Ive bricked my note 3. (16gb)
Perhaps due to using odin 3.1 when i should have used 3.07
I get firmware upgrade encountered an issue
please select recovery mode in kies and try again
Kies seems to need a backup of the firmware before it starts, so thats a dead end??
I had root on the phone
I get this message in odin
<ID:0/053> Firmware update start..
<ID:0/053> boot.img
<ID:0/053> NAND Write Start!!
<ID:0/053> recovery.img
<ID:0/053> system.img.ext4
<ID:0/053> FAIL! (Ext4)
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
On the phone it gives
usd start
volume the size is too big 4620288 < 4718592
odin : invalid ext4 image
pit fail total sectors (30777344)
If I use a pit file too, and that didnt help.
Im out of my depth.
Im trying to go to 5.0 from 4.4.2 but anything is better than a dead phone
Help appreciated

Hi Peter,
You might have more luck posting on xda-developers or something, but in case it helps I had a similar looking error on my Nexus 4 a few months back when I tried to flash Cyanogenmod 12 (based on Android 5) without updating my Recovery first.
The newer Recoveries seem to allow different partition sizes depending on Android version, so the Recovery that worked with Android 4 caused size related errors on Android 5. The /system partition just keeps growing with each new Android version!
I don't know what recoveries are popular on Samsungs, but maybe flashing the latest CWM or TWRP and trying again might help.
Hope it works out,
Angus
