Hi Folks,
I tried to update my gt-n5100(unrooted) to 4.4.2 through OTA and this stopped after 25% installing, then I tried Kies, but it got stuck at 0%.
I downloaded the firmware from sammobile and used odin to flash it...however it got stuck system img. After three (!?) hours I unplugged the phone and when I tried to go in recovery it said "Firmware upgrade encountered as issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again".
I tried to connect to kies, but it fails to connect (maybe because it's in debugging mode). I've read that you should flash it with it's original firmware, but I can't find 4.1.2 anywhere.....at sammoble it only lists 4.4.2
I'm out of options...please help me, without this tablet I don't have a phone and a work tablet....
Kies 2 does not recognize 4.4.2, you must upgrade to kies 3.
Plus you may have not used Odin 3.09 which may fail during update. Once you go 4.4.2 you cannot go back. Don't try to flash 4.1.2 or 4.2.2.
I used kies 3...but to no avail.
I flashed with odin 3.09...... Do I have to repartition my phone with a pit file?

So I was trying to root my Galaxy S3 and for some reason it failed and my phone reboots to a screen that says "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies". But I tried Kies and it wont recognize my phone. My phone had android 4.3 on it. I also tried using a 4.1.2 stock rom on odin and I get an error saying "sw rev check fail" on my phone and the flash fails. Please help me im desperate at this point.
If you had 4.3 OTA and tried to flash 4.1.2 its a good possibility that you bricked your device. Can you get into download mode? If so try to flash the 4.3 tar file in Odin. Good luck

if I can get into download mod is it fixeable..I did the same thing as the poster above
I wanted to update to 4.3 on my ATT note 2, but while I was on 4.1.2 stock rooted, I took away the update server thing, so I Odin'd it back to stock 4.1.2 and updated to 4.3. I did the CF Auto root thing, but knox is screwing everything up, so I tried to re-flash in Odin the 4.1.2 and now I get a screen that says "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again" after the 4.1.2 odin update FAILS. Now, I can boot into download mode, but I cannot boot into recovery mode, and since the firmware update through Kies failed, I can't do a firmware emergency recovery BECAUSE I can't boot into recovery mode...Someone please...please help i'm freaking out..

Odin the 4.3 files and it should come back. 4.3 bootloader doesn't play terribly nice with downgrading.

PLEASE HELP
I am trying to unroot and restore stock ROM so that I can sell my Note 2014 10.1.
I am using ODIN 3.09 and P600UEUCNK1_P600XARCNK1_HOME.tar.md5
ODIN keeps giving me a FAIL. Looks like "Cant Open Serial Port". I have attached a screen shot from ODIN.
Any ideas as to what I can do here?
Thanks
You need to extract the zip file, and edit .md5 off the end, leaving a .tar file to flash. Make sure you unroot via superuser, then factory reset, then download mode.....Will take 7-9 minutes. Wait for reboot, and removed to show in ODIN. Just did this myself, and device shows official, and recovery is stock, without even the Knox splash showing recovery bit! Easy breezy. I flashed on top of 4.4.4 bootloader the 4.4.2 .tar, and let it update OTA. T-Mobile P607-T Gluck!
Worked like a charm my friend...Thanks so much

I followed these steps. Flashed same tar file, and successful install. Although i cant update software because says my version has been modified. Anyway to still get updates and be totally stock?
Flash updates from Kies instead OTA is never going to work again.

Hi Guys,
I have this old Samsung Note 2, which is the korean version ( SHV-E250K) and all of a sudden i faced a bootloop. I tried every possible ways to flash the firmware, but odin keeps on failing. Can someone please help me to get my device back to working. Tried so many different firmwares but odin keeps on failing. And tried flashing a custom recovery, Odin will flash it, but cant log in to the recovery mode
Did you try with another cable? and also try with an older Odin version. In SHV-E250S, odin 3.07 and 3.09 works without issues.
