Hi! I'm having a lot of troubles with my infuse. I connect the usb cable on my phone and make click USB Storage but my PC doesn't bring me the mass storage. I'm also having problems with heimdall and Odin, I cant pass through FACTORYFS, always give an error "factoryfs upload failed" but I could flash and I'm on Port_JW6_SAUROM. I also try with my captivate and the USB mass storage and Odin or Heimdall are working fine but I'm still having the 2 problems on my i997. Any idea of how can i solve this?
Have you tried uninstalling the USB drivers, and then reinstalling them? Here's a download link for them: http://d-h.st/sKF
At one time, I also had problems where Heimdall would fail after a certain point. Ended up being a simple driver issue. I'd try redoing the drivers, and maybe switching USB ports.

I've got the same issue. The phone will charge, but thats it.
Try a different computer, USB cable, USB port, drivers, uninstall Kies and just install the drivers.
If none of that works, it may be the USB port on the phone.

Everything is working fine heimdall and odin are perfect. I can flash with no problem now but windows doesn't mount none of my internal or external SD cards but I can access through the phone without problem. The estrange thing is every communications with the phone are apparently working except windows cannot mount my sd's. I'm going to try lunix. Any advice?

Use the link I provided in post 7 to mount usb. Also linux will work great ( I use Zorin)
Linux advantage- will show internal and external sd.
I have a dual-boot setup on my PC. Windows 7 and Ubuntu 12.04. I actually prefer to boot into my linux drive when I'm going to use Heimdall. Heimdall is already a pretty simple thing to work with, but when done outside of Windows, it seems even a bit more smooth. With Ubuntu, I never have the little Windows USB "quirks" that sometimes show up.

I can access to my sd card but only when it's empty. I can copy file but then i cannot access or the transfers are slow. Any idea why?
EDIT: I'm having Error 0x8007045D: I/O Device error
Is that when using Linux? I'm just a casual tinkerer. I think you need one of the real gurus around here to figure this one out. Google search results for your error code seem to all be centered around problems with Windows and external hard drives. I did find this thread in HP support, maybe it somehow applies to you?

ok, the problem isn't with heimdall or odin, those are fine, the problem is because I can't copy files to my internal or external sd (F, GB, ICS or JB). I try windows and Linux but i can access to the usb only when the internal sd is empty but no transfers of files.
the unique problem now is the transfer of files.I now it sounds like is the cable but i can transfer files on a captivate. HELP!!

The phone is working fine, the port is fine, the cord is fine.
I installed the x64 Captivate USB drivers on my x64 system, and when I hook up the phone it sees the phone, but I can't use it as a "mass storage" device and copy things to it. Any help?

Same happened to me. Try using the x32 drivers.
Worked, I'm on Froyo now, thanks!
Nevermind, I see you got it fixed.
This might be a stupid suggestion but did you Mount the drives? You have to mount the drives before Windows sees them. It will see the phone but not the drives. To mount just pull down the notification area from the top and tap on "USB Connected" then tap "Mount". Not sure if you tried that yet but that's the first thing you need to do after the USB connection is made.
I wiped and cleared everything (cache, SD Card...) from the settings in order to install the new Ice Cream rom which I got working but then wanted to clean everything up. So obviously after doing the formats, it also wiped the zip (icecream). I can access clock work recovery, but it doesn't recognize my USB at all, same machine and cable is fine. I am trying to do it as a USB Mass Storage device but still it cannot recognize it. Any help would me much appreciated.

I'm not sure if you mean SD storage and not USB but you should have never formatted your SD storage.
In clockworkmod recovery there is an option to mount the SD storage. Make sure its mounted and then try activating the USB storage again. This should give you the ability to add a ROM zip file on the SD storage so you can flash it.
Thanks for the reply. Basically I am in clockwork recovery mode, I mount the SDCARD, then I go and select the option "mount USB storage". Sometimes I find that it finds Android 1.0 and I see the I: come up but then goes away quite quickly. But most of the time it comes up as unrecognized.
Now I have 2 cables, both which charge the phone fine. I have used one on a BlackBerry and remember it does the job of connecting as a data connection fine. Also have tried my XP laptop, same result.
My feeling is that it may possibly be the actual USB port on the phone that is the problem but I am unsure in this. It never failed to connect when the phone was working properly (in an actual OS).
You should update your CWM... 5.0.2.0 is the latest version.
But anyway, you don't need to mount SD card then mount USB storage. Only need to do the latest. Once you do this, unplug and replug the phone, the drive should pop up.

When I go into clock work recovery it says USB device Unrecognized. Problem is I don't have anything on the SD I have the ROM on my computer. Whether I go to the mount USB storage menu or not. Unsure what to do?

I imagine you don't have a working adb setup on your computer to update CWM, right?
Boot into CWM with phone plugged in. Go to mount USB storage. If your "SD" isn't recognized, still on that screen, unplug and replug phone. It should get detected then.
Tried this several times keep getting Unknown Device. I installed the SDK with Google Drivers. Unsure if that is the ADB set up.

Yes that's the adb setup.
You might need to manually install the drivers for your phone, although this shouldn't impact on the SD mounting capabilities. Just to make sure, I would get a working adb setup and use fastboot to update your Clockworkmod Recovery to 5.0.2.0.
You can follow this to know how to use fastboot
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Fastboot#Flash_Custom_Recovery.img
If you have trouble getting your phone to be detected and the drivers installed, I suggest you use PDAnet drivers instead (if you're under Windows). Some phones for some reason need .inf driver hacking to get detected.

I will give this a go many thanks.

Just to let you know, I am trying to access USB Storage from clockwork recovery since I don't have any rom on here at all.
This may sound weird but I held the USB in the phone port in an angle, luckily the removable drive came up. I got the the ROM on the SD it has installed and loading. I'll see if its an issue with the USB on the phone later on but as long as it got back up and running (Ice Cream) for now.
Anyway thanks guys much appreciated. I'll be a lot more careful next time before I go around wiping everything especially the SD LOL.

I gathered this much from your posts.
Edit: Glad you got it working. Make sure you get CWM updated whenever you can if you haven't done so, this could lead to problems down the road to flash different zips.

The Nexus S is a difficult phone to brick, luckily. Most of the rooting, bootloader unlocking and flashing steps are easy to follow too.
No problem!

Yeah I think so.
So I just reformatted my computer and now my G2x will not mount. It mounted before format but now it won't. I searched the forums and read other threads about this but nothing works for me. When I push "turn on USB storage" it loads for a few seconds then says "safe to remove SD card". I do not know what to do. I'm running Domination and was trying to go to EaglesBlood.
Any ideas?
EDIT: I also noticed of all the drivers the only one that won't install is LGE Android USB Modem. Tried installing plenty of times and still nothing. That one driver will not work

Try reinstalling your drivers on your computer: http://www.lg.com/us/mobile-phones/G2X-Driver/index.jsp
These are the drivers you are missing, install the drivers, and you won't get the problem.

Reinstall the drivers and reboot your computer? Some people had that problem until they restarted their computer.

Did you try to enable USB debugging as well?
Could it be a missing driver from your system?
Note: occasionally I have to reinstall my drivers because they just stop working every now and then. But, I don't think this has to do anything with this.

First of all, EB Rocks. I've been using it since Gingerbread and it has changed the way I look at my phone.
Second, what kind of computer are you using.
If you're on Windows, I recommend reinstalling the LG drivers again. You can find more on that here -> support.google.com/mobile/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=168931&topic=1088950&ctx=topic. (Sorry - don't have my boyscout link badge yet.)
You could boot into CWM and try to mount the phone that way to make sure your USB cable and connections are kosher.
Good luck
Hi All -
Not a good day for me at all I installed one of the latest Stock Odexed ROM. Then for some reason I wanted to reinstall it so went to Touch v6.0.1.5 recovery and wiped everything without taking nandroid back up as I was 100% sure that I have all my different ROMs in my external card. Then after wiping the device when I went to my external card to install the ROM I found nothing in there !!! Total phone wiped out !!! Now cant even go to Download Mode to install a ROM using odin. Tried adb reboot download but still No luck. Cant go to download mode. May be my USB cable or PC has issues, wont detect my phone right now every time I want to go to download mode it goes to recovery mode. Hence cant install any ROM. Please help !!!
I also installed the Samsung USB driver but still my PC wont detect my phone.
My device is Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket.
You help is highly appreciated.
Thanks.
If you can still access recovery just DL another ROM and flash it. I must be missing something here. Is the phone usable?
Most likely it's the OP that's missing something, being in panic.
OP, get an SD card, load any ROM on it, insert it into your phone, boot to recovery, install ROM, profit.

Thanks buddy but the problem is I cant access my Micro USB Card. The phone doesnt boot and gets stuck at the SAMSUNG logo.
In both TWRP and CWM recoveries you have "Mount USB storage" option.
Connect your phone to PC with USB cable, use that option, and copy the ROM right on your USB storage.
Or grab a card reader for $1 from eBay To have one just in case. Or use any other phone (family/friends) for copying the ROM on the SD card. So many options...

Thats the only option I see Jack_R1, either buy a card reader or use friends one. I tried Mount USB Storage before but nothing happened. And other issue I have been having for last few weeks is - my PC wont detect my phone, it says unrecognized device or something. So I have been using FTP for transferring ROM and other files to my phone.
But I will try with a card either for now. Hope that helps otherwise will need guidance from expert ppl like you all.
Thanks again. Appreciate for your quick responses.
You said in the OP that you tried adb reboot download. So do you have adb installed? If so have you installed the google drivers?? Here's the link:
http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html
If you don't have them installed do so. Then type:
Code:
adb devices
You might need to exit SDK manager and reboot your comp before it shows. Also there is a program called usbdeview you can DL to remove any drivers you have installed that might coflict.
Never heard of having recovery but not download.... Sure you don't have a usb cable/connection problem?

He most probably has a problem with USB port - requiring some cleaning (and hopefully nothing more). Likely one of the data (D+/D-) pins isn't connecting.

As you guys suggested - I am cleaning the USB Drivers. usbdview looks a pretty handy tool didnt know about this one. Download ADT and Google USB driver. Will try it out soon.
But now my phone is back to its' life Thanks so much to all of you !!! I dont know how it formatted both the sdcard and external storage !!!Any idea? Can a ROM do this? (well fortunately I backed up all my files from the Micro SD last night)

Jack_R1 - what is the best way to clean the USB port? I will keep you posted if driver clean up and re-installation helps to detect the phone or not.
Toothpick and gently going over all contacts inside the socket.
Prying up on the prong ever so gently(it really don't take much) with a toothpick worked for me. Although now that I think about it, the toothpick may have just helped clean it ^^^

I'd be more inclined to try another PC. Maybe some driver you installed is causing issues. When you mount your phone, go into your device manager and try deleting any phone devices or storage that appear, then reconnect and maybe it will install the correct driver.

Somehow CWM/TWRP recoveries were always fu*** up for me when it comes to USB connection ... Theoretically it depends on your PC drivers when its not working and you got the newest version of TWRP.
I cannot access files via usb storage in twrp, an unknown device appears in device manager on pc it named "One S" but it's unknown and nowhere to find a f**in driver for it... I cannot install ANY os on the phone now and I'm feeling very stupid. OTG doesn't work I cannot tick USB OTG in Mount menu, what a damn phone..............
