I tried it Odin isn't recognize the device.

He's not in download mode anymore, this is just the phone telling you it doesn't have a connection to a machine to get boot informaion from and that there is no firmware to boot it self from.
Do a battery pull and read one of the other 99 threads with the same title as yours.

I did they all say pull the battery and hold both volume keys till you get into Download Mode (which isn't happening) then flash a new ROM. And those post are for other galaxy devices haven't seen one for the Epic.

what did you do before this happened?

You don't hold down the volume keys on the epic. You open the keyboard and hold the 1 key and the power at the same time. That will put you into download mode. Than odin should recognize your device.

Reboot computer and phone. Try a different USB port, try a different USB cable. Phone MUST be in download mode for this to work. Keep trying, if it fails, exit Odin, open it again and keep trying. Be sure to unplug and replug the USB cable between Odin attempts.
Some people have had success by removing the SD card prior to using Odin.
Keep trying, it can take multiple attempts before it works.

Its working Thanks your the best...

Make sure you're using latest version of odin 1.61 I think. Also make sure you put tar file in pda... not phone.

issues with Odin
I ran into a lot of issues getting Odin to flash the stock ROM on my Epic, including Odin errors, and Odin hanging on " SetupConnection..", but here's what I did to finally get this to work:
-pulled battery and SD card from Epic
-launched Odin just after a reboot of PC
-plugged into PC via USB and held power and the 1 key to get Epic into download mode (SD card and battery still pulled)
-used PIT: victory_8G_100528.pit
-used tar (in PDA section): SPH-D700-DG27-8Gb-REL.tar
-only had the option "auto-reboot" selected
With this scenario, I was finally able to get my Epic back to stock. Thanks to everyone who posted before me on this subject.
On a side note, I'm not 100% whether or not my phone was bricked, but it wouldn't get past the initial Samsung boot screen after I had tried to install some non standard software.

Can't flash files using Odin

Hello guys,
I am trying to install CWM recovery. As you certainly know the easiest way is by flashing the file via Odin.
Thing is I'm having a hard time trying to do what might look easy at first glance.
When opening Odin 3.09 as administrator, it is able to recognize my rooted 9505 (I'm on Samsung stock firmware) whenever I'm in download mode, but after selecting the corresponding CWM file and clicking Start, I get the following:
<ID:0/005> Added!!

I tried flashing the PIT partition file for my phone model, but I also get this:

<ID:0/005> File analysis..
<ID:0/005> SetupConnection..

I tried flashing the files independently and both at the same time. It always failed.
What can i do? I really don't know what else should be done to fix this.

I'm getting
Secure Check Fail: apnhlos
when I try to flash any PDA-compatible file in Odin.
What does that even mean? Android sure has some of the most cryptic error messages I have ever seen.

Have you tried using Odin 3.15?

Oh my bad. I was mistaking it for another program.
The version I used to root my pho e was Odin 3.07
http://samsung-updates.com/Odin307.zip
Also I presume you have the Samsung usb drivers installed?

Don't forget to exit, or better yet uninstall, Kies... This can affect flashing too...

Did you use the original samsung cable for flashing?Using another cable often cause issues.

The thing is that i have managed to actually root the phone via Odin using CF Auto root ( I had to click "Start" twice, but i ended up successfully rooting the phone)
I just don't know what I'm doing wrong this time around that it's preventing it from flashing files
Any more ideas? Cheers.

Same probleme here

Same problem here, the only difference is I was just doing a firmware update via Odin and something went wrong (I don't know what). The phone says "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again" but Kies is not recognizing the phone.
Please help!

Soft bricked my GT-i9505 and now Odin won't work. Complete(Write) operation failed.

I was trying to unlock my phone before this, before I gave up because I had downloaded the wrong version (5.0.1 UK stock instead of 4.2.2 stock, was trying to use the leaked unlock codes) and then I tried flashing TWRP 3.0.2-0 in Odin 3.10-7 which "Re-Partition" was ticked automatically for some reason and I didn't know. Now my phone is soft-bricked and Odin won't cooperate. Help me please!

Unfortunately that's gonna take a while due to my internet being reeeaaally crappy. It takes 3-4 hrs on average to download a 1.5 GB file.

Try changing the USB ports.I had the same problem like you 1 mouth ago and tried changing from the front USB ports to the back and it worked.

This is an old thread but gotta say LIFE SAVER.
Was flashing pit files left right and center, a simple switch to a USB 2.0 port fixed it. Thanks

Does your Odin error really say FAIL!! Model Dismatch or did it say "md5 mismatch?" I wanted to make sure that was not a typo.
