Do you have any idea?
:crying:

I had the same problem with this device... I had to flash stock rom with odin.
Just install kies and open it. Then reinstall usb driver through kies and then try flashing stock rom with odin, it will surely work. So good luck with that.

updating via ota isnt much good follow kies or stores

did you fix it? if yes how? I have the same problem

The best thing about samsung is Samsung Kies. There is a emergency firmware recover or something of that kind, I dont remember the name. Just install it and connect your device to it. It will try to recover your phone

go to a mobile center

Connection problem with almost bricked phone

Hello
I have a big problem with my note. today i wanted to change rom from imilka's AOSP ICS [IMM76D/4.0.4] to newest version of rocket. after flashing Abbys 4.2 kernel I missclicked to reboot button, after reboot phone got stuck and starting screen "Galaxy Note" I can even enter recovery, but can't do anything because if I try to move up or down then cwm got rebooted. Download mode works also BUT... The main problem is that after that fail with flashing I can't connect to pc. I tried with another cable/another pc/ reinstalled drivers and kies and still pc can't recoginze this device. any solutions? thanks in advance
If while flashing with Odin you receive an error message or got stuck on factoryfs the only thing you can do is to go to Samsung Assistance..

HELP: I bricked my Note 3 (N900). Forget to enable USB debugging before flashing!

I have just bricked my newly-bought Note 3 (N900).
I wanted to flash the latest version of Note 3 via Odin 3.08 (from 4.3 to 4.4.2). I made a big mistake as I didn't enable the "USB DEBUGGING" mode before go to download mode.
I clicked start in Odin and it show FAIL!!!
After I restart the phone all I see on the screen is the message "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again."
I tried to recover it through Kies, but the it shows the phone is not connected or not support. Meaning the Kies cannot communicate with the phone at all.
I also tries to flash in Odin many times, but it still fails.
Please!!! Can anyone here give me some solution.
Thanks.

I tried many time already, but still fail. I think because the usb debugging mode was not enable at the first place.
Thank anyway.

Usb debugging has nothing to do with it failing when you're using odin. Try a different version of odin.
A simple reflash via Odin 1.85 or 3.07/3.04 will fix it.

USB Debugging has nothing to do with odin flash, make sure while flashing below steps.
1. Update boot loader is selected in odin.(Edit:for single file not required)
2. Disable antivirus.
3. make sure note 3 drivers are installed.
4. kies not running in bag round.
5.Clear Factory Data & Catch before flash.
if all of those step fail..
try to flash ur rom on other computer or laptop

You've indeed saved my day... I've been searching high and low, installing various versions of Odin3, downloading tonnes of tar, tarmd5, zip, etc.!
Pardon me for my ignorance, but I never intended to root my cell phone in the first place. I was merely following what Kies suggested, "A New Firmware, Wanna Upgrade?" Oh, truly? Gee, thanks! And **** it, it screwed up my GT-N7000, saying "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue..." and my cell phone never saw the daylight again, regardless how I started it, factory-reset mode wasn't possible at all, only download mode could be started up. Tried with various methods of Odin3 on multiple ROMS, to no avail, until I read your short reply. BAM! (As you put it...)
Thanks a bunch, mate!
I have a similar issue with my sm n900. Lost my imei and baseband, i needed to flash a custom rom to get my baseband before working on the imei, after flashing via odin phone boots to samsung logo then goes blank. And recovery says E failed to mount efs . But i need to use adb on my pc. So how can i possibly enabe usb debugging in order for adb to find my device?
Flashing a stock ROM from sammobile.com via Odin does not require USB debugging. Flashing a stock ROM will flash everything, including modem, bootloader, and recovery.

[Q] Did I just brick my s4?

Hi, I have a rooted galaxy s4 LTE with android 4.3, and was going to update to 4.4.2 via odin 3.09, but during the middle of the installation, I heard a usb disconnection sound, and a red light saying fail appeared on odin. I waited a while, but nothing, and when I restarted my phone, I got that message "firmware upgrade encountered an issue. please select recovery mode in kies and try again" with some odin console messages on top.
I don't know why I can't recover with kies, nothing shows up on the list, and I tried to flash again with odin, using the same rom, but it failed.
what should I do?
I downloaded the official rom from sammobile.
thanks in advance

i had the same problem before! it was the usb ports in my pc ! i changed pc, i used my laptopt and everything were ok! just test another usb port or another pc using odin and original rom and everything should be ok! Dont panic ur phone is ok
remember always to run odin as administrator
hey! yeah, apparently it was those front usb ports, both of them weren't working properly, when I connected to another usb behind the computer it worked fine installing the same rom through odin.
phew!
thanks

:fingers-crossed:
You need to go to the at&t section on xda. This section is not for your phone.
Because you don't give any details about the Odin error, I can't help you further.
Most Odin errors can be solved by:
- Other cable
- Other usb port
- Other pc.

Help me please

ok so lets start with this. i bricked my phone. i tried installing a custom recovery on my galaxy grand prime SM-G530T and it wasnt exactly for the SM-G530T but for a galaxy grand prime so it bricked. now i cant go into recovery mode to wipe my phone or something. my phone isnt detected by odin, keis, ect. i can go into download mode but that doesnt really help me since odin cant even detect it. if there is anyone with a maybe solution please. thank you.
You install all the drivers for your phone in your computer?
If when you turn on your phone it says "Could not do normal boot" try pulling the battery and then putting back in and go into odin yourself. Might take thousands of times doe!
Or try heimdall and change the drivers to libusbk once you are connected using the program they package with it.
