Hello,
I just updated the firmware of my brand new Note 10.1 (N8000) using Kies, which seems to have failed - I can't even turn the device off. I'm a quite experienced computer user, but brand new to Android. Any help or feedback would be very much appreciated (esp. how I can at least turn off the device).
Problem Description:
I have a new Note 10.1 (a German device/I'm in Germany using the Vodafone network, but I guess that shouldn't matter) and installed Kies today. The application identified a new firmware and suggested an update, which I did via USB. Everything appeared to have gone all right - the file got downloaded, transferred to the device, which then showed that it was installing the updates (something like 95 items). No error message. The device then booted, and that's where it seems to be stuck: since then, the device is in an endless loop: Screen is black, a swirling animation comes up, than the Samsung Logo, which stays for like 12 seconds, the screen goes black and it starts from the beginning (in total the loop takes like 15 secondes). Kies cannot connect to the device, and I can't even turn it off, it's just stuck in this endless loop.
Before the update, the device was neither modified nor rooted (I only installed a few apps), and there was no error message during the update (at least none that I saw).
Can anyone help???
Get the firmware file from sammobile and flash with odin. You can find a lot of how to regarding Odin, just do a search and you will find a movie or tutorial.
Here is the fw

The link is from sammobile, not a mirror, so it's safe.
Or you could just return it for an exchange.

To turn off, just press power until it turns off (about 10 seconds)...

I'm having the same issue!!!!!
Kies failed! Odin PASS and stuck in the logo!, it doesnt boot!
You may need to go into recovery and wipe data/cache partition. This will wipe your internal memory of everything but you will get an operational note...
Hello all, first time poster but I've been using xda for a while.
I was following a guys video on youtube on how to Android 6 using ODIN and got to the step of flashing my 5.1.1 bootloader, well it failed.
The phone rebooted and ODIN said FAIL in red.. I now get "SW REV CHECK FAIL DEVICE 2 BINARY 1" with the Samsung Boot logo.
I've tried Samsung Kies & Smart Switch but it says the device cannot be initialized or something even though it's the correct model and serial number from my sticker.
I've downloaded the 5.1.1 STOCK firmware from SamMobile and selected the TAR file for AP in ODIN and then failed aswell, my phone rebooted and said the same error message "SW REV CHECK FAIL DEVICE 2 BINARY 1"
Could someone please help me, I tried to flash TWRP and that fails too, I ain't bothered about losing everything, would just like my phone to work again please.
Much appreciated if anyone can help!

You could try using a genuine Samsung cable. I find that my other generic cable's are fine for transferring data, but don't play nice with Odin or Kies.

Greetings and welcome to assist. Can you get into download mode ? Smartswitch/kies both require download mode for emergency firmware recovery. Also you could use odin if you have recovery mode
Good Luck

Hi,
My phone is stuck on A51 logo for days now
it charges - I can enter download mode easily - I can sometimes enter recovery mode some other times it doesn't let me
I tried flashing different stock ROMs of android 10, 11 for the phone with different security patches. it ends with success but the phone is still stuck
tried wiping data / wiping cache no luck
I can't boot the phone to OEM or FRP unlock it but i know my gmail address and can unlock it if there was a way to input it
so how can i solve this
(my phone details)
it was on the latest update for june's security patch - Egypt
model number A515F
Same here, but how can you enter in download mode? I want to try to flash original rom aswell.
Has anyone found any information on this yet??

What is your problem exactly? If you are experiencing bootloop even after installing stock via Odin then it's possible your motherboard is dead.

I had a Galaxy a51 5G with cricket, and I am unable to get it to communicate with the Odin tool and I also keep running into an error saying a driver prevented this device from loading
Yes my motherboard was dead. However it has a problem which you can just heat the cpu and retry booting .. it will actually work for months but then die again
