Odin Fail. Could use some ideas...

---

So, I went through the instructions and odin told me flash failed, the phone reported back that it had no partition structure in the download screen. Now the phone is stuck at a completely black screen regardless of what I do. Odin wouldn't recognize it at first till I tracked down the missing driver (Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008), now Odin picks it up again but never moves past <ID:0/003> SetupConnection.. Any ideas? I can't seem to get it to take any flashes whatsoever... I'm currently trying various drivers to see if that is the issue...

are you putting the phone in download mode before you start the flash process?

EDIT: why did you make a new thread for this here when you already asked the same question in another thread? This isn't development talk please use proper forums next time thanks.

that should fix it

Mainly because I didn't want to highjack that thread. Regardless, I felt this was development related hence the post in this forum. Yes, I've put it into download mode (vol up+down+power)

That was actually my first idea. I haven't been able to even attempt this yet though, my issue is that Odin will not progress past "SetupConnection".

It sounds like you don't have all the drivers....

Yea, that was my first thought as well. Would you mind putting yours into Download Mode and checking to see which driver it uses in Device Manager? I'm sure that would be a great help!

Install Samsung Kies & that will give you all the correct drivers. You can find it by doing a google search.

I actually installed the kies package before I initially tried flashing. I've tried just about every driver package I can think of now.... Random errors are frustrating, especially since its beginning to look like I need a jtag to fix this. I really don't wanna have to build one again.

its not volume up and down plus power. Its pull battery, hold volume up and down, insert usb and then put battery in. a screen will come on the phone that says its dangerous to do this press volume up to confirm. Then make sure phone is recognized by odin and id.com space in odin turns yellow.
