1- Wrong section.
2- You do not give any info about what is going on.
Have you used Odin before? Did you have USB debugging enabled? Have you tried other USB ports on your computer, or other computers if available? What happens when you plug your phone in to a computer? Do you have the proper drivers installed on your computer?

Going "only" by your topic, if that's truly the case I can only recommend that you build/use a jig. Otherwise we need more info.

Thanks...
I have been flashimg ROMs using Odin first, but recently after flashing Axura I noticed that I couldnt see my device on a pc (i tried a few) and then when I tried to flash odin, I was unable to.

You have been around awhile it seems so give more info so people can help. You never answered any of my questions. It could be as simple as your drivers messed up. But since you aren't really saying what you have done, what the phone does when plugged to the computer you aren't going to get much help.

ok!
So I have been regularly flashing roms without issue. Loaded drivers onto two different pcs without issue and was able to odin every time. Was also able to see my internal and external storage cards from both machines (one is xp, other w7).
I have flashed quite a few roms recently including flashing directly over a rom (phoenix rising 1 to 2) using only CWM. I did this because I couldnt get, my pc to see my device. So I am not sure of exactly when it went wrong.
I reinstalled the dirvers on both pcs
But that didn't help. Phone just charges. I have tried to ' restore' to stock but phone just hangs on bootscreen, but I was able to reflash 2.2roms usings CWM.
interestingly I have had real difficulty getting into download mode. Also, if I use rom manager to install a rom it says I have an error getting into download mode. I can only get in via cwm. I generally cannot get in with the 3 key method. And I van never get in,from the enhanced shutdown menu. It just reboots.
Sometimes when I try to boot I get stuck for a bit on the battery charging graphic, except it sgows an empty battery (when it isnt).
Sometimes ro get it to boot I,have to plug in usb power even if battery charged.
Finally when device is off and I plug it in to charge, it boots up.

*** UPDATE ***
For no reason I can fathom, all of a sudden my PC sees my Captivate. the ONLY thing I did was using TITANIUM I did a re-backup of all my apps. It did something but I dont know what.

lol happen to reboot your computer in between then?
Btw.. there are a TON of posts (including the Q&A sticky) that shows you alternatives on how to get into DL mode on your phone.
The search button is your friend - all you have to do is look for "bricked"

Actually I didnt reboot...
and guess what, after an hour of seeing my captivate, I went into DL mode to run Odin FINALLY and all of a sudden it stopped recognizing the captivate. once again USB DEVICE NOT RECOGNIZED!!!
my issue isnt getitng ito DL mode, its getitng the PC to recognize my device.
anyone???

Sorry man, I am at a loss as to why your computer just up and stops recognizing the connection. I would back up your internal sd to your computer when you are/if able to get it to connect again and get a new one because something has to be defective with the phone.
Edit: You never answered one posters question about a different cable. Do you have one to try? Is the cable you are using the OEM Samsung?

All gone wrong.

Something really gone wrong for me here and have a feeling I have a brick.
1. Flashed ROCKET ROM-V19-XXLA4 from external sd using CWM.
2. Flash was confirmed rebooted.
3. Got Bootloop (Rocket Logo)
4. Could boot into download mode but PC not seeing device.
5. Removed battery for over 1 min.
6. Still no difference, the device just cant be seen. Even after reinstalling the drivers. via Kies trouble shooting.
Anyone have any ideas??

Did you have a backup
Can yiuget into recovery via vol up.home.power if si restore last working config.
Failing that its odin and stock rom
Its virtually impossible to brick a samsung phone yesvit can occur but v v unlikely

I had the same problem today, but it worked when i did this:
- Volume down + Home + Power
- Do not press continue yet
- Open Odin
- Connect it to the computer
- Choose Continue on the Note
Now the computer should install two new drivers (modem and another one), and then the phone will pop up on the computer.

Odin is seeing :- 0:[COM4]
Thanks so much really thought I'd bricked it. Forgot all about Odin A Beer and a thanks to you both.
Just a note, not sure what went wrong but I had to flash a full stock ROM including the Modem, Code and Multi to get it working again.

[Q] Connecting to computer?

(Sorry if I'm in the wrong section, there was no question thread)
My friend bought my galaxy tab and he did a factory reset on a rooted device, and it won't let him press "Start" on the set-up
There are no backups or anything, and I can't find a way to connect it to the computer to put a new rom on it. There's no sd card slot, so I can't load one on there, and mounting won't work even after I reinstalled kies and the drivers.
Like I said, no backups, won't even load rom, won't start set up, won't connect from the start screen, and unfortunetly won't mount through recovery.
Any ideas?
Btw it is CWM Recovery and the rom was Honey-something or another. It was honeycomb though for sure.

Have you tried putting it into download mode? and then use Odin to flash a ROM.

Yea good idea, I tried it but download didn't work. I was able to get into settings and set up wifi direct, so hopefully it'll let me send 400mb of a new rom over wifi direct. :/

No need to wifi direct the file, just put the gtab to download mode then open Odin in the computer, select the ROM desired using Odin, connect gtab in computer then click Start in Odin. Then Odin will install the ROM into your Gtab.

If you can get into the system enough to setup WiFi then you can also use adb to transfer files over a USB cable.

Possibly bricked Galaxy i9000

Hi, i bought a used Galaxy i9000 from a friend and it had Froyo 2.2 installed on it, i rooted the phone with an app on the phone because i couldn't seem to get any response when i plugged it into the laptop via usb lead. The computer will not detect the phone at all it just does nothing when it's plugged in. It will charge from the usb cable and charger but will not do anything once plugged into the computer. I tried using rom manager to install a rom, the last thing on-screen on the phone was saying that it was flashing the kernel, then it rebooted and since then the phone just displays Galaxy i9000 or it will also display a small circular clock type icon in the middle of the black screen and it is a frozen icon. The phone will go into download mode and i have tried to flash it with odin but when in download mode and plugged into the computer, Odin does not detect it, i have tried at least 6 usb cables all tested on my other i9000 and work fine but with this other phone they do not respond. The only thing i can think of is maybe the usb micro port is broken/faulty, what do you think it could be? Any help would be appreciated because i have been trying for hours for the past two days and cannot seem to figure it out, i'm just hoping the phone isn't beyond being repaired. Thanks

Did you install the latest version of samsung drivers?
if not install them, then try to flash again using odin... do it multiple times until you get it right.
and by the way, going into download mode without your computer recognizing your device is a big big mistake... hope it'll work for you
here you can get the latest drivers:

Have you tried in a different computer with automatic windows update switched on?

I have tried installing the latest drivers and also tried on another computer with no response. I have a working i9000 and tested it on both computers with the same user cables and it works fine, do you think the micro usb port is broken? I thanks for the replies

can you get into recovery mode, if you can you may be able to use a sd card to flash from. This depends on what recovery is already on there, have a look at this page http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30415128&postcount=1

It wont go into recovery mode it just boot loops when i try

Just yesterday I had issues with the latest Samsung driver (1.5.16.0 bricked my phone), so i reverted to1.5.9.0. This seemed to rectify flashing my recently acquired GT-I9000T.
It may help you.
P.S. 1.5.16.0 worked OK on my GT-I9100.

If you cannot go to download mode on the device and connect then with PC Odin then you do not only have a bricked device but a cold stone.
So try again: Download mode and connect to PC, start Odin and check the connection

If that's the stock rom you have, you will not be able to flash it via Cwm as those don't have the updater - script . You will need odin for that. Check if you can mount the phone to PC using recovery as there is and option to do it in mounts and storage. If no, then try using a SD card and download a custom rom. Then use Cwm to install it.

Two things to try, either take out the sd card, connect it to the computer, transfer a CUSTOM ROM on it, then try flashing it through CWM. OR, go into download mode (long press power button, home button and volume down all at once) and install stock ROM through odin.
The computer won't show that the device is connected, but the Odin should show the yellow box thing on the top left. If not, then maybe you need to install the Note's drivers first then try again.

Nope
The only thing to do is to rebuild your partition table removing bad blocks.
You will lose 2 or 3 Go of storage aera but your note will work.

I finally managed to get alliancerom to install on it. It would not mount to the computer, and odin did not recognise it, i had to put the sd card into the computer, put alliancerom onto it and install it using cwm.

And after a few months your phone goes crazy and then after a few weeks your memory is completely destroyed...

I never rebuilt partition etc, i just managed to flash alliancerom and speedmond kernel. Works very well for me now. I prefer my htc sensation xl though.
