Flash stock rom via odin
make sure you have samsung usb drivers installed
go into download mode (vol down home button power button)
connect phone to pc via usb cable
push volume up to start connection
open odin
put pda in pda
modem in phone
csc in csc
start

you cant get into recovery because you have flash a kernel incorrectly or a kernel that is not meant for your device

[Q]Device manager won't discover phone in download mode

Hello , so i have GT-I9500 galaxy s4 phone, I did root this phone before and flashed it once with odin without having any problems , now i have an ECHOE rom with official android 4.4.2 installed , so the android lollipop came out and i wanted to flash my phone again with odin i installed all the required drivers thousand times so it's not a driver problem , when i got my phone into download mode odin \ kies wouldn't even recognize it , my pc won't even beeb or anything would pop up, my phone works great while it's on and odin recognize it (i can do the trans fare thing and open my phone's files on my pc) and when i go to device manager it shows me nothing about the phone no unknown devices either even though i unplug and plug my cable (while download mode ) the device manager won't refresh , I thought this problem is because the pc itself or the cable as your thinking right now BUT NO because i tried another galaxy s3 mini phone with the same cable and the same pc and guess what ? odin recognized it while on the download mode (it's stock though ) , i even tried it with different computers, cables , all usb ports and still doesn't work so the problem is in my phone and all of this happened after flashing my android and rooting it , i checked the hall internet for a fix someone on youtube said i should remove the battery , well i removed the battery while download mode , the pc catched it , installed some drivers and odin recognize it but when i try to flash the firmware (AP thing) it stops and says there is no partition , when re put my battery (while download mode) odin immediately say that the device is removed , even if the problem could be because the ROM i need odin to flash the stock firmware , my screen (while on the download mode) shows me that the current binary : custom , system status : custom , knock warranty void : 1 , AP SWREV : A3 ( Before and after the Unroot) So is there any way to fix my download mode (no data wiping preferred but no problem if i must wipe ) ? or even is there any way to flash my stock firmware without kies\ odin\ download mode ? (no data wipe preferred but it's ok ) so who's gonna help me please ? you would be my HERO :highfive:

Hi mate
Odin troubleshooting: If Odin accidentally gives you "fail" try the following:
- Repeat procedure.
- Make sure that all actions of Kies are disabled from task manager.
- Change usb port.
- Try another usb cable (make sure it is the original).
- Try another Odin version.
- Uninstall and re-install driver.
- Use pit file.
- Try another computer.

Thx max 404 for your reply but I tried everything you said as I said in my Thread

My phone is dead but odin recognize it.

Hi, my phone was rooted(kingroot) and working but all of sudden the screen went black today (while I was browsing, no recent changes to OS or internal/external apps). I was trying to update the firmware using samsung smart switch yesterday (unsucessfullly) and it was working for hours after that as well. When connected to a pc using usb there is just the connecting sound. Samsung smart switch says connecting to device while the log in odin says added. I looked for a complete firmware but I could not get one with a decent server and I have a slow internet connection to download a 1.2 gb. Is there any way I could restart my phone using odin? I haven't used odin ever. But I think if I'm able to restart my phone, it would just work.
My model is Galaxy E7 (SM-E700H)

Did you try Home+Vol down+Power button for few seconds??

Actually your mobile gone dead but you can recover this. First download original stock rom for your mobile. Always remember your mobile model no. check setting and about device and check model no. After this download your original stock rom from XDA forum. I check. After download Unrar this file. This file size is 1.5 GB so carefully download. After this PRESS Volume - & Home Button & Power button Combined.
Your mobile boot with download mode, Continue Press Volume + , After this Open Odin 3.09 and Connect data cable with pc.
when you connect data cable to pc OdIN left side upper panel colour change then select AP (tick only auto reboot and F. Reset Time only )and Choose your download stock rom and Press start. After some processing Odin show complete or finish message. Then remove data cable and boot your mobile. Now your mobile is on as per usual.
REMEMBER ALWAYS tick only auto reboot and F. Reset Time only when you use Odin 3.09. It is necessary
BE CAREFUL IT IS YOUR OWN RISK AND BEFORE THIS YOUR MOBILE BATTERY MUST BE 60% OR 70%
once you complete all thing confirm me

If you want to restart just hold power button for 10 seconds.

Help!! I bricked my grand 2 :*(

can anyone help me with my problem?!...
earlier today, i tried to upgrade my grand 2 from 4.3 to 4.4.2 via odin.
I downloaded all the required files and started the process, i got my phone into download mode and plugged it in my pc (i used a cheap usb cable) and pressed start.
after 30 seconds it stopped and failed the upgrade.
i tried to flash it again and it was the same.
now my phone won't even boot or charge or enter download mode.
PLEASE HELP!
sorry for the long post.

Its ok brother...it happens...and i dont think so its becuz of cheap usb cable i think its becuz ur ROM was not properly downloaded!
Now as becuz u cant go to download mode...try going to recovery and reset your phone ! if you get successfuldo that...i think you'll be able to boot to download mode #likemypostifyoufeltok

S6 lite malfunctioned and now does nothing.

History:
I have a samsung tab S6 lite LTE version. The tablet freezed out of nowhere when I was working and restarted but stuck in bootloader. After a while, and after removing the sd card, the tablet functioned properly. The tablet had more 80% of battery charge.
I thought the new update might fix the issue. I installed the update. it restarted and stuck in bootloader again. Power and Volume Down buttons will restart the tab, but it never went past the bootloop.
Left it for 12 hours without charging, and then the tablet went into recovery mode. I wiped the cache and when figuring out the other options in recovery it switched off and did nothing. When connected to a charger, a circle with lighting icon showed up. No combination of buttons worked.
Took it to the service center, and was told the motherboard needs to be replaced. I knew it was a software problem so I came home without replacing the motherboard.
I put the tablet on charge for a while and pressed volume up and down button and connected it to the computer. The tablet went into download mode. I immediately downloaded Odin and stock firmware and tried to flash only the BL file to the tablet. It failed few times, maybe because of faulty cable. I used another working cable and tried to flash the full firmware and the tablet disconnected again from the pc.
But now the tablet showed "an error occured while updating and use smart switch for emergency recovery". Smart switch on pc did not detect the tablet, but Odin did. The device manager detected the device as samsung mobile usb composite device. I used a new usb cable and flashed the stock firmware using Odin. The process was success but the tablet died.
It does nothing when connected to a charger or pc. No display and no buttons worked.
I opened the tablet by removing the display, and disconnected the battery physically. But nothing happened.
I tried several times to connect to pc, and for once it was detected by the pc.
This time I flashed the stock firmware using odin with nand erase and repartition. extracted the pit from csc file and added it to Odin.
The flash was a success but the tablet remains unresponsive. I checked the display to see if I had cracked or damaged it while opening, but it is good.
Now Sometimes, the tablet gets detected by pc as samsung mobile usb composite device and I could even flash the firmware with success. But the tablet displays nothing and is unresponsive.
Can Anybody advice What I can do now?
PS. I used the correct firmware meant for s6 lite LTE version every time I flashed.

Disconnect devices from PC USB port & uninstall official Samsung USB drivers. Reboot & re-install drivers. Connect to another USB port preferably at the rear PC.
Flashed latest Android 10 instead of the latest Android 11 stock firmware (AP *super.img.tar file ONLY) using Odin (I used official Odin3_v3.14.4) with Auto-Reboot, Nand Erase and Re-Partition. Input *.pit file. Flashing process might take 'years' but be patient until it ended & auto boot up successfully. Try another USB port if it failed. Therafter, flash the rest of stock WITHOUT Nand Erase & ONLY Re-Partition, Auto Reboot & F. Reset Time.
Once it successfully got flashed & auto reboot, wait patiently as it might also take a longer time than normal to boot up. Charge the device to optimal. Done!
Optional (Remove Knox Guard)
Connect to the internet. Login to your Google & Samsung account to update everything & reboot upon further updates. Thereafter, boot to Download Mode & flashed AP (Magisk Patched *boot.img, blank *vbmeta.img & patched *vbmeta_samsung.img) + BL (Blank *vbmeta.img) WITHOUT Nand Erase & Re-Partition. After successful boot up, reboot back to Download Mode & ensure there's no 'KG State' on the list before deleting('root delete' not ADB) Knox Guard or app named Payment Service as in Android 10.

Thanks. I will try.

By chance is it going to work for KG:Locked status device? I'm on F62, i bought this (second hand) few days ago from another city. Tapping on build number doesn't give any response, When i try to flash any firmware I'm getting response "All binaries are not allowed to be flashed" I'm pretty much confused what's happening here
