Flash a stock Rom with Odin
Don't worry, if you can boot in download mode you can flash a stock firmware. But sorry, your internal sdcard will be wiped.
Check this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1646610
Keep calm and make sure you are doing everything right, I had a flash fail before now, I know what it can be like.
Make sure all Kies processes have been stopped in task manager and try to flash a stock rom through Odin, double check all the right things are checked in Odin, and try to flash, if it's adding the phone in Odin it should be able to flash.
If all that doesn't work try to do an emergancy recovery using Kies, but that shouldn't be needed.
....and remember when flashing stock it can take 10 mins to boot, and I'd it still doesn't boot then boot into recovery and do a factory reset

Hello, I wanted to add my previous Issue I had before running into this problem.
I currently need to fix a issue ASAP as I am selling my s3 soon. I tried to unroot my s3 and reset it to factory settings but flashed the Verizon firmware on my phone and not the international version firmware. The flash failed in Odin and now I am stuck at a screen saying the Firmware upgrade encountered an error. Please try again. I tried to go into download and recovery mode multiple times and cannot do so. I assume is bricked or soft bricked? Can I use a usb jig to get into download mode?

After purchasing a USB JIG, I can now get into Download mode, but the issue is every time I try to install a stock firmware, I am stuck in Recovery mode. The binary count on the phone says "18", but I am not sure if that has anything to do with it. Please help, thank you. My phone is the I9300.
So the stock ROM installs without errors?
Have you done a factory reset from recovery afterwards?
This should be fixable unless the firmware you flashed also included a bootloader

No, the stock ROM cannot install, every time I try to install the ROM, it gets stuck in Odin says "Recovery". I cannot get into the phone because it will still show the firmware error if I unplug the usb jig from the usb download mode.
Have you tried Kies if you want to return to stock, start Kies and go to Tools > Firmware Upgrade and Installation
Follow the instructions on the screen, this is supposed to completely reset the phone and install the latest firmware version for that phone
I am trying to install a stock or custom recovery mode for the time being. I have lost the recovery mode trying to install a custom ROM. Now no matter what I do, I just can't install a recovery mode.
CWM - odin's progress bar is stuck on 0%
TWRP - odin crashes after you click start on the program
Installing from SD Card - soft bricks the phone since it will force into recovery mode.
I truly need a lot of help and would appreciate any assistance or someone to message to guide me step by step. Thanks.

Have you tried starting over from scratch? In other words reinstall factory software, root, etc.......

Just in case -- flashing with Odin may require that you are using the stock Samsung USB cable. Are you?
Everything on it is still factory stock, except it is rooted which has been working properly for some time. Worst case scenario I might have to redo this. This is my first custom rom installation basically.
It's the stock USB cable that came with the Note. And I also tried different USB ports.

What's the exact filename you are trying to flash? I remember when flashing recovery to my Note (AT&T-branded Note), I loaded cwm-touch-i717-120414.tar.md5 into the "PDA" field of Odin version 1.85 and left the check-boxes as-is.
Have you used Odin ever before to flash this phone? I'm wondering if the driver has been installed so your PC can recognize the Odin mode that the phone is in. I recall the driver I used was USB_Driver_for_ATT_I717_Galaxy_Note_v1_3_2200_0.exe

I've used Odin before to root my phone and had no problems with it. The file names are:
openrecovery-twrp-2.3.1.1-sgh-879.img.tar.md5 (Crashed Odin)
clockworkmod_touch_recovery_5.8.4.3_i717.tar (Odin had no progress)
openrecovery-twrp-2.3.1.1-i717.img.tar.md5 (Crashed Odin)
I can't find any of the latest version of CMW or TWRP for a CM10 installation that works.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong but since you're rooted, can't you install goo manager and have it install the recovery?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
Ye you could install it from there or from ROM manager either way though quick ? Is Ur USB cable a good working one? Have you tried attempting the odinizing through another pc? That's for the fella havn issues.

additionally have a look at this link:

I've used it twice and it's very easy to follow. download the zip they have under "sponsored link" and use the Tar in the zip. Also verify that your phone is being seen by your computer, it should display in your device manager as well as show a COM in odin.
USB is fine, no bends, kinks, or frays. The computer recognizes the cord for charging and accessing the phone and the Yellow or Blue COM shows up properly in Odin. I tried the GooManager to install TWRP and it downloads the recovery, says it is installing it and after about 10 minutes goes back to the home screen. No successful installation notification or anything. ROMmanger just fails for me. It shows my recovery as 5.X.X.X and when trying to flash it just hangs on the Flashing popup forever until the screen turns off or a button is press or the screen is touched.
The phone is rooted fine, I just need to put the samsung recovery, twrp, or cwm on it to update it to the latest version to install CM10. Right now there is no recovery mode, just download mode for Odin.

If you tried installing all those recoveries in odin and failed, I would try starting over from scratch. When people soft brick their phones they go here and follow instructions. That link has an odin .tar prepared with the stock AT&T Kernel, System, and Recovery. Notice it says RECOVERY! After flashing that in odin you should be able to boot into recovery and take over from there.
Try that and report back!
I have an idea...do away with Odin altogether
but it's advanced and could potentially brick you.
Take a tar with the recovery you wanna use and extract that file. Take recovery.img and put it on your sd-card (put it on the internal and external sd-card just to be sure).then connect to pc.
Now Issue the following adb command. I SUGGEST YOU COPY AND PASTE IT, IF YOU TYPE IT WRONG YOU WILL HARD BRICK YOUR PHONE
adb shell dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p22
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU BRICK
So I'm selling my Note 2 and yesterday I did a reset but the device went to a bootloop, doesn't pass the flashing Samsung Logo.
My Device was using L900SPTBMK4 and I want to do a restore. Kies doesn't recognize it when in Download mode, does it when is on the loopboot but never finished the connection, stuck a connecting.
In odin the device isn't recognized when in download mode either, as Kies, it recognize the device when stuck a the bootloop. I don't to if is safe to try a flashing in this mode.
Using ODIN v3.09
Autoreboot checked
F. reset Time checked
I don't remember what download mode I suppose to choose from BL/AP/CP
I also have this file L900VPUBMK4_L900SPTBMK4_HOME.tar.md5 to try the flashing if recommended.
Thank you for the support
Forgot to tell, I don't have any recovery option installed.
I just can go to the Download Mode
Guys, the device has been recognized by Odin on my work PC.
Just need to know what file is the correct to be flash by Odin and what option do I need to check,
Regards
:laugh:
Downloaded SPH-L900_MK4_Full Restore_UNROOTED (Compressed Archive) and after that I ran it, was uncompressed and the I ran the uncompressed file called SPH-L900_MK4_Full Restore_UNROOTED.exe with the device in download mode and everything worked like a charm.
From the beginning I understood that this was what has to be done but of course 'my awareness' was about the correct file need it.
Thank you

Hi,
My friend has been using his Galaxy s2 for over quite some time and suddenly it froze during the bootscreen. It has been a clean version without anything warrenty-voiding stuff on it...
He asked me to look it up and i managed to get the phone into Download mode (Recovery mode wasn't working)
First time i tried to flash everyting over again on my Windows with Odin without using PIT files, after that i went into Ubuntu and still no luck..
At last i went back to Odin, flashing with PITfiles. When i tried this my PC froze and after a few hours i decided to reboot my phone. When i tried to get it back into download mode i just got a blank screen. no Download mode, no Recovery mode and so on. Even when i plug my phone into the wallcharger nothing happens.
Is there anything i still can try to get his phone up and running again?
Thanks in advance!

Did you tick repartition phone when you were flashing the pit files? Are you trying to use stock rom or custom rom? Stock rom requires the system size to be at defaults so make sure to flash a stock size pit. Otherwise, make sure you factory reset and wipe cache partition if you are trying to flash custom rom.

It was a stock rom i used with the stock pit.
The problem is i couldn't (and still cant) get into recovery mode. I could (not anymore) get into Download mode.
Do you have other thoughts?

Have you tried a USB jig? See if your phone reacts too it. Since you can't get to download mode, you hard bricked your phone (assume your chsrging port is still ok). Were you running ics or JB?

It was running on ICS, I will try the USB jig ASAP and i will get back to ya!
Thanks for now
Still not working..
Trying an USB jig didnt put the phone into download mode. I bought one online and also tested it on my phone. It did work on mine but doesnt on the bricked S2. Is there also something else I can try now?

I had exactly the same problem. The phone had to be JTAG restored. This process isn't for the feint of heart to say the least.
Google "JTAG i9100" and watch some Youtube vids.
Hi
I can't possibly state how foolish I feel right now, but I accidently flashed my Samsung Galaxy S2 I-9100 with a Custom ROM made for the I-9100G version. As a result my phone is now only able to reach the Download mode; not even recovery mode. However on connecting with Odin the test is repeatedly FAILED. I am now left with a stuck phone which when tried to be powered up is always stuck in an incomplete boot cycle. Do we have any suggestions / ways to get this corrected, or do I have to order a new phone!??
Please help...
Thanks!

Have you tried re-partitioning your phone yet with ODIN?

Not yet. I may actually be a perfect example of one who should NOT try rooting..complete newbie in this world!!
In case you have any suggestions how to go about doing that please do share the same.
I took a backup of the stock ROM using Nandroid and had TWRM installed.
Of course, these are of no use until I'm at least able to reach the recovery mode!!
Have a look at my guide here on how to use the pit files: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...ivatives/mod-increase-partition-size-t3011162
Download the stock pit file
Download the official stock firmware
Flash both in ODIN (tick repartition and make sure you have selected the pit file and the stock rom to flash)
Start the flashing process
