I did an NVflash after struggling to load VEGaN 7 for a couple days figuring it was the partition issue that I have read about. Flash went off without a hitch - or so I thought.
I went to flash VEGaN 7 again, but my computer would not recognize connection via USB. Attempted to login to clockwork mod but instead I get message - "booting recovery image".
Thinking a factory reset might somehow free up my USB connection I did a factory reset - now I'm stuck in a bootloop.
So, to review--
I can't connect to PC via USB, Access CWM, or get past the bootloop.
BTW - I noticed while looking for options to connect to USB that it appeared my Internal and external SD cards switched locations after the NV flash. External, although not accessible was 12.9 gig and my internal showed slightly less than 1 gig.
Anyway, is there any hope for my G tab - I have never been so frustrated over such a simple process in my entire life.
sorry looked for a way to move this post to the correct location...

When you NVFlashed, did you use the version with or without CWM. If you did the version without CWM then that would explain no CWM.
When you say you can't connect to PC are you talking about APX mode (NVflash)?
Go here http://viewsonic-gtablet-for-dummies.webs.com/ and follow the instructions for CODE RED step by step. Make sure download everything via the links on the dummies site to make sure you get the right stuff.

No I used the version with CWM, which is why I was suprised to see the "booting recovery image" and then it just continued to boot. I tried both APX via USB and a typical USB connection after loading --where PC gave error "device not identified".

So, just to verify, you hold Vol(-) and press/hold Power, 3 birds appear & screen goes black...that is APX mode. Connect usb cable to PC & what does the PC say?
USB device not recognized -
Still having that problem with USB device not recognized.
However, I have gone to ...for dummies site and reflashed device using the "flash USB driver" to temorarily gain access with USB connection. With NVFlash I Am back to having clockworkMod and working GTab with original software 1.1
Again going to flash rom - but Upon connecting USB i get the message "USB device not recognized" - I have attmpted to mount USB through CWM, but still getting that same error.

If your tab boots, you don't have to use CWM/mount & storage to transfer your rom to the internal sd. Put your external in your PC, copy the rom to it, move back to the tab & copy to your internal. There are also other ways to transfer it but we can talk about that later if you like.
If that works you can still flash your rom & then we can work on getting the usb up.
So, the usb not recognized is when you try to connect after your tab is either all booted up or in CWM mount & storage (and not when you are in APX mode doing NVFlash)?
If you look in device manager what does it show?
Try connecting your tab to a differet PC & see it detects it correctly?
If it works on another PC, you may want to tryto use USBDview http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/usb_devices_view.html to look at the USB dvices that are connected or have been connected to your PC. You can find the gTab devices in the list & then use it's command line options (see instructions included with it) to remove(uninstall) them from the PC. Then you can reconnect to see if it will detect & install the driver correctly.
Can't use external load on pc to transfer rom. No card access.
USB did work in apx mode following instructions in code red. I thought of usin another pc and duplicated the failed results there.
Device manager showed yellow exclamation mark and would'n't install any driver I pointed it to (both computers) Unknown USB device.
Btw I want to thank you for trying to help me out on this. You people who lend your knowledge are commendable.

OK, try this. We are going to use Mobisynapse to wirelessly transfer files to & from your PC to the tab.
Download mobisynapse from my dropbox http://dl.dropbox.com/u/36150173/Mobisynapse.exe & install on your PC.
From your gTab, download Mobisynapse system tool from my dropbox to your tab & install http://dl.dropbox.com/u/36150173/com.mobisystems.office_registered-1.apk.
Start the app on the tab, click More & select Connect to PC to switch it to ON.
Start the Mobisynapse on your PC, it shoud see your tab, once it sees it click connect.
From there, go to the Files icon & you should see an Explorer type screen. PC on the left, tablet on the right. You can transfer files in either direction. Transfer your Rom files or whatever you want.
Let me know when you have downloaded the apps from my dropbox so I can remove them.

I downloaded them and installed, on tab it shows up as officesuite. When I run it "more" is not an option. On pc it simply says (can not connect to android device) under "choose devices". I did turn on USB debugging on tab.

Do I need to create a "roms" folder, and is it supposed to be the zip folder or the files within the zip folder?

It's easier that way, that way you can easily differntiate it from other files/folders. If you create the folder, then put the zipped rom inside the folder.
I turned connect to pc on. Running mobisynapse on pc it sees the tab just fine. I click connect and it pulls up info about tab, BUT when I go to files tab --- right side of screen is greyed out. It won't transfer files.

Third icon from the left...looks like a little file cabinet.
lol, yeah 3rd from left...
It seems to connect just fine, but under the file tab I can only see files from the PC on the left - the right side doesn't show any files and all buttons are greyed out. Again, under the home tab I have access to the GTab just fine. I can see apps, contacts, etc. but under file tab - no files on right side and buttons are not accessable.
So do you see the left (PC side)? Is the right side populated at all & what is in the drop down folder box (should be /sdcard)!
Got a U9510, D Quad (unlocked and unbranded outright) (didn't see my phone listed so posting in this section)
Worked great, rooted easily. Installed Chainfire 3D, was all fine. Uninstall as decided I dont need it.
Then stupidly decided to try reinstall and try Beta EGL driver after browsing and finding some EGL level support.
Now the screen is blank, no lights, no boot logo, nothing, and I want to cry. (Though I have not been able to pull the battery)
Plug in via USB still shows up as Android device etc.
I dont know how to pull the battery on this phone, it's not easily accessible, I took the screws out of the back plate and tried to lift up the plate but couldn't see how to do it, so just put the screws back in.
Also it's new, so no SD card yet, internal only.
USB Setting is default to storage device, but internal doesn't show up on that setting, it does on MTP.
What steps to recovery?
Most similar issue I've found is this, but only seems like the same symptoms, not same cause:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2081388
No mention of EGL, and I had no problems with Chainfire until I tried EGL.
Anyway to uninstall the driver over USB? And anyone know how to get the backplate off without damage to pull the battery?
I don't have anything critical on the phone storage I can't replace easily, have flashed roms before etc, but prefer to recover/undo if possible. And again with the storage issue, how would I gain access to the internal storage without the screen on?
edit: The removable disk drive shows up for the SD card (but obviously inaccessible since no microSD in phone), but I'm poor till wednesday night, so cant go out and get a microSD to attempt a fix yet.
HiSuite can't connect to the phone (HiSuite USB mode needs to be turned on OR USB debugging, debugging is) so I presume the phone is not in a fully powered on state running the OS (unable to start graphics driver etc).
edit2: The manual states if I want to change the battery to contact an authorised service provider (!), but can hold the power button for more than 10 seconds to force a restart (but I wonder if that will work in its current state?)
Okay I attached my logcat file if that helps.
Hey guys,
I have my Galaxy Tab 10.1 a few years now and it's still working great! I've rooted it many times and installed many custom roms on it. So I am very familiar with Odin, clockworkmod etc. Today, I decided to root my tab again to install a custom rom. So first things first, I installed the usb driver for my tab (GT-P7510), it's the Samsung Mobile Usb Driver for mobile phones version 1.4.8.0. After installing the driver I plugged in my tablet but nothing happend, no sound from my PC no new hardware found box, nothing. So I checked the device manager and I don't see anything there, no android adb, no GT-P7510, etc. The computer just doesn't recognize the tab. I tried reinstalling the drivers, rebooting the tablet and the PC, I did a factory reset, wiped cache, etc. Nothing worked. The only 2 things I notice is the charger/usb cable connected sound on my tablet and there's a weird red cross through the battery icon on the lower right side of my screen. Does anyone know if this is a known problem or how to solve it?
Model: GT-P7510 [P4 WIFI]
Android Version: Stock 4.0.4
[EDIT]: I managed to root the tab without the PC using the Iroot app and then I flashed TWRP and with TWRP I flashed Android 5.0. So now I am on Android 5.0!
Thanks!
Is USB debugging on or off, under Settings / Developer options? Try toggling that first.

Thanks for your reply!!
I forgot to mention that I also tried toggling that on and off several times but that also didn't work. However, I managed to root the tab without PC and I installed android 5.0 and its working great! What I also noticed is that there no longer is a red cross through the battery icon when charging but still no USB connection :/

Good thing you could flash I guess you first copied the files you needed to an external SD / USB stick, and then copied those files to the internal storage on the tablet itself?
You could try now under Android 5 is to toggle the same option again in the settings.
Another option is in the Recovery: under mounts and storage, you could try to mount the sdcard / partitions, while connected to your PC. Although you should at least have some confirmation of a connection with the PC, under Windows Device Manager. But it never hurts to try.

Thanks! Will try all the options you mentioned and I'll post whether is works or not!
I solved that issue on mine by replacing the cord. the 30pin cord with these tabs is god awful.
Hi all,
Today I smashed my company phone - old Myphone Cube. I dont want to repair him, I will get newer BUT I want to restore my data.
I have there important photos on internal storage + ALL MY CONTACTS.
I tried everything with adb via stock recovery (update via ADB), which gives me ADB error: closed (no matter which version of adb I use.
In stock recovery is also an option "backup data", so I made an backup to sdcard. On sdcard in computer I see 3,5GB big file with .backup extension. I unpacked it via 7-zip and all I see is userdata_20100101_000113.backup. I cannot unpack it via anything.
Iam very lost. I tried many tools and stuff, but nothing helped me do something with ADB or this backup file. I also tried USB OTG to connect mouse, because LCD is still working, only touch doesnt, but this phone doesnt support OTG. I tried also My Phone explorer, but sadly, I dont have turned on USB debugging.
Iam playing with idea to buy digitizer for 10 bucks of ebay and do it this way, If any of those metods will not work.
Any ideas please?
Thank you, Martin!
Hi,
Seemingly some Samsung S6s (mine is T-Mobile) do not permit OTG, I have tested the OTG cable and mouse with another Android device.
I have also tried using adb to pull data from my phone, but the only option there seems to be adb sideload as per this thread
Looking for ways to get into my phone to enable USB debugging, or just to use a mouse or keyboard so I can check my texts and backup my photos etc before trying to fix the screen
Any ideas on other method of getting into my phone?
Three Ways for you
1-Get another model of the same Mobile.Flash the Cwm Recovery on it.Backup the Firmware and Restore on Broken Device.Now Make a Simple Script to move all you files and Voila.
2-Get the screen Fixed.I am pretty Sure they Won't smash your data
3-**** it.Buy another phone.
