It's pissed me off for months.
damn,i at least wanted to remove the bloatware,i cant even do that
Where did you get the drivers?
What cord are you using, oem, or cheap one bought some where?
Have you tried different ports?

And what is your USB settings set to? If you don't know, go to:
Settings->Applications->USB settings
I tried all of the ports and have tried usb debugging and mass storage and kies

Try different drivers. Like the link I posted. Sometimes you may have to lead your computer to the drivers. When the pop up says unknown device click on it. You will need to know where the drivers are saved. Guide it to the drivers
Or you can insist you have done everything and in which case why create a thread
i installed the drivers,now do i need to restart my computer, thx again
Then take it into an AT&T store and see if they can make an USB connection. If not, then you can get the phone replaced with one that does work.

ive tried multiple times to fix this but it doesnt work. Last time i posted a thread here i said my phone was broken and i was not able to fix it because of the usb connection problem i had, so i talked to the company and they sent me a replacement but i still have the same usb connection problem, whenever i want to plug in the usb cable to my pc, the phone recognizes the connection but my pc doesn't. i talked to the company about this and they said ' Unfortunately, we don't have any information regarding this issue.", i do not know how to fix this. I've tried uninstalling the usb drivers and re installing them but nothing seems to work.
some of you suggested to try to take out the battery for 30secs open odin plug the usb in the phone hold vol up and down then slap the battery in while still holding keep holding it and if a com sign comes up in odin flash it even if screens blank, but it didn't work. i tried heimdell but it doesnt recognize my phone. if i cant use that, it means i cant root my phone and change the annoying tmobile boot animation. so pleaaaassee can you find a fix for this????, ohh by the way it didn't work when i put it in the download mode.
please
does anybody know how to fix it??? pleeeeeeeeeease
I'm assuming that you downloaded the 64 bit drivers? Try downloading the 32 bit ones. I read somewhere that it worked for some people.
or try installing kies and then plugging in the phone. go to install --> drivers in kies and let it install. then unplug the phone, restart the computer and try again
imusing the32 bit drivers
it didnt work, im going to have to buy another cablee to see if thats the problem,thanks for being so helpful jager555
Also, don't forget to try to hook up the phone to another computer.
ive tried this in 3 different computers
Are you trying to odin or just transfer files to sd?

If it's not the computer or the cable it's the phone. You've narrowed it down. Send it in for warranty?
The phone should work as mass storage with no drivers whatsoever. Pretty much any modern OS out right now will be able to recognize the phone with the drivers it come with and let you access the SD card of the phone, so yes, looks like the phone's the problem.
hmmmmm
i believe its the cable. Im going to try to get a new one and see if it works, cuz the phone i got right now its a replacement that they sent me from the company, so its new and i dont think its the phones problem.And yes im trying to odin.
Can you take format the sd card from ths phone (make sure to back up all the important stuff.) Then take off the phone. Use the computer to put a different rom on the root. Flash the rom using cwm. Let the phone sit to build the cache. While it is building, uninstall the current drivers. Reboot. Then reinstall using the drivers from the bible. Put the phone in download mode and plug the usb into a different port. Lol, but try this after you get the new usb cable.

Well a few days I rooted with SOC worked for a couple days now USB doesn't work at all. It charges just fine but computer does not recognize an external device, nor does my SGS4G. This has been happening with multiple computers and multiple cables, which are the 2 solutions I have found. And yes, I did try restarting my phone, toggling debugging mode, toggling SD card mount, etc.
Thank you for any help I can get.

Interesting problem. I've not used SOC so I may be useless here, but have you tried unrooting with SOC to see if it solves the problem?
If its not recognizing your external SD card have you tried reformatting it?

I could, but it's not recognizing a connection. When I try to tether it says "USB not recognized". I think it's more low-level than the SD card.
Have you tried downloading the drivers again?
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App
I don't think it's a driver issue, neither my Windows 7 box, nor my CR-48 (Chrome OS) see it as a device. If I had bad drivers it would say "unrecognized device", right? It's just allowing electricity, not data to go over the cable.

Have you tried a factory data reset? Heck, maybe just shut it off, remove the battery, put it back together, and hope for the best?

Yeah, my bad. I saw that in the OP and forgot. What ROM are you running on it? Would it be worth your time to flash a different ROM to see if it makes a difference?
Could be a hardware issue & possibly unrelated to SOC. I'm not a hardware guy, though, so I'm not sure what tools you need/can create to test the USB port.

also if you have issues with your phone stick it in download mode and plug it into the pc if it was a rom issue your pc would pick it up as download mode is done by the bootloaders not the rom... if it sill not working eather a you have a faluty cable can happen b you do have messed up drivers c you have a debunk usb port... if you still have root access.. you can still instal a new rom just goto krylons cwm final thread use search kinda hard to miss its called KRYLONS CWM FINAL download the files stick them on your sd card ... eather downoad to yuour device directly or use a usb card reader..
oh and for odin to work right 99 percent of the time yuo gotta plug the usb cable into the PORT YOU INSTALLED THE DRIVERS ON
Well, I was able to get USB recognized ONCE, on my laptop that I use for the charging. So, it gets plugged in every day and got recognized once. Unable to reproduce.

HI all,
So yes I have already tried to google, and look through other posts but cant find anything that is my particular situation, heres what happened, Infuse was running on ZEUS 6.1 perfectly, I decided to install ROM][2.3.6]SGH-I997 UCLB3[Rooted, Deodexed, Busybox, Zipaligned, I followed all the instructions, installed ROM, disabled VooDoo lagfix and then the stock kernal, after that the phone just didnt come back to life, the result is currently on the SAMSUNG logo, I can go into recovery just download mode but my USB is not detected either, when I install the drivers it doesnt do anything, tried KIES and other drivers from SAMSUNG, also removed USB ports, restarted, and tried other pc's and laptops and same USB error, even tried on linux, no luck, can anyone please help, I love this phone and the ROM, I have no idea why I attempted to do this but need help.
Thanks all[/FONT]
This happened to me lately but I was on stock froyo. Seems like my usb cable was for charging only. When I bought one that said it was for charging and data, the Infuse was recognized instantly. I am a noob here, but hope this is all of your problem.
Yep, thats what I'm starting to wonder, if its the cable, I am using the microUSB cable that came with the phone from SAMSUNG, never was an issue before, would connect and trasnfer data without a problem, also tried a few blackberry cables no luck, the crazy part is I cant even go to recovery mode, it only goes to download mode, wondering if I can copy some files to the SDcard to boot off with.
If you try everything and it does not work, contact me I know a guy you can send it to for it to be unbricked. When he unbricked mine, he noticed the usb controller somehow glitched and can never be fixed, resulting in a whole new device needed (he tried replacing the usb hub, did no good). Thats what happened to me, make sure to try everything first though.
So after trying a dozen cables, nothing seems to work, I should have known this when the OS was still on ZEUS and I attempted to connect via USB which I received USB not recognized message, I have tried the same SAMSUNG cable for a blackberry and it installs perfectly, so its not the cable, my understanding the USB port on the Infuse is bad, is there a way to boot into recovery of an SDcard so that I can install ZEUS back? I only have "download" mode working, recovery for some reason does not come-up, I am really trying to avoid throwing this phone in the garbage, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Clarification?
You can get into download mode but Odin doesn't see the phone? I don't think you have said anything about trying to do anything to the phone in download mode.
Sent from my SGH-I897 using Tapatalk
That's exactly it, I can get into download mode just fine, once I connect to pc I get USB device unrecognized, although the drivers are installed, so the crazy thing is I have been on here since the days of Infused downloading and updating ROMS back and forth, never posted anything, even when I had an issue back when, I was able to go into recovery and do what I need to do to bring it back to life, almost felt like an expert given the amazing advice here, never had an issue till now, please help.
I had accidentally set my Infuse in an "almost" empty cup, not realizing that there was still about an inch of lemonade at the bottom. This unfortunatley screwed my USB recognigtion to my computer. It can charge, but is no longer capable of transferring files via USB. There is, however, Kies Air. This has been such a lifesaver!!! You can transfer files to and from your phone, and I have transferred Zeus and Aeon to my SD card through Kies Air. I installed Aeon on my phone no problem and it is working flawlessly You only need to download the Kies Air app to your phone. No special drivers, apps, or software is needed for your computer. If anyone has any questions on how to do this, you can PM me or just post on here.

Either that or you may have a broken charging port also. That could be a broken charging port on your phone. Not always is a usb cable fault.

When you google one click stock for our device and download it the Java app requires you to install Java on your PC one this is done the program will automatically ask if you won't to install the drivers click yes then you will need to go to list at the top left corner select recent devices then Samsung will pop up install them then you click flash and it does all the work

Be sure to follow them exactly how they are written. lumin has a guide on how to remove your drivers that is probably what is causing your problems is a wonked out driver.

guys, ive been messing around now for about 5 hrs trying to get this thing going and no luck. i know there has to be a way. this is a list of things that ive tried and any other suggestions would be very helpful.
*tried a different usb cord
*used usbdeview to delete anything android/samsung related
*tried another laptopkn
*tried another sgs4g (which one click will say connected but then if i try my phone it wont)
*deleted all known drivers samsung/android related
im going to the store now to see if i can get a brand new usb cord and see if that helps. other than that fellas im clueless as to why i wouldnt be able to get one click to see my device. its almost as if the device doesnt know what it is. but sometimes by chance when i plug it in to my computer it will try to install and if i have one click open it will say connected and the drivers are being detected and then when the drivers fail it becomes disconnected.
Anyone have anything else i can try???
Install Heimdall.
Plug in phone, while it's on download screen.
Launch zadig.exe from the Heimdall\Drivers folder.
Options->List all devices.
Choose the Samsung one... I'm away from my computer so I can't give you the exact name, but I think it's Samsung Composite Device.
Change the driver to libusb0.
Install/replace driver.
Restart computer.
Log into computer.
Restart phone.
Flash successfully.
I remember seeing somewhere that once on mtd the phone responds to the Google drivers. You can install those from the android sdk. Don't know if that would help, but worth a shot if you don't have those drivers installed.

Both computers used are running windows 7 ultimate, 1 cord is an OEM htc, one is the oem samsung, and the other is an ebay one. I have gone into USB and tried debugging and kies. Nothing works!! Help!

uninstall all drivers that you have tried...go here and download the Infuse drivers and reinstall...kk see if that helps

If you can't get it going you could probably do a warranty claim since you just bought it today...the infuse comes with a year warranty from Samsung

@ bigjoe2675Thank you for that link, I downloaded:
SGH-i997_Infuse4G_USB_Drivers
(Sorry i cant post links)
Then installed it onto my comp. Then reattached the phone and it did the same unknown device thing so I manually took it to the installed driver and it said everything is functioning fine.... It is saying it is an unknown device and it cant find the drivers.
@mg2195
I bought it from a 3rd party, so no warranty. The only real reason I want to connect to my PC is to upgrade to gingerbread.
try the one click lb3 by qkster same place where you got my drivers...one click heimdall uses diff drivers...it will put the latest GB on there....kk

Ok I am installing SuperOneClick now.
Ok so I installed one click, then went to forcefully install drivers and the phone then went into USB mode and windows said it was installing drivers, while the phone said it was connected. After about 10 minutes of it doing this I figured something was up so I restarted both of them...Now I get what it is shown in the picture.
Ok now I have it to the point on the phone where when I plug in the cord I can choose kies, media player, and mass storage. But no matter what I pick on the computer does not respond, still just shows that its an unknown device.

You will probably get better luck with that then superoneclick

Well now it is set to where if its plugged into the computer it will charge immediatly and at all times. However IF I can get it to go into USB mode with the computer(Not really sure why it does, but sometimes the computer recognizes it and I can use mas storage but never Kies). Anyway if it goes into USB mass storage mode and i unplug the cable and plug it into an AC plug quickly the phone will think its still mass storaging with a computer but is actually only charging off of the ac socket....
Seems to be pure software to me as it will get a full charge off of AC when tricked into thinking its in USB mode.

I am not entirely sure how to check the settings... It seems now that when it wont charge all i have to do restart it and it will charge perfectly...
Usb debugging is under apps -> development. But that's not it as your Pc simply doesn't recognize it.
I would keep playing with the drivers.. for now it's your best chance

No my PC will recognize it once and a while now.... Kies just never works. and it doesnt always charge and/or recognize.
I have never liked kies personally. It gives me the spine that it causes more bad than good.
I would say your phone's mini usb slot is damaged

Same happens to my boss and the Tech Support say that is a hardware malfunction on the USB, he go to the store and they replace is infuse.
Happened to me the other day..
Don't really know what fixed mine.. I am on AOKP ics and loaded a gb rom onto the SD card through my laptop and reflashed it.. ended up getting stuck in red cwm.. I was able to select "reboot in download" and when it rebooted, my laptop instantly started installing new drivers, then I reverted to stock with gtg unbrick and reflashed my current rom and all was well.. not sure if that will help at all.. probably won't, but it might be something to look into..
If it reads sometimes and and sometimes it doesn't, I am inclined to believe the USB port is failing..
