When I plug my phone into my computer, it is no longer recognized by windows. It used to... now it doesnt...
I have googled this
I have checked the forums
I have NOT found a solution that works
I have tried booting my phone while it's plugged in.
I have tried reinstalling kies.
The phone comes up as "uknown device" in the usb section of device manager, when i specify the 64bit drivers(I'm running win7 pro 64) it says drivers are up to date! and then proceeds not to work.
I have also tried setting my phone into usb debugging mode.
I have tried all my computers usb ports.
If anyone knows how to help me I'd really appreciate it.... and if I've blindly missed something feel free to call me a moron so long as you successfully help me

I have noticed that some ROM's will enable debugging, I personally run a MAC. But you may want to check those settings to see if its enabled/disabled. But if your charging on it you should be good. Have you tried to odin back to stock and seeing if that helps?
Other thing: do you have the samsung drivers installed on your PC? even if you don't you should still see the external storage just not the internal.

What rom are you using? If you are running one of the test CM7 builds you have to download the Google drivers from the Android SDK.
Does your phone show up when you mount it as external memory? Did you install the drivers and kies as an administrator?
exact same scenario!
I am having the exact same issues as the OP! Except that i have the unbranded gt-i9000. My galaxy s is completely stock, no custom firmware or launchers. Heck, after the last factory reset, not even any apps!
I have tried every suggestion on every search i could do. I have 4 computers with xp sp3, win7 sp1, ubuntu 10.04.1, and mac os x 10.5.8. Nothing is working on any of them. I've even tried different usb cables, just to rule that out.
Could it be a samsung hardware issue?
I can not get Odin to "See" my phone when it is in download mode!!!! I can get my phone into download mode without any issue. I can mount the phone as a mass storage drive without a problem. Any suggestions would be GREAT!!!
Which version of Odin are you using?
Do you have the drivers installed? Does it show up in device manager?
The best thing for you to do here is to download AIO Vibrant Toolbox. It comes with all of the drivers that you need and will allow you to put your Vibrant straight into download mode without the need for the button combinations. It comes with a good version of Odin and everything.
Give it a try and let me know if you have any more problems putting it into download mode.
Another problem that I ran into when putting my phone into Download Mode was the cable connections. The phone that I had second hand was a bit worn and I had to fiddle with the connector to get it all secure. Try another cable if you've got one lying around.

Yes, the drivers are installed.
Yes, I can get to that screen.
I am using AIO Vibrant Toolbox. I used the drivers with that for an x64 system, did not work. I found newer versions of the drivers, still not working.
The weird part about all of this is that I had this working, on this computer, the last time I flashed ROM.
Reboot your computer. Try a different usb port. If that doesn't work try a different cable like chadhoard said. I had one that got loose and wouldn't make contact anymore.

I tried those things, other then a different cable. I do not believe it is the cable, because I can mount the phone as a mass storage device without any issues.

I am going to try that later. Someone on another forum suggested disabling driver signature. Still fuzzy on how to do that, plus it is my work computer, so I do not want to screw anything up by doing that.
If the drivers are already installed I don't think driver signature should matter. Is that the computer you used before?

Any suggestions on how to make that I remove every last bit of the drivers off the computer?? I will just try re-installing them.
Depending on how you initially installed the drivers there should be an uninstall entry in Add/Remove Programs.
This is what I've always used to install the drivers. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=728929

make sure you have the samsung drivers installed...
Everything is installed including the drivers, its saying the device is not being recognized even though the drivers are on my computer..
are u using the stock usb cable? Maybe try a different one. Also might want to try a different computer. Another thing go into device manager and make sure the drivers are indeed installed for your device.

Yes I am using the stock cable, and I have tried it on 3 different computers each one isn't working and a pop up comes up stating the usb device cannot be recognized or something close to that. Under disk drives on device manager it does show SAMSUNG HM500JJ but I dunno...this is weird maybe I just can't get this thing rooted..

I would try redownloading and installing the samsung drivers...try the drivers from section 1 of my guide in general section. If that still dont work then try another usb cable. The cables can be touchy with odin, especially if you coil it up all the time. Don;t ask me why, all I know is in the past 6mo this issue has been posted 50times or better. Usually its one of the things I mentioned causing the problem.

Yea that is the driver I have been using and I have uninstalled it and installed it probably a good 5 times. I just dont understand why it would be the cable if I plug it in and its giving the message "The USB Device cannot be detected" or something along the lines of that. I will try the cable for my HTC Thunderbolt tomorrow and see if it works. If that doesn't work then it looks like the phone won't be getting rooted because I don't have anymore cables to try and I am running out of patience
It has to be the driver...my htc thunderbolt works perfect and is always recognized and adb works too and recognizes my device

If you have usb debugging turned on, usb cable plugged in, installed either the samsung driver or nexus driver and still get a "cant recognize device error" then either the usb port is bad on the phone or the cable is jacked. The problem is not the drivers...Lots of people use the drivers I suggested with no problems. I thinks its the usb cable personally because from what you describe, windows can tell something is plugged into the usb port, but cant tell what it is. Windows has to be able to recognize the device before you can install the drivers for it.

My problem is that my phone rooted with Revolutionary Hboot 1.4 stopped being recognized by my computers on multiple ROMs and stock kernel along with Chads #9....when I connect it no audible noise sayings its connected, doesent show up in device manager, no notifications on pull down on the phone nothing....I cant connect adb cause it doesnt recognize the phone even when I go into fastboot etc I get nothing. Ive searched and searched and found people with similar problems with no real solution but Ive tried it all from removing reinstalling drivers changing ROMS wiping SD card and formatting phone until eyes bleed and 4 different usb cords. Once during several hours I did get the pop up asking what I wanted to do but it wouldnt connect or give the audible warning. Could it be a hardware problem? Should I try going to stock?
Are u possibly on MeanRom maybe 3.7 or so and anthrax Rls 8 beta 2 or 3.
If so; you may have chad0989's "fast charge" script on & preventing usb stuff from working. One of my last 10th posts in MeanRom has details on what to change or u could move to Mr 3.92 where the script is disabled by default.
Edit: I must be tired and didn't read your post correctly & doubt this is your issue. Is usb debugging enabled? (shouldnt matter with fasrboot). Did u uninstall all the HTC drivers/sync etc, & reinstall just the driver (see revolutionary.io for just the driver).
Here's a thread for the.Transform, but steps 4 & up may be able to help u if the driver reinstall doesn't:

No I havent.....How would that affect it if it wont mount when the phone is booted? I cant get it to connect in fastboot either.....is it possible that the data pins where its plugged in could be bad? Isnt it like 2 are for charging and other 2 are for data or something?
Have you tried mounting it when in recovery?
Have you tried using a different port, or a different computer?
I would try flashing a different recovery (twrp or 4ext) and try mounting the USB device through the recovery options, if that doesn't work, I would say it could be a bad port.
A recovery can effect if your able to connect to your pc. But if your trying to get your issue solved try flashing a different recovery to see if will help.

4. If that still doesn't work, try PDAnet http://junefabrics.com/android/ Once you have that installed, click "all programs", click (or right click depending on your OS) "Install Legacy USB drivers". Then plug your phone in to complete installation.
5. From the thread here:

The other is that the phone may be setup for the diagnostic modem mode
that store technicians use to triage the phone. You can access the menu to
change this by typing ##8778# in the dialer.
The top "UART" setting should be on MODEM, and the bottom "USB" setting
should be on "PDA" for regular operation. As technicians we normally change
this setting back, but there is always a chance someone forgot it when
finishing up a phone.
6. http://www.techspot.com/vb/topic145884.html#post875300 THIS JUST SAVED ME! My transform said it was connected but my computer didn't "see" it. After doing this, just reconnect. If you have any questions about this method, just ask me.
7. If all this fails, try another computer, os, usb port, or usb cord.
If you cannot get the phone to connect, you can use adb to push, pull, etc. files. For example, to push, you would install the sdk and set it up (google it). Then put a file, such as browser.apk in the platform-tools directory. Click run, type cmd. Cd to your platform-tools directory. Type adb devices to see your phone plugged in. Then type "adb push browser.apk /sdcard" to put the apk on your sd card. I think there is a adb wireless app somewhere too so you can even skip the cable.
Here is a list of compatible usb cords that have been shown to work:
This is the one i use... its retractable and a little short but it works perfectly http://www.amazon.com/Micro-Retract...3?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1310868486&sr=1-3
The cable that comes with an evo.
Lg cord that comes with the optimus.

Well I've tried the 8778 which I guess doesn't work but I only found 3282 & 3424 diagnostic codes and didn't see anything there in regards to that post. I tried the other app but it was a no go. I am going to flash another recover later tonight and see how that goes. It's just weird that NOTHING connects in any mode and can't do adb. It's like the driver or something on the phone isn't communicating in anymode

can you plzzz post another recovery as i faced the same problme
when connect to pc it charge only and cant mount sd to pc etcc..plzzzzzzzzzzz
it sounds almost impossible to do anything to your since tgeres no way of getting you computer to recognize your evo. Phone hardware does go bad eventually. This is most likely a hardware issue and no debugging or command typing is going to fix it. Your only options are to go have it serviced. Not though sprint of course. They won't even touch it. If you know somebody you could take it to them and have it looked at to see what's going on and find a fix with it. I had a fairly similar problem with my acer tablet, Couldnt get data to mount, tried all the solutions with no success. Then I tried typing commands to rewrite the data table nodes associated with the data partition. With no success either. The partition was bad. Back to my point, hardware does go bad. Hopefully you can get someone to fix it.
Hello pretty nooby ;however, im stuck i recently wanted to try an older cm10.2 rom from the unstable newer ones and decided to go back to cm11 and i decided to reformat my data leaving me emptiness.

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
I have fixed thanks luqman98 it was a problem with windows not allowing me to install drivers due to 8.1 update
