My tab 2 wont upgrade to the latest firmware (which fixes the powering off issue). I have tried both ota and kies. Both will seemingly download the firmware but wont install. Ota gives me a cant upgrade error and kies downloads, decrypts, decompresses and then nothing. Samsung has no clue how to get upgrade installed. How do I fix this problem?

Firmware Update
I have been having the same issue and can tell you that even with a factory reset that it doesn't help either. At this time I don't want to root mine. Any ideas without root?

Guys, flashing stock ROM using Odin does NOT root the device, and does NOT require root to do it.

i could be wrong but dont you have to only download the 4.3 update from sammobile.com (correct phone for your phone/country specifically), get the latest version of odin and flash it from there? you dont need root right? just download mode.

Hello guys!
I like cm roms very much,but I can't flash any cm 11 rom because my phone is from china, Samsung have update your phone to 4.2.2,but not the devices in china. As you know,cm 11 won't work on 4.1.2. I fell very very sad about this:crying:.
I try to flash a different country Firmware(4.2.2) through odin3. but it did't work.I know your phone can do this.....:crying: I just want to know why? Is it because my phone's bootloader is locked?
Many friends of mine are also want to flash cm 11....but we can only use cm10.1......:crying:
Baseband:
I9105pzcami1
Andriod vertion:
4.1.2
PLZZ help me and my friends....
(PS:sorry for my bad English)
Have you tried flash cm 11 directly from 4.1 bootloader??,may it works most dev write on their op to use 4.2 bootloader, but none tried and tell us may it works too with 4.1bootloader
Edit#
Or you mayvtry this cm10.1 build from @LuK1337 which stabler and more fluid, say thanks to him
https://mega.co.nz/#!w4dUCDDD!NhEHBT9Uo8ZPAmkPVNOamzSCmaTf4sqQWzBpnt1K0uI

You should only flash "PDA" and not have the "Re-partition" option ticked. For flashing official firmware, follow the guide here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2428753
Also, flashing Note2 firmware on an S2 Plus is probably not a very good idea.

oh ,I‘m so sorry,I think my poor English makes you misunderstood,the screenshot isn't of mine...I mean my case is just similar to the picture,I'm sure I flashed a s2vep rom..I tried just flash PDA too...I think it is because my phone's bootloader is locked that what makes the failure..:crying:
I have tried many many methods according to the internet....someone said that I should use mobile odin pro app,but this app won't work in s2vep...I almost feel desperate about this ,I think it's time to buy a new phone...
PS:I can successfully flash an offical 4.1.2 rom...
It's impossible...download 4.2 official stock firmware...use the link given by AmoledIsBetter, follow steps, make sure u use the right firmware for ur phone (P version or no P version), and if something goes wrong come here with screenshots from ODIN. If all its OK u can flash CM11 easy...
Never heard of a locked bootloader on a S2 Plus.
Silly question maybe, but are you using the correct Samsung USB drivers for your PC? Did you flash CM 10.1 from the same PC previously?
Which 4.2.2 file are you trying to flash? I know that many have flashed I9105PXXUBNG1 from Germany.
Is your device genuine Samsung?
I think you are still factory locked. (Still locked to a carrier)
Something I read in a thread in past couple of days is that if it's a Chinese handset they can have their own drivers, so search for them, rest of the world drivers may only part work.

I found my Galaxy Tab II after I lost it for a year. The firmware version is something like 3.3 I believe. I tried following a guide to root it, and downloaded Odin and 'P3100_CWM_RECOVERY-6.0.2.7_SUPERSU-0.99_BUSYBOX-1.20.2.tar' but Odin says it failed to root my tablet..
Do I need to upgrade my firmware first? Or are the links outdated? I just want to flash a very slim rom so I can play clash of clans without the lagginess of 2 year old hardware.
Go to @Android-Andi's recovery thread and get the latest twrp recovery Odin flashable tar file. Use the PDA option when you flash it in Odin.

Turn the tablet on and go to settings and then about tablet (it could also say about device). It should be in a blank that days something along the lines of model number or model name.

Your tablet is not a P31** so there are no ROMs for it. You won't be able to upgrade to 4.4.*

Hello, today i've tried to root a Galaxy A7 (Android version 4.4.4) from a website which had a file for A700FD to root on odin
But it failed on <ID:0/004> cache.img.ext4, probably because this device is A700FQ, not A700FD. So now i can just enter the download mode, it says Firmware upgrade encountered an issue when i try to turn the phone on and i can't find a stock rom... What can i do?

Quick troubleshooting, some users reported to solve that error by flashing trough custom recovery.
Also, have you tried Kies?

Yes, I have tried that ROM & its Odin flashable
Can i flash this on the SM-S550TL?
Has anyone tried this on the SM-G550T1 model?
Will someone reupload the file for a better download link? Sammobile takes way to long
Really, the SM-G550T1/2 really needs Nougat at this point since it is only limited to the India model... I really like the new UI elements. Sad.
Or if someone is really good enough to make a Android Oreo Go edition custom ROM (since it really helps on storage) or a Lineage OS custom ROM. I wish i can make one but I'm not good at making ROM's.:crying:
Edit: I was thinking of installing that same rom OP described. Will it work for my T1? Someone needs to test this before i can proceed. Problem is i don't know if it will brick my phone because it was made for Indian devices running that version.
The current device i have is as follows:
Galaxy On5 SM-G550T1 (T-Mobile)
Currently on 6.0.1
Rooted with Magisk
OEM Unlock set to ON
TWRP
I dont know also, but do i need to have my phone network "unlocked" to switch official samsung roms? I prefer sticking to T-Mobile...
Edit #2: Tried installing that firmware file, it wont let me because of a locked bootloader. I used Odin (latest) but all i get is a "SECURE CHECK FAIL: (BOOTLOADER)" error.
^tl;dr, it wont install on a US variant.
