I'm going to overlook the fact you already have another thread open that you were using to solve your problem i know how frustrating it can be to have a borked phone.
Here's a link on installing cwm:

Does Odin recognize the phone? If so use one of the rooted or unrooted one clicks.

Hey OP, looks like you were on cna before. What and how did you try to flash?
I have a another s2phone which I use to test roms before I put them on my regular phone. Odin doesn't recognize my phone.
I was trying to do the steps to unroot my Sprint S3 because I was having SD card problems and couldn't figure them out and wanted to take it to the sprint store. While I was flashing the stock rom with odin it failed and on my s3 there's a screen saying "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again. I opened Kies but it won't connect to my phone, what should I do?

Kies should not be on your phone or computeer. if you have it installed on either remove it. it conflicts with odin. have you tried this guide? try this guide and use the files that I provide in the thread...
Unroot and return to stock.

Seeing you have gap issues, I assume you are trying an ASOP or CM. Can't answer that as I dislike AOSP and CM ROMs and well never load them on my phone.
Edit: I'm happy you were able to resolve your issues.
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.
In serious need of your help here guys. I bricked my T-mo SGH-M919 today trying to root. Now I can't flash the stock recovery thru Odin. Tried a zillion times, uninstalled and reinstalled drivers restarted my comp, done everything I could think of still no dice.
I keep getting this Fail message in Odin saying " There is no PIT partition" tried to search for a PIT file for my specific model but couldn't find any. I even tried recovery thru kies emergency recovery and failed at the last step. Anybody can help me please.

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?

Don't use and dont need pit file.
Find the stock shipped tar file (aka) 4.1.2 Rom
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.
If u have odin Booted its 1000% NOT BRICKED

Had that and tried flashing it thru Odin several times and I keep getting the same error message. "there is no PIT partition"
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.
