Hi Community-
I'm having USB connection issues & was hoping for a little guidance.
Although I've read through multiple USB problem threads, I thought I'd start my own rather than hijack another member's thread.
In an effort to best help, I'll try to be thorough.
When I connect my Vibrant to PC, I get the "USB Device Not Recognized" and "Error Code 43" notifications & "Unknown Device" designation in Device Manager. Also, when I set updates to automatic, I get an "Drivers failed to install" notification (paraphrased).
I am running EDT's Project V with one of the Bullet 1.2/1.42 kernels. While I DO NOT believe the ROM or Kernel are causing issue, I will likely change both soon to confirm.
To solve the issue, I have attempted the following in USB Debugging and Mass Storage modes:
1. Plugged into 3 different PCs (2 running XP, 1 running W7).
a. Multiple usb ports in each.
2. Used 4 different micro USB cables (two are original Samsung cables).
3. Allowed windows to autdetect & install drivers (fails).
4. Installed 32 bit drivers & 64 bit drivers from multiple sources using the included setup files (uninstalled between).
5. Manually directed Windows to 32 bit and 64 bit drivers using Device Manager.
6. Attempted to connect to Kies Mini in Kies mode (uninstalled program after failure).
*As a side note, I successfully connected a Captivate & Fascinate (neither mine) to one of the PCs using one of the same Samsung cables I have tried.
*And another: I have not tried to connect the Vibrant recently, but have successfully connected the phone to multiple PCs in the past.
To this point, I have not tried:
1. Manually installing I9000 drivers.
2. Installing a new Froyo kernel and/or ROM.
3. Reverting to a previous Froyo nandroid that connected in the past.
4. Flashing an Eclair kernel then reverting to a stock Eclair nandroid.
Those will likely be the next steps, but if any users have had success using additional methods, any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Try this from Unlockr.com (was for HTC drivers but you can clear remaining Samsung drivers if any)
1. Download USBDeview
http://download.cnet.com/USBDeview/3000-2094_4-10614190.html
2. While the phone is still plugged in, open USBDeview and sort by manufacturer. Find all the Samsung drivers and delete them all.
3. Once all have been deleted, unplug the phone from the USB cable and plug it back in.
4. The correct drivers should reinstall automatically (check the drivers as they are installing, one should say ADB Device driver).

Downloaded USBDeview from the provided link. Program confirmed that I have already deleted all Samsung drivers.
When I left program running and plugged Vibrant back in, I got:
1. Same error notification (device has malfunctioned).
2. Windows did not try to download drivers (despite permission in Windows Update).
3. USBDeview did not recognize that a USB device had been plugged in (checked "Display devices without drivers" under Options & refreshed).
Thanks for the reply & a new method to attempt though! Something's gotta work eventually.
"device has malfunctioned"
"Drivers failed to install" notification"
edit: just letting you know my experiences with those failure notices. for me it had nothing to do with drivers and such. it was faulty hardware.
Ive had this problem with one of my MS Bluetrak mouses. The USB dongle fried and burned and messed up one of my usb2.0 ports on my laptop, leaving me with only one. Might be your usb port in your phone that's malfunctioned. My two vibrants have loose connections now because of the way it pulled left or right while charging. so it's either your usb port on pc or the phone has a bent chip or massive dust...idk
sorry i cant help. another alternative is to replace your usb part on your phone.

Yeah, looking that way, huh?
Anyway, thanks again.
I had a similar situation. I had 4 micro usb cables, two samsung stock ones (captivate/vibrant), 1 blackberry, 1 which I forgot where I got it from. Long story short, the blackberry one which coincidentally was the thickest cable of the bunch was the only one that consistently detected my phone. Hope that helps...

Haha, tried my thickest cable for 15 min again just to see.
Unfortunately, I'm getting close to giving up.
So:
1. No smartphone for a while ... Boo!
2. Or no Odin ever ... Double boo!!

THANK YOU!!!! I tried using my wife's cable and it did the trick! It sucks because I saw your comment a few days ago but it didn't register but this morning I am sleepless so decided to give it a shot again and voila!!! Thank you boss.
I have been working through this for a while as well. As far as I can tell, the problem is isolated to only my machine, even though there are a couple of different USB controllers within. Both cables I have and the CM7.1-nightly (various attempted) Vibrant I am using will connect to my laptop and my other desktop, but not to my Asus P8Z68-V Pro (either directly or through a hub, through the USB3 controller and USB3 + hub). I have also tried a separate stock Vibrant, same results. All I get on my uber-rig is charging
one thing that HAS worked (in a limited fashion) is using the hub built in to my Razer Tarantula keyboard, however its USB 1.1 and cant supply the proper voltage. So code 43 becomes code 10 (This Device Cannot Start [USB Hub Power Exceeded]), still no functionality.
fortunately my mobo has a built in bluetooth module and I can just push things around with that. slowly... Will be keeping an eye out for bios and chipset updates to see if they resolve, and in the future may try an add-in USB2 card
Hey guys just wanted to say thanks for all the help you provide on a daily basis, for all the people trying to unlock the potential in their phones. However with that being said I might have tried too hard and messed up my phones. I have a Samsung Vibrant SGH-T595 with 2.1 (update 1) updated officially by Samsung.
I rooted the phone, used clock work recovery mod and then downloaded and installed cyanogenmod 7.1 RC. However in the end I did not like so I tried to go back using my backed up copy created by clockwork mod. Doing this has now what you would call "soft bricked" my phone.
The phone is currently stuck on the Samsung boot screen when trying to power on the device. I am unable to put it into download mode via the three button setup, but I bought a USB jig and it sets it into download mode.
Everything seems great at this point but the Odin program is unable to recognize my phone. I have downloaded the official Samsung Kies, and 64 bit drivers as well for my windows 7 system but it is unable to detect my phone. I believe it maybe a defective USB issue with this phone but not sure since it can be charged through USB but I can't remember the last time I was able to connect it to the PC and transfer files via the USB cable.
My question is what else can I do other then sell it for scrap?
Try another USB cable and different ports. It will recognize it eventually.
As you have a windows 7 x64 bit version i guess Odin may need to be opened by giving Administrator permissions.
Try right clicking odin and click Run as administrator. I guess this should work.
Ran into this issue last night with my wife's Nook Color and moving some file and driver issues. Guess what? It was a bad cord. Actually used my Vibrant cord and it was instantly recognized. Yes sometimes it IS actually THAT simple.
I also suggest you go to the Dev section and download the AIO Toolbox (links are live again and don't forget the .Net files too). Uninstall the drivers you have installed and run to toolbox. It has all the correct drivers, pit/tar files and Odin. It is an invaluable tool.
Sidenote: Kies is notorious for hardbricking devices. You should stay away from it altogether.

Exactly. And that is how i tried updating my vibrant to froyo and ended up hard bricking it..
Yeah like someone in here said, download aio vibrant toolkit.. its a surefire way to know your drivers are good and right.. once youve ruled them out, try a diff usb port and cable (mentioned above as well). If nothing works, then you may begin to entertain the idea that your phone is in difficult position.
Probably not hardbricked tho, vibrants are very resilient; just keep trying.
Then ttheres jtag and unbrickable mod if youre absolutely sure lifes over
Sent from a cell tower to the XDA server to you.
Thanks guys I ended up recycling my phones cause nothing I did worked. I did try AIO toolbox got the drivers, tried different cables. My SG II is able to be recognized by odin 1.85 with no issues but not my vibrant. I believe it is an issue with the vibrant's usb port. I originally rooted it by doing the update.zip fix from its external sd card, did not use my usb cable at that time. My other vibrant is completely hard bricked since it wont power on with two different fully charged batteries. Anyway thanks again and next time I will research more before modding my phones.
Hey OP,
I did the same exact thing as you and soft bricked it in the same manner. Then when I tried to get Odin to recognize the phone it wouldn't with my Samsung cable. I thought I was out of luck but I went and bought a USB cable made my Belkin from Meijer and Odin recognized it! I looked at the Samsung cable and the Belkin cable and the black plastic inside the microUSB in the Belkin is thicker than the Samsung. I think that helps create a tighter contact between phone microUSB and the cable. I thought I was screwed like you and I fixed the issue with a new cable!! That simple
I used the Samsung Galaxy S II usb cable which looks like it has a very tight connection with the contacts like you said. Thanks anyway I will try that brand of cable, if I ever run into that issue.
OK i had a Sony Xperia ARC and was really fed up with the 1 successful on15 tries connection to PC, so i said to myself " Self, it's time to switch phones " and went and got me a brand spanking new GS3 . Get home, all happy, plug in the phone and guess what ? F&*(*& no connections, fraking USB/ADB/MTP drivers not installing, failing and all that s*&@.
Tried re-installing drivers, Allshare, Kies, even tried Samsung G3 Toolkit , nothing works. Phone will not connect through USB cable.
I am about to return this Android bulls*&$ and goback to an iPhone , i really don't wnat to but , at LEAST they are able to connect to computer.....
Can anyone help ?
I am with Rogers, ver 4.0.4, SGH-I747M
Primary advice: Sell the S3 and purchase iPhone (recommended).
Optional advice:
-Uninstall any unnecessary Android phones drivers. Including Sony drivers.
-Reboot computer.
-Download and install Samsung USB driver: http://org.downloadcenter.samsung.c...le_T999_GSIII_Samsung_USB_Driver_v1_4_6_0.exe
-Connect phone using Samsung USB cable that came with it.
-Transfer file.
*Tips: If connected to a low powered USB jack, use a powered USB hub. Avoid using cheap USB cables.
Other: ADB and MTP are two different things.
Bonus points: Drag and drop a single photo or music file to iPhone using Windows Explorer without requiring iTunes, then view/playback file on iPhone.
Maybe the problem is your computer and not the phones...

First off,
What type of computer are you using? I'm guessing PC, so what version of windows? Win Vista and above should automatically pull the drivers from the internet for MTP.
Have you checked the usb port to make sure it is not faulty? do other devices work fine through that port?
If so, uninstall any android related software and reboot, then install samsung kies. If the drivers still fail to load there is something wrong on the pc.
you had the problem with your previous phone as well, sound like dodgy usb port on the computer to me

You are in the International forum, go to the US forum as our phones differ. Not for usb off course but for rooting,kernels, roms and stuff.

Ok, well first things first: it takes time to get used to a different manufacturer
Second: Stop freaking out, and chill a moment, you're just making everything worse
Now, read carefully (Was just about to write listen lol)
Take your phone in your hand. Plug it into the computer.
Read the guide in my description! ADB/WIN8) This will also work on windows Vista and 7, it has helped quite a few people
People!, I'm about to pull all my hair out on this one
Vibrant is soft bricked in a boot loop after a incomplete flash, I am able to get it into download mode but both my windows machines say USB device isnot recognized, and thus, I cant use ODIN to return to stock. When I try to manually point windows to the samsung drivers I get nothing…
So far I have tried drivers from:
-Bay_wolf's AIO Vibrant Toolbox 2.5
-USB drivers for vibrant from samsung support site
-Drivers from samsung keyes
Side notes that might help: I was perviously using a Hellybean Rom. My device displays "Galaxy S gt-9000" on boot... not sure when that came to be but maybe some rom changed some important recognition stuff??...
I found this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1008383 but no help...
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
Try a different USB cable. This happens more than you'd think. Even cables that have worked just fine hundreds of times.
Also.... Locate the drivers in system/device manager and delete them manually and try to install them again. Unplug device and install fresh ones from either aio toolbox or Kies, then plug phone back in.
Best of luck!

Thanks a ton for reply but, sadly, no dice.
Tried connecting the phone, getting the "unrecognized device" prompt, finding "unknown device" in device manager, right clicking to uninstall. rebooting my machine, using various install methods to re-install drivers, re-connecting, and nothing.. same issue...
I lost the original cable a while back, but can't accept that NONE of the other 5 cables used are all broke... specially if the computer recognizes something going on... is it worth buying a new one?
Losing hope here, been like this for 4 days now, think it's time to go get a new phone. :crying:
Even so, it would have been nice to get what was a perfectly working phone back if only to keep it as a mp3 payer.
If anybody in New York, NY has a working odin set up that can do this for me, I have a 6 pack of your favorite beer with your name on it.
It could be a hardbrick such as bootloader getting corrupted that happened to my Sony Xperia Play (now an expensive paper weight).
I assume you boot into download mode by holding the two volume buttons, then connect the cable? Have you tried on a different PC? It can also be the weak powered USB port on the PC. Also when you uninstall the Samsung driver, check the option to also delete USB driver and uninstall any drivers. Also which version of the driver are you using, have you tried version Samsung USB Driver 1.5.3? And the drivers from here: http://www.samsung.com/us/support/owners/product/SGH-T959ZKATMB#
For what its worth, the gt i9000 screen appears after your on a custom GB boot loader and Odin back to stock (or probably Odin flashing any other ROM) you can change it by flashing the GB boot loader again. My phone says its a i9000 too, but I'm just about lazy enough to not bother changing it, lol.
So that's unrelated.

Ok, faith momentarily restored. But I have questions:
-What do you mean when you say "check the option to also delete USB driver and uninstall any drivers"? I dont get such a prompt from right clicking on "unknown device" and selecting uninstall? Is there another method to uninstalling drivers?
-In the link attached, I can only find "Device(Install),USB Driver (Software) (ver.1.0)" not the 1.5.3 version mentioned. What am i doing wrong here? currently searching google for the 1.5.3 but finding nothing.
I get into download mode by holding volume- up + power. Have 2 PCs ( win xp and win 7) and a mac running mountain lion (but never ever have been able to get Heimdall to work, so devoting time to odin.)
Thank you for the time + help, guys, I really do appreciate it in the time of utter un-nerdness.
If the device is already installed it will have a check box that said "Delete the driver software for this device." If its unknown then obviously not. By "uninstall any driver", I mean uninstall any Android drivers you current have installed and reboot before you reinstall the new driver.
Although I doubt it will make a difference than the one I linked above, you can try the Samsung driver version 1.5.3: http://www.mediafire.com/?r0uc3h413qcy80z
If you did manage to get into download mode and see this: http://images.google.com/search?num=10&hl=en&site=&tbm=isch&source=hp&q=download+mode
Then it mean there is a very good chance you can restore the phone, if you can find a computer to recognize it and Odin to see a COM port.
I definitely think it would be worth the money to go buy an OEM USB cord. I can't tell you how many times I have seen this and a new USB is the fix.

OK guys...
My friend, who also owns a Vibrant, let me borrow the cable that came with the phone for the last 2 days.
Tried to make ODIN work on both PCs at home, gave Heimdall a shot on my mac, even hijacked a computer at work for the better part of the morning and freshly installed USB drivers 1.5.3 before connecting. All for nothing... “Unknown device” across the board....
At first I felt that with being able to get into download and have SOME kind of a reaction from connecting to PC had to be a good sign. Almost completely convinced that there is some unknown, unworkable hardware problem present. Definitely, officially, unremarkably out of ideas here.
Nothing is beautiful and everything hurts.
Last thoughts? Options at this point?
Also, tried One-click Unbrick tool on mac. I got a "is your phone plugged in, is it on download mode?" error, but anyone reading this down the line with a similar problem should check it out.

I can't get mine to work either. Closest thing I've gotten is using omap4boot-for_optimus-v1.21
its different from some of the others, in that its a blue background and it doesnt actually list the p769. However, after selecting option 5, and following onscreen instructions, I was able to get my front capacitive buttons to light up, but nothing else. I can't enter S/W upgrade mode, I can't get LG recovery tool to recognise my phone, I am absolutely **** out of luck. I dont know if using omap4boot-for_optimus-v1.21 will help or hurt you, but im just explaining my experiences.
Have you installed the omap driver for fastboot?
Thanks for your replies. Windows 8.1 is installing the OMAP driver and when I try to update it, Windows says it has determined that I have the best one installed already or some BS like that. That seems to be the last piece of the puzzle. I am not getting it to use the fastboot commands and when I am in the LG upgrade thing, it cannot connect on the first of the three calls so it says to check the USB cord and connection. ( I have tried 5-6 cords including the OEM cord ).
Thanks again for your help. I will uninstall the OMAP drivers when I get home and see if I can't get the ones I downloaded to install.
I don't have Windows 8.1 so I'm not sure how to address the driver issue. I reer as wel.commend you uninstall the driver, both of them. The one under Android Phone in the device manager and the one called TI Boards in the device manager.
1. Uninstall all OMAP drives (Two of them)
2. Disconnect from the internet (to preventing Windows update from selecting its own driver.
3. Follow steps to fastboot. When connecting your phone have device manager open and right click the device that is flashing on and off (you will see the device manager refreshing and stuffs. It will dissappear after about two seconds but if you get the right click in and the option to install the driver, do it, point to the fastboot driver.
4. Disconnect phone after driver install and pull the battery.
5. Fastboot again, using option 1.
6. Quickly install same driver on the new device in device manager. Be quick.
7. Disconnect, Pull battery
8. Fastboot again
9. Flash ICS U and X
10. Make sure your LG drivers are installed.
11. Reboot PC.
12. Now you should be able to get into SW UPGRADE MODE with the plugging in of the USB
Should not lock up at 15%, make sure you have drivers installed for this.
13. Should work and reboot to home screen automatically.
14. If you really must, fastboot again and install JB U and X
