Try connecting your phone when its in download and try with Odin, if it recognize your device than just flash stock rom.

Try a different version of Odin first. For me only 3.09 and upwards works.

Install Samsung kies 3 to make the phone recognizable by pc and try flashing stock firmware with odin 3.09

First of all, you should download the drivers and stock rom from Sammobile.
Found the drivers here: http://www.mediafire.com/download/k93a92c9rpyg4r5/Samsung-Usb-Driver-v1.5.55.0.exe
(not sure if they work, go and ahead install them and boot to download mode, then see, if odin recognizes it)
Latest Odin download: http://odindownload.com/
If the drivers work and your device is connected to the computer(also boot into download mode) and odin recognizes it:
1) Choose bootloader, then search for your downloaded firmware.
2) Head to the options tab and tick "Nand Erase All", "Phone EFS Clear" and "Phone Bootloader Update".
3) Then hit start and wait it to finish.
It should delete everything on your phone, restore it like it came out of the box.
If the drivers don't work let me know, I'll search for other working ones.

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..

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.
My N900 Bricked

Hi,
I will have your thread moved to your device section.
Good luck!

Have you tried to flash a stock ROM from Odin in Download Mode? (not kies)

nope i dont where to download the STOCK and even the procedure
I would DL stock KitKat with this link:
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=33706
You might have to register to DL but sammobile is the only place I can find a decent DL for it.
Once it downloads unzip the file.
Download Odin 3.09 (you can find a free download everywhere).
Make sure your device is off, then hold vol dn and them power till it says to hit the button for download mode.
Once in download mode plug into your computer and if windows 7 or 8 let the drivers install fully.
If it does not find drivers then look for them manually.
Once you've got the drivers open Odin. It should be a green light on comm 1 or something like that showing a device is plugged into it.
Make sure ONLY F Reset Time and Auto Reboot are checked and nothing else.
Hit the AP button and find the tar file or md5 file you unzipped earlier.
Once it loads up hit start and hope for the best while it flashes.
Warning; read more about this before you try it. Once KitKat flashes do not try to downgrade, but read all about it.
I linked you to firmware for device SM-T231 so that had better be your device. Triple and quadruple check to make sure the file is the right one for your device...
Hope this helps.

You'll want to use ODIN to restore your phone to normal. Your computer will not recognized your phone as a USB storage device, but ODIN should be able to see it.
You'll need to find the correct ODIN files for your phone type (Tmobile, Verizon, etc and the ROM combo). If you just go to "http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5" you'll see different sections based on the service provider; the ODIN files will be in there somewhere.
Once you find the thread there will be accompanying instructions on what to do.

thank's for your reply .
I've experimented with many files ODIN. but any of them did not succeed !
and before this problem, No computer connects to mobile !
model phone : G-900F :crying:
download mode working? press all at the same time: vol down + menu + power button. then follow instruction (press vol up to confirm enter download mode).
once your phone on download mode then connect to PC. ODIN should recognize your phone n flash it. (i assume your PC has all driver installed and u have correct firmware for yr variant)
Don"t freak out.

Mohammed this thread is probably going to be closed. because again its not where it should be. so PM me if this isn't clear .
i wipe system every time i try a new ROM. so dont panic okay
whatever the issue with RECOVERY it doesn't matter if the odin mode or download is still reachable.
if u having trouble with PC recognizing odin mode on your phone. try to make sure u have both samsung usb and google usb drivers.
( NOTE: if it still doesnt recognized it try another usb cable. )

Help with brick

Hello
I have F version, country Italy
I tried install a few roms but I always had freeze screen and reboots. So finally tried restore from Odin and I had brick. I used the last firmware from Odin and one from this forum of "Fast download" And this only shows the bootimage and reboot again of freeze
In download mode shows in System: "custom", Recovery: Samsung Oficial
I cant enter on recovery mode
Im not sure if Samsung I still give me "warranty"
Anybody can help me ?
PD: sorry4myenglish
best bet is to try and flash another ROM if you can get into download mode still (making sure that you flash a ROM for the right version of your phone).
Samsung probably wont honor warranty as you tripped KNOX when flashing in the first place (that voids your warranty and I belive download mode states this)
EDIT:
the right version for you is the first link on the thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/s6-...icial-stock-roms-firmware-aoj5-g928f-t3231589
as long as you have the SMG928F version from Italy

well it might be a corrupt download, but theres no MD5 for the files form that thread to match.
Can you enter download mode? If so then I would probably flash a custom recovery and install custom ROM just to get the phone running again.

I just tried enter but only shows the message "recovery mode is senandroid enforcing" then shows (after 1 min maybe) the screen like a tv without signal
Some days ago I had exactly the same problem as you. You need to download "Smart Switch" on PC (something like samsung kies) and then recovery your phone through it. This samsung app will download a new system and completly repair your phone, after that if you want to install audax rom or something else you MUST go to developer options and enable USB DEBUGGING and OEM UNLOCK or you will have the same problem after rebooting phone.
Hope it helps, I bricked my phone for 1 day and managed to repair it with it. ODIN and all other stuff didn't worked.

That message means that SElinux is enforced and the way around that is a custom kernel as the stock on is forcing it always.
Natherul after I bricked my phone by installing audax and the unchecking in dev options "oem unlock" Smart Switch was the only one thing that actually unbricked my phone :good:

Just flash your firmware from Odin using a PC, I had a similar problem in my tablet, it didn't had download mode either and that worked, try it.
When I connect it to Pc it keeps bootlooping and pc gives sound of connecting then disconnecting of hardware.

Turn off your device, keep your finger in the button until the device is off or pull off the battery, connect it to the PC and flash your firmware through Odin, at that moment I used the 3.70 i think but you can use the latest version it's fine, that should install download mode and the whole firmware if that doesn't work I'm afraid I don't know how else I can help, that's what I did and it worked

You are right I did it the same way and it worked for me too. I actually was thinking the phone was quite dead bur or wasn't, I just flashed the recovery firmware 4.4.4 Russian and if you ask me food the step by step procedure it was just like this:
1. I started the Odin 3.07 and connected my device to see is it was detected or not, my surprise the Odin catch it, and shown added and the port number was 18.
2. I just pulled out the USB cable from my laptop and loaded the BL file only to just flash the bootloader file and see what would happen, I was trying it bcz I was totally disappointed with the device i.e. Grand Prime 530H Duos. I also noticed that my device was not stable even with that black screen it used to restart after almost five minutes in that case. And I knew that in 5 minute I will just be able to flash BL file. The BL file was loaded on the Odin now and I inserted the USB cable again while keeping the vol down button pressed to my laptop when the Odin again found and connected with my device, I didnot take any more time to flash BL file.
3. As soon as i had not flashed all the SW therefore, my device didn't boot properly, and I thought it didn't work but when my device was connected to the computer I just listened the startup tone of the Android 4.4.4. From that moment I knew my device was not dead now so i had to select all four files from the recovery firmware of 4.4.4 and connect the device to odin even there was no sign of download mode, as soon i clicked the Start button i saw many things in the Odin which were good enough to see. after the firmware flashed the device got started.

Now as far as knew the phone is on but showing nothing, I had to select all four files from the recovery firmware of 4.4.4 and connect the device to odin even there was no sign of download mode, as soon i clicked the Start button i saw many things in the Odin bar which were good enough to see. after the firmware flashed the device got started.

Hello guys! Could you please help me with the same issue? The difference is that Odin doesn't recognize when I plug in my phone! I don't know what else to do. It's a G530H.
Thank you very much!

Is your USB cable original is it working on other devices? And are you using a USB 2.0 port, that is very much necessary, for Odin and some other hardware/software environment applications. And you also must have Samsung USB drivers installed in your PC, you can also try all this process on some other PCs

Hello!
Yes, that USB works with other phones. And even not being the original one, it was working to transfer files before this issue...
It is a USB 2.0 port, and even when I go to "Device Manage" on Windows, it doesn't show any port with an unknown device or something like that...
Thanks!
