Hi Experts

Keis does not list my phone while trying to do emergency firmware thing and Odin does not detect my phone as well ( i think). Can I get some help to fix this issue

Hey guys,please help me out.Today while Rooting International Galaxy S4 with CF-Auto-Root via odin,the odin encountered a problem and ended eventually interrupting the Root process.when I turn on the phone it says ''Firmware Upgrade encountered a problem.Use Kies to recover it.''
So i downloaded the official Jellybean 4.2.2.When I started installing this firmware via odin,its always getting stuck at Setup connection and eventually says Failed.This is happening again and again.I tried using different USB ports and using different PC,but still no success.
Please help me out guys,please.

Option 1, Make sure no Kies is running in the background and try flashing using odin 3.07/04
Option 2, uninstall kies restart the system and re do the process of updating the firmware / try diffrnt ports and cable if possible
Option 3, If this does not work try latest firmware that should work

I did it guys,I only flashed my phone with Pit file and nothing else.My phone is now booted!
Help Please. I was updating my phone and know I'm messed. Phone is stuck in download mode with Firmware upgrade encountered and issue. Tried to use Kies to fix it but it just downloads a bit then hangs there and does nothing. Tried to Odin 4.3 stock but the Knox bootloader won't let me. Any advice besides using it as a paperwait.
Update:
Fixed the issue. Firmware is I337MVLUEMK6 .Just downloaded stock firmware and used Odin 1.85 and used upgrade bootloader and placed file in bootloader section only.
First off give some more details. What were you updating to when the problem arose? Which 4.3 were you trying to flash in Odin? I saw another individual who needs the mk2 Odin file. If someone is able to provide it I would say that is your best bet for now assuming you were already on a non-MDL firmware, which I would gather is the case.
Also, XDA does not condone any type of fraud. Take that talk elsewhere

Hello guys,
I tried to root my SM-N900 this morning. I've root my Note 2 before and i thought it would just be the same. Unfortunately as i am starting to root with Odin, i've waited for hours but Odin is still not done with the phone and the download bar progression thing didnt move an inch. So with regret i turned off the phone and now it is stuck on "firmware upgrade encountered an issue" screen. I tried to download firmwares from sammobile but failed at 99% with a message of Unknown Network Error. So with that, are there any other solution possible? I've also tried Kies, but it wouldnt recognize my phone..
@bluws just download any stock firmware for your phone and flash it later with Odin. Use Odin 3.04 or 3.07 if 3.09 failed.

Make sure you are using correct Ver of root, make sure kies not running in bag round when you flash threw Odin, take care of antivirus

Try to connect your phone from the KIES program in a mode of emergency restoration of firmware by Model phone type and Serial Number of the phone. This may take several hours. To do this, you need a good internet.

Did you previously disable Knox? If you didn't, that can cause random problems, read about it in the newest Chainfire's thread in recent post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=55325329
What kind of root process did you use Odin for?

Ty guys i got it working just by flashing a new stock rom. Tho now i am unable to call (no mobile services). Apparently it says that there are no sim card or something like that, does the region of the firmware i downloaded have something to do with it. Im living in indonesia (xse) but downloaded the russian stock i think.

Good it works again now!
Maybe it is just a baseband problem? I'm sure you will find an asian baseband only and be able to flash it.
Is your IMEI number still there? If yes, make sure to create backup of it now.

A week ago i tried updating my verizon samsung galaxy note 4 via the Verizon Software Repair Assistant. First i upgraded it to the latest software available but as there were some problems during the instalation i decided to repair the phone(deleting everything) an made a backup in my computer. The thing is during this process it got stuck over and over again in 83%. So i took out the battery (even when its not recommended to do so), uninstalled the Verizon Software Repair Assistant (first i deleted the device from my computer), drivers and Kies. But when i tried to download everything again the USB didnt recognise my phone and didnt download the Software, tried looking for it online but no luck.
Now i am stuck with this message in Odin Mode:
Software Update Failed
Your device didnt update successfully. Use the Verizon Software Repair Assistant on a computer to repair your device and complete the update.
My phone details:
Model: SM-N910V
SKU: SMN910VZWE
Tried to solve this with Kies, Smart Switch, unroot it with Odin, etc and it didnt work. Can somebody help me?

You should download the latest stock tar file and flash it with Odin. That should resolve your issue.

Thank you for response, help and effort, but I did by Odin few minutes ago, just using repair firmware file for my N910V Note4..!
If somebody has same issue or similar I think him/her could use it to resolve too. Thanks to xda user Trex888 who published the next link to download correct file for my phone: http://www.tsar3000.com/Joomla/inde...ader-csc-pit-files&catid=55:samsung&Itemid=82
Complete thread link is: https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/help/software-update-failed-sm910v-t3498246
Thanks again..!
I had same issue, fail on all firmware (Verizon Note 4), changed usb cord, flashed back to stock and was even able to downgrade (5.0.1).
Does anyone know the name of the file that worked? Link is dead.
I have a Note4 that had Android version 4.4.4. I wanted to upgrade to 6.0.1 but the Odin failed at the last step (hidden.img I believe). Now, on reboot it goes to Firmware has encountered an error. Use Kies. I tried Kies but it says that SM-N910F is not supported for initialising.
Next, searching online, I found a PIT file and used that. No luck. Same issue. I guess, I screwed up now since original partition is probably lost. Question however is - can I recover in any way? Kies and Smart Switch both fail to recognize device.
Ths SSN is N910FGSMH. It is UK model I believe but I don't know which operator. What are my options at experimenting and recovering? I had tried N910FXXU1DQHC_N910FEVR1DQH1_EVR and then EVR-N910FXXS1DQG5-20170731165019 ODIN files.
Hi, agaurav
Did you get to a solution?
Thanks
I did but I don't remember the solution at all. I am not good at these things so don't know which website and what instructions helped me get this working more than a year back.
Sorry, can't help now.
