Help Please. I plug my phone in and have Odin up but it doesnt come up with the yellow box or anything in the left corner so that i can send stuff to my phone. How do i get it to come up in the left conner?
You need to make sure that you have the Samsung USB drivers installed on your PC in order for Odin to detect the Phone. Additionally, I found that using Odin3 v1.00 is easiest.
where do i get that?
i got the samsung usb driver and tried again and i still dont get it on odin
I know that hen I downloaded the most recent version of Odin I was having issues with connectivity with my vibrant.
However, I reverted to using odin3 v1.00 instead of the latest and it seems to communicate perfectly for me.
- Use different ODIN versions.
- Reboot computer after installing drivers
- Reboot phone and then connect it to computer
- Try on another computer
- Try another port
- Try another USB(this works for very few)

yes i kno wrong section but ive search all galaxy s phone q & a sections and haven't found anything (yes im aware this is the dev section)
i used odin to flash eugene froyo rom
then i tried to flash back to jfd but odin failed
then i tried to flash ji6 and odin failed
after a couple of tries i restarted my pc and my phone
i plugged my phone in while download mode and my pc no longer recognizes it neither does odin.
i have:
reinstalled drivers
different pc's
different usb cables
and still no luck..and now my phone is stuck in download mode..any ideas.
update: my pc now calls it gadget serial not unknown device but it still isnt recognized/installing
update: since my pc went from recognizing it as a unknown device to a gadget serial device after a few tries device manager lets me install the drivers..
so now i can use odin..odd case solved
As the title says.... I am currently running ZenDroid 2.0.1. Before flashing this as always I start off fresh by Odining back to stock then proceed with whatever rom is to my pleasing that week... I have tried using different cables. I have also tried a PC and a MAC running Parallels(VM). I also tried Hiemdall on both. All still no luck. I have googled and all I find is the suggested above. I also tried getting into download mode in all ways I know possible to see if Odin might possibly recognize it. (Holding volume buttons while plugging into PC, Up+Power button, AIO reboot into DL mode, selecting Download from power menu and even using a JIG.
If anyone else has any other suggestions or if I missed something, please LMK??
Thanks in advance for taking the time to help

I think what you need is:
Latest odin v1.85
Latest Samsung drivers
And another usb cable to try.
the method you use to get in download mode should not make a difference - if you're in download mode - you're in download mode.
Does your computer recognize your phone when the phone is booted up? Can you connect and transfer files, etc.? If so - your USB cable and connectors are good, and your problem is likely related to not having the drivers installed.
if you're trying this on a new computer - one you haven't ODIN'd your phone from before, make sure you have the samsung drivers installed.
If you can't even transfer files, etc. - try a new USB cable - and NOT one that came with a charger (some of those are not actually USB cables - they can only charge your phone). You can get usb-to-microusb cables for like a buck online - places like monoprice or many others.
If you REALLY did try new USB cables, make sure the USB ports are clean - both on the phone and on the computer you're trying to hook to.
Thanks for your responses.
I found the solution to my problem. I decided to start from scratch. I deleted the drivers, AIO and Heimdall. Then I plugged in the phone just to see if Windows 7 sees it as an unknown device still. It was recognized but it was asking for drivers this time. So I proceeded to install JUST the driver and magically everything was working NORMAL again!!
Im not sure what may have caused this to happen. I flash my phone every other week so I found it kind of odd when this did occur.
Oh well.. ITS FIXED!! AND I CAN FLASH AGAIN!!

odin doesnt detect my phone
I dont know what to do! Odin doesn't detect my phone. i have tried different usb cable , different computer. no matter what i did odin doesnt recognize my phone in download mode. what should i do? Please somebody help. What driver should i install?
I've tried everything on this site to root and get cwm to install custom roms. I've done this with my inspire and infuse but the sgs2 is currently winning the battle.
I have the drivers installed and I know how to boot into download mode but for some reason odin will not work for me. I can't get the yellow bar to come up for me to install the pda file. I like the phone but not being able to flash roms is gonna suck.
If anyone could help that would be great. I've tried all the methods on here and no success. Thanks in advance.
Put your phone into download mode and connect to you computer, then go to to device management either through settings or by right clicking on my computer then properties.
There look through the USB devices on your computer, you should find this listed somewhere there
Code:
Samsung Mobile USB CDC Composit Device
If the driver is set up correctly.
If you can't find the above then uninstall any thing that is any kind of a Samsung mobile device, unplug your phone and uninstall and reinstall Samsung kies.
If you do find the above, unplug your phone, make sure the version of Odin you have is 1.82 or higher.
Then do the following in the exact order
1. Reboot your computer
2. Start Odin
3. Put your phone into download mode and connect to your computer - and hopefully within 10 to 15 seconds Odin should recognize your phone

This should fix the problem:
Get the Samsung Unified USB driver here: http://api.viglink.com/api/click?for...13196871580881
Be sure to uninstall kies if it's installed and uninstall any other samsung usb driver.
Then reboot windows before installing the new unified samsung drivers.
After installation of the new usb drivers reboot windows before connecting the usb cable into the phone.
Plugging in the original samsung usb cable into a different usb port in the
back of the computer is also a good thing to try as Dungeon47 was saying.
Good Luck!
Make sure you are using a USB directly connected to your motherboard. Make sure you are using an official Samsung or Blackberry micro USB cable. If that doesn't help, try another port.
Ok thanks i'm still in the process of trying and doing what y'all suggested. I will let y'all know if it works.
Well I got superuser now but still unsuccessful in flashing rom.
Says installation aborted. Ill try later but thanks for helping out.
Did you try starting Odin first, and plugging your phone in afterwards? That hung me up for a little bit. (I'm assuming you reinstalled Kies as suggested).

Yeah I got root but when I try to flash a rom I'm unsuccessful. Trial and error. Ill get it.
When simply powered on, Odin will recognize my tab (10.1 WiFi Only 7510). But will not recognize in DL mode... grrrrr. Any suggestions?
Have you tried to uninstall and reinstall the drivers on the PC?
Yes, I did. Reinstalling the drivers did not work. I tested with USB debug off, this did nothing in Odin either.

Of course it wouldn't; toggling a USB debug setting on the device while booted into it's operating system will have no affect on how the device is going to work in download mode as download mode is completely independent from the operating system itself. It's like comparing a PC's BIOS to an installation of Windows or Linux on the PC.
Your issues with Odin and download mode are most likely on the PC side and NOT on the tablet side. The Samsung drivers are very temperamental. Sometimes they don't play well with other devices and sometimes they don't work well with certain chipsets or USB controllers. My suggestion is try different USB ports, avoid using USB HUBs and try reinstalling drivers as well as disabling antivirus on the PC temporarily.
It may even be advantageous to have device manager open while you connect the tab in download mode to see how the PC is recognizing it. The tab should never be connected while you're attempting to get into download mode, leave it disconnected and have Odin fired up and prepped until you get the tab in download mode. Seeing how device manager picks it up might help diagnose driver issues.
same problem, varios computers
Hello everyone! I also have this issue whereas my gt-p7500 dont even exists to the system in download mode. I tryed 3 computers so far, even on linux in download mode heimdall wont recognize the tablet. what I have done so far:
(on 1st pc win7)
- installed kies, and updated to latest version. On normal mode the tablet gets recognized, all drivers install throught the end, kies works fine, managing folders and files as storage device also works fine.
- turned on usb debugging, and connected to pc again. A new driver MPC is installed, kies still works, pc communication also.
- rebooted the device in download mode, and after this conected again to the pc. Nothing new is detected.
-- Odin can see the device on normal mode, and if its turned off (charge mode) but on download mode nothing happens.
(on 2nd pc, win 7)
- didnt install kies, only samsung drivers
- inserted the tablet in 3 ways on the cpter, normal node, normal mode with debugging on, and download mode to all new devices and drivers to be detected.
- odin dont work on download mode, but can see the tablet as the example above, normal mode, normal mode with debug on and turned off (charge mode)
(3rd pc, debian 64)
- installed heimdall via git, latest package. Also wont detect the device on download mode, whereas it can see the tablet on normal mode.
on 3 pcs, tryed ALL usb ports, tryied openning odin first, and then connecting the device, tryed conecting the device first and then openning odin... nothing works while in download mode.
also Iv reseted the device to factory defaults to test, nothing changed.
On the first pc iv also tryed downloading older drivers versions from samsung, spreaded all over xda foruns on other threads. the oldest version Iv tryed was 1.4.x,
Please helpe me on this, cant figure out how to get the device detected in download mode on the pc... getting very annoyed on this already, and tryed all the possibilities I could imagine so far.
Are you using a laptop? Bcz pc can iddntify. I also had same problem with my laptop. It was recognizinging it as media device but not in download mode. So try to cknnect it to the CPU of the Pc
HIT THANKS WHENEVER POSSIBLE OR IF I HELPED YOU...
Not necessarily computer related, past experience for me has shown that not all versions of Odin work with this tab......the newer versions are NOT so good
Try this version uploaded and these drivers - try odin first if you are sure of your drivers, otherwise install the drivers first
Let us know how you go....

Hi
I had the same issue and those files solved it
Thank you
Samsung Galaxy TAB P1000(Ordin detection in DOWNLOAD MODE)
Initially google SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_x86 . Download the file in your pc or laptop and install it. Then switch-off the tab and Press power and Volume down button simultaneously to get into the download mode. This time Samsung tab would be detected in the Ordin.
Hi I have galaxy tab 10.1 GT P7510, Odin don't recognize
lemme start by saying what i did that caused the problem
i installed PFittech 1.0.4 and everything was moving fine untill touchwiz began FCing alot. i dont use touchwiz anyway (as i had set Apex to default) so i thought i could remove it safely without any reprocussions. i used titanium backup to do a force uninstall but the phone rebooted into a black screen. I cannot get into recovery move at all so i tried to reflash the kernel in hopes that my recovery would be fixed.. I got into download mode just fine but neither odin or windows can connect to my phone
i really need help because nothing from the other posts related to this topic is working, i followed a few other posts and nothing is making odin pick up my device in download mode
Stuff to try when Odin doesn't work:-
*Must run Odin as administrator in Windoze.
*Ensure Kies & it's processes aren't running in Windoze task manager. Kill them if they are.
*Try different USB ports; you must be using a 'powered' or mainboard port.
*Try different USB cables (particularly the cable that came with the phone if you're not using it now)
*Try different versions of Odin (search on here/Google)
*Uninstall Kies, reboot, redownload & reinstall it, reboot, try the flash again. Also run Windoze Update.
And if all this fails, try a different PC. If it doesn't work first try on the other PC, go through the above steps on that PC as well.

dont have another pc available so im stuck with this one, tried other USB cables, tried running odin as administrator, tried uninstalling n reinstalling kies, tried another version of odin (1.87)
nothing is working -_-
i should mention that when i attempt to boot normally, the PC is able to discover the drivers and connect to the device. even MTP connects and im able to view the contents of my phone's memory (for some reason, its all 0MB in size)
based on my readings, havent heard anyone having my specific symptoms for my phone.. im getting more and more depressed because i use my phone so much and now that its down and i cant fix it.. just feeling sad :crying:
and all this because i tried to uninstall touchwiz.. :crying:
ok this is what i will try doing
since my PC recognizes my phone only when it boots normally, i will try to flash a recovery image by dropping it on my SD card, then flashing it using droid explorer's "flash recovery image" option - REALLY hope this works
EDIT
nope - not working, even after flashing using droid explorer phone reboots into black screen, no recovery, no nothing..
i recently tried odin3 v 3.04 and odin still doesnt detect my phone in download mode.. drivers are still saying "unknown device" when i boot into download mode.. ive uninstalled and reinstalled and restarted both pc and phone so many times i just feel helpless right now.. like i should just give up and buy a new phone
Need this question answered
does odin pic up the ID:COM on a device whether it is in download mode or not? based on what i read here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-1484607.htm
odin is capable of picking up on an ID:COM even if the device isnt in download mode - in my case, odin isnt picking it up at all nd as is, windows is still able to pick up my device if i boot it normally and load MTP and the correct drivers
24 hours now since problem occured and i have made no progress whatsoever.. feeling like giving up.. dont know what to do, and dont think anyone can help me anymore -_-
After 26 hrs of talking to myself and dedication - i finally solved my problem.. i decided to update my windows base and cleared the registry on all installations and all current associated drivers, reinstalled kies, updated new drivers and when connected my phone which was in download mode my phone connected as a "gadget serial" device.. with this - odin was able to pick up on my phone and i flashed a new kernel + recovery.. with that flashed back my rom and bam - back to status

Just an observation... isn't this more or less what MistahBungle said to do in his post in his last suggestion? (short of clearing the registry entries, which is a good idea as well.)

honestly, i tried everything he suggested, but i suppose without the windows update + updating the USB drivers through kies (not download them by themself) - i possibly wouldnt have been successful. i read a tutorial that told me that kies could put my phone into download mode for an update - so what i did was clear registry, uninstall all current drivers and manually made kies reinstall them.. then after that, connected my phone while it was on (with the screen still blank) and selected the option to peform firmware update from kies (which put my phone into download mode) from there, when my phone got into download mode the new drivers loaded up and thats when odin was able to connect
in my situation, the constant plugging out and plugging in and hoping windows by itself could pick up the drivers never helped at all.. few people stated that i didnt need kies and that it interferes with it so what i did was only install the drivers and got rid of kies.. however in my case if not for kies i wouldnt have been able to connect to odin
