there many way to unbrick your phone
here what i found
Try this, it is slightly different from what the guy earlier said..
1.) Take off your back cover, remove your sim & mirco sd card.
2.) Remove your battery.
Make sure you have Odin OPEN with admin privileges!
Make sure you have the USB plugged into your PC but NOT your phone!
3.) Hold the volume buttons.
4.) Put the battery in.
5.) Put the USB in.
Continue holding the volume keys & you should pop into DOWNLOAD mode within a few seconds
or
1. remove battery, sim and sd
2. Open Odin
3. Connect usb to phone
4. Hold down both volume keys and power
5. but battery back in
6. once the screen blinks, let go of the power button
7. keep holding both volume keys until the downloading screen starts
8. Flash back to stock. I always go back to stock after something like this just to make sure that nothing got corrupted. Also check the re-partition option.

OOP wrong thread
i've tried all but pc and odin still dont recognize my phone
Another suggestion is to try the Jig
And if that is not working then your only option is Jtag
go to www.mobiletechvideos.com and he sells professional JIGs for $8 and he can also fix complete bricks for $40. I ordered my JIG yesterday but I'm expecting that I will have to have him do the Jtag on it because my phone just DIED badly yesterday. Nothing has worked. We'll see what happens.

The Jig is to get it into Download mode. As you had stated earlier you can do this without issue.
I am guessing you are just missing the "Nexus S" drivers on your machine. I had to install them before it would recognize my phone when I first went to ICS.
You should find a link for the "Nexus S" drivers in the Development section. ICS does not want the Galaxy S drivers.
usb driver

Sorry this is the wrong driver, You gave him the HOST mode driver.
You will need the drivers listed here http://androiddrivers.net/samsung-android-drivers/download-nexus-s-drivers/
thank you for help but my phone after installing nexus s drivers still can not be recognized by pc and odin((((

Hi,
did you try installing google's SDK? try installing Java SDK x64 http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html
then install http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
when installing Android SDK in the "extra" section check the usb drivers.
after it downloads you can try changing the drivers in the device manager of windows and use the drivers found here.
C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\extras\google\usb_driver
well thats what i did after odin didnt recognize my phone. but my phone wasnt bricked. hope it helps.
thank you for triying help to me!!!!!! I also installed ANDROID SDK bu noyhing help me to fix that problem and PC stil recognized my phone as an {unknown device} ((((((((
Edit: nvm i see that you can access download mode.
It is definitely a driver issue, try a different usb port or even a different computer.
thank's but i've already tried that in 4 different PCs but nothing helped me there are shown only unknown device
Please anybody Help to fix my vibrant!!!!

Try a new USB cable.
I can tell you from experience that I thought I was completely bricked...I went out and bought a brand new phone! BUT, when I got home from the store, I kept trying, and I finally got everything working.
I know it's been said, but really make sure you have the correct drivers on your computer! That's the thing that saved me. I didn't have them at first, and I finally found them...do you have a friend whose computer you can try?
I had the same issue with my phone a while back.. I called Samsung, told them it just stopped working, and somehow i managed to still be under warranty. I sent it to them, and they say they replaced some parts or something, and sent it back working like new.
However, i would suggest trying the JIG. Ive heard it works, just forces your phone into download mode, and ODIN at that point should recognize it. GL
(Might want to try cleaning your computer, the registry files, and rebooting. Cant tell you how often thats helped solve issues for me.)
Thanks all for help but my phone didnt fixedhttp://media.xda-developers.com/images/smilies/frown.gif
How I fix those bricks....
1. Download AI0 Vibrant Tool Box here...
http://www.google.dm/url?sa=t&rct=j...uJ2iBA&usg=AFQjCNHHTDPoSZz-8jqhAHy7S2lsO5Vq4g
2. Run the toolbox.exe file.
3. From menu do "Install Drivers" just to be sure & follow screen directions.
3. Remove the phone battery.
4. From AI0 Menu select "Flash to Stock"
5. From Menu select Reboot into download & Start ODIN
6. Connect your USB cable to phone.
7. Hold down both UP/Down Volume buttoms AND Power button.
8. While doing that Install your battery.
9. See if Odin will recognize the phone by highlighting the ID:COM to yellow.
10. If so then load the PIT & PDA files & flash back to stock Eclair 2.1
Thank you,but AIO Vibrant Toolbox 2.5 doesnt help me to fix my vibrant,there are still uknown device((((((((((((

[Q] Computer wont recognize device.

My computer won't recognize my gs4. I have the latest drivers installed and have re-installed many times. The only thing it does when I plug it in is charge. It sometimes says windows is searching for the latest driver when I plug it in, but it then it then says it was unplugged. ODIN did manage recognize it once and that was enough for me too root it and then flash the stock kernel back on. My phone then soft-bricked at the padlock after some rom flashing and I had to go to my friends house to flash it back to stock. Is there anything else I can do?
Am I the only one with this problem?
Does it give you the error "USB device not recognized"? If so there are some fixes for it. I fixed my friends when I sold him my S3. His PC did it.
Yes, a couple of times it did that. Now it just does nothing.
If you try and remove the device from your device manager does it do anything?
Right click on computer and go to properties to get to the device manager.
What would it be named? I looked through all the usb stuff and everything else and couldn't find anything that would be my device.

It would be any device with a yellow Triangle and an Exclamation point on it. Also uninstall KIES and your Samsung USB drivers, then reboot. Get updated USB drivers from the S4 link in my signature.
It did the same thing and game me the unknown device thing. It also said that the device malfunctioned. I guess ill just try again.

Ok let's try this fix first.
1. Remove phone from PC and shutdown and remove battery to shut off phone.
2. Plug USB cable into PC and phone.
3. Put battery back in and boot phone but…
4. As the phone boots, hold down Volume up and down and don't let go until you see you are in safe mode on the phone. It should say safe mode on the front screen.
5. This should reboot your phone into download mode and install drivers that are needed.
6. Your PC will indicate and recognize the phone.
7. Now if you check the notification drop down on your phone you should see USB/MTP options there in the notification area. MTP should be checked.
Still no luck. Maybe later I will re-install windows or just re install every driver on my computer.
The other fix to try is listed below.
1. Uninstall any previous instance of Kies/USB driver
2. Download the latest Kies, specific to your S3.
3. Download Samsung USB drivers 1.4.6.0 (I've tried newer versions but they all failed)
4. REBOOT
5. Disconnect from internet (VERY IMPORTANT!!! - forcing Windows to install local drivers ONLY)
6. With the phone disconnected, install Kies + USB drivers downloaded in steps 2,3
7. Connect the phone and let Windows install the drivers.
8. Reestablish the internet connection.

If that doesn't work PM my your system specs IE RAM, CPU, and HDD Space and current OS.
The computer doesn't do anything when I plug the phone in. The only thing that starts to happen is that the phone starts charging.

Send me the PM with the requested info.
I'm not really requesting anymore info. I am just going to re install windows because I have done so much stuff to this install that it is time for a new one.
Bump
Any luck? My computer won't recognize my phone either anymore.

My experience with the "Device Malfunctioned" thing was due to a bad cable. It would charge, but wouldn't allow me to connect.
You might also try a different USB port on your computer. Often times the connectors on the back of a desktop system, which are hardwired to the motherboard, work more reliably than the front ones.

[Q] Rooting Trouble For My S3

Hello People !
This is general discussion thread and possible solutions too...
I recently purchased Ma S 3 and am not able to root it via odin
Thing that i can do:
I can go into Download mode/Recovery Mode
Can connect into odin then the phone is on
USB drivers for my PC working fine
Thing that don't work for me:
When i switch off my phone and then go into Recovery Mode am not able to connect to odin ( Means i don't get the Notification on odin that the phone is Connected and don't then the predictable change in color in the first column as mention in the tutu.
Query:
I do have an pro version on Mobile Heal antivirus on my mobile which is running on stock rom.... is it interfering with my root access
Does S 3 have Knox Firewall that is prevention me to access Odin
Please help.... i know these sound like noob questions ... but hey i cannot help it ...i am stuck
to connect to ODIN, switch off the phone then press VOLUME DOWN + POWER, and then it will ask you to press VOLUME UP to continue. IF your phone is not detected;
Just check the usb port , usb cable, samsung usb drivers.
If the problem still exists, try different cable.
I also faced this problem once.
and also if u r able to connect the phone to odin, while rooting make sure to uncheck REBOOT OPTION in ODIN.
HIT THANKS IF I HELPED

to connect to ODIN you don't need to go to RECOVERY,
press VOLUME DOWN + POWER !!!!!!

i downloaded the SuperSu file and trying to flash it.

Re-install Samsung drivers and Install/Uninstall Kies didn't help
Thanks in advance for your help.
Get Odin to recognise the phone, otherwise you are stuck. Search for the usual suspects to try.
Try change USB port and cable, use mother-board USB.

about cable and port that the first thing that i did. also tried on 2 more computers and got the same deal
You said you tried on 2 other computers. But did you make sure samsung drivers are installed on those computers?
I think I've been down that road before. You should try different odin versions 1.87 / 3.05 etc. Get a good USB cable and try cleaning the usb port on the phone with a soft toothbrush

Galaxy Alpha USB Mass storage not Detected by PC

HI everyone
I am using 4.4.4 rooted galaxy alpha with developer mode on.
I have installed usb drivers supplied by samsung, despite many attempts my phones storage wont show up in My computer and because of that i am not able to transfer files to and fro from my phone.
Whenever i try to connect, a notification pops up in my PC saying USB device not recognised, however the phones seems to be charging.
also there is no notification on my phone relating to USB connection with my PC.
i have dchecked into settings and havent seen any menu inside relating to USB connections or Mass storage etc.
please help me with it thankyou
I had this problem a while ago. Turn debugging off and developer options. Then plug in the USB and turn dev/debugging back on. Worked for me
Nope, still not working. its still showing device not recognised
Do u have revoke debugging option?
---------- Post added at 03:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:54 PM ----------
Device not recognised.. didn't see that part.. right click my computer. Select manage.. uninstall the drivers you have for the phone.. then reboot. Reinstall Samsung drivers before plugging in the USB cable.. it should then install no problem
I had the exact same problem.
The problem comes from your usb cable, try with another one.
