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.

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..

Maybe solved it
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...

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

Driver issue. Find the correct drivers.
Beamed in by telepathy.
Hi there,
I tried to flash CM 10.1 on my friend's Samsung Galaxy SII I9100G. I followed the Tutorial from the CM's wiki, but it didn't worked because I got errors from Heimdall. After a few minutes with google I tried Odin and it worked without any Problems. After flashing cm-10.1-20130304-EXPERIMENTAL-i9100g-M2.zip and related gapps the phone was stuck in a bootloop. After 10 minutes I pulled out the battery and plugged it back in. Since then, the phone always booted into recovery automatically. And I'm able to boot into download mode aswell.
But the phone isn't recognized by Odin or any other tool. I've reinstalled the samsung phone drivers serveral times. I tried it with Kies, without Kies, with driver packages from XDA.. Nothing worked. If I remove the battery and hold Vol Down+Home+Power while plugging in the USB cable my PC recognizes some devices but cannot install the driver because after 2 seconds the devices is unplugged again.
I think the battery is too low to establish a USB connection. I will charge the battery tomorrow at work and give it another try.
Any advice for the whole problem? Is it all related to the low battery?
Kind regards

Clean uninstall Kies (your uninstaller pro or similar), then reinstall.
Got a laptop laying around? Try that instead.

A clean reinstall of Kies didn't helped.. Even it isn't recognized on another PC. Because I can access recovery mode (CWM) and download mode I guess it's no brick.. just an driver issue?! I tried several USB Ports and USB cables.. nothing helped..
Can it be caused by a wrong kernel? Is it possible to flash a kernel with CWM?
Of course, flash the zip version of the kernel.
Make sure it's neant for I9100G

Even after flashing another kernel the phone boots directly into recovery..
After trying several ROMs and Kernels I guess it's a bootloader failure.. Because there is no possibillity to flash a new bootloader via CWM and I get no USB connection, I am screwed... =/
No you are not, keep trying.
Other(s) PC might do the trick.
Also get a couple of Odin versions.
Get new cables, genuine s2s that is.
And keep reinstalling kies.
I tried it with another USB cable and connected the phone without the battery. Now I get a "OMAP4430" Device in the device manager which disappears after 2 seconds and reappers 5 seconds later and after 2 seconds it's gone again.. Why the processor is recognized by my PC and not the smartphone itself?!
I will try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1701471&page=3

Try it on someone else's computer, I kept running in to issues, and changed the USB port I was using, removed SD card, unplugged USB cable after I got the "PASS!" message in Odin.

Make sure you are in odin mode on the device. I came from HTC One and didn't put my device in Odin mode. Duh.. right? lol.
You can get into Odin mode by doing "adb reboot-bootlaoder"
for the best results:
1.use an official Samsung cable
2. unplug all unneeded usb devices
3.reboot into download mode again
4.connect to a usb 2.0 port on the back of the pc
5.run odin as an admin
if that dose not work, make sure kies is removed, and re-install the Samsung drivers,
reboot pc, and try again.
solved similar problem...
reboot your phone into download mode, but yet not proceed, plug into pc, open odin (as administrator), put the firmware files in their respective places, and finally press vol up to proceed in download mode and press start, it must solve, if all else does not help .. hugs
Hope this helps, if so please press "thanks" ..

Do one thing when you are trying to connect in downloading , just make sure kies is not running at background.
Thing is kies blocks that connection which you are trying to make. It worked for me as well. All the best.

This worked for me after having so many problems. Nobody was clear on how to fix it. I had soft bricked my phone. It wouldn't connect to Kies or allow any pit or rom being flashed to it. Everything would fail. I tried doing what you said and it worked. I always got the errors 'No pit partition' etc.
I plugged in the USB without the battery in.
Phone wouldn't switch on into recovery without battery in so I put it back in.
I then took it out and Odin wouldn't connect to it and start the process without the battery in so I put it back in.
I loaded up the pit file and started it! You should have seen my face! haha! It worked!
It booted up! Hooray!
I switched it off and booted it in recovery mode.
Installed new rom (hopefully this won't break)
Thank goodness for that. I feel your pain guys. If you need any help just message me.

Switch off the device.. Boot in download mode and then click on start at odin
immediately start downloading !!
worked for me! !
The problem begins when I flashed custom recovery using Flashify app on my rooted stock device. It makes device soft bricked.
and it not allowing me to go into recovery mode! But I could go through download mode easily so I tried to flash new recovery using odin. :fingers-crossed:
But when i plug phone into the usb port( tried all of them ) I realized that my pc not detecting my phone neither any sound of connecting nor any notification. I've checked many times i installed proper driver as well. I tried to check any hardware change on driver manager but nothing comes up. I tried couple of pc, windows 7 and 10, and bunch of usb cables but still no success. Please help me!
Sounds like the USB port may be damaged. Does it charge?

I had a J6, just rooted months ago. Everything was fine, I got it rooted successfully, and today I just updated Magisk this afternoon and restart it. And it got bootloop.
I don't know what to do so I wipe data and cache partition. It didn't help
My phone can't connect to my laptop, Odin didn't detect my phone, Installing Samsung USB Drivers didn't help
My phone could only go to recovery mode and go to Downloading mode
Can anyone help me plz?

Hello,
is your phone a SM-J600FN/DS? And how do you root?
Thanks

To reflash the stock ROM we need Odin to detect my phone to flash. It didn't detect anything (despite already have Samsung USB Driver). I was stupid not installing TWRP before rooting my phone. What should I do now?
[SOLVED]: IT WAS THE CABLE PROBLEM​
It turns out that the problem all along was the cable. I had 2 Micro USB cables and none of them connect the phone to computer, only in charge mode
So I borrowed my mom's Xiaomi cable and it worked perfectly. Just connect to computer, open Odin and flash the stock ROM back.
After this incident I don't feel like I want to root phone. It was good but it seems to me that Magisk has a lot of problems right now... Or probably just me
