I've been trying to figure this out for a few hours now. Accidentally wiped the internal storage on my phone. Now it just stuck on the HTC boot screen. My bootloader is still unlocked and I do have access to TWRP. However my main problem lies in the fact that no matter what I try my phone will not connect with usb, When it does my computer doesn't recognize it. I've tried reinstalling drivers, restarting my computer and switching usb ports. Any help in solving this would be appreciated.

You need to do a sideload...
under twrp go to advance and adb sideload.
You could look over the forum about it.

Thanks for your help! After a little more research used the method you suggested and it worked flawlessly. Appreciate you pointing me in the right direction.

I have been posting (and have had some nice people try to help) in the How to Recover Fascinate from any Brick thread for about a week and can't seem to find a solution. I have also searched the internet high and low looking for a solution with no success. Hopefully someone here has had the same issues and can point me in the right direction.
I rooted the Fascinate using a one click method and was able to get a Titanium backup but could not get into the proper recovery to do a system image. Stupidly, I flashed SP Recovery from within ROM Manager. From that moment on I when the phone is turned on it gets to the "Samsung" screen and locks.
I did my research and found out all I needed to do to fix is install ODIN and reflash the stock ROM again. The problem is that ODIN will not recognize the phone. I start ODIN, pull the phone battery, plug the phone into USB cable, push volume down to get the phone into download mode (Yellow Triangle). I keep getting USB Device Not Recognized errors from Win 7 (64-bit).
I tried installing Heimdall to load the correct drivers but it doesn't see the device either. I can connect my Droid or Droid 2 and Heimdall sees immediately so I know it is not a problem with the software or cable.
I have tried to install the correct USB drivers (even the ones listed on this site). I tried installing Kies and it doesn't see the phone either.
Since the phone is looping at the "Samsung" screen I can't change any settings in the phone as some have suggested. I really do not have any more ideas other that to use this phone as a very expensive door stop. Hopefully, someone here can help. Thanks in advance!!!

Control Panel/ User Account/ User Account Control settings- set to- Never notify- restart computer.
Should recognize phone. Reset to default when done and restart. Windows crap!
Thanks but this setting has always been set to "Never Notify"......any other ideas...please
I don't know nothing about it but the guy said " reset to default and restart (again)??
Sent from my SCH-I500 using xda premium
Followed the directions exactly. I think the OP wanted me to reset to default after I was done flashing. This is so strange....I figure if the people on XDA can't figure this out the phone is doomed.
Have you tried a different USB plug on the computer? Or a different USB cord? Or a different computer?

I had to use a laptop to access my Fascinate because my desktop wouldnt even show it as unrecognized hardware, it was like it didnt even exist... I went in device manager and uninstalled all my usb devices, rebooted with everything but mouse/kb unplugged, installed SDK drivers for Nexus S, rebooted again (probably not needed but better safe than sorry) and I can now Odin into my phone... Hope this helps ya man... sucks bricking a phone
The Heimdall drivers won't work. Kies won't recognize it if it won't boot. There should be an option in Kies to install the driver. Drop down box in the top left corner. Did you try to install your driver that way?
have you installed the driver yet? samsung driver?
So I tried the S off and I failed a couple of times with the wire trick. My timing was more than likely off. I re-ran the program and tried again. After it rebooted to check my alcohol level like it had the time before it could not find the device. It just kept counting to 45 secs over and over and kept asking me to check device drivers and adb and fastboot. And it worked fine before. Before I even started I checked adb devices.
Now the phone boots to the juopunutbear screen and it when I try to run the program it says that the device is not detected. So I rebooted in hboot and tried to run some adb or fastboot commands and the phone is not detected at all. I tried my mac too and no luck. I tried a different usb cable and no luck either.
So no I cant push anything to my phone and its just reboots to the juopunutbear screen. I think I bricked it. I dont know what to do. I cant push files to the phone. Any help?

I'm not sure what's happening with your computer not seeing the phone, but if you have a microsd adaptor you could get a stock RUU onto your card and flash back to stock.
Edit: or just your boot.img. If you can get into hboot you're not bricked.
Part fix
As previous poster said, put a PH...IMG with boot on it and you'll be able to boot up again. Yours is third phone reported here with USB problem after failed S-0ff.
I can boot my rom, but no radio or wifi, No charging, and no computer can see it for fastboot. Hoping for cure soon.
Thanks guys. I am downloading an RUU now. Hopefully it works. I hope the usb connection is not fubar'd ...but i took the risk so its on me.
Same thing happened to me. I just finished uninstalling HTC Sync and Android SDk, then reinstalled both. Now the drivers are working properly, and computer sees my phone again. This should help.
***edit: this process helped with my computer finding software drivers to connect phone to computer. Before- "Windows could not find drivers for Android device" (device manager in windows)
I could never get it to work in the first place. Cleanflash finds and flashes to it just fine but the s off just can't see my phone once it reboots.

If the phone is rebooting to the screen with the arrow when you press power to enter fastboot then try going to recovery, your regular recovery will probably not show up but another stock hboot menu will. Then try selecting fastboot there and see if you can run fastboot commands without rebooting to arrow screen.
Sent from my HTC Vigor
Success getting it to reboot with the boot.img from the rom I was running....But unfortunately the usb is fried. Can not charge the phone or connect to a computer. So I guess that is another potential risk with using this method.
Ouuuuch :/

I really Need Help! My computer wont recognize my tablet in fastboot mode, and my tablet wont read my micro SD card, also when i turn it on normally it stays at splash screen and when its plugged in to the computer the computer starts installing the drivers and it fails to install each time. I go to troubleshooting options and it states code 10. which states device cannot start.
I Have looked for ways around this, like manually installing the drivers, and my computer wont let me. Also the tablet can go to both: bootloader, and Clockworkmod recovery.
I factory reset my tablet so I cannot install anything, untill i get it to connect to my computer.
I am running Windows 7 64-bit on my computer!
Any help is very much appreciated!
Thanks!

Did you install the naked driver from here? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1426502 if not do that first once you get that working... then you should be able to fastboot to the pc... next thing I would concider is going to twrp recovery instead of cwm....either go for an older version or go the full gambit of nvflash then install the latest twrp... after that you should be set.....I can comment more on it if you need it....

What do you see in device manager with the tablet plugged into the pc and running in fastboot?
Maybe this helps
I had a similar issue but my tablet couldn't be identified by windows, at first i thought it was my drivers so i tried to install new ones but windows wouldn't let me stating the same code 10. At the end it was a defective usb cable, i bought a new one and everything worked all right the first time i plugged it in. And by the way i was stucked at the CWM loop. Hope this helps and sorry for my bad english.

Im not sure if it is a bad usb cable, i think it is my computer because my computer doesnt even recognize my iphone and i have itunes installed,
i think it is partially due to a funky computer for me.

Hi all,
I have a Rooted, WanamLite v6.3 ZSEMC1 ROM with AdamKernel 2.2.1+. i9300.
I updated recently from another previous version of the same ROM because I had noticed that my USB functionality has not been working. Specifically, the MTP application. Soon further found that my computer does not recognise ADB commands at all, as I used to install .apks from my computer quickly with adb install.
Odin does not even recognise my phone, even when in download mode. The only thing I havent tried yet is ADB in CWM Recovery, but im 99% sure that wont work still.
When I plug the micro-usb plug in it charges fine, but no data connection seems to occur. No windows detection, No USB device connected in the notifications bar.
I have tried:
-Backing up
-Installing vanilla ROM
-Installing stock ROM
-Using different computer with drivers
-Reinstalling Samsung Drivers
-Tried using Kies for the drivers
-Changing SD cards
-Power Cycling phone removing sim and micro-sd cards. Turning on after some time.
-Cleaning the micro-usb port on the phone with dental picks.
Im pretty much out of ideas apart from trying to organise to send it for repairs, after un-rooting.
If I was to re-root do you think this would solve the problem?
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks :good:
UPDATE: I fixed this by using Mr. Despairs suggestion.
Power off, pull battery, SIM, SD card. Power cycled the power button with no battery in it.
Waited about 1-2 minutes.
Battery in boot straight to Download Mode.
Only got it to recognise once in about 15 tries.
Thanks again Mr Despair!
You could also try another cable. Or what I read in another german forum: Shut down your phone, take the battery out and in and reboot. Then reboot into download mode and plug in your phone. Then your PC should search for drivers.
Do this as a colleague says Mr. Despair replace the cable. Often dirt in the connector. Clean the connector on the phone.
Also check ...
Also check on a different computer/port - it could be a problem with the USB drivers on your computer.
Probably the safest test would be to cross-test combinations of 2-3 computers vs 2-3 phones.

He already wrote that he tried more PCs. He would have very bad luck if it is on both. But trying doesn't cost. He shoule then also try to plug it direct into the USB ports and not through a hub.
I have also tried two other cables which both previously worked.
Ill give the hard reboot into download mode a try.
No PC recognises it at all at the moment.
I have tried all USB ports, directly not through a hub or whatnot. This includes other computers too.
Im open to any other suggestions.
Thanks for the help so far
Have you installed KIES?
KIES and ODIN cannot co-exist.
Install ONLY Samsung USB drivers then run ODIN.
As for installing apks, you shouldn't need to install via adb. You can just copy to sdcard and run from there.

I had used ODIN without KIES existing on my system.
I installed KIES to try and get it to read my phone for once.
I used ADB to install .apks when I had ADB running. I have the problem now that I cant use it, because my phone MTP, ADB or even Download Mode wont read my phone. All from different computers etc.
:crying:
Sounds more and more like a hardware failure. What about reboot to CWM then in mounts and storage to mount the USB drive? Can your PC recognize it this way?

Yeah im thinking hardware too. If I throw it into CWM and try to mount /sdcard, it doesnt to anything. Nothing changes it just stays permanently on mount /sdcard. (Its not mounting).
Mounting external_sd works but its not helping me.
Anyone ever returned a SGS3 to factory or phone provider?

Pull Battery, SIM and SD. Press Power buttons a few times and let it sit for about 1 minute.
Battery in and boot straight to Download mode. Worked once in about 15 tries. Reflashed everything and it works now!

I bought my One with bootloader unlocked but the guy who sold me the phone unrooted the phone before shipping and i've tried to follow the rooting and the unlocking bootloader through fastboot methods but every time i open sdk manager it just says i have to update, i update then it says restart, and no mater what i do, cmd just keeps telling me fastboot is not a recognized command... blah blah... short question is, is there a rooting app i can purchase or if anyone can give me a helping hand?
Edit: I have followed the steps exactly, switched off fastboot in power menu, and powered off entered fastboot from bootloader, plugged in device, entered cmd and tried it but i get the aforementioned error.
Edit 2: I made the folder and placed my files and it seemed to go a little smoothly but it says waiting on device and just hangs there. The computer is still not recognizing the phone, i still get USB not recognized. try reconnecting the device....
Oh also, trying to install a recovery to this, so i can root... but just an easy way
Please help me, someone... the bootloader says unlocked btw. but fastboot does nothing when trying to flash via cmd.
if you are running windows 8 you may need to install the correct drivers, i had the same problem when i tried to root my M7 and im runinng windows 8, if youd like the drivers, PM me i cant remember where i got them from, but i have them still. Also if you can try switching USB ports, i had to use a different one and everything went kinda smooth after that.
