[Q] Dead Note I717 Please Help!!! - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

Hello All,
OK so here is the deal. I have done a ton of searching and reading and as it helped a lot I still have this issue. I bought this Note about a month ago used. I never rooted it nor do anything at all with it but literally make calls or text. I plugged it in the other night before bed to charge woke up the next day to find my note completely dead. after much research i found what i Believe to have is the dreaded SDS and that many people have this issue but with the S3 and Note 2. It did start freezing and such before it died but I never upgraded firmware or anything. So after my research I plugged the phone up to my Win 7 laptop and it began installing drivers but then failed to install. did more research and found that it had the missing qhsusb_dload driver. So after more research I finally found driver and installed it and now my laptop recognizes it but Kies does not recognize it nor does odin3 v3.07. now odin3 v1.85 on the other hand does recognize it. so it tried to flash the stock Rom but nothing odin never finishes. Is their any way at all to come out of this Sudden Death Syndrome and bring my phone back to life?? Please all help on this would be a god send!!! Also just to be clear this phone does nothing I get no picture, sounds lights/led or anything. the only sign of life this phone has is that when i plug it in to my laptop it gets recognized.

You don't get download mode? I you can get download mode, it should be salvagable.
Hold down volume down and power and plug in USB cable.

I cant tell if it gets into download mode. i get no image at all on the screen.

With Odin open, phone off, try the holding down volume and plugging up the usb as suggested. If you get download mode, you should be able to tell if Odin shows it in the block. Then try your flash.

yea I've tried that with odin3 v3.07 but it never got recognized but odin3 v1.85 did recognize it. it shows the block and i did everything it starts but never finishes. The very first time i did it though it did finish but with an error. after that time now it never finishes. I guess im probably down to just getting a new phone or sending this one to get JTAG'ed. but by all means if anyone else has any suggestions please feel free....

What exactly do you mean when you say Kies does not recognize yoir phone? Are you referring to the firmware version? As long as your computer recognizes the device, recognition of the firmware does not matter. Put phone in download mode, open Kies, tools, firmware recovery/upgrade and follow the prompts. Have your serial number handy because it will ask for it. When you enter the model number, use all caps (SGH-I717). 440Bro has a simple to follow guide here but they are closing the airplane door otherwise I would link it. Good luck.

Ignore that and run the firmware update and recovery. As long as the computer recognizes the device it should work.

Be sure you are using the stock usb cable and connected to a powered port. Also charge the battery fully before you begin.

What does the PC popup or do when you connect your device? Does the device show up in "my computer" ?
Since you can't see anything on the screen I want you to try something.
1. Pull battery and write down serial number
2. On PC open Kies, click "tools - Firmware Upgrade and Initialization"
3. Type in SGH-I717 (all caps)
4. Type in serial number
5. Replace battery
6. Hold volume down and power button together for 6 seconds then release both.
7. Press volume up button
8. Plug phone into PC and proceed with kies firmware recovery.
Hopefully that might get you somewhere.

I tried as you suggested but Kies will not recognize it so the Start Update tab stays greyed out. When I connect the phone to the PC I hear the PC do its sound and I see it show up in my device manager ( Not in my computer ) but in device manager of the computer and it shows up in the device manager as this " Qualcomm HS-USB QDloader 9008 (COM8) ". Now when I use Odin3 V1.85 the block highlights in yellow and says ( COM8). I do not think the phone is recognizing correctly because I stated earlier the first time I plugged this phone into my PC which was after this issue started never before while it was functional but when I plugged it up it started to install the drivers but would fail. it would say in the device manager of my PC that I had a missing driver. After looking for this mysterious driver called "qhsusb_dload driver" for hours I finally found it and installed it and then the phone installed without failing afterwords. The only sign of life my note has is when I plug it into my PC I hear the dong-dong sound that's it. With Odin3 I do not even have to do any type of volume/power combination as right when I plug it in Odin3 say's " <ID:0/008> Added!! " I then click on PDA and im prompted to choose the file. I choose file " KIES_HOME_I717UCMD3_I717ATTMD3_1117019_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5 " and hit start and this is what I get
<OSM> Enter CS for MD5..
<OSM> Check MD5.. Do not unplug the cable...
<OSM> Please wait..
<OSM> KIES_HOME_I717UCMD3_I717ATTMD3_1117019_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5
<OSM> Checking MD5 finished Sucessfully..
<OSM> Leave CS..
<ID:0/008> Odin v.3 engine (ID:8)..
<ID:0/008> File analysis..
<ID:0/008> SetupConnection..
It does nothing else unless I unplug it and it then tells me
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0/ failed 1)
<ID:0/008> Removed!!!
Ive left it without removing for hours with nothing. Is this rather common if a phone has the SDS issue?

I'm sorry to hear you are having all this trouble. The fact that odin recognizes it tells me there is some life left in your device. Kies not recognizing it is puzzling. You either have bad drivers, or a bricked device. I would try another PC and see if kies will recognize it, or if you can complete a flash on odin. If not I would send it to www.mobiletechvideos.com If it's bricked jtag repair is $40 bucks.

Try it on a different computer or laptop

Kies has a retarded amount of checks...
Use Odin. It's for us advanced users to manually flash when kies does this.
That's why Samsung releases the .tars...
They know this happens.
If Odin recognizes it, IT'S NOT BRICKED.

[Q] Stuck In Download Mode

after a couple failed odin flashes
my PHONE is STUCK in DOWNLOAD MODE and i can't use ODIN because my PC now says USB NOT RECOGNIZED
ive uninstalled/reinstalled driver
different ports..different usb cables..different pc and still no luck..and yes ive searched xda..and i have yet to find anyone with similar issues..any ideas?
i finally got my phone to work
IT SEEMS LIKE WINDOWS DOESNT BOTHER TO TRY TO INSTALL THE DRIVERS SO YOU HAVE TO DO IT MANUALLY THROUGH DEVICE MANAGER
1) download http://www.multiupload.com/NMPX3KMWRS
this has the 64 & 32 bit driver folders..put which ever one u use on ur desktop
2) open device manager..plug your phone..if your pc says usb not recognized and unknown device shows in device manager..right click..properties..then uninstall it..
3) unplug ur phone..plug it back in then unknow device should show up in device manager..go to its properties then click update driver..the select own drivers..then browse to the 64 or 32 bit folder and click ok then next..it will try to install but you might get a error..
hopefully it will say install gadget serial and fail..that means ur pc kinda recognizes it
then all u ahve to do is from there is go to device manager..go to the properties of gadget serial..update driver..and browse to the driver folder..and it should install..then u have to do it a couple of more times for when it recognizes other samsung devices such as the adb and composite
Instructions here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=803492
First, download http://www.multiupload.com/NMPX3KMWRS
This contains Odin, the Samsung Drivers, stock odin rom, updated odin rom, pit file.
If you don't want to lose your settings, etc. you can skip to the second part. If your phone still doesn't work than start from the top.
-PART 1-
Step 1.) Make sure you have the appropriate drivers installed for your phone. If you are on 64bit then choose 64, if you are on 32 choose 32. You may already have the drivers installed and it will tell you after you try to install them.
Step 2.) Power your phone off
Step 3.) Open Odin.exe and plug a usb cable to your computer that will connect to your phone (do not plug it in to the phone yet, just the computer)
Step 4.) Hold down both volume buttons at the same time and while holding them down plug the usb into your phone. You should see a COM message show up in Odin.
Step 5.) To ensure your phone is back to stock, in odin you will want to check the repartition button. ONLY CHECK IT WHEN YOU ARE FLASHING BACK TO STOCK. Leave the other check boxes the way they are.
Step 6.) Click the PIT button and select the 512.pit file
Step 7.) Click the PDA button and select Original.tar and then click Start
It should go through a bunch of steps and then your phone will reboot. Below are the steps to update it to the latest release.
Close Odin and power your phone off.
-PART 2-
Step 1.) Open Odin.exe and plug a usb cable to your computer that will connect to your phone (do not plug it in to the phone yet, just the computer)
Step 2.) Hold down both volume buttons at the same time and while holding them down plug the usb into your phone. You should see a COM message show up in Odin.
Step 3.) Leave all check boxes the way they are. Do NOT check the repartition box.
Step 4.) Click the PIT button and select the 512.pit file
Step 5.) Click the PDA button and select T959UVJI6.tar and then click Start
Hope this helps!!!
thanks for the idea..but i know how to do all that...

Hey, I know u said Odin wont recognize your phone, but does your computer recognize that the device or an unknown device has been attached when u plug your phone into the USB. What version of windows are you using.

yea that doesnt work & it wouldn't. because the pc has to recognize the phone before odin can..an that the issue! thanks tho
I've also got this probem. Did you by any chance install the voodoo thing? Apparently it messes up your phone if you flash over it.
I think I might buy one with a broken screen for 200ish...............but I really hope I dont have to.
Anyone have a fix for this yet?
@xaymaca i finally got mines to work after 48 hours but it seems like it depends on luck

then all u ahve to do is from there is go to device manager..go to the properties of gadget serial..update driver..and browse to the driver folder..and it should install..then u have to do it a couple of more times for when it recognizes other samsung parts.
it seems like windows doesnt want to install the drivers itself
um, you just tried alot with those drivers and it eventually worked out differently?

no basically first i uninstalled the "unknown device" through device manager
then i would plug the phone..go to device manager and update the drive manually..until gadget serial showed up..if not..i repeat the process..
then when gadget serial shows up..update its driver manually..then samsung adb should show up in device manager..it takes alot of time and patience
If your system still fails to recognize your phone. Try installing Mini Kies. Do a quick search there are plenty of download links for that software. Make sure you restart your system after uninstalling the device.
I had similar issues with myn. But eventually got over with by doing a clean install off the drivers.. Hope this helps.
so i did that and it recognized my phone. it says it on the computer and on odin it changed from 0:[COM4] to 1:[COM3]. but it still stays stuck on set PIT file DO NOT TURN OFF TARGET.

what tar and pit files are you using, i had similar issues when i tried odin'ing back to ji6. however odin'ing to stock JFD worked beautifully. if you need help finding the proper odin files here is a mirror of them: Odin Mirrors
This happened to me before, and someone mentioned it earlier. Get into device manager on windows, go to the Universal Serial Bus (USB) section, and I uninstalled every option you see in there. Restart your computer and windows will automatically reinstall those items apon reboot. The phone should now be detectable...
EDIT: Fail, it appears you already got it solved...
hey im not sure what tar abd pit files are. im really new to this. question, with the mirror how would i use it? will it still work with my phone trippin lol and not being picked up on my computer.

Rooting guide of Intratech DOES work! :)

Hi all! The rooting guide of Intratech given here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278 DOES NOT WORK! I have an SGS II Kernel version of KE8 (India) and I tried to follow the steps given in the guide, but when I open ODIN and connect my phone in Download mode with my laptop via USB Cable, ODIN is not connecting to the phone. The box meant to turn yellow does NOT change color. Nothing happens at all. Why is this so? I cannot post in the relevant thread because I am a newbie in the forun
Have you installed kies first to get the drivers?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA Premium App
Yes, of course, I have the latest version of Kies installed on my laptop and I use it regularly to connect with my SGS II. I kept Kies closed when trying the rooting procedure as mentioned in Intratech's guide. Started phone in download mode. Opened Odin on laptop, then connected phone via USB........the box which is supposed to turn yellow on connection, doesn't light up. Nothing happens at all.

I suggest to you that the overwhelming majority of the people who use the guide will disagree with you and provide evidence to the fact that it does, indeed, work. The fact that it does not work for you suggest that you are doing something wrong or have a problem with your computer.
I would suggest that you ensure that KIES is also closed in the system tray of your computer before opening Odin and connecting the phone. Also ensure that your computer has an internet connection and is able to connect to windows update to download and install drivers. If that doesn't work then change USB port or computer.
By all means, if you find a way that works then feel free to write your own guide. More information is good and maybe others might find your method, if you discover one, easier to follow.
@Intratech: Hi. Thanks for your reply. Ok, so it is not working for me. Can you help?
My laptop is working on Windows 7 Home Premium which is upto date in all respects. My USB port is working fine as I am able to connect my SGS II to Kies through that. Kies was closed when I tried to connect to Odin. Odin version is 1.85. While the phone (in download mode) is connected to the laptop, and Odin is Open, nothing happens. Nothing.

Is kies closed in the system tray as well?
Yes, Kies is closed in system tray also. Fully closed. Odin opens, and I see the Odin screen as per your screen shots, but the box which is supposed to light up yellow, does not.
Are you using the Samsung USB cable or a HTC one?
Samsung USB cable which came with the phone box pack. I can see the Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time boxes checked. Nothing else is checked, not even the PDA button. The box saying ID:COM (which is supposed to light up) is blank.
u need to check pda and load the file u want to flash it
then click on start
Look in your program and features list, found in control panel, and see if you have a listing for Samsung USB driver for mobile phones there. If you do then uninstall it and uninstall KIES. Download a new copy of KIES from Samsung and install it. After installing it, make sure you don't have USB debug ticked, connect the phone and leave it until all the drivers install. After that remove the device and lose KIES. Put the tick in USB debugging and connect the phone and leave it so that any needed drivers install. After this put the phone in download mode and connect it, without opening KIES or ODIN, and leave it to download any drivers needed. If it downloads and install any drivers wait for it to finish, once it does then you can go ahead and use Odin normally.
If this doesn't work your PC is at fault, fix it.

How you going to flash without connecting to the device?
Turn USB debugging off on phone .USB connection should be to a motherboard port .
Reboot phone set phone to connect in USB mass storage mode .
Connect cable wait for Windows to load drivers . You should be able to browse phone via Windows explorer if USB drivers are correct .If so remove cable and reboot phone to download mode . Open Odin select files to load connect cable .
That fails then
Rooting guide of intratech does not work! for you your PC or your phone but for everyone else so give up .
jje
@cyberwarfare: Yes, I tried that. The file loaded, I pressed start. Yet nothing happened. I just saw one line notification in the left hand side column of Odin, which read something like "successes: 0/failures: 0". I am speaking from memory here. Nothing really happened even after loading PDA and pressing the Start button.
@Intratech: Yes, both Kies and Samsung USB Driver for Mobile Phones are there in my program list. I downloaded Kies from their India support site : http://www.samsung.com/in/support/d...1&prd_mdl_cd=GT-I9100LKAINU&srchword=GT-I9100
Worth mentioning here that the USB debug check box was ticked when I tried to Root with Odin.
So basically, you're asking me to uninstall & reinstall Kies and its drivers. Ok, will do. It will take time so will do it when I have a little more time on my hands. Thanks for your help & your time. I appreciate. If you have time, then look at my other post here which says, "7 major issues with SGS II" ...... and help with solving my other issues like that of bluetooth not connecting and phone ringer's erratic behaviour. Thanks a ton.
Mate I haven't used the Indian firmware so I'm not too sure about troubleshooting it. There is an Indian thread in the general forum where you may be able to get more help with the issues you have.
@JJEgan: Thanks for replying. All my USB Ports are on the motherboard itself, worth mentioning that the same USB port works fine when I connect the phone to the laptop. Am able to transfer files to and fro via the same USB port.
"set phone to connect in USB mass storage mode".....how do I do that? Where to find that in phone settings?
I am able to browse the contents/files on the phone very well...so this proves my drivers are fine. So which basically means, that Intratech's rooting guide does not work FOR ME! Happy? This may be a problem specific to the India specific phones....Kernel version is 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKE8-CL214845

@Intratech: Thanks mate. I've posted my problem in the India specific thread also.....lets see if someone replies. But the problem is not with the rooting procedure, the problem is that I can't even seem to get started with the procedure as there is no connection between Odin and the phone.
Nah, it's not with the firmware. The other Indians who use it have no issue following the guide.
Please try and reinstall everything as I've stated and see if that work. Also, when you go into download mode what do you see on the screen?
In download mode I see a static warning on the screen which tells me of the risk and tells me I have to press the VOL down button to cancel this, and there is a yellow triangle at the bottom. The screen stays there as I connect the USB cable to the laptop.

You need to read the instructions start off by reading what it says on that screen .Do not read half of the instructions like you are its very dangerous flashing if you cannot read and follow the instructions and i advice you dont flash .
The screen message you are not reading is the sentence above the one you posted .
To install custom rom press Vol Up key .

Right this is your problem, you have not put the phone in download mode as yet. Press volume up at this screen to enter download mode and now you will connect.

[Q] USB connection problem

Hi guys,
Yesterday I tried to install CF-Root via Odin. The process wouldn't work as I got stuck on:<ID:0/009> Added!!
<ID:0/009> Odin v.3 engine (ID:9)..
<ID:0/009> File analysis..
<ID:0/009> SetupConnection..
So I tried changing USB ports and re-installing drivers.
Since then my PC (win7 64bit) does nothing when I connect my phone, I tried KIES connection troubleshooter and it made no difference. I tried uninstalling drivers and KIES several times now. Still, neither KIES nor my PC can see phone.
The only thing that happens when I connect my S2 is short bleep on my phone and message saying MTP initialisation and MTP connected.
Any help please?
Different USB cables, then different PC given you've already tried different USB ports & uninstalling/reinstalling Kies/drivers.
One little thought just popped into my head tho before you do that, when you've got Odin fired up & the phone connected via USB, have you checked task manager or similar & made doubly sure Kies or any of its associated processes aren't running ? Odin needs the drivers to work obviously, but doesn't like it/normally won't work if Kies/its processes are running at the same time.
If you've already done all of the above (minus trying it on another PC/different version of Windoze), does the phone boot normally i.e do you still have stock firmware installed/working on the phone after the flash you tried barfed ?
I don't think it's the cable or phone as it worked before I re-installed the drivers and KIES. Can't do anything in ODIN since my PC is not detecting my phone at all.
I still have stock rom etc because I never actually got to the point of flashing.
Have tried several ports now and still, nothing happens on my PC when I connect the phone:/

No it doesn't. But it used to do before I started mucking about with my drivers and reinstalling them.
Phone seems to be connecting just fine, I get the USB icon in the upper left corner and notification saying MTP connected. Any ideas?
Thanks
Ok... so it looks like PC can finally see my S2 again.
Unfortunately, I am still stuck on:

<ID:0/010> Odin v.3 engine (ID:10)..
<ID:0/010> File analysis..

Does anyone have any ideas please? I'm running out of options here.
Thanks
Usual story is user not using Samsung cable not using mainboard USB port not flashing correct file not following the instructions .
Total removal of Kies and all registry settings followed by clean install .
Thats it not much else in the fix my USB list apart from dirty USB .
jje
If your pc see's your phone it's defo something you have or have not done!!
Thats why I said forget kies and odin and asked if pc sees it
Are you plugged directly into a USB port on the computer, and not a hub, or something with a USB pass-through, like a keyboard?
Someone else was having issues, and turned out they were plugged through their keyboard pass-through. Once they plugged directly into the computer, they were fine.
I'm plugged in directly to motherboard ports and using Garmin satnav cable.
I tried using original samsung cable but nothing happens when I connect my phone with it. In other words PC doesn't see the phone when connected via samsung cable.
Any ideas?

So... shows connected and partially works with Garmin satnav cable. Doesn't show connected at all with Samsung cable.
Sounds like issues with both cables. More severe with the Samsung cable.
Try another cable altogether.
try removing battery and insert it again.

Lol, what has battery go to do with the USB issue of OP over here
@OP , try running 'Odin' as administrator and see, if the same problem persists then try Cleaning the 'Micro usb port' of the phone and see

i have had the same problem with the MTP not initializing.. done everything, reinstalled drivers and wathever...
removing the battery and inserting again made my MTP connection working.
somehow the MTP is then reinitialized.

[Q] (Q) Odin stuck at setup connection

Just got a new Samsung Galaxy S3 and I've been trying to do the quick CF-root
- Model Number GT-I9300
- Baseband Version: I9300XXLE8
Its completely stock, I wanted to root it particularly to get rid of the bloatware. To the best of my knowledge I've done everything correctly.
USB debug on
No Kies running in the background
Odin detects the phone connection when in download mode ("added" appears)
pick the .tar file, make sure repartition is unchecked
hit the start button and it gets stuck at "setupconnection" in Odin.
Also tried running odin in administrator mode taking out the battery for a while to no avail.
Your advice is much appreciated.
Try a different USB port.
Do not connect through USB hub
Try another port (as previous post)
Another USB cable
USB debugging on
KIES process not running in PC tsk manager
Could also try uncheck "reset time"

Sorry to take so long to reply. I've tried all the above except untick reset time.
An interesting note is that I recently tried to flash my Samsung Galaxy S1 as well and it comes up with the same problem. I kind of gave up on the matter and accepted that I can't root my S3, for now anyway.
Any further information would be grateful but not a priority for now.
Have you tried the other rooting method??

Odin v3.04
Try the latest version of Odin:
NEW: ODIN v3.04
and or
1. try a different PC
2. reinstall drivers
I do have similar problem but that's because I wasn't in download mode. Are u sure u in download mode?

TRY THIS
This happens to me too (new unlocked S3)
I had also given up but then I figured out how to get past it by accident:
When it is stuck, just unplug the USB cable, then plug it back in, and ODIN happily kicks in and does the flash with a successful PASS result.
Done it quite a few times now.
Jsut a weird quirk of the S3 it seems (my old Note was fine).
BTW I tried different USB ports, nonhubs, cables, ODIN183, 187, 304 etc. All did same, until I found this trick, and BTW I am actually flashing via a hub now and it works fine with this trick.
Hope this helps.
Yup, certain I was in download mode.
Wow the trick worked, very interesting.
thank you very much asifanwaruk, and to everyone else who replied.
Closing all Kies processes via the Task Manager did the trick for me. Thanks!
Hi all,
i flashed at first the "normal" CWM recovery via heimdall on win7, and after it didnt work for latest CM9 nightlies, i was trying to
install the "touch" version ... after the "PASS" in Odin3, the device rebooted ... but after going to the recovery again, i ended up
in the old CWM one ... can someone help me out to re-install a working recovery?
thanks for help
Flash back a stock Rom then re-root with cf root
Changing to a different cable and port worked for me. Thanks ya'll.
Just putting it in download mode fixed mine. Try that
same problem here, just unplugged the cable in setup connection and plug in back quickly and works just fine, tnx to all.....
worked
just simply unplug battry, remove sd card, put back the battry, problem solved
Stuck on setup connection
Hi Guys...
Please try the following
ODIN/Download Mode
1. Make sure your device is completely off
2. Volume Down, While holding this key down simultaneously press the Power button until you see a disclaimer on the screen
3. Then let go of both buttons and press Volume Up to accept the disclaimer
4. Once the green robot is visible on the screen this indicates that handset is in now ODIN/Download mode
GOOD LUCK:good:
thanks alot ''Could also try uncheck "reset time" is helping me alot for nexus i9250..
thank you
im a little bit late (LOL)but are you you are in download mode LOL ! ! !

This is on my Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini Lte GT-i9195 . Strangely enough i managed to flash the GT-i9190 using the LineageOS 14.1 with the custom clockwork . However my Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini Lte GT-i9195 nothing happens on Odin .
The screen has the following under download mode in odin :
Odin Mode
Product Name : GT-i9195
Current Binary : Samsung official
System status : Official
Knox kernal lock : 0x0
Knox warranty void : 0x1
CSB-CONFIG-LSB : 0X30
BOOTLOADER RP SWREV : 2
WRITE PROTECTION : ENABLE
This is not my first flash , Im familiar with the flashing processes , I've done 3 phones . I tried cyanogenmod , LineageOS and various other stock roms all worked fine . My issue is I have no Boot recovery image . Nothing wants to flash via odin . Stock software crashed so I decided to repair it since it was out of warranty period , No matter what i do nothing works , i can flash perfectly on other samsung devices from the same port , the same pc , tried different roms , thinking roms were damaged via download or extraction . The best of my S4 Mini's are dead the LTE version anyone has a solution give me a shout out please .

I sure hope you're in the right forum, your Odin says Epic 4G for some reason.
Have you tried starting Odin on the PC before plugging in your phone?

i have version 1.85 and it says epic 4g idk why though.
Huh. Maybe I just never had to use Odin that much and it really does say that. :silly:
Anyway, yj121 did you go ahead and try starting Odin first, then plugging your phone in? Did that not work?

this is what comes up
EDIT: So I guess you have to plug the phone into the computer to get into download mode, but it should work so long as Odin is already running. Your picture seems to indicate that Odin is indeed recognizing your phone and attempting to write to it, so that's good.
You should tell us what you're trying to do, what packages you downloaded, what happened to your phone beforehand, what guides you're following, etc. More information will help us figure out what you're having problems with. Then maybe someone smarter than I can help you figure out what's happening.

plug in your phone to the computer (while its on) and hold down power, volume up and down buttons. when the thing pops up, let go of all the buttons and hit volume up, that should bring you into download mode.
OR
turn ur phone off, while plugging in your powered-off phone to the computer, hold the volume up and down button.
I edited my post again. Tell us what you're trying to do, someone else will hopefully help you out, because I'm pretty stumped at this point.

I'm trying to go to stock rom, like firmware that came out-of-the-box but everytime i try to use ODIN it doesnt let me, ive tried mutiple ways such as disabling debugging, trying to use different .tar files, different versions of odin, different ways of going into odin (starting odin first, plugging phone in/out of odin) restarting my phone several times, pulling out sim/sd card, making sure kies isnt running in the background, etc. none of these ways work for me. everytime i go, ODIN gets stuck on SetupConnection.. or it goes after SetupConnection but then fails at Complete(Write) operation failed. i have also tried using a one click thing where i just plug in the phone, and then i hit start and it should go (Picture attatched) but that doesnt seem to work either. ive been doing this the ENTIRE day and its starting to frustrate me because there is no way to go back to stock firmware in case i have to give in my phone for repair or something.
I didn't say this earlier because its obvious. But u do have the proper drivers already installed for the phone I assume....

yea i already have the right drivers installed, i checked in device manager before i started
This could be due to a number of possible issues: The computer you are using, USB port, USB cable, usb driver, user error. Those are the main things to look at.
In Windows 7 "Uninstall or change a program" dialog (or Add Remove Programs in earlier versions) you should see SAMSUNG USB Driver for Mobile Phones. If you suspect it is a driver issue, uninstall this item, reboot and reinstall, then reboot again.
However, first I would suspect a bad cable or a bad port. Just changing ports, or changing to a good cable (the one that came with the phone is usually the best choice) could solve the problem. Or using a different computer.
Just to make sure it's not user error, here is a set of checkpoints:
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. Success!
