Be sure to follow instructions. Take your SD card out, flash stock and do update before you put the card back in. Otherwise the phone will still think your phone is modified and you won't get Samsung updates.

I followed instructions. I downloaded garwynn's mi3 stock restore tar. I followed the instructions and loaded the tar file via ODIN (took out SD card). Before booting I then went into stock recovery and reset factory data. Once that is complete. The phone went through upgrading apps, then rebooted and now seems to be in a boot loop. Any thoughts or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Did you put the SD back in? My Note 3 bootloops if i remove the SD and put it back in. If so try removing the SD then seeing if phone boots. If SD is not a issue redoing flash is your only choice.

The SD card is out. If I put it back in I get the same result. Would the version of ODIN that I am using matter? Is there another way to flash the tar file? I have a feeling that there is something with the way it is partitioned? I know when I took mine home from the store it was flashed with MI5.

Thanks again for your thoughts and help.

Potential error with restore of TWRP backup?

Rethinking what got me to this situation... I believe my error was trying to restore my TWRP backup, seems like there are others that may have the same issue. Is some way to fix this? Or should I take the phone back to the store...

Link to the other thread where members may have the same issue...
