Can't be seen and stuck in downloading

[smartbeatz]

Okay I was using Odin to root my but when I ran it my phone never rebooted. The only way it will turn on is by removing the battery and sd card, and plugging in the usb while holding 1 and power. This puts it into downloading mode. The problem is I can't get my pc to see it now. I have tried a few different drivers but nothing has worked. I restarted the pc every time but I still have the same issue.

I have had this issue. The way I have gotten around it was trying different usb ports and another time I uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers. Odin is a really picky program and if it doesn't like something it won't do what you want it to.

So my suggestions, try another USB port or try another USB cable.

Good advice... Another USB port and or cable... Even a different computer if available.

Odin will only reboot after its completed if you check the Auto Reboot box otherwise it just finishes the flash and gives you the "PASS" and just stays in Download Mode. Then you have to remove the battery and pop it back in to reset the device and boot up normally.
