Hello, i own a T989 Samsung galaxy s2 and a Samsung Captivate i897 i have tried both Odin 1.8.5 (preferred) and odin 3.0.9 and my T989 is not recognizable by both of them, however on 1.8.5 my Captivate is recognized, i have the usb drivers installed. also this might be a problem that has to do with it, whenever i plug one of my phones (have not tried usb storage) i loose internet connection, i have a wireless stick plugged in and i read somewhere that its taking up too much power so the other Usb slots dont work? any help?

I got a refurbished Infuse with my mom's upgrade earlier this month and I immediately rooted it and installed CM7. Now my USB port has failed and no computer will recognize it through any cable including the one that came with it, on any port on any of the computers. It will not go into download mode, putting the battery in makes it boot instantly ruling out the jig. I have NO way of flashing with USB WHATSOEVER and I can't return it with root and CWM and whatnot because I am pants ****tingly terrified that they will charge me retail for it.

What set of Drivers did you install to recognize your Infuse?
On a side note.... Is ****tingly a word?
When the usb port was working the drivers installed automatically. Now that it's not being recognized by any computer, I've tried: Official Samsung Infuse drivers, Samsung Galaxy S drivers and Kies.
It is now, according to me.
Hey Guys.
I recently flashed the wrong firmware through ODIN onto my NS4G (Nexus S Original bootloader.tar instead of 4G). This in turn left my phone with constant No Service. Now I'm trying to flash the right one, but my phone won't be detected by ODIN, or my PC. It only shows that it's Charging (USB).
I've tried installing Samsung USB Drivers from them and PDANet Drivers. None of them worked.
Please help. Thanks
Alright. So, after bricking my first GS3 while attempting to root and unlock with Odin, I'm feeling confident enough to attempt rooting the replacement I've received. When I plug my phone into my PC while in Odin/Download mode, my computer insists that it's a Samsung USB modem named MSM8960. For the sake of clarity, sanity, and not bricking my Second GS3, is this what I should be seeing when I plug it into the computer in Odin mode? Or is this some driver issue? I installed the proper Samsung drivers for the Verizon GS3 before I plugged it into the computer, and any attempt to manually install a different set of drivers or uninstall the drivers Windows 8 is automatically providing me with when I plug in the device has not been successful. Help?
I realize this is one old thread but I'm having the exact same issue using Odin 3.07 and an S4. When I connect my phone via the USB cable Win7 searches for drivers for an MSM8960 and fails. All Samsung drivers are up to date and installed properly. Would love a solution to Odin recognizing and connecting to my device. TIA
I realize this is an old thread.... BUUUUT, I ran into this issue with my S3 on US Cellular, the simple solution was changing the usb cable and the port and the port on my laptop to a different one. Side note rebooting the computer may help for others but it was not necessary for me.
I hope this helps any future googlers.
If this fixes your issue please thank this post, it will let me know I contributed to your happiness, which will make me feel all warm and fuzzy!
Have a great life all you people I will never meet, who I might unbeknownstly help!
perhaps this can help.
i experience the same thing.
my phone is s4 active shv-e470 from korea, but i use it in indonesia here.
i usually flash my phone in my personal laptop, but i accidentally bricked my phone when i go to my parents home in another city. there is only my sister's laptop there, an asus notebook based on amd brazos. (E2 series processor).
strange thing is, when i put my phone in odin mode, the notebook recognize it as msm8960, so it can not found the appropiate driver. i'am pretty sure i have installes latest samsung usb mobile phone driver at first.
i try to change cable and different usb at same laptop (because that's the only pc in my parent's home) but still the same result.
i become really worried because i think i have bricked my phone and there is no way out.
then i plug my portable 2.5" hardisk into another usb port of the laptop.
suddenly, msm8960 device change into samsung modem and bla bla bla, then windows install appropriate samsung driver,so odin can recognize the phone now.
i flash the firmware quickly, and thank god it can run succesfully.

sorry, i just want to help because both s3, s4 and s4 active, all based on snapdragon chipset.
so when the OP experience the similar thing like me, maybe what i did in the past can help him too.
I had to install the 4.3 firmware on my S3 since it got soft-bricked, but it seems that even though I installed the Samsung USB Drivers and installed Odin, my phone won't connect to Odin. I tried using different charging wires and different USB ports, and that doesn't work either. Even my friend's phone, which was an S3 as well, managed to connect to Odin with the same charging wires. Is it something to do with my phone? I need help with this.
My S3 updated to 4.3 (locked bootloader) and I can't make it connect via USB, it won't connect. I've tried everything, every link I can find, reghacks, drivers (countless installs/etc). I know what I'm doing, I've been using computers longer than a lot of posters here have been alive.
The thing is the device isn't telling the PC what type of Hardware it is, let alone the PC having drivers. I actually think my phone is toast - I'm glad it still charges and you can (if you're not rooted) root via Towelroot without a PC.
Good luck.
So ok, Odin is the only way to go. Everything you have to flash/upgrade, you do it by Odin. Ok...
But, Odin's compatibility? WTF !
I have a notebook with 3 USB ports. All of them are 3.0 USB. None of these ports works with Odin (apparently Odin does not support 3.0 USB ports).
Ok, no problem. My mother has an old notebook, with some 2.0 USB ports. It also doesn't work. Tested with three other notebooks and nothing...
But, my mom also has an old "All In One" computer, apparently with some 1.0 and 2.0 USB ports. This is the only computer that I have access that works with Odin.
So here I am, having to keep a huge box in my bedroom, with an old computer, in case I ever need to use Odin...
So tell me, is this normal? Are you guys able to use Odin with 3.0 USB ports? I want to get rid of this huge box and be able to use Odin freely, in any computer.

Yes, I am using Odin on my notebook with USB3 ports.
Use latest version of Odin and make sure to have installed the correct drivers for your device ... e.g. Samsung device drivers in my case.
Best to check this guide to get started flashing with Odin: https://www.xda-developers.com/update-firmware-any-samsung-phone/

Odin only works on Samsung devices
Ok guys, I do know Odin only works on samsung devices. I have a Galaxy S9 (Snapdragon). And I've also studied a lot about Odin, and I'm using the correct version and also I've installed the correct drivers. I'm also using the official samsung cable.
But whenever I flash something, I get stuck in "SetupConnection...", with the error "Can't open the serial (COM) port."
The only computer that this error does not occur is in this old computer that I have...
I have searched a lot for an answer, but I don't know what I else to do...
