Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 Lite 3G SM-T111 - Unable to flash firmware via Odin - General Questions and Answers

Hi,
I am new to the forum so please forgive me if I have the wrong section where to post.
Anyway, for a few days I've been trying to save a friend's Galaxy Tab 3 Lite, which apparently worked fine until some time ago, but for no reason one day the system stopped booting and the tablet got stuck in bootloop. I tried to download different versions of the firmware, from the oldest to the newest, I tried to install TWRP as the device lacks recovery mode, but nothing, any flash attempt with Odin continues to fail.
I no longer know what to try and I begin to believe that this device is officially to be thrown away. If you have any advice do not hesitate to write to me.
Thank you in advance.

I already flashed the stock firmware on my Galaxy Tab 10.1, so yes, they are installed.

[Q] How to install MTP USB drivers?

I am started to hate Kies and now I'm starting to really hate everything!!
I'm trying to upgrade my Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus Wi-Fi UK GT-P6210 Build number: HTJ85B P6210XXLB1.
I thought I could upgrade via Wifi but apparently it doesn't work (and it doesn't) and I have to use Kies. The ADB USB drives install but the MTP drivers just will not install. I've tried all the workarounds I could find, installed and reinstalled, reset my Samsung and restarted my PC. Same problem. Tried on my Laptop. Didn't work. Downloaded a new Windows MTP driver. I mean this is ridiculous.
Also if I use this SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones.exe or the Kies versions I get a long list of drivers and no indication of which one is the correct one. I tried all of them. Same result.
What next? Destroy it?

The usual set of questions - does your PC see anything when you plug in the tablet? What does device manager show?
A solution that has worked for me in the past with this issue is switching usb ports. I know it sounds crazy but on multiple computers i've found this to be the sole cause for odin or my computer in general not recognizing my device when the drivers are installed.

check for kies to be closed and his background process to be killes, if you do not have kies try to install it to have latest drivers and the stop his background process.
by reboot mode you intend download mode? or recovery? you should see an android man with written "Downloading... Do not turn off target!!" under him!
if you do not have this screen you are not in download mode.
if you are there try what i suggested before and EVERY usb port on you computer!
if also like this you do not find your way try heimdall!
nvm

Windows doesn't detect in Download mode?

Yesterday the official 4.2.2 update came out in Holland so today I tried to update my phone with Kies.
When my S2 Plus entered download mode Windows said that it didn't recognize the device so Kies gave an error that it couldn't go into update mode because it didn't find my S2 Plus in download mode?
Anyone has a way to fix this? I run Windows 8 and just updated to the latest version of Kies.

it should have i think. but u can try reinstall back the driver,see if got any changes
1. check other usb port,
2. check other usb cable (I assume now you use original samsung ones),
3. in case drivers down work - try to force installing them (pick them manually).

Trapped in Download Mode [Possible Brick]

Hi everybody, Yesterday my friend and i were trying to upgrade his Samsung Galaxy Core (GT-I8260L) from official stock jellybean 4.1.2 to kitkat 4.4.4 unnoficial. We rooted it succesfully, installed Super SU, and BusyBox. Then we downloaded a TWRP file to flash it through ODIN. the flash was succesfull but when the phone rebooted it got stuck at the download mode. It doesnt boot, and we can't acces the recovery by any means. it just turns the screen on and show the download mode screen (picture attached).
We have tried everything, but the thing is that the device isn't recogogniced by the pc (We've tried in a win 8.1 and win 7 pc, but had no luck.). It fails to install the right drivers. we've tried to download almost every samsung phone drivers, but none of them worked. ODIN also fails to recognize it.
we also tried Heimdall, but when we try to install the drivers it does recognize the phone as 'MSM7x27' for some reason.
We also have problems setting up the 'SAMSUNG Mobile USB CDC Composite Device Driver', failing to make it work every time we tried to configure it (Automatic Windows Driver Install or Downloading it manually).
I hope someone can at least guide us through the solution or suggest a way to fix it.
Thanks in advance

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
Change usb cable.
Try another port
Try another PC

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.
