i9505 bricked? - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a i9505 that i decided to CF-AutoRoot using Odin, while flashing i got a "Complete(Write) operation failed".
Now I cant open it because I get a "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue.Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again".
Opened Kies couldnt recognise it. Any idead what to do next? I believe I was running on XXUBMF8 official stock rom

Can you get into download mode? If you can, plug it in and try rooting again. I believe you are not supposed to run Kies when you are in the middle of rooting though...

If you can reboot in download mode, try to flash a stock rom with odin. it should work. that's how rom's must be flashed with odin, not in recovery mode.

do u have the drivers installed??? download a different stock firmware for your i9505.. and try two ,three firmwares if still failing,, you can get firmwares from http://www.samfirmware.com
and try to flash using Odin make sure your drivers are working also removing Kies if you have as it could interfere..
My device is currently stuck in a bootloop with:
"Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again"
I've loaded up Kies and it sees my phone is there and tries to connect but will sit there for a few minutes and then says that I need to reboot the device (this doesn't help either, same every time).
I'm unable to boot my phone in to recovery mode. However I am able to boot into download mode. So I've tried flashing root and/or CWM onto it but it fails each time. As does trying to flash stock firmware (or so I believe that's what "I9505XXUBMEA_I9505OXABMEA_I9505XXUBMEA_HOME.t ar" is).
I've searched and found some people suggesting that I try and flash a stock ROM through Odin, but unable to find one in a .tar or .tar.md5 format
I'm completely stuck now and unsure what to do. Can somebody please help me out.

Thanks mate. Trying a different copy of the stock FW now.

[Q] Can't flash I9500 stock rom?

So here's a run down of what has happened:
1) My phone prompts me to upgrade to 4.3
2) Following the update, the phone boots but is unresponsive; (just keeps on saying that app has crashed)
3) Tried to go into recovery mode, but it didn't
4) Used the Kies Emergency Firmware Upgrade method but it stopped and said that an error has occured
5) Now my phone is in a state where booting brings me to an error message that says "Firmware Upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again"
I have already tried to use Odin to flash a stock rom onto it several times already. I used both 3.04 and 3.07 versions with the 4.22 ser and 4.3 ser roms and they have all failed at Nand write or Can't open the serial(COM) port. or etc.
I've been browsing the forums for a day now and no help. Do you guys have any suggestions?
(I can still enter download mode.)
Bump.
Does anyone have any alternative methods other than flashing stock with Odin until it works? I'm just getting fail messages

Firmware upgrade encountered an issue.Please select recovery mode in kies & try again

I tried to root(for the first time) my s4 i9500 using odin.After clicking on 'start' the process failed and whenever I try to turn on my phone it says "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue.Please select recovery mode in kies & try again".I can still get into downloading mode by pressing volume up,power and home button.
I tried my best using kies but it didn't recognize my device.At the moment I'm downloading a custom stock for my device and I'll try to install it using Odin.Please help me out guy :crying:
