Try to Download/Extract this file and Flash the .tar via odin by selecting Phone.CP. Make sure to turn off your Phone manually and wait 5 to 10 sec and boot into Download mode and flash.

Kit Kat have new bootloader. You can't come back to old bootloader (android 4.3) for that u dont have sound. You will have to make a full wipe and flash again Kit Kat with Odin

KIES running in background as process?
Tried another USB cable?
Tried to use another USB slot?
In order to turn it off ... did you try to push Powerbutton and hold it pressed until re-boot?
BTW what did you do to get into this situation?

Try flashing a Stock ROM with ODIN
PS: Give more informations please
hi
​Thank you for your quick reply. Fortunately i've resolved the issue. Indeed i've flashed a stock rooted rom(XXBMEA) and it worked. Unfortunately my goal was to flash the new Omega v5.0 rom but it looks like i cant flash the new TWRP 2.5.0 kernel. I can flash it successfuly but nothing happens. Can you please help me in this sittuation. At this momment Im using the XXBMEA stock rooted rom with the wifi and data fully working. So i think i could flash at any momment the Omega rom if i could flash a working TWRP or any other way if u know. Please help me.

Phone only boots with root and TWRP...Cant install stock!

Hi everyone,
I hope someone can help me with this problem. Basically I was updating my phone to mk2 BTU via kies and it failed. Kies stopped recognising the phone and it kept going in to stock recovery.
I tried manually flashing stock mk2 via odin but I kept getting the same result.
Then I got fed up and I rooted (cf auto root) and installed TWRP and my phone booted in to a rooted mk2. My knox is now triggered which is a bit annoying but at least it works now.
The problem is if I try to flash stock rom via odin it still does the same thing boots in to stock recovery and then I have to root and install twrp again. I blame all this on KIES!
Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks
Any ideas anyone?

Not clear here - by stock rom do you mean stock MK2 ROM (unrooted, same CSC as the rooted one that works)?
Have you also tried in Kies the special "emergency recovery mode" (under tools)?

Hi,
Yes thats right MK2 stock unrooted and same CSC. I tried KIES the first time with emergency recovery but it kept saying device unsupported, that's when i rooted it and installed TWRP and it worked. I don't understand it.

Go to recovery, backup your EFS and MODEM. Move the whole twrp or other recovery folder to pc or external sd card. Then go to recovery and wiped every thing out including internal memory, powered off your mobile go into download mode but before that download a latest firmware from sammobile.com and flash it through odin. If problem persists please root your mobile, flash the recovery . And restore your EFS and MODEM folder. It will help.

Try Flashing stock firmware from Odin it may help you

I think it is the only way to get his phone back
