Download Kies. It'll install the drivers needed.

tried that, when it's in normal mode it gets reconised but as soon as i put it in download mode / flash mode, it says device unknown
Connect phone to KIES let KIES find phone .
Turn off phone and PC
Reboot and put phone in USB mass storage mode and connect with USB cable let PC find and install drivers .
Flashing turn KIES OFF
Open ODIN load required file in correct section
Put phone to download mode and read the instructions on the first download window .
Connect Samsung USB cable to a mainboard USB port .
You should now have yellow block showing in ODIN .

Hello everyone,
I've searched for a solution over the forum but I didn't find any solution..
So my problem is that I can't use Odin because windows doesn't recognize my phone on Download mode.
I have the drivers installed, Kies and windows recognize my GS2 without problems.
I've tried with different cable, different USB port, uninstall/reinstall drivers many times, from Kies or from samsung web site.
I just have no idea why in download mode windows doesn't use the installed drivers..
Help?
Thanks!
Did you try in a different PC?
I am sure driver is the only cause. Perhaps you can try following. Install Kies, then connect phone once and check if Kies detects your phone
Which version of Windows are you using? I am using Windows 7 and its working fine. I did root yesterday and Windows detected drivers and also it had to download from net for some reason. In the end it did work
USB cable to main board connection .
Reboot phone turn USB debugging off .
Set USB to Mass storage mode .
Connect cable and let Windows find USB drivers .

Did you terminate every Kies process before opening Odin?
Hello,
Thanks for the answers.
I'm running on windows 7 64. But it didn't try on another pc.
Windows does install drivers and recognize my phone in USB to Mass storage mode.
But still not recognize it in download mode and yes I've terminated every Kies process.
I know that in Download mode windows install some new/different (?) drivers. When I'm on download mode, windows fails to install driver as it's an "unknown device". Is there a way to install those drivers manually?
Hello,
Un-install Kies, reboot system, reinstall kies.
Still not work. After reboot and reinstalling Kies my phone was recognized, but in download mode there is still nothing.
If windows has USB drivers then download mode works .
Is USB debugging turned off .
Reboot phone
Enter download mode follow instructions on download mode screen .
Open Odin select files to flash
Connect Samsung USB cable to mainboard port .
Hit start on Odin .
jje
USB debugging is off.
But as windows don't recognize the device, Odin can't detect it in download mode.
It's really weird

Ok, I manage to get this working.
I did this:
-I have unplugged all the USB on my motherboard, I've uninstalled all the "Universal Serial Bus controllers" (to acces type devmgmt.msc in windows start menu)
-Turn off the PC and unplugged the power supply. Waiting like 3 minutes.
-Replug the power supply and boot.
-Replug all my USB, windows reinstalling everything.
-Plug my phone in download mode and windows finally installed the drivers and Odin detect it !
So if someone have a unknown device issue with a code 43, please try this.
Thanks for your time and answers.
Disabling the "unknown device" and then disconnecting and reconnecting my phone worked for me.
Run Kies as Administrator, Install Drivers
This is what worked for me. Kies said the Drivers were installed without Administrator but nothing worked

Close Kies from the system tray.
It is closed but again same problem
Are you using a HTC or Nokia usb cable?
1. use the original cable
2. kill all kies* pocesses in task manager
3. kill/shutdown all other htc/nokia/whatsoever software if present on your PC
4. try different USB plug (my friend had such problem with odin)
5. try different PC ;-)
should work...
Hi, I have big problem with my phone. First, it is not problem with MTP driver! My computer dont recognize connected phone. When I connect phone to PC, phone start recharging and Initializing MTP, but PC doesnt do *TDN* sound. When I connect flash disk trough USB OTG to my phone - it work. Other Samsung connect to my PC works good. I can't connect phone in "USB mass storage" - doesn't work. So I think, it is software problem in phone.
I tried:
Instaling a lot of roms (only in CWM recovery), pull up battery for a few minutes, format memories, restore my efs file ( I had copy efs file), manualy instal kernel, tried USB debugging ON/OFF, instal manualy MTP driver, uninstal/instal kies
Sorry for my english, isn't good
Reads like you do not have Kies installed and no USB drivers for the phone .
If that does not work clean USB port only connect to a mainboard USB port .
Fails = service centre .
Restore to stock first and reset custom rom counter or it will be no longer under warranty .
jje
try with other pc to make sure is your phone problem..
or try samsung kies air if you using a laptop..
i install kies and get all the driver to enable me connect usb storage
First of all you MUST have samsung Kies just for the drivers of your phone.
Try install kies...
No need to install the complete package if you only need to use the phone as a mass storage device here is the link to download drivers directly

I'd question that this is a "direct" link. I've tried clicking just about every link on the page and all I can get it to download is some other bloatware/adware. There doesn't seem to be a working link to the Samsung USB driver on this page

Galaxy S3 not being recognized in odin in download mode
Could someone please assist.
My rooted Galaxy S3 phone (FW v4.1.2) is stuck at the Samsung startup screen after installing a font app from the app store
To resolve I have tried:
1. The recovery screen - doing a factory reset and reboot
2.. Reflash through ODIN.
I can get get the phone into download mode but ODIN will not recognize the phone in Download mode (Funny that phone is recognised by Odin at the stuck Samsung boot screen)
- I have unistalled and reinstalled KIES and USB drivers
- I am using the stock USB cable
- Tried different USB ports on computer
- Tried on different computers
The problem may be Windows driver related. Because phone gets stuck at the Samsung startup screen, all processes of driver installation do not conclude successful. "MTP USB Device" shows error in Windows Device manager, USB composite deivce.
Uninstalled and reinstalled these a couple of times without success.
Please assist
Issues with usb on s3
Actually fixed my own Question....
My phone was in download mode and was not being recognized by my computer my windows 7 computer. I pressed the usb icon, where a box popped up saying that there was an unknown device. You could find this in device manager.
I then went to device manager to update the driver instead of pointing the device directly to the driver when i clicked browse my computer for software then it shows a location and option to let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer then a box pops up showing model above that there is a little check box uncheck that two boxes will appear with manufacturer and model
Scroll samsung electronics and model samsung mobile composite device that is what you want to update the driver to...
I pulled the battery then re-entered download mode and windows to over installing the rest now it works fine. I would attach images but it will not let me for some reason. if anyone can help with that I will do it later.
THIS COULD POSSIBLY help with devices not being found on computers in bootloader or just on rom loaded and running..

Hey guys, i know it's a bit late now, but i had exactly the same problem with my gt-i9300 (got stuck on samsung splash screen and odin didn't recognize it in download mode) and just realised that everytime, i connected my phone to my PC in download mode, a message would appear that "Gadget Device" (or something like that) was connected. Then i searched in my device manager for the name of it (i found it under USB-Devices) and uninstalled the driver of it. As i connected it again with odin started it would install the driver automatically and *swoosh* odin recognized it.
A year and some later after the last post and I seem to be having this problem as well... I believe it was due to a bad flash at very low battery level which ended up in encryption failure ya da da, factory reset, clear/format everything and flash custom rom from SD because any other connection would not work.... then managed to get windows (many flavors inc. 7, 8 and 10) to connect as MTP or in USB debugging mode but Odin mode (download) just won't do anything... i put the phone in DL mode, nothing happens, no windows connection sounds, no changes in devices manager, even when searching for new hardware. I'd be very interested to know if anyone has had anything like that. I'd really like to flash stock to go back to a custom rom, flash twrp to replace cwm but all seems to no avail if i can't get a connection while in DL mode.
tried to install adb fastboot but also nada since no connection is being made.... might be something with DL mode gone awry with the bad flash... long story but OTA update from current ROM decided on its own to push update even though battery was at 5% and no user interaction ever happened...
we'll see what happens...

Are you using the original Samsung USB cable when the phone is in download mode?

Driver issue. Find the correct drivers.
Beamed in by telepathy.
Hi all
I'm trying to root my UK-purchased i9300 using the cf-root guide here: http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/articles/403624/20121110/root-galaxy-s3-i9300-cfroot-official-jellybean.htm
My phone is running the OTA 4.1.1 which came down recently
I have installed the Samsung USB drivers from the above URL, which comes up as "Samsung USB Driver for Mobile Phones v1.3.850.0".
When I hook the phone up with USB debugging mode enabled, Windows 7 picks it up as a mass storage device only. No virtual com ports are configured which I suspect is why ODIN does not detect anything.
Could someone help me out please?
Thanks
Okay so installing the proper KIES + drivers now seems happier. Bear this in mind folks.
edit: Happier as in if the phone is booted up ODIN can now connect to it..
However, it's still not working when the phone is in Download mode.

Hi
I had a similar issue which seemed to resolve by starting the ODIN program first and then connecting the phone to the PC in download mode and then it was detected

Thanks, that doesn't work for me. I have a feeling it's this specific computer which is causing the issue so I will try another one this evening.
Using zadig.exe, it does not show the device at all when in download mode, but shows it fine in normal mode.
Had no problems with using a different machine. This problem was specific to one computer. Got to love Windows quirky USB sometimes.
Thanks for your replies folks.
