Hello dear users of xda. I have a serious problem. My phone is bricked after installing Chainfire 3d driver on jellybean ( i forgot it will not work on JB)
So then i wanted to reflash the Jb MC8 but odin does'nt detect my phone ;(. Tried on 3 pc's tried reinstalling drivers, tried Heimdall still the same.
Recovery mode works, but i dont have a backup. (BTW i have stock recovery of JB MC8) Tried my friend's cable (she has ace 2 too) did'nt work. My flash counter is 2 so i am afraid i might even have to buy a new phone. Can anyone help???

Flash via odin you can don't tick usb debugging, if odin cannot see your device you must reinstall samsung usb driver
You can copy rom cook to extarnal card and flash it via cwm or twrp i hope it work again

Thanks dude!!! (Can any mod close this thread???)
Well.. somehow I managed every time the phone tries to boot it says GT-s7500
i didnt flash any wrong rom... just install Clockwork Recovery from Google Play and tried to install a recovery from there and then Hell broke loose.
it only boots into recovery but i cant install anything. every package i choose to install gives me some error and the installation aboards. I tried various things but nothing really works...
than I downloaded Odin put the phone in the Downloading Mode.. the problem i have there is that despite the Samsung appears in WIndows Device manager ODIN doesnt see it so that I could restore it from there!
any advice would be really helpfull!!
thanks!!

when I plug the USB into the phone there comes a message saying: "odin oops - usb read transaction failed"

well yeah i tried various USB ports... I have managed to do something.. although it is still strange..
I downloaded all ODIN versions... as I sais before the 4.42 didnt see my phone... as any other 4xxxx version...
the only versions that did see my phone when connected were: 1.85 - 1.87 and the 3.09, I repeat 4.42 NOT working...
so tried to flash there... but only errors came up for some reason.... I had downloaded some recoveries for the phone so I tried flashing them. That worked. I got a success.
I tried flashing: stockrecovery-DXKT4-odin.tar
cwm-5.0.2.7-ext4+rfs-odin.tar
cwm-5.0.2.7-ext4only-odin.tar
they were all successfully installed but I just cant flash a firmware,,,, :/
Now when the Phone boots up I get the samsung logo and afer that the yellow exclamation mark!
Though I cant boot in any of the recoveries I previously flashed!!
thank you!!

Try the usb drivers from this link, they should work perfectly. You can use the other files, like the recovery's and gio ops as wel from that link.
Whatever happens to my phone, I use these files to repair my gio and till now, I always succeeded...

That's not a Gio (S5660) DUDE, That's a Mini 2 (S6500), you need Mini 2 firmware for flashing stock via ODIN (v3.04).
Happy Flashing
P.S: Odin (v4.42) is only for Gio and related models.

I had a similar prob with my HTC one. So I flashed boot image (TWRP recovery) using fastboot. Then applied custom ROM using recovery.
Are you using a windows 8 PC for flashing? If so try flashing again from a Windows 7 PC, It works sometimes (I dont know why, but USB driver management of Win8 sucks)
Your phone should be in warranty (I hope so) and you should first give it to Samsung guys if you have original purchase proof. Since u bought it in Chile and using it in Argentina, I dont know if it would be possible. All the best.
hey guys I am developer and I got a bricked note 2.
If I go to philz touch recovery it says cant mount stuff and I cant flash anything.
In Odin it says Complete(write) operation failed.
Is my internal storage dead ?

Another option is to restore using Kies, tried?

Odin 3.09 is actual version and firmware you get HERE.
If I remember correctly there has been a change in partitions with Android 4.3, so hopefully not more than the firmware will be needed.

Then i believe you dont have the classic SDS issue. In that case the product name is blank.
I also have the same issue. No matter what i try (Kies or Odin) everything fails.
I sent the phone to a technician (http://gsm-technix.de/shop/) and he says the emmc chip has failed which he cant fix. Perhaps you have the same issue. But i cannot get absoulte answers if my (and your) symptoms are an SDS

i read in a thread about the same problem as well, you either need a Firmware with pit file included, or other people say it's a cable issue, you need to change the cable, the cable is probably the problem, i had many Odin errors because of wrong cable.
did you try flashing TWRP recovery and see if it boots?

you don't need root to flash TWRP, there's a .tar file for it that can be flashed with Odin.
