Samsung Galaxy Note 3

So I tried to update my firmware using Odin. Bad idea.
Firstly I tried updating with a newer UK firmware... got an error message saying "invalid ext 4 image"... phone wouldn't boot.
Then I downloaded the latest S. A. firmware...tried to flash it and got this error..."sw rev check fail : (aboot) fused 2 > binary 1"
I even downloaded the exact firmware that was on the phone before I started messing with it... same story.
Tried everything including Kies firmware recovery (fails everytime).... Anyone have any ideas as to how I can bring my Note 3 back to life?
 
The only thing holding me back from the watch is the fact that I have had my eye on this awesome diesel watch and it's almost R2000 cheaper. Granted all it does is tell the time. Haha :D
 
Guess who is getting his Note3 Tomorrow! Yeah

I got to peak at Cell C's November specials - the Note3 + Gear is going for R529 on their Straight Up 100 contract.

I will however only be going for the phone - don't feel like spending an extra R100 pm on the gimmick watch. R2400 over the two year contract seems like a bargain though.

Can I pay you the R100 pm for the Watch? :D
 
Installed the first Software update [30MB]. Galaxy Note 3 gets first OTA update for improved stability.
 
as far as i know, there's been 3 different x ota 's for Note 3 .
2 x ota of about 28 / 30 megabytes and last one was about 116mb plus ?
( about a day or two ago )and we are still waiting for first ota..!!

I only got 1 update so far. Going to connect it to KIES just now to see if the other updates are showing.
 
Hey guys
So I might be doing a trade and getting a note 3 soon

Is there anyway for me to check if its stolen or warranty still valid? Its supposedly a sealed unit...
havent bought an expensive phone for along time and just dont want to be ripped off
so any tips will be appreciated
 
This phones **** wifi is really starting to work on. My nerves!!!!!!!!!!!! :mad:

I'm one wifi drop from smashing this thing.
 
I have noticed that the phone gets very hot when using it to play a game, watch video or doing anything that needs a bit of processing power.
Strangely it gets hot around the camera, and not lower down around the battery.
Anyone noticed this, or is this unique to my N900?

Just finished 5 rounds of toy defense 2. No noticeable heat. Slight bit of warmth by the camera. N9005.
