You device has entered a forced download mode.
Since you can still enter download mode, I will advise you to follow this tutorial.
Good luck

for now the phone is still connected to the PC and this is the situation:

what's the model of your phone, GT I9100 or GT I9100G?
Jokesy He has I9100 Look into picture
You can get the pit file here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1667886
Use the stock pit file first.

The picture shows he is trying to use Odin to load a firmware meant for an I9100. It doesn't mean that his device is actually an I9100.
He could be trying to load it to an I9100G, or some other device.

That's my point; we don't know what he actually has. His posted pictures only show what firmware he's TRYING to load. Not what the device is that he's actually trying to load the firmware TO.
Just because he says he has an I9100, doesn't make it so.
You know how many posts I've seen of people who thought they had an I9100 and actually had an I9100G, or vice versa?
Or now many posts I've seen of people who actually have a different Galaxy SII variant altogether (such as an SGH-I777, SGH-I727, SGH-T989, or SPH-D710) who have posted in this forum (for the I9100) and even tried flashing I9100 ROMs? More than I can count.

I don't suppose you tried another USB cable? Or another USB port? Or are you plugged directly into a USB port on the computer? Sometimes flashing doesn't work well when not plugged directly into the computer. Like if you're using a hub, or a port on a keyboard or monitor or something.
i`ve checked the USB cable and it is perfctly fine and the connection is not the problem...
also i have found the device box the check its moudle and it says: gti9100 SSN: -19100GSMH

Good evening friends, dev and other community members, recently my galaxy player connect to computer for music happen all good so far, when I go back to check if I end up spending the entire music encounter the following message on the screen of the Galaxy Player "Firmware Upgrade Encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again"
Do not let me enter recovery mode and when I can go to download mode and give the up volume key returns to the same screen, besides the samsung kies does not recognize it, I should clarify that this model only has physical volume buttons and power.
It would be helpful and useful if anyone knows how to fix this error.
Thanks in advance :good:
Well, I don't see how this is development for one. But concerning your problem, it sounds odd. Are you saying that it won't even let you enter download mode? Does your player even boot, or is it bricked? Have you tried to see if you can enter recovery mode?

I know and I apologize I think is not the right section for this question.
When trying to enter download mode goes indeed to ask you to continue pressing the volume up again the same screen, I can not enter recovery mode falls on the same screen and not a brick if the galaxy player.
I let you capture the screen, please respond and apologize to the trouble my friend.:good:

I am having the EXACT same problem. Except when I try to use Close PC Screen using Heimdall, even with device detected, I get this error:
Initialising connection...
Detecting device...
ERROR: Failed to access device. libusb error: -12
I have reinstalled the drivers numerous times. Also, the same download mode problem. When I press continue to use ODIN download mode, it goes right back to the firmware upgrade error screen. Odin does recognize it while it is on the the firmware upgrade error screen, but it fails when trying to flash a ROM.
Thanks for the help.

Ik this is kind of a late answer, but odin should be able to reflash the device, and if not, try rebooting the computer to see if you can get it to work again. That's how i got mine to turn on..But the dang touchscreen still doesn't work
Major Problem
Hi guys. I notice it has been a while since anyone posted anything in this thread, but today I encountered a serious problem. My Galaxy Player is stuck in the same position as the one mentioned in this thread, but I reached it in a different way. I was trying to flash the rooted ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1864741 : I have the US Version) using odin, and I followed all the steps. While doing it, Odin said it had failed, then I got the "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue" screen on my player. I can't enter download mode and my computer doesn't recognize it. The few times it does, it just says "Connecting.." in Kies and won't go past that. I've looked everywhere and couldn't find anything that works. Is there anything I can do? I feel like its just a soft brick but I really don't know. Please help.
I randomly get this while using heimdall to flash the cwm kernel. I just flash again until it works. The firmware error is the same as Odin download mode as far as I can tell.

Hi all ,
i had installed an official galaxy s2 4.1.2 rom ,and it worked perfectly. However ,all of a sudden ,it looked like it automatically updated ,and got stucked at "Optimizing app 2 of 9" or something like that . I waited for a while ,when nothing changed i have pulled out the battery and tried restarting it. So it just showed the samsung logo and didnt boot. When i tried entering the recovery mode ,it just stucked with the green JB icon..basically i could just login to download mode . I have tried flashing the rom again via odin ,but it got stucked at "factory.img" and eventually wrote "FAIL" in red . I have tried numerous roms ,stock roms but nothing seemed to work.(same problem). Now when i power up the device ,it says "Firware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again." I have tried flashing just the ClockworkMOD recovery ,but it also got stucked at "NAND Write Start!" and did nothing...
Another thing is ,that im afraid that i was running a really low space on my internal storage (16 gb) and im afraid that this is why nothing can be installed on my device..Could it be possible?
If so ,is there some way to access my storage somehow without booting up my device? Or in a worse case , how can i wipe my storage before the odin flashes?
Thanks in advance.

Try another odin version/usb cable/usb port/another pc/laptop.
I have tried different usb ports ,different computer and also different Odin version.
When i am trying to flash a complete rom ,it stucks at factoryfs.img,and if i am flashing just a kernel ,it stucks at "NAND Write Start" ...I have only one usb cable though , but it should be working fine because i was able to transfer files with it not long ago.
Could it be that lack of storage on my internal card is causing this kind of problem...?
Which sgs2 model do you have? (I9100, I9100G, I9100M, I9100P, I9100?, etc etc etc).
Which specific rom/files did you flash? (link)
These are the questions you should have answered in your first post prior to writing anything else. Without this info anything else you write is useless.
Can you provide screen shot of ODIN before clicking flash button.
Thanks for reply ,i will post soon the screenshot ,just need to gain one more post (10 or more
for posting screeshots.
I have a I9100 model and i tried a bunch of official roms for that model from different countries ,which did work for me in the past for sure ,because some of them i have kept on my hard drive.

device's internal memory corrupted, can't write/read it.
That's what partitions (pit files) are for.
Well ,that didnt work as well...same scenario. I tried flashing just the rom via pda ,i tried all 4 files at the same time ,i tried just the pit...always got stucked.
I guess i will take it to my mobile service provider ,unless there is something else i could try?
P.S - If my internal card is corrupted , will they be able to see i flashed a custom rom and rooted the device?

Lol, don't just flash pit files.
Read something about pit files first. There are a lot of threads regarding this topic.
Still stucked in boot right? no back up whatsoever?
Flash different siya's versions, see if you can get to recovery. When you do, try flashing a rom via CMW.

Keep trying to get into download mode. Turn phone off, hold power/home/volume down. If you still can't get into DL mode, try a jig. If you still can't get into DL mode even with a jig, service centre.

hold the button needed to go into odin mode and once the screen appears, try using odin. that happened to my phone once. i took my phone out in the middle of an odin update. the same screen appeared. i just put it back in and odin worked fine.
OP - I just realised something when I was outside having a smoke just now. The phone *is* already in download mode when you have those symbols on the screen (had a blonde moment earlier). It's just a matter of getting Odin to recognise the phone.
So....You need to try as many of the below steps as you need to in order to have Odin recognise the phone:-
*Must run Odin as administrator in Windoze.
*Ensure Kies & it's processes aren't running in Windoze task manager. Kill them if they are.
*Try different USB ports; you must be using a 'powered' or mainboard port.
*Try different USB cables (particularly the cable that came with the phone if you're not using it now)
*Try different versions of Odin (If you're using V3, use V1.3, and if that doesn't work use V1.85; search on here/Google)
*Uninstall Kies, reboot, redownload & reinstall it, reboot, try the flash again.
*Run Windoze Update.
And if all this fails, try a different PC. And if it won't work first time on another PC, go thru the above steps on that PC.
if odin doesn't recognize your device, maybe your PC doesn't have USB drivers installed.
I faced this problem when i tried to flash NeatROM but failed, and I want to get it back with the older kernel using odin, but my laptop doesn't recognize the device. I have tried different ports, but still the same.
I got the solutions by reading this thread, and finally getting directed to THIS THREAD.
- Download SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones.exe, and install it on your PC.
- Open ODIN whatever version and plug your device (at this point odin should recognize your device)
- flash the kernel you want
I hope my post will help

Last year i tried to disassembly the phone to fix a probably broken audio conector, then i decided to flash a new rom; since then, i'm facing bootloop. I tried to enter into recovery and simply doesn't go there. Download Mode works just fine, so i decided to flash a new stock rom and a TWRM (latest) and the system almost worked. I could enter Recovery Mode, but when i was about to try a factory reset, the touch stopped working. So i rebooted again, then a white screen (that first one that appears, with AT&T logo on it) appeared my phone rebooted.
I flashed a stock recovery but didn't had any sucess either...
Now i'm with a galaxy note 3 (n900) and my phone is in the shelter, completely useless.

Thanks for answering, but it was no use for me.
I can only enter download mode now and my device didn't shown on that list.

You only need to be in download mode for kies to work.
Don't use kies 3 that the note 3 uses. Use the original one. Make sure it's up to date. Reinstall the i717 drivers from Samsung. Put phone on download mode and plug into pc. Open kies and click "emergency firmware recovery" type in all caps SGH-I717. Then type in serial number and let it do it's thing!

Try clicking "Firmware upgrade and initialisation" instead of "emergency recovery". I might of told you wrong. I apologize. It's been awhile since I've needed to fix my i717. I moved on to note 3.

Here's a screenshot of what it looks like when i do EXACTLY as you told me to.
Also, it's a recently formatted computer, so isn't any driver conflict or thinks like that.

Firmware upgrade is what you want. The only problem I had was Kies didn't like my serial number. Luckily my wife has a OG Note and I used her sn with no problems Good luck!

Just did that and still the same problem.
Type in SGH-I717 not SHG-I717. Hopefully you caught that typo.

Unfortunately, it wasn't the case. I double check it before installing.
Maybe it's soft bricked.
Using odin to get you into download mode (not recovery), and flash a stock .tar file to get up and running again. Unless you have a hardware issue inside the phone.
If you want a decent tutorial on doing this, YouTube search "unbrick i717 odin" and the first video listed (for me anyway) is a video by Qbking77 on how to do this step by step. He gives links to odin files and .tar stock files for the i717.
My mom got a replacement A14 5G due to the A20 not booting, and I am gonna use the A20 as one of my phones.
It's stuck on the logo screen (the screen before it boots) and I am trying to get it on.
It doesn't connect to my laptop, either. So I can't flash any firmware.
I tried factory resetting and clearing cache, it also does not boot.
I tried restarting and it said at the top in red text: "Could not do normal boot." and some string of letters after and "Error" then force shut off.
Is there any way to get around this?
Thanks in advance.

He needs to find the right firmware. Since his is a U model,probably is Carrier locked. He needs to determine his carrier to find right carrier.

I tried flashing a combination firmware and it says "Please get the approval to use factory binaries" and a string of letters that say "PIT".
Strange.
I was sure my suggestion was to flash Stock Firmware for TMK...

So it froze on the USERDATA screen and now it doesn't boot. It also doesn't flash anymore. And it gives an error every time I start it up.
