Seems drivers are not installed correctly. Uninstall the drivers and reinstall. Also try changing the USB port or confirm by connecting a different phone to same cable and USB port if they are fine.
If the phone is on ICS/JB, use this method to root. Its simple and does not require flashing of kernel

[Q] Download mode drivers

Ok, got a usb jig and can get into download mode no problem. I can't get phone to be recognized as anything other than an unknown device. Tried the samsung usb drivers as well as the adk drivers. 2 different pc's and 3 different cables. I am running CM7 and I want it back to factory so I can flash something that will allow me to save my family in the event of a fire. Odin never recognizes the phone. Is there someone who has went back to stock from cm7 on a vibrant and could provide me with the proper drivers?
Thank you!
What I did is I downloaded kies mini ince installed on the PC. Plug in the phone and it will download the required drivers for your phone. Once its completed power offthe phone get into download mode and turn on Odin. It should work. Worked for me

Device manager right click on (!) Install drivers. Browse my comp...find the driver folder and install. Hope this helps.

Yeah, Kies Mini is a very easy and effective method of installing Samsung Drivers. OP, I suggest you try it.

[Q] Can't do anything via usb.

recently i norice that my SGS2 can't do nything via usb. i get into download mod but COM Port not detect in Odin. I try to unroot super one click but not detect my phone. Samsung Kie also not connected. I try to change many PC and Laptop and install/reinstall driver and kie many time but still same.I worry that future if my phone get problem with recent rom how can I flash new rom? Please kindly guide me...
For now your only option may be to flash via CWM.
Seems like you either have a faulty charging port or it could be dirty. Try cleaning it and see if it helps. I had a similar problem with my S1 but it fixed itself after I left it on charge for a long time.

Have you tried using another cable? USB debugging enabled/disabled?

Dial: *#*#7284#*#* or just *#7284# and make sure USB is set to PDA and not MODEM.
If that doesn't work, try re-installing the drivers.

i9100m not recognized by my computer after root

I rooted my i9100m a couple of months ago and after the rooting process it wasn't recognized by my computer. I didn't really care much though. Well now I do, so I unrooted my phone yesterday by flashing the stock ROM but it still didn't work with my PC. I really hope that my phone isn't broken. Any suggestions? I have reinstalled the samsung kies drivers, tried different usb ports/cables and multiple computers with no luck...

U did flash the correct Rom/Firmware for ur phone and not the international i9100?
Did u try to activate "USB Debugging" in developer settings?
CHEERS
I flashed the correct firmware for my exact phone. And I have tried usb debugging.

I guess there is a problem with SGS2's USB connector. Try cleaning it with a toothbrush and it may work. Seems crazy, but worked for me and lot of other guys. I came to know about this on XDA...

Did you unlock it again? I'm guessing since you said you can't root means that you didn't use the stock image that was already rooted. Just had this same issue with a friend, flashed back to stock w/root, factory reset everything, and it worked. Then backed up everything and went to a new rom.
No I didnt unlock. Im uploading pics to show my problem.
My phone is not detected at all when plugged up to pc its just charged so no adb or rooting commands.
I used CASUAL but when it tries to push the PIT file it fails. Odin also fails when trying to use the PIT file and when it comes to flashing the modem

You made sure to put it in to debugging mode too, right?
Of course, thats simple.
Phone isnt recognized at all when plugged to pc.
Not in mtp, ptp, or adb. Nothing at all except indication that its in a power source.

You said you used casual and when it tried to push the pit it failed.
Check your drivers or try another PC
I have a version of causal that does work on 4.1.2 and also allows u to start the command from download mode so thats how I was able to try casual.
Yes im 100% I have all drivers correct

hi,
ideally, Nand Erase All option is not to be selected in Odin which you selected....this option has unexpected problem like the one you encountered and hence this is the cause of your handset issue of Banseband & IMEI unknown. Please avoid this option in future.
Thanks,

I tried it without also. Same result. Ive tried flashing all android versions 4.1.2, which is the one i got the phone with and yes it was in this condition. Ive also tried 4.1.1 and 4.3. All stop at modem but one stopped at tz.img

i have that program it fails at installing PIT file and so does Odin
Have you tried a different cable, for some reason it seems this phone is picky on what cables and even what USB port it wants to work on. Don't use a USB 3.0 port use a US 2.0.

Yep tried that also . And ok a different pc. Neither detected the phone in any type of way in android

Have you tried wireless adb? What about airdroid? Just wondering exactly where you stand? Did the phone show a notification when plugged in? The Devil is in the details.

Odin not detecting phone

I have Odin 3.07 and have been trying to Root but Odin not detecting the phone. I had USB debugging enabled, disabled Kies and even uninstalled it, have the Samsung USB drivers installed. Nevertheless it failed to detect. I tried every possible thing I could. I'm really fed up of all this. Please help.

1- reinstall kies (and leave it intact) .
2- connect your device while in download mode
