Hey Everyone,
I have a Note 2 for AT&T and yesterday it didnt work at all. It showed the Samsung logo while booting and it went away. It only does that when the battery is pulled. After a few hours I took it to the AT&T store and they ordered me a replacement but now the phone can be put into download mode and "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue..." but wont boot past that. I tried using Samsung Kies and nothing. When the replacement comes I will reject it because if I send my old one in they will void the warranty.
While using Odin I get the "Complete(Write) Operation Fails". This morning I downloaded a new firmware (hoping to be the right one) and will follow up.
Anybody have suggestions? :crying:
You say you tried kies ?
Did you try the updater?
Reason I am asking is because you should be using the EFR not the updater when using kies when your phone is bricked or w/e.
Updater wont fix anything.

You will need to flash rom from the link below cuz they are rooted already. Use triangle away to reset counters then unroot using superuser, go to recovery mode and do factory reset in stock recovery. Same steps above I used to put my phone back to official and removed custom / modified status.

Wow youre the man, thanks for making that thread! I will try these methods when I get home!
:good:
Wow!
What worked for me: I searched for the AT&T stock ROM 4.1.1, the file name started with "KIES" something. I must have been running the wrong ROM the whole time. I checked and the counter is up to 8 but the current binary is samsung official and system status is official.
Now how do I get the counter to say "No"

I'm just going to root it again using Odin and run triangle app to remove the counter but just keep it rooted and run performance apps. I honestly don't want to mess with the ROMs anymore.. ROMs are no joke and I've learned my lesson.
I wasn't able to rot my SGH-T999
Got this screen:
Odin Mode
Product Name: SGH-T999
Custom Binary Download: Yes (2 counts)
Current Binary: Custom
System Status: Official
Qualcomm Secureboot: Enable
I need to reset the phone again, how do I do this?
Is there a firmware that I need to download?
P.S it's on 4.1.2 Android.
Thanks
If you want root, are in download mode, and are ready to flash something with Odin, use the root66 firmware. Easy and safe.
Links to the firmware, and the root66 thread are in the firmware thread in my sig.

There are tutorials on unrooting. If you never plan on rooting again it may get be a good idea to use triangle away to reset your flash counter in case you ever have to use a warranty exchange.

I am just trying to Root my SGH-T999 with Odin 3.07.
I checked the MD% on the Flash it's good.
I have a good cable, Can connect and down load data to and from my phone via Samsung drivers.
aboot.mbm showed up after about 5 minutes then nand write start
now boot.img there is no indication of anything on the phone or the computer?
I tried it with Odin3.185 and it failed almost immediately.
why is it taking so long?
It has been on Boot.img for about 30 minutes now with no indication...
Thanks in advance...

Did you put your phone in Dowload Mode ? If it is, then you will see the same message OP described.
And use Odin 3.07. 1.85 is old.

I pulled the cable and reset all.
I then did the same process with my phone in error mode now (the error that says to hook to kies , this is download mode but not the traditional mode).
With it in this mode it worked.
I don't know. This is two different devices that have not worked until the kies error has appeared.
Maybe my cable is starting to fail. I will get a new Samsung rated USB cable. I am sure they wear out eventually.
I got it and thanks for your input!
Glad you figure it out! And yeah, usb cables go bad all the time and are much more fragile than people want to think!

if you can get in to download mode you have nothing to worry about. as long as it's not a hardware problem that really wasn't caused by flashing.

This just happened to me. I had to put it in download mode and do a restore through samsung kies.
I just did the same thing...I wiped everything then the zip file was corrupt and instead of restoring I rebooted the phone, now the phone boots straight to download mode and odin wont do anything as it's waiting on usb debugging to be enabled....
ugh!

IMPORTANT: You Need To Install goo,gl/ETEQs If Your Computer Says The Installation Failed Use a Different Computer Because That Will Not Work!
I had this problem just yesterday and had to figure it out by myself. This will solve your problem.
Hi all! I'm new here so please refrain from flaming me...
I'm no noob to flashing the rom on my phone as I have successfully carried out the procedure multiple times. However, on this occasion things didn't go as planned. I began the procedure to update my S3 via odin to the new firmware that was released yesterday, however when the process got to 'system.img' the status bar just hung in the same place (just past the beginning of the bar) for a good 20 minutes... I panicked and unplugged my phone... BAD MOVE. I now get the error message "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again." and the only thing I can do is put my phone in odin mode, which I did, and tried to install the stock jelly bean rom, the exact same thing happened as before...
What should I do?
Thanks in advance

I don't believe we have that for our model.
If you can still get download mode there's hope, maybe not a lot in this case, but there is some.
Try to flash cwm or twrp via odin. If successful boot recovery and try to flash a stock rom. Hopefully it only screwed up the system partition. ...
Never unplug till odin says either PASS, FAIL, or RESET. You may end up really lucky this time. If its taking a long time, just leave the room.

When I try a whole firmware flash it just hangs right after it starts, and when I tried to boot recovery (was that what was previously suggested?) it says fail...

Wow! Ok, I am glad you got it working again, but you took a huge risk flashing that. Luckily its just the kernel aparently, but you should never flash anything from the international forum. More hard bricks have occured from flashing international stuff than anything else.
Just pointing this out so you or others reading this don't take it as meaning they can flash international roms and mods.
Glad it did work out for you though!

Thank you for the info! I keep that in mind so I don't run into any other problems. Now, I'm deciding whether I should try to install that firmware that caused the problem again... Even though I know what to do in the event that odin hangs, the results may not be the same... What do you think?
On a side note: It seems I only text messages and app settings, luckily I backed up my phone with Kies a few days ago so it's all good

Before you do, check under the battery so you are certain of the phone model. There are 3 variants if the T999, and they cannot flash each others firmware.
Also, I don't believe you mentioned which firmware you tried, or I missed it, but which was it?
And i said it before, but do not unplug during flash. It may seem to take forever if it hangs, but it will eventually Fail out if it does.

Ahhhh, well, I know now why it didn't brick your phone when you flsshed thst kernel! You do hsve the correct phone for that. So you will need to reverse what I told you and do not flsdh anything from this forum! Sorry for the confusion, I assumed you had a T999.
It sounds like you have the right firmware, but I know very little about the international models. They are very different than ours. You should definitely go to the International forum from here on. Very little info you get here will be relevant and you cannot use any of our roms or otherwise.
Good luck!

If you can still get into Odin mode, there's still hope. Have you tried using Odin to flash a stock image instead of Kies?

Load in pda leave everything checkedbin odin thats checked.
Rooting isnt hard at all just got my s4 3 hrs ago rooted in 5 minutes soon as I walked in the door.
You need the Root_m919uvuamdl.zip
And then flash MDB setUIDoff .zip
Then flash superuser.
Thats it.

Let me ask you one thing. .. is the com port in odin coming up recognize the phone ...if so you are not bricked. . The two vital things u need to see is com port turn on usually blue color and download mode..
The problem def lies somewhere else possibly bad tar file .
Try to find another source for the stock rom tar file another option is boot into recovery and flash a stock rom if you have recovery still

Uninstalled and reinstalled drivers and Odin, rebooted my comp and used the Sammy USB cable.
Well glad you got it.... but i still find it hard to believe any usb was the issue Usb recognition is usb recognition. .if odin seen the phone usb was working. ..its literally that simple... the problem initially explained was that the pit error was coming up... that all relates usually to a file error .
But glad it worked out and u didnt loose a 600$ phone.

I own three Samsung devices, and my sgs2 will not transfer files or work with adb when I use a generic best buy rocketfish usb cable. The original Samsung cable works every time.

I have seen that a lot.
I actually bought a few spare Samsung ones from eBay to make sure I would always have a good cable.

Well... one case to the next is different. .. ive never had issue using a lg cord moto cord or htc on a samsung device. .
I just think that the op post if you read his initial problem and how it was stated i think it had to do with trying to odin in the pit section instead of pda.
Ive seen this issue before.
Once again glad its fixed

Nope, it was in the PDA section. I'm familiar with Odin and used it several time in the past (on my Note 8.0) . I believe the error message was either due to corrupt download and/or the USB cable. Anyway so glad it was solved quickly and thanks again for your help.

Pit file. That solved my problems. Flash it alone, then flash a good stock rom.
