Hi guys,
I just have received a i9023 from a friend to repair. I put fastboot on and the device is unlocked, then I copied over Matr1x kernel via USB to the SD card and flashed CMW to recovery.
From here things went bad.
When trying to update the kernel to Matr1x, it showed that the file wasn't on the SD card anymore, so I tried to mount the SD card to copy it back, but it my computer wouldn't see it. Since then I tried many things to get the USB working - updating drivers etc... after awhile I decided to format SD card, which didn't help, so I formatted all the partitions on the phone.
Now, every time the phone comes on, it boots straight to fastboot, but also the PC will still not recognise the phone via USB.
I've tried getting into Download mode and using ODIN to flash a new kernel & ROM, but this wont work without USB working.
Can anyone help?
PS. I have read many other guides and posts, but nothing has helped.
Many thanks.
*Bump*
Are you running Ubuntu or similar? You need to be root to use fastboot and edit the right config files
wait, did you go to the mount menu in cwm? You can mount as usb storage in that menu... Are you saying it doesn't show up on your computer? Are you running windows?
I've a friend in the same situation.
We managed to make the phone recognizable using pda.net driver for nexus S, but weren't abel to find a single tar file to use on Odin.
Seems that all stocks rom were deleted from any storage.

Yes, I tried to mount as USB Storage in the Recovery Menu - didn't work, but now, I've only got fastboot - Booting up the phone normally jumps straight to fastboot, trying to boot into recovery doesn't work (just the fallen over Android pic with the red "!" on his chest).
I'm using Windows 7 and computer will not recognise the phone at all (it was working before this & the MicroUSB port is not damaged).
My GT-i9100 works perfectly via USB.

If I can get it to connect to my PC so I can throw a stock ROM on there via ODIN I should be right (Pretty sure SAMFIRMWARE has some).
I've found often that the sdcard only gets mounted when you "choose zip from sdcard" in recovery. I panicked once with a galaxy s when I had forgot to put any rom on the sdcard and couldn't mount it subsequently. Ended up using heimdall with success. Also make sure you have latest version of fastboot, from platform tools 4.0.3.
Yeah, try Odin
If you can download sdk with the google drivers and install the drivers through device manager, you should be able to get your usb to connect again to fastboot. There is a bootloader driver inside the kit!

Yeah, it is definitely not connecting via fastboot. Windows 7 just comes up with UNKNOWN DEVICE., as does my WinPX machine. It's very strange.
Can you try Ubuntu? Any luck with Odin?

Does it say unknown device in device manager?

I don't have a machine with Ubuntu on it unfortunately.
Yes, Unknown Device in Device Manager - it won't accept it when I point the new driver to the modified Google USB .inf file

Did you click the "Have disk" option, point it at the file then click one of the options? That's what I had to do

Yes, I did - it said that this inf (driver) doesn't contain information about the device in question.
I think I came across a USB driver problem once that was rectified by deleting the relevant keys from the registry. Could be worth looking into.
EDIT: Found it!
Open regedit and navigate to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SYSTEM > CurrentControlSet > Enum > USBSTOR
and look for any devices that could be your nexus s.
I think they might be these:
Disk&Ven_Android&Prod_UMS_Composite&Rev_0001
Disk&Ven_Google&Prod_File-CD_Gadget&Rev_0000
You should be able to delete them (if not, change the permissions).
Then reboot and hopefully next time you plug in your phone, the drivers will reload.
Many thanks for all your help everyone; unfortunately I still have yet to figure out how to get this working. Please keep throwing out your ideas

I gave this a go as it sounded like a great idea, but unfortunately it still isn't working.
I ended up deleting the drivers it was installing which wouldn't work & now it will only show up as 2x Unknown device under 'Portable Devices' heading.
I think you should try installing ubuntu, and the android sdk so you have access to fastboot again.
can anyone tell me how to activate USB utility option on my P3100 ?
May be try this app (not confirmed to work) then reboot and see

What ROM are you using ?

Tried Stock, CM10, now on AOKP-JB built 3
So you are running AOKP , so i assume you are not just talking about moving files from your PC to your tab , after installing the correct drivers from Samsung ( either via Kies or Windows update).
So what exactly do you want to do ? Am i right in saying that you want full access from your PC to your tab via USB ? From what I have worked out it doesn't work like that with our tabs as the set permissions wont let you. Or have it got it wrong ?
Have you read this thread by ChainFire? ( he IS the man ! ).

MTP vs MSC mode... We don't like MTP, it's very very very better MSC aka USA Mass Storage Mode

Sorry, I don't understand why it's better. I just bought a Tab 2 and when I hooked it up to my pc I could see the folders and files and copy music and videos to it. I was going to hook it up again now to see if it's about getting into system files or something, but I'm exchanging it later today and I already did a factory reset.
Is it something to do with modding system files, rooting and flashing files that's easier with it? Sorry if this is a stupid question. I'm new to the Tab and rooting and flashing on my phone (Rezound) is so completely different than this, I'm still absorbing everything and trying to understand it all before I do anything with a Tab.

Simple... MTP permits u to copy to / from video, music, photo... files. Finish.
USB Mass Storage gives u the total permission of copying files but also... format partition, defrag, open files directly from the device, etc etc.

I just downloaded and flashed the ROM for Black Bean AOKP v.3.1.7 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1820847
I like it a lot. I am experiencing a problem right now though.
When I plug in a USB cable to my computer and then attempt to click on the USB connected (Touch to copy files to/from your computer) I get an error:
"Unfortunately, System UI has stopped" Report or OK are my only options. I have tried reporting but not sure where it is going.
I do not have any backups or new ROMS on my phone's SD Card so I do not know how to fix this.
Please advise/recommend.
Thank you,

Got the same problem..Ever found a fix to that?
hello,
I've tried a few times to root my device but it doesn't.
i want to try this rom: [ROM][ICS][P920] First ICS 4.0.4 Full 3D ROM Ported From SU760
I also read the guide: [GUIDE] [TOOL] Rooting the "First ICS 4.0.4 Full 3D ROM Ported From SU760" but nothing work.....
I cant instal a zip from SD with rom manager because my device says your device is not rooted....
For rooting my device i used this tool: adb_restore_rooting-v1.2.zip but freezes.
It told me this:
pussing bussybox:
device not found..
i turned usb debuging on, bus nothing worked for me.
who want to help me?
ps: i am from the netherlands, sorry for the bad grammar
Thanks, Dylan
Hi
From my experience the same thing happened to me.my mistake was I did not extract the restore file I jus opened it in the zip folder.extract it to the same folder where you have your zip saved then it will pick up busy box.open rooting.bat from the extracted folder

when yo connect the cell do you hear a guiar sound and two icons apears one usb and a little bug??
because i have the same problem i just push the button to make a call,
now enter the number: 3845#*920# This will redirect you to the full hidden menu. Once there, you can go to the PORT SETTINGS menu and set it to AP USB thanks to member vicionastral
And if you want to upgrade with the LG software, you must set this to AP USB and make it stay. Then when you are upgrading, you must stay vigilant and press (and keep pressed) the volume up button in the moment it reboot the phone (or before it reboots, just to be sure)
This way, a white screen with red text "factory upload" will show and upgrades will have no problems.
(this mode normally only happens when you press the volume up button with the phone off, and then connect it to the usb port and there is an LG software commanding the phone via usb) thanks to member vicionastral
hope works for u
At first did you install lg drivers ?? Is your PC detect it ??
This happened to me . I used adb_restore-rooting v1.6 and it's work .
When you install ICS you install "lg drivers" as v1.1 right ??
I update the drivers to version v3.xx (from lg support tool) and it's works fine .

Hey guys, i'm having USB issues, i connect the phone to my computer, it does not connect, in windows it says failed to install drivers, and my nexus appears as it would be properly connected with the button saying to dismount usb storage in orange colour(you know what i mean) but it doesn't show on my computer and in device manager it shows with a yellow triangle i think this started when i flashed cm-10.1-20130503-Nightly in may, but it's totally weird.
I'm running now Cyanogenmod 10.1.2 Android 4.2.2 (11/7)
before ask:
i have tried different usb cables
i have tried different computers (XP and 7)
i have tried usb debug and all that stuff
i have tried the manual driver install (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1901617) but windows doens't even let me install it it says "your drivers are up to date" and only a close button.
please guys i'm dying without USB storage, what should i do? i really really need usb storage work, just can't figure how....
Could be drivers on phone or windows?
Please help guys a huge THANKS in advance!
does it mount on recovery ???
have you tried changing your kernel ???
have you tried mtp? ( maybe in CM is not supported )
the strange thing is that apparently it works on your device ...
if you need to transfer file you can use airdroid or scatter while u fix this
