Youre using the wrong factory image. Once upgraded you cant go backwards in firmware you can only go forward or flash the same one. So whatever version of the firmware you had on your phone you need to use that factory image in odin.
Hit thanks if I helped you out. Doing a little bit of reading goes a long way. Sent via tapatalk.

Stuck on flashing to stock with Odin

Hi, so i downloaded the version for my phone
GT-I9100_XEO_I9100XXKH3_I9100XXKH3_I9100OXAKH3.
I wiped factory/data reset, system something and dalvik cache.
I used odin to flash ticking only the PDA,
but it stuck for like 1 hour on this stage:<ID:0/012> factoryfs.img
Both the loading bar on the phone and on odin are on the same level.

Did you by chance check repartition? If so I think you may be in trouble.
Nope, i checked like 4 times before i clicked start, and i can see it now,
I didnt ticked Repartition...

Okay well there may be hope. Pull the battery and then use the button combo to see if you can get to download mode if you can then I suggest you restart your PC and make sure your using a UBS connection that is on the back of your PC, do not use any USB hubs or front usb connections. Also make sure kies in not running in the back round as it can interfere with the USB connections.
I made a backup with Cwk so i hope nothing will go wrong...
I pulled the battery, and i got to download mode, but odin doesnt seem
to recognize the phone...
Edit: i just noticed on processes, that kies Was running...
but Odin doesnt recognize the phone now...
Edit2: Odin managed to recognize the phone, so i started the process again...

Well as long as you can get to download mode there is hope. Maybe try a different firmware package.
Are you using the Samsung USB cable or the HTC one?
Successful!!
I just tried it again and it worked!
Thanks alot everyone, especially the one who told me to check
if kies was running
Hi, I been stuck on cache.img for hours (i left it overnight) kies isnt running in the background and i tried many times, im trying to flash XWKI4.
I came across this post and im using a HTC cable to connect, is this a problem??
Edit: Kies really messed up my phone it kept failing on firmware upgrade, asked me to do firmware emergency but that wasnt working either, eventually the firmware upgrade worked BUT the phone doesn't recognise my SIM card so i want to reflash in ODIN

Tell me about it, kies is useless.
I tried another firmware but thats stuck on boot.bin right now, i have to travel 2hrs to get my samsung cable!! no idea what to do now..phone doesn't start (says do an emergency recovery). Thinking of going to service centre, i know I haven't void my warranty.
. Thinking of going to service centre, i know I haven't void my warranty.
ROOT = warranty void .Custom rom = void warranty
So if you have neither you are ok if not you need to flash stock rom to unroot and set rom counter to zero with USB jig .

My SGS2 is with Vodafone Australia.

then i did some research and reckoned i might use the wrong rom, so just finished downloading another version: I9100TDULP9_I9100TVAULP7_I9100TDULP4_HOME.tar
but the issue is exactly same.
i use the rom for PDA, PHONE and CSC, didnt select repartition and not touch PIT either.
the phone is GT-I9100T.
Guys, please help me. i am a noob.
restart pc
kill kies
download the file again preferable from checkfus (builtin curruption check)
put the phone in download mode, connect the cable
put the file in pda.
all the new files i see are one file tar.md5 unless its different fro T
so just put in pda and flash.
edit: do not forget to wipe before nd after for optimal working

well heres all the firmwares for your phone hopefully u may spot the one you had if not just go with the lastest one.
FIRMWARE FOR GT-I9100T
the problem was fixed.
it seems i had to put both odin.exe and odin.ill into one folder (i extracted them on the desktop at first) or i should not load the rom file into PDA, CSC and PHONE. as there was only one file, i only needed to load it in PDA.

yes, it is where i downloaded the roms. i guess the first one i got was wrong, the second should be good. thanks.
but now, i have another issue with Kies. even though i used the "official" voda's rom, Kies still reckon "Your device does not support software update via Kies"
any clue?
Kies should work now that you've flashed the Voda ICS rom, however, for some reason (I have no idea why it doesn't work sometimes, perhaps someone else on here does ?), you'll find Kies still doesn't work even tho the stock rom contains the correct CSC, etc.
You could muck around for ages trying to find a solution to this, or you could simply do what most people on here who have found themselves in your situation do & that is to use Odin to flash future stock rom 'updates'.
Regardless of whether Kies works or not now, you do have the most up to date stock rom available for Voda, so you won't need to flash another stock rom until Voda issue another update (last one before recent ICS was in November).
Get the PC version of Checkfus, and when Voda do issue another update, you'll be able to easily download same & flash it via Odin.

THANK YOU FOR POSTING THIS ADVICE! Odin failed for me after several attempts, which scared the crap out of me as it was my first time flashing a ROM on my SGS2...
Since there's only one file in the downloaded ROM, you only need to specify the file in the PDA section!!! That's it so simple... the guides need to be updated!!

Wont boot, probably softbricked

I had a S2 i777, then I got a S3 so I gave the S2 to my mother. I just installed fresh ShoStock because I thought that would work well. It worked ok, but after about a month I came home and she said it wasnt working.
It appeared to be bootlooping at the ShoStock logo. I downloaded a new rom for it on my phone the put the SD card in her phone, booted into clockwork and tried flashing it. Trying to wipe or flash at all results in hanging for a few minutes then rebooting and getting stuck at the Samsung S2 logo now. Since then I've tried various odin methods for flashing to unbrick around xda. Every time I try to flash with odin, it either says error or it just hangs until I manually stop it after 30+ minutes. I've even got as desperate as to have Kies revert it to stock, it also hangs at 2%.
At this moment, you can see the screen its stuck it in the attached screenshot, its probably worth noting its been at this screen ever since the first Odin flash failed.
I do have a microUSB jig so I can kick it into download mode if I have to. Anyone got any ideas :f
Try the following procedure exactly as written. In case the problem is nand read/write corruption, this should clear it and get the phone working again.
1) Go to this post and download the Tar version of Siyah 2.6.14 Kernel. Flash it in PDA without ticking Re-Partitioning.
2) Successful? Nice. Next, flash the full stock Gingerbread distribution from the Download Repository, I777UCKH7 including the bootloaders and everything, in the PDA slot.
3) If that is successful you are done. If it is not, then:
4) Download the SBL Bootloader from the Download Repository. Flash it as PDA in ODIN, without ticking Re-Partitioning.
5) Flash the Kernel, as in step 1.
6) Flash the full stock Gingerbread distribution, as in step 2.
When I try and flash Siyah in Odin for step 1, it just hangs.

The box at the top says kernel and the progress bar goes all the way across, it will never get past this.
Since it won't flash the kernel, the next thing to suspect and try to find out if the cable is faulty. Or anything in the path from the computer to the phone. So...
Try a different cable, or as many different cables as you can put your hands on.
Try different ports on the computer, and use the ones attached directly to the motherboard if it is a desktop.
Try a different computer.
In some cases where there is a connection problem, just flashing repeatedly may eventually result in a pass, as some have reported.
Tried it on two different laptops, with three different microUSB cables on each, no dice.
I tried flashing the kernel from step one you gave, I also tried the I777UCKH7-CL503881 FULL Odin3 One-click from the Download Repository and it hangs at:

I don't have any additional suggestions for trying to fix it yourself. The problem could be one of several things. It doesn't seem like a simple soft brick. Maybe it could be damaged memory or some other hardware failure. Or maybe not.
If you are close to an AT&T service center, maybe you could take it by and ask them to flash it back to stock for you. If that fails, then at least you are pretty sure the problem is in the phone, not the connection. I realize it is not under warranty any longer, but they should at least try that for you.
You could send it to Samsung repair center to be worked on. They would probably fix it, but it won't be free, and it will also take two to three weeks. If it were me, I would call them first and discuss the issue with them.
Give these guys a call or message them and tell them your problem and they can most likely fix it. I have had work done by them in the past there quick and there professional...

Trying to flash to stock firmware in Odin, NAND write fails?

As the title states, I am currently trying to flash my phone back to stock to fix a soft brick. I was trying to get the latest update since I was on a custom ROM and couldn't get the OTA. I got the firmware from Sammobile, from what I understand to be a reputable place to get them. The flash in Odin seemed to go normally until it had the phone restart, It is now is a loop of flashing the "Galaxy Note II" screen. And I had CWM installed, but I cannot get to the recovery with it in this loop.
Yes, I have read the sticky before posting this. I am doing the only recommended thing I can find to do for this sort problem, flash it back to stock. I have the stock firmware, directly from the link in the sticky, and when I go to start it on Odin this is what I get:

Is there something I'm missing/doing wrong? I have installed a few ROMs before, but I am fairly new to using Odin and flashing the firmware.
I would greatly appreciate any help with this
Thank you!
Hi,
Hope you used pit file in odin along with rom file. Also, do a factory reset after successful odin.

Yep, I believe that was the problem. I didn't know it needed the PIT for this.
The phone lives again, but it's strange. The flash was almost done, got to the sboot, and failed. My phone had "unsupported version" in red on the Odin screen. I rebooted the phone, it went to the android update screen, and now it is working like it did before all this.
Now the question is, why did the 4.3 firmware send it into a boot loop? Is the file on Sammobile the right one? Would it be better to just get my phone back to stock with a stock recovery, and get the update OTA?
It is possible that the usb port I used was bad, I seriously need to remember not to use the front ports for something like this...
I need to read up more on this so I don't screw it up next time.

It is important to note that if you take the OTA, it WILL relock your bootloader. This means no custom recovery and no custom ROMs.

So I was given this phone that is stuck in download mode and am having quite a few problems getting it flashed with odin.... it seems to fail every time. not sure on the original android version it was rooted on ..

Seeing as Im new to this whole scene any help would be much appriciated

If i have to choose a certain version of the firmware is there anyway to check the version I need without having to turn on the phone?
Does the sw rev check fail error mention a fuse and or binary with a number next to it?

So .. I got the phone working by doing a firmware upgrade or initialization in kies, So I suppose It is fixed now .. I would still like to know what the problem could be using odin? I tried 5 different firmware upgrades from oldest to newest and couldnt get it to work. It is still kinda vexxing me, im sure I was doing somthing wrong . Any extra insight would be helpful to avoid this headache in the future?
You should go back to kies and see what version it flashed. That way if this ever happens again you can download that version and flash it through odin

Can you explain how you did this? I am running into a similar problem and neither a firmware upgrade nor a kies initialization is working.
Same problem here, I also don't know what my phone bootloader or firmware, I'm also stock in download mode...hope someone can answer and help us...
