hi, I tried to upgrade to 4.3 using kies and to tell you the truth it was a waste of time. get odin 3.09 and the firmware from Samsung updates. I hope you know how to flash using odin. good luck.

I mean this sounds like an issue with Kies not your device.

If anything try and reinstall the firmware again, after rebooting your device.

Otherwise you might want to contact Samsung Support on the issue.

I had the same issue. persevere with it, it took me 7x and a different usb lead (was using a generic one at first) then on the 7th emergency firmware install and the 1st time of using a samsung usb lead that came with the phone it uploaded,

Previously it would fail at different intervals (ie 10% 23% 90% etc etc) but on the 7th time it did work !!
