Hi to everyone. I can't root my sgsII because odin won't recognize it in download mode. I have kies, drivers, debugging on and all what is needed. When phone is turned on odin recognizes it. Can anybody help?
Did you shutdown kies while trying to flash?
Turn debugging off turn phone off open Odin with Kies closed .select file
turn phone on in download mode read screen connect usb cable flash .

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...
Hi,
First of all, I've been searching for this problem. And up to now, I haven't found a solution yet.
Odin won't recognize my phone in download mode. I am on Hydrog3nics ROM right now, but I want to go back to stock (I need to send my phone for repair, because of dust under my camera lens).
Things I've tried:
- Reinstalled my drivers with KIES
- Tried all the USB ports I got on my PC
- Opened ODIN with Administrator rights
- Restarted my PC, my phone, cleared all cache and **** on my phone.
- USB debugging off (and on)
- used different versions of ODIN
It doesn't recognize the phone when it's booted too, but it does recharge my phone .
It only recognizes my phone when it's turned off and I plug in the cable (the usb sound on my PC).
Kinda desperate of this problem right now, lol.
thanks
Do you have access to CWM to try to flash a different Kernel i.e. Siyah?
Go to boot loader in sg2 then go to odin in pc & connect the usb to phone

Another option is a different cable. I have one cable that does recognize and one that doesn't.

Have you tried clearing "Dalvik Chache" ? for me it worked. To clear Dalvik cache , Reboot into recovery mode Go to Adavanced -> from there select "Clear Dalvik Cache".
I am on CyanogenMod 10 by the way.
All the best
Did you try Mobile Odin? You just put the rom/kernel on the SD card. Select and flash away!! I use it all the time.
Help mee.
I have bought a s3 that is locked to Orange, need to unlock, but odin does not see the phone in recovery/dl mode.

Install Samsung Kies to be able your PC to detect your phone via Odin
also check the debugging mode in the developer options

I have uninstalled the older Kies, re installed the latest.
I have installed the lastest odin.
Have tried to link up with and without debugging, odin still does not see phone when in recovery mode.
Only time odin see the phone when phone is in normal mode.
Starting to get annoyed now lol, i cant cut my sim to fit phone, untill this is done
I cant see my s2 on odin either, what am i doing wrong ????
1. Reboot PC
2. Ensure KIES is not running and kill any KIES processes in PC task manager.
3. Download mode
4. Connect USB directly to PC port (no hub)
5. Wait for any drivers to instal or load on PC
6. Start Odin in administrator mode
If still no good;
a) Different USB cable
b) Different PC USB port and wait for drivers

Thanks . Seems that I had been pressing volume up not down.
I have another question . I used chainfire Rom to debrand the phone but keis does not recognize . How can I solve this . Could it be because the phone is rooted ?
i am having this problem at the mo, I have tried all of the above, apart from a different pc.
oden worked fine with my galaxy s2
is there any more updates on how to sort this out please?
thanks

I know this is a 7 day old thread, but I feel for you having been in the same situation. Firstly, have you installed the Android SDK? If not then I advise you to do so. Do a search on how to install the SDK. There maybe smaller downloads available with a package of the binaries you need to do some testing i.e. adb. The instructions will elaborate about how to set up your Environment settings in Windows. Essentially ADB needs to be called from within any part of your Windows system....or else you will have to cd to its location each and every time you want to do something like this. So once you have done that, open command prompt and type adb and see what comes up? If it says bad command or file name it means your environment settings for the ASK are incorrect, if it displays the adb help text in command prompt you are ready to proceed.
When you plug your device in (not in DL or recovery modes) is it detected by the PC? If so then your drivers are probably fine. If not then it maybe 1 of 2 things? 1 the device is detected but the MTP drivers have not been loaded or 2. No detection what so ever and all drivers need to be installed.
To determine how to proceed you will need to do a bit of investigating.
Note the USB drivers are included as part of the Android SDK.
Check in Device manager inside of Windows to see if anything is detected when you plug it in. If so but it has a yellow exclamation ! then it would indicate you need to update your drivers (but not always?). From here you can test to see if the phone is detected and you only need MTP drivers.
If not then I would suggest uninstalling Keis all together and downloading and installing the Samsung USB drivers separately. Install the drivers. Plug in the phone. If it is not detected straight away, then reboot the PC then plug the phone into a different USB port. From here you can determine how to proceed by using adb.
plug your phone in via USB and open command prompt and type this: adb devices
You should see 1 of 2 things.
1) The words "list of devices attached" followed by a 16 digit long ID number a gap and the word "device"
2) just the words "list of devices attached" and then blank and nothing else?
If a device ID is returned then you can proceed with the following. Otherwise you need to do some additional trouble shooting
Proceed here:
Once it is detected by Windows and shows up in Explorer then unplug the phone and go into settings and developer options and check enable USB debugging. Once you have done this it should allow your device to be seen in DL and recovery modes.
Troubleshoot: If not detected try the following:
1) Reboot the PC and plug into a new USB port that you have not previously plugged into.
2) Try disabling USB debugging plugging the device in and then unplugging it and reenabling USB debugging
3) From the status bar try switching modes between MTP and PTP modes. Wait a good minute or so between to allow Windows to detect the driver change. Tip a good indication is your notification tray Icon with green USB disk with a magnifying glass swirling around....Note if you cannot see this at all you probably should drag it into the notification panel so that you CAN!
4) Open up device manager again and ensure no yellow exclamation marks !
Once all this is right and you can get List of devices attached followed by an ID number then you can for sure be able to detect your device from Odin. Make sure you are running Odin 3.04, run it as admin (not necessary but have heard that it helps?)
Good luck

I have an S4 Active that NO MATTER WHAT I DO, Odin will NOT see phone in Download mode, it will with the phone on, and my PC will see the phone, but not Odin. I am stumped. I have tried 3 PC's, I have ALL the drivers and then some. I am Stumped.

You can try with minimal/no drivers i.e. uninstall kies if you have it and delete the drivers you might have installed on your own-it sounds counter productive but it has worked for me a few times.
You can also try to either install kies or the drivers separately.
Try the forum for your own phone, the people there might know better about this problem.
Also what OS are you on?

I have tried several computers using Windows 7 and Windows XP both 32 and 64
I don't have any USB device connected other than the mouse on PC. i have even tried on my laptop with no mouse.
I have downloaded pit file and uvjfd.tar two times from the forums.
I have tried flashing multiple times from both my PC & laptop using Odin 3.0 v1.0, v1.85, v3.07(latest), EZOdin v1.70 and installed Samsung USB drivers multiple times, even downloaded latest driver version from official Samsung Vibrant page.
I have tried flashing from all possible USB ports on my PC & laptop wherever the phone was being recognized. But now with the latest official Samsung Vibrant drivers, my phone is not being detected by any USB port on my PC.
But whenever I have flashed, Odin is stuck at Cache or Modem or recently(with latest samsung drivers), DO NOT TURN OFF TARGET !!
I have even tried flashing through Heimdall 1.3.1 but the zadig.exe shows the device only as 'Gadget Serial' no matter how many times I try, and installs the driver with device as Gadget Serial under libusb in Device Manager and I also tried by updating driver as Samsung Composite USB as mentioned in readme. Either Way Heimdall frontend will not flash and says "Failed to detect compatible download-mode device".
Edit: I tried with another USB cable, of LG GS500v, and Oh Lord Jesus, Odin flashed past it. Great, time to buy a new Samsung USB cable, now!

Dont worry....this time go to download mode and flash eugenes that does not brick aka Eugene_2E_JK2_Froyo with the same pit file and ur good to go brother
Similar Problem but different results.
Hi!
Whomever can help me, please help me. Right now, I am on stock Froyo 2.2 after the factory reset so this is how I got it but it is rooted only. I am trying to overwrite CWM because I cannot get into its recovery no matter how many times I flash it. Odin just will not recognize my phone when I am in download mode. When my phone is on, it will allow the mass storage and that works but when in download mode, my PC says unrecognized devide. I have a feeling that is the problem and I have updated the drivers several times, especially from Samsung but to no avail. Does someone have a solution to this problem? I want to go to Avatar ROM with my phone which is Jelly Bean and have seen its possible but I feel CWM is holding me back.
Thank you in advance!

Can you explain the steps your taking when you try to get into odin
Sent from my SGH-T959 using xda app-developers app
The steps I take is put the phone into download mode by pulling the battery and then holding both the volume up and down then reinsert the battery. It shows the download screen. I then start odin and I have tried version 1.7 and the latest version of 3.0.7. Then I plug my phone into the USB port and windows pops up saying unrecognized device. I have reinstalled drivers several times. Now to describe my desktop is that it is a pentium III 550 Mhz...and old computer and running Windows XP Professional. I am able to do the mass storage when the phone is on normally so it recognizes it that way though. I have tried different USB ports on it as well so just unsure. I have rooted the phone and have superuser app access. ROM manager was supposed to have flashed the recovery mode but it never goes into the CWR mode either and its version is 2.5.1.2 which I have seen work on these phones in videos on YouTube so guess I am trying a different route so I can play with the mods to find a ROM I like. I was going to try the Avatar ROM for the vibrant but just cannot seem to get to the point where I can get the ROM flashed. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Keep the battery in and lull up Odin. Cut off the phone and hold both volumes while inserting USB hopefully the computer will then recognize it

Its still not recognizing it. I am almost consigned to wait until either my laptop is fixed or get a new laptop to replace it because this desktop is 13 years old and has the old USB 1.1 but wouldn't think that makes a difference. Any other ideas? I have uninstalled and reinstalled the USB drivers but I have not installed Kies yet but heard some bad things about that.

USB cable does make difference. And USB ports even on the same computer. Check also your phone's drivers. Finally, try out Heimdall one-click package for t959, it is more powerful and sensitive than Odin.
Good luck

And since only thing remaining in your case is USB cable, I would say try with a different micro USB cable, even a different vendor's will do, as it did the trick for me( see the edit in OP)
I will try that. Thank you! I need to get a car charger anyway so I can get a usb adapter for the car and a usb cable and try it that way.

I'm also stuck on cache & I have tried more than one USB cable. Is there something else that I might be doing wrong? I'm completely uninclined technologically. The fact that I got my phone into download mode after 'bricking' is a feat in itself. Now what do I do when I'm stuck??

Great that you could get it to the download mode.
Follow these steps:
1. Make sure that you have the correct drivers installed for your Operating System. Preferably, download the latest drivers. You can verify when your device is recognized when connected in download mode.
2. Make sure you follow this thread for Odin flashing http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=849028
3. If unable to flash using ODIN successfully, try with different USB ports, on same computer or a different one, say, a laptop.
4. If still unable to do so, try with different USB cables (any micro-usb should do).
In this way, you should by trying multiple alternatives at each step you should be able to eliminate the options and figure out what is really creating the problem in your flashing. Trust me my friend, this has not go anything to do with technology. just follow the steps, try alternatives and you would resolve this. Do post back on thread, if you have any queries.
hi,
i cannot connect to odin when in download mode... i tried different cable and usb port but nothing, i opened the usb debugging mode .
but still nothing . all drivers are installed, i hear the ding while connecting the usb cable but odin shows nothing
help please
Make sure kies isn't installed on the same machine, try another pc. Lots of similar threads, search for other solutions.
