I just plugged in my tab 10.1 into my PC to copy a new ROM over, windows detects my device, drivers are installed successfully, all is good to go. However the device does not show up in my computer. I tried disabling /enabling USB Debugging but it makes no difference.
I am running on AOKP rom so is that the reason why my device isnt mounting properly? I remembered it was working fine before. The strange thing is when i put it into download mode and plug it into odin it does not recognise anything there either. I cant even copy anything in or out of the tablet!
My reason for doing all this is to revert back to a stock Honeycomb 3.2 ROM as ive had enough of experimenting with ICS. What should I do now?
Did you make a Nandroid backup of your last HC setup? If you did just restore that.
Also you can try one of those wifi transfer apps like "Wifi File Transfer Pro". I use it all of the time to transfer files, movies and roms. Works like a charm every time.
The only time I use the cord is to charge my tab.

Go to Settings / Storage and there will be three dots on the top. Click on those and re-enable USB connection.
Its alright, managed to install the "proper" drivers by booting into download mode via the recovery. Somehow windows missed it out during the first time i plugged it in. :/ All is working fine now

I have a vibrant that must have a defective usb port. It won't charge. The phone also has other weirdness. Sometimes doesn't turn on. Sometimes goes around in circles. In otherwords, pretty much FUBAR.
It is currently running Bionix V 1.3.1. I am unable to get my pc to see the vibrant with Odin. Odin can see my other vibrant phone.
I would like to put the phone back to stock so I can return it to T-Mobile.
Is there a way to return the phone to stock using clockwork recovery, nandroid backup, or something like that?
There are stock flashable zips. Not certain it will fix your issues. Check the Bible in the dev section.

Here's what to do....
boot your other vibrant that works into recovery.
choose advanced. then choose backup/restore
choose backup
choose yes. let it do the process of backing up.
when its done. plug it into your computer and mount USB
go to the folder choose the folder which is your phone (not the sdcard in your phone) called clockwordmod in there in there should be a folder named something like 2011-5-4 or something that...
copy and paste that folde to your desktop
now copy that same folder to your sdcard. anywhere is good just remember where it is
remove the sdcard from that phone. (advise settings/storage/UNMOUNT)
put the sdcard in your messed up phone
when it finished Scanning Media Card . use Root explorer and copy that folder to the Clockworkmod folder on your phone
reboot to recovery
choosed advanced then choose backup/restore
choose restore
that file should be there
choose it then select "yes"
this will do a nandroid back-up of the ROM on your other phone
It will now have the same ROM as your other phone but should work fine.
this process can be done using any ROM from your other phone
if you want it stock..just revert your GOOD phone to stock FIRST and start from the beginning of my instructions (assuming you know how to Install clockwork mod)

Nice tip but how often do we have an extra phone that is exactly the same laying around? Just saying......
could be your charging port. i went through 3 of them and it is frustrating. check in settings, battery if it is actually charging. everytime mine went bad it would never show its charging. not on the status bar or lockscreen. only when i checked it in settings it showed. and of course it never connects to the pc.
that may be part of your problem. good luck
@itz keefy, he said he has another vibrant......

Where did you get port fixed? My cappy is going bad.
What are you looking at shortbus......
I couldnt fix it, i bout ports off of ebay but the solder is way too small for me to handle. And everyone I talked to wanted from 55 to 75 bucks. I just got the motherboards each time. I probably should have forked out the money to repair it because it seems like the used boards were waiting to go bad anyway. It already cost me over 100 bucks so far
I only paid $100 for the phone, guess I should get on Craigslist.

Lol i am aware of that but i was in the same boat and i dont have another vibrant laying around. I thought for weeks my usb port on the phone was bad but on a hunch a decided to go get a name brand usb cable from tmobile themselves and voila it worked flawlessly. I would check into a new cable from tmobile if you havent already, it solved my problem.
I am currently on stock 2.2 , I have cwm recovery, and when I try to update, after the Ron 2.3 rom is downloaded, the phone turns off to patch with recovery mode. The thing is, since I have cwm recovery. The phone just sits there, on it's clockwork mod recovery main menu. I need help to get pass this, maybe how to get back to stock recovery, or can anyone upload the stock official 2.3 rom so I can flash from cwm? Thank u for reading this.
Should be able to find what you need here.
Help.
Ummm. I know about this, but the thing is, I dot want to lose all my apps I have in the phone. I there a way to back up apps and contacts so I can have the same apps/contacts/emails?
Your contacts should be backed up with your google account so I wouldn't worry about that. For your apps, use titanium backup. Emails? The emails aren't actually on the device so you won't be losing anything, when you set up your account(s) again they will be there.
a bit more help again.
I have backed up all my apps with titanium. To recover my apps after flashing, do i have to download titanium backup again and hit recover? Also, I have a macbook. I have a vmware installed, I have all drivers installed for vmware, and whenever I plug in my phone to my computer, and hit, "connect to windows" in Vmware, nothing will ever pop up. I'm thinking that maybe windows isnt succefully responding with the mac. Is there a certain easy use program like Odin that can work on the Mac? if not, I will just get my laptop monitor fixed, or just put all the files into a flash drive, bring it to my office, and do it from there.
Thank you!

I was actually just talking about this in another thread but, to answer your question, I honestly been successful in getting my macbook to recognize the fascinate in download mode although I can mount the SD card and transfer files fine (and even ADB, on gingerbread at least). I was trying to use heimdall as opposed to running a odin in a VM though. I did a little poking around and it seems like a common issue with the galaxy S phones and macs. Never ended up finding a surefire way to make it work so I just use a windows machine when I need to bust out odin. Sorry I can't offer a solution, but if you have access to a windows machine it'll be much less of a headache.
Oh, and I haven't used titanium in a while, but yeah you just restore the backed up apps after flashing a rom. I believe the free version is limited in some ways and you can't do batch operations. Although I would try to start fairly fresh after the update, only restoring the apps with data that you can't afford to lose. Sometimes restoring data on system apps will cause issues, although if you're just going from stock 2.2 to 2.3 then you'll probably be ok restoring most things.
Thanks
Thank You!
I have succefully flashed it from a windows machine.
I am restoring all the apps right now.
Thanks for responding !
No problem! Hopefully you won't need odin enough to where it's too inconvenient to use a windows machine.
Oh and thank you for using the "thanks" button too! I don't really like when people tell others to hit their thanks button since IMO it's kinda incongruent with the whole point of voluntarily 'thanking' someone. But thank you, I appreciate it!
Hello,
I installed Teamcooper CM7.2 (nightly don't remember the exact version) on my mom's mobile.
The PC does not shows the device storage. Hence she cannot copy any pictures / songs to the mobile. ((Airdroid) Wifi is not an option for now)
Any help would be really appreciated
Cheers
Download samsung android usb driver from here
http://www.4shared.com/rar/vaejbJQG/samsung_usb.html
Extract the rar file and install driver.Restart PC(not compulsory).Now connect your phone..Done!!
As its Cyangenmod, I don't think you can use Kies. Just take out the memory card and shove it in your computer.

thank you all. I was too fast in typing I guess. Kies wont work on CM as I have CM9 on SGS2 I knew that well but didn't realize what i was asking.
What I wanted to ask is how to get the USB work on PC. Since it's my mom's phone I wanted to help her. I made a mistake in flashing the custom firmware
Will try the USB drivers

Sorry, I thought you needed to access the SD card. Go to the stickies and find the guide. It tells you how to use ODIN.

Ok. She tried installing it the usb drivers provided by @side_effect but didnt work. Computer(Win 7) still does not show up the external SD storage as drives
Unfortunately we are continents apart so only way for me is do over skype and desktop sharing :-(

I had my Note connected to my Mac as a media device (MTP) and was able to use Android File Transfer to copy files to and from my phone. While connected, I selected the option to connect as Camera (PTP) and cannot get it to connect as a Media device (MTP) again and it no longer works with the Android File Transfer App.
My note is rooted and unlocked and I'm running CleanROM 3.5. I've rebooted, wiped cache & dalvik, fixed permissions, tested on Windows 7 and a second Mac, and I can't get this setting to change. I've searched the forums and Google and haven't found a solution.
Is there anything else I can do, reset, or perhaps a file I can edit with Root Explorer to correct this? I'd like to avoid having to restore a nandroid backup or reflash if possible.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks. I tried that but still couldn't get it to work. My last nandroid was only a couple days old so I went ahead and restored that and it's back to normal now.
The same thing has happen to me. I'm rooted and running Clean 4.0.5. I cannot change it over to (MTP). If someone can help that would be great. I prefer not to do a restore.
Any word on this??
I had to wipe and reflash to get it back.

Thanks for the link but these ROM's are not for my phone. Did a search for Energy (Energy ROM, which is the ROM's by NRG) in Android Development forum for my phone ATT Galaxy Note but nothing found. Looks like he makes these ROM's for the HTC phones. His ROMs look totally awesome though.

Try flashing back to stock 4.0.4 ICS and it should be able to connect again. Here's a link for the .tar file. Just use Odin to flash it and make sure repartition is OFF.. this is a good .tar to keep stored. This is how I always revert to REAL At&t ics stock.

Kies looks for binaries that are not altered, especially those without super user access, which all custom roms have.
Additionally, kies looks for the 3e recovery when it connects, which is lost upon flashing of CWM/TWRP..
Stock roms and recoveries will restore kies function....g
Thanks guys and I hit you both up on the thanks meter, I will do this and take your advice. Once I get all my contacts which are backed up on Kies restored I will sync to google so I won't have to rely on Kies. This way If I use a custom ROM I can get access to and restore my contacts pic, and vid's without Kies, should have done this in the first place.
