most credit for this should go to Jairsantana for file provided in this thread: (ROM)(ODIN)OC5 stcock firmware tar. i just stripped modem and bootloader and repacked in to separate files.
The link to files is here:
http://www.mediafire.com/download/6qeh035h9xh60ng/modem_and_bootloader_-_OC5.zip
Download OC5 modem and bootloader zip file from the link and extract.
Flash OC5 modem: reboot in to Download mode, select modem-OC5.tar.md5, flash
Reboot in to Download mode for the 2nd time and upgrade bootloader using bootloader-OC5.tar.md5 file (in Odin click the bootloader box flash bootloader).
reboot, verify that your baseband is now OC5
I had to downgrade to NH7 from NK4 before i was able to go to OC5 but you might not have to. In case you do here is what I did:

Apparently you can't rename an md5 file , it will cause the md5 check-sum mismatch. I've rebuilt and re-uploaded:

ok thanks, will try later tonight after work and report back.
Can anytime confirm this will work without having to downgrade first?
Thanks for this man! I was having troubles seeing my wifi and I was able to reflash the modem and baseband without doing stock over again. You saved me allot of backup time
I completed the steps as described and the phone is now stuck on the "Samsung Galaxy Note 3" screen. The 1st flash went fine and it rebooted normally. After flashing the bootloader, it never became operational...any ideas?

Did you ever get your issue fixed?
Possible solution..
In the directions, you are instructed to install each file separately if I am reading it correctly. However, when I do that neither the modem or baseband would change. I was stuck on NH7. So I simply installed both at the same time. Power up into download mode, connect to Odin, and place the modem file in the PDA slot and the baseband file in the baseband slot. Start and then allow the phone to reboot into your rom, and you should be on OC5 now. By the way, a lot of the connection issues, and loss of data was corrected by upgrading to OC5. Hope this helps.

Thank you for the responses, I did eventually get it fixed. I was flashing using Odin 3.07, it was suggested to me to use 3.10, after looking it up and using the version recommended for LP OC5 finally took and my data returned. Thank you everyone for your help
Thank you for these files. I'm on a CM based ROM and Odin isn't connecting. Would I have to be on a TW ROM or is there something else that is not allowing my note 3 to connect? I'm on a Mac using Jodin

Scroll down in the guide it's explained there how to use Odin properly.
From the FAQ section from the porting team: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1739763
If this bricks your phone, and you cant boot or get kernel panic. AT YOUR OWN RISK try re partitioning and flashing a stock sammy rom in ODIN. This is what i did and it worked
You need to download this http://hotfile.com/dl/146321681/7a02...1_OXA.zip.html in odin
CODE_I9100 goes in PDA GT-I9100-CSC-Multi goes in CSC and MODEM_I9100 goes in Phone the .pit file goes in PIT in ODIN then hit start
To easily root and return to CM9(if you want) flash this http://codeworkx.de/download/cyanoge...laxys2.tar.md5 in ODIN. That will flash CM9 and CWMR

Mine did this exact same thing. I later found out that you have to run Odin again and only use a pit file. Basically bring up Odin, put your phone into Odin mode, connect it, on the right hand side of the Odin screen instead of clicking PDA, click PIT. Then point to your file and click start. The file name is sch-I605-16gb.pit. Only thing is that I am unsure where I downloaded it from. There is a video on youtube on that describes exactly how to do this and I think the links to the files are on that video.

Did you take 4.4.2 OTA?
Well have you tried rebooting into stock recovery(UP BUTTON, HOME BUTTON, POWER) and doing a factory reset..then reboot?
You should always flash a image or tar in Odin WITH the pit file..bc if no pit the image could end up anywhere(rare)..
So this is what I would do..
pull battery
un plug phone
reboot into Download Mode
plug phone into different USB port
ODIN see it?
If so good!
Try to reflash WITH pit file
Hi there,
I may have softbricked my i9300 S3 after failing to flash MIUI. I had the phone rooted already with custom recovery installed.
CWM 6.0.1.2. A friend recommended the recovery after he successfully installed it on his S3. I was running Android 4.1.2
so no Knox problems hopefully. I downloaded the latest MIUI rom for my phone directly from the official website and used the CWM
to try and flash it. My phone was already rooted at that stage and I had wiped cache and reset the phone prior to the flash attempt.
Unfortunately it gave me a Status 7 error. Even after I unrooted and rerooted my phone the error still remained. I read somewhere else
that this happens sometimes and so I edited the Updater-Script as suggested elsewhere and deleted the section pertaining to the
Verification process. I double checked I had the right ROM too and proceeded to wipe and flash again. It seemed to take and the phone
restarted and I was met with the MIUI language selection menu. However, when i tried to select English, the whole thing just froze and switched
off and restarted itself. But this time the screen went all weird and fuzzy and wouldnt boot back to MIUI interface. I tried to boot into recovery but with no luck. I have tried to reflash the recovery also with no luck. I have tried other versions of CWM alos without luck. Tried TWRP and also no luck. I have used both the 3.07 and the 1.85 version of ODIN with no luck. The flash would fail with either a PIT error or a COM port error. But I have all the necessary drivers installed. I have Kies but dont run it at the same time. The Emergency Firmware something also doesnt seem to work.
I have pictures of the various errors and such and can provide dropbox links if required
Any suggestions would be helpful.
Thanks!
Original Firmware
If I were you, I would go to Download Mode and Flash the Original Firmware from Samsung. Download it from the Sammobile Website and after you successfully installed it try it again.
Like Tkkg1994 said above download the Samsung firmware and use Odin to install it through download mode.
You were having a "Status 7" error when initially flashing miui because your CWM recovery was not the latest...download the latest cwm recovery (6.48.something not sure??) Then flash miui and hopefully you shouldn't have any problems.

Yes that's correct. Because of this I would do all things to get a normal S3 without root. That in download mode it shows Original and 0 flashs. Than I would download Philz latest Touch Recovery, clean to install a new rom, download the ROM again, maybe there is a fault, than install it again and root it later, not than.
Hope I could help
Thanks guys! I think that was the general consensus then. I'm trying to follow this guide here
http://unbrick.itcse.com/unbrick-soft-bricked-samsung-galaxy-s3-i9300/
But when I download the Original 4.1.2 ROMS they dont have all the mentioned csc files nor do they have any PIT files in them either.
The only file included in the ZIP was a MD5 file which i guess is the PDA file.
Regardless, I'll give it a go. I've found some newer CWM recoveries but they seem to be IMG files instead of ZIP or MD5.
Any idea how to convert it. I'm getting the file directly from the CWM ROM MANAGER website.
Thanks for all the help again!
Firmware
If you like to download the latest Firmware form Samsung, than I have a link for you:

Thanks man but I live in Taiwan so selected Taiwan.
I downloaded this one

and also another one but both did not have the PIT file.
When I try to use ODIN 3.09 it says fail due to THERE IS NO PIT PARTITION.
There is only one file thats supposed to be for PDA i guess.
I have tried older ODIN 1.85 too. NO PIT PARTITION ERROR

Extract the file inside the ZIP File. Than go to odin and on Odin3.09 select AP! Not PIT. This works!
Yes Sir Thanks but I was doing that before. When I unzip there is 2 files.
One is MD5 file and the other one is SS_DL.dll file
I loaded it in AP slot in ODIN 3.09 and ODIN 1.85
Still gives PIT Partition Error!
Is there any PIT file that I can use that wont brick my phone??
I really dont want to brick this phone!

You don't brike your phone this way. I never select the SS_DL.dll file. You just need the MD5 file and do this in AP. I do some research on that but it should work

If someone can link me a working .tar file with PIT as well I would greatly appreciate it!

UPDATE
Turns out that my S3 had a faulty eMMC chip and had to have the chip and the motherboard replaced.
NOTE TO OWNERS OF 2012 MODEL I9300 GALAXY S3:
I did not know this before I had the problem but there is apparently an APP on the PLAY STORE called eMMC Brickbug App.
That will apparently check your eMMC status. Since I was not aware of this app beforehand I cannot say for sure if this app
does or does not work. However I previously owned and since gave away a 2013 late model Galaxy S3 which had no issues
whatsoever. From all the details that I have read, it seems that most 2012 models of the i9300 are more susceptible to this kind
of problem. If you own a 2012 model please take extra care when flashing any type of software, even if its original from Samsung!
Finally thanks to all the Posters who have attempted to help me out. I'm sure that all of your suggestions would have fixed the issue had my
phone not been hard bricked in the first place.
What we have hare is a TWRP flashable of Lollipop that is pre-rooted, and will only overwrite the "System," "Boot," and "Modem" partitions. I performed a factory reset before performing the backup anyways. It will not overwrite the EFS, data, or cache partitions, so previously installed apps might stay, but no promises, so be prepared to lose all your apps. If your phone doesn't act right, perform a factory restore and wipe your Cache/Dalvik. It is recommended to do a full backup before flashing this image.
To install, install TWRP (if not already), and un7zip (7-zip on PC or ES File Explorer on Android) the folder from the TWRP file link into:
"/TWRP/backups/<device serial number>/" (The serial numbered folder will be present if a backup of something has been made from TWRP.)
Then boot into TWRP and 'Restore' "Sprint Note 3 Lollipop Prerooted."
You can Odin the TWRP file from here:
http://dl.twrp.me/hltespr/twrp-2.8.6.1-hltespr-4.4.img.tar
And here is the TWRP file:
Sprint Note 3 Lollipop prerooted.7z
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B2iEgzRTFjrQWVVzSkdUMlVMUkk&authuser=0
I forgot to do this before making the image, but this app fixes SD write permissions no problem:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...sdfix&pcampaignid=APPU_1_yNg1VcDzJLTasAS274Fo
I don't know how much bandwidth Google will allow before flipping people the bird. If this happens, let me know and I'll get another method of sharing worked out.
This looks like it will get me to the latest firmware/modem easily, but don't want to be the Guinea Pig. Anyone else have success with this?

As far as my knowledge goes , you cant flash a modem via recovery , no matter what
It has to be done via odin .
so its better to restore the image and then straight away boot in download mode and flash the modem via odin ( if there is available an ODIN image for the OC5 modem ) and then do a reboot
But the rom will work fine with NK4 provided the firmware version is the same that is NK4 as any lower bootloader wont let it boot after the first Reboot.

Actually that is not true. You can flash the modem.bin in recovery. You need the devblock/partition and then add the script to the updater in the zip. You'll need the correct binary as well in order to flash it but you have that already.
I was just looking for some stock note 3 lollipop framework & apk's for some work i'm doing and come upon this thread. I thought i'd give my input on the modem flashable thing while i was here.

Can you please elaborate on this? I was looking for TWRP flashable modem for note 3 and did not find one neither for Sprint nor for any other carrier.
I tried to create an ODIN flashable modem. It looks like modem.emmc.win has the same format as modem.bin (at least the same header and similar size) so i just renamed modem.emmc.win to modem.bin then used:
c:\cygwin420\bin\tar -H ustar -c modem.bin > modem.tar
c:\cygwin420\bin\md5sum -t modem.tar >> modem.tar
copy modem.tar modem.tar.md5
info came from this guide: [TUTORIAL] How to repackage ODIN files and then tried to flash resulting file via ODIN , but that failes with : "secure check fail modem"

I don't know the devblock for the modem on the Note 3 but once you get that you can add a line to your updater-script inside the zip and it will flash the modem in recovery.
The line will be similar to this...
package_extract_file("modem.bin", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/modem"); Do some searching and maybe somebody has already pulled the devblocks for dev/chef's to use as references. You can make an odin flashable mode but that's a totally different beast. The point of my post was that you CAN do it in recovery easily.
Edit: Here is the mount point for the Sprint note 3 modem...
/dev/block/mmcblk0p2
also you can do it this way... /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/modem like i suggested above. If you know how to create flashable zips then all you need to do is put it together and bam... you have a recovery flashable modem. No need to go through all the trouble with creating an odin flashable... that's a lot more unecessary work.

Can you please elaborate on this? I was looking for TWRP flashable modem for note 3 and did not find one neither for Sprint nor for any other carrier.
I tried to create an ODIN flashable modem. It looks like modem.emmc.win has the same format as modem.bin (at least the same header and similar size) so i just renamed modem.emmc.win to modem.bin then used:
c:\cygwin420\bin\tar -H ustar -c modem.bin > modem.tar
c:\cygwin420\bin\md5sum -t modem.tar >> modem.tar
copy modem.tar modem.tar.md5
info came from this guide: [TUTORIAL] How to repackage ODIN files and then tried to flash resulting file via ODIN , but that failes with : "secure check fail modem"

it's a recovery backup not a recovery flashable file. It has already been posted and as before it cannot be flashed

Unzip put in twrp folder and RESTORE!
I've restored the lollipop backup for the note 3 and a note 4 backup on my note 3 and it ALL worked.

Your right, tried to duplicate, no go.

Something is really wired:
Someone has posted a complete stock odin tar file here (ROM)(ODIN)OC5 stcock firmware tar
most (but not all) people report that after flashing baseband gets updated to OC5. I took the tar and repackaged first to only include modem.bin & NON-HLOS.bin like the rest of the odin modem tars. Now it successfully FLASHes with odin but after reboot it still says NK4 in baseband.
I went even further and created a tar that has everything besides system, cache and recovery - again it flashes successfully but but after reboot it still says NK4 in baseband. It almost loks like the update is done but the version number is not updated somewhere.
i can post links to files if anyone wants to try as well
Ok, I was finally able to update basdeband to OC5. to do so I had to go back to NH7 modem first. For some reason it would not upgrate modem from NK4 to OC5 doesn't matter what i did, but went from NH7 to OC5 in the first try. so here is what i did:
1) Downgrade modem to NK4 using this:
http://www.mediafire.com/download/jk7qevy1swwfw2e/N900PVPUDNK4+MODEM+BOOTLOADER.zip
The link and instructions are provided by this thread: [ROM] kk 4.4.4 [N900PVPUDNK4] NO KNOX [DEODEX]
Download zip above ( NK4 modem and bootloader )
Extract the zip files
Boot into download mode
Use odin 3.07 from zip click PDA box flash modem first (you should be able to use any other version of Odin as well)
I did not FLASH the bootloader. The NK4 odin tar file contains 2 files : modem.bin and NON-HLOS.bin So I prepared the OC5 modem tar with the same files from OC5 stock tar.
Reboot and make sure your baseband now ends with NK4. After a minute or so the popup came up saying system is being updating. Wait until it's done and reboot to download mode again.
2) Download OC5 modem and bootloader zip file from the link below and extract:
https://www.mediafire.com/?6qeh035h9xh60ng
Now you can flash OC5 modem,. reboot in to Download mode again and follow the same steps as above, but select modem-OC5.tar.md5, flash, reboot in to Download mode for the 3rd time and upgrade bootloader using bootloader-OC5.tar.md5 file (in Odin click the bootloader box flash bootloader).
reboot, verify that your baseband is now OC5
reply please
is this a rom that I can flash?
Only if you have a custom recovery. If you don't, or don't know what that is, then you need the "Odin" ROM
just thought id put this up since i haven't seen it posted.
this is the full OD3 stock Rom tar.MD5 file
it is odin Flashable.
I will warn you alot of people are saying once they upgraded to this bootloader they couldnt get OA6 roms to flash so beware.
any download mirrors would be appreciated
Here is another link but this one you have to unzip then use Odin to flash the tar file inside thanks
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=61215093
download
use odin 3.10.6 but i believe 3.10.0 will work also
put the file in the AP slot and flash
you will most likely lose root but here it is any way
https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=cd08ce789eb6b040!141
It should be noted that if anyone flashes this firmware they will NOT be able to flash back to a previous firmware.
i will also note that some people could gain root with chainfire and flash custom recovery through odin then restore backups of OA6 but again beware

Wasn't sure about chainfire's root method on this version since I'm not running it, so hopefully it still works. @Ramer has uploaded this as well to a file hosting site so if he doesn't see this, ask him for a link for his download link so you can add a mirror site to the OP as an alternate if you like.

Here the file I put up on AFH: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23991606952615017
I have to question the title of this thread though. This is NOT flashable in recovery. It's the zip file that must be unzipped on a PC and then Odin the tar file. It's the original one from Sammobile.
The OP gives correct instructions, I just think the word flashable is bound to confuse someone.

thanks for the mirror it says right in the OP "Odin" flashable
also in the instructions it says to open odin use the ap slot etc
plus if anyone tried to recovery flash it would just fail, no damage done
thanks

You are correct. It's probably just my hesitation to using the word flashable and odin at the same time. I've lost count of how many users see a zip and think "I'll flash this"
Tried this and I still show BOA6 software and baseband ? Also after I installed it on odin I didnt like it much so I was able to flash MOAR after I flashed OD3. weird
Can we please get screenshoots??

Looks exactly like BOA6. They just added some extra security features like activation lock to the security settings.

Pull your battery out. wait a few seconds. put battery back and boot into odin/download mode. vol down+home+power
then odin the tar
it will work
Had the same problem, wasn't able to flash back to BOA6 using odin had to flash OD3 to get the phone back and running
not sure about rooting, but my hotspot is still enabled from previous root that i loss when updating to OD3
You can still flash OA6 roms as.long.as.you have a custom recovery and.root

Yes. Once flashed don't reboot. Pull the battery and go back into download mode and flash twrp. Img in the ap slot
You can find the file at Moars op under recovery and odin
After you flash the custom recovery image pull battery boot into recovery from recovery hit reboot. It will then prompt you that there's no root and would you like to root. Choose yes. Tada

I did as instructed, but the TWRP that i loaded did not ask for a root option, it did some updates, then it automatically reboots the phone, I pull the battery, then reboot it back into recovery again, and reboot it back into recovery from the recovery screen, it ask me to install super user, i say yes, then reboot back into system now it has a icon that says Superuser installer, I click on it and choose TWRP, gives me error
