After trying to install the stock firmware in ODIN I'm stuck on the screen "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again."
PLEASE HELP!
What firmware did you try to flash? You probably flashed the wrong one. Go back in download mode and flash the stock ROM from your country from sammobile. Hope this helps.

Okay. This happened to me like a week ago. First I gotta ask. Did u make a back up?
If so I can help, if not, we'll not much I can do, we'll theirs another option.
If u did make a back up, we'll first enter custom recovery. This is different since the tab S has no battery.
Here's the steps
1) turn it off. Thus is weird since no battery, but theirs a away.
2)Connect to charger and start charging
3)push Dat thing into bootloader.
4) once in bootloader, either go into custom recovery or power off. This was weird for me, I did both in this situation and both work, (not at the same time. I tried one and then tried the other)
5) either way, you should be in recovery, if you turned off then you should ever recovery and if u are their then yay!
6) lastly you should flash your back up.
If you don't have a back up then you could ask for a back up,
Don't have recovery? Then flash a recovery on that tab.
Hope this helped in any way...

None of that makes much sense.

Try and take battery out wait 30 seconds and as soon as u put it back in hold vol up power button and home button that should take u to the custom recovery u put on ur phone. And then go from there you should still have ur original rom on there

By any chance, did you make a backup of your previous rom? Once you get into recovery, just restore that backup and you'll be good as gold. If not, the emergency software recovery in Kies should work. We've all been there, dont worry just makes sure to always read the OP several times before you do anything. When I first started, I soft bricked my phone 6 times (nice, eh?) but now, I'm addicted to flashing things, lol as long as you read carefully and prepare, everything will be good.

nope i sure didnt make one. but Ive been able to download the rom and finally get it into recovery. running good now. It was sketchy there for a while. But good to go now. Thanks.
I upgraded to 4.3 stock. Then rooted, then upgraded to 4.4.2 custom.
Then decide to get back to 4.3. By a mistake i restored in ODIN to 4.1.1 (stupid me)
After restore, phone won't boot. Actually I cannot do anything......except for going into download mode, where I got "knox warranty void:1". And that is it! Nothing else can be done........i cannot even boot into recovery............
Any help??? Or should i toss it against the wall??

And yes, i did install recovery via odin. But i cannot boot into recovery.....
Home+volume up and hold in power until you see first screen, then let go of power but contine to hold in home+volume up until you see TWRP screen.
Otherwise, use "adb reboot recovery" command.

Yup.
Mine is doing the exact same thing. Wont show up in adb and wont boot in recovery, but can get in download, flashed twrp through odin and still cant get into recovery
There is some procedure that forces recovery that involves taking out the battery at a certain point during bootup, but I don't know it. Maybe start a new question thread about that?
Try flashing the 4.1.1 firmware from sammobile. it is the older of the 2 from att and it does not show a version number on the Sammobile site. Then flash root/cwm all through odin. Then do the battery pull trick to recovery. You may need the root and custom recovery to get the rest to work right.

Done that, NO luck.
When you pull the battery does it boot automatically into download mode? Or do you have to power the device up yourself?
Also have you tried to odin a root injected 4.1.1 fw yet? You may have to dig through the dev section but I know they are there.
Have you tried flashing the leak 4.3 yet? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2496292

After battery pull out, I have power it back on. (power-home-vol/up - Galaxy Note II screen, and sits there. power-home-vol/down - download screen)
Tried 4.1.1 in odin, tried 4.1.2 as well, and rooted it in odin right away, all went OK, passed, but after battery pull out, still didn't go beyond Galaxy Note II screen.
Tried 4.3 in odin, but at the end, got "failed" result.
Damn.............for some reason, i know this has something to do with bootloader. I am not "android" guy, but rather PC computer freak... ......if i only know how to completely reformat entire storage space, and start from the scratch.....but unfortunately, this is not a hard drive....

Just for me try this: flash 4.1.1 and as soon as the device reboots pull the battery. Dont let it get a chance to do anything. Then boot it into download mode and flash the chainfire superuser with Stock recovery built in. That can be found a in the stickey how to revery to stock thread in this exact forum. Then on reboot after flash pull the battery and let it sit for 5 min, no less. Then try to boot into recovery. If you can get into stock recovery there is hope.
I know you may have tried this already but please try it one last time for me. Keep in mind you should pull the phone Off the usb as soon as the odin flashs are done. Pulling the battery while it is still plugged in wont cut the power the way you need it to in order to reboot properly. Also if you have an external sd card in pull that sucker out as well. Sd cards can hang things up sometimes.
Like I said spitballing here. If all else fails maybe you can talk a dev into wrapping a rom into an odinable .tar file and try to force a rom on it.

Boot it holding the volume up button. This should get you into so-called "recovery" where you can, among other things, restore it to defaults.
If recovery also doesn't work (which would be unusual), boot it holding volume DOWN button. This will get you into a "download" mode where you can use ODIN to flash new recovery (such as CWM recovery which is very nice and powerful), or even flash entire firmware from scratch.
Good luck, let us know how it goes ~
[edit] oh and do all that while having it connected to USB power, in case the battery is empty.
still doesnt work

Anything doesn't work , When I boot while holding HOME and volume up (recovery) appears the blue advice in the upper left corner and about 2 segs after the cellphone restart again, again and so on, When I boot with the down (download) the process on kies working good but when ends the cellphone restart again, again and so on. I'm start to think that something in the hardware is damage :crying:
looks like you messed something up there...
Anyway, if your phone is rooted, and/or you don't care about warranty you can get it in download mode (you said it works fine with kies until reset, so I suppose it means that download mode is at least accessible).
And after that use Odin to reinstall the stock rom completely.
Or, again with Odin install custom recovery, and then whatever ROM you like.
While working with odin, be sure to stick to the guides here on XDA. (for a custom recovery see: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2364980)

If you're not entirely stock you'll have trouble using Kies.
I myself had trouble when tried to revert to stock ROM from CM.
It failed to restore NANDroid backup every time, and I also didn't succeed in flashing the stock image with Odin as well.
In the end, I succeeded with this ROM (which is modified stock TW), usin ODIN. You can try this, just read and understand the instructions in the thread before you do anything.
Ironically, after a couple of days after reverting to stock rom I was so annoyed by the speed decrease compared to CM, that I reinstalled CyanogenMod back, found TouchWiz stuff I missed via separate apps, and I'm pretty happy with it ever since.
Bottom Line: anyways, if you already on custom stuff with altered warranty, you must get custom recovery working first, then it will be simple.

Hi, I'm kinda new to rooting android phone.I just got a galaxy s6 edge from tmobile and I would lIke to root the phone. Searching around the forum but still doesn't ubderstand how's it work. So I got a galaxy s6 edge, baseband version G95TUVU3DOI1, come with 5.1.1 SMG 925T. Question is if I'm root the phone will i able to restore back to stock firmware, will tmobile able to find out if I rooted or not? Because I'm in Jump! Program and plan to switch new phone next year. And its there any easy step by step guide to root the phone. I don't really care about Samsung pay, would like to have fingerprint sensor if possible. Thank you
Before you do anything, understand that you WILL TRIP KNOX AND BREAK SAMSUNG PAY. Also, it is your choice to modify your device and this process seems to work differently for differnt people, so if anything happens, it's on you. However, there are several threads here that can help you if anything goes wrong
Okay, make a backup of all your stuff on SmartSwitch
You're going to want to download ODIN 3.10.7 from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2711451
Then you're going to want to download UniKernel v8 from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...d-development/kernel-stockmod-kernel-t3100395
Open ODIN on your computer and don't touch anything yet
Then you're going to put your phone into download mode by turning it off, then holding POWER+VOL DOWN+HOME until a blue screen appears.
Press VOL UP to enter download mode and connect your phone to your computer with the cable that came with your phone
Wait for the little box at the top left to turn blue
On ODIN, click the AP button and locate the UniKernel v8 file that you downloaded before
Once you've found it, double click it to fill in the AP field with the file
Click START and do not touch anything until it's done.
Your phone will restart and once it comes back up, you'll be rooted. It can take several minutes for it to fully boot, so give it time.
Now, this is optional, but if you want a custom recovery to flash custom ROMS, download TWRP onto your computer from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmo...recovery-twrp2-8-6-0-g925t-5-1-1-of6-t3143002
Flash that file through ODIN using the same process as you used to flash UniKernel.
This recovery will let flash custom ROMs. I recommend XstreStoLite as it is very good on battery life, but you will not be able to use WiFi calling or VOLTE. You can download it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...xtrestolite-deodexed-mod-edition-1-3-t3119968
Let me know how it goes.

Yes. There is a small chance, but the method I described is the exact same method I used on my device and I've had no issues. Even if you do, there is almost a 0% chance of a hard brick unless you touch something you're not supposed to touch, and if you do soft brick, there are a few threads here that should be able to help. More than likely flashing stock firmware will fix any problems you have.

Where are you getting the firmware from? What version of ODIN are you using? What port are you using in ODIN to flash the firmware?
There is a Mega download of the DOI1 firmware somewhere around here. I recommend downloading that and flashing using the AP port in ODIN 3.10.7, using the cable that came with your phone. This is the exact method I used to return to stock with no issues.
