Dear all,
Apologies if this has been covered elsewhere.
My International Note 2 (GT-N7100) shows the screen "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue..." I was not flashing at the time. The phone rebooted itself and then got stuck on that screen. I can enter download mode, but not recovery mode. I have tried using different versions of Odin to flash official firmware as well as the correct PIT file. All end up failing. See attached for some screenshots
I am not certain if the phone has experienced some sort of SDS.
I have read about workarounds for corrupt partitions.
Does anyone have any experience with this issue.
Thanks in advance

I tried to update my Samsung Galaxy Note II to 4.1.2 but I encountered an error on odin and now its stuck with the a message of " Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again."
However Kies is not recognizing the phone when i plug it to the usb cable. but when i try odin it says its added. I cant get it to download mode.:crying:
How do I get this fixed?
I need your help badly...
what exactly you getting while rebooting to download mode?
If you getting msg to use recovery mode while rebooting to download mode, then this is also download mode, flash using odin
The same thing happened for me. It won't update no matter what you do. I tried reinstall kies and drivers but no luck.
And the strange part is if you like I did wait a couple of days the update won't be available anymore. It will start saying that you already have the latest firmware. I read somewhere that it was maybe caused because samsung found a bug in the firmware and then they quickly rool it back

Any help on the above post would be greatly appreciated.
I believe my issue is that I tried rooting it but had the "new" firmware on the device so the root process didn't work. Now, from what I can tell, the boot.img is fubar'd.
I can't charge the phone when it's off. Goes straight to the firmware upgrade failed screen. I try to ODIN factory image and it fails on write of boot.img.
Had the device a whole 2 hrs before it became a paper weight.:crying:
Can you go into download mode?

Happened to me once as well,i accidently lost the USB connection from the PC and all i did was go into the KIES thing and then click on emergency firmware recovery.It worked well for me but in your case you might consider going into download mode(vol down + home + power button) and then flashing a new stock firmware from samfirmware via ODIN
Hey,
I have Note 2 (GT-N7100) its primary market is Europe. i was using it and it suddenly stucks and after sometime it restarted with this error "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. connect to kies select recovery mode and try again" I have just bought it and it happened . i Have tried to resolve it through odin mode because recovery mode is not opening. it is only going in download mode ... I downloaded it and used odin to put it on my phone. It says successful but after restart same error remains. kies isn't detecting my device. I'm an absolute noob when it comes to this stuff. In odin it says [Successful] but problem does not go. Help me resolving this problem.
Thanks.

Hey just download siyah kernel and flash it with odin by connecting your device and then you will easily get into download mode.

There is no Siyah kernel for Note 2. I hope you didn't say that on purpose...
Hello there.
I have bought used Samsung which came with a software problem. Already tried to flash oem firmware but there is no success.
Some information about the note 10.1 that i have tried until now:
Seem there is no recovery, when keeping +VOL & Power it wont go to recovery mode, while keeping -VOL & Power it goes to DOWNLOADING
Tried to flash stock firmware & recovery still same, the procedure ends with no error (ODIN) but the problem still exists.
Already flashed the .pit downloaded from internet N8018.pit which did not solve the problem.
While trying to boot (connected to pc) it comes window with MTU drivers which cannot be installed. (windows7)
Any idea what could solve my problem?
Does that mean that tablet has problem with emmc chip ?
Hope for any answer
regards
gt-N8013 is not note 2014 edition.
you can try flashing on another pc. odin should solve all problems.
Hello dear,
this is my first post, so please spare my little knowledge,
the problem is i have a T-mobile Samsung S-III SGH-T999 which was working fine, one day it stop booting and stuck on
Samsung galaxy logo. I have to recover my files. so i try to root the same from a thread on xdadeelopers
i end up to a state in odin mode and a triangle saying "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. please select recovery mode in
Kies & try again."
i think what i did wrong is that i used a wrong CF-Auto-Root.tar file which was for SGH-T999V-4.4.2
whereas i have SGH-T999 on 4.3 OS.
now i can only go to download mode but when i try to write something with odin it stuck on initialization
kies did not detect any thing but keep on searching the device.
can someone help me!....................
Thanks in anticipation.
