T-Mobile Samsung Vibrant, unrooted, running 2.1 with TouchWhiz.
Recently, my PC worstation stopped recognizing the phone when I plug in the USB cable. The phone battery will still recharge.
I've tried another cable, same result.
I'm wondering if the connector on the phone has gone bad? Any ideas?
I checked the other threads and didn't find an answer.
Thank you!

chances are if you don't know...you probably need 32bit...normally if you try to install the wrong ones it'll let you know

While it is possible, it's not likely.
What exactly do you mean when you say it's not recognized?
Is USB Debugging enabled?
Have you tested with adb?
Have you tested with another computer?
Have you tested with another rom/kernel?
Almost all the time, USB connectivity issues can be solved by troubleshooting and eliminating possiblities through trial and error. Unfortunately there are many many factors involved since you have software and hardware of two devices as well as the cable itself involved.

Turning on Debugging worked. But why did I need to turn it on now? I didn't need to do so before.

ok the micro usb on my phone doesnt work at all so i cant hook it to the pc,
someone please tell me that i can still task 29 my phone in some way with no usb pretty please??????
I dont think its possible, sorry.
On the other hand..... why the desperate need to task29?
I know a lot of people swear by it but I've had my HD2 since launch and never used it, flashed numerous winmo roms, WP7, Android to NAND and never experienced any issues that have made me think "hmmm task29 would sort this"....
I think its a bit of a placebo if Im honest.
Just my 2 cents......

The only way to do task 29 in your situation is by flashing Correct Stock ROM via Micro SD Card.
All Stock ROM will perform Task 29 before it flashing. But, you will end up with the Stock ROM
Have you tried your friend's PC?
If you task29 you're going to have to connect to your computer to flash a new rom, so how are you going to do that?
Does your phone charge or is the whole usb hardware fried?
My original HTC USB cord allows me to charge most of the time but does not allow the phone to establish a connection to a pc, replaced it with a new Belkin cord and everything works fine. Are you sure it's the phone that doesn't work?

I've searched but am unable to locate the answer to my issue.
I recently upgraded to a new computer. The old one was a 2GHz dual-core running Win 7 Home 64-bit. The new one is a 3GHz, i5 running Win 7 Ultimate 64-bit. For the life of me, I cannot get the USB driver to start.
On the SAMSUNG Mobile USB Composite Device properties I get "This device cannot start. (Code 10)"
I have downloaded, installed, uninstalled and reinstalled Samsung drivers from multiple sources, including the drivers from Samsung's site.
I've installed, uninstalled and reinstalled Kies multiple times.
I've moved the cable to different ports on the PC.
I've clicked debugging on/off
I've selected MTP instead of Mass Storage.
I've rebooted the PC and phone multiple times after these installations.
Nothing seems to help. I continually get the same error.
Anyone have a suggestion before I take this phone and throw it against the wall?
When I run into that issue, it usually turns out to be a busted USB cable.
Either switch the cable or inspect the port on your phone to see If all the pins are aligned

Try uninstalling KIES and install KIES Mini to try and get the proper drivers installed.
If that doesn't work it may be an issue with the custom ROM and/or Kernel. I'd suggest flashing over to something else to see if that fixes the issue.
SOLVED!

Well done BROKKANIC! It must have been the AOKP ROM I was using. I updated to the latest update and now the composite device is working. With my Captivate, Artix and SGSII, I've flashed ROMs hundreds of times and this is the first time I've ever run in to this problem.
Thanks for the suggestion!

You cannot root without a computer.
Your problem is probably a driver issue. Please read the quides carefully as they contain everthing you need to do it.

So you can't get anything to work from your computer including USB storage and fastboot commands? Sounds like a hardware problem with the USB port on the phone or the cable to me.
Does it charge properly? You could still have data issues even if it charges. Some cables only support charging and are not wired for data.

Even if you have the correct drivers installed, some bad drivers might be picking the device up, overriding the good drivers. If you open up device manager, what shows up when you plug in the phone?

Snappea is an app for both windows and your android via which you can connect to your pc
1. First download and install Snappea (Google it "SnapPea" since i cannot post outside links)
2. When installed, it will ask some basic info and after connecting your phone, it will automatically download its android version
3. I guess thats all.... Youll understand its use via the tutorial (pretty much easy)
4. ENJOY!....enjoy transferring your files via pc and android........

What makes a sound when you connect it to the PC? Does the PC itself make a sound? And you did as I suggested and had Device Manager open when you plugged it in - did it refresh at all?

the device makes a sound means it connected to USB only. it can be computer or charger.
did you try uninstalling usb drivers in device manager.
right click and update driver
then select have a disk..

i can't remember the rest of the part.
then it will recognize

Oh then Idk i've never looked into it.
I'm having the same problem with my i777 model.
I uninstalled and re-installed the drivers, I updated the drivers, I tried debugging mode and I've tried "Mass Storage" mode.
Mass Storage mode was the only one that seemed to work for me, when I tried debug mode it would constantly connect and disconnect.
When I try without being in any of those modes, my phone will connect. My computer will recognize and then randomly my phone or computer wont be able to see each other anymore. Like my phone will disconnect from MTP-initialization (but still charge like it's plugged in)...I'm really interested in rooting my phone, but I don't want to since I can't connect my phone correctly. I don't want a $200+ phone becoming a brick and I can't replace it very cheap (anytime soon at least).
Here's phone info if it helps any..?
Model Number: SAMSUNG-SGH-i777
Android Version: 2.3.6
Kernel Version: 2.6.35.7
Build Number: GINGERBREAD.UCKK6

Hmmm...I just tried something. My phone says it's not in MTP, but my PC can read it and open it up.
All I did was turn off my phone, then I plugged it in, then turned it back on and it's doing good so far...might give it a shot, I dunno how well it's really working or nothing though.

Now it's in MTP Application and synchronizing, I'm just trying to back up my phone with Keis so if I do decide to Root, I can back everything back up.

Man you really don't have a clue do you!!
Why in hell would you need OTG to flash a rom? Do you even know what OTG is?
Stop ignoring people that give you the solution too. It's really bad manners.
So download the stock rom and flash it.
You should spend a day reading up first before you damage the phone permanently.
Sorry if not being clear I have been listening my phone has a hardware issue and I'm not to much of a noob have tried each comment. I'm not to nooby but I have downloaded the drivers my device is not being recognized correctly I have a hazardous icon in device manager on my android phone lg ls970. My phone does not support otg I'm trying to install .zips through a flash drive and otg cable. I'm sorry if waisting peoples time with my apparently nooby question. Please c correct me if I'm wrong thanks for the support.
Let me be clearer I'm sorry for not spelling it out well enough. I have installed drivers many times I have installed the driver however my phone is not being recognized correctly I have uninstalled and tried again. Otg which I looked it up pretty handy in these situations, doesn't work for this phone (due to outputting)I had a cm10.2 kernal which may have had something do do with this. I have come to believe that its a hardware problem with the female port I will try again on another computer tomorrow and see.
What I want to know is why it still recognizes something and if its fixable?
Thx
