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

I also have same problem pleae help me.Odin cant recognize my phone,I receave message that firmare upgrade an issue please connect kies.I also try to recover my phone via kies but after complete downloading it stuck at cant transfer to my phone.Pleaes help me Guys.

Your current firmware version is not supported by kies for firmware update.

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.

your status is modified so you can not update with kies or OTA..do your research first mate..read this thread,you will find the solution.

[Q] Phone not booting after failed update..Urgent

Hi,
On my Note 2 7100 , I have given my phone to service centre guys to upgrade to 4.3 from 4.1.2.
After they attempted to upgrade the phone is not booting
The system status says Custom and they say it because you have rooted your phone and we cant help.
But before I gave my phone to them I have checked the phone there was no super user also every screen was looking official.
So I am not really sure if my phone was ever rooted or they screwed up my phone.
According to them if i install the old firmware my phone should boot.
But since I have no idea how it was rooted i am not able to do any thing.
Please help ... Urgent

Flash a custom ROM using ODIN Guide here. dun use the odin in the description. It's outdated. use this instead. Flash a custom ROM (or official) (official 4.3 has kies though) If u wan 4.3 without bloatware, try this.
Hope I helped!
which rom should i use
Hi,
I have tried to flash it with stock rom but its not booting.
Which rom should I use to flash the device now ?
Keep pressing buttons continuously for download mode
Then the upgrade failed message will go and then it will enter into download mode. after this you can try again.

Do a mega wipe (if u dun mind). The service guys may have put in a wrong modem so, flash a modem for ur phone. Download ur modem here. This fixed my phone 5 minutes ago when i accidentally flashed a N7100 ROM (Ditto Note 3) on my N7105.

[Q] Unrooting my S4mini GT-I9195

Hello guys,
Previously I have rooted my S4mini with the advices given from this forum.
However, I am going to pass my phone over to my sister.
Do i have to unroot the phone first before reformatting it? I remember my software ended with ML4 previously.Doesn't matter if the warranty is voided. I just want it to look like its new from a shop.
I am not very sure of the process of unrooting. I have read http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2521928 guide but the software I'm unsure which I should download or what I should do. I reside in Singapore.
I have found this website that has the firmwares but im unsure which to download. http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/
Can anyone please offer me some advice? Thanks !
I heard you can unroot via kies?
How does that work.
I cant seem to find the stock firmwares i need to dl.
Thanks!

U can`t unroot via Kies. From which country are u ?
Just go on sammobile and download the latest version of firmware avaible for your country, flash it with Odin and then factory reset your phone. It will be good as new
I have found it thanks.
I am unsure about the flashing part..
Trying the guide in the link above..
They told me to download either kies or drivers. But the drivers may be too old when i clicked the link

[Q] Flash T210 4.4.2 firmware into T2105?

Hi, i bought a Galaxy Tab 3 7" Disney Edition but i don't care about kids stuffs, is it possible to flash it with latest T210 (ITV) firmware 4.4.2 with Odin?
My model is T2105 (ITV) and is still at 4.1.2
Thanks
It might work. Flash a custom (TWRP) recovery to backup the device first, then give it a try. Only problem is, anything could brick the device since there seems to be little to no info.
Some ideas:
Soe ifo on the recovery:
from http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-3/general/root-sm-t210-r-using-heimdall-t2936061
I used the Pit mapping for the T210. The recovery partition is "mmcblk0p10." I checked the partition info on my T210R using Partition Table by Lakshman. The T210R also has its Recovery partition on "mmcblk0p10," so I expect it to work no problem. And TWRP Odin flashables tend to be compatible with several 7.0 variants.

There do seem to be Odin flashables for the 4.1 software, which should be able to recover the device, but I would obtain one of those first.

You can try The Nolekat Rom. It is fest Best Customrom for our Tab.
Sooooo.....
Did it work? Im curious as I got the T2105 tab for my kid and the darn thing is really slow for running Spider- Man Unlimited and some other apps
I want to put Cyanogenmod on it or some other rom with less crap
Ive been after the answer to this as well. I have the 2105 myself, and have TWRP installed and root, but not one single custom rom has worked. They just bootloop. Then you have to ODIN the stock rom. I have the original rom from sammobile, but they only have the factory 4.1.2 roms. Im wondering if a stock rom from the 210r or another Tab3 wifi rom would work.
It seems almost every tab3 from around the globe has been updated to 4.4.2 except this one...ive been checking sammobile everyday, but still no update for the 2105...

Your Bootloop prob is like the same as we have on The other device.
Flash a recovery with The Kitkat KK extension.
Well, actually its not a bootloop...it just reboots to recovery. Ill give a KK recovery a shot. any suggestions on which one would be the best? Or the recovery most likely to work? CWM or TWRP? Anything to get this off JB and onto KitKat...lol.. Apprecitae your help!

Yes, thats bootloop into recovery.
I prefere CWM or PhilzTouch on all my device.
Right on. Ill give those recoveries a shot. I have used CWM in the past (HTC Aria), but ive been using TWRP since i got the Galaxy Nexus. Ill give them both a try and report back in a few days... My internet connection sucks ass, so it takes hours to download a rom...

Its amazing that everyone is posting when they have question but no one cares to post their findings. I (also an owner of Galaxy Tab3 Kids T2105 bought in Australia) was fed up with the old and slow firmware. So, I decided to go ahead and flash a new firmware (T210XXBNI1 4.4.2 UK upgrade for SM-T210). First I tried to upgrade with Odin 3.9 but the process would fail after "Nand Write Start". Then I tried it with Odin ver. 3.07 and the process went smoothly and now I am a proud owner of Samsung Galaxy Tab3 with 4.4.2 Kitkat. It does feel a little bit swifter than the Jellybean. Anyways, so far so good. Will post if encountered any problem !

thanks for report thethakuri... i tried to do this too, but for me it doesnt work ... after i installed the 4.4.2, i had a black screen on boot and my tablet dont charge offline... so, i turned to 4.1.2... can you give me any sugesttion?
Update from me: Just upgraded my US SM-T2105 Kids tablet to the UK KK version as well (T210XXBOA3_T210BTUBOA2_Home.tar.md5). Did not work with Odin 3.11 but worked with 3.07 as mentioned above.
The Tab3 Kids is so far holding up very well with the 4.4.2 Firmware. Much more responsive.
Only issue I have is that it switches on when charging and the screen is not very responsive afterwards. A reboot fixes that.
I came across a post somewhere that there is a new bootloader required to fix that but I can't find the post anymore . If someone has that link please post it here. Thanks !

Did you ever find a fix for the screen issue? I'm going to give this a shot this weekend my daughter really wants pokemon go on her tablet!
Unfortunately I could not find it anymore.
Using ours now just with the new firmware and make it a conscious effort to switch it off after charging it. So far works fine.
