I am currently running on unrooted stock firmware 4.4.2 . I tried to downgrade to 4.3 by going to odin download mode . after it failed to download i tried to cancel and restart the phone by long pressing the power button but since then every time I get this message " firmware upgrade encountered an issue . please select recovery mode in kies and try again ! " and it fails to restart to the OS .
yes I know i can restart the phone by downloading a recovery file like CWM in download mode so after that it auto boot itself . but I dont want to root my phone again ! . I just want to restart back to my 4.4.2
You can't downgrade. So just flash 4.4.2 again.

Okay first post on this website.
4.4.2, i9505
So, as i am a compete android n00b, i rooted my s4 with the KingoRoot tool as i thought it was an easy method, later i found out ChainFire made an easy auto root .
After i rooted with the kingo my device would randomly reboot, when i called someone, when i locked my phone and random stages throughout the day.
After some reading online i found the solution was to re-flash my phone to stock fireware. so i downloaded odin, drivers, fireware from sam and tried to re-flash it. however my phone failed after aboot.mbn. I then got the unexpected error saying the phone had to be plugged into kies etc.
I then used "philz_touch_6.07.9-i9300.tar.md5" to get rid of the error message which worked. however the phone still would radnomly restart.
Again i turnrf to the web to find a solution for the radnom booting and found this -

1. The error that give u ODIN is coz you are trying to flash an older firmware that the one you have installed in your device.
2. You have to flash a STOCK recovery. Flash this file via ODIN in PDA/AP (like in the pic 1 attached): HERE.
3. Turn off your device manually when the process finish. Boot it into STOCK RECOVERY by pressing and holding Volume Up, Home and Power.
4. Take a look the CSC (pic 2). "Applied the CSC-code: ............" <- This is your REAL CSC. Turn off your device again manually and boot it into DOWNLOAD MODE by pressing and holding Volume Down, Home and Power.
5. Go to Sammobile and download the LATEST firmware for your device with correct CSC and flash it via ODIN.
6. About KNOX and reboots: Delete all KNOX reminds less "Lib = libknox_encryption.so".
7. Good luck
I can't go into recovery mode.

thanks for reply

Try the Kies recovery Option. You need the modelnumber and the imei. They are located under the battery i think. Maybe it restores the KitKat 4.4.4 Version. Good luck

If your Phone is Not Rooted & Still Official Recovery You are using Try to Recover with Samsung Kies Most of the issues it'll solve...
Did you Check before Flashing the Drivers & Proper AP/PDA section??
More important are you Flashing the Correct Firmware for your Device???
Yeah cant connect to kies back then but i found a trick to passe that fail in odin when upgrading to 5.0.1 : when it freezed i reopened the download mode and put the n910h root in odin and then it succeded and the phone rebooted and bootlooped i then could access the recovery mode , i wiped everything and the phone just worked but with the 4.4.4 .
I tried one more time with the same procedure but when i opened the recovery mode i just hit reboot and the phone now has a rooted lollipop 5.0.1 even though i got a fail in odin.
But i v got very strange stuff going on with my phone :
-First i checked my s/n and imei with phone info and it showed a N910C not N910H
-I dont have a csc code and when i want to check it with phone info this popup shows up :
Error type 2
android.util.AndroidException: Can't connect to activity manager is the system running?

I just dont find the csc code ..
A dm-verity verification failed shows up in the recovery mode
I was trying to flash a modem/bootloader for my phone after the initial flash of a new ROM and the Odin failed to flash the modem and my phone is now stuck in a
" Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & Try Again. "
However, Kies doesn't recognise my device (I use a custom ROM before the one I was trying to flash as well) and I cannot do anything to my phone right now. What do I do? I cannot even get it into recovery mode to restore my phone or try to flash the modem again.
I tried the Kies emergency recovery mode but my phone is not displayed there and it says my phone isn't compatible with Kies 3, so trying the normal samsung Kies right now.
Anyone with a recovery code for the Samsung N-910G?
Need some help please!
EDIT: Solved the problem by flashing the modem and bootloader again and works this time round.
