Randomly my phone stopped connecting to the computer under mass storage. Was running Infused 2.2.3 with linux on the PC. Tired 2 different ROMS. Reflashed/Wiped...ect. Reinstalled Windows 7 installed all the drivers with the same result. Also my phone asks me what i want it to do even when plugged into wall charger, do not remember it doing that in the past. Any ideas? I have tired multiple USB ports and cables as well as a different computer.

Hi all, Ive had my captivate for about a week now and have been playing with it, I've been all over the web trying to figure out why I can't sync it with my pc Ive tried both my laptop with windows 7 and my desktop running XP. Nothing will work ive downloaded the drivers from Samsung's site and kies and kies mini with no luck. No matter what i do it says device not recognized windows has stopped the device and nothing shows up on the phones screen it just shows its charging, I'm guessing its something I'm doing but i just don't know what. Once I had so much trouble I connected a Samsung flight to my PC that's running XP and it worked just fine. Can anyone help me out i want to root the captivate so i can get take off all this att crap!!!
Did you mount the phone after plugging it into your computer? You should pull down the notification bar and it should give you the option to copy files to/from computer.
Also, set you usb settings to mass storage. It's in settings...can't remember where on stock.

Yes I have put the phone in all the different usb settings debugging,media player, mass storage, ask on connection, kies. When I plug it in the only thing that changes on the phone screen is its showing its charging it doesn't give me any option to mount. The same cable will connect my old Flight phone and that phone transfers files just fine. This really has me stumped.
You downloaded and installed drivers from this site? http://www.samsung.com/us/support/downloads/SGH-I897ZKAATT
This may sound random and stupid but are you plugging into a USB that is directly connected to the motherboard (back of the computer)? If you're on a laptop there is no way to test this...basically, there was some issues before of people not having their computer recognize their phone and the issue was too low of power from the USB.
Hopefully someone else can chime in as well. I'm pretty new to this too so I can only think of fairly basic things.
I'm having an issue where my thunderbolt is not recognized by my PC any longer. I used to have it set up with pdanet and everything worked well for about a week. All of a sudden, any computer i tried to plug the device into, wouldn't detect the phone. A friend of mine has tried his thunderbolt on my computer and it detects it.
When plugging my phone in, it pops up an error message with "USB Device not Recognized." In the device manager, the phone shows up as Unknown Device. I have tried this on 3 different pc's, using 3 different data cables. No USB symbol displays on the taskbar of the phone when I plug it in, however, it does charge.
What I have tried:
Changing data cables.
Using another PC.
Uninstalling device drivers and letting windows re-detect and install.
Downloaded HTC Sync and ran it after uninstalling drivers again and re-plugging the phone.
Changed different Connection settings on the phone, such as USB Debuggin on/off, and changing it to HTC Sync Mode, Charge Only, Disk Drive, etc
Mounted and unmounted SD Card in the phone settings.
OS: Windows 7 x64
Is there anyone out there that can help?
Thank you for any information you may provide.
I remember that one of my friend's desire cannot be detected by the pc before, he search the forum and find out that he need to change something in the driver files before installing the driver. I'm not sure if that will work in your case thought..
I recently bought a new PC running Windows 7 and after installing HTC Sync and all the drivers, my phone will not connect. As soon as I plug in the phone to the USB, it freaks out and keeps popping up and closing the USB Mass Storage screen. I've tried to connect with USB debugging checked and unchecked and still no luck. I even went and uninstalled HTC Sync and all the drivers and reinstalled but still won't connect. I even tried different USB ports but still the same thing. I'm running CM10.1. Anyone have any help they can give me?
Hello everyone.
I am having issues with my Note being detected by my PC, I have installed Kies 3 and when the Note is connected the connection process starts but fails ( I tried using camera mode instead of MTP and Kies says It must be MTP so something is connecting), Also the device is detected in the device manager of the PC and the Note itself says its connected by USB 3.0.
I have updated, un-installed re-installed, all the drivers and Kies. I have also used a standar USB 2 cable and most of the ports on my PC.
Does anyone know what's going on? could it be a USB 3 issue with Windows?
Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers

I've been having consistent issues connecting with the tablet through adb, on both linux (2 separate installs), and windows 8.1. Sometimes it just will not detect it. It gets detected as mtp storage fine, but adb devices returns nothing. Ill triple check all the relevant settings, make sure the computer has been authorized by the tablet etc. It will literally work just fine, and then 10 minutes later without even disconnecting the cable to using the tablet, it will no longer be detectable by adb.
I'm hoping it's just bugs in the release firmware that haven't been ironed out yet, and will disappear with future upgrades or with the flashing of a custom rom.
I've also had it refuse to charge through my laptops USB ports, even the special "faster charging" port.
It turns out my issue was the unit itself I took it back to JB-HiFi and the staff checked it out and it wouldn't connect to any of their PCs, we tried the Demo unit and it worked fine, So i exchanged it and it works perfectly..
Thanks for your reply though

I've had my OPO for a little over 7 months now. My issue began when I had my desktop at a friend's house and plugged my phone into a USB 3.0 port to grab some videos off the phone when the phone suddenly shut off and would not turn back on. I thought it was bricked somehow but after leaving it plugged into a USB 2.0 port for some time, the charging screen came on and I was able to turn the phone on, but since then both OTG and MTP/PTP transfer doesn't work. If/when the phone is plugged into a computer, it gives an error and Device Manager shows
"Port_#0001.Hub_#0004 Unknown USB Device (Port Reset Failed)" and I'm not only able to charge the phone with one out the dozens of micro usb cables I have. I've tried several cables and a handful of different computers and OSs (Windows 7,8,8.1,10, Ubuntu 15.04, Kali Linux) all to the same result.
I'm running COS 12.1-YOG4PAS3JL, rooted, and have TWRP installed. The phone doesn't show up when in Fastboot mode or the bootloader either. Nothing changes when I disable or enable USB Debugging as well. With DriveDroid if I set the USB system to "Standard Android" the phone reboots and that seems like the closest I've been able to get to any kind of progress. I've gone through unbricking threads as well as Googled until my fingers bled but I'm yet to find anyone with a similar situation where the phone isn't bricked, the micro usb port isn't broken, I can't pick between MTP or PTP mode (USB Connection just says USB is now disconnected), and I'm not running a custom ROM. I tried replacing the micro usb on the phone so I now know that it wasn't that that's been messed up but I'm not sure where to go from here. Any suggestions or help is greatly appreciated.
