Hey.
I've got a Galaxy Ace.
I want to root it, for App2SD+.
Now I tried to connect it with my MacBook.
It fails. The Ace peeps (loading), nothing else.
1. Tried it with USB debugging on/off
2. Hard reset done
3. Download Mode, nothing
4. Tried SyncMate for Mac, nothing
What can I do? I don't know, what's the problem.
Can't get any connection.
Hadn't any root or sth else before.
Could it be, that I deleted a system program? I mean, never got sudo etc. But I deleted lot of programs on the phone memory, because ran out of space.
Thanks!
EDIT: When the phone was new, it worked. Since that I also set up Mac OS X new. Tried btw also Kies.
I had the same issue with my Mac. The really strange thing is that I never found a solution but the connection problem disappeared by itself after some weeks. Maybe after a reboot. I am pretty sure it's a Mac problem and not an Ace. Good luck!

Thanks...
After about ~2-3h reading in the web, I found the problem!
Was the cable -.- The HTC cable seems not to work, but the Samsung cable
Why I hadn't this idea earlier?
EDIT: But Kies says: Device not supported? Oo

What ROM are you at ?

Well Some of you guys will be surprised that i am writing about an actual concern of mine. BOOBIES!!! Now that that is out of the way.. I currently operate a Samsung Vibrant T-959 with (ROM)(PORT)Simply Galaxy 2.7XE SweeyHoney.ZSJPJ W/OverStock-v2.2.1 And a Ka7 Kernel Wich is a port from the Samsung International series I9000.
My problem is that every computer i connect to, doesnt recognize my device. Ive tried installing new drivers as well as re-flashing the rom, and still my device is not recognized. I have noticed that within the rom im using, there is a ".prop Editor" in SGHToolS. I see that if i knew what i was doing i might be able to change everything that says I9000 to T-959 (which every computer recognized)
Ive done some researching about "prop Editor" and i havent left feeling confident about messing with it. Im sorry if there was a post that expressed this concern in the past, i haven't found one but that doesnt mean its not here. So in closing, Thank you And HELP ME PLEASE!!... And remember, we all where noobs at some point
You need to download the AIO toolbox on the computer you are using and Install the drivers that program gives you. Its an actual button the the program that says "Install Drivers"....the drivers needed on the computer are not included in the classic driver install when you connect the phone. Even if you search the internet for the drivers (the option it gives you) it wont find the right ones.
also make sure you enable debugging (duh)
::if i helped, thank me::

First make sure it not in Debugging mode
Then try something as simple as Settings/ Wireless and Networks/USB Settings/ask on connection or just enable Mass storage/ and it will pop up with a selection of accepting it and then your phone will be mounted!
I have a T959 Vibrant just like you,and Im running about the same ROM as you, and Im having no problems using WIN XP PRO 32 bit OS on my lappy! The ROM detects the phone as a GT-I9000 but I still can still mount it, or have a port appear if i use ODIN, or BayWolfs program etc!

Thanks dude, my buddies computer will probs need this and not just the obvious step i just preformed. I absolutly love the knoledge of everyone on this site!! I feel dumb sometimes, but im learning
Everything worked great!!!
That being said, this morning while i was pluging mu usb in the computer, my finger touched the other end of the usb cable(that plugs into phone) Ever since then my computer doesnt even recognize that its pluged in...
Whe its in "debuggin" the computer and usb icon go on the phone
But when i plug into computer all my phone does is says its charging
Any ideas?
when its plugges in and you see the icons on your phone...pull down the menu and click the one that says 'connect USB' on your phone...then click ok when it asks you if you want to connect...should work

Thats what i would normaly do... but when i plug it in, my phone doesnt even give me the option of that.. My phone just thinks its charging while in computer :/
This happened to my girlfriends phone last week...she is running bionix 1.3.1.....i thought something was wrong so i re-installed the ROM to no avail. I gave up for the night.
The next day i plugged it in to the computer...and boom....worked fine. I dont know what caused it...but after a day it worked fine for me after doing essentially nothing.
maybe try going into recovery and reflashing your Kernel (tigersblood overstock whatever) then fix the permissions and wipe cache partition. and reboot.
just an idea but it may work.

Ok, It got solved yesterday this way:
You do not need to reinstall drivers on PC.
You do not need to reinstall ROM or anything on your phone.
You do not need *# special codes.
You do not need a new cable or change USB port or change your phone for a new one.
It seems to me that somehow (probably for debugging, connecting and disconnecting several times) the phone locks itself in a state where it is unable to connect again through USB although it charges.
So how did I solve it? I executed this actions several times even in different order some times: disabled debugging, disconnected cable, restarted phone, connected cable, (still not recognizing), tryed to USB Theter (even when the option was disabled), reenable debugging.
Out of nothing i noticed the USB icon was there again in my phone and i was able to debug copy files etc again.
I tried disconnecting and conneceting again and it kept working correctly.
I hope this helps someone else with the same problem and probably someone fixes the bug on the OS.
Cheers!
I have a galaxy S2 which I've updated via XDA to 2.3.6, everything was working fine until a few days ago, I plugged the phone into my PC and I was given "One of the USB Devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned et etc" and then "Device Drive not installed correctly" something along those lines.
I've tried it on other machines and the same thing happens, I can't access the storage nor detect it in odin or keis.
Any suggestions or help would be hugely appreciated.
Bump for bumpsake
Try the first part of this thread (The bit about uninstalling/reinstaling Kies/drivers).
Can you let me know what happens? I had exactly the same issue but its in warranty repair, I would like to try to fix it when it comes back, Im assuming it wont be fixed under warranty
No Nandroid backup ???
jje
No backup, I backup files and wipe generally, but the phone can't sync with the PC so I can't reinstall a different stock firmware.
I'd pay good money if someone could fix this or had an idea how to fix it?
First step would be back up data and factory reset .
jje
See my thread here.
If the modem/pda fix doesn't work, try another USB cable - you might be pleasantly surprised.
I know I was...
Excellent advice. And also along this line of thinking, another PC/OS might be worth a shot as well if nothing else works.

Should have mentioned Ive tried another PC but I havent tried another cable as I dont have access, but Ill try to get one from somewhere

You did
Tried the dialpad PDA/Modem hack? From my googling last week, it doesn't seem to have worked for the majority.
Ive now tried a new cable, Ive tried restarting the phone when its plugged into the pc but when its powered off and charging it will not turn on no matter what I do.
I have tried uninstalling kies and restarting then letting windows install a driver but it installs the old driver I believe.
This all started with 2.3.6 and as far as I can tell, I must have installed the wrong version for my region or something and its affected the way it shows up.
i had exactly the same problem from an hour to another i was really pissed off,
i had a nandroid backup but that doesnt helped much.
the thing is i reinstalled my computer clean install without any software only kies, cleaned the usb port of the cellphone and by doing that i got my cellphone recognized at odin sometimes, when i got recognized i pray it doesnt disconnect and flash full XXKI3 with pit file and problem solved, don't know why this happened but i was going crazy haha
a tip that helped me with odin. get to device manager with the phone plugged in and disable unknown device ( the one that cellphone is) then if you reconnect your cellphone twice for me it's work on odin!
the main problem for me was the unknown device you had and that it reconnect constanly, also you have to know the solution for me was xxkp8 with pit that solved my problem then went to xxki3 and is was solve already but i think xxki3 willl be the same for you, i whink the clean install with pit is the solution, maybe someone can correct me, this worked for me (i thought it was the usb port and my guarantee is under USA and i'm from argentina so i was getting crazy, i tried all and this helped (also with this problem couldnt go back to stock firmware :S)
good luck i hope this help you
PS: i tried all sollutions they said to you here and nor one helped! and searched the hole forum and nothing helped me!
PS2: i thing it can be related to something broked on the cellphone software, cause my region last firmware was 2.3.4 i was using simple and clean rom 2.3.6 not for my region without a problem and suddenly this happened now i'm again on S&C cause it fits for my usage and no problem at all!, something messed up the cellphone maybe a buggy flash of siyah kernel by the time it happened to me i was testing siyah 2.6.3 i think and it was really buggy for some people
Hey fdbailes,
That pretty much sounds like what is going on with me, I've tried what you suggested but sometimes when I plug it in, it doesn't even detect a device, the PC makes the noise but nothing happens.
It's really very disapointing, I am a carer for a disabled person so I have no money to buy a new phone and I really really want ICS on my galaxy.
Thanks for the help, Ill keep trying, what version of Odin were you using?
Did you use the stock Samsung Cable?
I cant think of anything else except
Does anyone know if its possible to install a new kernel from the SD somehow?

Mobile Odin, if you're rooted.
I am not, I'm on 2.3.6, please tell me theres a quick and dirty mobile root? lol
I'd settle for hugely complicated and filthy....
Edit: Would is it possible/would it be possible, to update firmware or root over wifi or bluetooth?
I was thinking that you could install the cwm manager apk, but I'm not sure if you have to be rooted to install it... Brain not working well today, anyone else can confirm/deny?
You can but try anyway. Download Superuser and Nitrality from the market, use Nitrality to install the apk, see what happens.
View attachment CWMManager.apk
Blast, CWM wont run unless I have root access.
Also, Nitrality keeps crashing at launch
Did you ever find a solution for this?? I just got a new tmobile sg2 but my laptop is doing the same thing?? I really wanna root it already
I have a international version of the SGS3, and I'm having problems with the MTP drivers, but it's only in my computer. I tried all the solutions i've found here on xda, and all over the internet. And apperatenly this problem is only with my computer, cause my friend came home yesterday, and I tried to connect my phone to his computer (wich is also from SAMSUNG) and it worked just fine, I was able to root, and do everything. So if anyone have another solution to this problem please share with me =D

Hello,
I have a very big problem with my Samsung Galaxy S3 I9300.
The problem started when my battery ran down very very fast. I can use my phone for no longer than maybe 6 hours, and that is in stand by. If I want to charge my phone till it's completely full it might take two days on the charger as well, even when my phone is off. I tried to reset my phone to factory defaults, but that didn't fix the problem. I even bought a new battery, hoping that would solve the problem, but even no luck with that. The phone also becomes hot in the bottom. Now I wanted to bring it back to the store for warrenty but there lies the next problem, my phone is rooted.
I know it is possible to unroot the phone, and it's nog too hard to do. But every time I connect my phone with USB to my computer, my computer doesn't recognize it. I get the next error message "USB device not recognized". I tried different cables, I tried on an other computer, but still I get the same error. I also tried the S3 of a friend on my computer and with his phone I do get a connection. So I know there is nothing wrong with the drivers on my computer or something like that. There must be something wrong with my phone.
Now the problems won't stop here because there is even a third problem. Like I said before I have rooted my phone, but I can't use SuperUser. When I start SuperUser it says "The SU Binary needs to be updated. Continue?". Then when I press continue I get the message "Installation failed !". I can't use CWM as well. I wanted to use Triangle Away before bringing it back for warrenty, but I can't use it because I can't use SuperUser.
If some one would have an idea to unroot my phone without using USB so I can bring it in for warrenty. Or find a way to get my USB port running again, I think that would fix my problems.
I spend a few hours trying to fix these problems, but now I've come to a point I don't know what to do anymore, I hope anyone of you is willing to help me. I'll be for ever gratefull.

Hi.
If i was you, i would try to install a official version, using Odin.
Also, my advice is not to use the original charger, Even chinese have better one´s...
Did you install Kies and drivers on your PC? Check that too.
Consider install leaked 4.2.2 version of Rom, since it uses Odin to do it.
I hope i gave at least some clues....

Thanks for your reply,
I forgot to mention that I have the official ROM installed, I only rooted it. But even if I would want to install a new ROM, my computer doesn't recognize my phone throug USB. So I can't install a ROM using Odin unless my USB port is running again.
I tried several chargers already, I don't think the problem lies in the charger because the battery drains very fast when it's of the charger.
I did install Kies and drivers, I even uninstalled them and reinstalled them again a couple of times. I even tried it on different computers. And the Galaxy S3 of a friend of mine does make a connection. So I don't think the problem lies there.

Hummm....
Did you try hard reset? Definitely without USB recognition, you can`t go to next stage....
In setup did you check optinos like USB debugging?
At this moment im out of options....maybe a poweruser can help you better:highfive:

What exactly do you mean with hard reset? If you mean powering on with home button and volume up button pushed, and then select "wipe data/factory reset". Then yes, I tried that.
In setup I did check USB debugging. The thing is, when I power on with home button and volume down button, I enter download mode. But even in download mode my computer does not recognize my phone. I'm not sure, but I think the computer should.
I'm really stuck here :crying:
