SM-T533 "Protocol initialisation failed" #297

Open seegwen opened 9 years ago

seegwen commented 9 years ago

Hi, thanks much for this software, Mac OSX (10.8.5) here. Yesterday I've compiled heimdall and heimdall-frontend from master and tried downloading the SM-T533's pit file, but I still get an error (heimdall-frontend output right below).

Initialising connection...
Detecting device...
Claiming interface...
Setting up interface...

Initialising protocol...
ERROR: Protocol initialisation failed!

Releasing device interface...

Any help would be appreciated. And if you need more infos, I'll be glad to provide. For now I've used Odin in a VM to do the task at hand.

Please provide --verbose --usb-log-level debug output in a gist.

Here you are: sm-t533 heimdall error

I should add that the error I got for debugging is not the same as the one I initially reported.

Seems as that's a different error than you got last time. I suggest you try a different USB port and/or cable.

i tried with every usb port I had available, which amounts to 2, and the cable is a stock, brand new one from samsung. I also tried with a camera usb cable, and got the same error.
