Not really clear but if you can get into download mode and Odin recognizes phone then flash new firmware. But I suspect you are saying Odin isn't detecting the device.

Buy usb jig on ebay, put it in downlaod mode and reflash some stock kernel. It should do the trick.

if you were flashing an ics based rom you need nexus s driver's on the PC for Odin to see your phone as the stock Samsung one is no use now.

I`m in trouble
Hi guys.
I can`t make my windows 7 recognize the SGS...I`ve already tried the USB_samsung drivers, even for Nexus...but the error 43 always appears.
I can turn on the phone in CWM but anything can be done, always data problems...so I only can put it on Download Mode, but I can`t download anything, the Odin doesn`t have a Comm Port communication.
I was restoring for Factory Default when it happens...I was using the MyUltimate 1.3...after I flashed the ICS RC 4.2...and now anything works.
Sorry about my English...I`m Brazilian.
I really appreciate any kind of help.
picture of my problem
I forgot to post a picture of the CWM messages...it`s attached...thanks a lot

hi.i m having a serious problem.i have updated my galaxy s to xxxjw4 and root it.it was working so nice untill i installed another update for lag fix MCR scripts.after that super user stoped working.i try to reset even wipe up cache.bt it is not working.now pc.s are not recognizing set.error unknown device.when i try to install cm9 or wipe cache.it gave these errors
E:format volume:rfs format failed on/dev/block/st111,st110,nmcblokop2
E:unknown volume for path data,cache,log
E:cant mount/cache/recovery/comand
clockwork mod recovery version is 3.0.0.5
plz help me.what i do?waiting for ur reply
This worked for me
This happened to me recently.
The way out was as follows (and gives ICS on top):
1) boot in download mode
2) use Odin and flash Semaphore kernel
3) reboot in recovery mode
4) wipe cache, dalvik cache
5) install CM9 latest nightly build
If you want to stay with Gingerbread, you may want to try the same with CF-root as a kernel and xxxjw4.

This would be due to your system being converted to EXT 4 format when you tried doing lag fix, the only way is to undo lag fix and back to rfs, for your internal SD card to be recognized again
you can try formating it using this, if possible http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26496507&postcount=4439
as for you other connection problem, the options are http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27205737&postcount=4571

yes failing to UNDO lag Fix, before flashing anything else can cause serious problems , with internal SD card
But your current problem is unknown USB connection, it takes patience and elimination of likely cause to resolve it.
1) you have to make sure your USB cable is good, your USB slot is good, your PC drivers are good
to do this , you may need to borrow your friends SAMSUNG USB cabe and his PC, to eliminate, those causes
or IF you have spare samsung USB cable and a different PC/laptop, you should try them
i done it
xsenman bro.i done everything u described bt all in vein.used pc.s laptop.s cable.drivers.before trying to wipe up cache.cable was working fine.i dont think so there is any hardware issue with galaxy.i appreciated the effort u r making for me.find something else man.thanks

can you give a link or from where to download with tutorial?
i found my year old galaxy mini s5570 a few weeks ago..it was running the good old froyo 2.2.1...i rooted it and updated it to 2.3.6 and rooted it again...after the update my computer started giving me error "USB Device not recognised" whenever i connected my phone. I tried booting it in download mode and recovery but the computer says the same error. My device is unable to get into recovery but download mode is accessible....i have tried the usb fix which involves a gentle lifting of the toungue of the micro-usb port........i was trying again and again to reach recovery and suddenly i was able to access it (Stock recovery).i did a wipe data and a wipe cache and since then my phone is stuck at the screen where it says "Samsung" and underneath it "www.samsungmobile.com"....thats all i seei cant get past it and now again i am unable to access the recovery.....IS IT BRICKED AND WHAT IS THE SOLUTION..
SORRY FOR SUCH A HUGE POST BUT I THOUGHT DESCRIBING ALL THAT HAS HAPPENED MIGHT HELP......
i have the proper device drivers and the cable is also fine (Tried switching cables and it did not help).
Windows 8? And as long as you have download mode try reflashing stock GB and avoid windows 8 with flashing.

Hello,
first i want to excuse me for my bad english, i hope you will understand my problem.
I have a rooted GT-S5830 with Froyo (2.2.1).
The plan was to install CWM and then a custom Rom.
I've downloaded CWM 5.0.2.6 for the Galaxy Ace, renamed the .zip to update.zip (it doesn't work while it was named CWM_XXXXXXX.zip), copied it to SD-Card and installed it via the original Recovery Mode.
The Installation went well, i rebooted the phone and everything was fine.
Now the problem: I can't go to the Recovery Mode.
Every Time I press Home and Power, my Phine stuck at the second SAMSUNG-Logo and, after a few minutes, it boot to the"normal" Mode.
I've tried to do an update via KIES, but my Notebook says that the Phone will not be seen in Download-Mode...
Odin didn't see the Phone (same Problem...Download Mode...)
So... Is there any Idea to restore the Recovery Mode or renew it or... whatever.
Thank you all
greetings
stanse
now everything is broken...
OK,
thank you for thinking about it, now the Phone doesn't boot any more.
It stucks at the first SAMSUNG Logo.
In a german forum i found a .exe which will bring the phone to recover mode, i've tested it and now evrything is broken...
LESSON LEARNED...

Here is the link on how to install stock Gingerbread rom using odin along with all firmwares. Go to the "Preparations" section and download all the necessary files including drivers. When your notebook cannot detect the phone, its usually the drivers. To go to the download mode, hold Vol Down+ Home + Power button until you see "Downloading..." in the screen.
Flash stock rom on Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830 using odin
Once installed, go to recoverymod and do a wipe data/ factory reset & wipe cache (otherwise bootloop might occur). Then restart. Now you have successfully flashed the stock rom. Here is the link for rooting and installing CWM 5 on Samsung Galaxy Ace,

Do post the result. Hope I Helped
Thank you for your post.
The biggest problem is that the phone will not be shown in download mode, so Odin says that there is no phone connected.
I have tried 3 different driver packages...
The link to Samsung says that the phone (GT-S5830) is too old for letting me download any driver.
I think that everything will work when the phone will be recognized by computer..

Can you tell me what happens when you hold Vol Down+ Home+ Power button?
Then the download mode starts...
It looks different like at my Galaxy S4, but there is written "downloading" in yellow letters
No Samsung Logo before, no sound, no animation...
Hope that this is the right mode...

That is the Download Mode of Galaxy Ace alright. All you have to do now is connect to the odin and it should detect the phone. If not please reinstall the drivers. Hope I Helped
I've done exactly what you say nearly hundred times, with different driver packages, different computers, different cables, yesterday, today, at morning, afternoon and evening. I don't know what to do now...
I think that it is a driver fault, but no chance to fix it.
There are lots of problems wich are more important than this...
Thank you for your help, but i think that i need a new way to solve the problem.
Time will tell.

simple solution to yr problem. reinstall kies, or if you dont ve it install remember to stay connected to internet,when kies ask if u want to install driver for bada or other models check the box. the next time u connect yr phone in download mode yr drivers will be installed... or if u can get another working ace connect to yr pc to geet the drivers installed.
Ok, first thx for your post...

Is there a live CD with an OS wich will be
Supported by all necessary programs?
When there will be no solution, than there is another question: WILL IT BLEND???

I don't know what you mean by connecting to Linux. But if you meant using odin in Linux, then well it will not work even with Wine. Wine doesn't work reliably with things that need hardware connections.
