    Hey jamesy55, welcome to our AndroidForums!

    I've moved your thread over to the all-things-root area for the S3 Mini since you'll get better views and responses over here.

    Cheers!

    Hey jamesy and welcome to the forum :)

    First, i think the problem with your developer options is that you haven't turned on the "on/off switch" at the top of the developer options menu (at least that was the problem I had with my last Samsung :rolleyes: )

    However, not having usb debugging enabled isn't the reason Odin failed. Odin and downloading mode operate completely independent of the operating system (if it didn't, Odin would have no way to reflash a phone if the operating system became corrupt)

    Now, i don't own your device, so I'm not really sure what did cause it to fail... Could you post the info that Odin shows when it fails?

    The reason it is greyed out is due to DEV OPTIONS being OFF, turn them back on! C:
