Hi, I have a Samsung Galaxy Young S6310N - a flash CWM went wrong and now the screen is totally blank, no activity externally.
However if i plug it into the PC then it will install the Samsung
CDMA
Composite usb driver
Modem etc
Odin can see a com port on 1st try just not the correct one, if i unplug and replug it picks up two, the correct one and one port next to it (i.e correct was 10 so Odin loads 10 and 11)
Followed loads of guides (run as admin, try XP, make sure kies not running in task manager) but Odin will not load any firmware and just hangs at setup connection (firmware from relaiable source)
Antivirus off, firewall off, loading ODIN before phone plugged in.
Tried the button combo's
Clean install of Win 7
Damn phone, what am I doing wrong?
Firmware file is a one package type, tried other varients of ODIN.
I must be missing something, phone is loading drivers in windows so i'm hoping all is not lost

When I try to flash a new ROM using the Mirage updater, after I connect the phone to the usb cable, Mirage show me the message " PDA Device not found". I have installed all samsung modem drivers, i have no firewall or antivirus program and still does not work to flash a new ROM. This behaviour appeared after I flashed the i780_DXHC4_Rev12 ROM. If anybody had this problem, please advice me what to do next. thanks
no experts here?
no this happen. Are you using XP?
First and only time when I succeded to flash the ROM (DXHC4 version), it was on win2k3 standard..Since then, I have tried to flash the ROM on various OS ( vista, xp, win2k3, win2k8..) with the same result each time: "PDA Device not found"...
Make sure to connect the phone to the USB cable when the phone is completely OFF. (take out battery and put it back in)
with the turned out phone connected to the cable, press DETECT,
and only then power up your phone.
I know some instructions tell you to go into bootloader mode, but I found that this is enough to successfully flash my device.
Make sure you run on XP and not on Vista.
Hope this helps.
thank you for your advice..unfortunately, it does not work also..after I press Detect and turn on the phone, Mirage send me the same message: "PDA Device not found"...if you can help me with other instructions, i would appreciate

Does your device succeed in connecting to the computer using ActiveSync?
Try disabling ActiveSync USB connection or altogether.
If you only want to install the PDA part try removing the USB modem drivers,
you don't need them for PDA only.
Try a different USB port maybe, Or maybe another cable.
I'm at a loss here...
Hi on this forum too!
You need to already have an active activesync relationship with the device.
I can make file transfer and PC sync with the phone.
I tried every USB port to flash the phone. But nothing works, only 'PDA Device not found' message. I think there is no solution for this problem...

u have to load the modem driver which is for i600... i had the same issue but as soon as u load the modem driver it works fine..
and u have to take out the batt and put back the batt then hold enter and Fn button while u press the power button.. and hold till the device is booted in emergency mode... then connect your USB cable..
nothing works...
Try to update your usb drivers...
gOOndu is right you must have the correct USB driver to recognize your phone. This is not the modem driver. You can test this by disabling Active sync USB connections and plugin your phone. If it has the right driver it should state hardware found (name of your device) and then hardware installed and ready for use. If you get a hardware not recognized then the driver is not correct.
Hope this helps you.
The problem is not with the OS drivers, which recognizes my hardware device.Also, I am able to make transfers from the device to the desktop and viceversa. The problem is with the Mirrage Updater, after I press Detect and plug in the device, it can not see my pda anymore ( PDA Device not found message). The only time when I was able to flash my device ( with Mirrage) was when I upgraded to DXHC4 version. Since then, Mirrage can not find my pda anymore, altough I use the same (operating) system as when I succesfully flashed DXHC4...

Hi guys,
I am trying to flash a ROM following the steps in the first post of http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=388067 . I tried on Windows XP, Vista, 7 without any positive results. I installed the Samsung i600 drivers, started mirage, loaded the bin file in the PDA section, pressed detect, started the device using Fn+Enter+ON key, but mirage kept saying "PDA device not found". I tried the above steps in different orders,no luck whatsoever. I have the following 2 questions:
1. booting the phone in DETECT mode means that you get the message "Emergency mode - You must push Detect BUtton of the download application befor you connect the usb port".
2. Do you have another STEP-BY-STEP guide on how to do this? Or is there another tool besides Mirage (which in my opinion is quite old)?
Thanks a million.
Which USB connection do you use? Front panel? Use one which is connected directly to the mainboard (on the back).
There is an i780 flashing guide available. I cannot find (or post) the direct link but it acknowledges this original post.
I spent several hours at the weekend trying to find a way of flashing my phone including installing virtual PC, etc, etc.
Eventually I found this to my relief and it worked for me in Win7:

PLS HELP!!!!!
I too am having real trouble in getting Mirage to detect my Phone in Emergency Mode!
Windows Mobile device center connects fine but that's all,
for that I used the Samsung_USB_Drive_MCCI_4.34_WHQL_v3.4
In device manager there are no 'unknown' hardware devices to update with
i600 drivers?
In device manager/Mobile devices it says Samsung MITs USB Sync
Could someone plz post i600 drivers that have been used successfully in ROM flashing the i780
Thanks
I am currently on a stock unrooted 4.1.2, SPH-L710. I have been attempting to root my Galaxy S3 using Odin3 v3.07 on Windows 7 using a variety of methods. I get the basic gist where you put the phone into download mode and then flash a *.tar or *.tar.md5 in the PDA field. It gets as far as "Firmware Update Start" and then "<some file name>" (like recovery.img--varies with the solution), but it never progresses past this point. Looking at some guides, it appears that there should be a "NAND write start!!" message which never appears, as well as a progress bar, which I never see. This leaves me stuck in download mode, but thankfully if I just unplug the USB cord Odin detects it as a failure. Following that, I am always able to boot back into Android, so it seems Odin is unable to touch anything at all.
I tried to use this toolkit (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1703488), but despite installing drivers, I could never get it to recognize my phone as being in USB debugging mode. This is after all drivers had installed correctly. I have also heard that there can be problems using usb cords other than the original, but I have made sure to use the OEM cord. Any ideas on what might be the problem?

You could try using a different USB cable. The OEM ones have been known to cause problems with Odin.
As far as USB debugging goes, I've had some Windows 7 computers that will see the phone with USB debugging disabled, and some won't unless I uncheck USB debugging.
QBking 77 has a nice video on rooting the S3 at: http://www.qbking77.com/how-to-root/root-samsung-galaxy-s-iii.html
Good luck!
Install drivers again. Plug your phone let it be recognized. Unplug the phone. Put it in download mode, plug it. Let the computer recognized it. Unplug. Open Odin and try again.
There's a method by Chainfire in Original Development, which works great.
Sent from my SPH-L710
So, I flashed a new kernel and I am unable to enter recovery. I can enter download mode just fine. The problem is that I have never had this phone plugged into a computer before because the charger was not working... I had hotwired an old broken phone to charge the battery so as not to damage this phone.
I'm pretty handy with a soldering iron and happened to have some junk phones laying around. Well, I managed to replace the charger port and it seems to be working fine. No celebration just yet...
The computer recognizes that I am plugging a device into it.... However, the drivers for the phone do not seem to be loading properly because it always shows up as some form of generic usb device.
I have tried using the samsung drivers. I reboot and all that. But it still says that it is just a usb hub device or something of that nature.
My question... What must I do to get Odin or Heimdall to recognize this device?
Is this impossible?
Uninstall old samsung drivers and uninstall Kies.
Reboot your PC
Download Odin 3.09 here, Kudo's to rwilco12 for mirror.
Download Samsung Drivers here v1.3.2360.0.exe, Kudo's again to rwilco12 for mirror, and Samsung for the drivers.
x Have your device waiting in Download Mode. ( Unplugged )
x Install the Samsung drivers ( No need for PC reboot, make sure your device is disconnected )
x Once driver installation finishes, you then open Odin, plug your device in. ( Optimal to use rear USB Ports )
xx Let PC read andinstall your device, wait for completion. ( Or Drivers have finished setting up )
x Make sure there's a blue box up top giving you a reading of [COM:##]
x Load in the .tar restore file into the " AP " Slot. ( Recommended to restore back to jelly bean GB27, Sprint )
xx Select Start, wait for it to finish.
xxx Once Box up top highlights Green with a reading of "PASS" unplug the device and exit odin.
It'll take time for the device to settle in so give it 5 minutes tops once your on Welcome Start screen.
Hi,
I tried to downgrade my i9000 and now it's only showing the soft brick sign.
I used to run CM11 with CWM before I decided to downgrade to stock.
I connected the USB cable then used Odin with the same PIT file that I initially used to install CWM. I guess so far so good as it recognizes something on the COM port associated with my USB entry and the background turns yellow.
I have picked the 3 stock files that match my model (GT-I9000M), went in downloading mode and hit Start.
Odin reports that successfully checks the files, then right after "SetupConnection" it ends with Success 0 / Failed 1.
I just do not get farther than that. There is no action in the square above the COM port and there is no other message. The phone remains in Downloading mode and there is no progress bar displayed. at any time.
Anybody can make any suggestion on how to fix it?
When do I know it's totally bricked?
Many thanks.
Until it still goes to downloading mode it is not bricked. This has happened to me once when i tried to go back to stock using odin and odin said it was connected but will say failure after setting up connection my problem was that Virtual box for ubuntu was preventing the phone from being fully connected.
The main problem is that maybe your usb connection in your computer might not be fully recognizing the phone
so try different usb port, open odin in administrator mode, and continue trying it until it works
usually when i use odin i keep the computer as still as possible until flashing has been done completely.
Also are you using the right files because that could be a problem.
Here is the video I originally used to teach me to odin back to stock but its for the samsung vibrant but the procedure is the same

Hope i helped
Thank you for your message. You were right, the problem came from USB, specifically from the driver and OS, I guess.
I failed to flash it on Win7 and Win10, as described above, then I told myself I will give it a try on a XP machine (32 bit). It worked like a charm, first attempt.
Regards.
Hopefully I can get some help here. I've tried everything. Specs: Galaxy Note 2 SPH-L900 Sprint phone
Flashed CF auto root a while back and a custom ROM. That's it. And even when the phone was working, the drivers just don't work right with this particular phone. So.... before you ask, here's what I know. I've tried everything listed here:
** IMPORTANT NOTE: KIES DOESN'T READ DEVICE AFTER FLASHING CUSTOM FIRMWARE VIA ODIN **
1. Use Windows 7, Install all windows updates.
2. Unplug all usb devices except mouse and keyboard, unplug device, Uninstall drivers, restart computer.
3. Install the correct drivers for the device from Samsung site "USB drivers for mobile phones v1.5.45.00"
4. (Device still unplugged) Open ODIN V3 1.85, restart into download mode (power, home, volume down, then volume up), PLUG IN. Still not recognizing, Take out battery, put in battery. Nothing? take out battery still plugged in, restart in download mode, put in battery. Tried everything.
5. Use a USB 2.0 port (not 3.0), try different ports in case a port is defective.
6. Change the cable to official samsung cable, try different cables in case one is inferior quality or defective,
7. Unplug device, Uninstall drivers, restart computer, install Kies or Kies 3 - kies NOT detecting phone at all. Keep connected. Under Tools, Reinstall Device Driver.
IMPORTANT NOTE: KIES DOES NOT RECOGNIZE DEVICES WITH CUSTOM FIRMWARE AFTER FLASHING!!!
8. REPEAT STEP 2, then run ODIN V3 1.85 with admin rights, PLUG IT IN, if it doesn't read it,
leave it plugged in, unplug the battery, put the battery back in, ODIN should read it. Try different versions of Odin to make sure.
9. Download Root Genius and see if that works.
I've also considered this, but my computer sees that I'm plugging something in, but it won't load the correct drivers.
I manually install and find the correct drivers in DEVICE MANAGER and it still malfunctions.
**10. Hardware: USB Connection on phone could be faulty. Try fixing/replacing the usb terminal on phone.
My phone went into a soft brick because superSU play store app kept telling me to update the SuperSU binary and when I clicked "update superSU binary" in the app, BOOT LOOP CITTY and i haven't fixed it since.
I'm so tired. Been at this for 3-4 days. Can I please get some help? Thanks
