I hope this is the right place to post this. I'm new to rooting and flashing but did tons of research and got my vibrant rooted and running great with Nero v.3. Did the same to my roommate's phone with equal success. I tried the Gingerbread experimental rom from Team Whiskey and now I can't get rid of it. I've tried using Odin like the post says but my phone won't go into download mode no matter what I try and Odin won't recognize it, so I can't flash the voodoo kernel back. I've tried every combo of buttons and battery, sim, sd card removals, etc. I got sdk android set up and followed all the posts but when I try adb reboot recovery my computer says adb is not a known command, process, or batch file. I have the environment variables set up in advanced settings for my computer but still nothing. To make it worse my phone had no service detected now and keeps powering itself on and off consistently. Any advice on why adb won't work or another way to get to download mode? Something other than odin?
For one, ADB is not set up correctly if you are getting that error. I had to manually adjust the environment settings on my Win7 pc to get it to run right. It does not write it correctly to Win7's environment settings for some reason.
Second, if you cannot get into DL mode, you could always try this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=889128&highlight=jig
It says for Captivate but should work just fine on the Vibrant. There are other threads on this in the i9000 forums as well.
adb
So can anyone help with the setting required for Win 7 in the environment settings to get ABD to work?

Did you place a copy of the adb.exe and the adbwinapi.dll into your system32 folder? Thats necessary to allow adb to be run from any command line location.

Sorry for all the questions but where would I find the system 32 folder?
You need to insatll the nexus s drivers for adb and odin to.see.the phone.
For download mode, turn phone off, unplug the usb. Hold vol up and down and.plug.in.usb. will put you right into dl mode. If it doesnt...then you.need a jig

I know nothing about ADB, nothing at all, however I was able to install it with no problem, and it detects my phone.
I followed the step by steps directions posted directly by Google.
edit:
Seems like I installed SDK. Wait are the two the same?
Anyway, I followed the directions at the link below, and seems like I'm running ADB via command prompt.
http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
click on "installing the sdk"
edit:
yup, sure enough I have ADB. LOL now i'm confused. SDK and ADB are the same? Anyways, I followed the link above, installed sdk, and I have ADB too. I'm using drivers via samsung kies.
The android sdk installs adb I do believe. I've gotten into the habit of just copying my sdk folder to (random pc's) c drive, if I'll need the functions in there, and/or copying the two files over and going in commando style. Just copying the files over to system32 on most pc's will give you basic adb commands, for more advanced functions sdk is necessary. Probably not the surest way but its been working for me.

Again, you need to install the Nexus S drivers.
http://www.fileserve.com/file/5bgRBX5
Download and extract.
When you plug your phone in, go to Device Manager, you'll see that Nexus S was unable to install. Right click and choose update driver.
navigate to where you extracted the files to, and install.
It will now install the ADB driver, which also allows ODIN to see the phone in Download mode.
First thanks to everyone for the help and suggestions. I've got adb working now, it recognizes my phone and the adb commands work. I updated the nexus drivers in the device manager. Now when I connect the phone and use the adb reboot recovery command it shuts down, goes to a charging screen for a second, then boots back up to gingerbread. I tried using the adbrebootdownload in the adb bat file and once again the phone shut down and booted back up to gingerbread. The phone is unusable but doesn't seemed to be "bricked" (based on my understanding of bricked). Very frustrating. I had Nero v.3 with voodoo working amazing, Im so pissed at myself. Any other thoughts?
to get to download you need to do the 3 button combo.
power down, unplug, hold vol up and down, and plug in usb.
Thanks but the three button method wont work. Am I wrong in assuming that using ADB you can get into download mode without using the button method? The op said that all I need to do is use odin to flash the previous kernel to get the phone back to nero. I'm stuck! Has anyone had problems using adb recovery?

No, I got ADB working by installing SDK, using the link I provided, and using the normal drivers from kies. However, I did this a couple months ago, maybe the driver requirments have changed now, I'm not sure, but it works for me.

The adb command for download mode is adb reboot download, be sure usb debugging is switched on on your phone. If that doesn't trigger download mode, I think the jig is your only hope.

Try this method:
1) remove batt, sim, and sd
2) plug in usb cable (and attached to computer with odin open)
3) hold down both vol keys
4) pop in battery
This always works for me.

got the same problem on my xperia ray
I had this problem earlier.
Well windows 8 does allow unsigned fastboot drivers to get installed. I'm assuming u r installing drivers from file in flashtool folder.
Follow the procedure in This link to disable driver signatures.
Reboot system after procedure done, then install the fastboot drivers they should work fine.

You can get into fastboot without flashtool if drivers are correctly installed.
Stupid question: Have you already unlocked your bootloader? If you haven't done any modding before (e.g. flashing custom ROM) you might haven't done it so. That can explain why your phone goes charging when you plug USB cable instead of fastboot mode. Try also some Linux live distributions. Some of them have adb and fastboot included.
I have done flashing and modding.
But right now I am not able to put the phone in fastboot mode
I am expecting some helpful comments instead of asking me to search for answers.
Because I have already searched for those, came here finally.
Please provide helpful comments to put the phone in fastboot.
I am not able to find the answer
How did you unlock your bootloader?? I mean by which method did you do it?

First, you didn't provide importrant information. Which ROM you currently have, which one you are trying to flash, have you tried to update firmware via OTA, because there are some situations where you can accidentaly relock your bootloader. I assume you didn't brick your phone earlier with FOTA, like in my case.
Next, when you try to connect into fastboot mode, try it without FlashTool and open device manager and watch if it responds when you try to connect phone with usb while holding menu key. Fastboot is a command line application which can work without FlashTool (which is a GUI frontend to fastboot).
Second, you didn't read my post thoroughly. I suggested you to try a Linux live distribution, e.g. ubuntu. Just boot it from CD or USB and when it is ready you can connect phone in fastboot mode, just hold a menu key and plug the usb cable and see if blue light goes on. It will probably not solve your problem on Windows, but will give us some answers.
I too am facing the same problem!
Im currently using CyanogenMod 10 with the same Kernel which was pre-installed on the Neo V when I bought it.
I wish to change the Kernel to Lupus as it is compatible with most of the ROMs. I tried flashing the kernel with Flashtools and Kernel Flasher but to no avail.
Kindly help!

Why don't you flash stock ICS firmware in flashmode(via flashtool)??
Have you tried flashing stock rom with flashtool?
You can also try (re)mounting sdcard in cwm recovery or with adb.
In cwm it's located in mounts and storage --> mount sdcard.
When you connect your phone to pc, do you see that "usb debugging enabled" notification?
If not you have to enable it from developer options. And when you try to do something with adb, does it give any error message, such as "device offline", "device not found" or "waiting for device"?

your problem is that ur drivers are crashed because of some weird reason..
Download usb deview at http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/usb_devices_view.html#DownloadLinks
unplug your phone..
now unzip the app and run it..
in the vendor id tab search for drivers having id as - "0fce"
Select ALL of them and uninstall them by right click --> uninstall selected.
remove sony pc companion.
restart your pc..
download latest adb and fastboot drivers here : http://rubenalamina.mx/download/525/
simply run the installer..
default install directory is C:\ADB
now turn off usb debugging and then connect your phone.
let it install mtp drivers.
now download flashtool https://unrestrict.li/flashtool
install the flashtool.
(optional but still recommended) disable antivirus and firewall of pc
go to install directory of flashtool and locate folder "drivers"
open it and run the installer.. you will see a window asking which driver to install check the following items:
-xperia p, u, sola, go, drivers,
-fastboot
-flashtool
when its done unplug turn on usb debugging and go to installed directory of adb, press and hold shift key and then right click anywhere in that folder..
select open command prompt and pass this command:
adb devices
you should see at least one device connected.
if yes you are succeeded and fastboot will work too.

This may sound silly but two things,
have you tried a different usb port
and is the sdcard mounted in cwm.
I have to make sure the sdcard is mounted before i can connect mine.
Do a hard reset hold power and up till the phone vibrates 3 times then try to connect to flashtool by holding power and volume down.
Guys, I have a xperia mini st15i device with CrDroid 4.4.4 KitKat Rom. Recently I tried to flash RR Lollipop roms Kernel on my device. But I failed to boot on fastboot mode over and over again. I have tried different cables, different usb even different pc's. But all the time i tried to connect it to usb cable holding volume up button the blue light( which is counted as a signal of fastboot mood) blinks once and phone went into charging mood. If i connect it on flashtool, flashtool recognise my device. If i try to boot device into fastboot via adb through flashtool it just lost connection with phone and phone goes into regular boot.
Guys please help me with this.what can i do now? what i am doing wrong? I am totally stucked with this since last few days.

I have uninstalled flashtool, removed the folder from drive, rebooted pc and then again installed flashtool and drivers as well. but its still the same. actually i am little confused about removing all drivers you said. are those drivers contained in any other places in pc beside flashtool folder?
