hello again. title is simple. ive tried a few different drivers and 2 different cables both came with sgs4g, mine and my moms. i have vista and when i try to get into recovery to return it to stock it won't recognize it from the pc. any help would be appreciated.

Try download mode. Look at the guide in the second link of my signature for help.

Thats the guide i'm trying to follow. But when i put the phone into Download mode my computer doesn't recognize the phone.

If you're running an ICS rom, or CM7, then you need to install the Google adb drivers from the android SDK. If you are on a GB, except CM7, then you need the Samsung drivers. That's your issue

[Q] odin won't recognize my galaxy p5100

Hi guys. I have a problem since months and I couldn't find an answer. When my tablet is in download mode it 's not recognized by Odin (3.04 or 1.85). If I connect it in normal mode to my pc it works fine both with kies and pc. I tried to enable disable debug mode, enable disable mtp, I tried on several pc's with the same results. I am using the cable that came with the tablet. I have tried running odin without running kies. Please advise.

Try reinstalling the drivers if still nothing get mobile odin use that to root and flash roms

Make sure Kies isn't running at the same time as using odin too, there's a conflict between them. Which version of Odin are you using? Version 1.85 is what i use.

I have tried on several laptops (win 7 X86 and win 7 X64). On all of them I installed a fresh kies. The same problem. BTW i use the cable from the box that came with my tab.

Didn't help. I tried with and without kies. I am using odin 1.85. I begin to think there is something wrong with my android version. My tablet isn't rooted.

can't think of much more to help you, apart from delete everything off the pc. Everything!
then follow this guide without installing kies - just the smsung usb drivers. all else failing ??? that sucks!

[Q] Still stuck on stock Honeycomb..

Hi..
my dad bought galaxy tab p6200 a year ago and now he gave it to me and its still on stock honeycomb, but when I check for update through settings it states that there is no update available but when I connect my tab to pc via USB it does not recognize it. Even after installing samsung drivers and kies it still does not recognize my tab..
Is there any other way to update my tab???? any help would be really helpful..

You won't see the update available unless it has been released in your area or by your carrier. However you can flash 4.1.2 official from above link by using odin.

You might be able to use Mobile ODIN Pro, but I'm not sure it works with Honeycomb

I'll give that a try.. and thx
If it works can I directly flash JB over Honeycomb or I have to first flash ICS..

Yes you can flash direcetly to JB:good:

Mine also is finicky with being recognized. Make sure you're using official samsung cable, and plug into a rear usb port. Are you putting the tab into download mode?

Turning tab on with Pwr + vol down should put it into download mode then flash via Odin, if that doesn't work then I'm stumped.

If you want your PC to recognize the Sammy, First remove uninstall KIES and all old and other vendors Android drivers. HTC especially will interfere with the SAMSUNG. Make sure NOT to attach your tablet yet. Then install the latest KIES or Samsung USB drivers. After rebooting, then attach the Sammy Tablet and don;t touch anything until your PC is finished updating the drivers and your tab appears as a media device.

[Q] question about phone driver and Odin in windows

I'm working on un-bricking my SPH-l710 S3. I am trying to use Odin in the process. I am wondering if odin is recognizing my phone. I included an attachment showing Odin and my device mgr. If the zero is before the port # does that mean the computer isn't recognizing the phone? I downloaded and installed the newest samsung drivers. If anyone know how I can fix this I sure would appreciate it!

Make sure you have the newest drivers installed on your pc..
1st make your phone go to download mode/odin mode then only your pc will recognize it...
(Press vol button+power button+home key simultaneously for going into download/odin mode...

I can't get the bootlaoders to download to the phone It fails every time. I'm going to try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2369125&page=1 I guess and see if I can get my phone back working again.

I think you should try universal adb drivers for your pc or u can download kingoroot app for your device in pc because when you install kingoroot app to your pc during installation process it will automatically install your phone drivers to your pc
Or you have to update your odin to latest version

I got the drivers to work now in Odin but when I try to load the boot loader I keep getting a fail. I originally tried to fix my phone, not booting in to recovery, by using Kies. Kies tried to download something to the phone when it booted to download mode the phone boots directly to download mode and still won't boot to recovery. Now I'm going to try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2369125&page=1 to fix it. Unless someone can tell me a better solution.

[Completed] HELP me unbrick my GT-I9300

Hello xda members
I have an GT-I9300 device which stucks on TWRP Recovery (teamwin logo excatly) and flashes about after 4 or 5 seconds.
No twrp options , my pc doesnt react when i plug in my phone , only download mode available and an SD Card.
Can i unbrick my phone or not ?

Hello,
Yes, you can flash your stock firmware through Odin 3.10 and fix your device. Look in the thread linked below for instructions, if the download link for your stock firmware is dead then try going to Sammobile.com and search for your stock firmware using your model number GT-I9300, download it and then follow the instructions below.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/general/restore-to-stock-rom-galaxy-s3-i9300-t2187081
Good luck.

styno said:
Hi,
you can recover the GT-I9300 completely with Samsung's own Kies. It will ask for the serial number of the phone and will download all files needed and flash it for you.
You'll end up with a complete stock phone (but with latest modem )
Good luck!

Yes but kies and also kies3 doesnt start the process .

Power the device off (pull the battery, then put the battery back in), then hold VOL DOWN + HOME KEY + POWER KEY
Once in download mode plug into your PC. Also make sure that you have the Samsung drivers installed. Check your device manager on your PC to make sure Windows is seeing the device.

Try different USB ports, make sure you have the stock cable.
