Why Odin keep failing

                 Odin is the safest and easiest solution for installing and flashing ROM for Samsung mobile phones. And what if you see fail message in Odin after installing a custom ROM or even stock ROM? Don't panic. It is just a simple user error. I just came across this error yesterday and I found out the solution.


So here is the solution,

First check the log displayed in Odin. If it is a connection error you may have trouble with connecting your Samsung phone. Make sure You installed Samsung USB drivers from Samsung official website.

Download Samsung USB driver official here

Your mobile is still in download mode.

If connection still fails change the USB port or change the cable.

If the log file  says failed to write the file/ partition it is simply because of one thing. You have another PC suit running. Try to uninstall Samsung Kies/ Smart switch/ Smart sync and restart Odin and do the flashing again.

If both solutions doesn't succeed, stop all antivirus/ fire wall software and try again.

Mot of the time running Samsung Kies / Smart Switch is the problem. It interfere with Odin connection.
