How-to Revert to stock

I am not responsible if you brick your phone although you are likely soft bricked if you are reading this guide. This is how I successfully restored after flashing a T959 Odin rom/pit, I had to use a Jig after to get into download mode then was provided the necessary files by cnote74 on the following thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=978836&page=16
Here is a Jig on Amazon, I bought mine on Ebay for 3 dollars.

2.Remove your memory and sim card

Sorry to bump up an old thread, if anyone help who is familiar enough to help me with this, I really do appreciate.
Basically, I can't boot into the phone and I am currently stuck on "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue" error screen (http://androidcentral.us/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/Firmware-upgrade-error.png) whenever I boots up. I tried the step above on odin and it is giving the following error:

Its been awhile since I used Odin (I used heimdall as I'm on linux...), but I think this means that Odin is having difficulty talking to your device. Have you checked that you have the right drivers installed? You could also try running Odin as administrator.
If this fails, another thing to try would be a One-Click - see http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S/SGH-T959V/Heimdall_One-Click
Good luck!

[Q] Help with possibly bricked samsung infuse 4g

So I was trying to root my phone and put CWM on it, but it's stuck on the samsun boot logo.
History:
Used SuperOneClick 2.3.1 and had root on my phone.
Followed the steps to copy the 3e recovery with no sig check on internal SD card.
Renamed old recovery to recovery.back.
Pasted 3e no sig check into directory and changed the attribs to match old recovery.
Rebooted phone and now it's stuck on the Samsung Logo.
Tried to boot up in recovery mode using the 3 button method, the Samsung logo keeps resetting. Tried many different times with no luck.
Downloaded GTG's Ultimate unlock but it's always stuck at this part:

Even made a usb jib, with an old cable and 300K ohm resistors, with no luck.
What else can I do to try to get this phone back up?

So, I've managed to get my phone on downloading mode using the jig. It's not getting detected by ODIN (device manage shows Unknown device).
What can I do now
Edit: so I got on a winXP pc and got it working.

Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks

P3113 stick on "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue"

So I was trying to wipe my tablet in order sell it. It had Cyanogenmod 9.0 on it. After I factory wiped, it was stuck in a boot loop. Wouldn't get past the Cyanogenmod boot screen before it rebooted.
So I tried going into CWM recovery and reflashing Cyanogenmod. Once I did that, it now boots up onto the "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue" screen and won't go to anything else.
If I try to put it into either recovery or download, it just turns off then goes back to the same screen. I've tried to use Kies to restore it and nothing. Tried Odin and this comes up

I had the same problem, kies didn't work, neither did odin. I used every fix suggestion I could find.
It finally dawned on me that the battery was holding everything in place. I took off the back of my Tab 2 and removed
the battery. I re-installed the battery after 10 minutes and was able to re install a stock rom. I hope thishelps.

help no one can solve this issue??!

My phone just boots to the "Saumsung Galaxy Note II" screen and it is stuck there. I dont think its a loop because it doesnt loop (by that I mean it doesnt disappear and appear).
I m afraid using odin would erase everything.
I want to save my data, what should I do? Which rom do i use?
I tried downloading 3 to 4 note 2 roms but they all failed in odin.
Please specify what I need to download in order to save my data.
At this point, I am also ready to just give up and restore factory settings. I went to the at&t technicans, who are completely useless and they used their roms and couldnt help at all. I went to a fix phone place and they couldnt do anything either.
Please help!

Ummmm do you know that you posted this in the s6 forum and not the note 2?

i know but no one is capable of answering there.

Flash the stock Note 2 firmware on your phone via Odin. It should restore it to normal. Below are the stock firmware from Sammobile. Just pick the one from your country.
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/GT-N7100/

i tried the US version first.

You haven't said how this happened...
Did you flash a custom rom then it failed to boot?
Do you have custom recovery installed?
Tried odin on another computer or different USB port?
I had strange errors like that when I used a different usb cable. Went back to the genuine samsung one that came with the phone and it was ok.
Also, make sure Kies isn't loaded when you are trying to flash.

Your phone was stuck in boot screen. You could just have it factory wiped your or reset cuz the system files were corrupt and can't fully load... now that you may or may not have damaged the rom from flashing different flash file. Say good bye to your data... you have to search for the stock rom of your unit and search for tuts on how to use heimdall...
Sent from my HUAWEI P6-U06 using XDA Free mobile app

I downloaded various custom roms, all of which failed once this happened. I havent tried odin on a different computer and I only have one usb on my surface pro 3. I will try another computer.
I am using the original USB.
What do you mean Kies isnt loaded... I am using the Kies md5???
darqo, i am using the stock rom.

heimdall doesnt work either.
when installing the driver on zadig i only see the gadget serial and i dont see the samsung driver for me to update.

if it detects your device it can flash it use heimdall to fix your kernel preloaders and be sure to download the apropriate flash files.... some russian forums has lots of stock roms to choose from. what seems to be the usual error, is the first thing you must start with. dig on google for some tuts to resolve the error. in my case i disabled samsung kies. i only used its preloader drivers to detect my device. then used other software to fix it... i had that problem too with stuborn drivers. i used usbdeview to remove unwanted drivers the keeps bugging the program the instal the usb drivers from samsung kies program folder... you need a clean pit file for your device and fresh stock rom, a clean or fixed cache.rfs, dbdata.rfs to fix corrupted partitions of your unit...

Samsung galaxy s7 sm-g930A soft bricked, Odin isn't working properly with it now

Greetings, I'm attempting to stock firmware my samsung galaxy s7 sm_g930a.
The problem arrose when I accidentally loaded the root file (theunlockr, I can't give the url due to the youth of this account) into the BL section in Odin. I tried loading a stock firmware from samsung/at-t and I get the the following message.

The phone is still able to load to download and boot options but the boot screen itself just loops. Comes on, stays for 2-3 seconds then blacks then comes back for 2-3 then blacks again. I have tried clearing the data, clearing the cache, kies says it isn't compatible, tried swapping ports, the only other option i need to try after posting this is trying a alternate usb cable. I have tried both odin3 v3.11 and Odin3 V3.12.
The download screen on the phone at the top left corner reads Odin Mode (high speed)

fixed!
Ok, so aftering scouring for similar issues and finding no fixes for my phone i decided to start at square one and determine if it was odin. I found a Odin3 V12.3, unhooked the phone, reconnected it and the stock files loaded without incident. I got the no command once the files were loaded, did a factory reset and cache wipe and the phone booted normally.
