So I am on stock but somehow, KIES wont work. It keeps saying connecting, but wont go further than that.
USB debugging is unchecked so I am sure that it not the problem. I heard T-Mobile for ICS upgrade, so I just wanted to be prepared for ICS update for ATT, but idk, why KIES is not working.
Any suggestions?
Bent USB prong in the phone? I've had to adjust mine several times since I got it launch day. Or hardware failure. When my USB was bent it could still charge via a wall charger

yeah I think it works when i use at a certain angle.
I am trying to go back to the stock rom and hopefully i can return it, but for some reason Odin is not recognizing it. I mean the yellow box of COM:0 does not show up in the "I777UCKH7-CL503881-No-BL.exe"
Do you know the reason for this?
Missing driver.
IIRC I believe you were supposed to install KIES and another Samsung driver...but I remember using my phone on a netbook without it and it worked...
Try installing the USB driver on the official samsung website? I can't post links yet or I would link it...

There can be multiple possible reasons. You've eliminated some of them. Could be a failing usb port on the phone, bad cable, etc.
If you can't get usb to work, you can flash back to stock using mobile odin. I assume you are rooted. Just download the one-click downloader to your phone over wifi, or use dropbox or something to get it onto your phone. Mobile odin will recognize and flash from the one-click downloader. There is even a guide in the general section on how to do this.

Creepy just posted this while I was getting you the link for the guide to return to stock with no PC: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1691659.
I returned to stock, and I think I figured out the problem as well.
The problem I am quite sure is the USB port on the phone. Like I said, when I keep the USB cable connected at a certain angle, it works just fine.
I will just have to live with it now I think because ODIN displays custom binary installed and the count is 2, so I dont think ATT will let me exchange the phone for a new one.

ehhh, its worth a try. Thats a hardware failure, the one that samsung is known for. Mine is starting to go out too.
I've returned 1 rooted phone with this issue, and warranty'd 1 rooted one that had a broken LCd.
These were Infuse's but same damn samsung problem.

Yeah I am surprised these hardware problem are so common.
No wonder most people are crazy about Apple sells so many iPhones
I had the very same issue as you are describing.
All you need to do is tweak the USB port a little. Did mine about 3 or 4 months ago and have not had to touch it since.
Use a small precision screw driver, fold a couple layers of Kleenex over the tip and gently bend it towards the screen side of the phone.
It WILL work perfect after that.

but then since it didnt work, I tried Kernel + cache + rooted UCKK6 package from:

Title says it all. I've tried re installing 20 times(not literally) and re installing the drivers, rebooting the phone, the computer, nothing. Had no problems with my S2. Anyone else having similar issues and a possible work around? Thanks.
I had the same issue and swore it was my phone. I tried different cables and even a factory reset, however I plugged in my phone into my work laptop and it synced up just fine.

Haven't tried removing them in safe mode. Sorry to sound stupid but what difference does it make removing them from safe mode? I'll give it a whirl but all the errors I get are on the phones end. I couldn't even copy music to my sdcard. I had to remove it, use the adapter and load it right on it from the port on my laptop.

Had the same issues as well. Tried different cables including the one in the box, deleted and tried to reinstall drivers, checked regedit, and finally called Samsung Advanced Tech support, what a joke by the way. After 20 minutes said our only option is to do a factory reset which is exactly what I didn't want to do. But, it is fixed for now...
I don't know how many times I posted because of this, but I think I'm done trying to fix it.
My phone, regardless of ROM, computer, or cable, etc, will isn't seen by any computer
I've installed all the drivers (through HTC sync) multiple times and on multiple computers. I've tried new roms, stock roms, nothing. New cables old cables, nothing. I've even formatted my SD cards and tried that way, nothing. I've tried the wireless ADB, and I get "<waiting for device>" which of course is never going to be found. I don't really think there's anything else I can do at this point but assume that it's my phone's USB port is damaged, can I replace that though?
Any ideas? And also someone could tell me about replacing hardware on this phone, that'd be great.
Thanks anyone.

All I know is that in my experience my phone stopped showing when I installed HTC drivers. It only came back up when I reinstalled windows. Try more computers before you determine it as a physical defect

I have tried 5, and I'm positive it isn't a problem with any of them.
If it charges over USB I have a hard time thinking the USB port has issues... There is one common denominator over the 5 computers you have tried
I had the same issue, unfortunately it was an issue with the USB port. I went through many, many cables and PCs ( xp, vista, win7) and I finally gave up. Called big red and got a warranty replacement

Computer 1: very old, used 3 other phones, all no problems, ReZound isn't seen

Computer 4: Not used, barely a year old, fresh driver install, ReZound still isn't seen

Nothing, the phone doesn't even realize it's being connected, although if you restart the phone with a cable plugged in (whether or not it's plugged into a wall or computer) the phone pops up with the options to charge only, etc. None of the options do anything though.

Why can't you? It's time consuming but you can. Run the ruu to get yourself back to stock. Lock the bootloader and s-on. Then you will be stock, unrooted and bootloader will say either relocked or tampered or whatever. Root it. S-off with junipbear but do not install the modified hboot. Then ruu again. You will now be completely stock, unrooted and bootloader will say locked. Worked perfectly fine for me.

So, I've been trying for months to fix this thing. Read every post I could find so I wouldn't have to ask for help. Yet here I am. On my knees.
The lowdown:
-Fascinate was not previously rooted.
-Odin will not recognize it.
-Had some issues with the drivers b/c of windows 8, but was able to install from zadig using advanced startup options to bypass driver verification.
-Tried to flash back to stock gingerbread with Heimdall 3 times. Said it was successful everytime. I did use the same usb port that I used for the drivers and it is on the motherboard. And I used stock cable.
-When I try to boot up the phone after flash attempts, some text scrolls across the screen and it says something about "data wipe not successful." It scolls quickly, so I'm not sure what all it says. (One of my first attempts invloved trying to install cwm, so maybe that's why scrolling txt? It looks similar)
-Now, it boots to the little android dude with a white box and an arrow pointing out of it. I'm developing murderous feelings towards him.
In conclusion, I am a noob but have tried to educate myself as much as possible. Please be gentle.
Any ideas out there?

OK. Last time that happened to me it was a cable issue. I had to use a cable i got from a store. Try to put it in download mode and plugging it into the wall before your computer.

The older androids are much easier to brick, the newer ones have more sophisticated bootloaders and other controls to make it less likely to brick. By the time you're hard-bricked, I've seen recovery from there but it's not looking great. You'd probably need some hardware based solution like jtag or the unbrickable. Check my post a few days ago about a really bad experience with that -- don't make my mistakes.
Thanks for the replies. I have a couple other cables, so I'll give them a try and also try dl mode in wall before the computer. I probably won't buy another cable since I'm due for an upgrade in a couple months and am surviving with a continuum (yikes!).
@ yunoworkandroid So much for the unbrickable fascinate, right? lol
that CASUAL does not work. Oh wait, let me guess, I don't have the right (1 of how many different ones suggested) usb driver, right? And I'm not in ADB, right? And I haven't tried different cables, and ports, and CADI on its own, and zadig, and usbdeview, and pulling the battery when it stalls in download mode (when CASUAL was still recognizing the phone, now neither CASUAL nor ODIN connect to it)? Sorry for the sarcasm, but I'm incredibly frustrated here. How does "one click" turn into a week of trying and trying and trying, and not only not making progress, but seemingly moving backwards where now I can't even get programs to connect? Is there something less messy, contradictory (seriously, the dev thread says "stock anything" but when trying the battery pull and reboot it goes off on me: OMFG WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING? I WARNED YOU! YOU NEED TO ROOT FIRST.) way to unlock? Or a more concise thread of troubleshooting CASUAL (And please, I don't need a link to the same dev thread I just referenced, again.)?
Well I guess the rest of us that followed Adam's thread and were easily unlocked and loading ROMs daily are magicians or something?
Try a different USB port and a different computer. I could not get it to work at all on one PC in Windows or Linux, but it worked first try as soon as I tried it on my laptop.

I'll get it to work or die trying, because Verizon deserves that middle finger, big time.

Yep ive been through this to and finnally got it to work on my moms laptop. Our desktop is the only one I can use odin on and my moms laptop is the only one I can use casual on. When I have some spare time (or feel like it lol) im gonna try loading up a fresh install on windows 7 on 1 of my spare hard drives and see what happens from there. But for now im not really woried about it, just gonna roll with the flow.

I feel your pain but hang in there and keep trying. It took me 3 days and several hours to find the right combination that finally worked. If you follow the dev thread for a few days, you'll see that most everyone having problems eventually gets it to work through a combination of trial and error and support from the devs.
If you haven't already, try the driver suggestions in the last several pages of the dev thread. This seems to be helping quite a few others. Another thing to try is running the Casual jar file from an admin command prompt instead of double clicking the file. This worked for me.
