I was flashing something onto my device and now I only get the "A error has occurred while updating the device software" screen and I've tried using Odin to flash the original firmware on os but Odin gives me this error: "Can't open the serial(COM) port" I tried every fix and none of them worked. Can anyone help me to fix this?
Did you install the usb drivers first? If not here:

try a different usb port on the computer, and if that doesn't work try a different cable.
Do you have samsung kies or smth installed?

Besides samsung kies, you should also uninstall and reinstall the correct drivers from the samsung website. Also sometimes something as simple as getting a new usb cable will fix this probem. Sounds kinda dumb but ive had samsung phones that work with one cable and are not recognized by another.

I've had that cable problem too, it was due to a cheapo "charge only" USB cable that came with a free charger... lesson learned!
[Solved] Odin doesn't detect your phone. Drivers error. Blah Blah...
Folks!
Your phone BRICKED???
ODIN Doesn't detect your phone???
Shows Driver Error Code 37???
Stuck in bootloop???
Well Well!
Everything is fine.
Don't just try all the solutions online.
The problem is installation of samsung drivers over and over again is replacing the existing drivers instead of wiping them out. So, the drivers have become incompatible with your device and as well as ODIN.
The solution is very simple.
Just reinstall your operating system of pc, install drivers and then You will definitely find what the magic with the drivers.
Hope you found it helpful...
ok gents...and ladies, this is for an sgh-t959v galaxy s 4g. My son was trying to flash a rom to his phone and somehow, I have no idea, screwed the pooch and his phone is now stuck in "downloading" mode. the battery was pulled for several days and when the phone is rebooted it goes immediately to the "downloading" screen. any help what so ever would greatly be appreciated. Not: its not stuck in download mode...well sort of, its stuck downloading.
You could either ODIN or Heimdall back to stock and that should fix it.

pc will no longer recognize device
It also said that for me but i was still able to use odin even with that message. Try plugging in your phone into all usbs until you get some sort of yellow box on odin and from there you can use it to recover your phone.

Did you try every single usb port? If you did then you might need to clear the drivers for the usb ports and i dont remember the process exactly but i do remember using USBdeview i think.

thank you.. will try USBdeview is it? or is it USBreview? i have tried all ports and have installed unistalled the drivers several times
If you have both Odin and hemidall drivers installed, they will clash (most of the time).

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

First uninstall and reinstall the drivers for your phone. Get them from Samsung site just to be safe. also try redownloading odin from a different website, could be a bad download. and 'm assuming you have a good USB cable and good USB Ports.
also what model phone are you using? that's in settings--about device--model number

Hi, I'm kinda having the same problem the original poster is having.
My problem is, my windows 7 computers do not see the phone at all, no matter which cable/USB port I use. No beep, no trying to install drivers, no nothing. I'm assuming that unless windows sees the device to begin with... I won't be able to use kies or Odin or heimdall or adb or anything right?

ok, have you checked device manager to see if the phone shows up there? and you're right if it isn't being detected than you can't use it basically lol. I know sucks.
honestly, download the drivers manually and install them. If you're not sure how to check device manager or find the drivers google is you're friend :good: hope you get it working!

Drago, thanks for trying to help me, can't tell you how much I appreciate it bro. Now when it comes to windows, I'm no noob, I actually own a small business going out to people's houses and fixing their computer/WiFi/printer problems. So device manager, yeah I tried "scanning for new hardware" tried and tried, checked and checked, restarted, tried safe mode, tried using different administrator account, nothing. That's when I got this gut sinking feeling, what if something is wrong with the USB port on the phone.
It's a SM-S820L, galaxy core prime. No sound when I plug it in, nothing shows up in 'my computer', no tuh noon sound, and I remember back when the phone was working like normal, I tried to get a picture or two off of it by plugging it in while it was on, I remember it showed up in windows no problem, even without the drivers from Samsung installed. Now nothing happens, even though it says download mode.
I still need your help Drago, don't forget about me

alright well you have one of 3 issues then honestly.
1. phone USB port like you said
2. the PC/laptop USB or..
3.cable or driver issues.
make sure your completly uninstall the phones drivers in device manager while the phone is plugged into the PC. next unplug the phone, restart, reinstall actuall samsung drivers, than try pluggin in again. use a known working USB port also.
sorry I can't give you an answer that's the best I can think of, let me know how it goes!

You can try redownloading Odin and also running Odin as an administrator, that's been the case one in a while. lastly uninstall and reinstalling drivers could help. If this does'nt do it sorry, I'm all out of ideas.
I have same problem with Odin v4.42 and work with Odin3_v3.04,try different version of Odin.
i am not a phone geek. i'm frustrated at the difficulty in getting a clear answer as to how to unbrick my G550T after getting "Custom binary blocked by FRP lock."
I've attempted approx 5 different "SOLVED" methods, none to any avail.
I know i'm not permanently bricked - i've been through this before. someone, please help???
I've downloaded Odin but it won't see my phone even when i boot my phone into DL mode.
Please help, someone?
Have you installed the samsung USB drivers? Tried different USB ports and/or cables.
You're on the right track here. Flashing stock firmware should solve it.

Try uninstalling any of these if you have them:
1) Kies
2) Smart Switch
3) Samsung USB drivers
Then reinstall just the drivers and try Odin again.
Make sure it's a stock USB cord
Try different USB ports (i.e. 2.0, 3.0)
Try a different PC

Interestingly, I was unable to install Kies3 - kept stalling. I'm on a Samsung laptop/Win7.
Would Kies not help if i am able to install it?
I'll attempt your other suggestions. thanks

Kies can interfere with Odin, all you need is your stock firmware file, the USB drivers and Odin.
