Cant use Odin Or Flash anything

im on slim and trim and i can not get my sd to mount to my computer and yes ive used the tips on the tread , i even bought all the paid version of the apps
and i can not get mobile odin to flash anything , it will start the app but as soon as i click anything to flash it just force closes
i can not find a way to flash anything or leave this rom

Try clearing Mobile Odins cache/data and retry. If that doesn't work uninstall and reinstall Mobile Odin. Someone else had the same issue a few months ago and I believe reinstalling fixed it for them.

I couldn't tell from your post.
Have you tried using the standard Odin from the pc yet? Or even better yet, use one of Sfhub's one-click odins back to stock rooted. That way, you know the phone is properly wiped.

If you flashed the el26 on ics it will never boot go strait into flash new rom

As stated above use mobile odin to flash the el26+cwm tar.md5 and as soon as screen goes off hold power+volume up to boot into recovery. Wipe data/factory, wipe cache/dalvick, flash rom and gapps, and finally reboot.
Here is a link to el26+cwm: http://db.tt/0QJkleJR

ya ive tried all that my main problem is the rom it does not connect to any computer on any OS , i cant use odin or any one click method because the phone will not show up normal or in recover or download mode .
and mobile odin will not work either because all my zips are on my external sd and it will only read the internal sd and i cant push any files to the sd because it wont read ADB , and im on AOKP not slim and trim my bad

Not a good sign dude.
Go get a micro SD card reader, backup all the files to the pc and try reformatting the card (while it is inserted into the phone, not the pc) Maybe it is corrupted?

This sounds like a driver issue rather than ROM issue IMO...Try redownloading the drivers and switching out cables as well.

You should be using the full Samsung Driver suite from here and not Kies:
http://org.downloadcenter.samsung.c...342248/Sprint_d710_USB_Driver_v1_3_2360_0.exe
When you go into download mode on the phone, tell us exactly what the screen says there.
I also don't see if you've tried the other pc options:
try ALL your usb ports
try a different computer
try a different usb cable
Edit: Mainly all these should be tried from download mode because that's what needs to be working.

Can't boot into phone, seems no way to recover.

Hello I recently messed up my phone trying to get a custom rom onto my phone. (It is a l710 model)
I can boot into Clockwork Recovery and ODIN just fine, but I phone won't start up.
I used GS3 toolkit to root phone and it all worked fine, but then used clockwork to install custom rom.
I want to recover my phone but the only rom on the internal SD is the one that doesn't work.
I have a Nandroid backup I made using the galaxy s3 toolkit, its on the computer and sd card.
However I cannot restore using toolkit since it just waits for the phone to be on and in usb debugging mode to continue
Recovery says "Couldn't open directory" "No files found" when trying to restore backup.
I would try puting another rom on an sd card but it only browses internal storage (internal sd).
I went to mount external sd but didnt seem to help
Not sure if ODIN can do anything...
Don't know what else to try

I tried that but my phone just flashes samsung then the samsung galaxy s III and then turns off (or at least it appears to be off).
Is there a way to restore Nandroid backups with odin?

You can get adb/the toolkit to see the phone. Go into the device manager while your phone is plugged in and booted to recovery. You should see a device with a ! next to it should be your phone. If you manually install the driver the toolkit will see it. Have the toolkin boot you into download mode. If you have recovery Odin mode should be okay, u sure ur holdin "vol down,home,pwr"?

Thanks for your time.
I managed to get it working.
What I did was
1. using odin, reflash the insecure boot thing.
2. reinstall the rom through recovery
3. factory reset
and then is wasnt stuck in a boot loop anymore
after that I could access internal storeage sd.

I had this same issue. After using ODIN Rom would hang on boot animation. Would never boot all the way and I gave it close to 45 minutes. I also found the only way to resolve this issue was doing a factory reset after flashing through ODIN. Im using Vzw model so I guess it is happening cross platforms.

The download mode screen is supposed to stay froze like that. it doesnt have options. just boot to that screen, plug in your phone to pc and run this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2017470

Recent AT&T OTA Update Borked My Note 2

My AT&T i317 Note 2 is rooted, no custom ROM. This weekend AT&T pushed an update so I allowed it and it supposedly completed. The next time my phone rebooted and every reboot every time after the update push, the OS would immediately boot and start "Android upgrade..." again. I got sick of it and wiped my device from CWM Touch Recovery. After doing that, the phone no longer boots up like there's no OS loaded on the phone. It'll hang on the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 screen until I pull the battery. Also I'm unable to mount the external SD card via recovery. It just says "error mounting external SD". I've tried 3 SD cards and it won't mount any other them. The external sd card is where I have a ROM stored to load onto the phone. Samsung device drivers installed properly except for MTP drivers will not install whatsoever. No Kies installed. I need to somehow get an OS image on the devices internal memory. Odin detects the device properly in download mode while in download mode. Can I use Odin to sideload a ROM? Never used it to do anything else but root.

From what I understand you cannot do an OTA with a custom recovery, I could be wrong. If you wiped your phone you would not have an OS on your phone anymore. You should read up on how to Odin back to stock and start over. Good luck.

From what you just wrote it seems you wiped your recovery? How thats possible idk.
If you can still get into dl mode try using kies and do the em f/w reset.
Should work.

happened to me, but different state, i accidentally wipe my phone and the rom i was about to flash was corrupted or don't know what happen, if you have a custom recovery, then just push a rom to cwm by doing adb push, worked for me, i'll pass the file of ADB push if you want.

[Q] Phone stuck in boot loop, not recognized by Odin

Earlier I reflashed back to the stock rom for my Galaxy S III, and after I flashed a new install of cyanogen mod I can't get my phone out of the boot loop. I can still access download mode but Odin and my computer won't pick up on it, and I can still access Clockword Mod. Is there anything to do or am I out of luck because my computer doesnt recognize my phone

Do you have an ext SD card ? Place a ROM on the ext card.
Did you wipe cache in stock recovery after flashing back to stock ?

Try this, usually in a case like yours there is at least a 50% success rate.
Reboot the phone into recovery and do a "Factory Reset".
After doing that reboot the phone and see if it boots completely.
If the phone boots up completely, you will also be able to go into download mode.
You may want to shell out less than $5.00 including shipping for a USB JIG on eBay or other places.
With a JIG all you do is turn the phone off or remove your battery, wait 20 seconds - replace battery and plug the little JIG into the usb of the
phone then wait a 2-3 seconds more or less and like magic you will be in download mode ready to Odin flash(tar) a proper Touchwiz Jellybean
I747 4.1.2 stock rooted rom which are very much un-like all these CM10/AOSP/AOKP roms which are all just experimental.
Once you have flashed the stock rooted jellybean 4.1.2 TAR rom you will be able to flash any custom Touchwiz Jellybean
custom rom of your choice unless you still want to go ahead and flash another experimental CM/AOKP/ASOP rom.
Good luck!

Not to nit pick, but the latest stock Jelly Bean for the I747 is 4.1.1, not 4.1.2. Also, most of the stock rooted roms don't include custom recovery. They usually include the stock 3e recovery. To get a custom recovery, just dl Rom manager for cwm, or goo manager for twrp, and they can install a recovery for you that will have you ready to flash.

Which version of stock did you flash?

Yup.
Was just going to ask if the OP was successful in connecting the S3 with ODIN in the past.

What bootloader and modem are currently on your phone?
What ROM were you on and what were you flashing when the troubles started?
Since you can get into download mode, can you get into Recovery Mode? If you can, try putting CM11 on a MicroSd card and flash it from CWM.

My sgs2 is stuck in a boot loop, computers won't recognize the usb connection, and my sd card won't mount on philz touch 5 V6.0.3.7 My SD card is, however, recognizable if I plug it directly to my computer using an adapter.
so I rooted my phone using CWM. After that, my computer stopped recognizing my phone. I tried everything to fix it including factory resetting my phone, formatting cache, data, system, and sd card all under the CWM boot menu (hold volup+home+power). Soon afterwards, my phone got stuck in a boot loop. On startup, it hangs on the white "Samsung" logo. While trying to fix the issue, I noticed that my sd card won't mount.
I've tried this method, but it requires that I either have usb access or access to my phone. I've tried formatting the SD card in my computer. I've tried using different computers. I've tried using different usb cords. I've tried searching Google and these forums for a solution. i have uninstalled the samsung drivers countless times and rebooted with no success.
I need to figure out a way to flash the stock rom back to my phone. In order to do this, I need to get my usb to recognize or manage to have phil touch 5 v 6.0.3.7 mount the sd card. If I can do this, the rest is easy. Does anyone has any ideas on what can be done? please please assist!

Please help!!! I think i had a hard brick

I accidentally intall a GT-I9300 ROM into my SGH-I747 phone using TWRP. now, the phone is dead, compelte black, no response to any button. press Power key, Samsung Logo won't show up, even no Vibaration, it's exactly like no battery inside the phone. Can't go into the download mode or Recovery mode

You can try to get a USB Jig which will put your phone into Download mode immediately. They're like $2 so there's no harm in trying. If that doesnt work, proceed with finding a way to JTAG.

Thank you for the guide on how to unbrick.
I tried following the direction of going into download mode, then odin, but doesn't work.
I am currently using the SD card method and the phone loads up that way, but without the sd card it won't boot up in any mode.
Before all this, I had the original stock, then tried to flash this:
http://joyofandroid.com/install-andr...ung-galaxy-s3/
The android revolution. I'm guessing this was only for the international version, but I wasn't verifying that it wasn't for a at&t i747 phone.
Currently, the only way I can enter twrp recovery or download mode is by going into the main screen, accessing the app Root Rashr - Flash tool, go into the app, and pick either recovery or bootloader.
I tried going into recovery, format and restore the original, but when I remove the sd card, it wouldn't start up. I can't start the phone without the sd card in the phone.
Thank you for reading and for any help!
