[Q] [HELP] Kies Firmware Update Failed

Hello,
I just updated the firmware of my brand new Note 10.1 (N8000) using Kies, which seems to have failed - I can't even turn the device off. I'm a quite experienced computer user, but brand new to Android. Any help or feedback would be very much appreciated (esp. how I can at least turn off the device).
Problem Description:
I have a new Note 10.1 (a German device/I'm in Germany using the Vodafone network, but I guess that shouldn't matter) and installed Kies today. The application identified a new firmware and suggested an update, which I did via USB. Everything appeared to have gone all right - the file got downloaded, transferred to the device, which then showed that it was installing the updates (something like 95 items). No error message. The device then booted, and that's where it seems to be stuck: since then, the device is in an endless loop: Screen is black, a swirling animation comes up, than the Samsung Logo, which stays for like 12 seconds, the screen goes black and it starts from the beginning (in total the loop takes like 15 secondes). Kies cannot connect to the device, and I can't even turn it off, it's just stuck in this endless loop.
Before the update, the device was neither modified nor rooted (I only installed a few apps), and there was no error message during the update (at least none that I saw).
Can anyone help???

Get the firmware file from sammobile and flash with odin. You can find a lot of how to regarding Odin, just do a search and you will find a movie or tutorial.
Here is the fw

The link is from sammobile, not a mirror, so it's safe.
Or you could just return it for an exchange.

To turn off, just press power until it turns off (about 10 seconds)...

Kies failed! Odin PASS and stuck in the logo!, it doesnt boot!

You may need to go into recovery and wipe data/cache partition. This will wipe your internal memory of everything but you will get an operational note...

Galaxy S duos 7582 boot loop and unable to access recovery mode. help guys please

Hi Guys,
I have the Samsung galaxy S duos (7582) and I believe that my phone has soft bricked.
1. At first the phone will switch on only while connected to charger. Even if its switched on it will just show the start page with Samsung logo and phone model only.
2. I have replaced the battery and tried but it shows the same result. Doesn’t charged up but can switch on the phone (only to hert screen with Samsung logo and phone model) with connecting to charger e or PC.
3. The mobile phone is not detected by the PC, but the same has detected by odin. I have passed in odin but unable to access the recovery mode by pressing volume up+home+power buttons.
4. Finally I tried to flash stock rom with Odin and it shows Fail.
Appreciate your help.

Well you were saved. always make sure about the device model before flashing. anyways it's the wrong thread here. its not a big issue and don't need very complex method. just download the stock firmware you want from sammobile and flash it through odin.
