[Q] No driver when on Download Mode - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

When I plug the device in download mode or when I try to update via Kies and the device is sent to download mode, Device managers says there's no drivers (unknown device)
Running latest Kies on Windows 7 x86
Someone could give me a hand there?
Either post where the drivers should be (check in device manager while in download mode and check drivers details) or tell me what should I do.
Thanks!

google the latest USB driver for Samsung mobile phones. DL it, install it and Odin should see your phone afterwards

Isn't those the same as when installing Kies?

Kies is an app not a driver. Ideally, KIES should also install the driver but I'm guessing yours got corrupted in the process.

my galaxy tab p1000 not recognized in download mode when im using odin...
can anybody help me iwant to reflash my tab...
Did you try to flash it anyway? Just keep trying. Good idea to be fully charged too.

boss ill try it a couple times but cant read my device i want to reflash my tab is bricked....uhuhuh
many has done it.
As long as you can go to download mode, you are not bricked.
remember to have it charged for at least 4hrs.
Just connect it to Odin preferably at the same USB port as the one you used before.
Reboot it to download mode while data cable is connected, then try Odin.
Connecting in Download Mode
I had the same problem when i changed laptop. So on my new machine, the PC would not recognize my P1000 in the download mode. I was running win xp.
The problem was that it wasn't able to automatically locate the drivers. No wonder it wasn't. The drivers aren't built in to xp driver cache. So here is what you need to do:
Download Samsun Kies from samsung website. Do a search on google and you'll get to it.
Once downloaded, install Samsung Kies. No need to run it or anything. Once downloaded, plug that tab in download mode to USB of PC, and it will get detected and the drivers will get installed.
I still have KIES installed, but i never used it, i just installed it for the drivers.
Let me know if this helped.

Hi Dude,
Instead of installing Kies on your XP or windonws 7 for only driver, you can install driver using below guide.
Go to Google and search as Galaxy Tab Driver and go...Click Modaco Website & then Download.

Overcome's GB-stock-safe-v5 zip package contains USB drivers too, both 32bit and 64bit.
But the best is of course in linux, just a single line of definition in udev.
same here - SOLVED
I had the same problem (not recognized).. What I did to resolve the problem by:
1. Re-install Samsung USB drivers (got from here --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1881981)
2. Set the tab in DL mode and connect to the PC... wait for windows to install drivers.... DONE!
3. Startd Odin_v1.83.. CONNECTED!!! (seen by yellow COM#)
Hope this helps.. HIT THANKS PLS!

I have the latest samsung drivers installed, the phone is detected by Odin when it is on, but Odin doesn't detect it when the phone is in download mode?
If anyone can help or give any advice, thank you in advance.

From what I can remember, when you put the phone in download mode and connect it using usb, it tries to install another driver on your pc.. was that successfully installed?
or you can remove the samsung drivers and then reinstall them and try doing the whole process again.
I uninstalled and reinstalled the samsung driver, but odin still doesn't recognize the phone when connected by USB.
I remember multiple drivers being installed when I first connected the phone, but I'm not sure if any of them were when I connected the phone in download mode. How would I check the drivers for this or uninstall/reinstall them?

you could check in device manager of your windows for any devices for which drivers have not been installed..
should be just the drivers problem as odin recognizes when your phone is on
The only driver that seems to show up for when the phone is connected is "USB Mass Storage" device, which i uninstalled and reinstalled but odin and zadig of heimdall still don't detect as they should.
Do I have to have the USB settings of the phone in any particular mode?
Driver Source
Did you install drivers separately or along with Kies?
I had the same issue a few days back and this solved it:
1. Uninstalling all Samsung (and Google) USB drivers
2. Uninstall Kies
3. Download and run "uninstall kies" (search on the Forum/Google for UnistallKies.zip/ UninstallKies.exe)
4. Download and install latest Kies
5. Put phone in download mode AND THEN connect to PC.
See if that solves it.
Something I found....
If you have Kies on your computer, make sure it's not running in the background. Go to the Task Manager > Processes and remove it. From memory, there are two Kies apps running in the background.
Once they've stopped proceessing, try the download mode, Odin thing again.
Babe
Hmmm... not typing fast enough.... And yes, make sure your phone is in USB mode, USB debugging enabled and from memory?...... I think you have to have the non-market apps (Unknown Sources) box ticked

you have enabled usb debugging right?
Well I'm trying on another computer now, which did not have any of the drivers installed initially. I installed the latest samsung drivers WITHOUT Kies, and installed the drivers that come when the phone is connected in download mode.
Odin, both versions 1.85 and 1.3, does not detect the phone at all either on this other computer.
Oh gosh...nevermind, turns out I was in recovery mode and not download mode. Thank you for all your help though!

[Q] Odin doesn't detect my Galaxy Mini

I recently decided to flash a custom ROM on my Galaxy Mini. So i downloaded Kies, Odin 4.38, tass.ops and Clockworkmod, installed Kies, closed it, launched Odin, set everything, booted the device in download mode and when i connected it to my Laptop Odin simply didn't detect it. No yellow box, no alert, absolutely nothing.
The device already had Android 2.3.6 preinstalled, i didn't even touch the OS.
I already looked everywhere, but found no solution by myself.
Help would really be appreciated
Try uninstalling the Samsung usb driver from control panel then reinstalling it.
Edit: or use another cable and port.

When u installed kies, did u sync with ur mobile? Cause when u sync, it installs all the neccessary drivers. Or you could try downloading the drivers manually. Be sure to kill KIES when using odin cause they are sworn enemies
You didn't mention whether you installed mobile drivers or not!!! Try installing drivers once again. Then things will go on correctly.

If Still can't, Something wrong with your computer, like virus Ramnit in odin.exe
you can Run odin but odin can't do anything to detect even you installed your usb driver.
Just open can't read port and scan usb port.
To solved the problem try another PC.
But don't copy odin or usb.exe
to PC you want use.
Just One you can copy firmwares file zip or tar.md5

Usb debug doesn't matter in download mode.
Use original cable, usb on the back of the computer. If you're on laptop just try another usb.
Make sure you got samsung usb drivers installed. If you got kies installed, make sure you kill all process with kies in taskmanager before you open odin.
Put phone in download mode, connect to computer, open odin.
Otherwise you can check out the one-click-root in general section, then download rommanager to put cwm in your phone.
Good luck.
sometimes the samsung drivers cause problems.
Use THIS.
Good luck
[ This is only a hint and not a question! ]
I had the same problem with Windows 8.1 x64.
Different driver, Administator rights and much more didn't help.
With Windows 7 x64 odin work perfect. :good:

Odin and Samsung usb driver issues

So attempting to root I can not get my tmobile note 4 to be recognized by Odin when I enter downloading mode. I obviously tried installing samsung usb mobile driver, when I did a message window in Japanese with a red x appeared on my win 8.1 desktop. I tried different downloads of driver and even tried samsung site all give same error window. I then installed latest kies and it installed ok and recognized my note. I tried Odin and entered dl mode on note and still Odin doesn't recognize device. I uninstalled and reinstalled kies and driver but no luck. Is there a setting on my phone that's not allowing. I have usb Debug checked. When in dl mode it just says secure download enabled and then says entering udc. I am adb literate but new to odin. Any suggestions ...
Delete everything and start over. My laptop automatically downloads the drivers for me so not sure if your desktop will do the same.
If not, download drivers or just reinstall then and try it out and see if that works for you.
Well my fix was to go to a friend's house and use there pc. Tried everything and my win 8.1 did not like.
Removing or reinstalling Samsung drivers can be tricky. You did the right (easy) thing going to a different computer. Trying to use the same computer for an old and new Samsung device at the same time can easily cause your problem to happen. I found that you can't just switch between different versions of the drivers willy nilly. Perhaps the uninstaller routine doesn't work? Registry issue? Don't know.
If your win 8 pc can be rolled back to before you ever installed kies or a Samsung driver you might be able to get it to work using the correct (new) driver. That said, I'm still using the same driver I installed for my Note 2. Since it worked for the Note 4 and knowing what could happen, I left well enough alone!
