I just started with odin to root for my first time, and droidstyle's guide says that "box in left hand corner of odin will say PASS". Which left hand corner? The bottom left with the box titled Message? All that box is telling me right after I pressed Start is <OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 0). Is this the equivalent of PASS, or do I need to try pressing Start again?
nevermind
just watched a video with some odin screen capture and can now see that odin never detected my device in the first place. not sure why, but at least now i know the issue. i am determined to make this work!
ETA: I now think I have an older version of Odin. What is the latest version that I should be using for windows 7? Mine says v1.3, but I just found v1.83. The link from droidstyles guide was for the older version.
i give up just for the night. I will come back to it some time tomorrow. For whatever reason, Odin is not finding my phone when I connect it and put it in download mode. I have the newer v1.83 now and that didn't change anything. is my pc somehow blocking it, maybe? idk.
ETA: another thought, could it be my usb cable? I no longer have a functional stock usb cable, I have replaced it with a belkin miniusb data/charger cable, which has worked fine for data and transferring files and such, until now. could that be it?
Sounds like you either do not have your phone in download mode or you don't have the proper Samsung drivers installed on your computer. Download mode should have the triangle.

download mode
I do have the triangle, that is not the problem. The problem is that Odin does not recognize that my phone is plugged in. My pc makes the audible noise that something has been plugged in, but from Odin I get nothing. I see on the videos I watched that the box in the upper left in Odin should turn yellow, but mine does not.
Sounds like it is either a driver issue or a non OEM cable issue. First uninstall and reinstall all Samsung drivers, if that doesn't fix it order a new cable from Samsung.

I reinstalled the usb driver and that allowed odin to find my device, but then after selecting my rom and pit files and pressing start a couple of windows popped up that just had the file directory for odin next to a caution type symbol with 'ok' the only option available to click, then after doing that in the two unexpected windows odin now displays

is is not doing anything, my phone is still in download mode, and the start and reset buttons on odin are greyed out. what happened? do I have a bad version of odin? I am using v1.83. Did it do anything to my phone yet, is it in limbo, can I unplug my phone, should I start over? HELP!
ETA: I unplugged phone, closed odin, dowloaded it again from a different source, started over, now seems to be working fine. whatever. appears to be identical to the one I was just using.
Odin 1.3 is the version we all use for this phone. 1.8x might work but I haven't tried it.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using xda premium
It worked just fine. I watched some videos of others showing how to root and they all were using v1.8x, but I don't think Odin was my problem from the get go, it was my drivers.
I figured it was a driver issue.

Odin can be a pain in the ass. Glad you got it working.
If you want to remove one more variable for the future you can get a usb cable +charger for $2.50 shipped. I have ended up buying so many of these it's almost dumb since I always manage to lose them.

I was updating my Samsung Galaxy SII i777 to 4.0.4 with kies, but I have some issues and it says that i should do an emergency recovery and after several tryings it worked but it erase all the info in the phone... even the unlocked code... so now it doesn't read my sim card. I was looking for the solution and a lot of programs were recomended, i instaled one for unlocking and it asked me for root it and for some busybox that didn't worked either because the phone wasn't rooted so theeeeen i try to root it by following some steps with Odin 1.85 and a link that i should extract later with the odin... it seems it was an old link? because in the steps it says "I'll take 10 seconds to be done" and it passed 6 hours and nothing.... so I unplugged the USB cable and the phone continued working normally but still couldn't read my sim card... so I searched for moooooore help and i downloaded link that was 335mb and try it again... It was working, a blue bar was advancing in the phone's screen with all the rest of the "downloading please bla bla" but it continued that way (the bar kept the same size) and it passed 5 hours... so I unpluuged... and removed the battery.. and then search more, downloaded Odin 3.7, put the battery back and a emergency sign appeared with an "Firmware upgrade encountered and issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again" so i open kies and nothing... it didn't recognized the phone... even clicking in troubleshoot connection (several times and nothing) so I tried the Odin's new version and after 20 minutes a big FAILED sign appears and all this info:

BTW I buy the phone on ebay in January 2012, and the seller give it to me unlocked... so i don't have the unlocked code either.... he's not answering me... I tryed all this for not buying a new code..
Had the same issue dealing with kies, twice with my own devices, and at least 3 or 4 on friends'. Get into download mode, head to the stickies, use the most up to date odin for return to stock. Might take a try or two, but it'll take. Priority is making sure you have the most current material.

I've disabled kies from the task manager. Even changed the cable and computer. Tried reinstalling kies/rebooting etc. Nothing seems to work.
Help please
Also I have the international version of the s2 if that makes any difference.
It's probably something really obvious/simple that's not happening here. Com port issue says it's an issue with the USB ports on the PC you're using. I suggest you find one of the many 'Odin won't work' threads we have on here every week; there's a set of troubleshooting steps you need to try, I suggest you find that list of steps & keep trying them.

I actually found another cable and tried it earlier. Surprisingly, Odin worked...sort of, it moved further ahead of the steps. Though I couldn't recall what it said, and after that one time where it got further ahead in Odin. The process has actually been stuck at Setup Connection .
WOOHOO
After a 6 hour battle. I finally got this stubborn computer and phone to work together. It turns out that in order for it to work was to do the following:
1. Rebooting the phone back into download mode
2. Plug it into a fresh port/fresh computer
3. Open Odin
4. Plug in your phone.
5. Watch the magic happen before your eyes (My actual installation only took 2:49)
The stock rom has been completely installed. Now I'm just waiting for the samsung logo to disappear and finally turn on. I hope this doesn't get stuck as well....
After going into recovery mode and wiping out all of my data. I was able to turn on my phone completely after only 30 seconds of loading. Thanks for reading and I hope these tips will help someone in the future who was in the same position as I was.
Hi,
I've somehow managed to brick my rooted S5830i while flashing a ROM onto it. I basically now want to get the phone back to the state it was in before attempting to flash it as I performed a backup beforehand.
I can't boot it into recovery, but I can into Download mode. I've been trying to use Odin3 v1.84 & 1.85 with a simple file installation, but when it does actually recognize the phone via the USB port (which is very temperamental) the installation gets stuck on "<ID:0/15> setupConnection". I've left it for 10+minutes without any luck.
Does anyone has any ideas where I can go from here? I've searched through this forum and others ones, but I can't find anyone else who's had this exact same issue.
I have to admit I am fairly new to all this, but surely if I can somehow get into recoverymode, where I have ClockworkMod installed, I can then easily perform a restore of my previous settings which i backed up on the SD card before I flashed the phone?
Any help would be great!
Cheers.

Have you checked your usb drivers which must be properly installed?
because if they are not properly installed then these connection problems occur.
so reinstall usb drivers then perform.

Hi,
Loaded Samsung drivers from this link:-
http://http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=11633550
Which I got from this tutorial on how to unbrick my Ace which is stuck on Samsung logo screen:-
http://http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1840645
Installed drivers on Windows 8, rebooted, put Ace into Odin link ready for download, connected via usb, PC reported error USB device not recognised, tried three different USB ports on PC, shows as unknown device.
Checked via control panel, Samsung drivers were installed.
Any ideas how I can sort out Samsung drivers on a Windows 8 PC
Finally got PC to recognise my ACEi which it recognised as a modem, which was good enough to let me follow the unbrick tutorial above and all worked, now have my ACEi working again.
Only real change I made was to use a different phone to USB cable
One unexpected big plus was that as well as getting the phone usable (would boot) it also restored my lost IMEI number so I can make calls etc. :victory: the IEMI number must have been on the phone somewhere as I have checked it and it is the one the phone came with.
I lost my IMEI number when I loaded the Jellyblast ROM and I did not do a backup first
I now have a fully working phone but want to load a different ROM.
Having learnt a lesson I have done a backup using CWM.
I want to protect my IEMI which I thought you could do by making a copy of the efs folder, however when I look in the efs folder it is empty!
Any idea on why my efs folder may be empty and how I can protect myself by making a backup of my IEMI that can be restored if it gets lost again after loading a new ROM?

Hey there everyone
I'd be thankfull of someone could bring me some help with this problem. My phone has gone throw many shutdowns, in which somehow, the problem always solved itself, being that I left it charging the whole night, or that I tryed it out after a few days.
I own a Samsung Galaxy Y Pro since a couple of years now, and last night, while I was checking on my WhatsApp, it turned off itself. It usually happens, and annoys me, but turning it on again solves it... most of the times.
Now it didn't want to fully start. It got stuck at the black screen with the Samsung typography. I tryed to do a factory reset, and it only worsened the trouble. It froze at
-- Wiping dat...
Formating /data.
I left it like that a couple of hourse with no progress. I tryed to turn on the phone normally, but now it always takes me to that menu. I'm stuck, and it's the only way I can communicate with my family, so I beg someone of you to help me out, please.
I don't have any knowledge about Odin or sorts, nor programs to deal with the problem. So I'd ask if someone could explain me step by step what to do (or direct me to the thread where the troubleshooting is explained).
If you need some answers about my phone to understand the situation, I'll answer happily.
Thanks for reading this, and hope you have a nice day <3
have you rooted your phone?
if not, you may have to flash new stock rom from odin..
first you have to download stock rom base on you country here http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/1/
then you have to download odin here https://mega.co.nz/#!UdRRyCAT!H4FyVxYynNWvXqRNmnpMGQRCP-dG3uykgP2pT4rh8Ek
for detail you can watch this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HVLyjeqPtn0

Hey there and thanks for answering!
My phone won't turn on normally, so I can't get the Triangle Away nor sync it with Odin. If I plug the USB to my phone at my computer, Odin won't recognize it neither. Any idea of what to do?
Have you installed latest driver? http://goo.gl/jzrFmO
Have you put your phone into download mode?
Hey there broke920!
Yes, the phone is now on downlaod mode, and the drivers you gave me made Odin regonize my phone (thank you!). How should I proceed?
You need to do this:
1) unzip rom file to obtain tar/tar.md5 file
2) click on PDA and select tar/tar.md5 file
3) click on START
It's throwing me this error.

I am using Odin v3.07 and the rom that konohanz posted up there.
I don't know if this could help, but this is on the downloading screen on my phone.
PRODUCT NAME: GT-B5510L
CUSTOM BIN DOWN: NO (0 counts)
CURRENT BIN: SAMSUNG OFFICIAL.
Also, now when trying to access the phone normally, it shows an icon of an android, a box, and an arrow. Please help me out
Try with another version of Odin like 1.85 or 3.09 and disable antivirus software.
Both of them throw me the same error.
I may add that I think I messed up with the PIN. So maybe if I get that right, it will work out.
if may i suggest you try this one :
1. download latest philz recovery here https://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/i9300/philz_touch_6.48.4-i9300.tar.md5/
2. make your phone to download mode
3. plug device then open odin you had
4. choose pda and open philz_touch_6.48.4-i9300.tar.md5
5. click start
if work you may flash rom that i use now here http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/development/rom-neatromlite-themed-aroma-mods-t2060403
download v7.9 and then flash it with philz_touch recovery and all will be normal, even better than the original stock rom you'll see :fingers-crossed:
Thanks everyone for your answers! I solved the problem, educating myself with the Odin program through the help that konohanz and broken920 gave me. Flashing with Odin worked, thanks to you two for the quick and accurate answers!
great job dude, you're welcome :victory:
