Hi mates,
a friend gave me his s4 galaxy mini lte gt-i9195 that is hard bricked.
it was all official, it's no rooted and with official rom 4.4.2 kitkat.
after an official update via ota, the phone start to go on bootloop, i can enter on download mode and recovery mode.
recovery mode is usless cause it says no data found. and when i try to wipe cache and data, it says "e footer is wrong e signature verification failed".
i've try to repair it from keis but nothing's happened.
also odin was useless for me, maybe cause i've usedd it in the wrong way.
someone can help me?
thank you, squall_17
If you use ODIN make sure you uninstall Kies and also disable firewall and antivirus. Don't uninstall drivers do if it asks you to. Also using Odin on anything above Windows 7 you may run into problems
ok thank you for the info, so i have to use odin and set to ap the firmware right?, i don't know the version of this phone, so can i use every firmware that i want?
Most if not all latest i9195 firmware should work. Try just stick to one for your country. And yes AP is where it goes. Good luck
Hi again guys,
for first, i want to say thanks to moderator to have moved my thread in the right section and say sorry for my error.
for second, i've tryed with a ita firmware 'cause i'm italian, odin say pass after the process finished, but nothing is changed, the only information that i could give is that on recovery mod there is this code on the left top: "kot49h.i9195xxucnk1".
I talk with my friend and he told me that he bought the phone online, and maybe from France.
Is there a way to install an ita rom?...or what can I do?
Thank you, Squall_17

[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 !

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.

If you can still get into download mode, then the only option you have to recover back is flashing the same stock firmware that came with the device through odin.
So much for that... links are dead on that firmware page.
Dear XDA
I am facing a very serious problem with my Note 2 (Samsung) since noon today . Literary, I tried to reinstall (Jellybean 4.1.2) Firmware and unfortunately, during the process I had my PC off, which resulted in the following message;
"Firmware encountered an upgrade issue. Please Select Recovery mode in Kies and try again."
I tried Kies later, but It was not connecting , then reading few help blogs, I tried to install in mobile (cwm6-root-note2- with recovery zip inside) with the help of Odin, which has stopped the Firmware encountered message and replaced it with "Samsung Note II" logo and further its says updating package and restarts continually.
I also tried to install again official 4.1.2 Firmware through Odin after (Vol Down+Centre+Power - and Up) but Failed.
I dont know what to do , please help me out from this issue . it is killing me.
Thank you

Pls make sure u have high speed net for 2-3 hrs...
Bcuz kies download the full rom as per ur serial number
Yes do as MAX says , because i suspect you installed 4.3 and now you want to come back to 4.1.2 ,

No No and Honestly I didnt try that ... I just wanted to freshen my mobile by reinstalling official Firmware 4.1.2 .... oh anyways good news is that I recovered my mobile by following the bellow steps ..
1. Downloaded Official Firmware "N7100XXDMB5_N7100OJVDMB1_N7100XXDLK7_HOME.tar"
2. Opened Odin
3. and upload the "N7100XXDMB5_N7100OJVDMB1_N7100XXDLK7_HOME.tar" in PHONE section under PDA (Not PDA) & pressed Start
4. The installation went well but with problems in upgrading applications and continual restarting.
5. again opened Odin and this time I uploaded the official Firmware in PDA and installation went well
6. Booting and registeration also went well.
7. Mobile is back on life
But But
Now my colleague has messed with Note 3 and it also gives the same msg as i had in the beginning "firmware upgrade encountered an issue".
Thank you max621 for your kind help, I will try those for Note3 instead.
Thanks for reading.

can i have your pit file in your SM-T210?
As long as it can enter recovery mode and can be recognized, do a STOCK ROM FLASH (USE THE CLEAN METHOD OF FLASHING). Now attempt to do that flash again..
An image/screenshot of the problem might help us to help you.

Aw, im using smt311, but flashing with odinnis the simole way,, did yiu finish it?
same thing happened to my t217s when Samsung didn't do anything for a legit issue with my tablet during an OTA update and stated that it was rooted (it has been stock since out of the box). after many attempts (didn't have another computer available) i switched to a different usb port and got it flashed just fine.
hi can i ask something it happened i flash samsung j1 then suddenly in 90percent was cut and i cant go back to download mode. and the phone turn black and cant connect to pc. Can Please can you help me?
I had a similar situation with a Galaxy SM-T113 here in Canada. I was hammering away at it for about 4 days with no luck. All i got was the "use Kies" to fix it message. Kies would not detect my phone though. Anyway what i did that worked was in part already tried earlier.. I already tried for example using a different cable and a different port. And i always got a failure with Odin and attempting the stock firmware flash.
So what did i do ?
I unplugged my Gamepad i keep plugged in 24/7 thinking maybe i had too many USB devices hogging USB port bandwidth.. maybe that was it I don't know.. I also uninstalled Kies but this time i said yes to installing the unified driver it asks you about. I also changed to yet another USB port.
It was working fine before hand.
I was trying to flash the firmware simply to reset the thing like i have done on countless other devices over the years.
I am not new to this sort of thing and was rather surprised to see Odin fail.
So who knows maybe my post here will help others.
I feel relieved i did not brick a perfectly good device. LOL
Hello fellow community!
On first place i want to excuse myself for my bad English!!
I have soft bricked T-Mobile (USA) Samsung Galaxy S4 and everything i found in the web DIDN'T help me to recover my phone...
Here is my history for what i did to bring this condition of my phone.
I was on Original T-Mobile 4.4.2 Stock ROM working normal without any issues. But 2 or 3 months ago i was curious about installing on my phone CUSTOM " CYANOGENmod" rom 5.x.x NIGHTY edition. At all installing on that custom ROM was without problems and phone for this 2~3 months works flawlessly "normal"... all this time i updates every day this custom theme and I'm understand this is NIGHTY but at the end i was kind tired from this NOT exactly real and fully functioned replica of custom ROM and get decision to restore my ORIGINAL status of the phone and put latest (4.4.4) Stock ROM. 1st i download 4.4.4 ROM "M919UVUFNK2_M919TMBFNK2_M919UVUFNK2_HOME.tar.md5" for my T-Mobile phone. I put in in DOWNLOAD mode. Connect phone to my computer.. and Start ODIN3 v3.10.6 ( didn't install Samsung drivers because i already have installed them !! ). In AP i put latest ROM... checked was ONLY options Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time ... NO Re-Partition was checked or pit file wasn't given !! Jus i hit the SATRT and receive that !...
everything was fine till the end !!! Flashing stops on try to flash hidden.img.ext4 with error and FAIL all process !!!
I CANT understand where is my problem and what i can do to flash my phone normally?
Please community help me to solve this problem..
1 year ago i have almost the same problem but with the same error "firmware upgrade encountered an issue" and remember here on XDA DEVELOPERS i read the guide how to recovery phone after that but TBH i cant find this guide now with all my searching attempts..
Please for HELP!
and Thank you in Advance for your support!!..
Cheers!
Not 100% sure but you needed to do a factory reset before flashing stock firmware.
You can't flash kitkat over lollipop before doing factory reset because they are two different firmwares.
Try doing a factory reset and flashing again, if it fails pull battery, replace battery and go straight into download mode, connect to pc and flash again with odin.
Sometimes the double flash can be successful.
Good luck.
