I tried to update to lollipop for my T805Y. Odin failed half way through... no sure why. So I thought I will revert back to 4.4.2, but now that failed too while using Odin. Anyone with any ideas? I rooted the unit before and it worked fine. Just yesterday I ran Odin to revert back to Stock 4.4.2 without any issues. Thx.
std error
Fixed after restarting the PC and using a different USB port.

I've rooted my S3 before when it was android 4.0.3 but when the OTA for 4.1.1 came out, I updated and my root was gone. So now, I wanted to root my phone again, so through odin I tried to root with CF-Root. However instead of Odin saying root successful, it said FAILED. So now my phone is stuck in this screen saying Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again.
What do I do?
My phone is a telus 4.1.1 S3.

I got that once on a failed Odin. Pull the battery, reboot into download and try again. Make sure you're flagging the right file.

I had a similar issue a while back. The 1st thing I did was make sure that my phone could be detected via USB thru Odin. I deleted all drivers on my computer and reinstalled current up to date Sammy drivers for the device to my computer. I then downloaded a current version of Odin, along with a stock .tar file Of the previous version that it ran(I.e I.C.S) and downgraded back. Afterwards I was able to boot my phone up. Receive a software update available notification, and re-update the phone.. I then found a alternative root method.( I believe I used skips kit) and re-rooted with no problems. This happened to me before with a S3 and a epic 4g, this was my issue both times. I'm at work I wish I had more time to post links, I'm positive you can find what you need on XDA. I did I hope this helps

have a gs3 that was on 4.1.2, it is rooted and had a custom recovery but stock rom. i started the ota update which i assume was 4.4.2 took about 30-40mins to download then not thinking i started the process but failed cause i had a custom recovery. so i used the tool kit and put the stock recovery back on the phone. now i cant get it to show the ota update, just says system up to date. ive tried factory resetting. ive tried changing the date on the phone, all that does it says connecting to dm server. will it not download that update again since it downloaded it once or whats going on? just want the stock 4.4.2 on the phone.

You might try KIES. That's how I upgraded from a rooted stock JB, to stock KitKat (unrooted)
Or follow enewman17's thread in the General section.

my phone is 4.1.1 and i want to update to 4.3 or 4.4, whatever is currently out.
software update doesnt work in the About Device screen. I click it and nothing happens. at all, as if i ne ver touched it.
I tried using this guide http://www.xda-root.com/2014/07/download-install-android-4.4.4-kitkat-update-galaxy-s3-sgh-i747.html
Requires using ODIN and i did try it but ODIN will NOT recognize my phone at all when i plug it via usb cable, no matter what port i use. non-odin wise my pc can always read it.
What am i doing wrong?
I did have a superuser "root" in the past. when the software update didnt work, i uninstalled that and tried the guide again to no avail. do i need to reroot for odin to work, if so, whats the easiest way to root now? is there another option for me to update easily without messing up my phone?
thanks!
You need to be running a completely stock unrooted ATT 4.1.1 ROM with a stock recovery for OTA updates to work.
You're in download mode when connecting to Odin? You've installed the necessary Samsung USB drivers?
This is the recovery flashable stock

I got it some where here on XDA
After this you will be totally stock 4.1.1

The simplest method may be to flash back to completely stock using the ATT 4.1.1 firmware from sammobile.com using Odin 3.07.

will flashing back to stock wipe my stuff?
thanks!
btw, arent i arleady on stock 4.11?
Did your phone take the OTA update?
Yes, flashing back to stock via Odin will wipe out your files which means you should copy the files to your computer or external SD card.
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?

(solved)Thanks for the help, I tried it once more with odin 3.07 and it took awhile (30 long painful minutes) but it passed!!!!!!!!!!
I have my SGH-M919 4.2.2 UVUAMDL rooted. I would like to upgrade it to a new 5.0 ROM, the GPE posted in development. The last time I installed ROMs was in my Nexus 1. Can someone tell me what I need and how to get it installed??? I have Odin 3.09 and TWRP manager. Thanks...
Flash rom with twrp. May need to update your modem
Well, none of that worked. I installed TWRP, that worked. I downloaded the 4.4.4 Hybrid ROM. Did a full wipe and loaded the ROM. That worked but I had no phone connection. I downloaded the NH7 modem, all I got was Odin fail. Downloaded the NK4 modem, all I got was Odin fail. I tried 2 computers, 2 cables, 2 Odin versions, 4 USB ports, everything I could think of and all I got was FAIL. Did a restore back to 4.2.2. I must be missing something here. Need some help.
