Anyone run into this? Did a search on the forum but got nothing...
This is what I am following
Step 1.) Open Odin.exe and plug a usb cable to your computer that will connect to your phone (do not plug it in to the phone yet, just the computer)
Step 2.) Hold down both volume buttons at the same time and while holding them down plug the usb into your phone. You should see a COM message show up in Odin.
Step 3.) Leave all check boxes the way they are. Do NOT check the repartition box.
Step 4.) Click the PIT button and select the 512.pit file
Step 5.) Click the PDA button and select T959UVJI6.tar and then click Start
This true?
STEPS:
1. Power down phone with no USB cable connected.
2. Once you see “good bye” connect USB cable.
3. Wait till battery indicator is visible, and you can see the current charge in green.
4. Hold vol+ and vol-.
5. Press power until screen goes black, then let go of power only.
6. Should see the yellow digger.
7. Once your in download mode open up Odin v1.3:
8. Uplug your USB Cable and plug it back in until you see a Green COM port show in Odin
9. Check PDA under Files [downloaded]
10. Press PDA button and point this to the .tar file extracted from the firmware update. (T959UVJI5(FUS).tar)
11. Press Start and be patient you will see progress bars on your phone and in Odin if all is working properly.

Whats the phone usb setting suppose to be? I've tried Media player, mass storage and samsung Kies with no luck.
It doesn't matter what your phone's USB settings are. You have to make sure you have the Samsung drivers loaded on your PC. And, you have to make sure you're in download mode. Here's the process the I follow (copied from somewhere on here I'm sure, sorry I can't give proper credit), it's worked for me every time:
1. Start ODIN Odin3. [Android + SLP], through ODIN select the .pit file from the ROM you want to flash.
2. Hit "PDA" button, and through ODIN select the .tar file from the ROM you want to flash.
3. Plug your TURNED OFF PHONE into the USB cable
4. Wait for the Battery/ charging indicator to start
5. HOLD VOL UP+ VOL DOWN+ POWER, as soon as the screen goes black RELEASE POWER, and continue to HOLD VOL UP+ VOL DOWN Until it enters download mode. Which should happen quickly and looks like a men at work highway sign.
6. If a COM port has turned Yellow in ODIN, then the device has been recognized. If it hasn't, unplug and plug your phone back in (I always have to do this).
7. Don't select any options other than what's set at default unless the particular ROM's instructions say otherwise.
8. Hit Start and be patient, it takes me maybe 5 minutes to get back up and running.
NOTE: If you do not see a blue progress bar on the phone's screen after a minute:
9a. Turn your phone off by pulling the battery.
9b. CLOSE ODIN
9c. Start at step 1 again.

Thanks a lot.
In my case the phone is recognised by Odin 1.3 only in recovery mode. When I get into a Download mode no yellow com message and I can disconnect and reconnect as many times as I want to no avail. And I have USB drivers installed and I can do "adb reboot download" as well. This is when I do all this with the phone off. When I do it with the phone on, it will be recognised by the Odin, but after I choose the pit and the rom and click the "Start" it will go int SetupConnection and then "All threads completed (succeed 0/failed 1)
Seems like I am having trouble even getting into the download mode the phone just boots up as regular, trying to reinstall samsung drivers right now.
now I am getting this
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 0)
grRRRRR
Yeah no matter what I do my phone just seems to boot into regular mode.

I had problems with ODIN my first time too. First of all, are you running windows 7? If so you need to download and install the correct drivers. There is a thread on xda with both the 32 and 64 bit drivers. Another thing, I have readwhat seems like a dozen different methods for getting into download mode, but only ONE has ever worked. Plug your phone up to your computer and wait for the battery charging icon to completely show up... THEN hold down both volume buttons and power on. Let go of ONLY the power button when the screen goes black. A few secs later you should be in download mode. As for ODIN not seeing your phone it really sounds like you just need the drivers installed. Make sure "usb debugging" is turned on in settings> applications> development. One other thing to note, once in download mode with ODIN up and running you MUST unplug your device from the usb then plug it back in. Once you do this ODIN should see your phone. Now you should be good to go! I hope this helps and good luck!
Tried that, tried this

No luck, this is really frustrating argh
I can get into download mode and my drivers that I have downloaded from Samsung site allow me to do adb shell stuff. So I assume that the driver is OK.
But no luck being recognised by Odin and only in the Download mode.
Really strange.

Yeah I am on 7 64 bit, installed the samsung 64 bit drivers. I will try this 2-3 times I guess. I hear some newer vibrants are locked from using hardware keys to get into download mode.... true?

Honestly I wouldnt mess with a hw locked phone . You should try to get it replaced . There is an adb command to get to download mode if you want to try that .

When I first used ODIN, it didnt recognize my phone either. After open device manager on my pc (windows vista), I saw that I was missing a Gadget Serial Control driver. I had a lot of trouble finding it, but read in an android forum that Samsung NPS was needed to use ODIN. I dont think that is true, but I installed it and found that I had all my needed drivers. JI6 flashed without a problem at all.
As far as d/l mode. I removed sd and sim cards. Have USB plugged into computer with ODIN opened. hold Vol + and vol - simultaneously while plugging the USB into the phone. D/L mode should come up automagically. If it doesn't, you will need to find the thread on how to go into it via ADB.
Hope this helps...
Another option is remove battery press and hold volume up and down plug in usb put in battery and the phone should go into download mode

If you're not using Odin3 version 1.3 you should give that a try. Seems more stable to me, others say the same. See forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=790026 (I can't post a working link since I'm a newbie here).
Odlin recognizes my phone no problem, I think its hardware locked "3 button issue" that prevents me to get into download mode. Now I need to figure outif its possible to get into download mode without pressing buttons.
Ok if you can use abd to get to download mode tar file has been created today that fixes hw locked phones Http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=802763&page=2

Try this I did and it worked to get mine booting after a bad update.
I messed around with it using several methods of getting it to boot into download mode until I finally got it to do it. I think I left it plugged into the USB, powered it down until I saw the charging screen, then I proceeded to play with the different ways to hold the buttons to get it to download mode. If you are persistent enough and read a little on booting methods to get bricked phone into download mode you will succed if not then your not for the world of trial and error... the main thing is do the first steps I said before until it works
1. Get into Download Mode (WITH THE PHONE PLUGGED IN) by following the steps below
*Turn off the phone until you get to the charging battery screen (keep in mind, your phone is currently PLUGGED IN)
*Press volume up and down, and power all at once.
*As soon as the screen turns black, release your power button.
2. Unplug phone from USB
or try
2. Remove everything from your phone (SD card, sim, battery).
3. Plug your phone into your computer WITHOUT the battery, as you have already taken it out in the last step.
4. Press and HOLD vol. up and vol. down.
5. As you are HOLDING these buttons, reattach your battery.
6. You should be in Download Mode.
7. Unplug phone from USB
any how try try try until it works
Once in download mode
Get your files together for your phone, and use Odin 1.85.
Plug into Odin and make sure it shows yellow and its added!
1. Now if your files have like 3 files and the exact .pit file for your phone
I found mine here
http://www.droidevelopers.com/showthread.php?11722-Download-OPS-amp-PIT-files
2. Click the PIT button and browse to your exact .pit file for your phone *It should now have added a check in the re-partition box under the options area of the Odin window. If not CHECK IT!
***If you don't have your .pit don't worry about this unless you suspect, or have a bad partition
3. If you have just 1 file just click the PDA button and load the file. If you have 3 then you will load the PDA file in PDA, the Modem file into PHONE, and the CSC file into CSC, there are way too many phones to link all the files so get you stuff together!
4. Now hit start.
5. When done and the phone shows the first sign of starting up IE Logo or whatever... immediately unplug the battery from the phone to shut it down.
6. Now put it back in and start it in Upload mode by pressing Vol Up, Home at the same time then the Power button.
7. As soon as the phone shows the first sign of starting up IE Logo or whatever let go of all buttons and using the Vol Up down Choose the Clear Cache option and go through and make sure you factory reset it if you can just for good measure.
8. Reboot
9. Now when the phone shows the first sign of starting up IE Logo or whatever take out battery again to power off
10. Now put it back in and start it in Download mode by pressing Vol Down, Home at the same time then the Power button.
11. Once in download mode Hook up to Odin again and flash it with a root kernel for your phone. Do not ask me just find it. I did it took time but I got all the files together over several days of reading and collecting the correct ones.
12. When done and the phone shows the first sign of starting up IE Logo or whatever... immediately unplug the battery from the phone to shut it down.
13. Now put it back in and start it in Upload mode by pressing Vol Up, Home at the same time then the Power button.
14. In most roots you will now have a advanced or mounting options and more options to use.
15. I cleared the Cache again, Cleared the Davilik Cache, Went into a option and actually mounted the cache formatted the Cache.
16. Use the option now to restart the phone...
And mine started up installed the apps and I am up and running, nice and smooth and no issues so far
I hope this helps out someone whos just about to go off the deep end, as I was there and patience and trial and error came up with this step by step way to recover mine. Thank me by hitting the little thumbs up THANKS button below this post.
And if your so happy your phone is up show your appreciation by buying me a Pepsi

For all you GT-i8190T owners I have made a public folder in my drop box with all required files to root your phone reliably
http://db.tt/O7Gn5gHb
1 Unzip odin
2 Use three button combo to put your phone into download mode, (turn off completely , hold home, volume down, and power - for those that don't know) press up I think it is to confirm download mode.
3 with device connected to Odin flash the. MD5 file in the PDA section (do not tick repartition)
4 after reboot connect phone to pc and move the update superuser to your external SD can be done before to save time.
5 turn phone off again. And then go into recovery, home+volume up+ power hold until the first screen comes up.
6 flash the update super user from your external SD.... Important it's external SD..
7 reboot phone enjoy you rooted stock GT-i8190T
None of the files are hacked or cracked there as the developer CWM and chainfire made them if you want a full version of superuser pay for it and support the developer this version does everything you need anyway

[GUIDE/FIX] {S4-MULTI} No Sound &/ WiFi &/ Bluetooth After Unbrick/Update? Read Me!
THIS GUIDE CAN APPLY TO ANY MODEL, PROVIDED YOU ENSURE TO GET THE PROPER FILES FOR YOUR VERSION!
I've had success myself flashing stock firmware from the M919V for Wind Mobile onto my I337M with no issue. This shouldn't be an issue. However, for the purpose of this guide, it is important that you get the firmware that was intended FOR YOUR DEVICE!
---
First head over here >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2559693 >> and check out the original thread that helped me get to this resolution. Thank you to all the lovely people there!!
Before my softbrick occurred, I had flashed the NE1 modem through ODIN. I found that the same modem remained regarldess of the firmware I flashed. So I thought to match them up and give it another go. This worked great. This will work even if it was a regular S/W upgrade or install that caused the no sound and/or WiFi and/or Bluetooth issue.
Quick note before we begin: this guide assumes that you already went through a softbrick and have successfully come back from it, or went through a software update/firmware install which resulted in the same issue. Some of the steps in this guide may be able to be applied to some parts unbricking a phone, but this is NOT the intention. The intention is to help recover sound, WiFi and Bluetooth AFTER a successful unbrick or failed update/install otherwise.
DISCLAIMER: I am not responsible for your phone melting, imploding, turning into maple syrup or dying. Follow at your own will!
PRE-GAME CHECKLIST:
- Determine the ORIGINAL FIRMWARE that came on your device (this one was important for me, not sure how crucial it may be for others) - to be honest, I'm not 100% sure how to figure this out other than looking at the phone's box. It should notate which software version (SW-VER) it is. Before doing this, I was soft bricked, and had to use the very original 4.2.2 software for my carrier to recover from THAT. So maybe this part wasn't as important as I think, but I wanted to mention it anyway.
- The ORIGINAL USB cable for the phone - I suspect any high quality ones would work, but the one that came with the phone is a no-brainer
- ODIN 3.xx (I used 3.09)
- Samsung USB Drivers installed properly
- NO SD CARD (to be safe - this is optional as it should not be touched throughout the process)
- DO NOT, under any circumstance, use a USB hub for this procedure. Make sure it's direct into your computer with no extensions. I also recommend a cable that is 6ft or shorter if possible, but the quality of the cable is the most important
DO IT:
1) Download the ORIGINAL firmware that came with your phone (if you weren't able to determine this, I'd say the most recent one should be safe to flash, unless you softbricked while on 4.2.2 or 4.3 - in that case I would stick with the corresponding version, though I'm not sure how it would be affected since I didn't run into this)
2) Extract the file (I use 7Zip) and ensure there is one .tar.md5 file as a result - do not extract again
3) Boot up the phone into Download Mode (PWR off completely, then hold VOLDOWN + HOME + PWR together until the warning appears on the screen - click VOLUP to accept and proceed)
---PHONE WIPE---
This part is optional but I highly, highly recommend it.
4a) Flash Philz CWM (you can find the file and instructions on how to flash it through ODIN very easily)
4b) After flashing, it usually reboots into recovery. If it does not, do so manually: turn off the phone completely (hold the power button until the screen goes black) then quickly press the VOLUP + HOME + PWR buttons. When you feel a vibration, release the PWR button but KEEP HOLDING VOLUP + HOME. Keep holding those two until you see the phone turn off and come back on.
4c) Make sure you close ODIN once confirmed the flash is done
4d) Tap factory reset and confirm it
4e) Once done, choose the clean ROM install option and confirm that as well
4f) Reboot the phone and continue on with the steps
NOTE: if there is anything to backup, now would be a good time to do this.
---
5) Open ODIN (IMPORTANT: In Windows, right-click and choose "Run as administrator" - this helped avoid an error for me)
6) Connect your phone directly to a USB on your PC and confirm that ODIN recognized it (it should highlight the first box and have "COM#" listed)
7) Click the second section (AP / PDA) and choose the .tar.md5 file you got in Step 1
***NOTE: ODIN may look like it's freezing or hanging here - IT IS NOT, BE PATIENT - it is a large file and it will take a bit of time to verify the MD5 for it
8) Click Start and sit back - it should take 8-10 mins or so (8:55 for me) with KitKat, and 5-7 mins or so with JB.
9) Your phone should have rebooted into a fresh Firmware. If you hear the Samsung boot sound, GREAT! You should be good (test WiFi and Bluetooth if possible) and you're done. Assuming that's not the case, which is why you're here, proceed to the next step
***If it's stuck in a bootloop, you need to force Recovery mode and do a factory reset. To do this, turn off the phone completely (hold the power button until the screen goes black) then quickly press the VOLUP + HOME + PWR buttons. When you feel a vibration, release the PWR button but KEEP HOLDING VOLUP + HOME. Keep holding those two until you see the phone turn off and come back on. Use the VOL buttons to scroll to the factory reset option, and choose PWR to select. Then confirm on the next screen. Once that's done, wipe cache in the same way. Then, reboot, again in the same way. Now your phone should boot up
10) Go through setup and then go into Settings > More > About device. Observe the "Baseband version" section, and see if it matches the "Build number" section (starting from I337 and onwards). IF THEY MATCH, then repeat steps 5-10. IF THEY DO NOT MATCH, continue.
11) Download the matching modem file - ENSURE that the version of the modem you download MATCHES EXACTLY with the "Build number" in your phone's settings. Flash the file in ODIN in the AP / PDA section (if you need detailed instructions on this, it's a snap to find in XDA or Google)
12) Once done, reboot into the regular OS and verify that the "Baseband version" and "Build number" sections MATCH. If not, try to flash the modem again. After this has been verified, go ahead and follow steps 5-10 as many times as necessary until you hear that beautiful boot noise! It took me twice.
All the best and happy flashing guys! I'm not too much of an expert, just very good at explaining things, but I'll try to help as I can with any questions!

I just tried flashing my Phone and now i think its bricked, ill explain
So I used this website https://www.naldotech.com/install-twrp-7-0-nougat-samsung-galaxy-s6-s6-edge/ to try and flash my galaxy s6 edge +, i downloaded the twrp file and odin, then i went to this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6/help/help-installing-twrp-sm-g920f-7-0-t3610005 and did these steps "1. Download TWRP: https://eu.dl.twrp.me/zeroflte/
2. Start Odin as Admin
3. Boot Device into Download Mode
4. Connect your S6 to PC (Odin should show "Com 1" for example)
5. Click on "AP" and then choose twrp
6. Deactivate Auto reboot in odin
7. Flash it
8. When its done, hold Volume Down + power
9. Directly after screen goes black, make volume up + homebutton + Power
10. Now it should be flashed "
and on odin it said this
in a big blue box it said "reset" and i didnt know what it meant so i held power and volume down then volume up, home and power and this is where my problem is. it keeps turning on randomly and showing the logo then turning off and when i try and turn it on it also does it. i just checked odin again and now instead of saying reset it says pass with a green box
Oh guys i just got into stock recovery i think im saved please help me what do i do now?
never mind people i got twrp on there i flashed an older version and now twrps working, time to get magisk
In the future just find your tutorials on here and go through the steps slowly and carefully
