Can anybody help me out really quick? I was trying to go to the latest MIUI from CM7 and of course whatever happened happened, now I have to ODIN back However, I'm trying to use ODIN3 v1.30 GT-P1000, victory_8G_100528.pit, Deodexed-Rooted-CWM-Busybox-EH06.tar, but the computer won't discover my phone while it's in download mode.
YES, I HAVE DRIVERS INSTALLED!
Hope you got about 5 cable, cuz that's what I go through everytime. Also I go to 2 computers and about 10 usb ports, then something will work.
What do you mean 5 cable? Man this used to be a breeze, I used to use my moms Windows and it was so simple, but her laptop decided to totally die out on me, so now I can't do anything.
Use the Odin3 v.1.85 .zip file in this thread, it will work.

Alright, is there any alternative I can use instead of ODIN? Because I've used 2 wires, and 3 USB Ports, reinstalled drivers, and nothings working.
You could try hemindal, or how ever you spell that. The odin alternative. It's in the development section somewhere.

Gah! I don't know how to use that. Anything else guys?
make sure you're not using a pit with that file you're flashing, too, i don't think u need it with that specific file. try your old cables this way first before u try another cable, and try the usb ports on the back of your computer. and one more thing, i'm pretty sure heimdall is just for apple.

maybe try uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers on your laptop, and try a new cord, the one that came with the epic was notoriously crappy.
edit: redownload them from sammy, just to be sure...
If you can get into a recovery you can try installin srf 1.2 and do a proper shutdown. This has usually fixed this issue for me

Have u tried booting into recovery?

Odin will only recognize your phone on 1 port, usually the first port you used that installed the drivers. Try every port. If you want to try Heimdall go into Development at the top in the stickies in the thread about How to fix a semi-bricked Epic. Post 2 is all about how to use Heimdall.

Ummm I think I know what your going through if I remember one of the cm7 builds my pc wouldn't recognize my phone either. I have a thick black berry cable and it always works and detects except for. That situation you need to pull sd card plug into sd adapter to plug into pc put a flashable of some rom since your on rfs I would say try the newest cm7 even if it doesn't boot maybe it will bring back your usb to pc connectivity. Since your on rfs don't flash srf1.2 cuz your phone won't boot you would have to do srf1.1

Try dialing ##8778# and putting the phone on pda or modem under the USB section.. I don't remember what one worked for me, I think it was modem. But mess with those settings. Hope it helps.

Whenever I have a problem it is always the cable, the port or the computer itself. I just try varying combinations until I get it to pick it up, if it is just the initial recognition I don't see how it can be anything else
I've had my system USB drivers corrupt before. Try getting drive sweeper and look up how to do a reinstall of those drivers (not the samsung drivers).
I tried odin3 v1.85 -worked for me, where earlier Odin v1.3 would not recognize the phone (Epic) while in download mode.
Can you get to CWM with 3-finger boot? May be easier to go that route...
Other thing I've run into when Odin doesn't want to work is you need reboots after each stage like this:
Uninstall drivers
Reboot
Install drivers
Reboot
Open Odin and then connect phone in download mode.
If I skip the reboots, many times it won't recognize phone.
I was using the pre rooted EL29 odin package and all of a sudden my phone randomly disconnected while going through the file recovery. It boots up to download mode but now my PC wont recognize it. It says "USB Not Recognized" and i've tried 4 cables and 2 computers. Any help?

Try a fresh install of Kies on your PC. If that doesn't work are you able to boot up into Recovery?

No it says that there was a firmware update error and to recconect to the computer with kies. I've had that error many times before and id just go into download mode and flash a stock tar in but this time Odin will not recognize it. Says not recognized
God damnit. Installed latest drivers from Kies and still not recognizeable. It boots into download mode so that means it's not bricked and should be hope for me. ugh

Honestly, that may be a brick. Pulling the cable while running Odin almost always ends up with that result.

This may sound weird, but try this.
Reboot your PC and load up Odin. Shut down your phone and pull the battery. While holding down the download mode buttons, put the battery back in. Then connect your cable once you boot into download mode.

Sorry to hear. If that has happened before, probably something wasn't right before. I've never had a spontaneous disconnect while using Odin and I flash a lot when testing the various releases.
If you can't get back into Odin D/L and have the phone be recognized, you might want to look at jtag repair from mobiletechvideos or having sprint expedite the warranty repair for you.

I understand, that is why I gave you suggestions if you could *not* get back in (I'm assuming you are going to try other things)
this has happen to be before, i had a faulty usb cable, so i switched and it worked. Have you tried using a different usb cable?

How about battery pull hold vol up and pwr for recovery mode while re-installing battery? then nan restore a backup . You did backup right?
This happened to me a couple days ago but I could get into recovery which fixed it. Make sure you have Odin open on both your computer and phone and THEN connect your phone to your computer. Also, reinstall Kies, all of your drivers, etc. on your computer. The weird part about what happened to my phone is that the phone would be detected while in recovery but not in Download mode.

But i cant boot into my ROM. i can only go into download mode
I was trying to install shfub's one-click FF02. My monitor went into sleep mode and when i awakened it my phone said that update encountered an issue. Please help!!!
Try again and see what it says.
my phone don't want to connect to the pc. so i can't retry flashing it.
Install the drivers and ODIN on another computer and see if you can Odin back to EL29 or EL26
Had this happen once and scared the <censored> out of me because I thought I was screwed - this was before we knew what was causing the bricks. Unplugged from USB, restarted PC, left phone in d/l mode and then plugged in *after* starting the one click package. (It didn't like doing before for some reason) Turns out it was the last step that did the trick.
i was going to try your method but the phone's battery died so it won't go into dl mod now.

If not showing up, are there any unknown devices in Device Manager?

odin is giving a no read message (succeed 0/failed1). the device is unkown. i've installed the drivers again and again, but device still not recognized. really stomped..
Little late to this but did you try a brand new USB cable? If you can get into download mode you should be able to resolve your issue using the above recommendations - re-install samsung drivers to pc, reboot pc then start Odin, then get phone into download mode before plugging in. Also try and charging the battery for at least a short time 30 mins or so. I have seen bad cables cause SO MANY problems. Don't assume that the cable you have been using is good get another one.

i will try what you suggested.
I was having same issue but I was coming from ics to gb to do a restore of ics rom. Well it didn't go well, so I had to odin. My Odin wouldn't find my phone and no matter what I thought I tried didn't work. I moved it to a differne t USB port and it worked. This may help it may not but it is worth a try.

Usually, a different port/cable does the trick,esle uninstal the drivers,reboot and install the drivers. That should get it done.

tried switching ports and cables but still unrecognized. it shows com on odin but half way thru install it shuts down saying device not recognized.
Can you copy all of the log in Odin OC and paste here? Just wondering if we're missing something, the phone is obviously connected.
The other thing I could suggest is download and try a different package and see if it behaves differently.
You might need to use traditional Odin with all of the good stuff checked.

I know this occurs to several users and to others phones such as SG2,III,Ace and many more. But so far, i still can't figure out how to solve it.
Installed Kies, Installed SGN2 kit 3.0.
When the phone is On, i can transfer any files through Kies, or just drag and drop. Even Odin detect my phone "port 3" in blue.
On the phone, i tickled USB debugging and hold down volume, menu+power to go in Flash mode. and from there i'm stuck. my computer can't detect the phone anymore.
Any help? please!

Its because he has toolkit and kies intalled at same time...it says in toolkit thread to have onr or other....the drivers dont mix
I had the same problem. Heres the solution. Uninstall Keis then reinstall. Then plug in your phone until all the drivers are installed. Make sure you use that same usb on your computer if you have more then one. Then try again by opening Odin first, then put phone in download mode and plug in the phone into the same usb as you did when installing the drivers. For some reason odin only works with the usb you plug your phone into, when you installed the drivers.

I Don't believe the Stock recovery lets flashing any zips. If the USB port is truly broken hardware wise, go for repair.
Perseus is correct. The only update.zip stock recovery will work with is for an OTA.
Without the usb port I'm afraid you are outta luck. Are you certain the port is bad? You can still charge right?

I don't know about that, might it be you don't have the correct drivers, can you verify the USB is getting power? And for getting a stock .zip to flash, can't you just take your sdcard into an adapter, place it on there, and place it back into your phone and flash from there? Or am I missing something and it's not that simple?
Have you tried another cable? Not a cheap replacement either, but a good quality data cable?

When you connect to a Windows PC, what do you see in Device Manager ?
When you reinstall drivers, just uninstalling the driver pkg won't work. You still have to uninstall or update drivers through device manager, otherwise it'll continue to use the ones originally installed.

From Windows, uninstall everything related to Samsung or KIES. Reboot the PC then try connecting the phone. Even if the Driver Wizard does not pop up, Manually go into Device manager, Right Click and go to the Driver Details of this unknown Device. Manually install the driver.
