More background please:
OS?, Kies version?, are you using the stock USB cable?....etc.
The os is the stock sgs firmware 2.1update 1,i am not using the stock usb cable it's an xperia x10cable,it's that a problem?
Cable wrong also turn off firewall .
jje
I tried with an original cable and still doesn't work.i run on win7 32 bit and the latest version of kies
I also have similar error.
I even reset my device to factory setting, and when I connect, Kies prompts to update the device firmware(as following), however - when I click update, it throws the error "FirmwareUpdate has stopped working"
Current firmware version: PDA:JG4 / PHONE:JG4 / CSC:JG4
(INU)
Latest firmware version: PDA:JP6 / PHONE:JP2 / CSC:JP5
(INU)
My Laptop - windows 7 64 bit.
Kies version: 2.0.0.11014_49
Check if all drivers are installed properly,
Have you rooted your device?

I reset my device to factory settings - so definitely not rooted any more.
Kies is able to detect the device and suggest the firmware upgrade - only to crash thereafter.
In fact I am able to do everything else - sync, browse etc.
can be something wrong with the pc?i can't understand why is happening this
Fairly common problem with multiple posts on the subject probably even a FAQ .
Seems to be many different reasons why Kies fails for some .
jje
i am running an orange romania SIM,the phone was not bought from them, do you think they could help me with the update?
Which version of Kies are you using? Try getting the latest version and run Kies as Administrator.
yeah same problem with me , My phone is i9003 newly purchased and i installed kies new version, I connected my phone it showing new upgrade and i accept that ... it says downloading please wait, once everything done it shows me error
my os is windows 7 64 bit
kies version is 2.0011014_49
i tried all kind of stuff,runding in admin,latest version,compatibility mide tc, nothing works... i really don't get it...

Your solution is there:

do not forget to thank
i tried this solution too,now it's stops somewhere at collecting update parts or something like that,but the program really stops, i also get that error: firmware update has stopped working...
Phone supplier or service centre is where i would go .
jje
i also had the same problem. i tried on 3 diff laptops but same thing. but jst keep on trying...i think after 30-40 tries..luck was on my side...and it worked.
tats how kies is
i found the "solution".kies has some compatibility issues with win7,i tried it on a PC that was runing xp and worked great,thx everyone for help
Hey guys, i recently bought my GS2 from 02. I am on the original firmware and have not updated to KE1 or KE2. I recently downloaded the latest version of Kies and plugged in my device. All the drivers were successfully installed and i could sync all my music fine.
I plugged the device in yesterday and it said latest firmware (KE2) was available. i said yes, backed up my device, and said started downloading. Once the firmware was downloaded it said preparing device for download.
Now is when the error message - 'FirmWare update stopped working' (on vista 32bit)
so anyone had this problem or know how to fix this?
i am not rooted or anything just stock
Its nothing with being rooted or anything else wrong with your device.. The problem is with Kies, it hangs sometimes.. Trying again, might help you..

Once i click uninstall it says comandroid.vending stopped working and the market crashes. then as as soon as i hit OK TW launcher also force stops so basically my phone is crippled and i have to reboot it... i really dont know whats going on!! it was fine for the past week
Just flash it using odin 2 mins your done read how to in devolpment section of forum

Or bother Samsung so they make Kies better. Goes like this: call them, say "Bother, bother, bother, bother"
Nah but still, contact them
I found Kies works much better on my netbook running windows XP 32bit than on my desktop running windows 7 64bit. If you have a windows xp PC you can use, I would suggest you give that a try.
I will contact them, also because im using o2 firmware i dont think i can flash using odin or can i?

You need to turn of your anti virus when updating with kies . the anti virus will delete a file half way.though update. so turn it off
AV and Firewall OFF .
Factory reset phone if you can
Kies no update try emergency firmware recovery if problems .
I will contact them, also because im using o2 firmware i dont think i can flash using odin or can i?
Flash with Odin if its a stock Samsung rom then O2 can refuse warranty Samsung will hour the warranty ..
O2 firmware and debrand rebrand O2 posted in dev section .

Thanks guys! turning the firewall did the trick and i am now on the latest firmware
So what are the major differences? I heard that the Auto-Brightness issue had been fixed (although my brightness is always set manually).
OH DAMN IT! The uninstalling problem still remains. whenever i go into manage applications and try and uninstall something it says 'The application market (processcom.android.vending.) has stopped unexpectadly. Please try again'
and it says uninstall finished but once i reboot its still there. I also cant install stuff from the market anymore after that message appears! I also cant get on the internet it makes me force close.
I have to reboot to get the internet working again... this really sucks anyone know why?
The final step would be to try a full hard reset of the phone but that would wipe everything on it so worth saving as a last resort.
As a first step have you tried going into
Settings/Applications/Manage Applications/All tab, selecting Market and press ing the Clear data and Clear cache buttons, just in case there's something in there that's causing a problem ?

I just tried that, and then this time when i tried uninstalling the TW launcher force closed! now i have to reboot or i cant even use the phone. I would probably do a full hard reset of the phone... How can i do that? using kies?

About the root im gonna wait until the guy has the kernel for KE2 which he said would be around the 23rd. And about the first link... why all the codes? i cant find a code with a full reset :?
You can use the current insecure kernel with KE2.
You install KE2 (of course), install the insecure KDD kernel via ODIN, root and install superuser via SuperOneClick then finally flash back the stock KE2 kernel.
The rooting works fine even after flashing back the stock KE2 kernel.

so i just follow chainfires guide as it is and basically once ive finished everything just flash back the KE2 he supplied? that sounds great i will do that.
one quick question though my phone is O2 branded.. does that affect rooting in anyway?
hi there people i know ur having soo much issues with the note 3 n9005 version on kitkat and for long time i m facing so meny problems like phone get stuck in samsung logo and crashes and all the above so i have a fix for u guys and let me share it with u if that helps i recently flashed the XSI version which is Saudi Arabian version on my Polish phone and for some how its not giving me any errors for now and its release 0005 something i dont know but for the first time it works and i m using my phone and its not poping any errors...
SO HERE WHAT U NEED TO DO:-
flash the rom via odin (http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=30198)
if u get a freeze ing the activation just quickly finish the activation if not the WIPE DATA & CACHE and then ACTIVATE.
and dont use ur old or previous google account on ur phone it will bring the backup and the backup will bring the bugs and all te nonsence back to your phone so make a new GOOGLE ID and SAMSUNG ID for app downloading..
and what ever u do dont update your phone it will take you back to your previous firmware and u will face your problems again. SO do this to prevent it from updating wait till the real fix comes out..... got settings - General - Application manager - ALL - scroll down and find 2xSoftware Updates and FORCE STOP them both and when you connect to the wifi it wont update
and ENJOY
Hope that it helps you out as it helped me
DAY 1: My phone bootloops when i flashed a modem. So I flashed a firmware base on my country (Philippines N9005XXUEND6). I used odin 3.09 for flashing, did check the FRESET TIME, AUTOREBOOT, AP BOX and BOOTLOADER UPDATE.. It was successful but on the homescreen, "setup wizard has stopped" flashes on screen so I factory reset via stock recovery, then it runs ok.. Set up is done,. But another problems are:
1. entering camera, it shows black screen then says "warning: camera failed".
2. entering the phone dialler it takes seconds to respond
3. music is freezes
4. unlocking the phone it takes seconds to open
5.wakelock takes seconds also to respond
6. no sound
N9005XXUEND6 is the firmware I flashed.
DAY 2: I flashed a different firmwares XXUEND5, XXUENB4, but i notice that i after flashing, no setup wizard in the homescreen. It is the same settings,wallpaper and i have the messages and conversations in my inbox. It looks like the firmware didnt update but i look up in the baseband and build version it does change.. A friend of mind says that after flashing a firmware setup wizard must pop on the screen but mine doesnt.HELP ME MASTERS.. Im losing hope..
I cant figure out the problem, my drivers is installed, i have the firmwares, odin 3.09, and all required tools for flashing
please help me masters.. I did trying reflash the firware and do the reset, the problem persist.. thanks in advance
I have a similar problem, but I think yours is much more simpler hopefully
You find the data unchanged because you didn't do a factory reset
To do so, turn off your phone then open recovery mode by pressing VOLUME+, HOME & POWER buttons together until it opens
Choose Wipe Data/ Factory Reset --> Yes
then reboot your phone
My phone turned out to have a RAM problem and still haven't fixed it, it will cost me a lot especially that I voided my warranty because I rooted the phone
The same problem exactly!!! And I do all reset severel times! Help us!!!

If you could fix it don't forget to tell us about it
BTW I found a post online that says the problem could be due to separated camera from the motherboard
So if you don't have warranty as myself you should get it to maintenance service and tell them to check the camera

What is your Knox Warranty Void status ?
if it's still 0x0, you should send it to Samsung service

Then I guess your problem is like mine .. it could be hardware related :\
After I installed this ROM I found the camera working but not video camera and still can't play videos but there are no hangs
It still has problems but it sort of confirmed that I have a hardware problem
You need to be rooted
It's an AOSP ROM without Samsung Touchwiz ..

You said you tried updating the firmware of your region and the problem persists .. You should let someone flash the software using a BOX (not just using odin) (preferably go to Samsung)
if it's not solved then it's most probably a hardware problem .. I didn't drop my phone either but that's not necessary

I saw now the CSC is XSP this is the only prb but also is csc free no bloatware.also you can root back again and you can restore your old settings except :
1. CSC settings and APP settings that camed with your original firmware
2. when insert your sim back you will be notified to update internet settings to your provider ( for me Vodafone RO) , you can change them back to google.com . is ok THX for your apreciation.
