Odin works, but Heimdall keeps giving me these errors. I tried all usb ports and multiple usb cables.
I've followed the guides (cm wiki) properly, it just don't cooperate.
Any ideas?
Anybody?

It's probably your phone drivers. Uninstall and reinstall them. Reboot. What are you trying to do exactly?

Tried reinstalling drivers but never tried uninstalling them.
Trying to manually flash the most up to date clockwork touch recovery.
I'm an HTC guy who likes fastboot so heimdall makes sense to me.

Uninstall and reinstall of drivers didn't change anything. Same error.
I'm uninstalling everything I can think of now, including Kies.

Did that, but then I need to wait for someone else to make a pda file of the newest touch recovery.
I'm trying to upgrade to the very newest one that I downloaded from clockwork.

Just a thought: are you making this harder on yourself by doing it through Heimdall? You can flash the most up to date compatible CWM touch recovery through the ROM Manager app. Unless there's something I'm missing, you should try that instead.

Didn't want to pay for it when Heimdall is right there, but it's really more about wondering why it doesn't work.
Besides, seems like a useful tool.

Okay first I apologize if this has been asked before but my question.is if I run the oneclick cwm 3.0 root do I need to flash the "Default Stock Dual FS Kernal" if im flashing to bonsai or any other rom?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Most roms include the kernal, if they need something they will let you know generally.

So Ive pretty much given up on trying to connect my phone to my laptop. Any way to root this phone with an app or something?? Like gingerbreak or z4root??

Nope, you need to flash cwm recovery through Odin then flash superuser.zip to root. Maybe rom manager has the cwm. Then reboot into recovery then flash the zip but I'm not sure. I don't use rom Manager

Isn't there SuperOneClick? I've never used it, so I'm not sure if it's an application used on the PC or on the phone.

Was your problem narrowed down to your phone or the pc? I had a similar problem, but it was driver issues. After downloading Kies, it works fine.
I'm just sayin!

I thought it was the other way around, but anyways. Odin really is the easiest way to root the phone, hardly takes any time either.

Actually there is a way.
Here is how I did it.
Download Rom Manager FREE and Premium.
Flash clockworkmod recovery for GSII Tmobile
Download Superuser from "Download Rom" section and scrolling down to where it says "Superuser"
Install the latest Superuser, and you're done!
It's that easy.
And then to get busybox, you can search the market for busybox installer and install the latest version of it.

oh wow you still didn't get it to work? yeah narrow it down to either the pc or the phone.
his previous phone states that his old t989 connected completely fine to the laptop but after doing an exchange the new one is not detected. He has tried reinstalling and uninstalling the drivers, kies, and removing whatever is installed through usb with usbdeview.
so yeah, i'm stumped also. any of the mentioned method worked for me... soo good luck once again op! lol

Let me guess.. you used the darkside cache wipe. That's the only way to break CWM. Flash this.

Its TWRP 2.3.0.0. It should lock up when it says installation complete. When it does just hold down the power button and reset your phone and boot back into TWRP instead of CWM. FOR THE LAST TIME PEOPLE STOP USING WIPE SCRIPTS.

Im running a stock rom and kernel with a root using th exynos abuse app. I tried then flashing cwm using mobile odin. Now if I boot into recovery the initial GN2 screen with the model name flashes up before jumping all over the screen and going blank. I hold the power button down and it happens a second time before it boots normally on the third go.

I have used to flash zip many times
Copy flashable zip to sd card (int/ext)
Open mobile Odin
Select ota/update zip
Point to zip you have copied
Flash.

The T999L is the Superior Cousin T999 never was. It has an LTE antenna that the T999 is missing. Practically all the Custom Roms will work fine from one to the other.
If you want to flash custom Recovery then use Goo Manager and hit Install Custom Recovery Script.
Yea already tried goo manager but it said no recovery scripts were found for your device

You need to use ODIN to flash that Version. There's plenty of Tutorials on How to use ODIN.
I know how to use it, I tried it last night but everything fails.

Could be your Bootloader is locked.
Are you absolutely sure you are successfully Rooted ? Please use Root Checker App if in doubt.
When you tried to flash the Recovery via ODIN, what was the error ? Can you post a screenshot ?
With due respect "Everything Fails" doesn't really tell me squat.
I'll do that when i get back home.
Sent from my SGH-T999L using xda app-developers app
i tried it via odin again and it worked i have no idea what was wrong with it, thanks for finding those TWRP files for me.
Do a quick search before going any further. I have a T999L thread that answers most any question you may have.
