Hey guys, im new with this model.
A friend apply a OTA to this phone and now the phone dont boot, in odin the EMMC firm is [] (nothing in).
Odin cant load a rom to the phone now, im ****ed, not with PIT file. Stuck in setup conection or writting NAND followed by a huge fail.
Someone with a suggestion?
Thanks.
Reflash it with the same or older ROMs, better go for the older ones.
If you get this error then your PIT is damaged
<ID:0/009> There is no PIT partition.
Then you need to flash with the .pit file,
This should be done only if, it is that much essential.
1. Connect phone to PC and see it gets detected.
2. Click on the PIT button and browse for the .PIT file in the zip
3. Click on PDA and browse for the original firmware file (
4. Ensure that all three check boxes, i.e. Auto Re-boot, Re-Partition, F. Reset Time are selected (checked). Re-Partition shoul be selected only if u have selected PIT file
See This thread to download PIT file thanks to DMJoh
I tried with PIT, but Odin show me:
Writing NAND.
FAIL!
Without PIT odin stuck at "setup conection" message.
Downloading a old rom to try. But i think the emmc die.
Thanks.
1. Was USB Debugging enabled on your device?
2. You got the latest Samsung drivers installed on your pc?
3. Did you make sure Samsung kies is not running in the system tray?
4. Make sure any antivirus or firewalls are switched off.
1 . Phone dont boot.
2. Yeah i installed that stuff yesterday.
3.kies closed.
4.no antivirus on my pc

I am running srf 1.2 with genocide. It has never really run good, I have had alot of buggy issues. I want to go back to stock eco5 and start over. I have the galaxy s drivers installed and when I plug my phone into the computer it recognizes it and it says removable disk f. So I know my computer sees it because I can transfer files to and from my computer.
My problem is when I put my phone into download mode and connect it to odin, odin never sees it. Also the windows wizard finds new software and installs it only when I am in download mode, but it never helps the issuee that odin can't see my phone.
Anyone have any ideas?
Did you try taking out your battery and then putting it back in then going into download mode.... also try a different cable
Take out ur battery and sd card
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
yes i can get into download mode, then i plug in my phone and odin does not see it/no yellow square with a comm number in it.
i have to take my battery out to get out of download mode, so yes i have taken my battery out.
What is the point of taking your sd card out? Can you use odin with no sd card installed?
I don't think this matters but i am using an old laptop from 2002 it is a pentium 4 with xp on it.
Every time i plug the phone in the install wizard finds new hardware and installs something. That seems a little odd if i already have the drivers installed.
any one else have any more ideas?
I've never had any luck using a old computer...were u able to use odin in the past????....use the wiki and search for hardware reset and do it basically u press the small dot right underneath the camera but look it up for full details try it worked for me....aslo maybe try a new pc

Turn USB Debugging mode on. Plug phone into computer. Do not connect USB storage or charge yet. Your computer makes the connect noise. Now go to control panel>system>device manager and look in USB or Other for Samsung Android or unknown device. Click it and hit Update Drivers and choose from Windows Update. It will take a looooong time to find all the drivers. Reboot after just for insurance. Use that same USB port for Odin. Before that try all the ports. Odin on most computers only works on the port you used to install the drivers on.
If that still doesn't work grab Heimdall and I will walk you through that.
Ok so i tried a newer computer and let the windows wizard update all the drivers and yes it did take a really long time. But Odin apears to see my phone now!! the litttle box is yellow and it says comm 3.
So i have a few questions, I am kind of scared to press the start button because this is a fairly new phone and I don't want to brick it. I watched qbkings video on how to use odin to go back to stock. It seems pretty straight forward. I also downloaded the files provided in his links: The victory 8g pit file and the spd-d700-eco5-8bg rel file.
Do I need to be in usd debugging before I shut down and boot to download mode?
So when I hit start what happens if it hangs and doesn't move, what do i do?
If it says fail what do I do?
Will my phone be screwed if does not go through? Do i unplug the usb or take the battery out.
Will I have to reflash in cwm my custom rom?
Sorry for all the questions it is just I don't think my wife would be to happy if I told her I need a new phone.
Thanks

Its pretty straight forward once u press start don't touch ur phone its almost impossible to mess it up in odin I have never had it hang.....usb debugging doesn't matter cause ur in download mode....yes u will need to root again but with all the one click methods it should be easy...qbking makes great videos literally u can follow it step by step and u should be good hope u get it working..also it only takes about 1 to 2 mins in odin

So what happens if odin hangs up? What are the procedures for unhooking the phone? Is there a process that you are supposed to do?
If you're hung up on something like "Connecting to Service" before it starts pushing anything (boot.bin, sbl.bin etc...) then it should be safe to unplug.
If it's in the middle of flashing anything and you've forgot to uncheck re-partion, you're going to be screwed.
If you get a "phone-\ ! /-computer" icon, you can re-enter download mode and try again.
Odin takes an average of 3 minutes to flash. So give it time to complete.

I have a different cable I am using, it is not an expensive one but odin sees the phone. Does the cable have to be high quality or just work?

Thanks guys, the file I downloaded from qbkings video is the latest eco5 tar file. When it was done downloading it was a compressed rar file. I am guessing you just leave it alone and don't uncompress it, right? Just plug it into odin as a rar file.
Yea don't unzip it or mess with it place it in a spot u can find it like maybe ur desktop once u click on the "phone" tab should see the tar file click it ....make sure the f reset is uncheck and hit start
Welcome let us kno if u have any problems

If its a .rar file don't flash it with odin download winrar and look inside the rar file before you extract it..... if there is a .tar or. md5 file inside then yes you need to extract it and flash the tar or md5 through odin ...... if it has stuff like "system and metainf" then you flash that through clockworkmod....
Ok now I am confused again. In the video he just puts the rar file in the pda section in odin. I tried that and it has the extention tar. So odin sees it as a tar file.
I also extracted the rar file to see what was in it.
There is a boot.bin,cache.rfs,datafs.rfs,factoryfs.rfs,modem.bin,param.lfs,recovery.bin,sbl.bin and zimage.
So now I am so confused. Do I just drop the rar file in odin? Or do I use some file in the rar archive in odin? The rar archive does not have a tar file in it, so that can't work. When I select the rar file under the pda section of odin it seems like it converts it to a tar file.
So now what do I do?
[Q] odin says" Can't open the serial(COM) port." and fails to flash recovery.tar
hey,...
i am trying to root my tmobile galaxy S2 and i am in downloading mode...put recovery.tar file in PDA section and when i hit start...nothing happens and after a while i get failed notice and says " Can't open the serial(COM) port." what am i doing wrong.
Did you install the usb drivers first? If not here:
http://www.mediafire.com/?6onrjbyd46j4lhj
that could be the only reason i can think of that odin isn't detecting phone. Also try a different usb port on the computer, and if that doesn't work try a different cable.
uninstall Kies if u have ut because the drivers stick i did and now it works lol

I too was having "Can't open the Serial COM". Kies was interfering.
Go into Kies, Tools -> Preferences, unselect "Run Samsung Kies automatically when a device is connected", save the change, close out of Kies, and then restart ODIN 3. Try flashing now.
reinstall drivers with KIES. go to troubleshoot and then you should be good to go after. also check the cable too..

I had the same problem and I fixed it by exiting from Kies software. You might get this new error "Complete(Write) operation failed". Then all you should do is just pulling your battery out and restarting odin and phone. I disables the firewall too, but I don't think the problem was firewall. Anyway mine is working well and I did it.
Hi, I'm also having the same problem. The 'Charging paused...' message kept popping up so I tried to flash a different official rom via odin (I was on official ICS). Unfortunately the flash failed and now when I try to turn on the phone the 'Firmware upgrade encountered an isuue......' message comes up. I tried connenting to kies also but can not to do so. I have hope as i can get into download mode but can't flash a rom. I got halfway once then suddenly it failed again. Your help is much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Thank You.

The phone needs to be in download mode for Odin. And kies shouldn't be running on your PC. Go to task manager and kill any kies processes.
Download mode on the phone as I remember is power button and volume down.
?
If anyone is using Odin to flash 4.1.2, I found either Odin 3.04 or to be the only ones that worked for me.

Try different Odin versions perhaps. Uninstall Samsung drivers and install the newest kies again to reinstall them. Don't need to uninstall kies , just be sure all its processes are killed in your PC task manager.
There's nothing you can do until your phone and Odin are communicating. Try another cable, try another USB port on your computer. Last, try another computer.

Try everything I suggested. Otherwise, I'm out of ideas unfortunately.
I'm curious, what does your phone show as in device manager in pc when connected? Or is it not being seen at all?
And Y Duos? You know this is the Tmobile S2 section, right? ?
Lots of Y Duos bricked talk here as well as other links in this thread to review.

you dont need the pit file unless you have used a wrong pit file in the past
like I said - follow the instructions on my firmware thread
make sure you have samsung usb drivers installed
use rear usb ports if on pc
use the firmware thats on my thread and use a wipe pack (says wipe in filename)

if you dont use a wipe pack from my thread you need to wipe data/reset after flashing a firmware in stock recovery
also without a full explanation in understandable english I cant give you anymore support other than fully read the instructions on my firmware thread at the top of the dev section for 5360 and download and use a firmware with the word wipe in the filename

Hi guys,
Last night, as I was using some app on my phone, it froze and wouldn't respond to anything. So I held the power button and let it reboot... except it wouldn't. The screen when off, and came back to the Samsung logo screen, but it wouldn't go past that.
I've rooted this phone in the past, but I am currently unrooted and on the stock 4.4.3 ROM from sammobile. No crazy tricks or anything. The phone will go into download mode, but I ODIN flashing fails (I've tried 2 or 3 versions of ODIN), and it will go into Android system recovery <3e> (I get a red triangle over a dead Android) then it says things like
Failed to mount /efs
Failed to mount /system
Manual mode
Applying multi-CSC
Failed to mount /system (no such file or directory)
Failed to mount /cache.....
...there is a lot of this kind of stuff, and then it gives me the options to reboot, apply update from ADB, external storage, etc...none of which work. I've tried wiping partitions, factory resets, flashing with ADB...
In Download mode, when I try to flash the stock ROM using ODIN, it fails. Differently worded errors in different versions, but in short, it's failing to write.
It's been 24 painful hours of reading threads on XDA and loads of other sites, and trying to fix this. Finally, I think my problem (or combination of problems) might just be unique to me. My gut feeling is that the internal SD card is corrupted, and I need to re-partition it, but I'm not sure, and I don't know how...
Please help...
Try reinstall drivers, another port usb or another usb cable. First you can try reinstall drivers and change usb port.

Hi Dannchelu. I tried that already. I installed Kies and uninstalled to get the latest drivers, but I've also tried to remove the drivers and install them separately. Drivers seem to be fine.
Also tried 2 separate cables, although I think I'm getting a successful connection with ODIN...just not able to write to the internal partition...
For repartition search xda for pit file . You need a pit file for your phone model which you can flash with odin. You need to read very good steps to follow because you can hardbrick your phone.
Sorry for bad english.
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
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l3K9my9kAvI
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.
