[Q] Usb Device not recognised - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey,
Updated my phone with the Nordic firmware when it came out and all was well.
today I tried to connect my phone to the laptop with the usb and the title error keeps coming up. I can't do anything pc related with the phone now. The phone LED comes on when plugged in but the menu doesn't show up on the phone.
I havn't changed anything vital... or at all. I factory reset the phone but that hasn't changed anything.
Any help on how to fix this will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Edit: Tried Reinstalling Update Service and PC Companion. No joy.

Did your friend use the same cable that you were using when connecting to the pc?
EDIT: Have you tried resetting the phone as well?

tried two different cables.. both of which work with other phone... yet the ony charge with mine... its doing my head in!!!!! i dont even get the USB not recognised error now... it just charges when connected to latptop

The connector on your phone may be damaged, is there anyway you can take a good look at it and compare it with your friends? Try to jiggle the connector when your connecting, or hold it firmly with an angle to ensure connection on the pins.

[Q] 2.1 Nordic to UK without PC

Is it possible to change firmwares without the aid of a pc?
Although I can charge my phone via USB in the main and Laptop. It will not recognise on the laptop so i can't you flash or nothing.
I get to th point were it tells me on the update service to hold the back button and plug in the USB. I do this and the Green LED goes on but nothing changes on the Update Service on my laptop it still tells my to put it in flash mode.
Even in normal conditions the menu on the phone asking me if I want to mount my sd card and the message that saids "USB debugging is on" or somthing doesn't even show up yet it charges...

no, it has to be via a pc......i would try uninstalling all SE software from your laptop, rebooting and reinstalling it. it sounds like a driver issue but could really be anything.
good luck!

could actually be the cable also....i have 2 types of micro USB cables here, 1 has Power only and the other has Power+Data. i dont think you can physically tell the difference but the Power+Data has extra cables inside it for data.
using the power only cable i cannot connect to the phone at all via pc but it will charge from your pc/wall socket/car charger/etc.
probably worth checking - it did my head in for a few days
@Z3X, are you using the USB cable that came with the phone?

X10i Wont recognise Any PC ?!?

Hey guys,
I have been looking evryone for this problem and cant find the solution, hell i even asked my Provider but they couldnt help me either.
In a nutshell my X10i (Android 1.6 Vodafone) Wont recognize my PC (windows Vista latest, 32 Bit).
I plug in the USB cable and it wont show a usb connected in the notification bar, however the notification light turns green.
When i try to connect my device to PC Companion it wont register the phone or locate its there.
I even tried to update the phone using SEUS but it wouldnt recognise it whilst in the "hold back" menu.
I have already tried these but they havent solved the problem;
-uninstall SEUS and PC Companion
-Reinstall SEUS and PC Companion
-change USB ports
-Change USB cable
-Checked and Unchecked USB Debugging
-change computer (still no help)
-I cant find anything in device manager
The problem seemed to have arisen when i reflashed the phone, using SEUS Repair, because i had forgotten the patern lock.
I really want to flash Official 2.1 or the AOSP rom!!!
Any solutions?
Thanks in Advance
EDIT: Everything else works fine in the phone

HELP, Galaxy SII not connecting to pc via USB

hi boys and girls.
I have a problem here.,
I updated my Galaxy S II to ICS which made a mess of things. (crashes, freezes, force closes apps not working etc, so I decided to go back to Gingerbread.
It seemed to have worked until I got to the set up new phone screen at which point Im getting an error message that reads:
The application Google services framework (process com.google.process.gapps) has stopped unexpectedly. please try again.
I plug it into my pc and it is not recognized., I cannot flash the rom again because my pc is not detecting my phone.
any advice?
thnx.
You should still be able to connect to your phone while it's in download mode in order to flash a new ROM. Or in CWM for that matter.
If you can't connect in either download or CWM, then unless you have the wrong drivers, your usb port is busted man.

by not recognized do you mean;
It does not charge or give any indication that the connection is made
or
it charges (may or may not give you USB file transfer option) but the pc says "drivers were not installed" even if you have the drivers installed already
i'm sure you're probably well beyond my knowledge with these things but just in case try debugging on and debugging off...

It makes the sound when a USB device is plugged in., then the phone begins charging but that's it. it no longer shows up as a device I can browse and when I launch kies., its not able to find my device.

I cant flash a new ROM because my devices is not detected., my USB ports are working fine. I plug in my phone., I hear the tone the computer makes when a device is connected., phone begins charging but I cannot do anything else with it because its not detected so I cant flash or do anything else.
All drivers are installed and all my Galaxy Note is all good and kies sees it.
Thank you guys for all your help but I just solved the problem.
I went into download mode and using kies even though kies and my pc said no device was connected.
then I chose firmware upgrade and initialization., followed the onscreen instructions and now my GS2 is back in business.
the only thing is Im still stuck with ICS which sucks ass!! apps that used to work dont work anymore., phone crashes freezes and force closes.
now that I know how to fix it maybe I can find a working Stock Gingerbread ROM

I would try uninstalling Kies and then reinstall it. This should reinstall the drivers (when you connect the device via usb) and may fix the problem. There are different drivers for each device Sammy makes.
I fixed it., thanks.

Did you try simply doing a factory data reset? I found when I had problems with programs that force close and things like that a factory data reset always takes care of the problem.

No, I wasnt able to do anything with the phone except put it into download mode.
To fix this you need to use the Kies software and then boot your phone in Samsung recovery now ( turn off the phone now press middle button + -ve volume key +power button) go to "tools" in Kies software then select "Firmware upgrade and initialization" wait for 30 sec and then disconnect the phone and restart the phone by keeping the power button pressed for 5 seconds till the phone restarts. once the phone comes back up connect the phone to the USB cable and it should work.
Note: This issue happened when i tried to upgarde my rooted phone from 4.0.3 to 4.0.4 and it got stuck at 99%.
Please let me know if the post helped any one else

you connect the cord to your prime and to your usb port and nothing at all happens at either end?
Yup. Nothing at all. Install led drivers multiple times and restored to factory defaults.

its either bad cable, bad usb port on your computer, or your computer thinks it has the right driver and no further action is required.
Have you tried plugging it in to another computer?
Somehow it worked on the third computer I tried on. At least it's not the tablet then.. I think. Thanks for all the help!

Well, I have this experience while flashing my friend's phone and here what I've done:
-reboot my computer
-connect the phone, kill all kies related process (I'm using Windows) and start odin. If odin recognise your phone at this point, you are good to go else you might want to reinstall usb drivers.
-use full wipe odin files I found from internet (I got from the pirate bay with search key ics full wipe)
-got few files in that folder. Hope you know their function. Or you can ask here.
Hope this helps.
edit: you also can try to plug into different usb port that have different usb controller

If Odin adds and removes quickly, this looks like your USB cable is dead, try flashing with another - Genuine- one
I had a similar issue while flashing my former SGS1: flashing process interrupted suddenly at 50%
A similar kind of thing happened to my phone as well when I was upgrading to 4.0.4 from gingerbread via Kies. The installation got stuck when the phone was in the download mode and I had no other option than to disconnect. But yours got stuck while using Odin. I would suggest you to flash the firmware again. I hope your phone goes into download mode now. As for the drivers, uninstall everything related to samsung from your PC and then reinstall it. DO NOT UPGRADE SAMSUNG KIES IF IT ASKS YOU TO DO SO! AS I TOLD YOU A SIMILAR THING HAPPENED TO MY PHONE. MY PC COULD'NT RECOGNIZE IT AND I REINSTALLED EVEYTHING AND IT FINALLY SHOWED SOME SIGN. MAKE SURE YOUR ANTIVIRUS IS FULLY DEACTIVATED WHILE YOU EXECUTE THE FLASHING OPERATION!

first of all, while your phone is disconnected from USB cable, can you enter download mode?if no, then try to find someone that have JIG. else, as leech4 said, this might caused by your USB cable. OR might caused by your USB port of your PC. as i said earlier, try to repair your USB driver (not sammy USB driver, but your PC's usb driver). flash using ODIN, and kill kies services from task manager as kies will conflict with ODIN later. here i give you LSJ link(thanks to ApriliaM3) in case you don't have. extract the zip and use all the PDA, PHONE and CSC file. you can even use PIT to re-partition your system. (tested and proven to be working). good luck mate.:good:

Talk to Samsung not us.
Next time do some research into your model and info on how to flash it properley before jumping in and screwing your device up.

Wow, I suspect this kind of brick or what so ever others called it. I've read some where, and they talking about JIG. If what they mean is the same like what I understood from my electronic knowledge, then you have to find someone that have JIG to do further troubleshooting directly from your board, not via usb. Well, I'm just saying. You might want to seek for other solution first since it's your device.
