Pending on your version of odin the color could be different. I used 3.09 and it was a light greeny blue instead of yellow. As long as your id:com is showing up in some various colored square you should be good to go.

Help, my phone is now a mess! - no odin, bad clockwork

My phone is running DL30 based Blackhole 4.01 with the DL09 modem. When I try to plug my phone into a computer, the phone detects the computer, but the computer does not detect the phone.
- The phone starts charging
- The phone says "USB Debugging Connected"
- The computer does nothing
- adb devices lists no devices
- same thing in download mode, the computer doesn't see the phone
I have tried on OS X and booted into Windows XP.
I have no idea how to handle this. The one thing I tried was installing the Stock/rooted DL30 rom instead of Blackhole, but that didn't seem to fix and I went back.
To make matters worse, assuming that everything in ROM Manager is basically safe, I accidentally installed orange clockwork today and I cannot figure out how to get back to a working clockwork. The All ClockworkMod Recoveries option in ROM Manager does nothing - they all say download error.
Wow. If anybody can help with any of this, that would be great. Thanks everyone.
Did you install the proper samsung drivers onto the computer.
Edit: Also did you try to Odin, the title indicates no odin, but your explanation doesnt say so. (Open Odin, remove battery, hold down volume and insert usb cable)
what do you mean "onto my phone?" My Windows system has samsung drivers and OS X were both previously able to connect, use odin, etc. I don't know when it stopped working.
Yeah, odin doesn't work because the computer never detects that the phone is attached.

Sorry, meant computer.
What do you mean odin stopped working, your explanation doesnt say anything about odin as my edit in above post.
What I mean is that I used odin to install DL09. After that, I don't recall every attaching to my computer, but when I tried recently to install EB01, it no longer works. Sometime after flashing DL09, my phone is no longer detected by computer.
Im saying does odin detect the phone, not the computer.
You can odin the updated CWM (non orange) from here:

no, odin does not see the phone.

Are you sure Odin doesn't work?
Check USB settings on your phone. My rom gives me media player mode and mass storage mode. Don't have my cable with me to test if media player mode stays hidden from the pc.

Odin uses download mode with phone off.. What would this matter?

I was IRL with OP trying to solve this a few days ago. It's not that improper/no drivers are installed, the computer literally does not detect that there is a device connected to that USB port. lsusb on Linux turns up just the controllers and root hubs, and devmgmt.msc on XP does not show anything attached at all, even after a manual hardware scan. adb shows absolutely nothing. My Captivate does show up on all the same scans, regardless of the USB mode (Kies/mass storage/media player/what have you.)
He has tried this on multiple computers, so individual ports/USB controllers/drivers/OS bugaboos have been effectively ruled out.
My thought is that between your last flash, OP, and now, your physical microUSB port on the phone is damaged. If you no can haz insurance, I'd say you're SOL.
FYI: The phone does not say "debugging connected" when plugged into the wall. I think the my USB connector is damaged or something. I may consider seeing if I can get it repaired, or I may just wait until I can get a different phone that's better supported by manufacturer (and therefore by the mod community)

ODIN Problem

I really want to root my galaxy s and start trying out custom roms but odin doesnt recognise my phone when in download mode. When i reboot the phone a com port turns yellow straight away. Ive tried uninstalling the usb drivers and kies but its still not working.
Odin requires Kies or USB drivers and debugging to be off .
Com port yellow means Odin has found the phone .
Are you following the instructions that are basically load Odin load the firmware into Odin as Instructed .
Put phone to download mode then connect the Samsung USB cable .
jje
Yes I have the drivers and kies and tried with debugging on and off and I am also correctly following the very simple instructions.

Try another USB port
Tell us exactly which steps you are following and we can tell you if there are any mistakes.
BTW Are you using the original usb cable?. I bought a cheap usb cable in ebay and it is good for charging or transferring files, but it never worked with odin.
Ive tried 2 different computers. Im following the instructions for the cf root. i downloaded the file for JVO, extracted it and put the .tar file in the PDA section of ODIN. I then turned off my phone and put in into download mode then connected the phone to the pc with the cable that came with the phone. In odin nothing happnes. When i reboot the phone, a com port turns yellow. Ive tried connecting the phone first then getting the .tar file and still not working.
Before flashing the kernel you have to flash stock JVO rom with the pit, pda, modem and csc files.

This is a good beginning: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=723596
The cf root guide i used didnt say that i had to flash stock JVO rom
The path you should follow:
1) Install Kies. Full
2) Check if Kies sees ur phone normally. If yes goto:3
3) Open odin
4) Kill ALL kies processes.
4) put your phone into download mode
5) Connect USB. Odin should react. If not, try other USB/cable
6) Profit
Have Really done that all?
try install Kies last version
and odin 1.82 for Galaxy S (( GT-I9000 ))
and will be fix, ansallh
Kies recognises my phone and i have followed the other steps but odin still doesnt recognise my phone in download mode.
You mean that Odin recognises the phone in non download mode?

[Q] Trying to root with stock 4.4

I am trying to root my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 (well actually i would like to install a new rom and recovery) , but i am running into a problem.
Odin3 (v1.85) only finds my phone when i am not in the recovery mode (or the sideload to be precise), adb on the other hand is able to to do sideload but the loaded images fail with "Wront footer" and "verification failed".
Some Data:
AP: N9005XXUENA7
CP: N9005XXUENA2
CSC: N9005DTMENA2
Model: SM-N9005
Android: 4.4.2 (Stock, no root)
USB Debugging: On
Reactivation Lock: Off
USB Driver: Kies 3 (also tried the CWM Drivers)
If you have KIES installed it doesn't play nice with Odin, remove KIES or kill all KIES processes and try again.

Thank you,
i removed Kies and tried again, i still don't get "ID:COM" in Odin.
Sorry I should have said, once you uninstall KIES you remove the USB drivers, you need to install them again. Again, sorry should have said

No problem,
i actually installed the "SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones" Pack after removing Kies and doing the reboot stuff.
Still don't get the device via odin.
Maybe i will remove all the drivers and try the CWM Driver again.
Try a different USB port - Not sure why it's not showing for you

I tried different Ports (USB 2 and 3), different Cables and different drivers.
Removed Kies3, tripple check that debugging is on and recovery lock is off.
Still, Odin finds the device when it is not in recovery mode (sideload),
Was another user who had the same problem had to use another PC, I'm struggling to think of what may be the cause.
I had also the sane problem. I also tried all ports on my PC but did not work. I installed KIEs on my Laptop and it worked. I could flash the CWM recovery.

Put phone in download mode then with Odin NOT running, plug USB cable to phone. Finally ran Odin ( I'm assuming you installed Samsung USB drivers ).

I did this on a new computer that never saw an Android device before.
Odin does not detect my device despite following this advice and the one before.
I installed Kies, made my device known to the Windows Device Manager, rebooted, connected device while in sideload-mode and waited until detection was finished. The next step was firing up Odin3 v1.85 and my device didn't show up, but i was able to use the adb sideload which failed with "Verification Error" when installing a new recovery or rom.
Could it be that the phone being branded by T-Mobile Germany changed the game even though the model is just plain SM-N9005 ?
Is there another option to root this device or preferably install some other rom without Odin?
Never ran into so much trouble with my Asus eeePad, the Samsung I9000 or the HTC One X.

Well when stupidity strikes you...
I always went into the recovery rom (Vol+ & Power & Home) instead of going with the odin mode (remove battery, power device on with Vol- & Home & Power).
Thanks everyone who tried to help me, but you were no match to my blindness ^^
Maybe this might help someone who utilizes the search function after he or she didn't read the tutorials carefull enough.

Looks like whoever had it tried to flash a ROM or something and failed. You'll have to flash the stock firmware in ODIN. I recommend downloading MDL and MK2, because if by chance MDL works then you can get a full custom recovery and not be restricted as to what you can flash. This phone has a locked bootloader so flashing is not as straightforward as other phones.

What links can you provide that gets me the stock ROM, MDL, and MK2.
And thank you so much for the help.
Definitely try the AMDL image first like DeadlySin9 stated. If it is still on that version, you found a diamond in the rough. You'll want to keep it from updating afterwards if it is on AMDL.
AMDL is available from sammobile.com
MK2 is available from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2621279
I believe you will have to register on that site to download them.

My biggest problem is this, It will not reconize the usb when I plug it in the computer. I am a computer tech, I know about usb drivers for samsung. etc...Ive done the volume down, power etc where its in download mode, it doesnt reconize the usb. Is there a way to put this on a micro sd card and install it from there? Or do I have to do it from usb?
I would try downloading the Android SDK. It may give you the drivers you need.
Otherwise, try different cables (OEM is best) and different USB ports. Make sure you download the drivers off of the Samsung website. If there is a bad driver on your machine, ensure you are checking the box to delete the driver file when uninstalling.
Otherwise, there is another program called Heimdall that ignores the windows drivers, but I'm not well versed in that one.

What the biggest problem is, I can go to Device Manager and when I plug it in, It doesnt do anything at all. No indication that a USB device in the USB section. But I havent tried kies, I figured, if a unreconized usb device wasnt in the device manager, theres no sense in going any further. EX: I plug my mouse in, it shows up in device manager somewhere. The S4 doesnt at all.

If changing cable and different USB ports hasn't helped, then the USB port on the phone is probably defective and that's an entirely different issue.
EDIT: Also try a different computer if possible.
I know this thread is an old thread but I still wanted to share. I was recently working/ playing with a couple of Samsung Galaxy s4's ( sgh-i337 & sgh-m919). I managed to get the "secure fail: kernal, unauthorized software has been detected by the system" message. These days you hook the device to smartswitch and do an emergency recovery. What I did was hooked the phones up to z3x Samsung Tool Pro in download mode. After selecting the proper device, I clicked the option to read the pit file. After reading the pit file, the device restarted normally with no message. The first time I thought may have been a weird bug but I have replicated it 3 times and the same result each time. This happened after installing or having issues with custom recovery.
Hmm it looks like whoever was trying to install a ROM or custom recovery, forgot to use the Loki exploit.
You can download the MDL firmware from my Google drive here:

Odin, always "complete(write) operation failed"!

Whatever i try to do with Odin, installing twrp or cf-autoroot or even a stock firmware, i always get a "complete(write) operation fail".
What could be the problem?
It's a G900F from Poland, branded by the telecom provider "Plus", with a XXU1BOJ1 firmware. CSC is PLS. Reactivation lock off and usb debugging on.
Definitely a G900F? (Does it say G900F in download mode?)
Using a native Windows PC? (Not a mac?)
COM port lights up in ODIN when you connect the phone in download mode?
Using the latest ODIN 3.11.1 ?
Tried a different USB lead / PC ?
Yes me too. .today i trying flash stock firmware 5.0 frm m'sia XME but still not pass just say fail i using odin v3.10.6 window7.

Yes, definitely a 900f. I use a Windows PC with Vista, and Odin 3.11.1. The com port in Odin lights up blue when i connect the lead.
The blue progress bar on the S5 display lights up when the upload starts but doesn't reach any further than 2 milimetre, and that's it.
Haven't tried a different pc or lead as i haven't one.

Could try factory resetting the phone first from recovery
I'd definitely try get a hold of another USB lead
Try a different USB port too
And might be worth upgrading to Win 7 at least, COM port lighting up says the driver is working and can see the phone, but Vista is ancient and known for being buggy
I know you say it is definitely a G900F, but does it say that in download mode too? Just because this is the same behaviour that occurs when trying to flash a ROM for the wrong model S5, and a lot of S5s are incorrectly sold as G900Fs, they even say it in Android and on the box and sticker
Download mode can't be changed
Try from another computer. If that also fails, then I could only think of 1 thing. Your Galaxy S5's board is damaged. This happened to me back when I owned a Galaxy S3. When that happened, I did a little research and it turns out that in some cases of Motherboard failure, it will put the board in Read-Only mode, which will render and manual firmware flashing impossible. As it also turn out, the only solution was to replace the motherboard itself.
It could be other things, but if what I mentioned will not help you resolved your problem, a visit to an authorized service center could be your only hope in getting that fixed.

I uploaded some movies and other files from pc to S5 to see if file transfer is okay and there seems nothing wrong. Superfast and no errors or something.
If the lead or something else is faulty then the file transfers i did would give problems or not?
This is how the screen on the S5 looks like when i try to use it with Odin. The blue progress bar doesn't go any further than this.

Working perfectly for me
Solved.
At first i tried a Windows 7 copy but that didn't help either.
Then i looked at the back of my pc and noticed 2 different sets of USB ports, 2.0 and 3.0.
The lead was in a 3.0 port. Switched it to a 2.0 port and now it works.

I did try a different usb port but i sticked it right next to the 3.0 port, which was a 3.0 too.
I didn't realize that i have 2 different sets of usb ports.
