[Q] Firmware Update Failed! - General Questions and Answers

Hello Guys,
I had rooted my SGN before & restored to stock ROM DXKL2. However whenever i tried to update the firware from Software Update, it always says "Failed to update firmware. Try again using PC software (Kies) or Visit Samsung Service Center".
The update download & installation seemed to run well accordingly, but after reboot with "Uploading Media Files" display, the screen simply goes off half way for reboot again, and once SIM PIN gets input, the above display shows up.
May i know how is this happening? Thanks in advance.

[Q] Samsung Kies Problem

Hi Guys,
I followed the process from this link in the XDA forum to get my 3BR mode working.. its working perfectly, I am able to access the recovery mode > which allowed me to apply the voodoo lag fix.
I was quite happy until I plugged my phone back into KIES.. In KIES when I click firmware upgrade my phone immediately fails saying the servers are unavailable or I don't have a internet connection, however I do.
I have tried unistalling and reinstalling to no avail. I would love to get this working before froyo 2.2 comes out so I can upgrade via KIES.
This is my phone about screen
2.6.29 curio carton #Voodoo_lagfix_3.0
Build Number : ECLAIR.DTJG4
Please help me

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.

[Completed] Note 3 SM-N900T - No OS or ROM

I have apparently killed my Note 3 SM-N900T. I was trying to install a new ROM/OS and now all I can do is get into TWRP but it won't let me install any of the zip files. It keeps coming back with an error message saying it failed. I have tried multiple downloads including the DarkLord and the original Samsung, but nothing seems to work. I can't get into Smart Switch even though I have the IMEI number. It's asks for the S/N which is not listed under the battery. Someone please help!!! Here is the list of what I have tried loading:
DarkLord.Note7.Full.Port.V1.0.edit.Ufo71
N900TUVUFOL1_N900TTMBFOL1_TMB-v5.0.1
DarkLord.N5.Beta.N920SKSU2ZPFB_edit.Ufo71
I can also get into Odin, but it only goes the the "downloading now" screen and it's not downloading anything. I spent over an hour on the phone with T-Mobile and Samsung and they were no help at all. I just need to know how I can get any OS/ROM to load.
Thanks for anything you can do to get me out of this jam. I need my phone.

How to get official firmware back on Samsung Galaxy J7 (2016) J710FN ?

I rooted my phone a a few days ago and now I'm trying to get back the official firmware which should be possible.
I flashed TWRP, SuperSU and "no-verity something".
Yesterday I tried to unroot my phone and I saw in a tutorial I only have to press the fully unroot button in SuperSU and it should work.
Well it did, but I still couldn't open Snapchat I thought it was TWRP. I saw that I need root access to uninstall TWRP. I tried to flash SuperSU once again and then my phone just gave up.
It didn't break or something, but when I boot my phone normally it I get an error message, I have a german phone... I can't translate it perfectly, but it says some "integrity check" has failed and I have to factory reset my phone. That's where the problems started.
When I press the "reset" button, it tries to factory reset my phone, but I think it can't read internal memory. When I connect it to my PC it only shows my SD card.
When I go to wipe on TWRP it shows "internal memory 0MB" and I think it has some difficulties reading the internal memory.
My question is, is there a possibility to get the J710FN firmware and all the things back, like the original recovery and all the things.
I tried to flash the original global firmware via ODIN3 v3.12.3 but it fails. My phone says "SW REV CHECK FAIL Device: 4 Binary: 3"
I just want to get back the original firmware without any rooted things so my phone works again.
Oh and I tried to factory reset it in case somebody thinks that's the problem.
Factory resetting doesn't work, because I THINK my phone can't read the internal memory.
I really hope someone can help me.
You can ask me any kind questions for information you need to gather to help me.
Thank you in advance!
I think sw rev check fail (software reverse)mean's that you are trying to flash an out dated firmware (in comparison to the firmware that your phone has on it now)Your phone will block you trying to downgrade your firmware.
Before you do anything you could try the emergency software update and Initialisation in smart switch,I think you need is your phone's serial number(if you still have the box i will be on there)
If all else fail's you could try downloading the most up to date software from sammobile and flash it with the most up to date version of odin you can find
