Redownload stock ROM.
Using single or multiple file ROM?
I recommend the latter.
To be downloaded with samfirm_reborn if not found elsewhere.

I have tried several stock from different sources, and it always fail at the same place. I did try the multiple files once and that failed too.
@Aloupha imo Odin 3.14 is to new for this old stock ROM.
Try 3.09 or even older ones.
Somewhere I've read recommendations regarding Odin versions to stock ROM versions.

Oh I will give that a shot and see. I will google for an old version.
I went as low as Odin 3.04... it keeps failing at the same place: Odin: Invalid ext4 image
Do you have a link for samfirm_reborn?
@Aloupha using ecosia search gave me this:
GitHub - ivanmeler/SamFirm_Reborn
Contribute to ivanmeler/SamFirm_Reborn development by creating an account on GitHub.
github.com
And don't forget to check binary or factory mode to get multiple part ROM.

Oh - I did find that link but didn't know I had the right one. I don't know how to use that site.
@Aloupha on the right hand side you see "Releases" below "About".
There is the link to the download site where you find the .zip to be used.
No need to install. Just unpack it and start as admin.
This is the direct link
Ah that makes sense. Not knowing how it work, I was looking to download the firmware directly from the website. That's why I was confused. Thanks for the tip.
Alright, I downloaded the latest firmware from there and tried. I am still getting the same error.
Is there a stock ROM I could flash via TWRP?

That will never work as stock ROM includes stock recovery and comes in a different file format.
Perhaps ADB might work but I never tried.
Which Odin right now?

I have tried Odin 3.04, 06, 07, 09, and 3.14.4, and none worked. I read somewhere that for this to work, I must have the original cable. Since I don't have the original cable, I don't know what to do.
I would give ADB a shot, but I have no clue how to do that.

Cable doesn't have to be original but of good quality.
Neither do I. I just once checked if tab is recognised and that worked.
Btw does it still work to flash custom ROM?

To start, you will need
Recovery-cmw-hercules.tar (doesn't have to be the latest, you can update it later). This can be found in other recovery threads, as the process remains the same.
Odin3 v1.85 (or any other compatible version)
root.zip found Here
Steps:
1) Make sure Kies is exited, and you have the drivers installed for Odin. If not, check the other threads as this has been covered many times
2) Just select your CWM recovery for PDA once you are in DL mode (which is achieved by holding down VOL Up and VOL Down when the phone is off as you plug in the cable). Select vol up to confirm dl mode.
3) In Odin, leave the default boxes (Auto reboot and F. Reset time), and then select PDA and choose the .tar file we found earlier. Make sure odin sees your phone properly and start this!
4) once you have CWM recovery installed copy the root.zip to your sd card, and boot into CWM recovery. Do a Nand Backup and then install root.zip and enjoy!
5) Delete that crappy bloat!
For those having connection issues in Odin, try the following.
1) Exit Kies
2) Change to a different USB port
3) Reinstall your USB drivers.
I kept getting an error, and the above fixed that.
Thank you!

Yes but make sure you download the root.zip file OP posted a link to.
Once you're done with the odin part, having the recovery-cmw-hercules .tar all done.
You should see CWM rom manager in your app, you can click on it but cant really use it. because you don't have superuser permission, That why you need to copy the root.zip file to your sd card. Now get in to CW recovery by turning off the phone.
hold vol. up+down,and hit the power on button, scroll down and install the root zip.
then reboot. now you should have superuser permission and can now uninstall, or freeze all the junk with Titanium backup.

Don't touch anything but the PDA button, select the .tar file, and click start.
For those worried about using the GB root process with the new ICS ROM, the Kies flashing does not put a new recovery on it. It's the same one that shipped with your phone. Therefor overwriting the the recovery with CWM 5.0.2.6 (via Odin) is the exact same. The root.zip flashed from VWM just installs su, busybox, and the superuser.apk into the OS, this has been done on many ICS roms already.
TL;DR: the process is identical, and confirmed working.
Rooted! T989 with Stock ICS update!
Thank you So Much! It Worked!!! For all of you who are doing this:
You will first need to install Busy Box update before Titanium will work. It takes a few seconds (20 - 30secs) then you will see "Allow Super User..."
Thanks again Starting to delete Crap ware now!

Busybox is included in the root.zip in this post?
Worked like a charm thanks!
Damn... Stuck on "Goodbye"
Ok, so I rooted and it worked perfectly, only problem is I'm now getting stuck on "Goodbye" screen when shutting down, or when restarting. I have removed the battery for 2 minutes, wiped cache, wiped dalvik...
Still the same thing...
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks

How can I select USB debugging if the phone doesn't come on for me to access the option.

My device was rooted. I want to get it to work. Doesn't matter with the roms. Any rom that makes it come on is good enough for me.
When I attempt to get it into recovery, all I get is a blank grey screen with white horizontal lines. Download menu doesn't show the device name and all other details are there.
I have tried everything that I've gathered from different threads as well. Keep on getting stuck on pit section.
I've spoken to samsung and sending it for repairs.
I've looked at other threads and from, that I've gathered its half sds and it's a hardware problem which according to the forums will be replaced as the technicians themselves cannot put roms on so they'll change the faulty parts, install a stock rom and send it back.
I could be wrong, so if there are anything else I could try, please advise. Many thanks.

In my opinion if you are not able to find anything from xda or any other site..i think you should go to samsung service center..

Update to the issue NOW lol
Hi guys, hope all is well with everyone. I sent the phone to the service centre and got it back unresolved but better than originally. I have new issues which is explained in a new thread. Please advise and help if possible. Many thanks again guys. much respect.

Hello and thank you for clicking into my topic.
i just bought a used Samsung Galaxy note II online and when i got it and put in my sim, i noticed that there was no service.
i can go WIFI and use apps and stuff but i cannot call or update firmware.
so i tried to reformat it using the system recovery boot.
and still no changes... i did some research in the phone and noticed i have no IMEI and there is absolutely no service in the phone.
tried to take of the battery to see the imei on the phone but the previous owner has taken the sticker off.
i've tried to contact the previous owner but he has deleted his account on the site i bought it from.
is there something i can do.. if i wanted a multimedia pad i would've bought a ipad
please i hope there is some kind and wise soul out there that has a solution on fixing my new phone.
thank you very much!
i have some screenshots but i apperently need to post 10 posts before i can attach them.

Based on the Odin error message it seems this is because of invalid partition sizes. I wanted to re-partition the device, but couldn't find any PIT files for the N7505XX versions. I've seen that it is called HLLTE_EUR_OPEN_4G.pit or HLLTE_EUR_OPEN_4G_hidden30M.pit but didn't find a download link for them anywhere.
Does anyone have these handy, or could someone extract the PIT from their device?
EDIT: it looks like they can now be downloaded from various places on the internet. I have uploaded them here for anyone in need. Tested both, and they don't void your KNOX warranty so the signature in them seems perfectly legit. The zip file contains both HLLTE_EUR_OPEN_4G.pit (for Hong Kong roms) and HLLTE_EUR_OPEN_4G_hidden30M.pit (for European roms). It looks like you'll need the latter one for most of the 4.4.x and the new 5.1.1 ROMs found on samfirmware

Thanks a lot, I'm gonna test it tomorrow to check if it's fine. I'll also make a copy of my own to check what differences are.

I extracted my own pit using heimdall, and compared it to yours. It seems they are exactly the same... Did you manage to update your FW to any official non-HK roms or 4.4.2?
Meanwhile I could update to 4.4.2. hidden.img was of course broken, but creating a new .tar file which only contained recovery.img was enough to remove the firmware upgrade failed flag (and it also passed the new 4.4.2 secure bootloader checks), so I could boot into the new OS and I didn't see any visible errors after the update.
Having a proper install without failures would be better though...

Hello.
I´m a bit newby in this area, but so brave to soft brick my N7505 Phablet
I´ve downloaded your Pit file --> "Can´t write it here" , and via Odin 3.09 I´ve installed a samfirmware Spanish ROM: N7505XXUANB4_N7505PHEANB2_N7505XXUANB4_HOME.tar.md5
My inexperience have make me think that I´could use this ROM with your Pit file and select the Flags: Auto Reboot, Re-Partition, F Reset Time. But at the end of the procedure the Screen have begin flashing with color points :silly:
After 5 mitutes Ihave reset the mobile but it goes right to Download Mode.
There is down the Odim conf window.
Any idea to solve this problem? Now I´m really Frighten, and almost I did not do a backup before.
Thanks in advance.
ED: I´ve try using a newest PHE ROM, but after 1 second , the system don´t go ahead (Here is the Odin message) not Re-partitiion:

i'm from india is that file support for my Samsung Note 3 Neo I want to flash Official Firmware !
Just re-partitioned my phone with HLLTE_EUR_OPEN_4G_hidden30M.pit, and so far it works perfectly. I could finally install the latest roms error free from Odin. KNOX warranty status is still okay, so no issues with the signature of the file. File links in first post if anyone needs it.
Note, that the HLLTE_EUR_OPEN_4G_hidden30M.pit file works just fine for the new 5.1.1 Lollipop ROMs as well
Can someome explain what is this Pit file do?

Hello. When I update sm-n7505 with odin, I encountered the following error. And to solve it I realized that I do have to file Pitt Operation re-partition. Pitt files that I've put in the link below. However, since I want to update Android 5.1.1 Do you think I use this file or files (HLLTE_EUR_OPEN_4G_hidden30M.pit)

Got Black Note 7 from Verizon yesterday.
As we all know, V's firmware messed up with the original system quite a lot. So after a bit search, I decided to flash it to T-Mobile Firmware.
With Odin3, easily done. However, LTE not working, not cellular either, emergency call only. Then decided to flash to AT&T according to one of the threads(maybe link later).
After flashing to AT&T firmware, still no LTE, emergency call only.
When I tried to flash it back to Verizon, Odin3 stopped me from doing so and gives SHA256 error.

The verison I tried to flash back is AP_N930VVRS1APH1_CL8720001_QB10528330_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CER
Also, I'm still in the 14 days return period. Anyone has an idea if they'll allow me to return the device after I flashed the AT&T firmware on it?
(went to a Verizon store asking for help but they told me "we don't flash things")

Had this issue on the s7 edge when I was on the "u" firmware. Very similar except everything except texting worked. Had to use the princecomsey Odin(sha256 patched) to get back to at&t which I use for a daily driver

I also flashed firmware on s7 edge but they worked all fine even from u to v. Odin sometimes feels tricky to work around.
We're your APN setting adjusted after you flashed from Verizon to the other roms?
