and tried every method short of the jig to enter download mode. The rom I was on started force closing so I used a backup that was on my card and got stuck at the vibrant screen. When I pull the battery and plug in, the charge icon pops up but stays gray, if i leave it plugged in for a few minutes, kernel panic pops up. No 3 button combo seems to work for download or recovery, Iv'e used both many times, adb nor odin has recognized my phone. Any suggestions?
What rom were you on?
Holding in both volume buttons?
Have odin open and usb connected to pc already?
I was on the Beast and tried Private Stock without disabling voo doo, for some reason the usual usb button combo wont work, computer doesn't recognize at all
So, you tried to get into download mode these ways:
1-
On PC, open ODIN
Connect USB to PC (not phone)
Pull Battery on phone and replace it
Press and hold in both volume buttons
Connect USB to phone (volume buttons still pressed in)
Wait at least 3 seconds (still holding volume)
Release when you see the Yellow Triangle
2-
Open ODIN
Connect usb to pc
pull battery, sim, sd card
on odin, load the pit and tar files for jfd
connect usb to phone
hold in both volume buttons and insert the battery
3 seconds.. download mode?
Now, is your phone getting into download mode and the pc is not recognizing it? ie, the COM # is not showing? If that's the case, it sounds like you need the drivers... some other usb device is connecting and messing up odin (happens to me with my webcam)... or the usb cable you are using could be the issue, guesses
You should be good to go with s15274n second method. Good luck
I recently had a Phone ... ! ... PC that refused to disappear. I was able to see a COM port in ODIN, but could not get it to show Download Mode on the phone. I went ahead and tried to start the ODIN flash anyway, and it worked like a charm. If you see a COM port in ODIN, try flashing anyway.
No luck with either of those methods, odin doesn't see it at all.The only thing other than kernel panic, a gray battery symbol, or the vibrant screen was a button forced upload screen similar to kernel panic.
I just downloaded fresh jfd files, method 2, got a power reset or unknown upload mode, popped up in an odin window but hung up on file analysis

Ok, So i'm having a heaping pile of rooting problems. Brand new phone. Installed and updated Kies on my computer.
First problem: can't enter download mode without having usb plugged in. Volume down+power and volume up+ power just turns the phone on again. volume up+ volume down+ power enters 3e recovery. If I hold both volume buttons and plug the usb in, then it goes to the "press volume up to enter download mode" screen and that's the only way i can do it.
Second Problem: perhaps due to the fact that i have to plug in my usb in order to get to usb mode, superone click and odin don't recognize my phone. When i open those programs it doesn't show "[0:COM8]" (or something similar) like it should.
Third Problem: many methods for rooting I have found want me to use Odin 1.x (usually odin3 v1.85) I have windows 7 prompt me for permission to use that program. Then, I get a small dialogue box that says "Odin3" followed by several characters in what appears to be japanese. The only option on that box is "ok" and when you press that the box goes away and odin never opens...
I have not found a root method that doesn't run headlong into one or more of those issues. Any help would be great, I have no idea why this is so difficult.

for one. you have to plug usb in to get into download mode.
for two. you have to hold volume up and volume down, then plug the usb in to get into download mode.
exactly, but then my phone isn't recognized in odin or anything else for that matter. And i have seen numerous instructions for this phone that tell you to enter download mode with Volume down+ power alone...

That should take care of the driver issue, but it's still possible (an outside chance) you will have to uninstall and reinstall the usb driver.

You are trying to use the I9100 key combinations. The one that works for you is the only one that works on the I777.

Could be a driver problem or is could be a faulty connection of your usb port or cable. Try a different usb port, try a different cable.

Odin3 v1.85 work fine on Windows 7. But you don't need Odin3 v1.85 if you are using the One-click Downloader executable, which is also an Odin. If you want to use Odin3 v1.85, delete the one you have and redownload it.

Not familiar with it, but those may be for I9100. Download mode on I777 is, as previously mentioned, hold both volume buttons, not power, while powered off, and then plug in. If your device isn't recognized in odin, try going to the samsung site and download the newest drivers there

Holding power to enter download mode is not valid for I9100 either.

I have an I777 for sure. so not my problem boils down to odin not recognizing my phone when in download mode. Or, when i try to use DooMLorD V3 root... i have seen that highly recommended but it doesn't recognize that my device either.
You need to update your driver. get it from the Samsung site

+1. Have Odin already open before you even start putting your phone in download mode.
Or try another computer. You could always just use Odin 1.85 and flash a kernel tar file, such as entropy or siyah.
I tried to Unroot my Galaxy Tab 10.1 LTE last night and think I may have bricked my tablet. I used the instructions here on the XDA forum which had a link to all the Stock ROM's in one place. I got the most recent one and the only one for USA but it said it was for the model 7510. I didn't think that would be a problem since the USB drivers I installed on my PC were also labeled as being for the 7510 and they worked.
This tablet is the SCH-I905. Now I can't get it to boot at all. Gets stuck in a boot loop. Shows the Samsung logo, then resets and does it again. I can't get it in recovery mode either. Goes to a black screen and hangs.
Using the normal process to get to Download mode doesn't work. Holding Power and Volume Up, then letting go of the Power button, then pressing Volume Down and then Up. That's one weird thing. I can get to the option screen that shows the Download and Recovery mode options. Normally I would hit the Volume Down button to select Download mode and on the screen it says to press Volume Up to continue or Volume Down to cancel. If I press Volume Up it goes to a black screen and hangs. If I press Volume Down I get the Odin Download screen that says Waiting on USB cable.
That screen doesn't look the same as what I normally see but I'm not sure what's different. I didn't memorize each line of text. I just know there's not as much text there as there usually is. My PC will not recognize the tablet no matter which USB port I try to use and the tablet doesn't recognize that the USB cable is plugged in. I had no problem with the USB connection before I flashed the 7510 stock ROM.
So, if I cannot get to recovery mode and I can't get Download mode to work so I can use Odin to flash a different rom then is this thing bricked or is there something else I can try? I am about to try using my laptop and its USB ports but I don't think that's going to make any difference.
BTW, I have since found the correct 'stock recovery rom' at droidbasement.com and downloaded it to my PC. I just need to get on the tablet somehow.
Many people have your problem. I have my Lte verizon bricked as yours. The problem is demaged bootloader, only nvflash can fix it but actually our bootloader is locked and we need a hex key called sbk. At least we have to wait that somebody hack our tab from the basement. For now we can only search and share result.

I had tried to update my phone via Kies and the computer blue screened. Now the phone is stuck on the ODIN Mode screen with a picture of my phone on the left, a yellow triangle in the middle, and a computer on the right. Taking the battery out does nothing, restarting does nothing, restarting while holding down the volume buttons does nothing. No matter what, it always comes back to this screen.
When I plug the device into my windows based PC and open ODIN, ODIN does not see my phone. When I plug it into my linux computer and run lsusb, it does not list my phone in the output, so the computer definitely isn't recognizing that my phone is plugged in. A couple of weeks ago, I had this problem while trying to back up the phone, so I'm not sure if it's related to the botched upgrade or not.
Does anyone have any tips or advice here? I'd really love to be able to use my phone again. I am using the cable that came with the phone. I have the same results with other cables, as well....
I'm happy to provide more information if needed. Just tell me what you need to know.
That screen is a form of download mode. You should be able to flash stock or stock plus root from there.

If this statement reflects what you actually did, then it suggests the wrong order. You must first open oden on the desktop, and then connect the phone to the computer in download mode.
Try that first.
Next you could try putting the phone into download mode with the battery pulled out. Open Odin on the desktop, then with the battery out, hold down the vol- button while plugging in the usb cable.
Thanks for your response.
So I went ahead and cleared out everything and then reinstalled the USB drivers. Opened ODIN, connected USB to computer, took battery out of phone, put battery back in, held down volume buttons and inserted the cord. The screen immediately loaded up the one I spoke of in my first post. Odin still did not recognize that I had my phone plugged in.
So then I installed Kies and went to the firmware restoration item under the tools menu. Entered my model and serial number and put my phone into recovery mode according to the instructions there, but the "Start Upgrade" button was grayed out and never became clickable.
One thing I did notice while doing this (On yet another new computer) is that when I plug in the phone, I get a "USB Device Not Recognized" error in Windows. I'm not sure if this is a result of it being in download mode or not, but I thought it worth mentioning. I did attempt to blow out my mini USB on the phone for good measure, but had the same result, even with another cord.
On ur Windows pc, did u try different usb ports ? And don't use a usb hub.

Yes, multiple ports on multiple PCs.
The port was working fine yesterday when the Kies update failed.
Have u tried using a Jig to get ur phone into download mode ??

First of all make sure that your PC isnt running Kies in the background - Use Tsk Manager to kill Kies process
Then Plug In your Phone
Enter Download Mode by holding both volume buttons and powerbutton till the Boot Screen Appears.Let the power button go when you see the boot screen but keep holding the volume buttons.
In no time you'll be in Download mode
Then go to odin and check if your computer recognises it. Odin willl show you (Com:x) X - Any Number
Then you can easily flash stock rom or a custom recovery..

I have already made sure Kies is not running (And have tried this on a computer without Kies installed) and according to creepyncrawly in the second post here, the screen that I'm seeing IS download mode.

You could order one fairly inexpensive. But order it or make it still takes some time. But as several have mentioned, it may help.

Yes, I have tried forcing download mode by taking the battery out, holding down Vol and inserting it again. These are also the instructions that Kies gives, but it didn't work there either.

My phones update failed and I got the same phone, triangle, computer. I tried different USBs, different USB ports, different computers, tried Odin, nothing worked. As soon as I found my USB jig that was lying around, and plugged it in before I put in the battery, and the regular download mode which I am used to seeing showed up. ODIN recognized the phone and I flashed back to stock ICS rooted I downloaded from XDA.

That's different that what I suggested. Remove the battery and leave it out. If you have to, sit on it so you won't be tempted to put it back in, lol. While holding vol down button, plug in the usb cable. The usb will supply the power. The phone should boot into download mode.

I guess I misread that. I blame it on my stressful week ending with no phone
So I just did that and boom, download mode as I would expect loaded up first time, no issues after I held down both Volume buttons while plugging it in (Holding down just Vol - didn't do anything). Unfortunately, it still did not show up in Odin (Kies background processes were all killed and USB driver IS installed on this computer and Odin WAS open before I plugged the phone in)
So I unplugged, opened Kies, and was going to try a restore through there since I could finally get download mode working properly. Except when I tried it this time, nothing happened. I held down the vol buttons, plugged it in, got a single vibrate, but nothing showed up on the screen. Unplugged, put the battery in, and it turned on and screen worked. Took out the battery and just plugged it in and the screen worked after vibrating 6 short pulses (It pulled up the screen mentioned in my first post). Unplugged, held down vol buttons and plugged it in, same thing. Blank screen.
Now I'm really at a loss. I'm starting to wonder if there is something wrong with my USB port on the phone itself.

Hi there,
i have same problem with my Galaxy ACE GT-S5839i: i can't get ODIN to detect my phone. Originally, i tried to flash my phone and made a mistake in the process (installed a ROM before i installed CWM). This caused my phone to stop booting. The only thing remaining working is the download mode. But i can't get ODIN to detect. I tried 2 PCs, different USB ports; i tried to install Kies, or just the drivers... nothing makes ODIN detect my phone... I hear my PCs detects the phone when in download mode (it bips) and my PCs both recognized my phone (Samsung Mobile USB CDC Composite Device). On PC uses windows 7 and the other Windows Vista. I ran ODIN v4.38 on both... Would be grateful for any idea what to do...

I had the same problem with kies on a sprint s2. EXACT same problem. Cord got jerked out in the middle of Odin flash. THE ONLY screen i could get is the one you described.
Also went through the steps with keis, dl firmware, got to the last part but the start button was greyed out. I had to do this several times and finally the start button lit up. Idk why it didn't work before but it finally did. Have you tried doing it more than once?
I wished i could be more help but that was my experience. Maybe it will work for you.
Hey guys, I really need help with my situation. I've been looking all over the forums for 2days straight trying to find solutions to my problem. I have a galaxy s2 i777 and I had the sho-stock3 rom. Then I decided that I wanted to back up my rom, so I used rom manager to do it. that's when the problem started. when the phone tried restarting it was stuck where it says "galaxy s2" with the yellow triangle. I put it into download mode and tried to flash siyah kernel..it worked..but when I tried to reboot my phones says "firmware upgrade encountered an issue, please select recovery mode in kies and try again. of course kies wont let the phone connect. and yes all the drives are installed for my phone. now i'm just stuck trying to flash stock firmwares for the phone and the stock rom but it always fails in odin. please help me!!!!!

Hello
My friend just gave me I777 with this problem cause he bought a new phone, he couldn't tell me exactly when he got that "connect to kies". I never flashed anything or installed any rom's, I just want to get it back to life. Any solutions for me?

Can you put the phone into download mode? I would assume the answer is yes if you still get the "connect to kies" message. Following are detailed instructions for getting into download mode.
Download Mode:
There are several ways to put the phone into download mode. You should try all of them that you can before you give up.
Recovery mode:
With the phone off (and not connected to the computer), and battery installed, hold all three buttons, vol- vol+ pwr continuously until the initial boot screen appears the second time.
Download mode:
1. With the phone off and connected to the computer via USB cable, and battery installed, hold all three buttons, vol- vol+ pwr.
2. With the phone off and battery installed, hold vol- and vol+ (but not pwr) while plugging in the USB cable.
3. With the phone off and battery installed, hold vol- (but not vol+ or pwr) while plugging in the USB cable.
4. Attempt each of the above three options with the battery removed from the phone. The computer will supply the power to the phone.
5. Use Android Debug Bridge (adb) which will only work if USB debugging has been already turned on in Developer Options, since you can't boot into the system to turn it on. With the battery installed and the phone connected to the pc via USB cable, use the command "adb reboot download".
6. Use a USB jig. With the battery installed insert the USB jig into the USB connector of the phone. Some have reported that this method works when no other method would work.
If the phone will go into download mode, you will need to use Odin desktop to flash the stock firmware. You should use the latest stock firmware. Go to the Download Repository and download Odin3 v1.85 from the link near the top of the page, and also download the latest stock firmware, "I777UCMD8 Stock Binaries (Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean)" from near the bottom of the page. It's the next to last item. Download both to your Windows pc, and then follow the detailed instructions below to flash it onto your phone.
How to use stand-alone Odin3 to flash firmware:
Follow and recheck each of the following steps. Do them in order listed, as some steps are dependent on previous steps. Instructions are for Odin3 v1.85. It should work with any version of Odin, but some details, like color of items, may be different.
1.) Open Odin on the Windows Desktop.
2.) Have the USB cable plugged into USB port on the computer, but *Not* plugged in to the phone.
3.) Shut the phone off.
4.) While holding down the vol+ & vol- keys, plug micro-usb plug into phone.
5.) In Odin, you should get the yellow box under where it says ID:COM with the text 0:[COMx], and in the Message area, <ID:0/00x> Added!! where x is some number, usually 1-8.
6.) In Odin, make sure Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time are checked and all other items are not checked.
7.) Click on the PDA button. Browse to the tar file you want to install and select it so its path appears in the text edit box next to the button.
8.) Make sure the check box next to the PDA button is checked.
9.) Click the Start button.
10.) You should see the green progress bar advancing.
11.) When complete, you will get a PASS (or FAIL if unsuccessful).
The phone should boot up normally. If it does not, enter recovery (see instructions in the download mode section) and perform a wipe data/factory reset.
