I have a Galaxy Note 8 that I would like to root.
I have downloaded and installed the latest Samsung drivers on my PC, and can connect the tablet via USB to my computer with no problem. I can browse the tablet via the computer etc. (Windows 7)
Problem: I fire up Odin mode on my tablet and put it into download mode. (I have USB debugging enabled.)
I fire up Odin 3.07 on my PC and plug in the USB cable.
I have no connection between the tablet and the PC under any conditions when the tablet is in Odin download mode.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

Tried Starting Odin as Administrator?
You may need to install the samsung usb drivers. There is a difference between connecting your tablet to your computer and windows reading it as an MTP device, and connecting it in download mode which the computer sees differently and will need drivers for it. You can find them on the Samsung support site in the download section.

hi bros,
I have a question, I have a Galaxy T989 the problem is that it is connected in USB mode to my pc, and try installing drivers, installing kies, I tried it on another pc and nothing the same with another cable and nothing! not work, the phone is in debugging mode, just connect it to the pc and load only pass not there, help!
Im having problems trying to transfer files from my pc to my tab. my pc wont recognise the tab as an MTP device, but in the usb setting it is checked to connect as MTP. my cable is fine and the usb on my computer is fine, the pc does "see" the tab because it comes up as a connected camera but refuses to connect as media device. anyone know what i should do ?
In lieu of a better answer: Kies air. It sucks but it works and I am unaware of other alternatives.

Are you using a custom ROM? I read that it has been a problem in some builds but is now fixed, so if you are using a CM11 ROM make sure you update it.

In some cases it helps if you reinstall the Samsung USB Drivers
I have almost same problem:
Samsung galaxy tab 3 lite rooted, supersu installed.
Before root, my pc recognize tab, after root, does not recognize tab.
Uninstall and re-install Kies and USB drivers with no result.
Can someone help me with a suggestion?

Have you checked The USB debugging mode under dev settings?
What is needed to connect the Tab Pro 12.2 to Windows 7 via USB? When I attempt to connect Windows doesn't recognize that a device is plugged in at all. I can't find a setting anywhere on the tablet to enable USB connection.
Things to know:
I've installed Kies 3 on the computer but it doesn't recognize the tablet being plugged in either.
I've installed the Samsung USB driver.
I've successfully connected the Tab Pro when in download mode since I was able to root it.
USB debugging is turned on (also tried it with debugging turned off).
Android 4.4.2, build number KOT49H.T900UEUAND4 (rooted)
What am I missing?
Unplug the tablet from your pc. In Kies 3, under Tools, reinstall usb drivers. Reboot pc. Connect the tablet to usb. See if that gets it working.

Thanks for the suggestion. Still no joy. It's like there's no MTP driver or something. When I plug it in to the USB port the tablet recognizes it as it "dings" and tries to charge (it can't because the USB port doesn't supply enough current). However, the pc never makes a sound and doesn't recognize any thing's been plugged in.
Is there some setting I'm missing on the tablet?

I doubt it's the tablet. Probably a driver issue with windows. Try a different cable (usb 2.0 or 3.0) and usb port on the pc

I have had this issue with my Galaxy TabPro 8.4 (similar device). Why don't you try reinstalling the software and drivers on your computer. Also, have you tried a different USB port? These simple techniques have solved the problem. Seems like a problem with your drivers.
Restart your device as well. A simple restart can clear issues.
im having the exact same issues, reinstalled windows, now i cant get my tab to connect ... tried different ports I finally got it to show up as an MTP device but computer doesnt like that one bit.
worked for me (Samsung tab pro)
had the same problem, all i did was shut down my tablet and start it back up (not restart option but actually shut down one) then it popped back up on my laptop as connected.
i think it has to do with the batt. not being able to charge on the laptop and it just over looks it........braking it down Barney style .
I just got a AT&T note 5 2nd hand and it is using N920AUCU1AOGG firmware.
When I plug it to my computer, my computer didnt recognized it even I had installed SmartSwitch or Kies.
Similar Odin could not recognize it
When I plug my Note 5 from Verizon, my computer have no problem with it.
I tried on 2 computer (Windows 10 / Windows 7) with same results. You can see the F.W version from my attachments
Can someone advise?
I am having some issues with rooting the tablet. it is not showing up in Odin when in Download mode. I want to root and install TWRP.
I am not an odin expert, but I never had problems establishing a connection between odin and the tablet. What I always do is keep the USB cable disconnected while I launch odin. Then drop the tablet into the download mode, and only after that plug the USB cable. This always worked for me. Make sure you plug the USB cable directly into your Laptop/Desktop instead of an external hub if you have one, I had weird issues with those sometimes. Click on your device here and follow the instructions:
