Hi everyone,
I tried to root my Samsung Galaxy following the guide from xda developers (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1056334).
I forgot to enable the USB debugging mode on the device (Settings -> Applications -> Development -> USB debugging)
I started ODIN, then my device rebooted. I started SuperOneClick and I received a message saying "device not found".
Then I went to check the guide, and I saw that I forgot to enable the USB debugging mode on the device (Settings -> Applications -> Development -> USB debugging).
Can anyone help me to fix this?
I'm from Portugal. If I wrote anything wrong sorry for my mistake and for any inconvenience.
Thank you for any help.
Not sure if you're just having problems with Odin recognizing your phone or not but the basics are to ensure you have the phones drivers installed and enable usb debugging. Afterwards you make sure your phone gets recognized fully from your computer once plugging it in. If so you start Odin AND THEN plug in your phone with the directions for getting to download mode (removing battery and holding volume button etc) and in Odin it should show a connection on a com port tile. Then you load up your files and send them. If anything I am sure you just may have a problem by not being in download mode?

Do you have the latest drivers? Have you killed all KIES apps?

The only thing that my device do it's when I press power on it appears the image of samsung galaxy and the yellow triangle above. It doesn't do anything more. it is blocked on that image. I can ear in my computer the sound of some device plugged to the usb port, but don't detect any device. It only makes the sound of some device that was plugged to the usb port.
But I can put my device in download mode. What files I have to send? but I don't know what files I should send to the device. Can you please help me?
What I have to do in odin?

I have the latest drivers from my cell phone operator. I can only have access to Kies on my pc (but now, kies doesn't recognize any device plugged to the pc), my phone don't let me gain access to the menu and to any application.
Get into download mode and go into keis and start a firmware upgrade and initialization. (you will need model number and serial number behind the battery) and go through the process it tells u to. Then you will be back to stock, then try to root from there the proper way.

You could find a stock ROM first (depends on where you bought your phone / country, provider) and flash through Odin. Unplug your phone from your PC > task manager > kill all KIES apps > turn on your phone into download mode > open ODIN > connect phone to PC
Then ODIN should show your phone is connected with a yellow box, depending on what ROM you downloaded you put the needed file in the PDA box (file with the name such as I9100XWLP7_I9100XXLPS_I9100XENLP3_HOME.tar.md5), click START and wait until that box goes from yellow to green. Phone should reboot now. If it gets stuck, get into the recovery mode (Vol UP + home + power) and wipe everything.

I was doing an ota firmware update to my t mobile Samsung note 2 (SGH-T889) using kies 3.1. My phone was stuck on 41 percent for about an hour so i disconnected the phone thinking that it will reboot and ask me to reconnect. Well since it didnt, its been stuck on this firmware encounter an issue please selcet recovery mode in kies and try again.
I hooked it back up and now in kies it just says connecting but nothing happens.
i tried putting my phone in download mode to see if itll connect to kies and still nothing. The phone wont allow me to get into recovery mode due to this issue. Im a mac user so i even downloaded wine to use odin i downloaded all samsung drivers needed for a connection and odin cant even detect my phone. Im not sure if usb debugging is on in my phone . I cant access nothing on my phone i tried many tricks on youtube looked at xda forms i even went into tmobile and they didnt kno what to do. Im using the factory usb, i tried diff ports and just cant seem to get a good connectiong between either programs. Please helps its been 3 days without a phone..thank you

Hi
I discovered my Samsung S III stuck on the Samsung screen. I have done all that was suggested but still no luck. It was suggested for me to use Odin to flash it with the original Android system. I read the instructions. I am very new to this. I have Kies my computer. When I plug my wifes phone in it sees it when I plug mine in it says installing drivers then fails. Even if I use Odin will the computer recognize my phone or is it a lost cause?
TIA

look up how to put your S3 into download mode and try Odin it should work if you have the current Odin and firmware files ready and correct USB drivers installed. I have a newer Samsung so I only use Odin, but I make sure it's in download mode first...

You must place your phone in download mode, simultaneously press the keys, volume up, home, and on, a screen with the android logo will appear, press the volume key up and enter download mode, then with the odin already open and the File of the original rom loaded, connect the usb cable to your phone and start downloading the rom to the phone .. :good:
The following links is a little Helper with a video on how to enter Download Mode on a Galaxy S3.

It seems like you mean you are getting the screen that says "upgrade encountered an issue, connect to Kies" with an image showing a cellphone connected to a computer.
If that is what your device is displaying, you can still flash the device while it is in that state using Odin. Download the stock firmware for your specific model and flash it using Odin.

Hi,
I am on Linux. I have no access to a windows PC.
I never owned this kind of device. I only have one ASUS tablet, which I could root years before with the valuable help of this forum.
This Samsung Phablet (or tabone or whatever) in question was given to me for free because it can't longer be booted by the owner.
Symptoms:
Bootloop: It starts displaying "Galaxy Samsung..." but nothing more (no blue "whirl" as shown in some YouTube videos).
It stays there for ever and it can only be switched when it starts charging and while charging the USB plug is pulled.
By pressing the on/of switch and volume up the android robot is displayed with opened front and the rotating "nuclear something".
A progress bar steps up to to 25% then the robot is shown briefly on its back with a triangular red warning sign and a black exclamation mark on it.
By pressing the on/of switch and volume down I can enter ODIN mode and from there I can enter download mode.
Being the Tablet in Download mode I can "talk" to the phone with "Heimdall" which is the ODIN-Tool replacement for Linux.
I successfully downloaded t a "pit file" ... but I have no clue whether this is a success or for what this is good for...
As I try to repair/save things from being thrown into the dumpster I want to ask, what I can try to save this tablet. There are no
data on the tablet, which need to be saved.
What should I try next?
PS: The battery seems to ok as far as I can see...
Cheers!

What is the model name on the back of the case?
The writing on the back says:
Model GT-P3100 FCC ID:A3LGTP3100
IMEI:<numbers> S/N RF1C64KAT5D

Download the firmware for your country (I assume the tablet was not associated with a mobile operator) from the >site<
and flash through Odin. A short instruction is on the firmware page.
From where I can download the appropriate firmware - the tablet is about 9 years old... ?
PS: Sorry...I overlooked the link in your post - thanks a lot for your help.
Cheers!

...this hasn't worked for me:
I can "detect" the device with heimdall and I can download the pit-file.
But as soon I try to flash something, there is a "protol failure" and heimdall
stops working.
Any idea else?
Cheers!

Are you using a compatible version of zadig with heimdall?
I use the >heimdall package< made by The Muppets< for many devices and have not had any problems with this version.
If heimdall shows messages, quote them here in full.
