Hello all,
I appreciate your help. This is my first post, and i'm really struggling here.
Thank you for all of your time in responding.
First off, I have done a lot of research on how this is supposed to work and so I can't find out what is going wrong.
I have a Gplayer 5.0. I can currently connect it to the computer and take files off it, etc. So i believe my drivers are fine right now.
I have rooted my gplayer and it works fine. I can use superuser, CWM, etc.
However, I cannot get Odin to recognize my device in download mode. I have no idea what the problem could be.
I can give more details if necessary, but I don't know what else to tell you guys.
Thank you!

Have you installed kies? Kies is needed to get the good drivers. Also if you can't get odin to work just try heimdall.

It wouldn't detect on my desktop, I think because I plugged it in and accidentally unplugged it, and the drivers became corrupted ever since, I tried it on my laptop and everything worked perfectly, I'm not sure if it matters but my desktop was running W8 and my Laptop W7
Try removing and reinstaling all drivers and using other usb port..that helped me few times when that happend for no logical reason.

ODIN does NOT recognize my Droid Charge
Fist of all let me tell you what I have done to resolve this on my own:
Uninstalled/Re-installed the drivers for the Droid Charge
Put device into USB Debugging mode
Unknown sources are checked
Power cycled
Uninstalled/re-installed ODIN
Tried different pc's (all Windows)
Tried different USB ports on all of the pc's I have used
Factory reset on the device
I have read blogs that other people are having this same issue, suggested those troubleshooting steps, they did not work for others but hey I might get lucky right? And this is still a no go, so could someone PLEASE provide me with the correct troubleshooting steps to take to resolve this?

Hi
i was installing a stock rom last night and I got the Firmware Upgrade encountered....
The phone wont boot into recovery, it will how ever go into download mode but odin will not detect it no matter what I do
Tried every set of drivers I could find, no luck.
I am on windows 7 64 bit.
Is the phone bricked, it shows no binary count in download, would it be covered under warranty?
Really need to get my phone back if anyone can help, I have tried everything at this stage, I think
Thanks
Did you already installed the Kies software? It will install the Galaxy S2 drivers, maybe that is the problem. If it really doesn't work, try another computer with the Kies functioning!

dont forget that you need to start odin before you plug the phone in, if you can get into download mode then it's not bricked

Done that mate, thats the frustrating part, I can get into DL and know what to do but on three computers, I cant get it to work and ODIN always worked for me. I have had at least 300 roms on this phone but being stuck in DL mode sucks when I cant get progress, even returning to stock and using the factory tar files. I cant get any furhter than DL screen thanks for your help
Hi all, I understand this issue has been posted many times but I may have a different issue than most. Both of my s2 phones cant be seen by Odin in debugging mode but recognized when booted up.
1. I have checked and both Samsung USB and ADB drivers are installed fine and seen in devices and printers within windows 7. (tried different flavours of the driver too)
2. Debugging mode is on before going into download mode
3. I have tried 2 known working cables as I used them previously to update.
4. Tried 3 different versions of Odin
5. Tried 4 different USB ports
One is on stock android ICS and the other on the wrong version of ICS I9100P instead of I9100. I did this in error when first playing with ROMs.
I haven't tried it on another machine although that may be an option later next week. I am guessing it has to be the PC but at a loss as to what could be causing it.
Any help would be appreciated since I have been playing around with this for 4 hours and getting no where.
thanks in advance

Well Chris, it's time for you to download Kies.
And close the antivirus just in case.
Laptops are good for this kind of thing too.

It happened to me once. I just restarted my laptop and it works.
But make sure that Samsung drivers is installed. uninstall the kies and disable your anti-virus.

I tried rebooting and disabling the antivirus but it made no difference. Never tried it without kies installed, although I opened up task manager and killed all related processes to do with kies. I suppose its something to try tonight!
I checked to see if kies would see the devices and the GT-I9100 Stock ROM connected fine but the fact that I have a foreign rom on the other one causes issue.
Its an odd one
uninstall all the adb or samsung drivers including kies restart and then just only install kies

Its worth a try mate, I will give it a go tonight.
I have been going over it in my head. It has to be the adb driver as it works in kies, gets recognised by odin when turned on and affects multiple devices. What really puzzles me is that when in download mode the driver loads fine and the phone is showing in devices and printers. The only thing not seeing it is odin.
Try 3 odin versions at least.
Another usb port/cable.
Another pc/laptop.

Yeah, in the end I just put the os image and kernel on an sd card then ran them direct. That way I didn't need to use Odin or a pc at all!
Hope that helps!

Thank you. I'll keep your suggestion on hand. I just found a twrp zip that I was able to flash an atm I'm downloading a stock rom which I go hope will install. A year ago or two I attempted a rom install but I guess it got something stuck in its throat during the flash. Hopefully this will clear it out

Wow, looks deep. How do you ruin a motherboard with software? That sounds scary. Like ghosts are involved.
Hey everybody. I didn't get any replies in the vibrant section, and I figured it is also an over all samsung product question so here goes. I bought a very messed up samsung galaxy vibrant t959 off a friend for $20 hoping I could fix it. They had flashed a captivate rom to it but I can still manage to get it into download mode. But heres the problem. Odin wont recognize it when I plug it in it just says windows does not recognize device has malfunctioned or something along the lines of that, the bubble shows up over and over every two seconds. I got odin to recognize it once before, but my brother unplugged it XP. Now I can not get odin to recognize it again, any tips? I have a linux computer at my disposal as well if that helps. I am familiar with flashing, odin, android sdk, adb. I know I have drivers installed good because the same cable with the same port and same computer I actually modded this same device before my friend messed it up. Any help at all would be much appreciated.

I would recommend uninstalling and then re-installing your USB drivers and see if Odin will then recognize the phone. Another alternative would be to see if Heimdall recognizes the device and use that to flash the stock ROM to the device. If you are unfamiliar on how to use Heimdall I would recommend taking a look at this guide.

Heimdall on windows also will not detect it
Would it make a difference if I tried it on linux? I'll also try reinstalling drivers

You can try it on Linux I can't guarantee it will make a difference but I would try it anyway. If you are going to try it on Linux make sure you configure USB access for the device correctly in order for the computer to recognize your phone.
hey everyone, so ive have went thru all the threads i can find, done alot of research and have come up short. seems like alot of the users with the Verizon I605 Samsung Note 2 have the same problem, not connecting to their PC's.
-ive restarted both my note 2 and my PC numerous times.
-ive installed/uninstalled/re-installed the official Samsung website device drivers
-tried other USB ports
-tried up to 4 different USB/Mini USB cords
-made sure USB debugging was switched on
-Tried Samsung Kies, come to find out it doesn't support the I605 Note 2
-called Verizon and Samsung directly and both actually offered me a position as a tech after i told them all the things i did to figure it out, because it was way more then they could handle.
i know it has connected before, as i have done it once or twice a few weeks back but now it wont connect, drivers fail to install, and nothing else works. i have also tried every other method mentioned in the other threads. nothing has worked.
is there any fix for this? was it cause by the latest update?
im running 4.1.2/ VRAMC3
and im using Windows 7
please anyone lmk if there is a fix for this. ive exhausted all avenues known to me. thanks in advance.
Happened to me too, it's USB port in your computer. If you have any other computer or laptop try using that.
You can also try wireless connection for file transfer.

Hope you found your answer. If not have this moved. This was posted in the sprint version of the note 2 forums.

The appropriate forum would probably be more helpful.
Plus, are you getting any error messages? I've had issues with connecting the Sprint GN2. If I install the Samsung Drivers, I get a "Missing Hardware ID" error. I just found it's better not to install drivers. Let Windows install what drivers it can. Not all the drivers will install and will get an error message about device not successfully installed. But enough install that the GN2 will connect so you can move files around for MTP. See a thread I did back in December, linky
Also, you can try out SG Flash Drive Enabler. I've tried it out. It works pretty well. It has quirks, but does allow you to use your SDHC card as a flash drive. You have to use the MTP to access the phone's storage.
oh man...*face palm* sorry about posting in the wrong forum guys, i was about to crash and i didn't even realize. my mad.
MODS: please move this to the correct Forum section at your earliest convenience, thanks :silly:
i have found that airdroid does work for wifi file transfers for such things as pictures, music...etc. but im wanting to root my note 2 and it needs a direct line from the phone to the pc to work.
ill check out those links posted up and see what how it goes. but we still need a fix for this. kinda lame only (well most) the verizon SN2 is having this problem.

You may want to use ToolKit. I believe it's setup for AT&T tool. Uninstall KIES and all the samsung driver on the your PC. Choose to have ToolKit install the drivers. It should get your enough connection for ADB to work and be able to root and install a custom recovery. I had to use it a couple days ago to get a custom recovery back on the GN2 and I was getting the Missing Hardware ID error and still worked.

Ive done that very process. Uninstalled kies and installed the toolkit drives. Some reason it would sort of connect but then disconnect. Never stayed on and wasnt able to be picked up as connected on the Odin program.

where did you go on windows 7 to turn off the above mentioned? the middle part confuses me a bit. so your saying you turned off the windows feature to look for driver updates when the phone is connected via USB?
if you dont mind, please walk me thru your process. thanks in advance.

Kies was un-installed per instuctions on the toolbox. i guess i could try and re-install it and retry everything.
EDIT: just remembered that Kies dosnt support the Verizon Note 2....lame sauce.

i am going to try to download a older driver that was working before and see if that works. its linked near the bottom of the above posted link in one of the replies. ill come back with results.
ok so i downloaded the samsung drivers version 1.4.6.0 and followed the directions on the link i provided above. the drivers installed successfully, but the CASUAL(R515b) No You Verizon! program doesn't seem to see the phone connected to the computer. and just continually loops. sigh...this is getting to get stupid. such a simple task yet its not connecting.
EDIT: the drivers SAY they have installed successfully, but the computer still doesn't recognize the phone is connected. even reads on the phone that the software wasnt found to connect to the computers, and the CASUAL program also tells me that the phone isnt connected....sigh...seriously....WTF.
When you install your driver's on your pc you need to restart your pc...have you tryed that?

While Kies does not officially support the VZW Note 2 it is the only way me and my friends can get our PCs to see our Note 2s, that's the only reason I ask and it is usually par for course. Its what's suggested in these cases if it isn't already installed. It can hurt to give it a shot and see if it helps anything, if not you can just uninstall it again.
