hey guys...i have a samsung vibrant .. i got it like 3 weeks ago ...and i did the one click room...so this week tmobile sends me a OTA update... so i update...then out of nowhere my phone stay stuck in the "samsung vibrant" screen .. i can hear it booting up but it wont go pass the samsung screen... i try to restore it with ODIN but my stupid ass computer wont recognize my phone and i already download both drivers 64 and 32... idk what else to do can sumbody help?
While its in download mode try unpluging it from the USB port and plugging it back in...Works sometimes. Or power down the phone, plug in the usb cable..start up ODin then power the phone on into Download mode...should recognize it.
Or you need the current Samsung Driver for your PC. OR...just or you can search the Vibrant bible.

ok first post so i wont waste any time getting to my problem, how I caused it and what i have tryed to fix it.
i have a vibrant running 2.2, last night i tryed to root using aio toolbox not knowing it only worked for 2.1(my mistake).. so heres what happened it boot my phone into download mode and from there i tryed to install packages only to get a error about signature so i reboot my phone and tryed to use odin to downgrade only to realize that somehow i screwed up my phones ability to connect to pc, it charges but does not go in debugging massstorage etc, so from there i went back into download mode and tryed to reinstall packages only to get error about missing update.zip, i dont have superuser and dont know how to get the update.zip back without usbmode or superuser. ive tryed everything else, it will detect my wifes vibrant but not mine. i know its my phone not the pc/usb/drivers etc etc PLEASE HELP NEWBERT
just keep trying odin to get back to 2.1
my usb's dodgy aswell, charges and takes like an hour or 2 before it actually comes up on computer and phone saying its connected
i messed up mine the other day and it took me like 2 hours of trying to get it to connect to odin going through all 4 of my usb ports like 10 times each but it eventually did it so just keep trying
try different ways:
pull battery out and connect usb and open odin
hold vol up and down and push battery back in and it should go to download mode
or
leave battery in, open odin hold vol up and down and plug usb in and that should go to download mode
mine only works with the 2nd way for some reason, the 1st way seems to work for most people though
ive tryed this it will go into download mode but odin wont detect it, i think its something with my drivers on my phone. im completely new to this but i know it worked flawlessly untill i tryed to root, im not sure what went wrong besides i used aio toolbox intended for 2.1 on 2.2
Odd. I have never used the AIO Toolbox, never felt the need to, but yes, if you are able to get into download mode, but ODIN is not recognizing, it does sound like a driver issue.
You may want to uninstall/reinstall (here are the drivers, be sure to note the 32/64 tabs) LINK
Also, make sure you have the latest ODIN (check my going back to stock guide)
You might also want to make sure the pit/tar you have for JFD are good by checking the md5, I use hashtab to do this. (I realize you are not at that point yet).
Try rebooting your PC, pulling your battery and waiting a bit... trying different USB ports, be sure to remove other USB devices too before rebooting your PC (my ODIN will NEVER work with my webcam hooked up).
If that does not work, wonder if other drivers would help...
+1 follow above
- So the phone won't boot completely? That sux!
- If it did you could bluetooth the update.zip from her phone to urs.
.....but.......
- It automatically boots into recovery?thats odd
***How are you getting into Download mode?(the yellow triangle with android dude shoveling) Button combo maybe?
Ok..I hate to sound like a newbie, but I am when it comes to the GB stuff. So I was coming from Bi-Winning ver. 3 and followed the OP for Simply Honey 3.8. But in the first part of ODIN, the screen went completely LIGHT PINK and stayed there for about 30 minutes. So, I had to redo, but now ODIN and Windows 7 32-bit doesn't recognize my phone. I can bring the phone into DOWNLOAD MODE, but it will get stuck on the Phone>>!>PC screen if I try to boot normal. NOW IT DOESN'T EVEN SHOW A SCREEN WITH NO LIGHTS!!! Can anyone please help??????!!!!!!!!
when i messed up a flash and my computer didnt recognize my phone i changed ports and restarted my computer and it worked. worth a shot
I was running AOKP 38 when the battery died. The phone got stuck in bootloop and when i tried restoring from cwm I lost the ability to boot into ANY RECOVERY!!!
When i try odin, it wont recognize the phone and both my pc's give me the message that the usb device isnt working.
Please helppppppp
Sounds like you don't have the right USB drivers installed on your computers.

i've already unistalled and reinstalled the samsung drivers. when i plug the phone into pc, i get the windows error message that the usb device is malfunctioning and windows has stopped it.
You are in download mode, right? It's just that it's better to rule these things out and you didn't specifically say that it was.
I cant even 3 finger into recovery!!! The phone just continuously runs the samsung screen.
Remove the battery, then hold volume down and plug in the USB cable. Do you see a yellow triangle?
yes, the yellow triangle comes on
Let me explain a little further. Ive been running AOKP 38 and on thursday I let my battery fully die. The phone never came on again. I have done a nandroid backup and everything is also backed up in Titanium. The phone will not boot into recovery nor will phone boot at all. ODIN wont pick up my phone and I've bought a new Samsung chord and reinstalled the Samsung drivers. Still nada.
Try a different USB port. Also, give Heimdall Suite a try.
ok so i went out and scored a sweet fassy. Brought it home, hooked up to pc and it picks up!!!!! Go figure. Im sooooo lost
Shelby is probably right. You need to install the Google USB driver from SDK Manager.

My laptop totally recognizes my sister's stock fascinate, but stopped recognizing my fascinate after a similar low battery / bootloop situation.
I had much success using a totally different computer to flash with odin or heimdall. I had to try 3 diff pcs until i hit paydirt.
To this day, the two laptops I used all the time for my fascinate no longer recognize it, yet other pcs recognize & odin fine. Likely other programs interfering with USB. Either way, way easier to borrow someone's pc, than to try & troubleshoot what is up with the usb connection.
At least you can get into download mode. That's half the battle right there.
Try another pc or possibly heimdall & good luck

Hello People
Im in need of your help please!
The other night my battery went dead on my Samsung galaxy S3, after charging it fully, i tried to turn in on. However it was stuck in boot loop
So far i have tried everything, Ive tried
factory reset
clearing cache
putting it in download mode
taking the power button out
I downloaded kies and Odin to try and put the new firmware on, however my phone will only charge through the USB port and keeps saying windows does not reconigse the device as it is malfunctioned. I have installed all the drivers, tried computer at work, tried a different lead, but nothing!
Can anyone help me, are you able to put the firmware on through SD card as there is no way of me getting into the phone!
Thanks in advance!
