Emergency Firmware Recovery in Kies

Hi, all.
I just received my T-Mobile S3 today. Installed the most current version of Kies, as I don't trust the cloud for syncing, and synced with Outlook. Worked great. Nice to see this feature is enabled after dealing with my unsupported Vibrant for so long.
It's interesting. On the opening page of Kies, there is a heading for "Firmware Information", then beneath that, in big orange letters, "Your device does not support software upgrading via Kies." It goes on to list "Current firmware version: PDA:LEM / PHONE:LEM / CSC:LEM (TMB).
In any case, in Kies, under "Tools", there are three interesting buttons, "Emergency Firmware Recovery", "Firmware Upgrade and Initialization", and "Firmware Upgrade Settings".
The "Firmware Upgrade and Initialization" button says my model isn't supported for that feature. The "Firmware Upgrade Settings" just lets you specify whether Kies should automatically download any firmware updates.
However, when I clicked "Emergency Firmware Recovery", it seemed to be working and attempted to connect to my phone. Seeming as how my phone is working just fine and I just finished inputting all my settings, etc., I cancelled it, so I'm not really sure what it might do.
I know at least one person had posted that they were having trouble booting after attempting a flash (I think), so maybe someone in that situation, or maybe someone more curious than me, could download Kies and see what this option does.

[Q] How to get Android version while unable to get in to the device

Hello, there
I tried rooting my device while that it got stuck. Now I have the problem "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again.". To solve the problem I tried using firmware recovery and firmware upgrade and installation but each time I got error from Kies such as "sm-n900 does not support initialization", "device is not responding", ..... etc
Now, my alternative try is using Odin. I need to know my android version to download its corresponding firmware version. :|
How can I know while my device is stuck showing the black screen "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again."?
I do appreciate your help in advance

Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try agai

Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try agai
Hi. I got the problem where I cant use my tab, because it just shows this message: Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again.
It happened because I tried rooting my tab in Odin. At first it failed, I tried it a second time and it kind of lagged.. so being my stupid self I disconnected the tab and since then I have this problem.
I tried looking for some resolutions, but half of them either uses Odin:
1. which I really dont know how to use
2. which considers the tab being in download mode. My tab cant even do that.. when I hold the Power+home+volume down buttons, the screen goes black and then the same message comes back.
The second half of resolutions is with Kies. I didnt know about Kies earlier, so it doesnt have my tab details stored there.
I dont know if Kies has to have your tab stored to use the 'Firmware Upgrade and Initialisation' option, but I tried in anyway. When I write in my model, which is SM-T230NU, it shows that the model information I entered cannot be verified.
When I charged my tab a bit and connected to my computer, Kies isnt able to find it. It finds that something is connected, because it shows that it's connecting, but then it stops, then connects, and the same over and over.
Anyways, I have a Samsung galaxy Tab 4 7.0, model SM-T230NU, and I really want to try and repair it on my own before I give it to service.
Please dont hate on my stupidity, because I'm not really into technology..

SM-G531F Stuck on "firmware upgrade encountered an issue"

Hi,
I tried to follow the following instructions : http://forum.xda-developers.com/grand-prime/general/how-to-flash-stock-twrp-root-sm-g531f-t3286340
On the step : "9. Flash your firmware with Odin by using the AP button and hit start. Make sure repartition is NOT selected and untick auto reboot. This step takes some time" it got stucked and Failed.
I tried to reboot my phone to start over but I get the following message :
Firmware upgrade encountered an issue please select recovery mode in kies & try again.
This message is shown when I reboot, when I try to reach the stock recovery and when I try to reach the Download Mode.
With Kies, my device isn't connecting properly, it's looping "Connected" / "Disconnected" / "Connected" / "Disconnected" etc...
That's why I have two questions for you :
First one, is my phone totally blocked and I should buy a new one ?
If not, is there someone who could help me solve this issue ?
Thanks in advance
REFlash stock ?
Reflash with KIES put model and serial number of your phone and let the program load the firmware for your phone.
You get error at boot.img ?
