First of all I am a big-Noob.
My LG optimus one P-500 is in stock ROM.
My Problem :-
Earlier USB was working fine but now
when I plug it in to the AC Adapter it charges OK but when I plug it in to the USB after that it only charges and neither the Phone nor the PC recognizes the USB data connection.
I have tried
1) Power off the phone and remove the battery for a couple of seconds and power it back up, after doing this the USB does not connects. Not even recognised by PC or Phone
2) Device manager also does not detect anything.
3) Uninstalled modem driver and reinstalled USB driver but no result.
Please help
Thanks in advance
Cheers
Request again
Dear mates
I have really very high respect for the forum so please help me out.
ThanQ
Cheers
This happened to me twice before. I had to send it to LG's Service Center because I saw no way of fixing it since the computer wouldnt know what to do with it...
If you have custom recovery installed, you might be able to flash an original ROM over it. This wasn't an option for me before and it seemed like the only way to fix my phone. Don't take my word for it though. Try for the service center first if possible...
Did you try going to settings and choosing Mass Storage only?
Also, change the USB port of the cable with which you connect your phone (plug the cable in another one - try this with all ports if it doesn't work the first time)...
Before going to any service, do a backup and Factory Reset your device, then try again...
Oh, and disable LG modem from Device Manager after installing the USB drivers.
USB not getting detected
I am trying in choosing Mass Storage only.
"Also, change the USB port of the cable with which you connect your phone (plug the cable in another one - try this with all ports if it doesn't work the first time)..."
Not helping either
Disabled LG modem from Device Manager after installing the USB drivers.
No use

I will try this definitely but going to service means 3-4 days without phone . really very scary .
thanks mate

Okay , I did face this problem before and I did about hundreds of advice from my friends but this is the step that works.
I discovered that this happens when you do crazy **** on your sd card with applications such as titanium backup or root explorer. Curiousity kills the cat.
Firstly you need:
1) Usb Card Reader [Of course which suits with your sdcard]
2) Computer
Firstly, you want to dismount the sdcard from your phone and mount it to the USB Card Reader.
Connect the Usb Card Reader to your Computer.
You should be able to gain entry to the sdcard
Next,clear everything on your sd card then place your sd card on your phone back and do a factory reset. If you don't do a factory reset then you must do it all over again if you decided to connect the usb to the phone. After reset-ing the phone , try to connect your phone to the computer. Congratulations.
Note: This works for me but it doesn't meant that it will work for you , but I think that this is worth the try.

Ur phone charges through usb that means your phone usb port/usb cable is ok. Do this :
Uninstall the drivers, restart the pc and try connecting the phone again. Remember not to install the drivers again. Win7 save a dump of old drivers and i think it will auto detect it. Post results here.

Got exactly the same situation with USB(on different PCs) and also Emergency mode on every reboot(taking battery out for about an hour helps).
Did SD wipe though not sure about factory reset afterwards, gotta try it one more time...

Are you sure you are having the latest driver?
try this:
Code:
csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/client/app/B2CAppSetup.exe
install it,
(you may have to choose language from the last tab, 1st or 2nd option)
and choose P500 from "driver installation"
I didnt experience this issue but if i cant help im sorry.

Try another cable.
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App
None of the above methods worked on mine as well - same results on different cable(pc/os).
Will try to flash rooted original firmware via custom recovery, del custome recovery and root and send it to service.
Morning all.
As of yesterday, my S2 won't connect to any pc in mass storage mode.
At first it connected as it should, but after about 5 minutes - before I'd transferred anything - I got a message that windows couldn't recognise the device/driver installation unsuccessful.
Since then I get this message immediately, have tried 4 different pcs.
Would seem the USB drivers are FUBAR somehow, but MTP via Kies works, as does Odin.
I've tried a full factory reset/reinstall, previous backups - stock and custom - removed, reinstalled and updated Kies, cleaned the USB port on the phone - nothing doing. Have tried stock kernels, Siyah, Nimphetamine - nothing. Currently on XWKL1, custom ROM (krinyo's SlimROM) with Siyah 2.6.3+
Also tried uninstalling various USB ports on my home pc, but stopped when I discovered it was the same on all pcs.
It's not the end of the world - I have bluetooth and my microSD - but it's a PITA and I'm out of ideas.
Many thanks for any help/suggestions.

Tried changing the usb cable?
From another post
Dear All
Following are my observations and possible steps to
1. When the phone is upgraded to Android 2.3.4 and above (mine is 2.3.6) Kies stops recognizing the phones and USB connection / Serial port connections etc get reset on the phone
2. Even if proper drivers are there on the laptop (mine is Windows 7 64bit) they are not recognized
3. Device Manager shows "unknown device"
4. Updating the driver also does not result in any help
5. solution lies in the phone
a. key in the dialer *#7284#
b. it has 4 option there..
UART (MODEM/PDA)
USB (MODEM/PDA)
c. For USB. select the PDA.if it already selected to PDA. reselect it by select MODEM and then PDA again.. Only change the USB setting.. andthen press back. try reconnect (thanks to napi1 @ androidforums.com/samsung-galaxy-s2-international/447145-sgs2-kies-not-syncing-os-2-3-5-a.html#post3484588)
6. The Laptop will start recognizing the required drivers and install them

Bugger me, it was the cable....
Bought a new S2 yesterday - nice to have a backup, and the Nexus is meh - and tried the new cable on old S2, everything fine. Old cable on new S2, no good for USB but fine for Kies and Odin as mentioned before.
No idea why it should be like this, but sh*t happens. Easiest solution is often the best!
same problem happened to me too
I have the exact same problem, tried everything like OP, even new cable still same issue...any ideas?

I just received a replacement S2 from AT&T, my old S2's USB port went out. I am wanting to root through Odin and get CM9 back on but I can not get my phone to connect to my PC. I have tried on my main PC Windows 7 64 bit and my laptop Windows XP. The phone is running 2.3.6 KK6. When I connect it I see MTP Initialization followed by MTP Connected on my phone, but nothing on my computer. When connecting in Mass storage mode by either enabling usb debugging or through settings -> wirelss -> USB Utilities the phone will just beep when connecting. I've tried the following to fix:
- Installed Kies, Reinstalled Kies
- Installed just the Samsung USB driver
- *#7284# on my phone and made sure PDA was selected under USB. Even switched to Modem then back to PDA.
- Tried removing my MicroSD card
- Multiple reboots
- Tried 2 different cables
- Tried different USB ports
Any other ideas on how to fix?

First thing I would try is to completely uninstall the usb drivers in Windows, and then reinstall the usb drivers from this thread.
Well...I fixed my issue and want to headbutt a kitten as well. Turned out that I wasn't using a MicroUSB cable that was able to do Data as well as charge. Guess all MicroUSB cables are not created equally. I had 3 that I tried and they would just charge the device. I talked to Samsung and they asked if I was using my "Official" Samsung cable. I thought I was, turns out I wasn't. I went to Walmart and got a cable certified for Data and all is good in the world. Connected to my PC instantly.
So if you are having issues, check to make sure you are using your Samsung cable or one that is certified for data.
After flashing a ROM on my note, my computer can no longer connect to the internal storage. If I hook it into the computer (windows 7) it says USB not recognized. I tried Google and nothing has worked so far so I was truing to get some input from you guys. So far I've tried:
1 pulling my phones battery
2 pulling my laptops battery
3 formatting internal memory
4 installed/reinstalled kies and drivers
5 connecting to Odin (not detected due to no USB recognition)
6 mounting in recovery
7 flashing new ROM
Any help would be appreciated. My phone recognises the storage is there it just won't connect to transfer files and what not.

Device manager on the PC needs to show USB composite device, not generic android device.
Regardless of Odin or Kies Being installed, the PC should still see it.
Go into phone, and turn on USB debugging, then manually connect the device in the network menu.
That may help.
Also, are you using the factory cable ??
These devices require a factory cable.
Overall, you may still have driver issues....g

If so, the rom may have USB issues, and you could also get much more info from the particular rom thread.
Unknown USB device on pc usually means generic drivers are being used, and that tells me the specific device info may be missing in the new rom.
Is is AOSP/AOKP ??

The ROM was black star. And yes it works fine as a phone I just can't connect via USB no matter what ROM I'm on now. I think it somehow corrupted the internal drive. I have tried installing the drivers but its still out recognised

I know that blackstar USB function is good, and you may be right on corruption issues.
If the above links and methods have failed, then I suggest an Odin restore of the stock rom to repair the device partitions.
But be careful. Some devices are very resistant to corruption, while others seem to brick without warning.
Not that I believe we are risking a brick, but with so many users running blackstar without problems, I'm simply urging caution, as a portion of the process was obviously damaged.
Another option, is to wipe the caches on the device, but not data.
Then flash the rom over the top of your current build.
This will often repair damaged or missing files from an incomplete download.
But I would download a fresh copy directly to the device via Wifi, just to be sure ....g

Yea I've used it before (same version too ) but something went very wrong this go around apparently. I can't use Odin as it doesn't recognise the device being connected and mobile Odin (which is what fixed the problem for someone's international note but sadly doesn't work with the i717) and I've tried wiping caches, formatting my internal and external sd, and even flashing a different rom but not matter what no computer will recognize and connect correctly

Not good ...
I suppose it's possible that you have a hardware failure of some sort.
The port might have failed.
I'm not quite ready to say you need a new one, but that's a good next step.
There's been several port failure threads lately, and this one may turn into another.
With the device functioning properly on the rom , we are back to trying a new cable next, then on to the new port.
Of course, only if we know that the PC environment is working properly.
Any new programs on the PC ? Antivirus programs in particular ?
I'm just trying to cover all of the bases ...g

Hi guys,
I'm new to this forum. I've got a Samsung i777 on android 2.3.6 kernel 2.6.35.7 build number gingerbread.uckk6
I've recently bought this phone off ebay
My phone does not get detected by windows 7 or Macbook. I've tried changing the USB flex cable with I9100 v2.3 but still no luck.
When I connect USB port it beeps and shows mtp-initialization/mtp-connected on the phone but it is not shown on windows. It says USB cannot recognise the device. I've got a s3 and ideos x3 both of them are detected.
I've installed kies 3 on my laptop.
I had to swtich off the wifi on the phone because it consumes a lot of battery, I think it is because of the android version I'm using!
I want to root the phone and unlock it!!
Any help is appreciated!

I'm guessing the problem is the Samsung drivers you have installed for the s3. Try uninstalling those and installing the correct drivers for s2.

Did you install another ROM? It might help to Wipe system, Data, ETC! it appears to be a software problem. Or at least my guess is the ROM your using.
The Galaxy phones all use the same USB drivers whether it's an S2, S3, S4, etc., so if the installed drivers were working for your S3, it's unlikely to be a driver issue.
Can you boot it into download mode? If you happen to have a USB jig, that's the easiest. Otherwise, power off the phone, unplug the USB cable, hold Vol +/Vol-, then plug in the USB cable. It should go into ODIN download mode. See if Windows detects the phone that way. If so, it very well could be something weird with the OS installed (although it appears to be stock).
If you can get into download mode, you can flash a stock kernel to make sure you are starting fresh. A good file repository is found here. I recommend the stock UCKH7 image I777_UCKH7_OCD_No_BL.7z (you'll also get root).
And yes, the UCKK6 release had a serious bug related to the wifi that could drain your battery. Best to go with UCKH7.
You could also download an app that allows you to enter download mode.

I was able to boot to download mode by holding the vol +/- key and then plugging in the USB cable but there is no movement from the computer it doesn't make a sound nor does it detect. I tried restarting the phone then I get a notification on windows that USB device not recognised!
Yes I guess this rom is useless, if the wifi is switched on then battery would not even last 6 hrs!

Are you saying to get a balloon notification in the tray that says the USB device is not recognized? A possible reason for that is a faulty USB cable or USB port (funny enough, I actually got that message last night when I was playing around with my Captivate, and switching USB ports made it work). I know you said you've tried other computers an another USB cable, but that's about my only idea. Maybe there's some debris inside the connector that's messing up the connection.
When you say you changed the "USB flex cable", are you talking about the internal connector and board inside the phone? If so, perhaps the I777 connector board is actually a little different than the I9100 board and causing a compatibility issue.
The bug in UCKK6 related to wifi didn't affect everybody, but it definitely affected a lot of people (based upon reports here).

If you have an SD card, you can download another ROM on that SD card from your computer and then you can install custom recovery (CWM) and then install the ROM from SD card.

First ill run you through the problem I had. Just for reference did you use Mr. Cooks script before flashing Cyanogenmod 11? One of his scripts for cleaning before flashing, actually deletes a certain file, not to keen on which one. What it results in though is not being able to flash OF ROMS and some certain custom ROMS! So id recommend alliance's ROM! As for the "Getting the ROM on your device, you could put the ROM on your SD though recovery "Mount and storage/Mount mass storage/" or just use a micro sd card adapter and move it on there that way.
Thanks for your reply. Would you mind sending me the link on how to do that step by step as mentioned I'm new to Samsung phones and also this forum.

What state is your phone currently in? Is it still not detected by the computer? You are still on 2.3.6, correct?
If it's still not being detected by your computer, I'm not sure if you can flash anything needed using the stock recovery. I know that when I flashed stock JB, I was able to boot into stock recovery and directly apply the standard CWM update file here. It will give boot into a temporary CWM that should allow you to flash other ZIP files (like a ROM), although I had trouble doing that (so I ended up flashing the AJK_v4.9_NoSwap.zip kernel using the MobileOdin android app, which gave a permanent CWM recovery).
I'm not sure if this same process works with the 2.3.6 recovery. However, in order to get the stock recovery to see the internal SD card, I had to run adb shell commands to mount the partition (meaning I had to have a working connection from the computer).
Solved!!!
HI Guys,
Many many thanks for all your responses!
I have changed the USB flex cable again to an older version v2.2 and my phone is currently being detected by kies! So relieved thanks a lot for all your help..now the rooting begins!!:laugh:
