Please help! I'm new to flashing firmware to the phone. So I downloaded odin and the Frankenstein XWKJ3 firmware, and followed Intratech's guide to flash the phone. I checked the system tray and Kies was not running there, HOWEVER I didn't know that Kies is still running as a background process.
When I use odin to flash the phone, it failed halfway through probably because of Kies background process. Now my phone is stuck. I took out the batter to reset it and it's stuck at a screen that saids "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again"
Please advise on what I should to to recover the phone.
Thanks!
I was able to get the phone to go to download mode and tried flashing again. This time I made sure Kies is not in background process, yet the flash still failed. Can anyone help me to see what I'm doing wrong here.
Trying to post a screen shot of odin
Please see what should I do here

The fact that phone boots in download mode is evidence that bootloader is ok. It is not givin any info about the rest of the system condition.
searched a bit mor. pit file gave an installation error. it`s said emmc is damaged. thanks anyway.
Flashing official firmware via Odin doesn't work?
Do you have custom recovery? I think restoring .efs might help restore product name, I might be wrong though.

Flash it again. Try unchecking auto-reboot and after it's finished flashing just hold your power button until it reboots.
If it still doesn't work, flash the stock rom you are on to get your phone working again. After that you can try again.
ps if you just want to flash a custom rom, you can just flash a custom recovery and skip the rooting part.
Hi,
It's very likely it didn't install the recovery correctly, please try flashing it again.
I recommend using a JIG to boot in download, when using it, an installation never failed.

Just reflash stock firmware for you device.
It was rooted because I paid for a service to remove FRP. Was working fine for a couple months until on day it started pulsating at the ATT logo. I can get into download mode but when I tried many times to flash back to stock it gets error message. The only way to turn it off is by getting into recovery mode and powering off while plugged to charger.
How can I get phone back to normal?
I get this message on the phone

Hello, I'm having the same issue.
I'm trying to find the stock firmware to reflash it back to stock, however, Odin keeps failing.
My Basband is :
G935AUCS4BQH1
My Build Number is:
NRD90MG935AUCS4BQH1
does anyone know how to find a correct firmware for that?

I have the same problem. Did you figure it out.?
I was trying to root and mod my spare Galaxy S8 and during the process the battery died... now it is stuck on the boot screen. When it turns on it opens to the custom Samsung boot screen and does not change or boot any further. When I reboot it with the button combination it boots into upload mode. From there I must reboot again. I can still get into download mode and into android recovery mode, but have been unsuccessful at and attempts of flashing with Odin, ADB, or from the SD card. I am completely confused. Any advice will help and be greatly appreciated!

Use modded Odin with the latest firmware which is QL1.
Stop trying to root
I having a similar problem, just that it DID finished updating. Now it's stuck at boot screen even after updating it to the last version available (AQL1). I don't know what else to do....
well I gave up and finally went to Best Buy and spoke with a samsung employee.
I was able to get my phone back in 100% working order! He just used his special scan tool and flashed it the very first time. For FREE!!!!!
