I have a note 2 its not rooted one day my phone just stops working i change the battery but now the software is stuck on the samsung logo or when in charger stuck on a battery icon, i managed to get it in download mode but odin now doesnt recognize it.
im not sure if there is certain version of odin i should use with my note 2 n7100.
summing it up i want odin to recognize my phone so that i would flash kitkat on it.
ento bdan :cyclops:
Try more version of Odin and another USB port
Try Odin v3.09 https://mega.co.nz/#!UdRRyCAT!H4FyVxYynNWvXqRNmnpMGQRCP-dG3uykgP2pT4rh8Ek
I always using Odin v3.07 for my note 2 but it doesn't make any change.
First of all, does the pc recognise your device?
When you plug in your device, dies the pc make a sound?
Does it say something like installing drivers csc, serial, and many other things?
If one of this anwsers is yes; try this:
I tink there's a problem with your drivers.
1. Instal Samsung kies 3 when your note is on android 4.3 or higher, else just Kies
2. Open kies (3)
3. Search in the dropdown menus somewhere above the screen for "(re)install drivers" (I think it was in one of the last menus)
4. Reinstall the drivers
5. Close Samsung Kies
6. Open Odin
7. Put your Galaxy Note 2 in download mode and then connect to the pc
8. Choose in the tab "PDA" what you want to flash with Odin
9. Wait a while, a bleu box will appear with COM and some numbers. When this appears your device is recognised and you can start flashing
If this doesn't work This will help too, BUT YOU WILL LOSE ALL YOUR DATA.
1. Go to recovery mode by holding volume key up + home + power.
2. Choose factory reset. (It will wipe all your data)
3. After the factory reset, connect your phone to the pc and see if it works
4. If It still won't connect redo my first steps (those with Kies)
If it still doesn't work, I can't help you

OK guys so this is the issue, I'm trying to reset my buddies Samsung Galaxy S 2 on T-Mobile. He forgot his password and he asked me to help since I'm handy with cell phones. So I tried the easiest thing and tried to do a hard reset. Now I press and hold Volume Up and Down and Press and hold the Power button until I feel it vibrate and let go of the Power button while still holding Volume Up and Down and it will take me to where it says "# Manual Mode #" but when I scroll down and try to select "Wipe Data/Factory Reset" I can't select it. I tried pressing the Home button and the Power button to select it and nothing. I tried all the buttons and nothing. I also tried putting in Download Mode to try to reflash the firmware but when I connect it to the computer I don't here it connect and Odin doesn't recognize it not even in the Device Manager. I tried doing the same on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 and the computer and Odin recognize it just fine. So i'm stumped and need you guys help! Thanks in Advance....
Have you installed the proper USB driver and Kies for the phone on your computer? Make sure you are using the latest Odin.
Also, try flashing a different recovery system such as TWRP once you're able to get Odin working.
As long as you are able to get your phone to connect to Odin, you should be fine. You can even flash a stock ROM through Odin if all else fails.
Good luck!

If you can't get Odin to work, test it on another Galaxy S2 to see if the problem is with the computer. Just a tip.
I have been having the same problem. this t989 i have been working with does not show up on any laptop in the house, and they all have the kies drivers installed. it is "usb device not found." i have been considering wiping the usb storage and sending it straight back to factory settings. but without odin i am going to have to manually flash recovery and all that.. any ideas?? I hooked my phone up to both laptops in the house and it shows up instantly. i am definitely confused. and the worst of it, is ubuntu didnt even recognize the phone.
Do yo have any belkin router software install on your computer. If you have, uninstall it and try.

No luck, installed Kies and didn't recognize phone in Odin. What's weird is that it will not let me factory reset thru the 3 button combo in # manual mode #! I would try a different pc but don't have one atm.
i think i am going to try pointing the phone to googles oem driver
Windows 7
To install the Android USB driver on Windows 7 for the first time:
Connect your Android-powered device to your computer's USB port.
Right-click on Computer from your desktop or Windows Explorer, and select Manage.
Select Devices in the left pane.
Locate and expand Other device in the right pane.
Right-click the device name (such as Nexus S) and select Update Driver Software. This will launch the Hardware Update Wizard.
Select Browse my computer for driver software and click Next.
Click Browse and locate the USB driver folder. (The Google USB Driver is located in <sdk>\extras\google\usb_driver\.)
here is something interesting the phone i am working on the usb storage is not mounted on the phone. has anyone seen anything like this before?

Hello XDA!
So, idiot that I am, I decided today would be a great time to root my Galaxy S III (SGH-T999N version). It was running Jellybean 4.3, so it had fewer root options than other, older Jellybean versions, but I still found a root file on here. I put it into USB debugging mode, downloaded the driver, Odin, and the root file. I also backed the phone up on Kies, and have that on my PC., I did everything right, and... it failed. I tried again without doing anything to the phone (read: kept it in download mode), but it failed again with a different root file. So, I turned it off, sad that I wasn't able to root it, and I came upon the dreaded 'Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again' screen.
After hours of searching, I saw two different solutions: downloading the 4.3 OS from online, and using Odin to flash that to the phone, or using Kies to reformat the phone. I've been trying Kies, but Kies 3 isn't recognizing the phone, and won't allow me to restore or to reformat the phone. I'm still waiting on the download of Jellybean 4.3 to finish so that I can try that (Odin HAS been recognizing the phone). While I wait, I wanted to know if other users have had similar problems that they've solved, or where I've gone wrong, and what I can fix.
As for additional details:
- I CAN put the phone into Download mode. I CANNOT do a factory reset through Vol. Up+Home+Power
- The status screen with 'Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again' also has this information at the top:
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: SGH-T999N
CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: Yes (1 counts)
CURRENT BINARY: Custom
SYSTEM STATUS: Official
QUALCOMM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE
Warranty Bit: 0
BOOTLOADER AP SWAREV: 1
- The phone is carried by Metro-PCS
Thanks in advance!
Okay, turns out the downloaded Jellybean 4.3 OS did the trick. For future people who run into this issue:
1. Have Odin 3.07 or higher downloaded (Odds are that you have this due to your phone's current state).
2. Download a copy of the OS you want from here: samsung-updates.com/device/?id=SCH-I535 Go to the dropdown menu on the left-hand side, and select your phone. Don't know/remeber your phone's identifier? Open up the back, remove the battery, and there should be a white sticker with your phone's model at the top. WARNING! Unless you plan to pay, these downloads will take a while. Do this when you can have your computer on for 4+ hours.
3. Once the download is complete, unzip the file, and place it in a location that you can easily find with Odin.
4. Open Odin, and make sure that Auto Reboot and F. Reset time are the only options checked. If there are other options selected, uncheck them and proceed.
5. Click the "PDA" button, and select your copy of the Android OS from where it was stored. Assuming everything has gone correctly, a message should appear in the Odin status box along the lines of "Check MD5... Do not unplug the cable...". Wait for the message "Leave CS..." to appear before proceeding.
6. Once "Leave CS..." has appeared, put your phone into Download mode (Turn it off, then restart by holding down the Vol. Down, Home, and Power keys until you get a screen that has informed you that you are in download mode.). Then, plug your usb cable into your PC/Laptop, and then into the USB outlet on the phone.
7. Once Odin has noted that your phone is attached, you can press "Start", and assuming all steps have been followed correctly, the new OS should download, and your phone will reboot, fully functional. If you are lucky like me, it will even have kept all of your settings!
I've been online all day trying to find a way to restore my phone after my brother installed cyanogenmod on it. It's not showing on odin and I am getting really upset. Its a note 2 from koodo and I've only had it for two days. (I got it as a birthday gift and my bro thought that cyanogen would be "cool" Can someone give me a foolproof step by step guide on restoring my phone to default.

Hello 2 days ago my smartphone (n7100 @phantom_V13_N7100XXUFNI2_XEO with agni kernel) restarted many times for no reasons.
I went to Touch recovery and wiped cache , did not help at all.
Later my phone just restarted and couldn't work, stuck at samsung n7100 logo so i thought i have to flash it with odin.
I've pulled my laptop from old desk - because it has Xp installed, I installed all samsung usb drivers, odin and tried to flash some stock roms i've always recivd NAND WRITE START FAIL
so i borrowed from my friend USB cable from S3.
I downloaded from samfirmwares N7100XXUFNI2_N7100XEOFNI1_XEO so the latest for Poland, added package (md.5) at Ap option via odin 3.09 and it flashed but while selecting country and other options it restarted.
And here i'm stuck at Samsung Galaxy Note ][ Gt-n7100 all over again... I tried going into recovery (now i have stock recovery) wipe data/cache and pull of battery, next i puted battery in download mode and again odin 3.09 md.5 file N7100XXUFNI2_N7100XEOFNI1_XEO at Ap and problem goes again. Now it doesn't even go into android configuration just bootlop
And ideas?
If anyone is intrested i fixed it by myself! All thanks to xda, google and my friends USB cable.
For endless problems with nand write fail i used friends cable from his S3 and laptop with clean Xp sp3 + samsung usb drivers
Main reason for whole problem was... battery ! It has 4.05 V instead of 4.35 V so after i flash system via odin and unplug it from cable it destroys the "android setup files"
If You're not sure if its battery or not try this one.
1. Install usb drivers
2. Install odin ( 3.09 worked for me )
3. download firmware ( 4.4 XEO (Poland version ) worked for me.
4. go into phone twrp/normal recovery and wipe cache, data like u always do
5. put downloaded package in AP section, UNCHECK auto restart in options
6. plug phone & start flashing
7. after odin is finished, unplug the phone connect it to charger and restart it.
8. keep Yours finger crossed
9. voi'la system is working
10. buy yourself a nice original battery
