I'll assume that you have also enabled USB debugging (just want to ensure )
try
Code:
adb kill-server
if that doesn't work if you hadn't already rebooted I would try that.
if that didn't work try another usb port/cable

Usb debugging is on, have tried reboots.. Found it curious that both the s3 and s4 would do the same thing...

hmm...im not sure. i actually had a similar issue with an AT&T S4 last week, and i also couldnt figure it out. however, i returned the device for other reasons.

I would try another USB cable if possible. In the past I have had issues with Samsung phones regarding data connectivity either adb/odin.

i have never had any problems with any USB cable i've used, but it doesnt hurt to give it a try. Maybe you'll find it is the cable's problem.

Are you using USB 3.0 ports? I tried on my new desktop and ODIN wouldn't find my phone, but I used it on my Windows 8 laptops with USB 2.0 and it worked fine.

I've tried multiple cords, and different ports.. Going to try a different computer tomorrow...

i had a problem with a driver just going kapoot on my recently. i tried uninstalling and reinstalling, still no good. i removed all other drivers and software that i thought may be related to the problem, but the problem still persisted.
in the end, i just backed up all my important data to an external HDD and did a complete restore of Windows 7. All my problems were gone. I'm not saying this is what you should do or that this is your only options, but what I am saying is you could always restore to this.

I had the same issue and found that after plugging into my laptop where I initially rooted, the phone wanted me to allow USB debugging from my desktop; perhaps I had never done so in the first place...
Anyway, long press on home button and see if maybe you just need to find the notification, as I understand it can get buried under everything and not pop up...
Other than that, I'm not sure what to tell you. Maybe try the universal ADB driver from the folks at CWM?

I have noticed that some ROM's will enable debugging, I personally run a MAC. But you may want to check those settings to see if its enabled/disabled. But if your charging on it you should be good. Have you tried to odin back to stock and seeing if that helps?
Other thing: do you have the samsung drivers installed on your PC? even if you don't you should still see the external storage just not the internal.

What rom are you using? If you are running one of the test CM7 builds you have to download the Google drivers from the Android SDK.
Does your phone show up when you mount it as external memory? Did you install the drivers and kies as an administrator?
exact same scenario!
I am having the exact same issues as the OP! Except that i have the unbranded gt-i9000. My galaxy s is completely stock, no custom firmware or launchers. Heck, after the last factory reset, not even any apps!
I have tried every suggestion on every search i could do. I have 4 computers with xp sp3, win7 sp1, ubuntu 10.04.1, and mac os x 10.5.8. Nothing is working on any of them. I've even tried different usb cables, just to rule that out.
Could it be a samsung hardware issue?

Unable to use Odin

My Samsung Galaxy Note II (Verizon) won't show up in Odin. I've installed the samsung drivers but its doesn't recognize the phone. I can go into download mode on my phone, but I'm stuck in a boot loop. What can I do? Any help is much appriciated
I'm having the same issue on Windows 8 64 bit. I had all drivers in place and everything worked perfect. Usb MTP and PTP, in both regular and usb debugging modes. Adb worked and Odin worked. I unlocked a Note 2 for a buddy using the updated casual (as of 5/3) method. I had issues with Casual that I could only fix by uninstalling my drivers and allowing it to install it's own. Now when I connect my rooted Note or any Note, the computer can only see the phone in Camera (PTP) WITHOUT Usb debugging on. The computer can't see it in any other mode. No adb or odin.
I've uninistalled the drivers, reinstalled them, installed Kies, used another Note 2 tool and allowed it to install the drivers. Uninstalled them and let the computer decide which drivers. Every time I get the same result. I can only see the phone in Camera mode without debugging on.
Any help would be appreciated!

USB Debgging Mode
Yeah, I am having the a same problem. Although I rooted my i605 and had the TWRP Recover, decided to go back to stock using http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2040264 . Well Verizon sent an OTA last night and I clicked update on accident, and now it is in a boot loop. I can get into download mode but odin does not see the device, I am almost positive that this is because I cannot put the device into USB Debugging Mode.
More research is need for now, but your sounds like the same thing.

That has got to be the problem. Is there any way to turn on debugging mode even with a looping boot? It was on before this problem occured, but it must have been switched at some point when I tried to root.
Usb debugging and download are different modes. I've odin'ed countless times. The problem is in the drivers. I'm still tinkering but cant get them to see the device.

Believe me I am very new to this but extremely tech savvy, I have spent almost all of my work day searching XDA and numerous other sites and I have not found a way.
Unfortunately this is on me i know after i rooted and loaded the Jedi ROM, that I had set the updates to stop, but I guess I forgot to when I "unrooted". Oh well you live you learn, that's how I started on computers back in the day, break it and fix it all day long, lol
I've exhausted everything I can think of. I'm about ready to try my old W7 computer and if that fails, I'll go back to XP.

OP, will you update the title with "Unable to use Odin (Driver Issue)" to hopefully draw attention of a developer or someone with more knowledge. As stated, it'll quickly be dismissed as a noob problem where it is very clearly not at this point.

Josh I cannot help but think that if these two do not go hand in hand then why would every instructable on this advise to first set USB Debugging Mode to On, then reboot to download mode??
Like I said I am new to this and do my research before hacking anything up, so i may be incorrect.

If you're using an automated program to hack your phone then usb debugging is required so it can send adb commands to the phone telling it to reboot to download mode. However, without usb debugging enabled, you can power off and manually boot to download mode and Odin will work all the same.
Most tutorials and tools are noob friendly and it's easier for them to send the "adb reboot bootloader" command then to instruct the user to do it manually.
I've been rooting since the HTC Eris so I'm no noob. I'm not a developer either but I'm 99.9% sure the problem is driver related.

Interesting, thanks for schooling me! Now I am completely lost!!!
I have 2 perfectly fine Note 2's in my hand (both rooted and rom'ed) and can't get my computer to recognize either accept for in a Camera mode without usb debugging enabled.
Let's try to get a common ground here. When did everyone unlock their bootloaders? More specifically, when did you use Adam Outler's (big props to that guy) tool on your computer?
I just plugged my Note 2 in my work computer with usb debugging enabled and it sees it perfectly. So something driver related is messed up on my computer.

Actually that's why I Un-Rooted mine, I used Adams Method and the loaded the Jedi ROM, when I connected it to the pc after after a couple days it would only recognize as PTP not MTP?!? This was only with USB Debugging Mode enabled, if I turned it off it did not recognize it at all. So I decided to Un-root the device, then a week later I get the OTA and selected update and now it is dead
April 28th Rooted & ROM'ed
May 3rd Back to Stock

Where is he? The issue is probably with the driver. He can connect and go to device manager. He'll have to open up some of the universal serial bus and see what the computer recognizes the phone as. If you can't tell, unplug it and see which on the list goes away. Re-plug if it comes back, update drivers with the Samsung drivers. That should put him back in business (you too).

And you're in Odin? It should be a Samsung Composite or Fastboot Device or something of that nature. I don't think it should see your phone as a phone in Odin. Have you tried changing the drivers or just uninstalling/reinstalling?

i605 Note 2 to PC will not connect.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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?

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.
Also check out the OP in this thread:

And if that doesn't help you can always try the code in the last post of this page and see if it works:

ive redownloaded it, so ill give it another try. are you saying just have it downloaded and then do nothing with it? or do you somehow get it to connect? i mean just having it as a presents on the computer to have something else connect seems odd to me but hell im down for whatever at this point. ima load it up now and try.

Odin wont detect the phone

[SOLVED - It was a rubbish usb cable I was using]
Just got a s3 today after selling my htc one x and I want to root. I know hwp to do it but odin wont detect the phone. Tried restarting and using other usb ports but it still doesn't work. Not sure what the problem is.
Any help would be much appreciated. Cheers

are you into download mode first of all? if yes, then are the drivers installed on pc after connecting the phone in download mode? did you stop kies in the background? :good:

I thought keis needed to run for the drivers. Even when I try to connect to keis it won't detect though

As @sriram231092 said correctly you have to stop ALL of kies related processes.
The kies is important so your OS will have the required drivers so the device could be recognized.
After installing kies, make sure you do a reboot and then, just before you start ODIN close all the kies related processes.
I also suggest you run ODIN as admin if you're running win 7 or above.

hmm, I think it might be the USB cable, it doesn't detect even when I try to use mass storage. Have ordered a new yesterday.

Does device manager(DM) recognizes your device ? try to uninstall drivers from DM and re-connect your phone.
I also suggest using back door input for your usb.

Solved!!
It was the cable that is sh*t, not the phone or the computer.
Cheers guys!
Great news!
Enjoy your soon-to-be-rooted S3

Try to restart your pc/laptop? Take out the usb cable, restart windows, stop kies, start odin, plug in usb and it should say added.
Ps: you only needed kies to install your phone drivers, so make sure it has installed the drivers, you can check by normally starting your phone, plug in usb and see a popup msg.

Yeah, I am already loving it. Installed ARHD pretty much straight away.
I'm much preferring this phone to the one x I had, everything right down to the volume of the speaker I think is better.
Well it's great to hear
Actually I have 2 S3 at home the other one is my mom's, I've installed for her SAMMY based and I've got AOSP based kinda having the cake and eat it

P769 hard brick?

a day after i rooted and flashed a rom on my l9, it just died, idk how. can't get into any kind of "mode". the strange thing is when i connect is via usb it tries to connect but a dialog box comes up in the bottom right saying "USB device not recognized" it makes the connect/disconnect sound over and over until i unplug it. Device manager doesn't show anything, it just keeps refreshing because the device is attempting to connect. I've tied different cables and different ports also, and no luck.
any help will be greatly appreciated, thanks
