[Q] Help! Odin not detecting my galaxy 3.

Hello, i want help please, anyone can you tell me how to get odin to detect my phone coz it is not detecting the ohne and i m stuck in d middle of installing ics on my phone.

Restart everything
Restart you phone into d/w mode (if your hardware buttons are working ), restart you computer. Now it should detect.
And while you're in the process of flashing, make sure you the cable doesn't get disconnected.

This happened with me too, I just deleted odin & again extracted it from the rom folder(In every kyrillos rom package you can find odin)...
Just delete the old odin & get a new one, it will work...

Is this the first time you are using odin in your computer ? or your already detected before only now it is not detecting ?
because odin works fine in my computer , but wen i try it in my friend's computer
it did not detect
-> reinstall your phone drivers it might help
-> if i am correct Odin detect your phone only in download mode

Come out of odin and just plug your phone in to the comp, if the comp recognises it then you know your usb drivers are working fine on phone and comp, if not then thats your problem. reinstall drivers.
If it did recognise then the problem is with odin. Theres loads of versions out there that have pathway issues and other problems due to the way theyve been aquired or packaged. try typing "I5800_Odin_Multi_Downloader_v4.252.exe" its what i did and mine works everytime.
If i helped, hit thanks

Try with another USB port. It will probably work if you´d try, because I had a similar problem. PC simply didn't recognize my Samsung Galaxy 3, but when I plugged the phone in another USB port, the phone was recognized and so was Odin. But of course it wont go without appropriate drivers.

I had the same problem yesterday and switching USB-ports didn't help. It seemed I didn't have Kies installed so the USB-drivers were missing... After installing Kies everything went fine

hey, I had the same issue.. and what I did to resolve was : I downloaded USB drivers from the below link..installed and rebooted my system..and tried again..it finally got detected..I hope it helps..
link for drivers :
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=728929

What worked for me was after installing the Samsung driver, I updated the driver from the Device Manager while the phone was plugged in and in download mode.Odin found the phone after that.

Battery percentage
Make sure your Battery Percentage is More than 50 %
Check your USB cable is in Working Condition .....

No...
It installs drivers if the device already has the same included...
Fit is not plug-and-play, which means you need to install drivers manually...or install kies...
Whichever you prefer...

You don't have to use it if you don't want. Installing Kies means you're installing USB drivers, you don't have to start kies everytime when you connect ur phone through usb. I've installed kies but never used it. I use it HIGHLY OCCASIONALLY.

Yup kies is waste of mem (if u ask me ) for drivers go to sammobile website registr n check our phn specific drivers its just around 25mb file dats easy if u dnt want kies

I found it easier to install drivers kies then uninstall kies

Even after installing kies it is still charging. Device is not connected to kies.
hey i am using the usb cable of galaxy ace. is it the problem? but i think these cables can be used on both the devices.

I use the same cable on 2 different blackberry's, my nokia 5310 and c3, samsung monte, and acer liquid metal...
So I don't think that's the problem...
Have you tried using a different computer?

yes i have triedon different computers also.. but its not working there too.

Hi.
I had the problem too. I did this to connect my phone:
1. Go in DownloadMode. Now, the computer must install drivers, like odin.
2. If the installation finished, hold down the Powerbutton for 10 seconds. It'll restart, if nothing happens try to start with holding the powerbutton again.
3. Then, if the phone is started, your computer finds the phone!
I'm not responsible for any damages!!!!

Odin without Samsung Kies?

Hi to all. I have this problem before, Samsung Kies wont open in my windows 7 but in xp sp3 ok. So i played games and wanna go back to directx 11 in w7 unfortunately as i have said KIES wont open and there is some problem regarding the coprocessors when i plug my sl in pc "drivers are not successfully installed" when i troubleshoot the problem is the coprocessor w/c is a nature bug in w7 drivers.
So can i "flash and use odin install Croms, Stockroms,Kernels, without installing KIES?" How about the drivers? Does the problem regarding coprocessor affects the drivers of sl?
Any help will be appreciated.

Yep.Odin requires kies usb drivers to detect your phone i.e. the comm box in Odin will not turn yellow, indicating no usb drivers
Swyped from my RemICS powered sl

Thanks for the quick respone but what do you mean by yep? You mean i CANNOT? I saw a download link for Samsung USB drivers, he said that it was extracted from the CD itself (the kies cd) so i wonder if it will work. I saw the comments and i think it was positive to them. Though its not for SGSL but i think the cd we have is universal if im not mistaken?

By yep i meant yes u do need kies for Odin.about those drivers u mentioned, the easiest way to check if they work is to see if the com box turns yellow on connecting phone in download mode...
Swyped from my RemICS powered sl

oh is that so? If Odin sees it at Yellow then there will be no more problem am i right?? Then so, even i cant open the KIES still i can be able to use odin coz i tried it before Odin com port is yellow though kies is not opening. Thanks mate!

kies is s### like rest of Samsung software....

I have similar problem ( not exact same.
I am able to charge my phone using usb, not able to connect phone in any mode to transfer files. Not even in download mode.
Since I was on cm9 a8 , I took a back up and using mobile odin flashed KPU to see if it works in stock. No use.and now am stuck work unrooted KPU .
is there any way to get root without
using USB CABLE.

Yes use Odin mobile. Or there is a kernel that you can flash using recovery mode right?

To flash a zipped kernel I need cwm which I don't have.
I can't flash anything with stock recovery

You don't actually need Kies to be installed to use Odin. Just make sure Samsung USB drivers are installed: [forum.xda-developers.com].

Yes ur right there. Just figured it out though before posting it here

HELP!!! USB Debugging mode is disabled and my phone s in boot loop!!!!

Please help me... i try to install other roms but after that i cant access recovery mode all i can do is to go to download mode.. the problem is my usb debug is turn off now my computer cant recognize my phone/usb driver... anyone here know how to fix my problem please help me:crying:

First, what phone, exactly from under the battery sticker.
Second, what did you do to boot loop it.
Third, you don't need USB Debug mode to fix it, you need Download mode, which if it boots even to loop, download mode will work.

my phone is samsung galaxy s 4g model: SGH-T959V
I install IceCreamSandwich Accidentally now my phone keep restarting
Yes i can go to download mode the problem is my computer always saying unknown drivers but i got all the drivers i need i read to the forums that when using odin and SDK something like that the phone should be on USB DEBUGGING MODE "ENABLE" so thats why I THINK that my computer cant recognize my phone... pls help me how to fix this thanks in advance

Was having a similar USB driver issue. What worked for me was re-starting the whole process on a different computer. Installed drivers via Samsung Kies mini and that did the trick for me.

Odin never cared if I was debugged on for me..
Odin and the one clicks, that's another story. They don't play nice together on same machine. I would need to revert drivers or completely uninstall & reinstall drivers when switching between. If you're getting Andy & shovel, this is fixable.

My best guess is to use heimdall with stock firmware as I always have an issue with already rooted stock.

Do you have the full set of USB drivers installed? Or do you only have the drivers that auto-install when you first connected the device?
If you have the full drivers installed, have you tried in installing the drivers then restarting PC then re-installing the drivers and restarting PC then try Odin again?
Have you made sure that you don't have Kies running in the background? Kies must be fully closed and have no processes running, it interferes with Odin.
Have you tried different USB ports? 2.0 ports work better with Odin than 3.0 ports.
Have you tried different USB cables?

you need a microwave to defrost it
Anyway, if you have windows update, the drivers should install automatically. If they don't, try this https://androidmtk.com/download-samsung-usb-drivers Just choose your model and download
