Yea true. Ive made some trying to get to certain modes. But never really pushed it. There are suposed to be certain resistances. The s8 is different than most if I'm not mistaken. I saw it wrote up some where. If im not mistaken like 301k was one resistance. I dont remember if ot was dl mode or upload.

[Q] Need help getting my T959V connected for flashing/rooting.

Problem: Cannot get my Samsung T959V to connect to the computer in order to flash/root. Always gives the same "USB Device Not Recognized" error when I plug it in to the computer.
My Progress: Before you guys throw this questions out, let me tell you what I have tried so far. I have been trying to get this damn thing connected to the computer for about 3 weeks now. I have sat down on my computer going through the xda forum in detail trying to find an answer. I know the process of flashing and the xda contributors have some great guides to help us along the way, a big thanks to all ur hard work, but no matter what, I cannot get the phone in download mode or get it connected to the computer.
* I have read the Download Mode post and tried all 5 ways without luck.
* Have read all things related to Keis Mini and how it sucks when it comes to the T959V and other ppl have had the same problem.
* Have tried connecting in Keis mode, usb debugging mode but still the same error.
If someone can help me get my phone connected to the computer, I am sure I can take of the rest since everything is available on the SGS4G Bible, thanks for that also.
Is there anything I have missed or not tried yet? Please help. Thanks in advance for anyone who reads this post as it is my first. Usually I don't have to post since all the documentation is always up-to-date and available but this problem is killing me
Additional Information: Bought the phone from a cell-phone store I use to work at. Has Android 2.3.6 on it. Have done the factory reset and tried to get it to connect, no luck. Not sure if it has been flashed before, pretty sure it hasnt but the flashed download mode method didnt work also. Have android-sdk installed and have tried pointing the .inf file to the google usb-drivers in the sdk, no luck. Download both 32-bit and 64-bit drivers for this phone from multiple locations, still no luck trying to connect. Have also tried multiple computers and multiple v9 cables, no luck.
Have you installed the Samsung drivers? You mention google drivers but samsung has it's own. You should be able to find them in the noobs guide to Odin thread. DL mode should work as well regardless of what drivers you have installed. Pull the battery, plug usb into computer, plug phone into usb, hold down BOTH vol + and -, insert battery. I've never not seen that method work.

Yup tried both 32-bit and 64-bit drivers on multiple computers. Tried the download mode method u said also. Trust me have tried everything I have read about and know, but no luck.
But the phone charges fine? Could be a bad USB port. Or partially bad. Have you tried a jig? If that doesn't work I'd say your hardware is screwed up somewhere.

Yup it charges fine. Both when I plug it into the wall and the computer. What's a jig? Don't think I have tried that yet. If something can let me know for sure its a hardware problem, then I will stop obsessing over this, hahaha. Thanks for ur help btw.
A jig is a nifty little device that plugs in to your USB port on the phone and then gets you to DL mode. Their mostly used to recvover from bad flashes(like flashing the wrong phones kernel). Here's a link:

Awesome bro. I will see if I have time to make the jig, if not i will just order it.
Also, is there any way to flash/root without DL mode or USB debugging or using Keis? My recovery mode works but that's all. Was wondering if there was a way i could flash/root from the 'apply update from sdcard' option in the recovery mode?
Seems like a driver error have u tried one of the heimdall one clicks http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1358498
They will put u back to stock with a modified rooted kernel .
If anything try and manually point to the drivers in device manager. Or download android sdk and use the google drivers ?

There was with Froyo but with GB it's all been put into the kernel. So not that I'm aware of. However one of the GB leaks changed the key mapping of the phone. I forget which one but that might be the issue. Go to settings>about phone>build number and let me know what that says. post the base band as well.

As requested,
Build number: GINGERBREAD.VUVKJ6
Baseband version: T959VUVKJ6
Well that is the official GB release so now I officially have no idea why you can't get into DL mode. Get the jig and let me know if that works. Good luck.

Will do. Thanks for ur help.
I downloaded the terminal emulator app and tried doing 'reboot download' but says 'operation not permitted,' any way to get around that? Or any other non-button or non-adb way to get into download mode? Other than the jig? Or is it possible to get su privileges on an unrooted device for the 'reboot' command to work in the terminal emulator app?
It's giving you "not permitted" because you don't have root. Have you tried Super One Click to root? If you can get SOC to root it you can use terminal to force DL mode.
If you haven't hears the link.

DL 2.3.1. It should come with the android drivers as well. Worth a shot. If it doesn't work it doesn't damage the phone at all.

Im trying it now but for SOC to work, i have to have the proper drivers to get my phone connected. Will see whether the drivers that come with SOC work for my phone.
No luck with the SOC 2.3.1 drivers. They r the same as the android-sdk drivers
Will try the jig. Hope it works.
Have you tried using this DRIVER SWEEPER to remove the drivers?

Im sorry I am having mouse issues that deleted part of my response..
Sometimes a residual driver will not allow you to properly install the drivers. I had a LG driver from my old phone that was conflicting with Samsung driver.
Also this is a new root process. I do not know if it will work or not. But Hell its worth a try right?

[Q] PC & Odin not recognizing my INFUSE

I've got hard time with my Rogers infuse to get it back to stock rom. it just went completly dead.
I've got a USB JIB from ebay and YES!! my phone is into download mode now but when I plug it into my PC it does not show up. and neither on ODIN. The phone is not working at all I need to remove the battery and put the usb JIG to get it into download mode and that the only thing that I can see or do with the phone. can anyone help me with that please? :crying: All I want is to get it back to stock rom and re-use again my phone
thanks all
Try different cables first.
Sent from my SGH-I997 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
The cable is a longshot. I've had this happen a bunch. It has to do with your drivers. Find the right ones and you will be golden.
For a longshot quickfix, this happens to me if i have my phone plugged into my USB 1.1 port on the front of my PC, as opposed to the USB 2.0 on theback (only when doing a back-to-stock/Download Mode operation).
Good luck man.
I've tried with at least 5 cables, none of them works.
As for the drivers I've installed kies, this should be enough I think?
Anyone can help please?

If you plugged it in to your pc and you get a non-recognition or unkknown usb device, your usb port may be bad.

So even if the phone is charging via USB, this port may be bad?

Try that jscotts Odin to stock guide, but this will change your Rogers infuse to At&t infuse GB 2.3.6
And you'll lose all your contacts.So make a backup!
Then,
Using SGS Kernel flasher for GB only, flash CWM 1.2GHz in this thread

[Q] How do I get my phone to be in Com1 of the Device Manager?

When I plug my phone in, it ends up putting my phone in the Portable Devices section. I need it in the Ports section to flash my phone. Does anyone have any ideas?

I'm not sure what you mean by that. I have tried front and back USB ports. For some reason it will not go to any of the Coms.

You can find Samsung USB drivers here.
http://www.teamandroid.com/download-android-usb-drivers/
Alternatively, the drivers should automatically be installed when you install Smart Switch desktop app which you can get from Samsung's website.
Once the drivers are installed you should be and to plug in the phone and all should be OK.
I'd have thought that installing Kies would have fixed your issue so the above may not work but my fingers are crossed for you

Made sure it was connected to a USB 2.0 port? And not a 3.0 port when trying?
Also if it's a "hard brick" you cannot fix that.

If there's no download or fastboot mode I don't think there's nothing else can be done about that.
