can anyone help me i downloaded the 64 bit drivers for the epic but windows 7 still is not recognizing the phone any suggestions or proper downloads
I have a captivate but I was going crazy with my phone not connecting at work, turns out it didn't like that the USB was plugged into the monitor. Once I plugged it directly into the tower it was no problem.
Don't know what mode you are in but I put my phone in USB debugging. Don't know if its the same for the epic.

thanks working fine now
So I got an incident with my phone, if you wanna now about it, its at my sig, but the thing is that I dunno why or how, sometimes my computer does recognizes my phone and display the Turn on USB storage option at the notification bar, but each time I try to turn it on it just wont work. Attached is a logcat whenI try to enable it, maybe someone could tell me why it wont work.
What rom are you running for those off that are on the xda application?

Normally I got two nandroids a GB based one and an ICS based one, right now Im using both Eagle's Blood 2.3.7 v2.8 and ICS 4.0.3 Build 1. But I had this problem since... always. I'm a flashaholic so i have tested actually every rom from stock 2.2.2 to beta 4.0.3... I even have a nandroid of my original ROM (the one that came with it when y bought it and rooted it) and not even there works. The only clue i have right now is that only if I disable USB debugging it will randomly connect.
This may sound dumb but have you tried a different usb cable? I had the same problem and tried my girls and my phone was able to connect each and every time. another thing I noticed with my phone is that it sometimes won't connect using windows 7...xp no problem but 7 it plays hard to get.

No man, doesn't sounds dumb, actually if you read the "issue" background on my sig, you'll notice that I have made all those steps... its not a big deal, there are SDCard Readers and the bluetooth but... itw not the same.

Ok but my bad I can't see your sig since I use the app most of the time. Yea its not the same

Holy Mother of God! I did it! In one of those "random" times my comptuter recognized my phone I just pulled out the batt unplug/plug again the cable, keeping both vol buttons pressed and it reconginzed the APX decive! Then all I had to do was NVFlash again, restore the stock 2.2.2 Nandroid i had somewhere and play a bit with the USB mount/debbug options, flashed both storages (using gparted for the microSD) and it works! Now have to restore everything to my SD and reflash latest cm7...
Nice!

Did you ever figure this out? Sounds like your having the same problem that i am.
I've tried at least 6 different cables, home PC, work PC, laptop and a co-worker's PC that didn't have anything vmware installed (had a hunch that vmware usb drivers were the cause). Oh, all the computers were win7x64.
I've only rooted my phone and upgraded to 2.3.3 so nothing crazy going on there and it's worked for months since i did both of those.
I have a feeling that this may have been a recent windows update, but no clue when or which one because i haven't really cared that it didn't work. If i had to guess i'd say mine stopped working about 3 months ago... again, hard to remember.

Make sure usb debugging is turned off.
Plug in the phone, enable usb storage.
Right click on the phone drives in the explorer and click on eject.
Turn off usb storage.
Unplug and plug in again.
Enable usb storage.
Drives should work now.
This did it for me. Since then if I remember to eject before unplug I haven't seen any issues.

Thanks for the reply, I'll give that a shot.
Curious though, when yours was having problems, did windows detect anything? For instance, when I plugged mine into my co-workers pc there are zero pop ups about new hardware detected.

I had the same problem. Dirt in the mini-USB port can cause that problem.
Take a can of compressed air and blow it into the mini-USB port (blowing with your mouth isn't enough). Also, take a close look at the port with a magnifying glass and look for any dirt or discoloration in there.
Do the same with your cable.
Not working after install RemICS 1.3.2

Hi, this problem occur to me after I've installed RemICS 1.3.2 ROM (CM9 based), I did follow the installation steps from beginning, when the problem occur, I did re-flash the same ROM several times, but this problem still unsolved.
I did try all recommendations (blow out dirt, disable usb debugging etc) but still not success.
This ROM should able to detect USB when phone connected with PC, but somehow I don't know why. Any experts recommendation?

Ok, I just found the problem. I can hear now the tone of PC detected USB when plugged-in, and I update the driver. then Voila!!
Thanks All..

Hey, just thought I'd register an account because I stumbled upon this thread because I had the same issue verbatim and I managed to get it working.
I ended up using the USB 3.0 ports on my desktop and suddenly it picks up my g2x without fail everytime. With that said, I'm lead to believe that perhaps its an issue of power. Maybe the USB 2.0 ports you're using simply aren't providing enough power. Not sure what its worth or if my issue was something unrelated but maybe that bit of information is something to work with. =)
Found another solution that fixed the problem for me.
If you are using Windows XP, log on as an Administrator and open Device Manager
Select View > Show Hidden Devices
Scroll down to Storage Volumes, and expand
Right-click on each entry and select Update Driver.
This fixed the problem for me!
All of a sudden I can charge but laptop won't recognize Infuse - any idea how to fix? It's not a cable or port or computer problem. I've tried on multiple machines with cords and various ports.
I just installed Unofficial CM10 JB 8/11 and have had this problem for the past few days.
Any idea how to fix? Not sure if it's the rom or what? Thanks!
Uh oh... sounds like you have my old problem with my infuse.... the usb controller may have died, usb port should be fine however. I had a pro unbrick my infuse because it was bricked and wuldnt connect to anything (mobiletechvideos) and he figured out that something usb was broken. For free he replaced the hub but still didnt work. He had to perform jtag to get it working (extremely complicated, requires taking the phone apart). He said it would be a lot easier and cheaper to just get a new phone hopefully your situation is different but goodluck, just saying whats happened to me, and some others have reported it happening.

So... I got a Tab 2 10.1 last week from amazon after 3 days of use the Tablet died, no power, no signal, tried charging and all troubleshooting I found through the internet in the ended decided to send it back and got a replacement Tablet from Amazon.
Yesterday I got the new one and let it charge all night, this morning I got to set it up, everything was working great until I decided it was time for me to root it and transfer some music to it. When I connected it to my pc i got an error message saying "USB Device is not recognized" error message said something like the device had malfunctioned. Funny thing is that the tablet charges perfectly, although I do know that the pins it uses to charge and data transfer are not the same.
Having hopes in my tablet and my luck decided to check if it was for some reason in USB Debugging, it was not.
*Removed Kies, and all Samsung related drivers, rebooted and reinstalled the drivers alone, nothing.
*Unistalled the drivers rebooted and installed latest kies...nothing...
*Tried using a friends cable to see if that was the issue, nothing. *
Tried cleaning the port, nothing.
*Tried both cables, mine and my friend's, on a different computer and still nothing!.
So I have ran out of options and ideas and I'm really frustrated as I can't believe I've so much bad luck as to get 2 damaged tablets in a row.
Is there anymore troubleshooting I can do before I ask for a refund? I'd really appriciate any help that you guys can provide me.
Just a hunch... Are you on win7 x64?

Yes, I am. Does it have to do with that?
Samsung's drivers and ODIN don't play nice with win7 x64. It works for some but not others. Use someone else's 32-bit PC, or try Heimdall Suite.

I've never had a problem with win 7 x64 with my Tab 2 10.1. What I would recommend is use a different USB port or try several different USB ports.
If that doesn't work, you likely have a bad USB port on your tab. Samsung should honor their warranty and replace it.

Hello again! So I recently picked up a Galaxy S 4g for a good deal, and now for some reason, I can't connect it to my pc. I plug it in via usb, I've tried all the USB settings, and my pc won't recognize it at all. I've searched everywhere on the web, and on these forums, and still no dice. I found another similar thread from about a year ago, and nobody really gave a concrete answer there. I've tried in debug mode also. The phone charges when it is plugged in, but that is all. I installed the Kies Mini and the drivers on my work pc (Win7 x64) and it still won't recognize my phone. At home I'm running Win8 x64, and Kies Mini won't even download the drivers, it just sticks at 0%. If anyone has any ideas as to why it won't work, or options that I can try, it would be greatly appreciated. Also, it is not rooted. The point of this is to try to root it. I've rooted many other Android phones without issue. This one's being a tricky little bugger!
Thanks in advance.
You will need to install the drivers for your phone on the pc. Also check out your usb cable some give me problems

Had a similar problem on my win7 laptop. Decided to start over on my winXP pc and Kies mini worked to install drivers.
Well I've tried multiple USB cables, and both of the ones I have work with my Windows phone so im pretty sure those aren't the issue.
I will set up a PC with XP today then and see what happens. Will post with results. Thanks in advance!

I got it to work! Here's how:
I tried installing XP on a pc that I was setting up for my grandma, and still had the same problem. Having been working on this for a few days, I got frusturated, and brought it to my Dad to have him give it a go (he's done tons of rooting/unlocking on tons of phones, and he is in the 360 modding scene) and lo and behold, he got it. It was just the USB cables I was using I guess. He hooked it up with the cable from his Kindle Fire, and it worked instantly. Looks like I just need to pick up a new cable, because all 3 of mine are ****ty >.>
Thanks for the help guys!
Make sure MTP is checked under storage -> press menu -> USB Computer connection
EDIT: sorry i didnt see you had it solved
