[Q] Usb device not recognized ! NO ODIN . help :(

Hello friends .
I have installed -= [ROM-Leak][ODIN] Gingerbread 2.3.4 T959VUVKG4 =-
on my galaxy s 4g using ODIN 1.7 and everything was working fine .
Then i found another rom that i like and would like to change .
but now when i go into download mode by plugging usb cable on my phone after pressing vol up + vol down button . my com port does not show on ODIN and windows says - "USB DEVICE NOT RECOGNIZED"
This is very sad as i am not able to change roms
can any 1 help .
till now i have only used ODIN for roms , i am a little noob at cwm .
help would be appreciated .
thank you
It is redundant, but you have to uninstall ALL Samsung USB drivers, restart the PC, reinstall the USB drivers, do the download-mode on phone, plug it in, SHOULD pick up... IF NOT, do the above all over again. This is what I do when mine does this.. Sometimes it works right away, other times it takes a few reboots, but eventually the PC WILL install the "device" and Odin3 will pick it up.
i have already tried unistalling and reinstalling thrice . No help . Ive also tried 3 diff usb ports .
It is a pain, but this method was the only thing that worked for me.. it took some time.. and patience. Even went through this last-night while flashing from KC1 to KG4, and then to KH2... KG4 seems to be the trouble maker with the USB issue...
thanx . somehow the other download screen appered [ phone -->yellow -->pc ]
and i installed another rom . everything is ok now . thanx for the help
Glad to hear it worked out for you. Sounds like soft-bricking helped you out a bit in this case. They are usually nothing to really fear as long as you can get into either Download mode or that screen mode, ROMS Will always flash with Odin into either one.

oh ! ok . nice .
wonder why arent all roms made for odin ? :S
I also found out that some windows updates for windows 7 was causing a ruckus with recognizing sg4g and other phones. I am having this problem now. I will try the suggestion, although i've done it 10 times. But I need my phone, I have to make calls regarding my dad (just died and I cant afford to not have contact. TIA
did you fix it?

i think i broke my infuse :(

first of all it was working all good with jvu saurom port then out of curiosity i decided to go for jbparanoid,
after that everything is good but i decided to go back to gb(jvu saurom port) i cant seem to load it to red cwm after flashing the port of jvu,
so i tried formating /system/cache/data still no red nor regularbootup
stupidity strikes i decided to format boot :crying: there i got the samsung logo but wont even start to boot nor i cant access blue or red cwm :crying::crying:
now im on my laptop trying to go back to stock and Download mode it cant even show the option its just samsung logo and it cant even be recognized by my laptop tried uninstalling everything that relates to samsung and fresh install kies and samsung drivers but no luck tried heimdall/odin it doesnt go it cant even recognize my phone :crying::crying:
i need help im pretty close to darkness here :crying:
THANKS
btw my laptop is running windows7 64bit
Try pulling the battery then put battery in and hold volume up and volume down then plug in USB cable and see if it goes into download mode. If it doesn't the ONLY two things that will possibly work is a USB jig or getting a memeber who can JTAG it and recover it for you.

Sometimes it's just a matter of waiting and perseverance. Try disconnecting your phone from the computer, taking the battery out, leaving it for 10 mins. & then coming back and trying again.

do you get any kind of error message when you try to connect the phone.... I had a similar problem and had to redownload the drivers ..... then was able to get the computer to recgonize the phone... the other issue you might have is a bad USB cable.

[Q] Bricked in Recovery mode!

I have a TF101 SN60 - SBK1. I was trying today to root it to instal a stupid USB modem app and i bricked it.
Right now it is in recovery mode and i can`t get it out. Tried all the combination of the buttons and still doesn`t work.
I tried to reput the stock rom from Asus and i had success(2 times) but was still in recovery mode and after that i tried once more and it failled.. now i have 7 " !!!!! phone update failled !!!!" and i am very pissed and mad as i do not know what to do no more. I wasted 5 hours today trying to do something to it but i can`t no more. Please help me with some tips or maybe help me put it back to it`s normal state. Thank you.
Which recovery and version do you have installed, and how did you install it?

Have you tried APX mode?
I would try another PC, or get a new charging cable. It is possible for the USB cable to charge but not work for USB. Happened to me.

[Q] SCH-i200 Stellar/Jaspervzw Bricked? Any solution?

So today, I tried to install TWRP onto a standard, 4.0.4 Samsung Stellar. Followed the instructions, went through Odin, and it failed with auth errors. Well, crap. Reboot the phone, get into there, and try to use GooManager to do it for me. I let it do the standard OpenBootloader or whatever, didn't work. So then I tried EZ-Unlocker. Unlocked just fine, until I turned off the phone. Try booting it, nothing happens; no vibration, no sound, no screen, nothing. I thought this was a dead battery (The battery was running at literally, 3% after I used EZ-Unlocker), so I plugged it in. No red light. Take out the battery, slap it back in. Same result, nothing happens to the phone. Well, crap. Try holding the power button again, nothing happens. Connect it to my computer and it reads it as some QUSB or whatever; look that up, download and installed a driver file for Qualcomm, and now Odin3Execution recognizes it, but Odin 3.07 doesn't. However, I still cannot use Odin to try flashing a new ROM onto it or anything because I cannot get into Odin mode. I was thinking of buying a USB jig to get it into Odin, but I want to confirm with someone else that this is a full hard-brick and not me being stupid.
tl;dr: Stellar doesn't boot at all; power button unresponsive, cannot get into recovery or download/odin mode; computer recognized it as QHSUSB_DLOAD, installed drivers to get it to be recognized as a Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 at COM7. Very similar to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=822939 but just a different phone.
edit: I found this: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/109153-howto-unbrick-a-bootloader-bricked-stellar/ but the download link times out. I'm willing to try this since it may solve the problem. Does anyone know where I can find a mirror of the download link?
edit2: I just sent a PM to invisiblek here on XDA.
edit3: And thanks to invisiblek, I managed to get it into download mode! Solved; if you want the stella-unbrick file, shoot me a PM and I'll upload it somewhere.
I an also looking for solution and need your help.

Kindly help and hope to get back from you soon

I hooked it back up and now in kies it just says connecting but nothing happens.
i tried putting my phone in download mode to see if itll connect to kies and still nothing. The phone wont allow me to get into recovery mode due to this issue. Im a mac user so i even downloaded wine to use odin i downloaded all samsung drivers needed for a connection and odin cant even detect my phone. Im not sure if usb debugging is on in my phone . I cant access nothing on my phone i tried many tricks on youtube looked at xda forms i even went into tmobile and they didnt kno what to do.
