Read the rules questions = Q&A
You give zero details of firmware or method of upgrading or what you upgrade to and have almost certainly failed to search .

Your phones not bricked. The jig should work. Try installing Kies. It will install the drivers needed for the phone

HELP!

I might have accidentally bricked my SGS 2. I get a screen saying:
"firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in kies and try again"
with a mobile phone and a computer logo with a Yellow triangle in between.
I know abt Rooting and ROM flashing etc and has been doing it for the last couple or years.
I flashed Franklin's XXKG3 Kernels, and before I could flash Chainfire's XXKG3 kernel, the USB ports refused to recognize my handset. I can still go into download mode but the Odin or Samsung Kies etc. won't do nothing.
Keeps saying "USB Device not recognized"
Please help!!!!

Might help to reinstall KIES or try another computer.

USB drivers problem remove Kies totally and reinstall .
Connect in mass storage mode and let windows find drivers .
That fails its broken phone .

you broke your phone.
buy another SGS II
You can always try using a USB JIG to put the phone in download mode.

I had the same problem on my SGS4g after updating to a leaked 2.3.4 rom, which would not make phone calls. Tried to use heidmall to downgrade by loading a new rom. After installing the usb driver as described here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14798367&postcount=1 . After reboot I get the error screen <phone..!..Computer> "firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in kies and try again". I then took the following steps.
I came across this site: http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Samsung_Galaxy_S_Series#Bricked_Screen Under the bricked section it mentions a couple things to try. I the reboot cycle with a couple of times and kept on getting the same screen. Still no go.
I took Odia's advice an did a complete removal of all usb drivers as mentioned and reinstalled kies. This was key in getting odin to recognize the phone again.
My solution:
I try Odin again to try to get it to recognize my phone. I open odin with the usb connected in this state and it is not recognized. I pull battery, it boots to error screen. I restart odin and then plug in the usb and it is recognized. I was then able to load my pit, pda, phone, csc back onto the phone with odin. The first time it tried to load the data it failed, the second time it worked!
Interestingly I never got the "Download Screen". I was still on the mentioned error screen, yet odin was able to still see the phone. The status bar still showed up on the error screen as the fresh rom was being loaded.
I thought I was totally bricked, but this method worked in my case. Hope something similar might work for you.
I still don't know I would get this error screen and have to go through this after loading the required usb driver for heimdall? Any ideas?
OMG! It's WORKING!
Thanks a lot to you all guys for the co-operation....
So, what did I do???? I uninstalled Kies and re-installed a couple of times but it won't access it. Tried Odin in all possible ways, No success. While playing and after ordering a "Jig" from some1 in USA,
I thought of something else and while the phone still being connected with the pc, I ran SuperOneClick, but it went on saying waiting for the device,.... I accidentally or in frustration hit the "HOME" button and it started doing something, USB drivers and Modem drivers installed on PC. Then I started Odin and the port went "Yellow". And I flashed it with the XXKG3.....
OMG! I'm so much relieved!!!!!!!! thanks God
thank you all too
Love your SGS2 and love God! Bless you all!

I love you man! You saved my phone and me!
So what have we learnt today? Don't go screaming "brick!" everytime you encounter a problem
I had a same issue yellow triangle between Phone and PC symbol...
followed this step .. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1274337
just did like this on very first step to get into odin mode hold vol down and power for longer then usual to get into odin mode and by pass that yellow triangle between Phone and PC screen and then follow rest of it same and easy as right clicking on desktop LOL!
From my experience, only true brick I encountered was when I messed with boot loaders. If the screen shows anything at all, Odin will recognize it. Glad to hear it's fixed

I´d tried to upgrade my Infuse SGH-i997 (AT&T) but I did something wrong and now the cell phone no work.
When it turn on says:
"firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again"
The computer recognize the cell phone but I don´t know what else I can do.
Any suggestion?
Can you get into download mode? If yes then reflash stock firmware using Odin

A bricked phone is a phone which will not respond. It maybe a soft brick or hard.
If you can get into download or recovery all you have to do is reflash. Wipe data & Cache. You will be up and running. If your phone is not recognised by your computer then reinstall kies.

Yep. Infuse Q&A (You're in the wrong section).

Well, I got this same Firmware upgrade error. I can't get the computer to see it at all. It's almost like the USB port doesn't work anymore. I can get into the download mode but then it ends there. I cannot get into the bootloader at all. If I try, it goes to the error screen and if I boot normally, it goes to the error screen.

I can't tell if you're asking for help or just letting people know, but anyway, considering all your previous posts were in the Epic 4G Touch forums, you've probably trashed your device flashing something meant for the I9100.

You need to keep kies on your pc and then use Odin

i followed this thread and it said to uninstall kies as it sometimes interferes with odin
odin wasnt seeing my phone when kies was installed and still not seeing it with kies uninstalled either
Yes it interferes with Odin. Just open your task manager and quit all tasks related to kies. Kies doesn't like Odin being able to do all the amazing flashing.

This should not happen... if it does... I'm guessing it's because... when you use kies, USB debugging should be off. And when you use Odin... you should enable USB debugging.
(This way has NEVER failed me... or anyone else I know. Otherwise something else must be up)

chris thanks but i even switched off my pc and and nothing in tassk manager is running related to kies
but thanks anyway
Because when you uninstalled kies, you probably removed the usb drivers you need. Try to re-install it and make sure you phone is in debugging mode after... before using odin.
If you don't want to install the drivers with kies, then you need to download and install the samsung drivers yourself.

ouch... that is a bit of a problem then. If you can't boot up your system... because debugging mode is needed.

I don't think that's true. To flash via Odin, you just need drivers installed (with Kies installation, or stand-alone driver installation), and the phone needs to be in download mode. If these conditions are met and the phone is connected to the computer via USB, and Odin still doesn't see the phone, you may need to try another computer.
lol. Are you trying this while the phone is plugged in via usb? Try unplugging it first... then go into download mode... then start odin and then plug in your phone.

i was flashing a firmware and in the middle of it loading onto my phone ,my pc shut down my phone wont boot up . when it starts up it comes up with
two little pc's and it says firmware update encountered an error please use kies to enter recovery
i can get the phone into download mode but kies doesnt see the phone neither does odin .
if i try to enter recovery mode by holding down power ,home and volume up it comes up with the same message about the firmware error .
hope this explains it

Then you know something I don't, because from all tutorials I've seen and videos... Odin won't see phone unless debugging mode is enabled.

Galaxy S3 not being recognized in odin in download mode
Could someone please assist.
My rooted Galaxy S3 phone (FW v4.1.2) is stuck at the Samsung startup screen after installing a font app from the app store
To resolve I have tried:
1. The recovery screen - doing a factory reset and reboot
2.. Reflash through ODIN.
I can get get the phone into download mode but ODIN will not recognize the phone in Download mode (Funny that phone is recognised by Odin at the stuck Samsung boot screen)
- I have unistalled and reinstalled KIES and USB drivers
- I am using the stock USB cable
- Tried different USB ports on computer
- Tried on different computers
The problem may be Windows driver related. Because phone gets stuck at the Samsung startup screen, all processes of driver installation do not conclude successful. "MTP USB Device" shows error in Windows Device manager, USB composite deivce.
Uninstalled and reinstalled these a couple of times without success.
Please assist
Issues with usb on s3
Actually fixed my own Question....
My phone was in download mode and was not being recognized by my computer my windows 7 computer. I pressed the usb icon, where a box popped up saying that there was an unknown device. You could find this in device manager.
I then went to device manager to update the driver instead of pointing the device directly to the driver when i clicked browse my computer for software then it shows a location and option to let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer then a box pops up showing model above that there is a little check box uncheck that two boxes will appear with manufacturer and model
Scroll samsung electronics and model samsung mobile composite device that is what you want to update the driver to...
I pulled the battery then re-entered download mode and windows to over installing the rest now it works fine. I would attach images but it will not let me for some reason. if anyone can help with that I will do it later.
THIS COULD POSSIBLY help with devices not being found on computers in bootloader or just on rom loaded and running..

Maybe solved it
Hey guys, i know it's a bit late now, but i had exactly the same problem with my gt-i9300 (got stuck on samsung splash screen and odin didn't recognize it in download mode) and just realised that everytime, i connected my phone to my PC in download mode, a message would appear that "Gadget Device" (or something like that) was connected. Then i searched in my device manager for the name of it (i found it under USB-Devices) and uninstalled the driver of it. As i connected it again with odin started it would install the driver automatically and *swoosh* odin recognized it.
A year and some later after the last post and I seem to be having this problem as well... I believe it was due to a bad flash at very low battery level which ended up in encryption failure ya da da, factory reset, clear/format everything and flash custom rom from SD because any other connection would not work.... then managed to get windows (many flavors inc. 7, 8 and 10) to connect as MTP or in USB debugging mode but Odin mode (download) just won't do anything... i put the phone in DL mode, nothing happens, no windows connection sounds, no changes in devices manager, even when searching for new hardware. I'd be very interested to know if anyone has had anything like that. I'd really like to flash stock to go back to a custom rom, flash twrp to replace cwm but all seems to no avail if i can't get a connection while in DL mode.
tried to install adb fastboot but also nada since no connection is being made.... might be something with DL mode gone awry with the bad flash... long story but OTA update from current ROM decided on its own to push update even though battery was at 5% and no user interaction ever happened...
we'll see what happens...

Make sure you are in odin mode on the device. I came from HTC One and didn't put my device in Odin mode. Duh.. right? lol.
You can get into Odin mode by doing "adb reboot-bootlaoder"
for the best results:
1.use an official Samsung cable
2. unplug all unneeded usb devices
3.reboot into download mode again
4.connect to a usb 2.0 port on the back of the pc
5.run odin as an admin
if that dose not work, make sure kies is removed, and re-install the Samsung drivers,
reboot pc, and try again.
solved similar problem...
reboot your phone into download mode, but yet not proceed, plug into pc, open odin (as administrator), put the firmware files in their respective places, and finally press vol up to proceed in download mode and press start, it must solve, if all else does not help .. hugs
Hope this helps, if so please press "thanks" ..

Do one thing when you are trying to connect in downloading , just make sure kies is not running at background.
Thing is kies blocks that connection which you are trying to make. It worked for me as well. All the best.

Make sure you are in odin mode on the device. I came from HTC One and didn't put my device in Odin mode. Duh.. right? lol.
You can get into Odin mode by doing "adb reboot-bootlaoder"

This worked for me after having so many problems. Nobody was clear on how to fix it. I had soft bricked my phone. It wouldn't connect to Kies or allow any pit or rom being flashed to it. Everything would fail. I tried doing what you said and it worked. I always got the errors 'No pit partition' etc.
I plugged in the USB without the battery in.
Phone wouldn't switch on into recovery without battery in so I put it back in.
I then took it out and Odin wouldn't connect to it and start the process without the battery in so I put it back in.
I loaded up the pit file and started it! You should have seen my face! haha! It worked!
It booted up! Hooray!
I switched it off and booted it in recovery mode.
Installed new rom (hopefully this won't break)
Thank goodness for that. I feel your pain guys. If you need any help just message me.

reboot your phone into download mode, but yet not proceed, plug into pc, open odin (as administrator), put the firmware files in their respective places, and finally press vol up to proceed in download mode and press start, it must solve, if all else does not help .. hugs
Hope this helps, if so please press "thanks" ..

USB Debugging NOT ENABLED - Phone locked!

Hi,
I was trying to remove any trace that my Samsung i9300 phone had ever been rooted but in the process I forgot to re enable the USB Debugging mode so consequently now I am locked in the download mode & if I try to reboot, the phone states "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again."! So as you can hopefully appreciate I am a little peed off with myself & for the life of me I cannot see away out of it so is there anyone out there please who can shine a bit of life on my troubled phone & please do not forget that the USB Debugging is NOT enabled.....
Kind regards with thanks
Phil
UPDATE
I have now tried flashing CF-Root-SGS3-v6.4 with Odin3 v1.85, but whilst the phone appears to be making a full recovery & Odin confirms a successful flashing it stops on the black Samsung welcome screen with an exclamation mark to the top left hand corner to the screen, so could anyone advise me what my next step should be please?
flash a stock rom through odin.

when you flashed the ROM, did you unplug the USB connector?
sounds like you bricked your S3 mate
You said that you flashed CF-root?
CF-root flashes recovery and kernel for root access.
Download a full stock rom from sammobile and flash it :good:
USB Debugging has no affect on download mode... :facepalm:
Upon Odin confirming that it was successful it was then & only then did I unplug the USB cable

Given that Odin confirmed that it was successful after the flashing the the latest UK firmware from Sammobile I then unplugged the USB cable, but I then found that the phone hadn't actually finished & instead it stopped on the black Samsung welcome screen & it won't budge from that. This may or may not be the reason for this, but I feel that I may have forgot to enable the USB DEBUGGING, so would this cause the phone not to boot correctly?
As I am unable to boot the phone, I am also unable to enable the USB DEBUGGING, so is there anything that I can do to resolve these issues please?

You say that the USB Debugging has not effect on download mode so why do other users/developers stress that it needs to be enabled?

I have a same problem with OP.
After entered to recovery mode and wiped/cleared cache, I didn't boot the phone, just continue to download mode.
It's mean USB Debugging is not enable after recovery. Now my phone can't boot also can't charge just appear msg:
"Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again."
Recovery via Kies can't be done because my phone have a problem IMEI=unknown and Baseband=unknown before this happen, so Kies can't recognise the phone. If IMEI is valid and Kies can connect the phone, the problem can be resolved by Kies.
I hope someone here have a good solution how to resolve the problem that ODIN can't reflash the phone because 'USB Debugging' is not enabled in the first place.
