Hey guys, I'm trying to do the maintenence update for the phone on the stock rom, no root, and it is showing the android guy and says downloading, and there is a blue progress bar, but its stuck at 32% according to kies mini. its been like this for over an hour and no one from samsung or tmobile has been able to help me. any ideas on what to do?
Why did you use kies?
just got the phone a week ago through warrenty exchange, wanted to do the update to kd1 from kb5, which was currently on my phone
I'd Odin or Heimdall it.
kies mini
I used Kies Mini a few weeks ago b/c i hadn't done root or any mods yet too....but it went flawlessly the first time thru. It only took maybe 10 minutes?
Anyone know what would happen if he "just pulled the battery/plug"?
Wouldn't the stock recovery will let him go back to stock without odin?
Yea like the other guy said i'd odin it with the .tar file, then use kies to do the firmware update.

I have a Galaxy 7.7 6810 (originally purchased from Hong Kong) and a few weeks ago, I tried to go from ICS 4.0.3 to Jellybean using OTA. Unfortunately, I had forgotten that I was rooted and the OTA would not install. I then tried using Odin to flash Bodivas 4.1.2 and totally screwed up. Odin would not complete the installation - stuck somewhere in the process and I couldn't figure out how to safely get out. Soft brick! I finally (several days later) managed to get back to stock 3.2 using Odin 3 version 1.85. I ended up with build "HTJ85B P6810XXLB4, which seems to work just fine, but now I would like to get back up to JB. I was hoping that I could do OTA, as I'm not rooted right now, but I can't get past the registration page from Samsung. It asks for my country and by now I've tried many of the countries on the list and always get the message "Registration failed." The problem must be due to my build version.
Any suggestions for what I need to do in order to get Samsung to recognize my 6810 so that I can get the OTA update? I'm reluctant to try Odin again because of what happened last time, although I guess I can root and then try Mobile Odin this time around.
Sorry this is so long.
Hi folks,
I've seen other threads where people report similar but perhaps not quite the same issue I am having with my GT-N8010. For context, I installed 4.4.2 a while ago (February?). This was one of the Omni nightlies, omni-4.4.2-20140210. In preparation for this I had installed twrp-2.6.3.1-n8000. All was well and I much enjoyed kitkat until a few weeks came back from a trip and noticed the device had run out of juice. Connected it to the charger and then...
Symptoms:
* Seems to be stuck displaying the Samsung logo
* Download mode works
* When trying to enter recovery (Power+VOL_UP) it briefly shows the Team Win screen logo and then just reboots
Things I've tried:
* Reinstall twrp, using Odin and download mode; Odin succeeds, the device reboots, same symptoms as before
* Install some other recovery (HighOnAndroidv1CWMRecoveryGTN8000), same result; it is as though NOTHING gets flashed???
* Install stock (4.0.4 or 4.1.2, I don't remember) Samsung ROM; Odin succeeds (it takes a few minutes), device reboots but HECK I'm going insane NOTHING has changed, symptoms as before
Please please can one of you ninja dudes help me out as this is such a precious tablet and hopefully not just a brick now .
Among the things I haven't tried, but heard can do wonders, is to re-partition. So if you happen to have a PIT file from your N8010 then would you mind sharing it through a PM please.
Also am currently downloading the "official" 4.4.2 release for the N8000. I've heard this is NOT for the N8010 but as a last resort, I might flash it??
Many thanks in advance for all the help!

There is a n8010 release of 4.4.2 for your Device. but Do NOT Flash the n8000 rom on it..
I think you should odin the 8010 rom from Sam mobile and you will be ok . If not browse the forum and find a pit file for that device.. also some have reported Issues flashing with latest odin. try i think verson 2.9 ?

Thanks, have just flashed the 8010 4.4.2 stock fw. Symptoms remain. I'd be very grateful for a PIT file as I've waded through the other threads and not too sure about the links to PIT files there. PM, anyone, please please .
I've got the N8010 PIT file from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2363703
Sadly, this didn't change a thing. I'm still stuck at the Samsung logo, and still cannot enter recovery mode which still briefly shows the TeamWin logo and then reboots.
This N8010 is just over a year old. Bought in Germany, I wonder whether Samsung would repair under warranty. I guess they won't as it's been fiddled with. I've heard about JTAG repairs but something tells me this isn't going to help as I have a feeling that I just can't flash the darn thing. Eeek, faulty flash memory??

Sadly not. Others have reported that having gone with one of the Omni 4.4.2 builds they cannot get the official 4.4.2 release from Samsung installed, at least not with desktop Odin. They do succeed with mobile Odin but yeah, that's not an option here as I don't get past the Samsung logo and no recovery. This is really frustrating.....

Err well I ended up bringing the tablet to a Samsung service store where it was repaired under warranty, free of charge. Dunno what they did to it but it works and has the latest 4.4.2 firmware on it. Glad I have it back.
I have exactly same problem with N8005!... Can't reinstall twrp or any other recovery with Odin. ( "failed")... Can't enter twrp... Can't boot... I guess my tablet decided to suicide.
hey guys ive got a problem with odin.
im not new to odin and ive used it to flash my note 3 and my nephews note 4 etc
im trying to flash a stock rom onto my nephews tab2 10.1 wifi as they've most definitely got a virus/malware. stuff gets installed all own its own, ads all over the place, random launchers, ads in the form of present/gift boxs on the homescreen etc..
so ive got the right firmware, and the right drivers. although device manager shows it as a samsung usb modem for some reason???? odin jst cant connect to the tab and fails. ive tried multiple versions of it and now im out of ideas. ive done a factory reset in stock recvery but that doesnt help as all the above issues return very quickly.
i am now officially out of ideas. any help would be very much appreciated
thanks
Edit : I'm running Windows 8.1 64
forgot image
anyone?
no one??

Greetings.
I didn't post in very long time on this forum,since I could handle most of the problems on my own,now I need some andvanced tips and advices,so I'm reporting in.
I bough myself a Samsung Galaxy S4 Black Edition last year here in Bosnia and Hercegovina.Beautiful phone,never got a scratch on it,It had Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean out of the box but all of the features from basic S4 except one,it couldn't update firmware to Lolipop 5.0.1.
That used to bother me,since I had much older devices that supported JB and this phone was just special,enough that I couldn't let it be my daily driver having unused potential,so i threw myself at work(which will later prove a very bad decision).
I checked for OTA updates in the settings and that option would litteraly do nothing,providing no info,or searching for new updates.
Smash that Build number,got into developer mode,toggle USB debugging,Install Kies on PC,run it as Admin,download latest drivers,connect the device,Firmware update asks for IMEI and s/n,type them in,says to check my s/n and IMEI,do that few times under different compatibility options,still the same.
I thought it must be something bad with data/catche so i reset to recovery mode and wipe them out,setup the phone,enter the OTA update for second time,it shows me "Your device have been modified, Software updates are not available", check device status and it states "Samsung",after several attempts it sometime said "Modified" sometimes "Samsung",Kies didn't recognise the device through all this process.
I was already lost here,but I thought,hell Kies isn't working,neather is OTA,i could flash using Odin,that might do the trick.
Went to Sammobile,downloaded latest drivers and Odin,found one Firmware that I though was compatible.,unbloked them in properties and set to rin as Admin.
Uninstalled Kies and checked for leftover drivers again,and it was all clear to go,ran odin,mounted firmware,set device in download mode and started flashing but Odin poped out "complete(write) operation fail" error.
Didn't want to try fixing it,went straight back to SM and downloaded two other firmwares,one said "complete(write) operation fail",and the other "Re-Partition operation failed",so I thought Odin was bad,since I checked on two PC's with several USB ports.
Download two more versions of Odin and find a stock s4 PIT file here somewhere for repartrition error.
Extracted everything,unblocked and ran with privilegies,same thing on both Odin versions,except that only Odin 3.07 could flash the pit file alone with no problems it passed.
Next time i ran download mode i tried to flash the firmware write fail came up again,extracted recovery and flashed it alone,worked like a charm,so I tried flashing once again,it proceedes a little further with same write error.
Reset the phone to wipe data and catche and it goes into "Firmware Upgrade Encountered An Issue Error",Install kies,it still doesn't recognise the phone.
Out of option right now I go for search of alternative recovery software,and I found the famous "Dr.Fone" (how stupid I was to not read all those,"if it wasn't for this software my phone would die" comments)
Installed it,ran recovery my phone shuts down and displays "set warranty bit: kernel message",from this point nothing works except recovery mode,so I install CWM recovery and flash a Custom ROM,now only this option that sets my phone in working order and I want to recover it's Firmware back,Anyone that could help me with this issue,or had it solved before?
Atleast give it a try.
this amount of pain can't be titled

Day#4 Fail compilation
I see that this gets no response,but I'll continue this thread just in case I fix this and somebody else gets into same problem themselves.
I mentioned before that I somehow flashed custom ROM over CWM and that helped my phone boot into working state after bootloop error caused by greatest Android software there is on the internet,the legendary "Dr.Fone"
The Custom rom used was "[OFFICIAL][i9500][5.1.x] CyanogenMod 12.1 for Samsung Galaxy S4 [NIGHTLY]" From xda user: Alberto96 (thank you friend).
After several other failed attempts of implementing Stock firmware on this bricked device over the PC,I got to the point where I think that it's literally imposible to make it work since I tried so many ways and patterns of installation with no difference in the outcome results whatsoever.
I took a moment to rethink my strat over this and googled other ways of flashing that firmware without using PC.
Found 2 possible solutions that I'm trying to make use of,first is Odin Mobile and the Other is FlashFire.
Since both require rooted devices,finding way to root bricked S4 wasn't a very pleasant experiance,since flashing SuperSU through CWM recovery didn't work,Odin managed to flash me nice Autoroot from Chainfire over the custom ROM I installed before,I found a problem even there since the I9505 autoroot wouldn't work,the custom firware had changed the phone model to I9507 that I downloaded the Autoroot for,was a confusing issue,but I managed to root it anyways.
Page I used for this purpose was Chainfire Autoroot database(sorry if I'm violating forum rules but I think this could be left here without further discussion about it).
After rebooting the device I downloaded Rootcheck software along with SuperSU and FlashFire which confirmed that it's fully unlocked/rooted.
Now I'm recharging my phone so I can later tonight go ahead and transfer firmware to it's SD card and try to flash it once again with FlashFire,last option I'm thinking of as of now if this wouldn't have any progress is to download Odin mobile and try another flash,I'm running out of ideas on this one.
Sorry for the long posts,but these get no respose so who cares.
