I was trying to ODIN the latest JB stock ROM to see if that would help with the RR/SOD/etc. The ODIN flash failed during the system partition and now ODIN/KIES/HEIMDALL won't even see the device in download mode. I've tried uninstalling w/ccleaner and reinstalling the USB drivers with and without KIES. I'm not sure if there's anything else I can do before giving up on this phone.
I'm thinking about reinstalling windows and seeing if the phone will be recognized. Anything else to try before going to that extreme?
Edit: To be more specific, I'm stuck on the triangle downloading mode (bad flash download mode). Apparently a USB jig may help. Any other ideas?

I hate to say it but it sounds like it might be a brick.
Are you getting the flashing blue light with a blank screen when you try to boot our are you getting a boot loop? Are you able to boot into Recovery?
no it says "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in kies & try again. " i cant boot into recovery, i can into dl mode. ima try a different comp.

If you're getting that message I can tell you its not going to work. It sounds like you were trying to flash the international version kernel for the SGSII rather than the Epic 4G Touch. When you try to flash the international version it will fail and gives you the error you're getting. Another unfortunate side-effect is that it ruins your USB (due to differences in the way the USB works). I've heard that some JTAG services can fix it but I haven't done it myself.
At this point you unfortunately are stuck with a brick. :-(
Sorry!
I might have misunderstood the other posts but I thought flashing the international version completely disabled the USB port. Yet OP seems that device is being picked up in Windows but not successfully installed.
OP, can you please confirm? Check Device Manager and look for a device with a yellow exclamation point or triangle (if Win). If you can see it here you may just need to reinstall the Samsung drivers and get it installed that way. At the worst you're not any further along than you were before...
Alternatively you could try updating the driver manually, search C:\Program Files\SAMSUNG to see if it picks up.
If you haven't done so already, uninstall Kies and download the full Samsung driver suite from here:
http://org.downloadcenter.samsung.c...342248/Sprint_d710_USB_Driver_v1_3_2360_0.exe
Install the driver and maybe we can help you from there. Or if it works, there ya go.
I just went through this...what happened on my end:
-computer froze up while i was doing stock odin repack
-went to boot up phone and that messaged flashed
what i did:
-flashed stock el26 kernel(if you can't get into odin but pull the battery and keep trying..thats what i did)
-flash a rom like you normally would
PROFIT!
So I rooted the device and for some reason recovery didn't work anymore. So I tried flashing a new one which didn't work because of Odin getting stuck at setup connection. Now I get a phone, a triangle and computer. It seems I can get the phone into download mode but it will still give me the same error message.
I have tried with 2 computers, different versions of odin as well as different cables. Samsung drivers have been installed on both computers, kies is not installed.
Any ideas how to unbrick?
Had wrong version of Odin. 4.42 needs to be used.
my galaxy note 2 phone got stuck in a boot loop and i wanted to flash a new stock rom for it
the problem is that no matter what i do odin won't be able to recognize my device even at download mode
i've tried reinstalling samsung usb drivers, running odin as admin, trying older versions of odin, trying different usb cables
nothing worked
before soft break the phone had a stock rom on it and was not rooted
USB DEBUGGING WAS NOT ENABLED
if i've missed anything or doing anything wrong please help
try different PC or Odin version, for me only 3.09 worked for the first time
try odin and download the right file for odin
Hello,
I have tried upgrading my SM-P600 via odin. I have used official 5.1.1 rom . I used default odin setting as usual, but during the upgrade windows showed unrecognized device message, and odin showed failed.
If I am trying to boot in any mode (even if I am plugging in charger) I am getting "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again." I have attached an image.
Can anyone help explaining how can I solve this (if this is possible). Also I would like to know what could cause issue like this? I have been flashing stuff to android devices many times, had boot loops and other messy things, but download mode have always worked.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance.
I was able to fix this by myself. I was able to boot into download mode. I am not sure why it have started working. I just left device to fully uncharge, then charged it and download mode was accessable.
I have flashed older rom which I had P600UEUCND2_P600XARCND2_XAR and now everything fine. I will download 5.1.1 once again and will try to flash it (I did fresh windows install, because I think last time it was windows issue).
Trying to flash different recoveries with different versions of Odin but it keeps getting stuck. Get stuck on setup connection and also stuck on sbl2. I have uninstalled and reinstalled kies. I have also deleted drivers and reinstall them. Nothing is working. Anyone know a good Odin version to use? Maybe that's the culprit
Twrp 3.0.1 is best. Used Odin 3.09. Had to go buy a new USB cord. Data capable.
