3 one

[Q] Trying to install firmware, but Odin failed and now phone won't boot

I was trying to install the latest firmware on my son's M919 via Odin 3.09. I downloaded M919UVUFNB4_M919TMBFNB4_TMB from SAMMOBILE and went to Odin to install. The installation failed. The error said Fail (auth). Now when the phone boots, it goes to a screen that says "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again." I downloaded both versions of Kies, but neither one can see the phone in Firmware emergency recovery. I can still get into Download mode, but have been unable to successfully flash any stock firmware. I notice on the screen that the phone says SYSTEM STATUS: Official and WRITE PROTECTION: Enable. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

It is possible that the file you downloaded from sammobile did not finish correctly and is corrupt. Try redownloading it and try it again. I dont think it will make any difference but I usually will use odin 3.07.

I have downloaded files a couple of times. Even downloaded the file from the post in the General section of this forum. Used 3.09 and 3.07, all with the same results. I am using Windows 8 if that makes a difference. May try it on Windows 7 when I get a chance.

I used to have that a problem with my desktop that has windows 8. Recently I have been using my windows 7 laptop. There are different drivers needed when you are in download mode, plug it in when the phone is in download mode and let it search and find the drivers. You might even want to reinstall the samsung mobile drivers. I would also recommend to use the usb cable that came with the device. Best of luck.

It finds the drivers. I have done this on my Note 8.0 without issue. Not sure why this phone is giving me such grief.

The phone does show up in Odin in the com box correct? Even so I would still just do it on a Windows 7 computer.

Uninstall kies and try again. You can also try different USB ports

Had you previously been using the modem/baseband from a firmware that you weren't officially on? i.e. NB4 modem/baseband on either MDL or MK2 bootloader? If so, revert just the modem to your bootloader version and then attempt the Odin flash again.

Honestly, I am not sure which version he was on. I had assumed the latest or at least 4.3. How would I install just the modem?

Yes, Odin sees that there is a device on the COM port.

Success. Windows 7, 4.4.2, and Odin 1.85. Flashed without issue. Thanks everyone.

NOTE II SERIES OF ISSUES - stuck on bootloader/unrooted/stock firmware - odin fails

hi,
my galaxy note 2, running on original firmware is stuck on bootloader. When I tried to put in recovery it shows :- Failed to mount system no such directory issue. I tried to use ODIN to root it but usb debugging was never activated. I'm stuck. What to do? Please help.

You do not need USB debugging to root via Odin.
I suggest starting over by first flashing a stock rom from sammobile.com using Odin.

Are you talking about recovery or 'download mode'. You need to be in download mode not recovery to use Odin from Windows.
Make sure you have the right version of Odin.
Just make sure you have the samsung phone drivers installed AND if you can avoid it don't install KEIS if you're going to use ODIN.
This causes problems.
It should come up in device manager.
Run Odin as administrator.
It shouldn't matter if USB debugging is activated or not.
If you're going to flash fresh firmware.
Just make sure if you're upgrading to stock (TW) Android 4.3 or above you don't downgrade back to 4.2.2
Make sure you read instructions on how to flash with ODIN.
Choose the firmware file in the wrong tab and you have a bricked device.
After flashing new firmware (if that's what needs doing) then flash custom recovery. Don't forget to wipe the right areas.
Wow I haven't done this for like 2 years it seems and I'm operating off memory.
Theres some nuggets of advice.
Good Luck

What Odin errors are you getting? You're using the original Samsung USB cable? Tried different USB ports?

hey, this error!

Since it is stopping after the sboot file, it could be that the rom has an older bootloader than the bootloader on the phone or the rom is not made for the phone.
You're using the original Samsung USB cable to flash?
