Hi I have a problem and cant find the answer in these forums. I have a 512mb 4gig TS.
Its stuck on the boot screen. So I turn it off and follow the instruction on flashing stock Rom. It states I have to install MT65x3 USB VCOM drivers, done that. Then If ive read it properly using_SP_Flash_Tool_v5.1352.01 as soon as I connect TS to PC via USB the flashing should automatically just start doing its stuff, but it doesn't. Nothing happens and the pc wont recognize the TS as being connected to my Win 7 64 pc . My TS is stuck on the boot up screen. What am I missing?
Thanks Dean

Patience?
If you pull battery, connect to USB and see the device show up, it is not bricked. (Other say you cannot brick these devices but they are fore flaky.)
If the device is not MediaTek, then the drivers are likely incorrect.
Other than that, just try different USB ports, different PCs, SPFT v3 until it works.
I had to try 5 PCs and over 50 flashes before it was updated correctly.

The vibrant was running CM7 for a few hours until I noticed that it wouldn't charge via USB. It wouldn't charge from the wall outlet nor when plugged into a computer (the computer did recognize that it existed but didn't have the drivers for it).
I tried to recover it but then the process failed and it was stuck in boot menu. The vibrant only loads to the first splash screen. I can put it into download mode however ODIN doesn't recognize it. Nothing shows up. I've installed the Samsung Vibrant drivers and I've tried Kies Mini however Windows 7 32bit won't recognize the device. How can I install the stock ROM if Odin doesn't recognize it?
if u can get into dl mode but cant get pc to recognize ur phone use aio toolbox or get a usb jig that may help!!
or since your on CM7 ..try the Nexus S drivers and see if it recognizes it.
Could it be that maybe USB Debugging is turned off? At this point there is no way I can boot up to turn it on.
All of the drivers I install end up not being installed correctly, I get errors.

This. You can find them here.
CyanogenMod 7 for Vibrant Q&A
Just press Ctr+F and search ''Nexus S'' and you will find the instructions on how to get them.
I'm having some difficulty. I don't have a phone under my device drivers. All that's showing up is PCI Simple Communications Controller. I click on update driver and direct it to the SDK. Nothing happens.
Edit:
Downloaded the Intel ME: Management Engine Interface driver for the PCI problem. It seems to be fixed. Now my phone is showing up as unknown device. Working on it some more.
Firstly I apologise if this has been covered anywhere - I read a load of posts and did a load of searches but came up empty handed about this specific issue.
I bought a Galaxy Ace (GT-S5830 Baseband:S5830NEKA3 OS:2.2.1) as a dev device and it's been working fine up until today, and at some point it decided it doesn't want to be able to connect to my computers. I've tried three different computers, two different operating systems, and ever tried installing Kies (urk) with no luck.
The phone can charge over USB, saying that it's charging over AC, but that's all that happens.
I can't boot in to recovery mode as holding the power+middle button+vol up just gives me a ramdump message.
Can anyone help me out?

When phone is turned off. Press and hold home+power/lock button untill it reaches recovery menu.
Check - that works. Thanks.
I'm now unsure as to how to proceed - neither adb devices nor fastboot devices are reporting anything back.
Connect device to pc. Open device manager (windows). Remove all drivers related to the ace and Samsung.
Remove the device and reboot the pc. Then connect the device. Windows update will detect the device and install the necessary drivers. If it doesn't automatically do that then open up device manager and install them manually by right clicking on the device and selecting update drivers from internet.
From the Galaxies to your Ace...!!
Thanks for your reply.
In windows there's no sign of any Samsung or Galaxy Ace drivers. Plugging it in to my Kubuntu machine gives me identical lsusb results as when not plugged in.
Have done a data wipe, checked that USB debugging is on and tried different cables
think it's screwed.
Think I could stick a ROM on the SD card and flash it? Would that work?

hmm.. kies didnt work right? So i guess only option IMO would be card reader or CWM
Yep , the phone's USB port is frayed
This was sent from a Galaxy Ace. Problem?
my phone will not be recognized by the computer no matter what i do. It recognizes my friends i777 just fine in odin and as a storage device so it isnt my drivers. With mine it only makes the connection sound and says device drivers failed to install. I am running shostock 3, philz kernel and windows 7. I have tried everything and i am out of ideas, please help. thanks
Install Kies fresh, install android sdk and update it, reboot, try different usb ports.
Also u have to disable usb debugging and let it install those drivers, enable it and let it install those drivers and boot into download mode and do a regular reboot and let it install those. Always worked for me after following those steps.
If he's friends phones works. Then I think it's the phone usb. My own phone has the same issues but my usb on phone is messed up. Says charging while its not chargin and that happens I get the whole Device not recognize and fail to install. Try cleaning your usb with 99% Isopropyl of the instructions above this post don't work out.

I downloaded the samsung drivers correctly because my pc recognizes any other samsung but no matter what i've tried it says usb device not recognized for my galaxy. Im stuck in a boot loop and the only thing i can access is download mode when i plug it in the computer. I can't access anything with the battery in, it just flashes the galaxy logo over and over. Thank you for you time in advance
Hello everybody,
I have a problem with my Samsung i5500. Every time i try to connect it to a PC it is not detected as a mass memory device and gos straight into charging mode just like i would connect the phone to the socket charger. The PC does not recognize the phone, it doesn't do anything, just like i never connected the phone through the USB port, but the phone is charging.
I tried to connect the phone on 3 different computers using 3 different micro-usb cables. On all 3 computers I installed the latest drivers for the i5500 and the same problem occurs every time.
Can anyone please help me with an advice. What should I do in order to get my phone connected and recognized by the PC?
In case you it helps you to know, I am using the stock 2.2 ROM and the phone is not rooted.
Thank you in advance.
i have EXACTLY the same problem, and it is not drivers problem. Any advice?
hey guys, This is the link to download for drivers.
http://d-h.st/iPk
If you use windows 8 or 8.1 then you will have to extract the file you download from the link above and then right click on the .exe file and go to 'properties', in that go to 'compatibility' and in that choose your operating system as "WINDOWS 7" and check the option below 'always run as administrator' and there you go. Double click on .exe file and follow steps. Install drivers. No need to restart the pc also. (if your phone also do not detect after installing these drivers only then restart).
Can you just try this out? I know it is maybe not driver problem but still you can try this.
My phone is on version S124. It is dead right now. Only red light shows when connected to charger and it turns of after some time.
This problem happened before also, I took it to Lenovo service center, they did something and my phone was back on. It is out of warranty, I had to pay for servicing. This has happened again, how can I fix it at my home?
I have SP flash tools, S124 ROM and Windows 7 PC.
Thanks.

Hi stympy!
I tried that exact thing at first. The problem is it does not recognize my phone on connecting via USB cable. Drivers were correctly installed as I could successfully flash firmware few days before. Now when I connect it to PC via USB cable, it does not show up in device manger, nor is it recognized by SP flash tool (stuck at Searching). Red LED turns on connecting to USB on PC/Power. I have tried all USB ports on my PC and also tried different USB cables.
I have also tried the "plug-in then reset via button on back" method. Not working.
Any idea what's going on?

Hi. Try this:
Uninstall curent drivers.
Reboot computer or laptop.
After reboot open device manager window
Look om ports area on device manager
Plug the phone now
Something with MTK69XX should appear.
If this appear you are on the good track.
If not tell me and we look for something else!

OK, tried this. When I plug in a device, like my printer, or my other android phone, Device manager window automatically refreshes device list. This does not happen when I plug-in my p780.
