I know this is a beginners mistake.. I admit that! I am hoping someone can help me.
I was using the cyanogen mod wiki page to install a Cyanogenmod recovery. Command prompt on PC said it was successful, but when I tried to boot into recovery, I got this error: Firmware has encountered an issue please connect to kies. I have used that wiki once before to flash my Skyrocket
My phone is the Samsung Note SGH-I717 I just bought it yesterday, I am very very upset!
So far I have not messed with flashing anything else, Tried to connect to kies vie firmware update, however it said the SGH-I717 does not support initializing. I immediately turned to here.
My phone does not boot into recovery, only Odin mode with the error message. On the top it says:
Odin Mode
Custom Binary Download: Yes (1 count)
Current Binary: Custom
I will do anything to have my phone fixed, Please help me! I admit my mistake.
I was trying to install an Official Stock Samsung Galaxy S4 GT-I9505 firmware, from SAMMOBILE Link for the firmware I tried to use: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=26516. So while flashing it with ODIN, I think it just randomly disconnected, but that just bricked my phone. I don't know whether it is a soft brick or a hard brick, but this is what happens to my phone, every time I turn on my phone whether it's done normally, the download mode or recovery mode method I will be stuck on that screen.
So now I typed in the error on Google to see how it can be fixed. Link to the method to fix the error: http://androidcentral.us/2013/09/how-to-fix-firmware-upgrade-encountered-an-issue-on-kies/
Firstly, my computer (running Windows 7 ULTIMATE 64-BIT) can detect my phone, saying the drivers have been installed successfully. However KIES doesn't detect mine. Anyways I still try to do this method where I have to go to Tools -> Firmware Upgrade and Initialization on KIES. I type in my model name: GT-I9505, that works, now I have to do my S/N or Serial Number: RF1DXXXXXXX, so when I press OK it says GT-I9505 doesn't support 'Intialising', so I am stuck have no idea what to do.
Also, while flashing I tried repartition my S4, to remove all of the stuff I had, none important, except my music which I transferred to my PC. Solved, just flashed Official firmware, it now works.
Just separately repartitioned my S4, it works but S4 is now stuck on boot loop, so have to flash a 4.4.2 Official Firmware.

Hi,
Can you get into recovery?
Can you still see your phone in odin?
If so , disable kies (task manager) and try to flash the firmware again.
Wipe data and cache before and after flashing firmware.
hey guys im sorry if i post this on the wrong section but i followed this tutorial: droidviews(dot)com/root-galaxy-s6-and-s6-edge-on-android-6-0-1-marshmallow-update/ to root my s6 edge+ and it went black... after some research i found out the tutorial wasnt for my device(SM-G2928F) so i flashed it with cf-autoroot and then it boot looped for like an hour. I downloaded the original greek firmware from sammobile but it brings me up this error: SECURE CHECK FAIL : (BOOTLOADER).. any help?
UPDATE: changed the port and run Odin as admin now it says: SECURE CHECK FAIL : (RADIO) Odin log: pastebin(dot)com/4w1943HF
UPDATE: now when I exit recovery mode it doesnt start and tells me: An error has occured while updating the device software. Use the Emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC software.(I can still go into recovery mode)
Let me check you have flashed a firmware not for your device with odin or just a zip? First I would try flashing the most recent firmware you can find for your device with odin, some bootloaders can't be downgraded. If that doesn't work then the emergency firmware recovery will work, I've used kies emergency firmware a few times.
Hopefully someone with your device will point you in the right direction if you are stuck
I flashed a firmware not for my device but I found a solution on another XDA post thank you
After trying to install a custom firmware with TWRP, I ran into a soft brick. My device boots up and can go into download mode. I've tried every possible method to unbrick it such as; Kies, Smart Switch, and Odin
None of these have seemed to work. I always get an error, even in Odin. It's always stuck on "Setup Connection"
Can someone please point me in the right direction?
