Hey, whenever i go onto Odin v 1.84 and plug in the usb to the laptop and to my Galaxy ace s5830i, the usual connection in the id area does not appear. I have already downloaded and installed and tested over 20 different samsung drivers, but still no recognition is made from odin when the phone is in download mode, and connected to the laptop. However, this has not always been the case, for i factory reset my laptop yesterday, and before the factory reset, i was able to use odin because it was able to recognise my phone.
This is very concerning for me. Before i factory reset my laptop, i was able to unbrick 8 samsung galaxy aces, but now i cannot unbrick any. I have also had different versions of odin such as odin v 3.09 and odin v 4.38 and still i am unable to get odin to recognise this s5830i. If anybody could send a reply, i would be extremely grateful because i am very desperate to get this working again.
If odin is not working because there are some settings on the laptop that need changing, please tell me! The laptop is back to factory settings, so has the settings as it did in the shop.
For ur info: Laptop= Windows 7 HP Compaq presario CQ57
Phone= Samsung galaxy ace s5830i
Please reply asap, i am very desperate!
Fixed...
After about 17 hours of struggling to fix this problem, i turned to automatic driver update, and this fixed the problem. Next time, it would be extremely useful if you replied to this thread. Thanks anyway :good:

Hello,
I have the same problem, can you explain te me how did u do ?
Connect ur phone to ur laptop via a USB cable when the phone is switched on...u will see driver updates going on on screen... If not go to laptop settings and turn on automatic updates... And try again. Make sure USB debugging is enabled on ur phone in settings, applications and development... Thanks

As per the title, device manager doesn't change when I plug the phone in, tried two different computers and two different cables, flashed the stock firmware back, and still nothing.
It charges when I plug it in and SOMETIMES brings up the MTP-Initialization logo thing, but never gets any further.
Is my GS2 goosed yet again?
Edit: Tried on my PS3 as well and still charges, but won't ask to mount the SD card or anything, so I'm back to my trusty HTC HD2, wondering whether I should sell the GS2 once it's repaired and get a Galaxy Nexus...
Hah, another HD2 veteran, it's like everyone from the HD2 forum is now here... even the devs. Anyway, may be a stupid question, but are you always trying with the same USB cable?
Disable usb debug mode
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Tried two different cables as stated in my OP, and it doesn't matter whether USB Debugging is on or off. I'm taking it back to the service centre after work today, and I'm probably going to sell it after.
I've had the camera go.
I've had it not vibrating at all.
I've had problems with spots on the camera lens.
I think I'm going to put some money to the sale of it, and get a Galaxy Nexus, hopefully the built quality will be at least a little better...
Solution is in the phone
Dear All
Following are my observations and possible steps to
1. When the phone is upgraded to Android 2.3.4 and above (mine is 2.3.6) Kies stops recognizing the phones and USB connection / Serial port connections etc get reset on the phone
2. Even if proper drivers are there on the laptop (mine is Windows 7 64bit) they are not recognized
3. Device Manager shows "unknown device"
4. Updating the driver also does not result in any help
5. solution lies in the phone
a. key in the dialer *#7284#
b. it has 4 option there..
UART (MODEM/PDA)
USB (MODEM/PDA)
c. For USB. select the PDA.if it already selected to PDA. reselect it by select MODEM and then PDA again.. Only change the USB setting.. andthen press back. try reconnect (thanks to napi1 @ androidforums.com/samsung-galaxy-s2-international/447145-sgs2-kies-not-syncing-os-2-3-5-a.html#post3484588)
6. The Laptop will start recognizing the required drivers and install them
also
Phone is not recognized by laptop when it is in USB debug mode, MyPhoneExplorer does not recognize when it is not in Debug mode
Hope this helps

Thank you !!!
Unbelievable! Thank you soo Much!
Helps also on Mac 10.6.8
Thanks a lot mate..I was afraid that i'll have to take it to service center. This helped me.
thanks people!...even i had upgraded to 2.3.6 and usb mode just wouldnt work....
this solved that problem though..
Fantastic tip!
It worked! Now my S2 can be detected by the PC.
Thanks a million!
Doing a factory reset after backing up data will solve the problems.
Still Hasn't worked for me. I'm getting no USB function other than Charge. Its working as if the USB isn't plugged in at all.
Is there anyway of reinstalling the MTP application on the phone? When i find it through App manager its showing with no size and no options inside (clear data or clear cache)
Kies isn't working as far as the phone is concerned there is no USB connection at all.
I know ICS is coming within a few days for GS2 owners, will this clear the problem???
So frustrating.
Thanks in advance if anybody can help

same with mine. mine still doesnt work with the dialer *#7284# and with debugging off or on. ive unistalled and reinstalled the driver serveral times and nothing and this has happened to me on my hero and my sgs2 dozens of times, its so annoying =[. at one point i manged to get all but the usb storage drivers installed. what else can i do ???
Same problem
Same problem here, tried everything (to my knowledge). Someone told me it had to do with the battery overheating because I had use the charger from another phone. For about 2 days my phone would go on vibrate randomly and started the connection process (like a usb cable was connected). It could do that non stop for a few hours. Now that Im back to my original charger, it stoped, but still can't connect to my pc.
I tried on 3 diff PCs with diff version of windows...
I've tried everythin, debug mode on/off, reinstalled Kies, drivers, did factory reset, but nothing.. when i try to connect my SGSII to Kies, it writes "Current connection mode not supported by Kies".. I'm on Lite'ning rom v2.2..
If you're running a custom rom, why would you want to use Kies ? It's awful. There are so many other apps that have the same functionality as Kies (tho granted not one app that does everything Kies does) that work perfectly with custom roms.
Only reason to use Kies would be if you went back to stock because you wanted official ICS OTA or similar IMHO.
I did a backup with Kies, now my all contacts, sms, videos, music, calendar are in this f***in' backup file.. :| I have an awfull headache Or i can do a restore with another app, will it be compatible with Kies's backup file?
same problem. USB connection to PC will only charge. Recently updated to 2.3.6.
Tricky one.
----------EDIT---------
it worked ok after rebooting my PC. Must just be general crapiness.

Won't work on my samsung galaxy s2 (ICS 4.0.3) - windows Xp (sweet)
HI all members and fellow S2 experts.
I am quite new to android flashing and rooting.. and i have run into a problem and i really really need your help.Here is the story ....
I have stock rom 2.3.5 and cynagonmod7 in my phone.One day i made back up of my stock rom and went to recovery mode and changed to cynagon mod... I used cynagon for few days than made back up of it so that i can go back to stock rom.So i did back up it went fine.than i went to restore my stock rom and thats where the problem started.It didnt let me go back.
My phone does not turn on now.
When i try it just stays on the main screen where it says samsung galaxy s2 bla bla and that yellow triangle (indicating its rooted).
It does not go to recovery mode.
Once on charge it shows me the cell which appears when you charge your phone whilst it being off,it just shows me a empty cell and within that cell that rounded circle shaped icon not moving just as an icon.
And it lets me go to download mode but odin3-v1.85 does not recognise any device being connected or anything....
So basically i am doomed
I have tried taking battery out all sort of different combinations to reboot go to recovery mode all that but its just not happening and in download mode Odin does not detect my phone.
So i really dont know what to do.So can you please please please help and guide me how to get my phone back to life i really need to
Detailed answers would really help.Thanks for reading and please help me out.If any queries you can ask me.
Did you install the sg2 drivers in your computer? (you do this by installing the kies soft)
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
Yes i did installed all the driver.But at the moment i am on another laptop which does not have kies or any other driver for s2 but it still is not recognised..Laptop recognises something being connected to usb but it actually does not recognise any device or shows anything.
try to install kies it might be a driver issue

I HAVE DONE IT YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
Thanks alot guys it is exactly as you said.Installed kies in friends laptop went in download mode it installed the driver and than odin recognised the phone and put 2.3.5 again and done its working yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhh
You guys are star.THanks alot to all......
1- Try charging your phone for an hour or so (Just in case).
2- On that second laptop that recognizes something been connected to it, go to device manager and if you see any unknown usb device, delete it. Unplug your phone and plug it again (in download mode).
Good luck I hope this works

Glad to see you're up and running

If the problem still persists, then explain in depth as to what you did . Hope This Helped
I've followed the guide several times, but i can't get my device connected to odin. here is what i do: delete samsung kies, install odin, install the samsung drivers, put my phone in download mode connect it. (i have also tried to connect it and then download mode etc.).
Two things come to mind. One, the phone is borked & is a service centre job. Two, you're doing something wrong, but as we're not there with you looking over your shoulder, it's going to be nigh on impossible for anyone here to say exactly what that is.
Given you say you've tried 'everything' (and you have listed everything I normally tell people to do when they can't get their PC/Odin to recognise the phone), I don't know of any other options that anyone here can give you.
If it were me, I'd persevere & keep trying to get Odin to recognise the phone for a bit. I know you've tried different PC's, try some more. Again, I understand you've tried different USB cables, try others. There is no magic fix here.
Then I'd bite the bullet & send it into Samsung. If they end up wanting to charge you for the repair, consider having it JTAG'd. Will probably end up cheaper.

Why did you delete kies? :O . Just close the processes of kies at the time of starting odin.

Your post gave me a thought Krishnadusad. OP, I realise you manually installed drivers after you removed Kies from your PC which would normally work just fine 999 times out of 1000. However...Given nothing else is working, download a fresh copy of Kies from Samsung's website, reboot, install it, reboot again.
Then try Odin again, and check Windoze task manager & make sure you end task on Kies or any related processes.
Worth a shot I figure.
Install kies again and charge your mobile. Then download the stack rom from sam firmware. Beware. I suggest you flash the 4.0.3 as the 4.0.4 has brick bug. Then boot into download mode and flash the stck rom. You may want to check out the how to threads.

hello guys,
thanks for your help. But i wasn't able to flash so i brought it to the store, samsung is fixing it. I hope it isn't to expensive!
When you are in download mode - you are not bricked and it's 100% chance to restore your phone to full funcionality. Just read some FAQs next time

Hello guys,
I have a samsung galaxy tab 10.1 P 5200 and I tried to root it for the first time because i wanted to install a stock android rom. So I installed a root by following the info on some site (I know it is not XDA Developers but I didnt know at the time)
Anyways everthing went on well and i got a pass in odin but tablet restarted it was stuck at the startup Samsung Logo..... I tired to restart it but I still got the same problem... it just wont go further... i went to download mode again and tried reinstalling it but still got the same problem... I saw on the net that installing firmware from kies might solve the problem but it is not connecting to kies even though the PC detects it....
I dont know what to do... PLEASE HELP!!!!
Sir,
Please wait until mods will move this thread to the device specific forum.
Stand by
Good luck
Install usb drivers by samsung. Did you enable usb debugging in the developer options?
Samsung Galaxy sg2 GT-I9100 download mode
Hi and please help fellow Samsung users
I have a Samsung Galaxy sg2 GT-I9100
One morning I woke up and my sg2 wouldn’t boot past the Samsung screen.
It won’t go to the recovery mode only download mode
I can only get to download mode
When I connect the phone by usb I get a blue sign in Odin It does show up in Odin in the coms
I have tried to flash it with Odin with 5 stock roms and Odin shows cache and fails every time.
I have removed all traces of kies and rebooted and the usb cable is also fine, I have also tried different versions of Odin to no avail
My question is what can or should I try next?
Please advise
I had this problem once. Couldn't success flashing via Odin even if the Odin was detecting my phone....was giving fail message........then as a last resort, more of frusrtatedly I pushed/shook the USB pin a little bit....voila! I got success.......flashed!!!!!!
Don't take it as final advise. Try , if all fails and you are sure what you are doing. Good luck.....

That didn't work the USB cable is is working fine and when i try in on anther USB port it installs the Samsung drivers so it does recognize in Odin.
There must be something else i can do i know there is 4.5 to 5 GB of space in the phone memory
I have heard of using pit files as a last resort
I will give a reward to anyone by PayPal for a fix
