My OS is ubuntu. I want to root my phone: Galaxy Ace 3 (gt-s7272). All methods do not work cause more oneClick or easy tools made for windows which I do not have and their linux versions not work in realty like superoneclick. so I am doing that manually as this threat says:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2684210
I am in step 8. I boot phone to recovery mode but linux can not connect to phone bcz it is in MTP mode. Also linux can not recognize phone in donwload mode at all. But out of recovery mode it works fine.

Odin can't detect in dowload mode

I wanted to root but odin can't detect in download mode....everything is fine when the phone boot (it says COM3)....Kies is installed and it can see the phone....
Anyone knows the reason - this is first time - i'm trying to root the phone (new phone) :angel:
Enable usb debugging on your phone, close Kies (also in windows tray manager) on your pc, open Odin as administrator and connect your phone through usb in downloadmode. That should work usualy.
USB debugging is on (it was by default), i killed through task manager eveything with kies....still the same....
Odin sees when the phone is on (says added) but in download mode nothing - can it be something with phone (with download mode)?
Baseband version: N7100XXALIH
Build number: JRO03C.N7100XXALJ1
Kernel 3.0.31-259982
Android 4.1.1
Odin is v1.85
EDIT: It was my fault because somewhere on the internet says download mode was "up" button+home+power instead "down" button+home+power.......

Phone not recognized by PC after root (but still rooted)

So here's the story:
1) Phone worked flawlessly before root. Did an OTA to stock 4.1.1
2) Flashed CWM with Odin v1.85 --> removed battery --> worked without issues
3) Applied SuperSU v0.87 and this didn't go without issue. While in CWM before the reboot, there was some extra prompt (I have rooted a S3 before and did not receive the prompt) however I cycled too fast and I don't think I hit the right option. The phone rebooted anyway and I had root so I didn't think anything of it.
4) Wanted to add files to my SDcard a couple of days later and the phone didn't show up in My Computer (yes USB debugging is enabled, tried all USB ports, changed cables, uninstalled and reinstalled Samsung drivers, I've never used Kies to do anything with my phone - disabled it from the start)
I thought I should revert to stock and start over so I booted into recovery and CWM wasn't there anymore but I still had SU access. I installed Mobile Odin and placed CWM (the .tar file) on my internal (Placed on SDcard --> moved with My files to internal) and flashed CWM and while I didn't see any errors, now I'm data wiped/factory reset but I still can't boot into CWM, I still have SU, and my phone is still not recognized by my computer.
Anyway for me to fix this issue?

Reload the samsung drivers on the computer and boot into download mode. After loading the root66 version via odin download Rom manager from the store and load cwm.
Sorry OP but I does anyone know a way to connect to a PC without install the samsung drivers? I'm asking because I don't have permission to install anything to my computer at work. I've tried this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1711009
and this https://play.google.com/store/apps/...9pZC5tdWx0aW1vdW50c2RjYXJkLndpZGdldC5mcmVlIl0.
but still no go. They all treated my SD Card as CD drive which can read only. Any input is greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the quick reply and I apologize if I wasn't clear but I was attempting to use Mobile Odin (my first time) because my phone was not being recognized by my PC and thus desktop Odin wasn't working either (even after reinstalling drivers and booting in download mode which I tried before posting).
However, I did find the answer eventually. If people have problems losing CWM after root, the error I made was not extracting the image file from the .tar before flashing with Mobile Odin. I eventually returned to stock but that didn't solve my PC not recognizing my device until I found this:
1. Uninstall any previous instance of Kies/USB driver
2. Download the latest Kies, specific to your S3.
3. Download Samsung USB drivers 1.4.6.0 (I've tried newer versions but they all failed)
4. REBOOT
5. Disconnect from internet (VERY IMPORTANT!!! - forcing Windows to install local drivers ONLY)
6. With the phone disconnected, install Kies + USB drivers downloaded in steps 2,3
7. Connect the phone and let Windows install the drivers.
8. Reestablish the internet connection.

I didn't bother with Kies and obviously used the latest Samsung USB drivers. Problem solved!
Perfect.
Sorry if I sounded a little short. I am glad you found the solution.

Probably best if you ask in your devices forum if you think it had to do with how you rooted. They'll be more familiar with it and any problems that can occur.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/s7582
The only thing I can say is to uninstall kies, install standalone USB drivers (try both the latest and the older version released for your device on Samsung's site), reboot pc and phone and try to connect again.
Good luck!

[Q] Samsung Galaxy W Download Mode USB Problem

Hi guys !
I rooted my phone and then tried to setup some roms. But when I try to go in the download mode, it says "Downloading... Do not turn off the target" but on my computer, it cannot recognize the usb. I setup the usb drivers, tried another ports and there is no problem about my usb cable. It works normally, but whenever I go in the download mode, this thing happens and I cant continue to Odin. Does anyone know anything about that ?

When you install custom ROMs, you need to go to recovery mode ( Volulme Up + Power + Home ), not to download mode

You can install it easily if your phone is rooted just
-put the downloaded recovery.img in /mnt/sdcard
-download & install "Terminal Emulator" in play store
-open it then type "su" and click enter
-allow root access..
-then type "dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p13" then click enter
-then some text will show in bottom
-exit terminal..
check the recovery by turning off the device then turn on with volume up botton, home button, and power button pressed together..
until "Galaxy W" screen shows up, release the power button only.. then you will enter CWM

What version of windows are you running, it couldn't work on windows 8 and 8.1 so i installed 7 and all the drivers for the phone and it works, i dont have the phone now but i do beleive that will, anyway... if you have bootloop that means you are still able to pass the bootloader screen right?? then try to go to recovery and flash roms from there, having an sd card would help transfering roms from pc directly to phone....
Reply again if you need some assistance.. I'm not online very often

i have windows 10 pro.
yes, first the samsung logo apears then the galaxy W logo.
it stays 1 or 2 minutes on this galaxy W logo screen then it reboots.
is it even possible to flash it with the original bootloader from a sd card?
and would the original bootloader detect this type of image (.tar.md5) ?
Thank you for reply

You can try putting any custom rom and flash from a custom recovery if you can access it, if not download the stock rom and get a windows 7 pc. make sure you install all the samsung drivers ( kies should do the job ) and try flashing it from odin

Download mode Windows 8.1 10
To connect your phone in download mode on Windows 8.1 and 10 you need to apply this registry file (in my attached zip file).
Mirror Link
It happens for most old phones.
More Info: https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/us...ows-8-0-but-fail-on-windows-8-1-with-code-43/
Also note Odin3 (the one which is used for newer phones) doesn't work for Galaxy W! (Use Odin Multi Downloader.)
--------
Update: It seems that this registry key isn't needed. Make sure to connect the USB cable after downloading... screen appears. If it wasn't recognized try disconnect and reconnecting the USB cable or try other USB ports on PC till it gets recognized.

still doesn't work for me, can you please post the drivers you are using ?
If you see the USB device is not recognized error it's not a driver issue.
Windows automatically downloads the drivers through Windows Update. BTW here are the drivers:

Half-bricked galaxy w. Help needed

My Samsung Galaxy W has a lot of problems currently and I want to flash back to stock ROM.
1. I can only boot into download mode
2. I cannot boot into recovery mode
3. I cannot boot up the phone
4. Odin cannot detect my phone while in download mode
5. Windows also states that "USB Device not recognized"
Any solutions? I can only boot into download mode on my phone but my pc wouldn't detect it.
1. Tried reinstalling drivers from multiple sources
2. Tried rebooting my phone
3. Tired rebooting my pc
4. Tried all available USB ports on my pc
5. Tried the other 5 phones I have and it worked perfectly fine
Use Odin and flash a recovery.

If You're running Windows 8 and above, it does not support the Samsung USB protocol, with no workaround as of now.

Problem with Odin on VirtualBox

Hi, I know that this thread isn't about Galaxy Tab 3 but I need Odin for that tablet. So, I'm using Linux Mint operating system now and Odin isn't released for Linux. I tried to use Jodin 3 but when it creates .pit file and restarts my device I get back into Download Mode but Jodin doesn't recgonize my device anymore. Tried Heimdall but I don't know how to use it. So, I tried VirtualBox. I Installed Windows XP there, installed Samsung USB Drivers and got others thing I need. Booted my tablet into download mode, connected it to the PC and Odin recgonized it but, when I wanted to flash TWRP Recovery I chosed it into AP and click start it shows me bluescreen and restarts my virtual machine. I don't know what to do...
Fixed it myself, just installed Oracle VirtualBox Expansion Pack and in the USB settings I chosed "USB 2.0 (ECHI) Controller".
I had the same question...answered now lol
