So I managed to get connected to download mode over Wifi.
Can ping the watch when connected in download mode
So this might be the first step to get it Rooted as the older Samsung Phones were rooted etc with Odin in download mode.
Maybe some developers can have a look
Created a guest wifi which didnt require a key
look at the video below to see how to get it done :

So theres obviously some software that can flash the watches in this mode
Ok, but when you are connected over wifi, how do you send the files to the watch?

then download apps like Wifi File Explorer, and then send them through wifi, or you can just use your phone to create hotspot, and then use your computer to connect your phone, then transfer the file to your phone
Hello,
I have been using some release candidates of ICS which were available here on my i9000. Everything worked out generally fine. Sometimes my phone crashed and then it wouldn't want to go further than my i9000 and afterwards the google screen. Both screens would just repeat endlessly without the phone doing anything.
When this happened, I was always able to go back to recovery mode and uninstall everything and reinstall the rom. This would always solve my problem.
Now here is my current issue: on Saturday my phone crashed again, but now I can NOT enter recovery mode any more. Whenever I plug in a usb cable or normal cable to charge my phone it shows the calculating sign and after a few secs it's gone and starts all over again instead of showing the green battery slowly getting full.
The only thing which works is getting into download mode. So I tried to get odin to work. I installed kies to get the usb drivers and I opened odin (on both windows and a mac), but it does NOTHING.
Is there any other way I can reset my phone to get it somehow working again? Is there another way to get into recovery besides the buttons or using odin? I know of ADB but that requires the phone to be on....
When you plug your phone in (and enter download mode) what device type does windows detect it as?
Because you can get to download mode normally a "good" sign that it isn't bricked (and even when "bricked" it can be un-bricked)
Edit
Just tested mine, entered download mode and odin shows it connected on Com6, device manager shows it connected as a "Samsung Mobile Modem"
try and install the samsung modem drivers separately then try and connect connect
Hi,
first, be sure that all Kies-services are disabled via Taskmanager otherwise ODIN wont work correct!
then Bring your SGS1 to the Downloadmode, connect the USB_cable at the phone.
fullfill all sections you need in ODIN (PDA-Kernle, CODE-modem, CSC-CSC, pitfile512) klick repartition on
then connect your SGS1 via USB to the PC
Odin will show "connected"
Press start.

This is probably getting boring to some people now but i am having a major issue with Odin detecting my phone when it is in Download mode.
Once i connect the phone after loading up Odin and holding the 3 button combo, Windows installs 2 more drivers - USB Device and then Unknown Device. Then nothing, Odin just sits there and no yellow box glows or a COM port showing the phone is connected. I have tried installing Kies originally and using the drivers from that with no success, then i used the standalone driver packages available from softpedia and several other websites with no luck. What i can't understand is, when i connect the phone to my computer in it's normal state it has no problems and allows me to transfer files, access both the internal and external SD but shows as an 'unknown device' in the Device Manager when in Download mode... Why??!!
Somebody please help me!
Which rom are you using?
Also did you try this on some other PC/Laptop?

I have not tried it on a different computer yet, not sure if i need to considering it connects normally when the phone is on, just not in Download mode... I really don't know what's going on!!

Stock rom shouldn't have this problem.. you should either uninstall everything related to samsung from your computer and then start again or try connecting to a different PC.. you'll be able to find out whether this problem is just with the single system or not
I always run up Odin, then use the 3 buttons to get to download mode and then connect to USB port.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA
I had the same problem, then I finally got it to work.
Try this:
First off, you may need to try several different versions of Odin. The one I finally got to work on my phone was V1.85. you can find a collection of different versions to download here: http://droidangel.blogspot.com/2011/05/odin-multi-downloader-flasher-program.html
Next, Load up Odin. Plug in you phone to the USB port with phone powered on, remove the battery on the phone. While holding the 3 buttons down (Volume up, down & power) put the battery back in. Wait for the text to start to scroll, let go of the buttons. When it gets to the menu, unplug the USB, then plug back in. The yellow box in Odin should say it's connected. If not you may have to do this a couple of times.
Now this is the part I can't remember...I think what I did from here is chose the recovery option in the menu. Sorry I don't remember exactly what i did, I was a noob when I did it, and I think I got lucky.
I do remember that Odin would not flash it until I finally got to the screen with the picture of the android in the construction hat, or something like that.
Maybe someone with more experience can help with this part.
I had the same problem
The fix is: Use the USB JIG to get into download mode.
Update your PC USB driver for SGS1. Follow the OP on this link:

Hi,
I attempted to re-lock and then flash my i9305 yesterday with the latest firmware,
However, I must have done something wrong, but the Odinupdate failed and I now cannot enter Download or Recovery modes from a powered down state.
Instead, I am presented with Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. When I try to power up the device, all I see is this message "Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again."
Even though the handset doesn't boot up properly, Windows seems to detect it and the driver support kicks in but Kies and, ABD and the GS3 toolkit will not recognise the existence of the handset.
Is this now dead and irrecoverable or can I fix this?
I have checked out the usual links on here to see if I can get the handset to startup in recovery mode again.

Looks like I'll need to try a jig. I can't lose too much as they only cost 99p on ebay
Hi,
the USB Jig won't enter Download Mode if you can't do it with Vol Down + Home + Power
So i can get into download mode and connect to wifi.
Can this somehow help us unlock and root maybe?
Or what is download mode used for exactly?
