I am sorry to jump in but I am currently running the latest nightly and Ineed to flash bootloaders and start with Froyo again. But my computer is not detecting my phone. I have installed the Android SDK and installed the drivers for Nexus S but of no avail. i am stuck and would appreciate your help.
The funny thing is that I can use the phone as USB device but freaking ODIN is not detecting it. My windows does not has any unrecognised device. I have installed the Nexus S drivers as well. Is it a problem with ODIN or my phone or windows itself? I am running Windows 7 Enterprise 64 Bit edition.
I have tried;
Uninstalled Samsung Drivers / Restarted / Reinstalled
Swapped 2 different cords
Tried every available port on my PC
Restarted, pulled PC power cable, let it rest for a few seconds and plugged it back in
Uninstalled every USB Root Hub device and restarted so Windows could reinstall all of it
Tried Heimdall as well
I need my ODIN flashing back
Thanks in advance!
Look that Kies isn´t running in the Background.
It is not - I can confirm.

check with usb debugging activation on your phone!
Checked that too
Loosing hope on this -Am I going to be stuck with corrupt bootloaders and other issues?
Someone ... anyone?

Kies has an option to install the driver again check under tools then install driver maybe that will help

But Kies does not recognize the phone So it does not even try to install the drivers.
I am stuck. Without ODIN recognizing my phone, i can not flash anything on it or revert to stock. Would be great to know if there is anything I can do from Recovery Mode. The phone goes to Download mode as well but what's the use.
well this is a long shot but you could try and manually install it by going into where you installed kies in my case its C:\Program Files\Samsung\USB Drivers\24_flashusbdriver choose the X64 folder seeing as you are on a 64bit system and right click FlashUSB_x64.inf and install

Nope. It didnt help either.
F***! This is frustrating.
well you could always try it on a windows xp machine maybe try another usb cable you never know
i was having this problem too till i sent it back to samsung service centre where they changed the whole board.
my computer totally couldn't recognize my sms on either odin or usb. it won't restart when not connected to charging/power.
i've got a warranty claim and now it back and rooted with gingerbread 2.3.3 jvb install.
samsung service centre is the best. with service like that i'll stay with samsung all the way.
hope my experience help.

an obvious question, but since no one has asked it yet, are you in the download mode ? You have to be in download mode for Odin to detect.

That is not true. My Samsung Galaxy S is recognised by Odin even when on in normal mode.

Yeah, I ended up doing the exact same thing. Something must have gone weird, because the phone would still charge, but wouldn't be recognized by anything.
It may well be damage to usb on phone, remove the inner cover check for cracks in soldering, and check pounds aren't out of shape
If they are gently straighten with pin

Just Remove the battery and wait for 10 seconds......
insert battery and start in download mode...
tadaaaa.....it's done....
Did you install the drivers for Hemidall? After I did this my phone was not recognize by Odin... but I'm guessing If I roll back or update the drivers some how in Device Manager then Odin would be happy again.

Problem: Attemping to flash to eclair(stock) using Odin version/s 1.81-1.82. Have not had any luck. The phone is rooted. But running bone stock os/rom. I suspect while using an app to kill the boot/shutdown sounds may have some how corrupted this cappy enough to block it from flashing back to stock.
Question: Are there any specific sites or suggestions that would walk me through ways to flash my Captivate back to Eclair?
Thanks in advance for any and all suggestions!

Are you connecting the phone to a usb hob thats on the Mother board(rear one if on desktop), running ODIN as adming (if on vista or 7). You putting your phone in download mode and connecting after odin is open? Lastly you have drivers for your phone?
Edit: Mobiletechvideos usually has very good video guides.
U need to right click the Odin and run as administrator 1st, then connect ur phone in download mode to the computer. Be sure to connect the usb end of the cable to a usb port in the back of the computer or first port on laptop. Be sure that before u begin you have the correct drivers installed and then you may want to reboot your computer... then begin the Odining process.
Hope that helps.
edit: prbassplayer, I guess great minds do think alike... But you type faster.
Tried for awhile that night without success. The next morning after restarting my windows xp system it worked. All required software was installed. The pc had been restarted numerous times? Greatful for the suggestions. Still confused as to what the issue was however. Very perplexing indeed.

Hi All,
here is the story, I was on MilkyS GB rom, made a ndriod backup, then flashed dark knight 2.1 then wiped , flashed DK3 w/ Semaphone. Today, I was going to flash stock JVU via Odin but while I was charging up the phone I already noticed Windows was showing error saying something like ' USB device is malfunction cannot install' , so I thought that must be a DK3 bug for not able to access to the SD card, so I did not care.
Went ahead and tried to flash Odin, sure enough Odin did not detect my phone, so did Google and found 'Gnex USB drivers' which by the way took forever to install, while waiting , I thought I might as well just go back to MilkyS GB by using the backup I have done before, so I went in recovery tried to restore, but not successful, so I went ahead and choose reboot....now I am stuck at the boot screen, pull battery, I can go into download mode , however, Odin cannot detect the phone so I still can NOT flash anything.... (just now tried all kinds of drivers I can find, CM7 USB driver, Google usb_driver_r04-windows, even installed the drivers within Andriod SDK, still can't detect the phone..)
Any suggestions ? am I out of luck ? by the way, tried installing drivers in 3 x different laptops and with different USB port on them...
Have you tried a different USB cable? Also ensure KIES is not running & that there are no KIES processes running in the background. Make sure no other usb devices connected to the pc. I've also heard Windows 7 64bit can be the issue sometime but not sure so maybe try a windows xp pc.
Also try disabling any antivirus/firewall on the pc. I had this is issue but for me restarting pc and using a different USB port did the trick.
Should you figure out the USB issue you can't actually restore a Gingerbread backup from ICS.
You will need to get a stock rom (darky resurection should also work) and flash with ODIN. You will need a 3 file stock rom (pda,phone,csc) & 512 pit file.
From here you will need to select all files into relevant places, check repartion and run ODIN. Sometimes I've also needed to flash a second time with just the 3 files and repartition unchecked.

thanks scubadude for your reply. Yes, tried 2 x cables, 3 x laptops and all the USB ports on the laptops, now trying on a clean XP , AV disabled PC still no go.
I know the Odin 3 file process and so on and I kind of know that I can't flash GB on top of ICS that is why I attempt to flash stock in Odin but I guess I was just impatient to wait for the stupid Samsung driver to be installed and made a stupid mistake...

I guess you have tried going back in recovery mode using the 3-button combo but that is also not working?
Odin isn't recognizing your phone but does windows recognize it? If you uninstall all samsung drivers and then try to connect your phone to PC does it ask for installation of drivers? .. if it doesn't that means your phone's usb could have become faulty.. (just speculating)
Or you can try to use Heimdall instead of Odin.. maybe that'll work for you..

Try using Heimdall for mac or linux. It does the same as Odin with no drivers.
Also try cleaning the contacts in usb port on the phone with a small brush(this worked for me when I had similar problems).

thanks tried Heimdall Frontend suite 1.3.1 , also tried Zadig.exe included in the package, the computer still does not detect the phone in download mode.
btw , I have also already use Android SDK to install the Google USB driver....see attached.
Had a similar situation.
Eventually used EZbase's "Odin" version and it worked using the drivers he linked to.

Try using Heimdall for linux. The windows version depends on drivers while the linux does not need drivers.
Also try turning USB-debugging on. Some people report that this is needed for download mode, though I don't see how this can make a difference as the OS is not loaded when using download mode.
If this doesn't work I think you have a hardware problem.
EDIT: Don't use WM-ware etc for the above. I think an Ubuntu live CD will be fine.

I understand but sometimes you can't connect whit PC but whit Odin its doing. (Sometimes)
Start Odin with Windows and try it.
Very important - your phone must bee on the DOWNLOAD MODE. If its not doing your USB Connector on the phone its defect.
I have same problem having 6 months ago.

Are your drivers installed? Install those, connect the phone so the pc to recognize the phone and begin install of drivers for it. When you plug in the cable be sure to be in download mode, you need the mtp driver to be installed. Remove the fone when it finishes.
After you install the drivers open odin add the files and only after plugin the phone in download mode. It should be ok then.

It's not driver problem. I've flashed with odin and heimdall a lotof times. The phone failed to recognized time ago but when rebooting aleays solved thw problem, not this time.i get error code 43. If i force driver install i get error code 10 in device manager
Try to remove the drivers first. After that close the pc, remove the power cord and hit the on button. It will discharhe any charge left in your sistem (it will reset your usbs). Plugin the cord, open the pc normaly and then reinstall the drivers.
Put the phone in dld mode and see what happens.
Hope u resolve ur problem this way.

I've tried everything, I just can't get odin to recognize my phone. I use a Samsung Galaxy S GT-I9000 and the odin version is Odin3 v3.07, although I have tried using an older version of odin.
My phone gets detected normally (when not in download mode), and even in download mode the computer does make the sound indicating that it is connected.
This time, I opened odin without putting my phone in download mode and it showed a blue box, indicating that it detected my device, however I think being in download mode is a necessity for rooting. Help me out!
Oh and if its important, I use windows 8, I don't have samsung kies installed, I have the stock USB cable and I have tried it out without another cable.
AH! The shame! My first post and there is a typo in the title! T-T
Hey,
Have you tried manually installing the drivers using this?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2038555
The Samsung USB drivers (which lets the computer properly recognise the phone) apparently don't play too nicely with Windows 8.
Try install that and see if Odin recognises your phone

just flash this in stock recovery you only need odin for custom recovery

Kill all process with kies in task manager. Use original cable, try to change usb port.
Put phone in download, open odin, connect phone.
Otherwise I don't know. Try another computer.
First connect your phone to pc.then open odin 3.07
