Need to flash Ativ S missing drivers? - Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all.
I started experiencing weird problems with my Ativ S, so I thought I do a hard reset and start clean. I got stuck to a known issue with the Ativ and GDR3, where after hard reset the apps wont instal from the store. The only solution I saw was to flash the device. I have the GDR2 rom so I thought no problem, however I cant get the drivers to instal on the download mode so I could start the flash process.
I have tried to instal 2 different drivers: SamsungUSBDriver.msi and I8750_Qualcomm_USB_composite_driver_HK11-VB717-38.zip Neither of these (that I found, if they are the correct packages) have worked so that the Ativ is recognized correctly in the download mode and I could start flash. When Ativ is connected in the download mode, its only seen as USB DOWNLOADER with exclamation point at device manager.
Im running 64bit Windows 8.1 Pro system.
Any suggestions are welcomed! Thanks!

And installing SamsungUSBDriver.msi results in an error pictured here. Although next time trying to instal the driver is present as it gives an repair option.

Ok so I found this, probably somthing that could be expected: 2. Install Driver on your PC (i had problems with win 8.1 X64, win7 X64 installation fine)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2391138
So I would need a Win7 system, no idea where I would have one... Other suggestions for this?

Ok problem solved by installing Windows 7 to a empty drive just for this flashing. Luckily I didnt have to instal any updates, just the os and the usb driver.

First thing to try is test each of the different usb ports on your computer - if you get the same error on each port then my first instinct would be to reinstall the samsung drivers for your computer.
If you try reinstalling the drivers below is a link to the drivers that have worked the best for me.

thanks for your replay. i already have uninstall the drivers and reinstall them with no success, but i will try to test it in other usb port and report later

Problem with getting recovery to work properly

Hi
I wanted to install the GOT 2.2 on my Milestone, but I've got a problem. I boot my phone in recovery, connect it to my PC, but my PC can't find the drivers. I've installed the driver package from the Motorola site, but still no luck. My phone comes up as "A853". My PC is running Windows Vista 32-bit.
Any ideas on how to fix this?

[Q] Usb not Recognised SGS HELP?

usb device not recognised...so drivers wont install. skip to device manager and then there is and unknown device when i view this windows gives the error :
Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)
its really starting to destroy my soul...none of the methods previously posted are working..
Please help
You dont mention Kies installed .
Install Kies on phone go to settings and select mass storage mode .
Connect USB cable wait for pc to find phone and install drivers .
jje
yeah sorry kies is installed i tried different versions of that aswell.
There is an install driver option in Kees, try to re-install driver. Be aware that in kies it takes too long to install driver(don't know why), for long time it will show 100% in progress bar but wait until you get driver successfully installed driver message in Kies, it tool more than 10 mins.
Just fixed the similar problem today only, on Windows 7 64 bit, was struggling to but re-installation worked. Earlier I also tried reinstall driver but I thought it stuck on installation so I canceled but not today I gave it full time hence I said wait till you get success message. I didn't connected the device till driver installed.
May be your problem will also get fixed by this, nothing wrong in trying.

waaaaa not recognized

my galaxy tab p1000 not recognized in download mode when im using odin...
can anybody help me iwant to reflash my tab...
Did you try to flash it anyway? Just keep trying. Good idea to be fully charged too.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA
boss ill try it a couple times but cant read my device i want to reflash my tab is bricked....uhuhuh
many has done it.
As long as you can go to download mode, you are not bricked.
remember to have it charged for at least 4hrs.
Just connect it to Odin preferably at the same USB port as the one you used before.
Reboot it to download mode while data cable is connected, then try Odin.
Connecting in Download Mode
I had the same problem when i changed laptop. So on my new machine, the PC would not recognize my P1000 in the download mode. I was running win xp.
The problem was that it wasn't able to automatically locate the drivers. No wonder it wasn't. The drivers aren't built in to xp driver cache. So here is what you need to do:
Download Samsun Kies from samsung website. Do a search on google and you'll get to it.
Once downloaded, install Samsung Kies. No need to run it or anything. Once downloaded, plug that tab in download mode to USB of PC, and it will get detected and the drivers will get installed.
I still have KIES installed, but i never used it, i just installed it for the drivers.
Let me know if this helped.

Hi Dude,
Instead of installing Kies on your XP or windonws 7 for only driver, you can install driver using below guide.
Go to Google and search as Galaxy Tab Driver and go...Click Modaco Website & then Download.

Overcome's GB-stock-safe-v5 zip package contains USB drivers too, both 32bit and 64bit.
But the best is of course in linux, just a single line of definition in udev.
same here - SOLVED
I had the same problem (not recognized).. What I did to resolve the problem by:
1. Re-install Samsung USB drivers (got from here --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1881981)
2. Set the tab in DL mode and connect to the PC... wait for windows to install drivers.... DONE!
3. Startd Odin_v1.83.. CONNECTED!!! (seen by yellow COM#)
Hope this helps.. HIT THANKS PLS!

3T Soft bricked I'm afraid

Let me explain, I'm not overposting.
I recently wiped all of the partitions (including internal storage) from recovery, this got me soft bricked. I can't install a new rom (nor from recovery, nor via adb).
So I tried this https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3t/how-to/unbrick-unbrick-tutorial-oneplus-3t-t3515306 , but I get stuck when it comes to installing the driver on my pc: my phone is shown as unknown device, my pc won't let me install the driver (marked as non compatible with a 64bit pc). I'm running on a 64bit Windows 10, and I can get into test mode.
Anyone can help me?
Thanks in advance guys
I used these drivers on Win10 x64. All you have to do is to temporarily boot with disabled driver signature enforcement (as stated in the tutorial).
Don't mess with test mode.
Turns out my usb ports had a problem... Sorry, after hours of trying it was just a stupid problem.
Thank you anyway!
