I am not able to get ODIN or Kies to recognize the device. I am able to use adb to reboot into recovery or clockwork. I have tried going into Download Mode while ODIN was started and also I have tried before I started ODIN .... same result. Please Help ... I thank you in advance
Have you installed the drivers on your computer?
the drivers have been installed.
although it doesn't install the driver for the Samsung Android USB Modem
but they must work because i am able to use adb
anybody got any advice for me?
I've searched the forums and tried everything they say to try to no avail.
Any sense of direction would be appreciated
Hei, Im new to the Samsung Android Phones but I have had HTC Android Phones since the G1 and until the HTC Desire HD and Xperia Arc.
But now Im stuck, I cant get niether Kies nor Odin to recognize my device, let me tell you how.
1. When I try to connect to Kies the *Android MTP driver* fail to install.
2. So Kies will go on an endless Connection journy and my devices tells me its connected.
I have reinstalled the drivers many time. tried with both USB-Debugging mode on and off and still no result.
Ok, but thats not the worst part because i could careless about Kies since my interrest is in rooting the device.
Now if my device is powered on and the USB-debugging mode is on Odin finds it (mark it as yellow)
but when I put the device is in Download mode Odin doesnt find it and I cant flash :'(
Im confussed, i've been going at it for days now with no results. help me please...
When you're in Odin, have you disabled Kies? Both the .exe and the system tray?
What's your current firmware?

I mean I close Kies when using Odin and vice versa. you think Kies is the reason for Odin not finding the device in download mode?

Turn Kies off = not running in taskbar .
USB debugging off reboot phone .
Open Odin select firmware connect phone via Samsung cable to a mainboard USB port .

Well frankly that MTP device error is a PITA, it happened for me with my S8500, did everything possible, couldn't solve it until I installed Win 7 x64. So may be a fresh OS installation could/should solve the problem.
If you can't do that Odin is the only option as you already know.
And make sure that you are pressing Vol Up+Home+Power button to enter Download mode and press the Vol Up key to continue.
Regards.
It seems that Im ably to enter Android System Recovery by pressing VolUp+Home+Power and Odin seems to find the devices find, but thats not Download Mode I guese, do I brick the phone if I flash from here via Odin?

You can't flash from Odin in recovery, and I'm not sure I've heard of anyone who can get recovery but not download. Something is FUBAR'd...
I'll let ithehappy and jj take over, they've more experience than me. But since you're in recovery, a factory reset seems logical.
Anybody have any idea? please help..
Did you try factory reset? And have installed the newest version of Kies, as opposed to re-installing old drivers?
Uninstall kies and the drivers
Download these driver
Install them
Put phone into download mode
Flash a rom or kernel using Odin
If this doesnt work
1) change USB ports
2) reboot computer
3) try another computer if you have one close by
Or if you have Clockworkmod recovery installed
4) boot into CWM recovery
5) connect phone to computer via USB
6) select mounts and storage
7) select mount USB storage
8) your phones internal SD card will now mount with the computer, copy a CWM flashable zip of what you want to flash to the phones sd card
9) go back to main menu
10) select install zip from sd card
11) select chose zip from sd card
12) flash!
Hi guys
I have a factory gs2, I was updating the kernel using kies and the phone decided to give off an error.
The phone and kies ask me to restart the phone and retry the installation but the phone is no longer detected by kies. The computer recognises the usb device and loads Samsung drivers but nothing else
Currently the phone shows a black screen with a phone exclamation mark and a computer. I am able to put the phone in odin mode.
I cannot access the phone using adb on my pc.
Anyone got any ideas on how to fix this, as I ideally need to retrieve some files on the phone (but not a big deal) I really just need my phone working.
Thanks
Go into download mode and root you're phone.

Didn't know you could update just the kernel with kies, anyhoo if that's all you were doing try to reflash a stock'ish kernel through odin. If that doesn't work you'll need to flash the stock firmware through odin, then you'll have access to your files on the sdcard.
The above comment should suffice
This thread has original firmwares and Kernels and this thread has rooted kernels
And use Odin to flash kernels unless they are CWM flashable
And backup your EFS Floder
Thanks everyone. I followed the instruction for how to root a g2 and it worked!
hi everybody!
this is my first post.. hope someone can help me.
i just rooted the galaxy s2 and wanted to install cwm by factory recovery. That went wrong, i guess a wrong file. Now im stuck in a boot loop. I cant enter recovery mode, only the download mode. So tried to connect my phone with the pc to use Odin, but it doesnt recognize the device (never did not even before this brick). Installed kies and tried every driverinstall but no succes, it gave me code 43. i have windows 7..
so.. no recovery, no usb.. what can i do? im almost desperate.

Try another computer then. Your phone gets detected even if no driver is installed. As long as the computer does not detect at least an unkown USB device no driver will bring you any further.
Check out @Hopper8's Odin troubleshooting guide here on XDA.

Are you sure you have the Samsung drivers installed?
Else ODIN won't detect your phone.
Try to install drivers or try another USB cable, another port, another Odin version
