[Q] Soft Brick

I've searched all over the posts and google and have yet to find a solution. I am a MAC user and trying to restore fascinate. I am stuck at Samsung screen. I can get into Clockwork Mod Voodoo.
When i did my last backup I never enabled USB Debugging. I can not ./adb into device, nor can I use ODIN on friends PC. (No Device) Same result with Heimdal "Failed to detect Device" I would just like to get back to stock. Is there a step by step guide to recover similar to ODIN get you back to stock but for a MAC. Or since i never enabled Debug mode I should just use my warranty?

When you tried Odin, did you have the battery out and put the phone in download mode?

Yes, I did see the Yellow triangle Droid character w/ shovel

So, battery out and in download mode, Odin doesn't recognize? Hm

I feel because I never enabled debug mode originally.

Does it recognize the phone at all? Maybe the drivers need to be updated

Morning, I'm attempting to resolve the same issue. I have the "Yellow Shovel" Andy but I can't get Odin to recognize the device.
The device was fine and Odin was working last night, however I do believe I did something ridiculous last night. I tried flashing my phone with a Nexus S rom and succeeded. HOWEVER, the only buttons that are recognized are the "Home" and "Menu" soft keys.
I can boot into the 2.3 Nexus S rom but I can't get the hardware to recognize anymore.
UPDATE: I managed to get the USB to recognize. I'm not completely sure how, it just started recognizing it after fidgeting with the cable. I'm not flashing it back to stock using ODIN and the following post.

UPDATE: The link above worked. I recommend using the stock USB cable that comes with the phone. Now that it's back.. I'm curious to know what I would have to change for 2.3 to work.. hm..

Hi Syrian Eagle,
You should
Boot into "Download Mode"
start odin / heimdall
connect with computer via USB
load Stock firmware files
click on "Flash"- / "Start" - Button (I can't remember how is called)

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1637966
You could use this tutorial..you'll find package with Samsung drivers etc..make sure you have uninstalled old drivers & rebooted before installing new ones.
Also make sure you have working USB cable etc.

Thanks for your help but my problem is when i connect my phone in download mode or regular mode the pc doesn't see my phone and my phone doesn't say any thing (like if he is not connected) i think not a driver issue because previously i connect the phone into ODIN but now after flushing the paranoid ROM this problem appear .

Your USB cable must be damaged or your USB port may need cleaning or damaged try these solutions http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27205737&postcount=4571

If you have come from a GingerBread ROM that would be correct.
ICS/JB ROMS USE DIFFERENT DRIVERS
Now follow the advise and reinstall the samsung drivers and try again.

Thank you very much but my problem is not resolved because when i connect my phone into the pc my phone and the pc doesn't show any thing like if he is not connected

Turn off the phone, remove battery, wait 1 minute, put the battery back and restart the phone. Then connect the phone to your pc and see if that helped.

Every possible reason and solutions that I am aware of, for them are mentioned on that link , you have to try and test each one out, including various Drivers, for you to test...
BUT you keep saying there was no Sign of connection, which means the PC does not say anything (like unknown USB Device) or make a sound and your USB icon does not appear on the phone...am I correct???
That simply means there is NO link, which means, its either your USB cable or USB Port is damaged

Try that:
You can use this software to repair Your dead Samsung i9505 and similar (m919, i337, L720 etc)
Note, You need to install QHUSB Qualcomm drivers first.
After flashing with this software, You need to flash phone with official firmware and PIT file, otherwise phone will be dead again, and You'll need to repeat the process.
If You get errors reported by this software (command prompt window), You'll have to replace the eMMC chip first.​

Did you install the drivers for the phone?
Did u put phone in download mode and flash with odin?
If so, trying closing all kies process, changing usb port and run odin with admin. Flash pit file and stock firmware.

What odin version are u using? Are u sure you have properly installed kies or drivers? The latest kies version? Try disabling antivirus and installing latest kies.

tried with odin 1.85 3.04 and 3.07 and yea latest kies i uninstalled antivirus to be on safe side as i no it can conflict with odin and stuff

The problems you are having are purely driver issues. Try flashing the phone on another computer.

Let us know if it worked

Try a different data cable it worked for me
Sent from my GT-I9505 using xda premium

Well I've had some problems too today and there a couple of things you might want to try (I'm sure one of them will fix it):
- Pick a different USB port (preferably one in the back)
- Try a different USB cable (I used one from my Nexus 7, didn't work. Tried with the original S4 cable, worked)
- Uninstall Kies and the Samsung drivers from you control panel -> programs
- Download the Samsung USB Drivers again (google it) (do not install them yet)
- Download and install USB Deview (google it) and delete every driver of Samsung you come across in the list (just right click and click delete)
- Disable your internet access and reboot
- After rebooting install the Samsung Drivers (without an internet connection)
- Plug in your phone after you've installed the drivers and enable USB Debugging
- Reboot
- Enable your internet connection again
- Try to flash again in Odin (it should work now)
If this won't work, I don't know what will. A different USB port, cable, fresh/original drivers (not the ones Windows Update may try to install for you), etc is probably what you'll need to get it working.

thanks for every ones help we installed a fresh copy of windows 7 and installed every thing again and it worked fine defo must of been driver related :laugh:

Cheers now flash away like there's no tomorrow

[Q]_S5360, USB Device Not Recognized_ Help plz

I tried a ROM, and i fail, i can't turn on my phone (s5360), i must back my phone to STOCK ROM with Odin, but USB Device Not Recognized, i installed driver, help me

follow the instructions on my thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2568853
if you have installed the driver correctly using rear usb ports if on a pc and set your phone to download mode correctly there is no reason why odin will not display com then a number in a coloured box under com:id which shows odin is connected and you have android adb device displayed in device manager

thanks your help but it not work

you can not use kies to flash or restore firmware on galaxy y - it is not supported and kies is just not needed
if you have installed the usb drivers from the link in my thread (in compatibility mode if on windows 8/8.1) - are using a working usb cable rear usb ports on pc and correct split firmware from my thread it will work
unless you have a faulty usb port/cable it will be due to user error

Are you boot into download mode already? If not , odin will not recognize your phone anyway

install samsung usb driver first n then connect your phone with download mode by usb
Note:make sure that usb driver is install properly before connect ur phone

Try to use your cable connected from your pc and your phone again. If the same problem happened, try to connect your phone using that cable to another pc. BUT if that phone is not recognized, I think the problem is in the cable. Try to buy another one, and if same thing happened, the problem is in the usb port of your phone.
