I tried updating to the official JM1 using Kies but when it got to the Upgrade part after downloading it failed and said 'Failed to convert to upgrade mode. Please try later'
Has anyone else encountered this? I have no idea how to upgrade now. Any help would be much appreciated.
Some more info: I'm running Windows 7 64 bit. My Galaxy is is running JF3 Stock Firmware. I have tried this with and without rooting the phone.

1-ALJ or any lower than 4.1.2 require you not to just Flash a ROM, downgrade requires a full Wipe. (VolUp+Power+Middle Button , then wipe data/cache).
2-make sure your model is N7100 , and not N7100T or SGH.
3-KIES MUST BE NOT RUNNING IN BACKGROUND OR RUNNING AT ALL! You can simply uninstall it.
4-try installing the drivers again, and use a different USB Port.
I also have same problem please help me

Dear devs..
I tried all sorts to get this working but after returning to stock after unrooting and repairing the N7100 via kies back to stock 4.1.2 india rom..
Now it does not check for update as it says the above msg mentioned in the subject. I cannot check for update OTA. It just goes on and on.. no result..
Dr. Ketan mentioned the reason behind it but still no solution. He is definitely working on it but still no results.
I can connect to kies and sync or backup but cannot update firmware.
Does anyone has the same problem and have found any solution for the same.
Pls reply. Thanks in advance.

Hey guys i am trying to use odin to downgrade from android 4.3 to Android 4.1.1 but for some reason it keeps on failing in odin. And now i am stuck in "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again". How do i know if i have the correct stock file? I downloaded 4.1.1 from here: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/1...e=TLS#firmware.. why is it keep on failing? i have checked and kies is off and i am using the original samsung cable odin recognizes the phone but it "fails"
please help
Do you have an AT&T s3? If you do, you cannot downgrade the 4.3 bootlaoder using desktop Odin and there is no stock AT&T 4.3 ROM.

Be thankful Odin failed because if it hadn't you probably would have had a bricked phone on your hands now. Like the senior member already advised, you can't downgrade the bootloader on the 4.3 to an older system. Desktop Odin tries to flash most partitions which is why it failed. If I may ask, why are you trying to downgrade to 4.1.1? If it's to free unlock the phone, you may be advised that there haven't been conclusive results on the viability of this process. It's possible to downgrade the system itself without downgrading the bootloader by flashing with other methods apart from Odin. I'm not aware, however, that anyone's been able to unlock even after this.
It's unlikely you'd be able to use Kies to recover from the phone's current situation as Kies will likely try to update to 4.1.1. If it isn't booting or working normally, you may try doing a hard wipe from recovery. If your phone still has warranty left on it, you may try an authorized service center. I am also assuming you are using an AT&T phone? You may be able to get it fixed at Best Buy
Hello all, I am new to the android community as well as the devices, which was probably a major factor in the coming of my current predicament. Anyways, i recently purchased a Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 7.0, running Android KitKat 4.4.2 . I attempted to root the device using ODIN v3.07 and CF auto root that was meant for the model SM-T320, whereas my model is SM-T230. So in the middle of the process, Odin said it failed and it stuck in download mode. When I tried to reset it, it came up to the screen in the pictures below. I have attempted using the firmware update from Kies 3, but i get an error message saying that the device cannot be updated. I have downloaded two different versions of the SM-T230's supposed firmware and have attempted to "flash" the device using these files, however to no avail. The error message is in the pictures below. Can anyone help me resolve this problem?

Hi to resolve this is really simple, please download the corrodponding firmware, your tab 4 will show an update firmware error, but is infact in odin mode... simply select the .tar/md5 file and insert it to pda and click start...
Sorry for poor gramma, i shall lon on pc now

ok so recently iv encountered the same problem, with a good easy solution, if you look carefully on the update error screen that you are facing, in the top left it says odin mode.........
the next steps are simple......
download the current SM-T230 firmware from here: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=33745
Assumming you are in uk or a europien country, ( there is currently no uk firmware updateable via kies ) so please use the nordick firmware. (its excatly the same, i have both )
Download odin 3.7 from here : http://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rc...S5QWImOPDJboTA_V3D5S9eA&bvm=bv.74115972,d.d2k
Once you have downloaded the firmware you will need to unzip the file to somewhere easy to find, i would suggest the desktop. locate and run odin 3.7 and point the PDA tab to your recently unzipped firmware file and click start.... odin will do its thing and complete the firmware update process......
HOPE THIS HELPS THE GUYS THAT ARE HAVING PROBLEMS......... LET ME KNOW HOW YOU GOT ON
