ODIN3 fails to root Samsung SM-G530W - Galaxy Grand Prime Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi people. I've tried searching several times before posting this new thread but can't find a solution.
Odin3 keeps failing to root my system. I've followed all instructions to the letter several times now.
This is the message I get in the log window
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
There is also a large glaring red "FAILED !" message staring at me. I've even tried "Developers mode" with USB debugging to no avail.
Any ideas ?
Thanks a bunch, Wally

Resolved
As I was wandering around in the Developer options on my I found the "OEM unlocking" tab and turned it on.
All is well now :good::good::good::good: , thanks.
Now I just have to figure out how to use my new root access.

Whiped user data, now getting problems

So I had my phone running just fine, with Unleash the beast, then I went into Android system recovery mode, whiped all user data and cache data. Now when I boot up, it starts from a clean install, except I'm getting non-stop errors saying Sorry whatever has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again. Then Force close, and they keep popping up one after another.
How can I properly restart from scratch and reinstall everything?
Thanks!

Two things, please read the stickies before asking questions or at least do a search and please learn that this does NOT belong in development. This is Q&A or general at beast.
but to answer your question, refer to this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=731989
Did you whipe it good !! But yeah seriously, 15 seconds of reading the stickies would answer all your questions.
I tried using the Odin3 Downloader. I installed the USB drivers, plugged in the microUSB cable, opened Odin3, entered Download mode, and clicked Start. Nothing happens, all it says is "<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 0)"

are you using the generic Odin3 tool that has a bunch of horizontal white squares across the top with several buttons along the bottom right that say things like "PIT", "PDA", "PHONE", "CSC"? if so, this is the basic Odin3 tool that can be used with whatever firmware you'd like (seriously read more before using it) as opposed to the one-click downloader I linked to which should just be two vertical rows of white boxes with only "START" and "MASTER CLEAR" buttons
Make sure you follow the steps in the order they are in. Also, you can try to uninstall and reinstalling the drivers, I've had to do this with Odin, it is picky about the drivers.

I am reading. It's the one click downloader, I installed the USB drivers, removed the SIM and battery, plugged in the phone, entered download mode, and clicked Start, all it says is "<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 0)".
It doesn't do anything which is what I'm having trouble with.

When you plug in the phone, does the computer make that "HEY NEW HARDWARE" sound? also, are you in download mode?
always open Odin before plugging in the phone... when you do, does the output box (where you see the <OSM> line) say something like <Added !!>?

Before it didn't say <ADDED> or anything.
I stopped using the one-click downloader as it doesn't work for me. Instead I used Odin3, installed the JM5 firmware.
PDA: I9000XWJM5
PHONE: I897UCJF6
CSC: I9000SERJM1
Now to install Unleash the Beast and Lag Fix.
What firmware should I flash to go back to the stock AT&T Captivate ROM?

umm JM5 is an i9000 ROM, unleash the beast is incompatible. Because of how the firmware works, your phone should essentially be treated as an i9000 and you should be looking in that forum on how to root and other things

[Q] Stuck with phone ! pc screen. Help?

I was using Odin to install [KERNEL] stock+Voodoo stable 5.x for Vibrant and something went wrong, I'm not sure what but now I am stuck with the phone ! pc screen.
Odin will not recognize that there is a phone there if I just start a download Odin tells me <OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 0)
In another thread (whose fix didn't help me out) I read
masterotaku said:
Because..... "Phone ! PC" is not a hard brick. I've "Phone ! PC" bricked my Vibrant dozens of times.
Glad you've recovered though. It can be a scary screen if you're not used to seeing it!

Are there other recovery techniques?
Did you get where it says Download Mode? If not, take the battery out, put it back but don't turn on the phone. Then open Odin load the pit files and pda. The next step with the phone off, hold the volume up and down the same time and plug the usb cable while holding up and down buttons and voila....you will have COM # showing up in your Odin and ready to flash again
Check here :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=810130&highlight=odin
dany865, following your instructions Odin did recognize that there was a phone attached. 0:[COM5] and I'm flashing the PIT and PDA from the thread you linked me to now. It's a slow moving process!
So slow that I swear it was frozen so I took and chance and closed ODIN, after all what was the worst that could happen I was already staring at a brick, and rebooted the phone. PRESTO, it was back to JI6.
I went straight to MiniKies and put 2.2 on that phone, then spent a bunch of time reinstalling applications and configuring ADWlauncher.
So far all I know for sure that was lost was my finely tuned setup, root access, and a month of SMS messages that were not backed up.
Thank you!
I you are gonna root I would highly recommend to get "Titanium backup pro". It makes the setting up process 10x's faster and has a tin of other great features.

ODIN All threads completed (succeed 0 / fail 0)

Hi all!
I just replaced my note 3 and tried to root using chainfire and odin 3.09 and then odin 1.85.
I've followed the directions listed here.
I keep getting "All threads completed (succeed 0 / fail 0)", and then of course nothing happens.
I've googled every combination of words but all i get is (succeed 0 / fail 1) or (succeed 1 / fail 0), but no hits on (succeed 0 / fail 0).
am I missing something?
thanks in advance!
steven.
if you have a custom recovery,just flash the flashable supersu and your device will be rooted.

Most likely you forgot to enable developers mode under the phone settings.
You cannot root the phone without enabling "developer's mode" and then
enabling "the "usb debugging" first.
Good luck!

But what output do you get from Odin? Do you see " reset " or "pass" in there, usually in blue and green colors respectively?
Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk
thank you, but I'm not even getting colors.
if I remember correctly the blue or green would be in the windows toward the top of odin, correct?
all of these windows are empty with no color.
below is the exact output in the message window:
<OSM> Enter CS for MD5..
<OSM> Check MD5.. Do not unplug the cable..
<OSM> Please wait..
<OSM> CF-Auto-Root-hltetmo-hltetmo-smn900t.tar.md5 is valid.
<OSM> Checking MD5 finished Sucessfully..
<OSM> Leave CS..
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 0)

thanks, I do make silly mistakes from time to time. but I made sure I had the phone in developers mode with usb debugging on.
any other ideas?
I'm not sure if this matters, but on a mac using CrossOver. I've used CrossOver since my S3. however I did just reinstall odin and the samsung drivers.
thanks again.
I had the same issue - "All threads completed (succeed 0 / fail 0)".
The root cause for me was that the USB drivers were not installed properly. Once the USB drivers for Windows was installed correctly (need to run Windows Update), the problem was solved.
any updates?
Updates see above posts

<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 0)

Trying to unroot my phone to fix the soft brick I ended up doing. Was following a guide here to root my phone and ran an update patch to fix some lag issues that happen because of the root (patch also from same OP). Now my phone is stuck in the failed to start correctly screen. Trying to use odin to go back to factory but I keep getting the message as the title of the thread. I don't have any ability to go into developer options to turn on USB debugger (though this should already be on), the other issue is, I cannot switch my phone from charging state to MTP. I think this is more so the key issue. Does anyone know how to enable MTP without having to have a usable phone? If this is not needed, how can I get my odin flash to work?

Boot into recovery (volume up, Home, and Power)and let me know what the build number is. It should start with G930V. I have a strong feeling that you probably flashed an old firmware that was listed in the root thread and it wouldn't let you downgrade. I can send you a link to the correct files to flash with Odin.
Also, if you can't boot into Android, you won't be able to use MTP anyway.

Need desperate help returning to stock URGENT

First of all I did the full unroot in Super SU, that didn't return to stock so now I need to find another way.
I grabbed the SM-G950U1 firmware from the switching carriers thread.
I booted into normal ODIN and but in all the files. BUT after I put in each file each said "Enter CS for MD5...", "Check MD5.. Do not unplug cable", "Please wait..", "Checking MD5 finished Successfully", "Leave CS..". It ends there and it allows me to put in the next one. I decided to ignore that and clicked "start" but it then outputs "File analysis.." and then "SetupConnection.." then stops there.
I then tried again same stuff as before but with the options you're supposed to select when rooting selected. It goes to "File analysis..", "SetupConnection..", "Initialzation..", "Erase...", then "FAIL! Model dismatch fail", "All threads completed. (succeed 0/ failed1)
I was in download mode for all of this
I'm also not sure what options need to be selected or if I need to be in download mode. I would really like to have this solved before school tomorrow.
All and any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks!
EDIT: I put in BL and it said "added!!" after is that good?

It will say added when you connect the phone. What it said at first was correct and how it should be. After you add all the files it should say leave CS after each one. Then when you connect the phone it should say added.
You needed to select OEM unlock and enable USB debugging in the phone developer options.
Then add all the files, connect phone and start. If it fails on setupConnection then try a different port and or cable.
If all fails try a different stock firmware.
