Stuck! For some God forsaken reason, when my phone is in DL mode Odin or any computer that i tried will read the phone. I have tried different drivers thats been posted in this forum along with different settings like turning on/off developer mode before going to DL mode.
So I cant use Odin to update my modem on my phone.... is there a file that i can roll back to the DI18? I use the update.zip from DI18>DK28 and hoping that i can revert that way and go get EC05 through CWM.
This doesn't belong in development, hopefully impaler will be here to move it soon.
We need more info to be able to help, like:
What OS is the computer running?
Do you have the Samsung drivers installed?

I have the same problem myself.
DK28 is an unsupported build. The update script posted above won't work.
In DK28 USB communication died and as such Odin is not an option. The only option as far as I know is to flash a FULL ROM which has a DI18 modem as part of the ROM using CWM. You will just have to put the file on the SD card manually using a PC since USB is not an option.
After you go to DI18 just follow the regular steps to go from DI18 -> EC05 (may need multiple steps with EB13 intermediate step)
I haven't gotten around to doing this myself yet, still stuck on DK28.

so flash a rom that have a di18 rom and hope for the best?
it seems that i have that i cannot find a rom that is supported with cwr 3.0+ to flash back to di18 =(
There is no reason DK28 should have effected being able to use Odin at all as LiberatorUSA has suggested, as many here running custom roms have more than likely run a version of DK28 at one time, and the only way to update the modem from DK28 is through Odin. And while you can flash a different rom through CWM (such as those based on DI18, EB13, or even EC05), you will still need to use Odin to update the modem. If you really think DK28 is to blame, then you can flash to an EC05 rom (such as SRF 1.1.0, as it supports CWM3) and then try to re-Odin from there.
Here are some basic things to try, as I don't see them listed in what you have done... Have you tried using every usb port on your computer? Are you using the stock usb cable? Have you tried other cables? Completely uninstall all previous drivers before trying to install different drivers. Open your device manager and connect your phone in DL mode, watching to see what devices appear, then manually attempt to uninstall those specific devices.
Download the epic drivers direct from Samsung. The first time connecting may take up to 15 minutes as there are some parts that Windows 7 seems to want to find on the net. After all drivers report installed then put your phone in download mode (hold 1 key while booting on) start Odin then plug your phone in. A COM number should show up on the computer screen. If this doesn't work try another data cable.

I have tried it in multiple computers and the odin do recognize the phone untill i go to DL mode, i Dl the drivers directly from samsung and it did took awhile to find the drivers. It recognize the device until i go to DL mode, I have used my samsung cable , my wifes htc evo cable and my mom's droid x cable. All the same result, i spent the whole day trying to figure it out. I had a fresh install of winxp and win7 on two different laptops.
I installed the DK28 through a CWM, i have been having odin problems since day one and not just this time.

Ok, my phone was getting low on battery and started going haywire. I charged and reflashed the rom but now my phone wont sync with my comp after trying numerous things. It was the truly epic rebirth rom.
Any idea what might have happened? I tred different usb cables, rebooting drivers but nothing. The phone still charges but no syncing. Is there a internal driver in the phone that syncs the phone that might have been corrupted?
BTW I posted this to impalers747 Q/A thread but we seemed to be stumped to. Thanks for tryin yogi and impaler747 but I figure more people might see this if I make a thread and someone might of had a similar issue.
Odin back to DK28 and reflash the ROM. There might be another way, but that is what I would do.

I haven't done this, but you should be able to use CW to flash your phone back to the stock ROM and then go from there. Here is a link for an older thread that discussed it and has links to the stock ROM. I am hoping you can get into CW, and if you can you should be able to flash from your sd card

You still should be able to. I think this would fix your problem. And you can always use CW to get back to a rooted DK28 instead of using one click root. Or, if you haven't already tried, you could wipe and try a different ROM. The sync could just be a DK28 issue and a different ROM might have what makes it work.

I had a problem with connecting my device to my laptop. My laptop would never see my phone but odin was still able to see it with some playing around. This happened to me on di18. In order for me to get back to dk28 I had to odin the extended tar so I had root and everything.
Before trying to odin I cleaned out the micro usb port on the phone with a q-tip tabed in rubing achole. I even switched to my girls blackberry charger. I no longer have issues even when using my samsung cable but I try to use either my evo or her blackberry cable. Before doing any of this I suggest uninstalling and re-installing the proper drivers.

What ext4 script? Stock di18 and stock dk28 don't have ext4. So if you are on plain jane dk28, then you aren't on ext4. And if you are going to di18, you aren't converting to ext4.
I had ext4 script otherwise i wouldnt been able to install those new roms before the update. Im not sure what to do from here now since I'm back to stock backup and rom manager doesnt work for ****
Hi, im on the DK28 version of froyo, i cant update to ec05 because the phone will no longer mount to any pc, i have tried multiple pc's and multiple cords and cannot get the phone to mount.
When i try to flash the an update.zip other than the dk28 version i get errors. The phone used to have root but when i reflashed DK28 thinking it would fix the sd card issue, i lost root. I cant 0ne click it, i cant odin a rom. It left the Superuser application behind (Which I cant uninstall). Also I tried a wipe data/factory. When i try updating to EC05 i was getting an error 2. Basically im completely stuck on DK28.
At the very least i need to get the superuser application off the phone so i can return it since i believe the mounting issue is a hardware failure.
Does anyone have an update.zip that will not give me a signature error? Or have something i can try to get this fixed enough to return it to sprint.

Unfortunatly ive tried 3 different cables as well as different computers and different usb ports on each one of them. What i need is a Non-pc involved solution for this. I can live without mounting the phone to the pc, if i could just get upgraded to Sprints official EC05 rom. I know it has its problems, but at least it wont lock me out of ota like DK28 has, and then i can at least take the phone bak to the store at my liesure.
Have you tried removing and reinserting the SD card? When you 3 finger the phone you only get stock recovery? Does the charge light come on with the data cable in the USB port?

yes to both. odin does not see the phone. Im certain that its a hardware problem at this point, which is why im looking for an update zip i can manually put on the card that will let me flash ec05 on to the phone and erase super user. at the very least i want to remove super user.

Im Sorry i should have clarified this. The phone can see the SD cards just fine..Internally. But when i connect a cable (any cable, i have 4) to the pc (any pc, i tried on 3 dif pc's one xp, two windows 7), i cannot see the cards from the PC, odin does not see the phone, etc, basically interfacing between the 2 is nil. I am currently taking the micro sd card out of the phone, putting it into a usb adaptor and copying files to it from the pc that way, then returning the card to the phone in order to try to update it. My problem is, i need a Rom that will update without trying to verify the signature since it thinks my phone is rooted, even though it isnt anymore. At this point i wouldnt even mind a wipe since i did that yesterday anyway, just going back to DK28 Stock. Problem with Dk28 is it doesnt allow the OTA of Ec05 to come in.

In my current state, is it possible to flash a stock EC05 from the default recovery?
I could then use one of the root methods without ODIN, then get CWM, then flash back to GB using a rooted kernel / custom ROM...
Just flash an EC05 ROM, you are rooted right? Reread it...guess not. No, there is nothing you can flash from stock recovery that will take you back to EC05 from GB.

Give Heimdall a try. It has it's own drivers.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
I had tried Heimdall from a Macbook Air as well (in addition to the other 4 computers I mentioned in the reference thread). It did not work. It did not do anything, similiar to Windows.
However, I did manage to get ODIN to work!!! Same setup I've always used, which until this incident, had always worked (same PC, same USB port, same cable, same phone, same person, same room in the house, etc.).
The only thing I did was uninstall the drivers completely, then reinstall, rebooting in between every step.
Afterwards, I opened ODIN, put phone in download mode, and BAM!, like magic, it worked again. 7 seconds later, I had CWM (ACS 5 1.0.0.0) installed!
Now, I am not sure it had anything to do with re-installing the drivers because:
1. I had the phone briefly connect once during the 4-ish day period... I was booted into Android, Windows did the USB connected sound and I saw "Samsung" under USB Devices in Device Manager. Then, when I removed the cable and booted into download mode, nothing...
2. I expected to hear the USB connection sound, regardless if the drivers worked on not. I would then expect to get a message stating "Could not install drivers" or something to that extent. Perhaps my perception is wrong?
3. No other computer, which had the drivers freshly installed, detected the phone, even with the same USB cable I know works.
Anyways, once CWM was in place, rooting took another few seconds. Ti Backup restored and all seems to be well.
Thanks everyone!
Yup. Happened to me too once. Out of the blue my computer would not recognize my phone with usb debugging on. Reinstalled the drivers and it was fine.

I download an app called USB switcher and made sure it’s on the mass storage but still inoperable.
When the USB cable connection is made the computer gives and audible note a will briefly flash a storage device for a second in the Computer – Devices with Removable Storage window then quickly disappears.
I’ve tried going back to the EL29 stock ROM about three times and the USB connection works fine with ICS Android 4.0.3 but doesn’t function at all with the latest ICS based custom ROM with the Galaxy S3 theme?
I'd first try to uninstall any samsung drivers you have on your PC then re-install them. Get em here http://org.downloadcenter.samsung.c...342248/Sprint_d710_USB_Driver_v1_3_2360_0.exe
Also try a different USB port AND cable.
If that fails I'd grab Mobile Odin from the market and download one of sfhub's one-clicks and install it (he has instructions for flashing from the phone on signature http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=23478866&postcount=869 in his posts.)

After following this post (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1721229) by sfhub, my machine won't recognize my phone via USB. It worked fine before when I rooted and installed CWM on the EL29 build. USB connection worked fine after upgrade to ICS FF18 as well. Only after running ODIN root did I have an issue reconnecting to install CWM.
Error from Windows states "Device Malfunction. Device cannot be recognized via USB..."
Tried reinstalling Samsung drivers and updating Windows. Nada. Any one else having this issue and/or have a resolution?

Should also note that I did a "Keep User Data" install option. Will try and do the wipe version tonight and see if that resolves anything.
no USB

I just installed the latest stock FF18 Modem/Kernel/ROM and the USB connection works fine now.

How did you do that without USB connection? My phone has a problem and I need to get it completely back to stock for warranty repair. A week or so ago I lost USB connect-ability. I do not have ICS installed.

Download a stock rom to your computer, then use a wifi app to load it on your phone, use mobile Odin app to flash it.

Since there are a lot of issues upgrading via Kies here is what I did. Make sure you use the original USB that you got with the phone and that you plug it into a port on the BACK of the computer directly; not into a hub or any other peripheral.
Here is what you should do if the phone is completely stock:
1.) Go to www.samsung.com/us/kies and download Kies for Windows
2.) Install Kies, which will take a little while
3.) Plug original USB into the back of the computer, then into the phone. Non-OEM cables are the cause of a lot of issues. Sometimes non-OEM works, most of the time not.
4.) Wait for your computer to install the phone drivers
5.) Kies should recognize the phone after a little while and prompt you to update.
6.) *OPTIONAL* The update doesn't wipe the phone, but I made a backup anyway.
7.)After you accept to update it will download the file and your phone will go into download mode. At this point my computer had to install a generic USB driver and after that it started flashing the update.
I posted this in the JB thread, but it was buried within minutes so I figure a new thread might help,

Thanks! Kies worked perfect for me. Mostly stock LH9 rooted w/ 4 mods and TWRP installed. Flash counter was at 4.
lol glad someone got something out of it. There are a lot of people posting about issues flashing so I figured it should have its own thread.
I actually had to do the same thing but I Had to go back and download the drivers for the phone. Even after it did it automatically when I hooked up the phone.

I tried this method a dozen times and failed. Did it through Odin instead and all is well.

i can NEVER update my SG3 & tab thru Kies, so i use mobile ODIN, d/l new roms from sammobile firmware instead
