Problem solved
PROBLEM SOLVED
THANKS TO Dr.KETAN because of him this problem for me has been solved
Below is the step-wise description.
WHAT HAPPENED:-
01.) I was on ROOTED GT-N7000 ICS 4.0.4 PDA-DDLRB CSC(K)-ODDLR4 M-DDLR1
02.) I decided to install Alliance ROM => AllianceROM_JB_N7000XXLSZ-v3 and by mistake and just out of habit instead of using ROM Customizer, I used Mobile ODIN with WIPE (ALL of them) Selected.
03.) Although ODIN didn't came up with any errors and showed installation successful, my phone was stuck on the first screen "SAMSUNG GALAXY NOTE GT-7000" screen.
04.) After waiting for about 30-40 mins. I took out battery, took out memory card and tried to reboot again but no luck.
05.) I tired to recover by re-installing/rolling back to ROM I was on i.e. GT-N7000 ICS 4.0.4 PDA-DDLRB CSC(K)-ODDLR4 M-DDLR1, but ODIN Shows an error saying "PARAMETER INCORRECT" (screen shot attached)
06.) I then tried to install
GT-N7000 ICS 4.0.4 PDA-DDLR9 CSC(K)-ODDLR3 M-DDLR1 but ODIN failed (Screen Shot Attached)
GT-N7000 GB 2.3.6 PDA-DDLB2 CSC(K)-DDLA1 M-
07.) Now my phone is stuck in two modes only i.e.
7.1.) "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again"
7.2.) Download MODE
Dr. KETAN"S HELP (WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE)
01.) Remove .MD5 from extension of ROM and keeping .TAR as extension help me got rid of the "THE PARAMETER IS INCORRECT" error.
02.) Go to Task Manager and close/disable/end process following service
02.1) KIES
02.2)FIREWALL
02.3)ANTI-VIRUS
03.) In ODIN (on PC) Select PDA do not select PHONE (this was my mistake too)
04.) In case you had/have HEIMDALL on your system , go to Device Manager (from Control Panel) and un-install the Generic Device driver
05.) Now try to install the stock ROM you have (it should get installed , at-least this happened in my case.)
WHAT IS TOTALLY USELESS ?
01.) KIES
02.) You PANICKING and FREAKING OUT
WHAT I CAN'T DO:-
01.)Visiting Samsung shop/service station

[Q] Android stuck Firmware update error

I went to flash a modded firmware to this phone and it it failed. I was using oden3 1.7 and now it is stuck at the screen where it says "Firmware ugrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again", but i tried getting the phone by itself in recovery or download mode and it keeps going to the same screen. THen i tried Kies and it would not recognize the phone. any help would be great

This has been covered numerous times. Read the stickies in the Dev forum.
sent from outer space.

I believe that screen is another forum of download mode.

[Completed] I've caused a huge problem. Soft Bricked.

I have a Samsung Galaxy Grand 2 (SM-G7102). I tried to root it. Downloaded the root package from a website (odin and cf autoroot). Then turned USB Debugging On and Put Device on Download mode ( hold power,home,volume down to begin and then volume up to Activate Download Mode, Then I Selected CF Autoroot.rar in PDA and Flashed it... Moments Later.. It Showed "FAIL" on Odin and Everything Stopped. So i restarted the device and now it says "Issues ocured while upgrading device software,please run emergency recovery using kies" when i try that it asks for a code. But i didnt do that so im not supposed to have code. Help me with a Simple Solution Please. Quickly. Thank You.

Hmm ... are you sure about the "CF Autoroot.rar" file?
It has to be a "tar" (or "tar.md5") file.
As long as you can boot into download mode again, no worry, you can fix it.
Check this thread: [CF-ROOT][SM-G7102][4.3] Root Galaxy Grand 2.
If you have questions about flashing CF-Autoroot, please register on xda (it's free), and post in the corresponding Q&A thread.
Alternatively, you can follow this guide for another rooting method: [GUIDE][HOW-TO]Easily root Galaxy grand 2 SM-G7102, but flashing CF-AutoRoot is a little bit easier IMO.

Bricked my mom's Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 (GT-P3100). Can't make it work. HELP PLEASE D:

Last night my mom asked me if I could format her tablet, because it was too slow (Even for that device), and had a lot of crap on it.
So... I took a look at it and started to google about the tablet. Turns out it hadn't been upgraded to the latest firmware; it was on Android 4.1.2, and as it says here: "sammobile.com/tag/gt-p3100/" the latest available firmware is 4.2.2 .
Thus I tried to update it via software update on the device, but it turned out it wasn't able to update because the tablet has been modified. Then I remembered that a long time ago I tried to root it without much success, but didn't try again because I got bored.
Then I downloaded the 4.2.2 firmware UK version (P3110XXDMH1_P3110OXADMH1_BTU), and flashed it via Odin. Sadly it went wrong and a "Failed!" sign appeared. I can't remember what step failed, but it booted anyways, but this time my PC recognized the device as a "GT-P3110". I thought that maybe it was because the UK firmware was a Vodafone version, so I downloaded the Russian brandless version (P3100XWDMK1_P3100SERDMK2_SER) and flashed; it failed again, but this time the tablet didn't turn on normally.
I can't boot it neither normally, recovery or Download mode, it shows only a message that says "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in kies & try again", which as I read on other android sites and this forum, it's a soft brick message.
Then I tried to do as it said, installed Kies and tried to fix what I've done, but when I enter the device data (Model and "S/N") it shows a message saying that the model info cannot be verified and that the device initialization can't continue.

So... This is as much info as I can remember about what could've gone wrong, please help me, if I can't fix it, mom will continue to be a liiiiittle too much angry
Beforehand thank you very much.
PS: I had to write wrong the links because I created this account just because I had this problem, so I can't post links.

Woah this happen to me once, but i try to flash it again and its work, this happen when i chose the wrong firmware zip, but it work when i instal the right one, maybe u flash wrong firmware bro, try flash the right rom bro

this message is like download mode, you can connect to pc and flash any firmware via odin

Yes, as said you can go in Download Mode and reflash another good ROM ! Make sure the .tar.md5 is not corrupted.
