hy
First of all i want to say two things:
1. This thread was opened after reading 179 similar threads and browsed all 260 pages of q&a answers
on the galaxy tab 2 and other several threads on Samsung products with similar symptoms.
2. Thank you in advance to however is able to resolve this issues, not only for me, but for several others.
the section is full of similar problems with no answer whatsoever.
The story:
My Samsung p5110 WiFi only (stock firmware), started to restart randomly and at one point froze at the Samsung logo.
I was able to enter in download mode, and with odin i "managed" to load the firmware for p5100.
And that was the mistake. at restart started to display: “Firmware upgrade encountered an issue.
Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again“. But kies does not connect and recognize the device at all.
so out of the question to salvage the device in that mode.
Odin still recognizes the device, so i was able to load several stock firmwares:
P5110XXBLH4_P5110OXXBLH3_HOME.tar.md5
P5110XWALD4_P5110OXXALD5_HOME.tar.md5
P5110XXDNB1_P5110COADNB1_HOME.tar.md5
everything goes ok, it says pass, but there is no restarting, the screen goes black. when i turn it on
the same thing: "firmware upgrade.....
Tried to load CWM and TWRP recovery in order to delete everything in the device, installed ok but
no effect, it is not launching, only: "firmware upgrade....
I want to point out that USB mode was to enabled do to the fact that the tablet broke so it was not
planned, i have uninstalled kies and installed the samsung and omap drivers now, same results, and tried
all the usb ports.
I am running out of ideas and other suggestion i haven't found on this site up until now, so any
constructive help and comments will be welcomed by me and more than likely by the others in
my situation.
use odin in this way

well i had the same problem with my GT-P3113
there is one way i know to solve this which worked for me.
1. flash TWRP/CWM
a)first make sure that you find the rooted md5 firmware for your device.
[this is my 5th post so i cannot add links. so you can always search in xda for other threads regarding your device's rooted md5 so that you can flash using odin.]
b)now flash the rooted md5 using odin
c) flash TWRP/CWM Using odin(i would prefer CWM)
d)then downlaod a custom rom for your device and place it in your sd card.
e)flash it using your recovery
f)now try rebooting and you should go into the new rom
g)now check usb debugging in the settings>about device>touch on build number 7 times>you will see developer options>check usb debugging.
h)now try flashing the original stock firmware using odin
CONGRATS YOU HAVE SOLVED THE PROBLEM OF YOUR DEVICE
NOTE:if you still have any problem with booting or if you are stuck in the boot logo try going to recovery and do a factory reset.
if still you have any questions let me know.
Similar problem but odin doesn't recognise device
Hello guys. I have big issue with this. I tried also flashing from sd new cwm since its factory but it start process and than say signature verification failed. Trying also different roms but no success. I can not do basically anything. Even for sdk tool computer must recognise device (I do have drivers and they work with all other devices ) and still it doesn't recognise. I am out of options. Please help?

Crap!!! I hope someone can help me. I was trying to upgrade my son's tablet using odin and a stock 4.04 rom from here :Samsung P5100 / P5110 / P5113 Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 Complete Stock Firmware. The first one for the P5113.
Anyway, everything seemed to be going okay following the directions and then a failed came up in the first box in odin was red. I repeated it and it appeared to be stuck. The tablet was in download mode and the blue line had only progressed about a quarter inch. I heard the usb disconnect and reconnect sound and I tried to initiate it through odin again but the tablet wasn't responding. I stupidly on plugged the tablet and tried to power it down. Now I can't do anything. Can't get into recovery or download mode. The tablet is stuck on the screen and has this message with a picture of a tablet then a yellow triangle and a computer. Here is the message: Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again. Kies won't recognize the tablet and when I click on emergency firmare recovery it just asks for PC code. I am stumped. I am not familiar with Samsung at all. Also, the message on the screen won't disappear. If I hold down power it won't turn off, the screen will go black and then the message will come right back so I'm afraid the battery will be dead soon and then I will be totally out of luck.
The tablet is a wifi only P5113 Tab 2 10.1.

Not your device but its should be similar. Hope it works for you.
No luck so far, is there no way to get past this screen?
Not that I know of to be honest, You need to get into download/recovery .... Hopefully someone else more knowledgeable will come up with something !
How old is the tab ?
EDIT :
Will ODIN connect ... When you get that firmware error screen ?

No nothing, windows does recognize it and will install the driver. But Odin doesn't show anything happening and Kies just shows connecting. When you select emergency recovery in Kies it will stop trying to connect and bring up a dialog box asking for a recovery code. Apparently if the failure would have happened during a legit upgrade using Kies it would have generated an error code for recovery. Is there no way to repair this? Thought Samsung devices were suppose to be so easy to customize? Please help my son is pretty pissed.

Update!!!
I was able to get odin to connect to tablet and I got cwm recovery installed so it no longer boots to the failed firmware screen and I can get into recovery. My question is which firmware do I install?? The tablet is a Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 P5113 wifi only. Is the P5113UEBLH3 firmware the correct one? It says it was provided by Cellular South which confuses me since the tablet is wifi only.
Update 2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Success!!! Got into download mode and was able to load the stock 4.04 firmware and life is good again. Thanks to all that helped.
One thing. Always update your table with OTA or Kies. ODIN breaks the warrantie

I bricked my device from Odin while trying to revert from a CM10.1 nightly to stock JB. Device picked up in Odin, but would not flash... unless I reboot the device after I clicked start in Odin. Dunno why, but it loaded stock firmware on the error screen... don' ask me how...
I have experienced this. Run ODIN, then connect your devices to the computer. When ODIN detect it, unplug and then replug your device. When ODIN back detect it then flash.
Recent versions of Odin work the other way around. First plug then open. Older like <1.87, first you open the program then you plug device. Glad it got solved.

I have also hit this screen several times while playing with roms, this is a fairly common example of "softbrick". Fortunately for me, Odin had no problems connecting, and then simply flashed an oem rom. I have not been able to hard brick this thing, which is a huge surprise considering all the flashing I've done. Frankly I'm surprised it hasn't blown up like an iraqi IED yet lol!
This is a good thing! It means that Samsung built in a good failsafe. It just means you hosed your rom install all the way down to the bootloader. Easy to recover from
Glad ya learned to fix it!
Big problems with my Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1

Hi, my problem is identical. I have a samsung galaxy tab 2 10.1 and after a failed update with Odin the message was:Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again. I try again with Odin and nothing. I used Kies, and nothing. Then i saw a reference to the md5 philz_touch_5.03.7-p5110.tar.md5 and i use it with Odin. Sucess but the message was RESET. Everithing disappeared from screen except the battery logo. The tablet is always on and with that image. The volume buttons and power don't work and it is not detected.
I'm affraid the thing is bad.
Can you help? Thank you.

Hey cruise, would you happen to still have the file you used on your son's box? The only page I can find won't let me in.
Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try agai
Hi. I got the problem where I cant use my tab, because it just shows this message: Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again.
It happened because I tried rooting my tab in Odin. At first it failed, I tried it a second time and it kind of lagged.. so being my stupid self I disconnected the tab and since then I have this problem.
I tried looking for some resolutions, but half of them either uses Odin:
1. which I really dont know how to use
2. which considers the tab being in download mode. My tab cant even do that.. when I hold the Power+home+volume down buttons, the screen goes black and then the same message comes back.
The second half of resolutions is with Kies. I didnt know about Kies earlier, so it doesnt have my tab details stored there.
I dont know if Kies has to have your tab stored to use the 'Firmware Upgrade and Initialisation' option, but I tried in anyway. When I write in my model, which is SM-T230NU, it shows that the model information I entered cannot be verified.
When I charged my tab a bit and connected to my computer, Kies isnt able to find it. It finds that something is connected, because it shows that it's connecting, but then it stops, then connects, and the same over and over.
Anyways, I have a Samsung galaxy Tab 4 7.0, model SM-T230NU, and I really want to try and repair it on my own before I give it to service.
Please dont hate on my stupidity, because I'm not really into technology..
Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. You're are going to have to flash the stock firmware in Odin. Go to sammobile.com for the firmware and see this on how to use Odin,http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1372414. If you can't get into download mode that's going to be a big problem. You can look for help by posting here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/tab-4/help

I searched most of the web for a week now, trying to figure out how to fix my Tablet on this nightmare.
so before it all began, i left my Tablet charging in midnight, left it in stand-by mode for 12 hours (yes i slept for 12 hours). when i woke up, it was on shutdown mode. i don't know why, i tried opening it, but it was stuck on Samsung Logo for nearly 2 mins. then i tried re-restart it again, and then i was stuck on "Samsung Galaxy tab 2 7.0". I can charge my Tab and it only has 80% battery for some reason. and so i asked someone from Yahoo Ask about how to fix this problem, i couldn't go to Recovery mode or start my tab, but everytime i try, it'll only get stuck at "Samsung Galaxy tab 2 7.0". Now, this guy said i should download a custom os or firmware or smth. (Forgot). and then i downloaded Odin, and a Firmware. for my GT-P3100.
I know i made a mistake, since i wanted to already fix my problem, i went to try anything i didn't actually know of. Now i have a problem, I didn't listen to "Don't turn off target" thing, and i shutdown my tab in the middle of using Odin, since most of the tries failed, Now i got the Firmware upgrade encountered an Issue.
I Tried using Samsung Kies to fix the issue, but it'll only get stuck on Connecting... i tried reinstalling the Drivers but nothing happened, then i uninstalled Kies. and then i download firmwares that might help me with my problem. but most of them failed.
i have 2 Firmware Stock for GT-P3100 Philippines. I really want to get my tab fixed already without a technician repairing it for me. so can you guys help?
I'm about to Download and try Jellybean Firmware, I Don't know anything about this problem nor these firmware. since i couldn't connect to Kies, i only tried fixing it on Odin.
Most of the Firmwares i tried failed. and every time i want to find some thread with the same problem as mine, i couldn't find anything.
i tried everything and it still wont work.

Can someone help me, because I have a tab same isseu
I have GT-P3100 SamsungTab 2 (7''). Due to some reason its unable to boot normal and stuck at bootup logo.I try open recovery mode but fail.
I open download mode and try update firmware by ODIN3. But fail as USB and set disconnected in middle. After that phone unable to boot in download or recovery mode and always shows "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in kies & try again."
I tried again with ODIN but unable to flash firmware. Tried CWM & firmware MD5 files but all fail. On ODIN3 (3.07) it shows success in tool but actually no impact on set. When try with ODIN3 (1.85) it saying fail to write NAND.
Is any way i can correct my Tablet?
Any suggestion will be welcomed.
Thanks in advance

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.

imgur.com/OdZhT6C
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.
So I try to to use my tablet when this started. Now I read the fourm and alot of similar issue to mine, almost everyones note is recognized by odin. However mine is not even being recognized. It only makes the sound to charging noise that's it.
Only able to go into download mode.
Help anyone ?
Hi koc88158
Got a similar problem as yours around last week, had also tried searching the forum for answer, this was what i done from experience. But im just a noobie.
1. First time it happened, i reflash Stock recovery from Odin, and for some reason it got through, all files not deleted, root still there. Probably some bug happened.
2. 2nd time happened, i need to reflash stock recovery and Stock Firmware/ROm from Odin. Kinda hard to find a download link for a Stock ROM, i had try all link from threads here that had died. Try sammobile.com or samsung-updates.com . I got it from there here is for 8013
http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-N8013
3.3rd time happening, well i got a busted mother board, i can still access the custom recovery and Odin. But all above steps had failed because the MoBo is gone. Take it to samsung for a replacement and while there i ask to change the battery as well just in case. And you can ask to flash a stock firmware, but dont go straight away to 4.4.2 KitKat in case you want to do it yourself or Flashing a Custom Rom
Hope it helps. Good luck
Download PROPER DRIVERS. Usually they are downloaded by kies but sometimes, they don't work. In case of that, you have to download samsung drivers by yourself. I think you can find it in here or simply google it.
Here is an another issue with laptops that I also encountered: When you plug in, despite you having drivers, pc doesn't recognize it or constantly the device connects and disconnects every 2 seconds. In that case, you need to update your bios version. However, this case is not likely.(If you are not bad luck brian like me) So focus on driver installation.
