Hello, XDA.
I am currently using an old Samsung Galaxy Note 3 (SM-N900T), bootloader is locked and it is unrooted. I have the intent of using Heimdall to flash TWRP with my Acer Chromebook 15, running ChromeOS 75. The Samsung Device is recognized perfectly in normal mode, but once it is put in Download/Odin mode it is no longer recognized by ChromeOS, meaning Heimdall cannot recognize it either. Both ports on the Chromebook appear to be USB 3.0, judging by the blue color. Are there any drivers or programs I can use to allow my Chromebook to recognize the Note 3 when it is in Download/Odin Mode?
I only know of doing the flashes by using Odin 3.11 on windows computers, you may have to find a windows pc to do it unless someone else has an Idea (my note 3 is running lineageos) I used odin 3.11 on windows 7 and had the zip from lineageos's website (nightly ofc) i dont remember the root tool but i do remember i had to root it to flash twrp and lineageos, other than the information I have just given I don't remember much else

Hi,
after getting my Note 2 LTE back from repair (they changed the mainboard, speaker, vibrator and USB port) I'm now trying to root it using Odin 1.85 (have tried 3.07 too) and CF Auto Root. The problem is that neither the phone nor the PC detects any USB connection at all while in download mode, ie. it doesn't even pop up with a driver request or anything. Device manager doesn't show any change in devices either. In this case the old "nothing happens" truly applies...
I've tried with going into download mode with voldown+home+power and with 'adb reboot download', with the only difference between the two is that when using ADB it doesn't display the white text in the upper left corner.
The PC runs Windows 7 (I used this same machine to root the phone when I got it back in November, and I haven't changed anything on it, other than the usual software updates). I've tried two cables that both work when connecting the phone while booted normally. The one I'm using now worked fine to transfer about 1 GB of pictures back to the memory card.
It's running the latest 4.1.2 (JZO54K.N7105XXDMC3) and is fully charged.
EDIT: I've now tried with uninstalling Kies and the Samsung USB drivers completely but the problem remains.
Thanks,
Magnus
Note 2 Android 4.1.2 download mode connect to PC
I have the same problem. Although your post is old, yet unanswered, I'm not sure if im posting correctly, or must create a new thread.
I connected my Note 2 to PC-USB during download mode. Also no action, but device manager showed a yellow triangle, while Odin running and pointing to a file for rooting.
I read in a post once that upgrading to Android V4.1.2 prevents rooting. How can I degrade it?
Phone connects successfully in normal mode.
Samsung Galaxy Note 2, SGH-T889 of T-Mobile (locked to carrier). Android V4.1.2
Tried on 2 PCs with Windows 8.
Also tried turning phone on to Download Mode after plugging it to USB.
I tried unlocking it, the unlocking software required phone to be rooted first!
My Samsung Galaxy W has a lot of problems currently and I want to flash back to stock ROM.
1. I can only boot into download mode
2. I cannot boot into recovery mode
3. I cannot boot up the phone
4. Odin cannot detect my phone while in download mode
5. Windows also states that "USB Device not recognized"
Any solutions? I can only boot into download mode on my phone but my pc wouldn't detect it.
1. Tried reinstalling drivers from multiple sources
2. Tried rebooting my phone
3. Tired rebooting my pc
4. Tried all available USB ports on my pc
5. Tried the other 5 phones I have and it worked perfectly fine
Use Odin and flash a recovery.

If You're running Windows 8 and above, it does not support the Samsung USB protocol, with no workaround as of now.
So I recently decided to try to flash the stock firmware onto my galaxy tab SM-T700 again, however, since it didn't boot I flashed TWRP onto it again and tried to push a custom rom onto the device.
The tablet however shows up as an MTP USB device in the device manager instead of an android device like it used to. My OnePlus 2 works perfectly fine in recovery, so it can't be those drivers.
Does anyone recognize this problem? Help would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance, Rintse.
Reinstall the adb drivers while in recovery mode.
Right click, update driver.
Hi, I know that this thread isn't about Galaxy Tab 3 but I need Odin for that tablet. So, I'm using Linux Mint operating system now and Odin isn't released for Linux. I tried to use Jodin 3 but when it creates .pit file and restarts my device I get back into Download Mode but Jodin doesn't recgonize my device anymore. Tried Heimdall but I don't know how to use it. So, I tried VirtualBox. I Installed Windows XP there, installed Samsung USB Drivers and got others thing I need. Booted my tablet into download mode, connected it to the PC and Odin recgonized it but, when I wanted to flash TWRP Recovery I chosed it into AP and click start it shows me bluescreen and restarts my virtual machine. I don't know what to do...
Fixed it myself, just installed Oracle VirtualBox Expansion Pack and in the USB settings I chosed "USB 2.0 (ECHI) Controller".
I had the same question...answered now lol
I want to upgrade my tablet with Lineage OS 14.1, so first i have to install a recovery.
My tab sm-t900 is original with android 5.1 on it and it has become slow.
When the tab is turned on, it's recognised by my windows 10 pc and odin. When the tab is in download mode, it's not recognised by my pc, so also not in odin.
I use the original Samsung cable and tried other original ones. I tried uninstalling and re-installing kies. I installed the latest windows 10 drivers for the tab, which i downloaded from the samsung page. I have enabled usb debugging in developers options.
I tried it on a windows 8.1 laptop and on a windows 7 pc with all the suggestions i described, but i can't get it to be recognised when in download mode.
I noticed the blue line 'secure download : enabled' in download mode and wondered if that may be an issue?
I have searched for a long time by now and don't know what to do anymore. Does anybody have a suggestion? Am i missing something?
It seems like my problem is the locked bootloader, but i can't figure out how to unlock it. In developers options there is no option to uncheck OEM.
How can i see if i have the lollipop bootloader?
