hey guys i need help.
I flashed the mj5 bootlaoder, then flashed an mk4 rom and i was able to use the rom. After awhile i decided to restore a backup of an aosp rom 4.3. The restore was successful and i was able to use my phone but when i tried to go to recovery my phone displayed an error message "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in kies and try again". I can only access my phone via the default recovery and odin mode. I tried to install an official 4.1.2 firmware but it fails during the 'writing system' part. Anyone know what the problem is? Is this what is called 'soft brick'? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks,

Im trying to flash the stock firmware back to my device since I accidentally booted it with no OS(bad rom install) But I can't seem to get that to work because of Odin.
Is there any other way I can fix this?
I do have a nandroid backup on the device, but I can't seem to access the recovery menu. All I can access is the download menu.
Install Kies on your PC, this will provide the newer drivers(use old Kies(called up to 4.2.2))! Odin should recognize your device without any problems. If not, please write the OS in here.

My non-rooted GT-N7100 didn't want to boot after a longer period without battery charge. After fully charging, i got this screen: dropbox dot com/s/jy8sirmpgp6zm7h/20140823_214100.jpg
Later, i got the "firmware upgrade encountered an issue"-message. I tried to flash the latest stock ROM (via ODIN, from sammobile, checked MD5) but I get a fail when writing system.img.
So I decided to flash a custom recovery (twrp v2.8.0.1) (and trip knox..) to flash via an OTG-cable, but this also doesn't work.
TWRP tells me there is "no OS installed" when trying to reboot.
What am I doing wrong?

try the steps under "3. Odin Instructions for the Samsung Galaxy S III "based" devices".
TWRP recovery should not be an issue if you rooted your phone before installing it. But, if you somehow have messed it up, try getting the firmware from Sammobile and flash it using odin. That should also replace your recovery to stock.
Hope this helps.

I can flash a bootloader, recovery, pit-file, .. I'm using the right cable/drivers/.. It's just impossible to flash system.img to that partition. Twrp/philz/cwmrecovery give me an error when trying to wipe. Is it possible that that partition is corrupt?
I've tried a few stock roms and different custom/pre-rooted roms. None are flashable via odin (1.85, 3.07, 3.09), via adb sideload or USB-stick. I can't mount micro SD cards.
The phone was 4.3 when problems started; does anyone know where i can find the latest universal 4.3 stock rom? Sammobile only shows 4.4 and up..
Bricked?
Try twrp 2.7.2.1. and see if it works.
So, I was downagrading from 4.4.4 to 4.2.2!
I successfully flashed the ROM but was stuck on boot loop! So I reflashed my ROM.& in between this error came saying "Firmware update encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies"
Now whenever I try to flash stock ROM via Odin, my phone restarts in between... Recovery ain't working. :3
Need help please
Okay so my tablet 3 lite was rooted but I messed it up and it was stuck in cwm-based recovery and I tried to get it out but using odin and the stock firmware but when I clicked start after a couple minutes it said failed and now it says "Firmware encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again." but I went to kies and tried emergency firmware recovery but it does not show my tablet on it please any help would be amazing I just would like to get my tablet back to stock
before /how i got here
i wanted to install a rom on my n5110
first I flashed twrp through odin and i could never access the recovery
so i tried to follow these instructions
https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/n5110/install
which use heimball (i have used adb before, and i did have some trouble installing himball on el capitan, but managed to install version 1.4.1 since then i found that maybe it doesnt work anymore)
this is where the trouble started after flashing i was unable to access stock rom or recovery and was stuck at boot image.
after that I tried to flash this rom via odin (return to stock)
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2773712
now...
somehow this failled and i ended up with a screen that reads (firmware upgrade encountered an issue. please select recovery via kies....)
since then I have tried flashing again via the above method which failled
and another stock (N5110UEEMF1 from https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2289441) which may have further confused things as realise that this is the out of the box stock and I was on kitkat
which gave the error " invalid magic string"
I have searched for a similar enough problem but not found please help

Download the stock ROM from updato.com or sammobile.com and flash it with Odin. If it gets stuck in a bootloop after flashing the stock ROM, boot into recovery and perform a factory reset.
I recommend flashing with the original Samsung USB cable, a USB 2.0 port, and Odin 3.07.
