[Q] Odin 3- Stuck on Message

Hello.
I am trying to flash a rom using Odin, however I am stuck at this message all the time:
<ID:0/004> DO NOT TURN OFF TARGET!!
is there any reason why?
-Thank you

Disconnect and pull your battery. Put the battery back in. Start odin. Load your pit and pda files. Hold down both volume buttons and plug your usb cable back in. You should be back at "don't turn off target" but now you should have one of your boxes in odin filled in with com port info. Now push start you should be good to go.

I tried that before, but the order you gave me seem to have worked this time. Haha
Thank you!

Is this normal time to take or should i be worried..? and if its stuck what do i do?

Check your drivers and restart your computer is a good place to start

You have to quit ODIN. You aren't in download mode, or you haven't done everything in the correct steps. The page isn't very clear, so it's no problem
Here's what you have to do:
Turn your phone off.
Take out the battery, SIM card, External SD card
Put the battery back in.
Hold down both of the volume rockers.
THEN put in the USB cable (while ODIN is open)
Continue to hold down the volume rockers until your phone is recognized by ODIN

[Q] Odin3 one-click downloader just froze, any ideas?

Hello, I was going back to stock from 2.2, just like I used to do, opened the good old odin and hitted start. It beggan as usual, printed:
<ID:0/016> Added!!
<ID:0/016> Odin v.3 engine (ID:16)..
<ID:0/016> File analysis..
<ID:0/016> Set PIT file..
<ID:0/016> DO NOT TURN OFF TARGET!!
and it is being there for the last 5 minutes...
should i restart odin, the phone and try to do it all over again? or is it to late and I should be preparing myself to unbrick my phone?
thx in advance

As long as it's not on boot.bin or sbl.bin you SHOULD be "safe" to disconnect, reboot your computer and try again.

You seem fine. As long as it doesn't say that it's installing sbl.bin and boot.bin (not sure baout the 2nd). You can unplug and restart.
If it freezes at one the 2 above and you unplug, you phone will be bricked and the only way back will be a JTAG (force bootloaders in).
I suggest you use a different usb port/cable and even restart your computer.
EDIT: Damn you Studa

mmm I took out the phone and now i think it is soft bricked now, phone ! computer, though i just managed to put it back in download mode by holding the volume buttons and plugging in the cable, now it is back on stock
thanks guys, I was getting scared

Lol!
there was a part in that other statement about "if the button combo is not working"...

thread tag! you're it!

Code:
Odin v.3 engine (ID:24)..
File analysis..
Set PIT file..
DO NOT TURN OFF TARGET!!
This is exactly the state of my ODIN window when I was attempting to flash JF6 from the current Continuum 5 ROM.
Now, I have a phone that does nothing. The power button, volume buttom combo doesnt work it seems. Would a JIG help instead? Any opinions.
I am scared

If your phone exhibits no signs of life at all, Then you need to jtag unbrick your phone...
If you get the phone-!-computer thing on boot, you could just build/buy a jig and force it into download mode

Your phone could be soft bricked. I has a similar issue. You need to get the phone into download mode. If you can not do this via 3 button combo, you will need a jig. You can search xda for instructions on building your own jig (faster), or simply buy one. It may be cheaper to buy one.

Thanks,
The update is - I can do into download mode by pressing the volume down key and power key.
It gets into the yellow download mode, but ODIN3 doesn't work. It now gets stuck at "File Analysis"

Make sure the chord is good, and that is plugged into the back of the pc, not a front usb port. If it's already in the back go ahead and switch ports (still on the back) restart your computer.

Its a laptop am using, restarted 10 times. installed samsung usb drivers. tried all the ports. DO NOT TURN OFF TARGET on the phone and the laptop screen.
some times the laptop doesn't even recognise the USB device
All this had happened while flashing the stock jf6 rom

just wondering, are you doing it in the exact order of
1- put phone in download mode - via vol down/power
2- open odin on computer
3- connect usb cable to phone
4- Start button
and when you say sometimes your computer does no recognize your phone, does it show up in the device manager as an unrecognized device or just do nothing at all? If it does nothing at all half the time, go invest in a new usb cable.

i'm not sure how to fix it. but if you had continuum and want to go back to stock, i read somewhere that you can't use Odin3 (something about bootloaders).
i would try to use odin 1.7 to flash GR/Continuum rom.
(but check it with others cause i'm quite newbie)

my #g is not working after Odin3
i'm currently using the canadian rogers version of this phones i used odin3 cuz my phone blanked out on me my phone works now but i'm recieving any 3G network , any reasons as to y and how i can fix it thanx

He can use Odin one click, not the Odin with the button fix. FYI everytime you use Odin one click back to stock 2.1 you're flashing your bootloaders. The problem with the button fix is it only flashes the secondary bootloader leaving the primary bootloader untouched. This is only a problem if you've updated to the.GB bootloaders because you cannot mix Eclair/Froyo bootloader with a Gingerbread bootloader.

[Q] Odin One click question.

I'm trying to revert to stock jf6 with odin one click downloader from continuum 5 RC3, The phone was put in download mode with volume down+power combo and recognized fine, afer I clicked start it reads as follows:
<ID:0/005> Added!!
<ID:0/005> Odin v.3 engine (ID:5)..
<ID:0/005> File analysis..
<ID:0/005> Set PIT file..
<ID:0/005> DO NOT TURN OFF TARGET!!
And now it's stuck, (about 20 minutes as I'm writing)
Now the "DO NOT TURN OFF TARGET" frightens me, should I wait? I'm guessing it's not the safest thing to unplug it right now..
I've used odin before and never has it taken this long.
Help appreciated.

You have no choice but to unplug
Pull battery
Restart computer
Open odin
Get into dl mode
Try again

Did I Bricked My Galaxy Note 9

Dear All,
It's my first time converting from iPhones to Android. Happy to join this community to learn and share.
It was my first amateur experience flashing my Galaxy Note 9.
Basically, I flashed an incorrect file under BL at Odin after OEM Unlock. Phone was running Andriod 9 and it was a N960N (Korean Model)
I downloaded the BL file from another forum that was supposedly to be flashed inside TWRP.
I was stupid enough to change that zip file into a .tar file.
After a successful flash at BL, the phone seems to be bricked. It is unable to go into recovery or download mode.
Whenever I press power, the following message is prompted "KERNEL REV. CHECK FAIL DEVICE:3 BINARY: 2 (BOOT)
I was stupid. Please advise me. Could it be that the volume down button is faulty? I was having a hard time bringing it to download mode at the beginning. I used recovery mode to boot into download mode and then made this big mistake.
Any solution?
Thanks in advance.

you are flashing older kernal. try to download and install same version of the firmware. Your bootloader version is 3 and your are flashing bootloder version 2. go to sammobile and download stock latest firmware for your device. and flash it through odin. make sure you use odin version 3.13.

Thank you for taking time to read and comment on my thread. Issue now is that the phone is unable to go into recovery and download mode. Not sure if its the problem physically with the volume down button but the phone is not detected by the PC and unable to enter recovery or download mode.
It is not able to be detected by Odin for me to flash stock files..

Try Samsung Smart Switch on PC .

i saw that you went to download mode through recovery.
there is the regular way
to go into download mode...
hold vol down + bixby + power.

Using power + Bixby + vol down to enter download mode has never worked for me. Here's an alternative method:
Make sure the phone is off. Plug your cable into your computer, hold volume down + Bixby (do not touch the power button), and plug the other end of the cable in your phone while still holding the buttons.

The above combination (plug USB cable to PC, press and hold, vol down + bixby + power..... While still holding, plug in the USB cable to your phone) should actually work cause myself that's the only way i get my note 9 N960N into download mode. Try reinstalling Samsung drivers and possibly try changing the USB-C cable you're using.

vol down + bixby + power should work. you have to hold all three until the blue screen comes up.
it should not show the samsung splash screen.

start from fresh.
(make sure data cable is ok, try connecting any other phone to check the cable)
uninstall smartswitch and drivers then restart your pc.
again install latest version of smartswitch.
Run odin as administrator.
now plug one end of cable to pc.
press power+bixby+volume down key as soon as phone vibrates plugin data cable and release power key only. it should go in download mode. if not then try this.
plug cable in pc and phone. Then press power+volume down+bixby button as soon as phone vibrates release power key only. it should go in download mode.
