@OP
in short u are f****d.!
try rooting it with super one click or zroot(somethinng like that).
Yo.. let me explain something.
When i rooted and downgraded the kernel it used the old ADB drivers.
When i upgraded it required the new ADB drivers.
Maybe that is your issue.
flash the generic SE firmware with flashTool. It should work...
turn off phone - take out battery - press back key - insert usb - insert battery.
That should do the trick. Then Flashtool to stock
I probably have used this method 50 times the past 2 days trying to upgrade to GB. Always flashes ok but phone wont boot. Finally gave up and stayed with 2.1 and upgraded to MIUI. So it aint dead yet, just injured LOL
2 different computers won't recognize the phone, I can't flash with flashtool! It goes into flag mode but flashtooldoesnt recognize the phone. Somebody know how to manually install drivers?

Which OS are you using? Try uninstal it, reboot, install then plug your phone to pc if your pc still will not able to recognize phone so you have to show the path to them..most of them are in Program Files/LG Electronics ....

1. is your phone rooted? if yes, i believe kies cannot detect rooted phone
2. definitely not the problem of XP, i have no problem with my XP, one possibility could be your XP something corrupted, suggest you try on other pc.
Kies can detects rooted phones so that is not an issue.
You could put your phone in Download mode, and connect it to your pc and then run odin. If Odin detects it then it is not your drivers. If Odin cannot find a phone then obviously there is an issue with the drivers.(btw you dont have to do anything in odin for it to find it)

It wont find it all..
But as said the problem is that i dont have drivers at all on my computer for my phone, still i have latest update of kies..
Then do waht MistahBungle says. If your drivers arent installed kies is doing something wrong. Uninstall kies, delete the entire remaining Kies folder from program files, Clean up your registry and reboot your pc.
Once you have done that, Redownload Kies from the samsung website, make sure its the windows 32 bit(x86) version(as im guessing you are running that as XP) and install it.
Once it is installed. Reboot your computer. Turn your phone on and make sure USB debugging is completely turned off and then plug the phone in to your pc.
MistahBungle said:
Given you say you've tried *everything*, if it were me, I'd try a different PC. If it still doesn't work, user error; probably something really simply we're missing/you're not doing. Impossible to say what it is as we're not there with you looking over your shoulder.
Actually, I saw a thread on here last week, someone had tried everything like you & they fixed it by uninstalling Kies, removing Kies registry entries, rebooting, downloading/installing a fresh copy of Kies (for the drivers), running Windoze Update, rebooting. Fixed. Maybe try this before another PC.
You also must check Windoze Task Manager & kill Kies/any associated processes. You only want the drivers, not Kies/it's processes running when you use Odin.

[Q] Flashtool doesn't recognize my phone as rooted device

Hi..
As it says, I was trying to unlock bootloader and turned out that Flashtool doesn't recognize my phone as rooted device at all, so why is that? I made sure that my phone is updated to the latest stock ROM, baseband..everything. And root works since I can access system files from root explorer (SU app is installed also)..I'm on Win8 and my phone was rooted using Flashtool 0.8.5 a long time ago..Any ideas?
I forgot to mention that "root" button on Flashtool is also grayed out.
Anyone?
have you tried latest flashtool ? windows 8 is new system with different structure like w7 or vista. however I have installed latest flashtool with PC Compaion on laptop with windows 8 and runs good. // the only think that I used there is flashing diferent kernels so I dont know if "root" button works or not.//
Yes I'm using the latest version with PC companion installed..
at my first try to flash I had several problems. One seemed to be caused by some kind of "wrong" root, means i could use all kinds of root apps correctly, but couldnt flash kernels etc... however, i used superoneclick and nothing changed.
As it didnt work, i repaired software via pccompanion and rooted with newest fllashtool (0.9) and all worked. I remember it because it nearly got me crying because i followed every step exactly.
