I just got a SGS2 Skyrocket and was using odin. It didn't make any progress for 3 hours so I unplugged (I know not to but I didn't know an alternative either). Anyway, I am now getting the "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again." Error message. I read in another thread that I should re-enter Odin to try to fix it, but I can no longer get into download mode. What's the next step here? I know this topic has been discussed, but I really want to make sure I do this right.
When you see that "error" screen you should be in download mode. If not do this. Pull battery and reinsert. Hold the up /down volume and plug in USB. Should kick you into download mode.

I had the same issue.. your in download mode.. try pushing your rom of choice through odin again, but use a different usb port. Your basically still in download mode.

Yup, despite the error message you're seeing you should still be able to flash the stock .tar. The phone won't look like it's doing anything--you'll still see the error message--but if Odin sees it you should be fine.
I had this happen to me too and it worked fine.
Well I am at the step where you insert the TAR file for the PDA slot on odin and I can only get this far:
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)

<ID:0/003> recovery.img
<ID:0/003> system.img.ext4
I used the i727 TAR instead of the i727R TAR file. That's the only thing I can imagine changing to make this work.
Am I suppose to be choosing a ROM at this point as well? Where do I get a pit file if I need one?
Here is process.

Same Problem
Hey im new at this and i'm having the same problem. my issue is i have the error message and did what you guys said and reattempted Odin. it recognizes the phone and says
<ID:0/004>Complete(Write) operation failed.
and above the yellow box in Odin is a red box that says Fail!
i have tried this a few times and this is the only result i get.
i think i might have done something wrong with the tar file, i downloaded the correct one and i used 7-Zip to convert the rar to tar and odin now recognizes the file but idk if i was supposed to do that. Any help is greatly appreciated!
sorry for being an idiot i figured out what i did wrong
Yes you must unzip the. 7z file the tar is inside. Unzip it with 7zip then run odin and select the unzips tar file in the pda section of odin
Please help me i have restarted my tab GT-N800) and the samsung sign kept rotaing.
I Factory restarted it but no good .
Then i put it in download mode and tried to flash it but it is stuck in SetupConnection

1. At the downloading screen, plug your phone into your computer
2. Run Odin (I used Odin3 v3.09)
3. Uncheck auto reboot and F. Reset Time
4. Select PIT and load a .pit file ( Search forum for right PIT file)
5. Click Start
It will fail and your Message box will look like this

<ID:0/005> Re-Partition operation failed.
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
<ID:0/005> Removed!!
6. Now uplug your phone from the computer and reboot.
The only explanation I can come up with is that the partition file info gets corrupted or lost and doing this either rewrites the partition info file or tells the system where to look for it. I could be wrong but it is the only thing that works for me.
Wish you luck! Peter :fingers-crossed:
This should be a sticky, thanks my tablet is working again. Thank you Tanker32

Hi All,
I was using the SM-N915A as normal...then i left it idle for a while and came back saw it kept resetting itself. I tried clear cache partition already didnt' work. It keeps looping on startup after the samsung logo. It got worst as time went on, it wont even load into recovery anymore, it just loads with the android icon saying it's updating then freezes and restarts....I read that I can manual recover using Odin. I used odin and a stock rom to fix it, but the rom failed now i am bricked. Please help.

Thanks, I managed to use the pit file and it got pass the brick page.
However, now the system goes into the Samsung Galaxy Note Edge loading screen and just stays there for a very long time and then restarts itself again....I pulled the battery out to manual shutdown (power button will not shut it down) and tried to go into recovery mode, it says loading recovery, but ends up restarting back to the Samsung loading screen indefinitely again. I would assume that's because the rom is dead at this point, and I would need to go to dl mode and flash a new stock rom back in ? What is my next step ?

You know what, try to clean power button. It may sticks. Pull battery and put small drop of rubbing alcohol. Then press couple times ( with out battery). Let dry for 10 min( you may use hair dryer on low power) . Put battery back and let us know.

can't you use samsung kies?
Hi to all. I was trying to recover some files with DrFone when it tried to root my phone. The rooting process failed and the phone bricked. If I try to power it on, it appears the writing "firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again"
Obviously kies can't connect to the phone.
If I press pwr+vol_dn+home and then select "volume up" the phone goes in download mode but doesn't accept the reset of drfone, the download process freeze at half...
What can I do?
Thanks in advance!

any help would be appreciated
tnx
Install this ROM;
https://docs.google.com/uc?id=0B3U72O5ZZ8z-STJiWWJmR2hPM1U&export=download
(Don't forget to select PIT file!)
After install this, install whatever ROM you want from Odin.
Or.. just flash any kernel or just system.img(through odin) . It will get rid of the error after having a successful flash.
I used CF Auto root to root my device with Odin 3.10.6. Afterwards my device would just boot to the logo and stop their. I have tried everything I could find online. I tried stock firmware with all versions of Odin I could get my hands on, I tried flashing a custom ROM with Odin, I tried Keis and Smart but no luck there either. I also went in store to AT&T and they could do nothing either except offer me a new phone for 800 bucks lol. I have followed many online tutorials also from various websites.
My phone is SM G925A. I need answers badly. Any help is much appreciated.
Odin spits this out at me every try or else it gets stuck on a segment and never continues the flash:
