Try a older version of Odin... I had problems with a new version so tried a older one and it worked this might not be your problem but its worth trying a few things

Close Kies from the system tray.
It is closed but again same problem
Are you using a HTC or Nokia usb cable?
1. use the original cable
2. kill all kies* pocesses in task manager
3. kill/shutdown all other htc/nokia/whatsoever software if present on your PC
4. try different USB plug (my friend had such problem with odin)
5. try different PC ;-)
should work...

Galaxy S3 not being recognized in odin in download mode
Could someone please assist.
My rooted Galaxy S3 phone (FW v4.1.2) is stuck at the Samsung startup screen after installing a font app from the app store
To resolve I have tried:
1. The recovery screen - doing a factory reset and reboot
2.. Reflash through ODIN.
I can get get the phone into download mode but ODIN will not recognize the phone in Download mode (Funny that phone is recognised by Odin at the stuck Samsung boot screen)
- I have unistalled and reinstalled KIES and USB drivers
- I am using the stock USB cable
- Tried different USB ports on computer
- Tried on different computers
The problem may be Windows driver related. Because phone gets stuck at the Samsung startup screen, all processes of driver installation do not conclude successful. "MTP USB Device" shows error in Windows Device manager, USB composite deivce.
Uninstalled and reinstalled these a couple of times without success.
Please assist
Issues with usb on s3
Actually fixed my own Question....
My phone was in download mode and was not being recognized by my computer my windows 7 computer. I pressed the usb icon, where a box popped up saying that there was an unknown device. You could find this in device manager.
I then went to device manager to update the driver instead of pointing the device directly to the driver when i clicked browse my computer for software then it shows a location and option to let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer then a box pops up showing model above that there is a little check box uncheck that two boxes will appear with manufacturer and model
Scroll samsung electronics and model samsung mobile composite device that is what you want to update the driver to...
I pulled the battery then re-entered download mode and windows to over installing the rest now it works fine. I would attach images but it will not let me for some reason. if anyone can help with that I will do it later.
THIS COULD POSSIBLY help with devices not being found on computers in bootloader or just on rom loaded and running..

Hey guys, i know it's a bit late now, but i had exactly the same problem with my gt-i9300 (got stuck on samsung splash screen and odin didn't recognize it in download mode) and just realised that everytime, i connected my phone to my PC in download mode, a message would appear that "Gadget Device" (or something like that) was connected. Then i searched in my device manager for the name of it (i found it under USB-Devices) and uninstalled the driver of it. As i connected it again with odin started it would install the driver automatically and *swoosh* odin recognized it.
A year and some later after the last post and I seem to be having this problem as well... I believe it was due to a bad flash at very low battery level which ended up in encryption failure ya da da, factory reset, clear/format everything and flash custom rom from SD because any other connection would not work.... then managed to get windows (many flavors inc. 7, 8 and 10) to connect as MTP or in USB debugging mode but Odin mode (download) just won't do anything... i put the phone in DL mode, nothing happens, no windows connection sounds, no changes in devices manager, even when searching for new hardware. I'd be very interested to know if anyone has had anything like that. I'd really like to flash stock to go back to a custom rom, flash twrp to replace cwm but all seems to no avail if i can't get a connection while in DL mode.
tried to install adb fastboot but also nada since no connection is being made.... might be something with DL mode gone awry with the bad flash... long story but OTA update from current ROM decided on its own to push update even though battery was at 5% and no user interaction ever happened...
we'll see what happens...
after replacing mainboard of my s3 gt-i9300 my computer doesn't recognize phone at all in download mode but in while phone is on

Are you using the original Samsung USB cable when the phone is in download mode?

same thing is happening to me
May sound stupid but need to start at the most basic level, have you tried other usb ports?
Are you trying it on USB 3 or USB 2 ports? Mine acts a little funny sometime on the USB 3 port, however it is rock solid on the USB 2 port.
Connecting to PC
Try this, go to start button, right click on my computer and click on device manager. Under Device manager you should see MTP device. If there is non visible, then you will need to download the Samsung Galaxy S3 usb drivers. If you do see this device then uninstall the drivers and click on delete drivers. Then scan for hardware changes and click on automatically look for drivers( it will download them from the internet)
This is what I did and it worked for me
P.S it does not matter if you plugged it into a USB 2 or USB 3 port.

Bricked, my PC doesn't detect phone.

Hello everyone, i need help.
I have tried to root samsung galaxy s3. I was using Odin and it failed :/
Now i can only enter download mode on phone but my PC doesn't detect phone at all. I will try tomorrow other PC and other USB cable, but do you guys have any advice that can help me?
I have installed fresh Win 7, USB drivers and i have tried few versions of Odin and Kies too (it doesn't detect phone either).

If download mode works , then the problem is the usb cable or the samsung driver on the PC , here is the lastest driver , If ODIN 3.10.7 detects the device try to flash TWRP-3.0.2-0 TAR as AP , if it worked reboot in recovery and the rest is up to you witch rom you gonna flash , note this is for custom roms only like CyanogenMod
Thank mate Installed TWRP and CM13, everyhing works well Changed USB cable and managed to get phone detected, quality USB cable makes difference.

Hi, I have a similar situation, no power, no charge, no download mode, I even connect the USB jig and nothing. Everything happened when trying to restore boot with CWM. After reboot the phone went to hard brick state

Well the battery is discharged , that's why it doesn't boot , There must be something wrong or with the charger or with the usb cable , most of the time is the cable , after you manage to boot , try to flash TWRP instead CWM

Thanks for your prompt reply.
I tested the cable and charger in other phones and they work fine. In the other hand the S3 was at 30% by the time I restarted it and never came back to life. Also when I connect it to the PC there is no sign of the S3 on the device manager.
