Nope. Can't say that I've had that problem. You got the correct Moto drivers installed on your computer? I think these are the most up-to-date..
On a similar note, my sd card is not always remounting after disconnecting the usb lately...
i just installed those drivers, and i'm still having that problem. i'm going try another USD cord. see if that works.

Hopefully a simple fix.. When i plug my unlocked captivate in my computer reads usb device not reognized? So then i went thru to try and format this brand new card and it wont let me select format? Im not sure what to do and am stumped. an help would be appreciated
try a different cable. for some reason mine gets recognized about once out of 50 tries with the cable that came with the phone but when i use a different one it works every time.
tried 2.. no change.. more info.. when i plug the usb in.. it says select usb mode..kies, media player, mass storage or pc internet.none seem to make a difference. but it does seem to let me format the card and does make it appear available in the sd card and phone storage?? its very confusing..
I ran into a similar problem 2 days ago. My phone was fine for 30 days and then all of a sudden the usb port crapped out on the phone. I had tried multiple pc's, my mac which doesnt require drivers and then a trip to the AT&T store. Those idiots were a waste of my time but tried to connect it to a box for sucking down phone numbers and it wouldn't connect to to the phone either. I am not sure if its a problem from a rom I installed but sorry to say they are sending me a replacement phone tomorrow.
I wouldnt have belived it but a co-worker said try a different usb plug on my computer.. Im glad it fixed it.. a little humbled but im posting just because it may happen to someone else. Whats weird is the usb port works with every other device?? strange but true story thanks for the responses...
yeah none of my usb ports in front of the comp worked, tried back usb ports and had no issue, also keep in my i had drivers installed before hand.
win 7 x64
all of a sudden i cant get my PC to see my captivate, at all. So now I cant do Odin! tried all the ports and also another computer. Ideas anyone?
Hey,
Just bought a (used) One S. Trying to go through the process of root/unlock but hit a snag very early on.
The phone will not connect to my computer. I plug in the cord to the computer, then the other end to the phone. It just keeps connecting and disconnecting. Windows 7 recognised thephone as the One S before d/cing
I have tried front and rear usb ports on my computer. I have tried usb 3 ports, i have tried my usb/esata combo ports. Same damn thing.
I factory reset the phone, no luck. I have installed sdk manager. Phone charges normally. EDIT: Phone currently DOES NOT have SIM card inserted.
Any more info needed? Just ask.
Have you tried a different cable?
Or installing the drivers.

Since he described the error as "constant connect/disconnect" the drivers wont help.
It indicates that something is wrong with the connection between the PC and device, such as faulty cable, faulty USB port etc.

Thanks for your help. Drivers were installed. I guess it turns out the usb port on the phone is a bit finicky. I have to plug the cord and secure it on just the right angle or it will not stay connected. Thanks for all the suggestions!!! Now i have a new problem....BUSYBOX will not install feel free to hop over to that thread if you are feeling EXTRA helpful today

Ya didn't see the other thread in till after this one.
1. phone working 100%. USB and all.
2. previously had USB debugging on, plugged into PC & needed ADB drivers so installed the Motorola ones.
3. Windows then tells me unrecognized device, swapped cable, tried different PC, no go. all the same.
4. Whilst in fastboot, same issue.
Things were fine prior to this, which is why I'm finding it odd. I did have USB debugging on & the device plugged in when I installed the drivers but I'm not sure if this was the cause or not. Any help?
Would the usb connector on the phone happen to be stuffed?
Do you have any Linux machines around?
It sounds like typical Windows driver issues, unfortunately.

Windows can't identify the device to even install a driver, this is why I'm finding it a little bizarre. I do have Linux live cds I guess ill give that a try

Would be interesting at least to see what lsusb says.
My device kinda works still, although the screen is broken... Should say something like 22b8:0228 for your Motorola.
Edit - and I guess what I meant to say, is if Windows installs the wrong drivers it may be getting something hosed up.
Nope, no go. Lsusb doesn't even seem to recognise it.
However, when I did factory reset the phone, and plugged it into a mac, the phone responded by telling me that it was in 'charge only' mode; and that usb debugging was enabled [which I did]. Which techincally meant it was working!
but, as soon as I tried to plug it into a PC, same unknown device issue. Back into the Mac, and didn't even register. I'm stumped
Very bizarre.
Any other ideas?
What do you mean lsusb doesn't recognize it...? What's the output?

The output doesn't even list the device connected. I tested this with random flash drives and such, libusb sees them, but when the phone itself is plugged into the machine, it lists the same items [I assume the usb bus] as when it isn't plugged in.
As I said, very bizarre. This seemed to have happened when I had the phone connected to the PC whilst installing the motorola drivers. Weird. & that the phone only charges via a mains plug now, and not thru usb directly.
You said you tried a different cable & PC... did you?
It does sound like USB is broken, water damage perhaps? Seems popular nowadays
(kidding, my Q was water damaged...)
If USB doesn't work in fastboot mode, on multiple USB cables (I'm assuming you have the OEM cable and have tried it first), multiple USB ports, and multiple computers... It does sound like the port is somehow fried. Never heard of such a thing, to be honest. Even my water damaged Q eventually started working on USB again and I was able to RSD it back to stock.
I have already submitted the RMA for this since it is refurbed and I only have a few days left to return it, but I thought I double check here.
I can charge fine, but with two different cables (one is geniune ASUS), I can not get a PC to even acknowledge I plugged in the TF700T....both LInux and Win7.
This doesn't seem to be a common a problem, or I fail at searching so I am assuming it is damaged USB port....

Coud be. Could also be that you do not have the correct drivers installed...
Did your PC install drivers the first you connected to it?

On Linux you don't need a driver. If neither dmesg nor lsusb show any trace of the tablet on more than one PC, I'd also say it's a broken USB port on the device.
Yep lsusb shows nothing...fresh win7... load back it goes....

Or my computer won't recognize my phone... not sure which.
Anyway, when I plug the phone into my computer it still charges, but I don't get the option to use it as a mass storage device, so I can't transfer files between phone and computer.
I got a new usb cord about two months ago and it worked up until now, so I don't think it's the cord.
I've tried taking out the SIM card and battery, restarting phone/computer, installing KIES, toggling USB debugging... not sure what else to try.
Anyone else ever have this problem?
Go into device manager on the pc with the phone plug in. There will be a usb port with an exclamation mark on it. Manually update the driver to android adb interface.

Ok I just tried that... I don't see any exclamation marks anywhere.
I tried reinstalling the drivers from Samsung's website and that didn't work either.

Your pc isn't recognizing that your device is connected at all. It's not a driver issue. It's either the usb cord or the usb port on your phone that's not working
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Free mobile app
Hmm alright... I'll buy another cord and see if that works... thanks.
@jd1639 nailed it, imo. You've either got a bad cord or a bad port. I'd try a different USB port first, and if that doesn't solve it, you know you've got a bad cord.
This seems to be a funny issue cause now all of a sudden it's working... not sure what happened. It could have been installing the driver and then restarting my computer, or playing around with USB debugging again.
I've read other places of guys trying different cords, etc and nothing working, and then they just take their battery out and back in and then it's working again. So ya no idea.
