You may not have installed some tools like C++,DirectX etc.
I don't know how to solve your problem because is windows related,not ODIN.
Also you are on the wrong section.
PS:Use the other "lappy" to flash things to your phone.

It may also be .NET Framework related.

Bull****. I run without Admin perms on Windows 7 and works great. Check DirectX, .netFramework, and other needed components. Or try another PC if you can. E.g on friend PC.

Try this one

Thank for the reply...as i said, other odin working well, i flash my ace without any problem...only odin v4.43 cant, so i cant flash any rom to my s plus...
It work before, then i use it to flash stock rom to my s plus...after that i want to flash broodrom...then it corrupt even if i select stock rom...
What the need of this post? Coz i cant solve it, if u cant solve it then said just use the other lappy...your comment is not helping as you too cant solve my problem...

[Q] XPERIA Z Unresponsive just a red light Tried everything of..URGENT HELP NEEDED :(

Well i just unlocked my bootloader etc and everything was working fine now all of a sudden i tried flashing my first ROM which was the PAC Man rom which i used on my note 2 now well theres no signal s if its a tablet and when ever i flash the rom over and over again it says setting up tablet any one know how i can get around this....? I've tried using PC Companion but because i've obviously got the pac man rom installed it wont let me repair my phone through that method because i m using a custom rom and the flash tool method wont work because it cant find the drivers (probably because it thinks its a tablet).....seriously guys any help here would be appreciated....need to get my phone working before i head out to work in 8 hours time....
Might be worth mentioning now after so much trying out things my xperia is just stuck on a red light.....

Does any one know if i can use fastboot to re install stock firmware it seems to be the only thing thats working for my phone atm....

turn your phone completely off (hold vol-up + power until you get 3 vibrations) then hold down volume down, and insert the usb cable, this will put the device into flash mode, then use EMMA, FlashTool, or PC Companion to restore to stock.
The red light issue that you are seeing sounds like one of 2 issues, the red light shines like that when the battery is flat and needs to be charged before it can boot, or if you flash an unsigned kernel when the bootloader is locked.

You need to RE-lock bootloader to update or reinstall official way with PC Companion or you will get this error.

[Q] Help, Google account and play store don't work anymore!

Hi everyone,
I have a Samsung Galaxy s3 mini and rooted.
The Google play store and the youtube used to function normally before the root, but after I rooted my device I opened the Play Store and it said "No Connection" but I had internet connection, the browser, facebook and these kind of apps worked normally. I tried to remove my google account from my device and tried to re-add it. Had no luck in adding it, it said Can't establish a good connection! even though my device had a good internet connection.
This happened also to my brother's Galaxy Wonder (Cm10 rom and rooted) but I fixed it by re-flashing the rom and everything went just fine afterwards.
My device has the stock rom and I don't want to change it.
What should I do? Please help me!
Model number: GT-I8190
My android version is 4.1.2 and baseband version is I8190XXAMD3
Stock Rom and Kernel.

Try some of the tips on here mostly clearing the data.

I've tried everything in that post, still nothing works.
Google playstore opens but it keeps telling me to put a google account.
(When it gives the two options Existing or new). After I put the email it says can't establich a good connection.

A few people like you are having the same problem, it's very strange. Did you try using the last version of Google Play on the link I put on here. http://d-h.st/DxV

How to flash or install it?
And is it original or official? I mean if I install it would it update itself when google releases a new update for the play store? Or must I download it by my self and install it like I will do with this one?

The account is already removed I just can't add it back. I get as the pic I sent earlier shows.
Edit:
I remember that my brother installed Freedom.apk on the wonder and on my s3 mini, then it stopped working.
I've also read now that freedom is not compatible with any play store 4.x.x.
What can I do to reverse this? I uninstalled it but nothing works.

Maybe it's time to install stock firmware again & try a fresh login with nothing else installed.

Ok if I have got no other choice. But how?
Settings then factory data reset?

Do a factory reset, if that don't help you I would recommend you download your AMD3 for the i8190 and install with Odin.
Download your firmware from here look under i8190 4.1.2 then your country. Don't know where your from, so don't know which country you got to pick. If UK then pick BTU.

One more question though, which one should I choose?
- I8190XXAMD3 / OXAAMD3 DBT Germany
- I8190XXAMD3 / XEGAMD1 Germany
- I8190XXAMD3 / OXXAMD1 BTU UK
- I8190XXAMD3 / OXXAMD1 TPH Portugal
Look on this map to see which one is closer
Israel is marked with number 5 on the right down.

You can try Turkish firmware if you like if that don't work for you then roll back to German AMD3. Strange though no Israeli firmware, because every other country has there region.

I tried to unistall and still same problem when I install the new version. It even happens when the watch is off too. I think the new version detects if you have a rooted phone.

I just updated mine while being rooted. I had to uninstall updates then then update. Try that and see if it helps. Had to reboot as well. When I just tried the typical update like normal it kept locking up my phone, that's when I rebooted uninstalled then started over like when u first pair your gear. Everything works and I'm on the new version and rooted gear as well. Last time I did the update I had to reset my gear and lost root but this time it didn't.

KIES EFR is NOT compatable with kies 3 or Kies2.xxx for updates or EFR.
So ... heres another knife in the back from samsung, not only can we not instal custom recovery
wecan't even use KIES to EFR back to stock.

Rebooted, recognized device but KIES says "MJ5 not compatable to upgrade via kies"
Seriously Samsung wtf.

Wow, so if all they do is OTAs from now on does that mean that EFR will never work?

Not even stores have the update to help out. Att or best buys with the samsung kiosk. Which is worrisome. I'm used to being able to just go back to stock to solve these issues. Now it just hope nothing happens to you phone that requires a firmware install.

I'm speaking with Samsung through facebook(ha) support and they're saying it is supported. Are they unaware or stupid?

KIES 3 will work in the sense that you can use every thing BUT:
The EFR tool
&
The Update tool
Everything else with KIES 3
should be fine for your gn3.
And to reiterate, as I stated before... This thread is not about KIES itself, it's about the tool inside KIES: "EFR tool".

I think your barking up the wrong tree here. Kies restore is available for the note 3 for Tmobile, Verizon and Sprint. Leads me to believe At&t are the ones being a$$ holes.

FU LG !! Got my 20$$
But seriously guys no clue whats up, but heres what I got when trying to run:
Update Firmware Tool & EFR(Emergency Firmware Recovery) tool
All I know is I was hoping to use EFR to get back to MI5, and no matter if I
tried to use the "Update Tool" or "EFR tool"
the image I posted is the message I got.
BTW the image is from like 10 min ago.

I keep getting device not responding while trying to connect to kies. Is there a service on the phone that kies needs to be running? I froze a bunch of stuff in TIBU and wonder if I froze something that it needs.

unsettling and upsetting.

Hey Freak- Keep us posted on your progress. I can't believe Samsung or AT&T would disable the Emergency Recovery in Kies. It seems to me it would lessen the amount of warranty returns. This phone is looking less desirable with each roadblock we encounter.

I found the service that was causing my issue. You need to have wssyncmlnps enabled for Kies to make the connection. I had froze it because it was using a lot of battery.

but this shouldnt make a difference using Kies. if the phone is soft bricked you would not be able to access this anyway. I went to best buy and the samsung kiosk. they called up samsung and the rep told him that the firmware was not supported/released for kies or any download interface. att could not do it, best buy could not do it. they had to just replace the phone.
Which i do think is stupid. Why have so many replacements when you can just release the firmware and same your reps time and money on the replacements.
