[Q] [HEL] Upgrade Firmware error

Hi all!
I have a rather major problem.
Today Kies told me that I have a new upgrade for the firmware of my Samsung Galay S i9000. It ran stuck rom with only a few apps installed. I said i want to upgrade so it started to check everything, done a backup of my contacts, started to download the firmware on my PC. So far everything is good.
After that the phone rebooted into an android working logo and said "Downloading..." it stayed like this for a while and after that Kies gave an error. Now the phone is stuck on this screen. Disconecting the device from the usb cable and pluging it back in does't do anything. Kies tries to connect to it but after a couple of minues gives an error that the device is not responding and I should try to rebot the device.
Any idea what to do? This is the work phone so I have to fix this.
Any help is appreciated.
EDIT: Fixed the problem with odin. I know I should get a warning for not searching first...but I panicked.

Easy stuff to fix, start by posting in the right section.

Connection problem with almost bricked phone

Hello
I have a big problem with my note. today i wanted to change rom from imilka's AOSP ICS [IMM76D/4.0.4] to newest version of rocket. after flashing Abbys 4.2 kernel I missclicked to reboot button, after reboot phone got stuck and starting screen "Galaxy Note" I can even enter recovery, but can't do anything because if I try to move up or down then cwm got rebooted. Download mode works also BUT... The main problem is that after that fail with flashing I can't connect to pc. I tried with another cable/another pc/ reinstalled drivers and kies and still pc can't recoginze this device. any solutions? thanks in advance

If while flashing with Odin you receive an error message or got stuck on factoryfs the only thing you can do is to go to Samsung Assistance..

:fingers-crossed:

You need to go to the at&t section on xda. This section is not for your phone.
Because you don't give any details about the Odin error, I can't help you further.
Most Odin errors can be solved by:
- Other cable
- Other usb port
- Other pc.

[Q] Samsung galaxy core 2 sm-g3555h updated failed via otp! cannot enter recovery!

my phone Samsung galaxy core 2 sm-g355h started updating! when getting in 95% of updating have stopped with the message error! so from now and then my phone restarts and try again to reinstall the update with the same result!! can't insert in recovery mode because it's starts again the upadating!! so my phone is dead and cannot do anything! even with odin i have tried to install a stock rom and cannot do it! it say's tha cannot open com port! althought odin see's the phone!! i have been dissapointed!! the only sollution that remain's to me is to pay a visit in samsung's dealer!! Do you have any idea?
:crying:

I had the same problem with this device... I had to flash stock rom with odin.
Just install kies and open it. Then reinstall usb driver through kies and then try flashing stock rom with odin, it will surely work. So good luck with that.

updating via ota isnt much good follow kies or stores

did you fix it? if yes how? I have the same problem

The best thing about samsung is Samsung Kies. There is a emergency firmware recover or something of that kind, I dont remember the name. Just install it and connect your device to it. It will try to recover your phone

go to a mobile center
