Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 SGH-i497 OS Update Assistance



So basically I recently decided that it would be a BRILLIANT idea to upgrade my tablet to 4.4+ so I could use Pokemon GO on it, but lo and behold I have gotten to the point where I have hit a wall

As the title says, it's a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 SGH-i497 that used to run 4.1.4 I believe, and I no longer can get past the boot screen, I can get into Recovery mode and Download mode, and I have a recovery save on Kies but Kies refuses to connect to the tablet in it's state, it just continues to attempt to connect forever.

I guess my question would be this...
Is there an OS that is SGH-i497 compatible that I can attempt to use through ODIN, or alternatively, can someone point out a good recovery file I can use through an SD-Card so I can at least use my tablet again.

I will be monitoring for the next 8 hours before bed to answer any questions and provide any more information that I can, and thank you very very much ahead of time if you can help, I've been combing through forums for the past 3-4 hours and finally decided to make an account to make a post. Hopefully if I can get this resolved, I can help people if they have a similar problem in the future.
