I can't seem to get the pulldown menu to show debugging mode or be able to mount the phone so I can see the sd cards as drives within windows.

Try a different USB port on your computer.

I've tried all 3
Try plugging into the usb ports in the back off the pc? Sometimes that works. Less connections to go through. Also have you tried a reboot? (phone). My roomate had this issue and a reboot, along with moving usb to the back ports fixed it. Hope this helps man!
Edit: Has it EVER worked for you?
Well it's on a laptop with vista...when I plugged it in a long time ago for the first time I was only planning on using it to charge my phone only so i told vista to not remind me to install the drivers but earlier I installed the X32 USB drivers and that didn't seem to do anything...I'm not sure if its ever worked cause I never paid any attention

Go to samsung.com and find your phone and download samsung USB drivers its in there downloads, under captivate.
There web site is small for the phone shouldnt be to hard to find.
(i found em and i couldnt find my way out of a wet paper bag)
keep the file on hand i deal with 4 phones none are samsung but mine so i lose my drivers all the time just like you have, isnt a big deal. dont get the drivers from any were but there or here.

Definitely a driver related problem. Re-install the correct ones for your machine or test on another machine as well.
Is it a driver, usb cord, etc problem? Whenever i tried to put cog 4.4.9 on, i get stuck in a manage application/ "computing mode" and i can't get the debugging mount usb to come up at all, but mount usb works fine in recovery mode.
Had the same problem, won't mount on Windows, ODIN and Heimdall recognizes it though.
Yes, reinstalled the drivers several times, and a system restore (to a month ago)
Still not working.

Well guys i have a big problem. Its shouldn't be that big considering its a connection problem, but i can't seem to be able to fix it. I've been trying to connect to my laptop/desktop using the supplied micro usb and a blackberry micro usb, but it won't let me transfer files. the option to turn on storage doesn't even pop up on the notifications. it charges but thats it. i have all necessary drivers and the USB debugging option is checked. Any info or help would be welcome thanks!!

Mine wouldn't connect until i reinstalled the LG T-Mobile G2x drivers and now it mounts every time. The drivers in the updater tool installed the 3.2.1 drivers which is for the G-slate. You need the 2.2 drivers which are for the G2x, if you need them just pm me and i can send them to you.
i deleted and reinstalled the 2.2 drivers with no success. im starting to think there's something wrong with my phone. But it could also be that i'm now running the Gingerbread leak from yesterday. rooted and working perfectly... well almost. i just need to get usb connection working.
Similar issue. This worked for me on Win 7.
Uninstall the LG Drivers and reinstall the G2x 2.2 package from LG.COM /us/support/mc-support/mobile-phone-support.jsp (I can't post links)
Plug the phone in and go to Device Manager. There should be a USB Composite Device that is not properly installed. Right click it and select Update Driver Software.
Select 'Browse my computer', then 'Let me pick'. Choose have disk, and browse to where the LG Drivers are installed. Likely C:\Program Files\LG Electronics\LG United Mobile Driver\ and select lgbus9x.inf.
Then pick LGE Android Platform Composite USB Device from the list of drivers. Should be the top option. Hit next.
I let it sit for a minute while the drivers installed. Some things registered in device manager right away, the LGE USB Modem for one. But, the drives didn't. Unplugged the phone, plugged it back in, and the drives popped up under Portable Devices.
@conspirator_boff i tried ur steps, but i couldn't find the USB Composite Device in the list of the USB Controllers in Device manager. Am i missing a step?
Humm, depending how it is connected it could have a different name. Do you have anything that isn't installed properly?
Also, if you haven't, you might want to look into mother board / system driver updates.
I'm in exactly the same boat. Running on Win 7 64 bit.. tried both 2.3 and 2.2 drivers but no luck. It doesn't get detected AT ALL. Tried with 3 different USB Cable on 3 different ports. I can connect other phones to the same port/cable without any issues.
I suspect there is actually something wrong with the phone or with a specific batch of phones. I googled around and read about a couple (husband and wife) who connected both their G2x's to the same computer on the same port/cable 1 at a time. One always worked, and the other never worked. I believe he eventually returned it and got a new one which worked fine.
We may have ended up with the ones from a bad batch?

Hmm interesting. I can't say the same for mine since this was the very first time I actually connected it up to the computer. Mine is completely stock and I bought it at launch.
Just to give you guys an update:
I took my G2x to a local T-Mobile store. They tested my phone out on their own computers and it did not mount via USB. They ordered a replacement phone so it is actually an issue for some people and not drivers/system setup. Apparently I was the 3rd case that the store had encountered.
Mine wouldn't connect until i turned USB debugging on, now it connects every time. Might give that a try.

Same here. No luck with it on or off.
So I got an incident with my phone, if you wanna now about it, its at my sig, but the thing is that I dunno why or how, sometimes my computer does recognizes my phone and display the Turn on USB storage option at the notification bar, but each time I try to turn it on it just wont work. Attached is a logcat whenI try to enable it, maybe someone could tell me why it wont work.

Normally I got two nandroids a GB based one and an ICS based one, right now Im using both Eagle's Blood 2.3.7 v2.8 and ICS 4.0.3 Build 1. But I had this problem since... always. I'm a flashaholic so i have tested actually every rom from stock 2.2.2 to beta 4.0.3... I even have a nandroid of my original ROM (the one that came with it when y bought it and rooted it) and not even there works. The only clue i have right now is that only if I disable USB debugging it will randomly connect.
This may sound dumb but have you tried a different usb cable? I had the same problem and tried my girls and my phone was able to connect each and every time. another thing I noticed with my phone is that it sometimes won't connect using windows 7...xp no problem but 7 it plays hard to get.

Did you ever figure this out? Sounds like your having the same problem that i am.
I've tried at least 6 different cables, home PC, work PC, laptop and a co-worker's PC that didn't have anything vmware installed (had a hunch that vmware usb drivers were the cause). Oh, all the computers were win7x64.
I've only rooted my phone and upgraded to 2.3.3 so nothing crazy going on there and it's worked for months since i did both of those.
I have a feeling that this may have been a recent windows update, but no clue when or which one because i haven't really cared that it didn't work. If i had to guess i'd say mine stopped working about 3 months ago... again, hard to remember.

Make sure usb debugging is turned off.
Plug in the phone, enable usb storage.
Right click on the phone drives in the explorer and click on eject.
Turn off usb storage.
Unplug and plug in again.
Enable usb storage.
Drives should work now.
This did it for me. Since then if I remember to eject before unplug I haven't seen any issues.

Curious though, when yours was having problems, did windows detect anything? For instance, when I plugged mine into my co-workers pc there are zero pop ups about new hardware detected.

I had the same problem. Dirt in the mini-USB port can cause that problem.
Take a can of compressed air and blow it into the mini-USB port (blowing with your mouth isn't enough). Also, take a close look at the port with a magnifying glass and look for any dirt or discoloration in there.
Do the same with your cable.
Not working after install RemICS 1.3.2

Hi, this problem occur to me after I've installed RemICS 1.3.2 ROM (CM9 based), I did follow the installation steps from beginning, when the problem occur, I did re-flash the same ROM several times, but this problem still unsolved.
I did try all recommendations (blow out dirt, disable usb debugging etc) but still not success.
This ROM should able to detect USB when phone connected with PC, but somehow I don't know why. Any experts recommendation?

Ok, I just found the problem. I can hear now the tone of PC detected USB when plugged-in, and I update the driver. then Voila!!

Hey, just thought I'd register an account because I stumbled upon this thread because I had the same issue verbatim and I managed to get it working.
I ended up using the USB 3.0 ports on my desktop and suddenly it picks up my g2x without fail everytime. With that said, I'm lead to believe that perhaps its an issue of power. Maybe the USB 2.0 ports you're using simply aren't providing enough power. Not sure what its worth or if my issue was something unrelated but maybe that bit of information is something to work with. =)
Found another solution that fixed the problem for me.
If you are using Windows XP, log on as an Administrator and open Device Manager
Select View > Show Hidden Devices
Scroll down to Storage Volumes, and expand
Right-click on each entry and select Update Driver.
This fixed the problem for me!

USB not working
When I try to connect to the computer to transfer music or whatever to the Infuse it won't let me. I plug in the data cable click mass storage, click connect USB I get "do you want to scan and fix". If I click scan and fix I get "check disk options". Any combination of the check boxes will make the phone disappear and starts the scanning process, like I had disconnected it. I'm running Zeus 6 w/ICS theme for build 6. Is there any special way these disks should be formatted? Any help would be appreciated.
Wow! Nothing?
Now when I plug in to the computer it doesn't even recognize the phone. It's like I never plugged it in. The phone will still asks kies/media/mass storage. I click mass storage then click connect to PC then nothing. It's almost to the point of going out on the deck and teach this phone how to fly.
my infuse is doing about the same thing.
plug it into the wall...nothing.
try different outlet...nothing.
try different charger and cord...nothing.

So... I got a Tab 2 10.1 last week from amazon after 3 days of use the Tablet died, no power, no signal, tried charging and all troubleshooting I found through the internet in the ended decided to send it back and got a replacement Tablet from Amazon.
Yesterday I got the new one and let it charge all night, this morning I got to set it up, everything was working great until I decided it was time for me to root it and transfer some music to it. When I connected it to my pc i got an error message saying "USB Device is not recognized" error message said something like the device had malfunctioned. Funny thing is that the tablet charges perfectly, although I do know that the pins it uses to charge and data transfer are not the same.
Having hopes in my tablet and my luck decided to check if it was for some reason in USB Debugging, it was not.
*Removed Kies, and all Samsung related drivers, rebooted and reinstalled the drivers alone, nothing.
*Unistalled the drivers rebooted and installed latest kies...nothing...
*Tried using a friends cable to see if that was the issue, nothing. *
Tried cleaning the port, nothing.
*Tried both cables, mine and my friend's, on a different computer and still nothing!.
So I have ran out of options and ideas and I'm really frustrated as I can't believe I've so much bad luck as to get 2 damaged tablets in a row.
Is there anymore troubleshooting I can do before I ask for a refund? I'd really appriciate any help that you guys can provide me.

Samsung's drivers and ODIN don't play nice with win7 x64. It works for some but not others. Use someone else's 32-bit PC, or try Heimdall Suite.
Posted from my Fascinate using XDA Premium
I've never had a problem with win 7 x64 with my Tab 2 10.1. What I would recommend is use a different USB port or try several different USB ports.
If that doesn't work, you likely have a bad USB port on your tab. Samsung should honor their warranty and replace it.

Hello again! So I recently picked up a Galaxy S 4g for a good deal, and now for some reason, I can't connect it to my pc. I plug it in via usb, I've tried all the USB settings, and my pc won't recognize it at all. I've searched everywhere on the web, and on these forums, and still no dice. I found another similar thread from about a year ago, and nobody really gave a concrete answer there. I've tried in debug mode also. The phone charges when it is plugged in, but that is all. I installed the Kies Mini and the drivers on my work pc (Win7 x64) and it still won't recognize my phone. At home I'm running Win8 x64, and Kies Mini won't even download the drivers, it just sticks at 0%. If anyone has any ideas as to why it won't work, or options that I can try, it would be greatly appreciated. Also, it is not rooted. The point of this is to try to root it. I've rooted many other Android phones without issue. This one's being a tricky little bugger!
Thanks in advance.
You will need to install the drivers for your phone on the pc. Also check out your usb cable some give me problems

I got it to work! Here's how:
I tried installing XP on a pc that I was setting up for my grandma, and still had the same problem. Having been working on this for a few days, I got frusturated, and brought it to my Dad to have him give it a go (he's done tons of rooting/unlocking on tons of phones, and he is in the 360 modding scene) and lo and behold, he got it. It was just the USB cables I was using I guess. He hooked it up with the cable from his Kindle Fire, and it worked instantly. Looks like I just need to pick up a new cable, because all 3 of mine are ****ty >.>
