Hello!
I am new here. but I have been a follower for a while. So I am in need of some advice. I am trying to help a teacher out with her tablet. It seems to be stuck in a boot loop. Completely stock(Never Rooted) by what I was told. I am not even certain debugging was turned on. So here it is:
1. It boots up to the Logo Screen and stops.
a. Windows sounds when plugged in Via Usb Port. I tried all different ports and cords.
b. When it is in this mode it shows up as an unspecified device for windows.
c. Odin shows up as blue when on logo screen.
2. I can get to the download mode, but it doesn't turn yellow in Odin and I can't get any more dialogue past the initial download screen.
a. Windows sounds when plugged in Via Usb Port. I tried all different ports and cords.
b. The device does not show up as connected to windows when in download mode.
c. Device shows up as blue in Odin on download mode.
3. Samsung USB drivers up-to-date
4. ABD up-to-date
5. Android Studio & JDK up-to-date
Does anyone have any suggestions on where to go from here? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

No. I am unable to get into recovery mode. No dialogue will pop up past the download screen. I was reading some other posts and some people suggested unplugging the internal connections from the battery and internal storage and so on and then plugging it back in.

When simply powered on, Odin will recognize my tab (10.1 WiFi Only 7510). But will not recognize in DL mode... grrrrr. Any suggestions?
Have you tried to uninstall and reinstall the drivers on the PC?
Yes, I did. Reinstalling the drivers did not work. I tested with USB debug off, this did nothing in Odin either.

Of course it wouldn't; toggling a USB debug setting on the device while booted into it's operating system will have no affect on how the device is going to work in download mode as download mode is completely independent from the operating system itself. It's like comparing a PC's BIOS to an installation of Windows or Linux on the PC.
Your issues with Odin and download mode are most likely on the PC side and NOT on the tablet side. The Samsung drivers are very temperamental. Sometimes they don't play well with other devices and sometimes they don't work well with certain chipsets or USB controllers. My suggestion is try different USB ports, avoid using USB HUBs and try reinstalling drivers as well as disabling antivirus on the PC temporarily.
It may even be advantageous to have device manager open while you connect the tab in download mode to see how the PC is recognizing it. The tab should never be connected while you're attempting to get into download mode, leave it disconnected and have Odin fired up and prepped until you get the tab in download mode. Seeing how device manager picks it up might help diagnose driver issues.
same problem, varios computers
Hello everyone! I also have this issue whereas my gt-p7500 dont even exists to the system in download mode. I tryed 3 computers so far, even on linux in download mode heimdall wont recognize the tablet. what I have done so far:
(on 1st pc win7)
- installed kies, and updated to latest version. On normal mode the tablet gets recognized, all drivers install throught the end, kies works fine, managing folders and files as storage device also works fine.
- turned on usb debugging, and connected to pc again. A new driver MPC is installed, kies still works, pc communication also.
- rebooted the device in download mode, and after this conected again to the pc. Nothing new is detected.
-- Odin can see the device on normal mode, and if its turned off (charge mode) but on download mode nothing happens.
(on 2nd pc, win 7)
- didnt install kies, only samsung drivers
- inserted the tablet in 3 ways on the cpter, normal node, normal mode with debugging on, and download mode to all new devices and drivers to be detected.
- odin dont work on download mode, but can see the tablet as the example above, normal mode, normal mode with debug on and turned off (charge mode)
(3rd pc, debian 64)
- installed heimdall via git, latest package. Also wont detect the device on download mode, whereas it can see the tablet on normal mode.
on 3 pcs, tryed ALL usb ports, tryied openning odin first, and then connecting the device, tryed conecting the device first and then openning odin... nothing works while in download mode.
also Iv reseted the device to factory defaults to test, nothing changed.
On the first pc iv also tryed downloading older drivers versions from samsung, spreaded all over xda foruns on other threads. the oldest version Iv tryed was 1.4.x,
Please helpe me on this, cant figure out how to get the device detected in download mode on the pc... getting very annoyed on this already, and tryed all the possibilities I could imagine so far.
Are you using a laptop? Bcz pc can iddntify. I also had same problem with my laptop. It was recognizinging it as media device but not in download mode. So try to cknnect it to the CPU of the Pc
HIT THANKS WHENEVER POSSIBLE OR IF I HELPED YOU...
Not necessarily computer related, past experience for me has shown that not all versions of Odin work with this tab......the newer versions are NOT so good
Try this version uploaded and these drivers - try odin first if you are sure of your drivers, otherwise install the drivers first
Let us know how you go....

Hi
I had the same issue and those files solved it
Thank you
Samsung Galaxy TAB P1000(Ordin detection in DOWNLOAD MODE)
Initially google SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_x86 . Download the file in your pc or laptop and install it. Then switch-off the tab and Press power and Volume down button simultaneously to get into the download mode. This time Samsung tab would be detected in the Ordin.
Hi I have galaxy tab 10.1 GT P7510, Odin don't recognize
Uh hi.
I'm a herp.
So I may have accidently tried to root and flash my friend's Samsung Vibrant. It was going smoohtly but now, I'm all sorts of messed up.
The problem: I may have used the wrong kernel (zImage) when using heimdall-frontend (which I downloaded from xda). This is causing the phone to power on; it shows the Samsung Galaxy S 4g load screen, then Overstock, then the T-Mo logo sign (with the music), and then a longer Galaxy S load screen. After the load screen, the screen goes completely black, but all the touch buttons light up. Once like this, I can turn it off, and make it go back into recovery mode and also download mode.
Please help. I've been trying to solve this with my friend for about.. 4 hours.
P.S. I've looked up all the guides for using ODIN to get back to JFS, none works due to the reason that when I put it back into download mode, the computer does not recognize it. But it does at the same time. (it shows the "safetly remove hardware" and says that is an "USB mass storage device" ((but does not appear in "My Computer" when in the unresponsive screen-- but when in the download screen, it shows the same thing, only labeled "SAMSUNG USB Composite Device", which also cannot be accessed through "My Computer")
P.P.S. I'm sure it is a Samsung Galaxy S Vibrant, exclusive from T-Mobile. My computer is Windows Vista 32-bit, and I have as many Samsung drivers as humanly possible when it comes to the Vibrant.
Can anyone help a poor fool?
Try this, get in to download mode, open Odin, then disconnect the usb cable, then reconnect the usb cable and Odin should recognize it then. Good luck!
Using XDA premium, you should be too!

Sorry. That did not work. It just doesn't recognize it in ODIN when in download mode. My computer doesn't even see it. But it does say "Safely Remove Hardware" -- "SAMSUNG USB Composite Device"
Sounds really odd. Do you have any roms you can try reflashing from recovery?

Sounds like you used the wrong odin files. if your screen is showing a galaxy s 4g logo then you must have mistakenly flashed a galaxy s 4g odin/heimdall package. on the back of your phone what is the model number. What on earth is JFS? ive heard of JFD which is the stock firmware that the phone shipped with.
If you flashed the wrong bootloader you are more or less stuck between a rock and a hardplace and will require a jtag. now the fact that teh screen does turn on is a good thing.
You need to keep trying to get it into download mode maybe try using a jig. Once youve gotten it into download mode try every single usb port you can find on your pc. When i need to odin i need to use one of my usb ports on the rear io panel none of the others will work. Once you get odin running and recognizing your device use the files posted in my sig as the odin files. any others and i cant help you cuz i dont know what your source is. Odin should be able to recover your device if it is still booting to the splash screen.
If for whatever reason you cant boot into download mode but can get into recovery here is what you do: make sure you have the android SDK installed (dont know what that is go here: http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html and follow their directions) then open up command prompt while in recovery type the following command: adb reboot bootloader this should put you into download mode. If nothing ive mentioned works you may require a JTAG there is a company called MOBILETECHVIDEOS (http://mobiletechvideos.mybigcommerce.com/) that has a JTAG service.
Good luck
-Cheers
Hi All,
I am having an issue with my S4 that when I plug them into my computer I get USB device not recognized. I have searched the forum for the past 2 days trying all kinds of different solutions the major one was changing my USB/charging port board on my phone.
I need to ODIN my device to an MJ7 image. At first I got the error and did a factory reset through safestrap recover. Still got the error so I did an advance wipe of every option. (Looking back shouldnt have done that) That took away my recovery, but I can get to download mode, but its not detected by my computer to use ODIN with. So I am stuck without a custom recovery without the ability to boot into anything.
Here is what I have tried so far:
1. Reinstall/uninstall drivers, reinstall/uninstall kies.
2. Changed USB ports on computer.
3. Changed USB cables
4. Changed computers from Win 8 x64 to Win 7 x64.
5. Changed computer to my MACbook using Heimdall.
6. Changed USB charging port board on my phone.
7. Tried everything again. *Still doesnt detect it*
Any ideas that I havent done already, or how to fix? I do have nandroid backup of my ROM, but dont have a custom recovery to flash it.
Cant ODIN back cause its not detected by my computer. Thanks in advance for your help.
Is USB debugging still checked on phone? You must use the USB cable provided with phone...

Thanks for the reply. I cant select USB debug on my phone because my phone does not boot into the main OS, it is stuck at the samsung custom padlock screen. The USB debug option was on when the OS was installed though. My phone will only boot into stock recovery and into download mode. I tried to use the original USB cable provided with the phone as I read this could be the problem, but I tried 4 other ones too and phone still gets detected as "Unknown Device" in device manager, so ODIN cant even see phone in download mode to restore. I have tried to install KIES and the Samsung Mobile phone drivers 1.5.x.x drivers. Just read somewhere where someone had this issue and installed Samsung mobile phone driver v1-4-6-0 so I am trying that now.

Tried Samsung Mobile phone drivers version 1.4.6.0 and still the same outcome "USB device not recognized". I went down to a local electronics store and bought two different brand microUSB data cables. Tried them both along with my original one from samsung, and still the same result. Any other ideas??
Anyone else have any ideas? Thinking of sending it in and having it JTAG'ed back to stock. Can anyone recommend any services? Heard mobiletechvideos is good.

I've been flashing custom roms on android devices for several years, but the Gtab S3 is the first Samsung device I've ever dealt with. On top of that I normally use ubuntu and I'm not familiar with window. I'd be most appreciative for your help with odin:
1) When I first plugged the S3 into a window machine I thought it would complain about lack of usb driver. It does not, to my surprise (it seems unlikely that that laptop would have the drivers already installed but maybe I was wrong); nothing happens on the Window side, and S3 says that it's getting slow charging.
In any case I installed the OEM usb driver in https://www.xda-developers.com/where-to-download-android-usb-drivers/ and then plug in the S3, but again nothing happens.
2) I installed odin 3.12.7 but it does not seem to see my S3 (see the attached screenshot).
3) The OP of this thread says
"put your device in download mode"
How?
I did try to google around but I have not been able to find useful help (e.g. as the screenshot shows my odin does not look like the one in step 6 of www.techbeasts.com/how-to-install-twrp-recovery-using-odin/). I enable USB debuggin mode & OEM unlock.
Many thanks for your generous help.
Maybe I cam help.
First have odin up on your pc with the usb cable plugged into the pc but not the tab.
Then with the tab turned off simultaneously hold the power, vol down, and home buttons. The tab should boot into download mode. Hit vol up to get into download.
Now plug the usb cable into the tab.
You should see odin recognize your device and then be able to flash.
You need the Samsung USB drivers and DOWNLOAD mode.

Hello,
I have a problem that the phone is not detected by windows, the drivers on the computer are installed and have been reinstalled several times. The only exception when the phone is detected is in download mode. In addition, I can add that once in several dozen connections, the computer finally detects it.
I have tried various original samsung cables and it does not change anything. I have android 11, and as you know, samsung has changed the way to enter recovery, requiring a cable to be connected to the computer. I have tried all the combinations to enter recovery mode and download mode.
When I was able to install TWRP, booting in recovery mode was normally detected by the computer. I have debugging options enabled. Anyone be able to help?

Yeah, that's strange.
Does adb recognize your device?
If yes, you can boot into download and/or recovery mode by using adb.
If not, try to connect your phone to another computer. Just to check, if it's an issue on the phone or the PC.
