Hey guys my friends phone for some reason wont recognize the USB from the computer. So we cant put anything on his internal card, the usb just charges it. I tried to odin in download mode and still wont read the phone. Tried USB debugging, try reformatting, tried factory resetting, battery pull, clearing cache etc. Just everything you can do basically.
Wondering if anyone knows a fix for this.
Thanks.
Stupid question, but oort worked before correct?
What rom are you on
What are you looking to do
He is on Seredipities 5.8 with the suckerpunchs kernel.
It did before but stopped randomly 2 weeks ago.
He just wants the function back as it is very inconvenient.
Try different kernel
Dl sgs kernel flasher from market
Dl hardcore kernel
Open app
Choose kernel
...
Navigate to download folder
Select kernel zip
Flag kernel
Tried that and still nothing.
What happens when you plug into the pc? Are you using an oem cord?
Tried reinstalling drivers?
We get no response from my computer, and his computer says USB no recognized.
I already reinstalled the drivers, my phone works no problem just his. Same builds too.
We are using the OEM cord and when we plug it in his phone just starts charging, nothing about USB.
Got me, could try another rom, although I am bit certain that will work. Sorry, could be a hardware issue
Perhaps I'll get him to do that if there is a rom that doesnt requite odin back to stock.
Hopfully it isnt a hardware issue.
Thanks anyways.
Any rom can be flashed without odin, I do it all the time, did it twice today
Ok will give it a try, just every rom I read they tell us to flash to stock so just assumed we had to.
Honestly, old habit, dev do not know what you have on your phone so if you start from stock easier to problem shoot
Sorry I just read my mistake
We flashed a new rom but now he is stuck on the boot screen... Can't even get into recovery any more. I guess its bricked now? f**k...
What rom, can you still get into recovery, how long in boot screen
Stayed for ever, waited 15 mins. Can't get into recovery either. We tried to flash a froyo stock rom.

u need ADB....
adb reboot recovery
edit....just re-read that..... why on earth stock froyo? you flashed a stock rom over a voodoo enabled filesystem...just flash a voodoo kernel from odin

That is your problem right there. I wish you posted that first. Serendipity had ext 4 lag fix, custom recovery. All custom roms have custom recovery that can understand ext 4. Stock dots not so you should of disabled lag fix first.
Get into dl mode try all ported on pc to get odin to recognize
Can't even get in download mode.

Did you do any formats, wipes, factory resets, and if so, in what environment (android, recovery, adb, ...)

I had the same issue after upgrade to US stock ICS and attempt to install CWM recovery resulted in a tablet that would not boot. Rebooted into recovery mode, rebooted from there to download mode and tried the Odin flash again using the US stock ICS. Each time I did this it got a bit further (as indicated by the download bar on the tablet screen) and eventually it succeeded. I am no expert so I completely fail to understand why this worked but it did.

Just like i said before.. In warning: Do not wipe or anything related to that if youre in ICS..
With stock kernel or stock recovery or One of them but you still in stock ICS boot.img wiping is risky..
if you use a safe recovery but your boot.img is not safe. ..or your boot.img is safe but recovery.img isnt. .
Your still have the emmc bug risk..
Stuck on system.img means odin not recognized your system partition.. Maybe corrupted or faulty..
Please read my warning in general section..

i took a thin box cutter blade and ran it around the edge of the screen while gently pushing out and pulling up... the screen easily separates from the back cover.... behind the screen is a white battery with small mutil colored wires...gently pull up the wires from the mainboard..... battery is now disconnected.... to put back just push those wires back down onto its connectors....
to completely remove there are screws running along the battery... and two ribbons...detach ribbons and unscrew battery
same problem
i have the same problem how do u use adb to install rom?
or what do u use to install rom,adb or odin? and what procedure do you do? please reply immediately..thanks
See my signature
This thread saved my ass. I too was stuck at the system.img.
Tried to restore using ADB but no joy. I was still able to access the download mode so kept trying ODIN.
It turned out to be my USB 3.0 ports on my laptop.
As soon as I used my USB 2.0 ports on my docking station ODIN worked fine!:laugh:

if odin hangs up halfway through the process, what u have to do is install stock recovery through odin.... then go in to recovery and format data...go back to odin and install clockwork recovery.... go back into recovery and mount system and mount data... next download a app called quick adb pusher on to pc select the rom u want to push... under destination type /data/media/ press send and install ur rom
Failed with Odin 3.09, worked with Odin 3.07
I don't know if this will help.
I needed to re-flash my SM-T310 with the Kitkat 4.4.2 Stock ROM. I found a page suggesting I used Odin 3.09 and the stock ROM pointed to from the Samsung site. I started the load, and saw the same problem, my Odin Log looked just like the one posted earlier. Out of sheer desperation, I started again using the version of Odin (3.07) I had previously used to load TWRP.
And it worked perfectly. Loaded the various components, rebooted, came up with the initial screen ... Phew !!
Maybe I just had some sort of nasty glitch, maybe Odin 3.07 is a bit less picky (!) I have no idea. All I know is it worked for me !!
I had this same problem - got stuck on system.img very near the end, stayed there for hours. Finally fixed it by attaching the usb cable to a different port *d'oh*
same problem stuck in system.img

Hi Guys.
Got an I9305 here, I rooted it (apparently fine), then (via recovery) flashed a cusom ROM, rebooted but it stayed on the I9305 screen. Now I can't get to recovery, it will go to download but I can detect it via heimdall, and it still wont boot. Have I killed it or is there anything I can do to resurect it? I've been searching the forums here for ages, but I'm just going in circles with getting any closer to a solution.
Ideas?

If you can get download mode then try flashing a stock ROM via Odin.
You're still in luck when you have download mode, when you don't have that or recovery then you start worrying.
PS: don't forget you have a I9305 when searching for a stock ROM.

I can get to download (the only place I can get), but neither Odin or Heimdall will connect to it, they both just sit there as if the phone isn't plugged in.

Then you don't have the correct drivers installed
Have you used Odin/Heimdall before?

OK got it connect now, I've used Heimdall several times on my I9300 without problem so I think it's a hardware problem. I flashed a new recovery and can now get to that when needed but it still wont let me boot any ROMs I flash, it just hangs at the I9305 screen. Is there anyway I can reset the custom binary count from Heimdall/Odin or recovery so I can send it back to get replaced/fixed?
Try this before doing anything drastic, It's stock but rooted but do it through Odin.

These roms you've been flashing, do they contain a kernel? Hanging on boot screen can be indicative of a couple of things, firstly, if you have the wrong kernel, fix that. Secondly, try clearing data and cache, this can work wonders. Thirdly, if ADB is currently enabled, try bringing up a shell through it ("adb shell", note: not in recovery obviously, as this mode is already working fine) and type "dmesg", this will print out what the kernel is currently doing, usually if something is erroring you will see the same text re-appear multiple times. If the kernel initiation gets stuck in a loop it will literally never get out of it so that would be a good way to see that, could be a piece of hardware is damaged. Since you can get to recovery I reckon you should be able to mount system/data in that and enable ADB in android if it isn't already, I don't know how to do this though.
Good luck!
Something that's helped me before in this situation was:
Go to mounts and storage in recovery and format System, Data and Internal storage.
Then download stock firmware and Flash via Odin.
This pretty much wipes your phone of everything and gives you a fresh install
You have to wipe data after flashing a ROM
Hi Guys,
I tried flashing a stock ROM via Heimdall again, and this time it worked. The phone is still very flacky though, so I'm convinced it's a hardware issue. Managed to triangle away and get everything stock, so they should never know when I send it back for replacement ;^>
Thanks to all for your suggestions.

Hi,
My phone -Note 4 N910T- is stucked at bootscreen, and it can not to boot into recovery mode too. It is bootloop after upgrading by OTA from Kitkat 4.4.4 - N910TUVU1ANK4.
I tried to flash stock firmware( using both "N910TUVU1ANK4" and "N910TUVU1COD6" ), or full files stock firmware ( included PIT files),but it hasn't worked. I also tried to flash by Smatch Swich, everything seem OK but it can not fix.
I attached some photos of my problem for your reference.
Please help me.
Thanks,
You didn't mention if you tried using Kies?

I was going to suggest the same thing. Try using Kies and go to Tools\Emergency firmware recovery and see if that works.
Can you get into download mode?

Yes, I can. One of my attached photos has shown as above. I tried to flash via ODIN or Smart Switch ( Kies 3), the program has shown OK but I still got the problem.

It is pretty hard to brick these phones. Just in case you have a bad file or something. Grab the zip and follow these instructions. I know that all these files in this zip are good so it is worth a shot.
Even if you know what you are doing, follow the instructions exactly, you may be overlooking something. It happens to everyone sometimes.

After you odin whichever firmware you flashed, wait about 10 min or so on that boot screen that is stucked. Then pull the battery out. Go into stock recovery but power+home+vol up. Then select wipe data/reset. Reboot and it should boot just fine.
At least that's how i fixed my phone that stuck few times like what you going through.

The problem is my phone can not access to stock recovery or TWRP recovery. It just stuck at first bootscreen which is shown "Samsung Galaxy Note 4 powered by Android", then restart and stuck again. So that I can not wipe data or reset to fix.

Since you can still get into download mode, what happens if you flash TWRP through ODIN? Step 10 in the instructions I posted assuming it is still rooted or start at step 8 if not. Just to see if you can get recovery working again.
You are wasting time...start over, it's your best and quickest fix....

My Note 4 has been properly rooted and working fine until recently.
Today I decided to boot into recovery and clear some crap out.
It says RECOVERY but no menu, then the Droid dude flashes on and off a black screen.
The phone will NOT boot normally, only into this crazy recovery loop.
I can get into download mode.
My rom was stock, just rooted.
Please help me fix this.
Can I download a stock rom to my sd card, get into download and install from sd...In hopes of regaining phone access??
I can't wipe anything as I can't access recovery, so I'm hesitant about going custom right now. I really just want my phone working again, so I don't have to pay insurance deductibles for a replacement.
Please advise.

Have you tried using ODIN to flash the stock firmware
Sadly, my computer died last month, so unless I can borrow someone's, Odin is not an option currently...which is why I was hoping for a device only method.
Any thoughts??
Have you tried your local carrier to see if they can flash the stock firmware for you. They may replace the phone for free. Otherwise borrowing a computer would be my next step
So I've called Tmo, who had me call Samsung...because I've apparently done everything, and I could not regain access via ODIN...so Samsung has me going to Best Buy to see if the Samsung approved folks can get a software recovery working...
I'll let you know how it goes...
In the meantime, if anyone else has any suggestions besides ODIN...
Thanks in advance!
To anyone in a similar situation...
I am sorry, but I have no good news.
The final solution is to swap the device through my carrier.
ODIN did not work.
I could not get it to read the sd card/rom from the download mode, and the recovery menu never produced.
Tmo could not help.
Samsung could not help.
