Note 2 Bricked - can't unbrick - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys
My note 2 GT-7100 won't turn on anymore as soon as I turn it on I get the screen with "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies $ try again.
I got this after I was trying to install the latest firmware on my note 2. The file I firmware I downloaded is N7100XXUEMK9_N7100OXXEMK4_OXX
I tried to reinstall it with Odin but it always gives me an error then I did some search online and tried with Kies as well but when it gets to the update it tell me that I can't do the update.
What should I do?
If I go on download mode the screen has written this :
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME : GT-N7100
CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD : YES (5 COUNTS)
CURRENT BINARY : SAMSUNG OFFICIAL
SYSTEM STATUS : CUSTOM
KNOX WARRANTY VOID : 0
RP SWREV : A2
What should I do to unbrick it?
Thanks

[Q] Firmware upgrade encountered an issue.Select recovery mode in Kies & try againn
Hey guys i just got my Galaxy s 3 tonight and I came home and tried to root it.I was in Odin. I selected PDA, selected the tar file and tried to root. It started then said "fail." I tried to restart but I'm stuck at a screen saying "firmware upgrade encountered an issue. please select recovery mode in kies and try again." I am using a Rogers Galaxy S3 in Canada. All I'm seeing on my screen is "firmware upgrade encountered an issue. please select recovery mode in kies and try again." At the top left it says:
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: SGH-I747M
CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: Yes (1 counts)
SYSTEM STATUS: Official
QUALCUM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE
Just for giggles, plug your phone into Odin on that screen. If it recognizes it (blue com box lights up), use that screen as download mode. But, i would download your file again, making sure to get the one for the I747M.
Really?

If you can get your device back into download mode, you could relay the stock firmware from www.stockbroker.net. Select the file you downloaded under pda in Odin and flash it. Hope this helps. You can try to root again from there.

Upgraded to 4.1.1 even after soft-brick !
Soft-brick aka " firmware upgrade encountered an issue " - screen in galaxy s3 sgh-i747 is a warning bell that somehow device might get interrupted while updating firmware , now i tried twice with old odin , and twice with new odin , what you got to do is just keep on trying and make sure that your galaxy s3 SGH-i747 drives are installed then after restart your pc , tried kies already , just waste of times , wasted 2 hours yet that official software didnt help me to upgrade or recover my device !
Finally i executed Odin 3.7 ( run as admin ) then --> ticked box : auto reboot , F. reset time ! upload that Firmware upgrade of Jelly bean in PDA section and wait till it gets loaded then press start ! ( i had to do this 3 times n then it worked , so dont lose the hope , keep trying over and over again ) and it will take 6~7 minutes as new OS is big around 1 GB ! so dont unplug device and ur done , then after completion , cellphone will restart with new settings and new OS !

Im going to try this again and again I have the same screen on my verizon galaxy note 2 that I WAS trying to unlock for t mo and just went about it the wrong way. My screen says the same ol Firmware upgrade encountered an issue...... I CAN get into Odin to upload a firmware and IT DOES recognize the phone BUT no matter what firmware I try nothing works its stuck in the same mode. I think I have looked at all available videos and threads on this but nothing :crying: should I keep tryong to flash the rom or just give up? Any more help is appreciated thanks!

This is for the S3, flashing it's firmware on the Note 2 won't work. I highly suggest you go on the Note 2 section.
I found a fix for this problem

1)Download this file www.mediafire.com/?bbfsnnub9gzg5wj
2)Go into download mode
3) connect your device to the computer and run ODIN as an administrator
4)Open the file and click start
5) Your phone should reboot
6) if your phone gets in a boot loop you need to download the latest firmware for your device
I hope this could help you, if the instructuions were unclear, send me a message and i will do my best to help you!

ODIN MODE vs KIES, IS THIS TAB S SM T800 BRICKED?

Hello All-
Things were great and I was getting settled into the new tab when one morning it just crashed.
Todaqy, I am am staring at a screen that says
ODIN MODE
Product Name SM t800
current binary: samsung official
system status: official
Secure Download: enabled
Knox Warranty void:0 (0x0000)
AP swrev: a1
So I think I need to flash this device as it will no boot.
Occasionally I can get it to run the samsung logo, the logo starts flashing , and then the screen goes dark.
Any advice on next steps would be appreciated.

Samsung s4 mini bricked/ stuck in download mode

Hello
After trying to root myS4 mini it got stuck in odin mode. No big deal, flash the stock rom and it works again but it's not.
It keeps booting up in odin download mode and with flashing with odin i constant get the error (auth :fail)
How can i solve this problem?
I use odin 3.09, the right stock rom from sammobile and updated and tried different cables and usb ports (and even computers!)
The phone won't boot up normally anymore.. thanks in advance! - Allejandro

probably you are trying to flash rom with old bootloader when you have a newer one
should say
Sv rev. check fail: fused : 2, Binary : 1
on phone, means you have rev 2 bootloader on phone but are trying to flash older rev 1
But how can I solve this problem?
