[Q] Help with Samsung Grand - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

HI, have recently purchase a Smasung Grand from China Unicom, brought it back to native Singapore and tried to update firmware using Odin 3.07 with and .tar file I9082XXAMC8_I9082TMNAMC1_TMN.
Started working for a couple of seconds before the process stopped and my phone is stuck on the 'Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again' page.
I have tried plugging in to recover but Kies doesn't recognise the device and it is not appearing.
I do need help on this! Anyone with solutions please do help!!:crying::crying::crying:
Many Many Many Thanks!!!!

[Q] Urgent Help with Firmware upgrade

Hello Experts,
1) I have Samsung Galaxy S2 with Gingerbread 2.3.5.
2) I have opened Kies and it offered me firmware update to the PLE or something similar.
3) Kies downloaded the upgrade file and Samsung rebooted to the download mode.
It says "Downloading...Do not turn off the target..
I thought it should be for a while like 20 minutes or an hour. What can I do?
The phone is still connected to the PC and Kies is opened, but it can't connect to the device and it maybe logical - it's in the boot state.
Please guide me what to do, it's urgent.
Kies Help.
Kies firmware recovery tab.

[Q] HELP - 'firmware upgrade encountered issue...'

Hi, I have a big problem. I had the 'Charging paused...' message popping up all the time so, iI decided to downgrade from ICS to Gingerbread. Sadly, I was flashin via odin and it failed leaving me with the 'Firmware upgrade encountered issue..' screen. Now I can get into download mode but neither odin nor windows will recognise the phone. I've got odin to recognise it a few times by fluke and tried to flash a new rom but it's failed. Now I can't get odin to recognise the phone at all. What should i do. Your help is much appreciated.
thanks

Help! Error during stock firmware flash

Hi guys,
In need of urgent help, I was following totallydubbed's tutorial on returning the phone to stock as I need a warranty repair.
I tried to flash XXEMA2 firmware for Optus off Sammobile.
Everything was okay until about 75% through the odin flashing process of the stock firmware then I got an error about something not being able to be written.
Now on boot it displays "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again"
Doesn't connect to kies.
I can get into download mode.

What error message did you encounter exactly? If you cannot remember and you can get into download mode as you said, did you try to flash again?
I spoke too soon, after spending about half an trying to connect it to kies and reflashing it. All it took was a swap into a USB 3.0 port which reinstalled the drivers and it worked.. Took about a third of the time also.. Strange.
