I am running this on my work Windows XP machine and it is stuck on Waiting for Download Mode device. My device is in download mode and the last line in the log is:

Attempting to write C:\DOCUME~1\(username)\LOCALS~1\Temp\hcazz300TEMPCASUALC98EDA2A\heimdall.exe
File verified.

The green bar on the bottom right is not moving. It shows my device is connected. Help, please.

Windows XP requires a different version of zadig, ever since the Win8 DDK was released (circa Nov 2012). You'll have to have two different driver installers if you want support both Win8 and XP

Where do I find these versions?

I don't support XP. In fact, when installing drivers I have a warning to the user that its not supported and mentioning that the OS is 13 years old. I will not support XP. Switch to Linux. Running XP is a security hazard.

Windows XP:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/libwdi/files/zadig/zadig_xp_v2.0.1.160.7z/download

Vista/7/8:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/libwdi/files/zadig/zadig_v2.0.1.160.7z/download

I'm not sure this will fix the problem, but it's worth a shot.

When your phone goes into download mode run Zadig, then from Options select "List All Devices", from the drop down select "MSM8960", and then click install. Once the install completes, Heimdall should see your device.

This worked for my Windows 8 64bit computer. Thanks.

Do you have any answers for my above post?

I know I should be patient... but I'm ready to root my phone! This looks like a magically easy way to do so on my MacBook... so, I'm anxious! LOL

I do have an Acer Netbook that I could try this on though. It's just pretty basic, so I hate doing anything on it other than have my kids use it for school and online games.

We'll be working on CASUAL this evening and I'm sure he'll be updating the OP with new builds when they are available.
Other than the driver, its pretty cut-n-dry on Windows, you can always try it on the netbook

Word. We will be ready soon. jrloper has reworked the driver system with his CADI app. So we have some good changes for Windows coming.
I've actually been doing development on CASUAL using the GS3 root as a primary test script.

maidmarian4 · Apr 4, 2013

Thanks guys! I'll try out the Netbook and let you know how it goes. I'm still willing to try my MacBook when it's ready for that, just so you know if it works.

Success!

I ended up using my Netbook. Here's my stats and experience.

Acer Aspire One D270-1410
Windows 7 Starter
AT&T SGS3 with Jelly Bean.

Casual wouldn't recognize my SGS3 until I installed the driver package from the Samsung website.
I restarted my laptop after installing the driver package.
Ran Casual.
It pulled up Zadig (very nice, informative screen btw).
(*This part isn't helpful. My brain is blank, and I can't remember what it said specifically. But, if you ask me, I could probably easily verify it if it's said. The informative screen wanted me to click on something. But, it wasn't displaying the option requested. I still selected the one that was like it, and clicked on the tab. It didn't do anything. So, I clicked on something else, and that worked, so I exited out, and Casual continued.)
Then, it wanted me to download something with a C+ I think? I did that.
Everything else went through, and now I have a device w/ superuser on it.

Thanks! Really this was the most professional rooting application I've used. Not to mention that I loved the direction screen that came up with Zadig - and on the Casual screen as well! I didn't realize that it was showing directions until right before I exited out of Zadig.

Hey thanks for that and i have a question. All of my ports say disconnected and thats why none of my usb/sdcard ports are not working at all with anything. How do i re enabled them? They all say no on connected and the 2 USB root hubs have unknown for their device type and Generic USB hub has a blank for device type and i don't know what they mean but i know nothing will work on my usb ports or sdcard is there a way to re enable them?
