[Q] Bricked 2.3.5 i9000 - samsung galaxy s vibrant

Hello Members,
I am new to this site and gone thru lots of forums, youtube and so on for my problem and more I am reading I am unable to find my answer correctly so decided to get your inputs.
I bought Bell - Galaxy S Vibrant 2.3.5 (Gingerbread) phone from Kijiji. Tried to unlock, mistakenly I followed 2.3.3 procedure here on xda to unlock. Phone bricked but was able to go to download mode.
I tried to flash the phone and odin stopped in between, kept as it is for a long time and nothing happened. I pulled it out from USB cable that was connected on the computer and phone bricked again which means now it doesn't even go to download mode at all.
1) Now I am getting a computer and cellphone and in centre a yellow triangle on the screen.
2) Phone does not get to the download mode
3) When I connect thru USB to the laptop, it doesn't detect the phone. Neither kies nor odin. Tried doing on another laptop as well and no luck.
Any suggestions how to fix my phone? Thanks in advance!!

I'm had a pretty similar problem with a Tmobile Vibrant today with 2.2. Apparently you don't need to be in download mode for odin to work, as long as it has a com showing.

I did tried to connect to ODIN and still ODIN is not detecting my phone and I am not getting the COM ID - light up yellow in ODIN
Any inputs please. Thanks!

[Q] Samsung Galaxy S2 not connecting to Samsung Kies after PACMAN ROM upgrade

Hi,
I recently upgraded my Samsung Galaxy S2 ROM to PACMAN ROM 4.2.2. Upgrade was successful and
everything is working fine. The backup I had taken in Samsung Kies is now becoming difficult
to put it back to my phone. I tried all possible ways to connect my phone to Samsung Kies but
this is not working. Due to this I am unable to restore my backup to my phone. Whenever I
connect my phone it gets stuck in connecting message and does nothing. It used to work before
the previous ROM.
What I have done till now:
1) Reinstalled samsung Kies several times (without & with phone connected). Downloaded the
latest kies and installed.
2) Manually installed SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones.exe from kies folder.
3) USB Debugging ON/OFF both way tried - no help. (MTP Enabled always)
4) Removed all phone entries (ADB & other entries) from device manager and reinstalled each
drivers completely - no help
5) Take battery off and restart while kies connected.
6) checked different cable - no help
7) Tried on different laptop - no help
8) Tried connecting Kies with safe mode - no help
Please can anyone help?
Thanks,
Jas

[Q] Samsung Drivers aren't properly detected / Download Mode Problems.

Hello people, I have a particulartly weird problem. I have Samsung S7562, Or S Duos. I had Stock Rom 4.0.4, and decided to flash CosmicRom 3 on it, so of course, I'm rooted and I have Clockwork Mod 5 (Custom version). Also, I have USB Debugging On. One day I decided to go back to stock using Odin, and I got stuck. Here's what I tried:
-Connect the Phone to the PC with 3 cables, using 2 different ports
-Pull out the battery in Download Mode, Boot Windows 7 64 Bit with Phone plugged in
-Turning off USB Debugging
-Installing Kies oddly doesn't work, and also I can't uninstall Samsung Drivers, which is also weird (It crashes).
-I restarted my PC and did all these on my second PC, but no success.
I think that the problem is the driver. When my phone is in Download Mode, it gets recognized as a Samsung Modem, with a modem picture, and it gives me Error Code 10, even though I have proper CDC Drivers installed with which I connect it to Odin. What's the problem here?

i used different cables and pcs but still not recognised
yesterday i used odin with those options :
BL/AP/CP/CSC and checked
Auto-reboot
F.reset Time
phone EFS Clear
Phone bootloader update
it has taking some while to execute but after that my phone was working and detectable again by my pc the problem was resolved for a couple of hours, in the evening the problem occured again.
and i have tried the process again the same why but no connection at all.
i don't know if its a hardware problem or software related problem
because the usb work when i m in restore mode (Odin mode) otherwise no.
Its an advance problem i already check all about usb / cable and pcs related problem.

Problem resolved
I sent my S6 to Samsung SAV it take them 4 days.
they doesn't give me proper answers on what they have done but i saw that my mini-usb plug is new so i expect that they got this part changed accrodingly the samsung has no sign of damage its a clean operation.
Its now detectable. It was indeed a Hardware problem

i have the same issue but in a g928f
today i changer my lcd with the micro usb flex
so all is new except the main board and still is not recognised at any pc with any cable.
i am really starting to feel very sorry for this phone.
odin does not see it at all even at download mode.
i don't know what else to do.

Software or Hardware Issue
I have a s6 920t that I am suppose to pay for at the end of the day. I got it from a friend who bought it while overseas. The only time my computer detects it is in download mode/odin mode, I hear the sound and I see it as "Added". When I try to connect any other way I don't hear the sound my laptop makes when it has detected a new device also otg cables don't work. I just simply want to know if this a software or a hardware issue? Software I can fix but if it is hardware I don't want to waste my money. Please anyone reply as soon as you can so I can decide what to do.
Thank you

I have two S6 Edge and one of them started doing this (phone only appears on USB when in Download mode). When swapping the motherboard between the phones, it works. So the problem isn't with the motherboard, but the USB connection module attached with the ribbon cable... There must be a chip on the module which gets locked somehow and replacing the board is at least one way to fix it. Hopefully someone finds another method without replacing the charger board?

Galaxy Note 10.1 Table not recognized through USB

Hi Everyone,
My Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 stuck on Samsung logo during boot. I cannot even go to recovery mode (power + volume up doesnot work). I can only go to ODIN mode. I downloaded odin tool and corresponding firmware from a website, but my problem is that PC donot recognize my tablet now. It doesnot appear as device or recognised by KIES. I reinstalled KIES (not KIES 3, although KIES3 is also installed on the machine to see but still getting the message "USB Device not recognized". Just to let you know that my 3 samsung mobile phones (S3, S4 and S6) are working fine and perfectly recognized by PC/KIES/Smartswitch
The tablet can be charged without an issue but it is not recognized at all by PC through USB. Looks like a dead end for me. Any help is highly appreciated as otherwise tablet was working fine until this problem occured. My tablet UK model is GT-N8010 and out of warranty.
Thanks
Fayyaz

Download PROPER DRIVERS. Usually they are downloaded by kies but sometimes, they don't work. In case of that, you have to download samsung drivers by yourself. I think you can find it in here or simply google it.
Here is an another issue with laptops that I also encountered: When you plug in, despite you having drivers, pc doesn't recognize it or constantly the device connects and disconnects every 2 seconds. In that case, you need to update your bios version. However, this case is not likely.(If you are not bad luck brian like me) So focus on driver installation.
