Update:
Stock update.zip needed!!
or, does those mod update.zip helps too ?
I've had trouble connecting this SGS4G to my PC.
I got it used, the previous owner fomated the SD card.
Is there any files comes with the stock SD card that affects the connection?
I tried hard and soft reset, still the PC said can't recognize it.
I even hand pick the USB driver in update driver option.
It says "Device cannot start (code 10)" something like that
Any advise will be appreicated!
Look for drivers only maybe different bit than your pc
Try just the sd.card in your.computer

Did you install the drivers found on the "how to root galaxy s4g and deleting fota files" thread in the development forum?

One thing you might try, if you haven't yet is a different (original) usb cable. I had this problem and realized I was using a moto usb cable. Just a thought.

+2 I had this issue before.
Thankyou for all the answers, I've used 3 different drivers, 1 from Kies, 1 from that Noob root guide, and one from somewhere i forgot.
I also used 3 different micro usb cable, HTC, MOTO, and samsung.
I went to Tmobile, plug in one of their sgs4g in my laptop, works perfectly, so not my laptop and not my cable.
Then i tested, my phone is not rooted yet with root checker, when I install superuser, it gave me an error msg saying that su binary file has a problem, It disappear before i write it down. and it said it copied that su binary on my sd card and tell me to reboot into recovery mode and install it.
I dont know how, and i guess that means a hard reset? I used that vol up+down and power buttom.Then I clicked reinstall packages, big discovery!
I found out that "E;/fail to open.mnt/internal_d/update.zip(No such file or direstory)
Man.... somehow that update.zip isn't there!!!
Anyone could point me to a place to download it? or simple upload me or send one to me email [email protected]
Again thank you for all the comments!

Have you installed the driver's from Samsung yet?
Additionally, when you plug the USB cord in, what happens on your phone? Do icon's show up, up top? Nothing happens?
Have you tried to go into Settings>Applications>Development and made sure USB Debugging is on?
Now if you have tried a standard SGS4G from the TMO Store on your laptop and it worked, you might have gotten a bad deal buying that one used. Something might be jacked up on it.
Additionally, if it's unmodified which it sounds like it is,
Just go to Settings>Privacy>Factory Data Reset.
That will put you back to the original state.

No icon show up.
Something is missing from the phone, i did the factory reset both soft and reinstall package in Recovery/ delete all user data, still no help.
When i use root checker, it tells me there is no su binary in system/bin
Superuser created one for me to the SD card, but es file explorer wont copy it into system/bin for me, and in recovery mode, it just say no update.zip exist in internal SD

I'm not sure what would have been deleted off the phone to prevent the USB from working on your computer. Either way, you're kinda out of luck if it won't even connect to the computer.
Only other solution would be to download the stock ROM in the form of update.zip from your phones web browser, save to SD, then reboot into recovery and choose the second option.
The reason why update.zip is missing is because you haven't put it on your SD card. You typically download any zipped ROM, rename it to update.zip and then put it in the root of your SD.
Since you can't connect to the computer you'd have to download from a browser.

Very usefull Info!!
I'm downloading that Stock DEODEXED KC1 now. But it's in Mc5
So, i just zip it right?
Luckily I could still take the sd card out and use a card reader to load stuff on it.
Mainly i want the connection to the pc for rooting.
Moreover, the Root checker says i already have Busybox installed, does it mean, the previous owner might have tried to or did rooted, but unroot it ?
That one doesnt work, so I tried another one which it states its completely stock (T959VUVKC1-REV00-ALL-low-CL933594.tar)
But still both turns out "E: signature verification failed"
any idea?
Just flashed my nexus with ics..One problem though...When i try to connect it to ubuntu..its not getting detected...any idea??
Did you do the necessary edits in Ubuntu to get the USB device to be recognized?

I had no problem connecting with stock rom..After flashing ics,everything started. I am not being able to mount even mass storage.Everytime i want to copy some files, i have to go into cwm recovery.
I have no problems on latest kang, connects via mtp as intended. Mass storage with on board non removable flash devices like the galaxy nexus is not possible anymore as they have redone the drive structure.

So as you have seen from the title i flashed the rom over the sd card instead of the internal storage,so now i can't connect my phone to the computer to change the baseband,and i can't flash the original rom either,when i tried to restore trought the backup file,android as buggy as it is automatically selectet the "BACKUP" option and created a new backup with ICS ,so this is my dillema (i can't connect i to the pc to change the baseband and i can't flash the original rom),can anyone pls help me?my phone isnt even one and a half years old,
THANKS IN ADVANCE!!!!!!!!!
Flashing a ROM over the SDcard is not possible.
The computer just hasn't installed the drivers. Search for adequate USB drivers and it will work
it recognizes the sd,but when i remove the sd card and connect the usb cable it says that a phone is connected,but it doesn't recognize the internal storage

That's a feature for not allowing people who don't know what they are doing to mess up the OS.
If you want to modify apps on the internal memory use titanium backup or a file manager with root acces
so thgat's why even when i go into recovery th the pc doesn't recognize it?
What is the connection between recovery, ics , pc. Basically what are you trying to do??
As thatnextdoorboy said.. search and install new usb drivers to pc.
You cant access internal memory.. so dont think about it. You can use only Sdcard for storage.
First search for BBFIX patch in this forum.. "store" it in sdcard.. go to recovery and flash it.
Second read all the threads here about upgrading baseband.. and dont do it till you are sure of what you are doing!!

FIRST: calm down please
Which version of CWM is installed? You can mount USB storage in the recovery and simply copy a rom to your sdcrad as it will be handled as usb mass storage. In case you can't mount storage --> we'll get it working another way
WHY you use adb to copy files? Mass storage is even more easy + safe

Device must connected to pc... If it does not mount try restarting the recovery and do again. Close all adb instances on your computer.

If you cannot turn developer mode on and use ADB push, then, you should be able to in CWM.
Failing that, does Google Play work?
If so, install (from your PC via Google Play page) WiFi File Transfer Pro, fire up an FTP session and push the needed GApps over.
And if all else fails...
ODIN back to stock.
I really don't get it
Can you explain this in detail?

Sure thing.
ADB is the debug program for Android. You can use it specifically to push files to the device. But it is not turned on on the device by default. You will need to go into developer options under settings and turn USB debugging on (if Developer Options is not there, go into About Phone and tap Build Number 7 or 8 times tom unlock the feature).
For this to work, you will need a linux PC with an ADB binary (if using Debian/Ubuntu, can "apt-get install adb", then run adb as superuser or sudo) or a windows computer with adbsetup installed. The latter will install the program to C:\adb. So open a command prompt and (with the device plugged in and developer options turned on) type:
Code:
c:
cd \adb
adb devices
You should get a listing of your device, raring to go. If so, great! Copy the the appropriate Gapps package to C:\ADB and type:
Code:
adb push gapps-4.2.zip gapps-4.2.zip
...or whatever the filename is called (there twice as it needs the local and remote file name).
So if that works, can reboot into recovery (CWM) via the three finger salute (turn device off fully, wait a few seconds, hold down both volume buttons while pressing the power button), wipe dalvik cache, and flash the right GApps.
Another option is if you can add Google Play apps to your device. Don't imagine, but if it is possible, fire up your computer and log into your Google Play account. Search for "WiFi File Transfer Pro" and install. With a Wifi connection on the device, it should download and install. If it doesn't, try the scorched earth option below. If it does install, open Wifi File Transfer Pro, turn on FTP server, and keep note of the IP address and Port (Will be noted as IPort). Open or install an FTP client like FileZilla on your PC, and open a connection using that IP address and Port. Transfer the Gapps package over to the device, in the root folder. Then like above, reboot into recovery and wipe dalvik, flash gapps.
The last option, the scorched earth method, is to bring everything back to stock, mind you with root and CWM. Pick option D from the above link (previous post). Download and install adbsetup for the drivers. Option D download will come with a program called ODIN, and that link will have detailed instructions (download and extract the files, open ODIN, put the phone into download mode by turning the device off, hold down both volume buttons while inserting the MicroUSB cable, place the extracted files inthe right sections of ODIN, and flash away).
Hope this helps.
Ok one of my main problems is that I can't use keyboard...which means no internet because I can't type any passwords
And the other big thing is that none of my computers connect toy phone even with USB debugging on from setting and even in recovery
I was wondering if I get a connection with no password will I be update from the phone because there is an option to do so.

Because Google Play is part of Gapps, there is no guarantee that will work either to update. If you can find an unsecured network (or temporarily turn off WPA on your router), you can test this, but at this point, I would be doing the scorched earth method. You would only be going back to Gingerbread, and however you play your cards (whether you disable lagfix or flash ICS as an intermediary), you would only be one or two flashes away from a functional Jellybean.
Ok my phone doesnt connect with usb ive tried several different times.
I did the adb method everything was fine except i didnt get the device list ,it was empty.
So if it cant connect how will i connect it to my computer to use odin?
Ps. I did download the drivers

True enough. Lets try this (as I just thought about it via some other weird, more convoluted way). CM 10.1 comes with a file manager right? Download the 4.2 Gapps onto your mcroSD card, insert it into your device. Fire up the file manager. Copy the Gapps file from the external SD card to the internal card, root folder (where the offending Gapps lies). Reboot into ClockworkMod and wipe Dalvik and install the appropriate zip.
If this does not work, my more convoluted way wouldn't either (search and download "wifi file transfer pro apk" to SD, open with file manager, install, follow the rest of above option 2), and would be out of options except getting your hardware fixed (as it sounds like your device not connecting via USB is a hardware issue).
Ive tried with micro sd before and it hasnt worked
The thing is that All of this stopped working after the update and the thing that i disliked the most was that when i was getting the update it said jb 4.2 gapps but proved wrong

You tried mounting the microSD with the proper Gapps, and copying it with CM's File Manager (to the internal disk to be picked up by CWM later)? Just being clear, and making sure you are not talking about trying to install a zip directly from the MicroSD with CWM (as mentioned, and ruled out before). Because these are two completely different things. Is the MicroSD readable at all on your device? Is it formatted properly (FAT32, or even Ext2/3/4, but not NTFS)?
Can you explain the formatting stuff?
charminster said:

Sure. Insert the microSD into your computer, and open up Windows Explorer. There will be a new drive that appears. Right click on that removable drive, and select Properties. Confirm the File System. If it is FAT32, you are okay. If it is NTFS, or exFAT, you will need to format (as the Infuse will not recognize these formats). Press Cancel.
Before beginning, make a backup of the MicroSD card, as we are going to wipe and start from scratch. Then, right click on the removable drive again (and only this drive, or you will cause damage to your computer) and select Format. Change the file system to FAT32. If this is not an option, find and download a disk utility that will (I'm not familiar with them, but google "removable storage format fat32 download" for one). Press start, and wait a few minutes. When done, you can reload your files on the drive (restore your backup), and try inserting it in your Infuse again.
Hope this helps.

Probably not, IIRC external SD did not work in CWM for the Infuse. But re-read post #10, what I'm suggesting is getting CWM to read the proper Gapps from the internal card, but placing it there with CyanogenMod's file manager.
CM 10.1 comes with a file manager right? Download the 4.2 Gapps onto your mcroSD card, insert it into your device. Fire up the file manager. Copy the Gapps file from the external SD card to the internal card, root folder (where the offending Gapps lies). Reboot into ClockworkMod and wipe Dalvik and install the appropriate zip.

Sorry, I misread your previous post. Thanks for the clarification. What are the details on the microSD card? Make, model, speed, capacity? If it is a 64+ GB card, it would spell problems as the Infuse was never rated for a capacity that large.
It's a sandisk 16 gb
Sd card
Fat32
No reason why the microSD won't work in the Infuse.
If you have a Bluetooth keyboard you can borrow - or try buying (not sure if it will connect) - but if you can get your hands on one, you could use that (never had to use one so I don't know how they connect) to download the right GApps package to your phone (via the built-in browser).
I'm curious as well, if the speech-to-text works. You could use google now search to find the gapps package ("okay google, xda developers") and browse to the right page. Of course you will need a unsecured network to attempt.
Other than that, unfortunately I'm out of ideas.
