How about Heimdall? It has its own drivers. Otherwise with stock there is no way to get a clockworkmod recovery in without it.

so you dont have CW of any version? the su.zip file was all i needed to load but if you have no loader, you need to odin or heimdall. try a direct usb port fro mthe motherboard or wipe out your samsung drivers and reinstall. Heimdall messed up my samsung drivers after i ran it so i reinstalled them.

Every time my Odin acts up it is a driver uninstall, reboot, reinstall, and/or switch cables and usb ports until I find the secret combination that both windows and Odin can agree upon for the session.

[Q] Need help with friends bricked phone

My friend recently bricked her phone by installing the wrong kernel. Is there anyway I might be able to help her fix this? I put the phone into download mode and tried to connect to odin but it doesnt seem to find the phone. Are there any other ways to fix this? Any info would be highly appreciated.
DL the drivers reboot and try again. Try a different cable. If you can into DL mode its gonna be ok
I agree try downloading the drivers and flash a stock kernel. DL mode usually means no brick.
Edit: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1274337 Go here for the drivers needed for odin to work.

Uninstall and reinstall kies. You can flash the stock Tom via Odin and then re root

Does your friends sbl show the phone to be an I9100?
Shoot me a pm if you have any questions. Long story short is an I9100 sbl disables the SPH-D710 USB controller.

[Q] USB port fried, can't ODIN. Need to flash stock ROM from stock recovery?

So I kept getting the "Charging Paused. Voltage too high" error pop up, my USB port wont connect to Odin via PC. So I used Mobile Odin to flash stock EL29 .tar, that sent it in to a bootloop. So know I'm stuck with stock recovery and can't boot into a working ROM. I need a stock unrooted update.zip?
I don't think one exists but I could be wrong.
do you have kies installed? did you try a factory reset in stock recovery?
Yeah I tried all of that. Since I can't connect over USB, I used Mobile Odin to flash a stock .tar. Something went wrong, I can tell it half flashed because it loops at the Sprint boot screen. All I can do is get in to stock Android Recovery and Download mode, which is useless since I can't connect to Odin.
Go into stock recovery and factory reset and reboot

Thank you for your advice, but no dice. Think it was a bad flash to start.
Have you tried just a recovery, and not the whole rom? Is it your phone or comp throwing the flag?

If none of that works just bring it into a store and tell them that its stuck in a bootloop. They will try to see what they can do and if they cant fix it they will order an AE. Free if you have TEP, $35 if you dont.

I've tried it on my Mac with heimdall didn't work. My kies on my Mac will read the phone and let it connect but aft won't read. But heimdall does detect a device. It fails when it comes to debugging. Idk what to do. I want to root!!! Please help me!

[Q] Odin hangs on modem file

Can someone please help!
When I go to try to flash my Epic 4g Touch to stock rom Odin hangs on the modem file and will not complete. this bricks my phone and I have to install Cyonogenmod Recovery and install Paranoid Android. Nothing else will install. But when I do I have no service and it says I'm in airplane mode.
I have tried every rom I Can find using Odin and CYM. I have tried all cables and installed and removed sd card. Can someone please help me get back to stock rom with a modem file?
Different usb port? Also, try installing a flashable zip modem in CWM.
