I am in desperate need for a stock recovery.img for my LG-P509.
My stock android 2.2 was recognized by "LGMobile Support Tool" and updated to stock 2.2.2.
I rooted my phone with Gingerbreak, then i forgot to make a manual backup of my original recovery.img (thru a terminal emulator), then i installed a custom recovery (ClockworkMod 5.0.2.0 - Old BB), and then i did a full system backup.
Now my phone is no longer recognized thru usb by any computer so i can't run any computer based tools, I would want to flash an original firmware from LG thru the "LGMobile Support Tool" or "KDZ updater" (i already have an original "V10S_00.kdz" firmware from LG to restore everything), but the problem is i have no USB access.
I have installed, uninstalled, reinstalled the LG United Mobile Driver (USB Driver for Windows), LG Android Driver, LG USB WML Modem driver, LG SP Usb Driver Installed and LG Support Tool.
I've tried the different combinations of:
"USB Debugging" off, "Mass Storage Only" on with sd card
"USB Debugging" on, "Mass Storage Only" off without sd card
I did this on the win 7 machine that once recognized my phone, then i tried on another machine with win 7, then i tried on a fresh install of win 7 and none recognized the phone (about to try on a fresh xp instalation).
I tried "LGMDP-v1.5" and it also didn't recognize it.
The phone devices (either as a phone, lge modem or usb storage) do NOT show up on the device manager (either correctly installed or as a problem device).
The computers do not even make the usual peripheral sound when the phone gets pluggled in, but they do it with usb keys, mice, keyboards, etc.
The phone does recognize the usb connection because:
When plugged to the computer usb it starts charging and makes available the option "usb tethering" on the phone.
When plugged to an outlet with the same cable and a usb charger it starts charging but doesn't make available the option "usb tethering" (as expected).
I tried different cables and got the same result.
Tried reinstaling the USB hubs, tried rebooting with the phone plugged in, tried removing the WPD drivers (as per some threads online: wpdmtp.inf and .pnf)
I've installed different ROMS and been able to restore backups without issue; i feel like i've run out of options and hope that the original recovery.img gives an emergency option to be able to connect to a pc.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, i've been at this non-stop for 2 days and going insanely frustrated.
Boot into recovery, then connect phone to pc, then it will be detected and will install drivers itself

I had tried booting into recovery mode and plugging it in and nothing happened, tried the same with emergency mode, then tried both with the pc off and then turning it on. (i did this with the clockworkmod 5.0.2.0 recovery and with amon-ra 3.0.6 recovery). I thought the usb port itself may be damaged but it still charges and the phone does recognize the presence of usb data capability (because of making the option "usb tethering available).

Not sure when USB stopped working but nothing I've done let's my HTC One X (AT&T) connect via usb. I'm running CM10.1 and have tried both MTP and USB Storage and none of my PC's will see my phone.
I'm running TWRP 2.5, which I just updated today. When I boot into recovery and mount USB, my PC shows nothing. I boot the phone into recovery and the fastboot line says fastboot AC instead of fastboot USB. I've tried 3 different cables, an older cable that came with a MyTouch 4G, the HOX cable, and a generic USB cable. All three cables work with my wife's HOX, though hers is stock.
I've also tried on two different laptops (one vista, one win7), my PC (win7), even ran an Ubuntu VM on my PC and nothing.
HTC Sync Manager has been installed and is currently uninstalled though I do see the HTC Driver in Programs so it is there. Some times when I plug the phone in I get an error from Windows about the USB device not installing right. One odd thing is I don't see the device anywhere in device manager, nothing other Other, Android Devices or anything like that.
Developer options are turned on, with Android debugging, USB debugging notify turned on. Root access is set to Apps and ADB.
I've tried other things I've found such as turning the phone off and plugging it into the USB and letting windows detect that way. Pretty much at a loss at this point.

Helping a gentleman with the same issue in another thread, it sounds to me like a hardware issue.
I'm loading a ROM on this Nexus S i9020A. I have unlocked the bootloader and flashed CM 5.0.2.0.
When I boot into recovery, the Windows 7 host reports "This Device Can Perform Faster" and recommends moving the phone to a different port. However all ports on the computer are USB 2 or USB 3. I have tried other ports just in case and I get the same warning.
When I try to download files with ADB PUSH, it takes forever (5-10 minutes), indicating that it is probably running at USB 1 speeds.
Windows Device Manager reports that it is using the "Android Composite ADB Interface" as the USB driver for the phone.
I have performed a ROM update using the same procedure on another Nexus S on the same computer with the same drivers, and I did not have this issue.
Why does this happen, and how can I solve it? Is there something wrong with the phone or its USB port?
As a workaround, it seems to be possible to unplug the USB cable and plug it back into the same port. In the few times I tried it, it would correctly connect at full speed. There must be some timing issue when the USB port is initialized in CM Recovery that causes the problem with Windows.
So I wiped my phone, went to flash the unofficial kitkat CM rom, and found out I had the wrong recovery version. No biggie, I thought, I'll just reflash my backup ROM. Well, it wasn't where I left it, so now I'm stuck without a ROM to flash. That was okay, though, I could just push one via adb. Then my computer gave me the "USB device not recognized" thing, and so I've tried reinstalling drivers, cleaning the registry, rebooting many times, and all to no avail. I'm lost! Wise ones of XDA, what can I do?
Bump. I really could use some help, I use my phone for work and school and it's a paperweight in it's current state.
I'm guessing you have no access to an sdcard? Looks like you need to use Odin to go back to stock then reroot and unlock. Try uninstalling the drivers then boot your S3 into download mode (hold volume down, home, and power) follow the on-screen prompt, then plug your S3 into the computer to force install new drivers. Now, unplug and pull the battery and try flashing stock, and root/unlock. Try another port, keep the computer plugged into the wall, and also make sure you're using the Samsung USB cable.

No sd card. My computer shows the same "USB device not recognized" message while the phone is in either download mode or recovery, and while using my samsung usb cable and a new one I bought yesterday evening. I've deleted every driver for it, tried every port, and it's the same thing every time. EXCEPT, for some reason, when I plug it into my USB 3.0 ports, it shows up in device manager under "other devices- unknown device", but when it's plugged into my USB 2.0 port, it shows up under "USB controllers- unknown USB device (invalid device descriptor)".

If its not connecting to your main computer, try another computer. Honestly though, I think you need to purchase a cheap sdcard (format it to Fat32) and put a rom on there. Cuz you can still access download mode and also recovery correct? Maybe by then, there will be a few more replies or some idea that will get you in the right direction.

I just have my laptop. I've bought an sd card now, but I don't have a reader. When I fix this I'll put a backup on there I think I'm just going to reinstall windows and get a fresh start. Then maybe I'll be able to ADB sideload a rom.
I had similar problem
After I screwed up my device, this was the way I got the right recovery installed in order to flash 4.4
I cant post links in posts yet, I'll pm you the link.
Hi,
Have a TF101 tablet here stock rom, stock recovery...
However it seems the USB will not detect on a windows PC tried multiple cables multiple PC's tried from recovery nothing is detected in device manager at all. Tablet doesn't even detect that its connected to PC either.
Is there anyway to root this thing without USB??? I need to root it so I can install recovery and flash another rom.
Thanks,
Which Windows version are you running?
If you use Win 7 and prior you should be able to connect with the universal naked drivers manually installed from device manager
Win 8 and above need driver signing disabled or they wont install the driver and the PC wont see the TF
If you have already tried the above, you might need a new cable

Thanks. Well i tried windows 7 x64 and windows 8 x64, neither showed any device or unknown device in device manager... Tried multiple cables as wel, no dice...
Shouldn't MTP work regardless of drivers installed in windows 7/8 ?
Are you putting the TF into APX mode?
Connect TF to PC USB > Power Off TF > Hold Power & Volume Up until the PC recognises it (Only takes a couple seconds, nothing appears on the TF screen) then install drivers
You need APX mode for Easyflasher
For normal media transfer, it will still need to install at least some USB type driver, as do all USB devices to function, possibly not the APX drivers
Check in Developer Options > USB Debugging mode
Try it enabled and disabled with the TF plugged in
But really the MTP drivers are not what you need if you want to root. you need APX mode to work (As above)

Doesn't seem to do anything when I hold power vol+, the screen of the tablet (blank/off) and on the pc nothing is being detected.
I can get to the bootloader/recovery via holding power vol- though. Also tried USB debugging mode... nothing is detected whatsoever... ordering another cable on ebay will see if that works but I doubt it since it seems to be a common issue with this tablet (port not working with pc)
I edited my post
Nothing will appear on the TF screen in APX mode until data transfer begins
The cheap non genuine cables are renowned for data connection failing, genuine cables are recommended
I still have my original cable and it still works 100%

Using the original cable, I still can't tell if its in APX mode, installed all the drivers provided by asus, nothing is detected in windows device manager. I'm 100% its not being detected ie. no connection. I ran easyflasher anyway both sbk1 and sbk2 says it flashed recovery but it never did still the stock recovery is on the tablet.
Will try again once the new cable comes in, thanks.
Forget the ASUS drivers, use the Universal ones from the Easyflasher thread
Here's what will happen when its working as intended
When you plug the TF into the PC, no matter what mode it is in, the PC should sound the USB connect sound
When you power off the TF, then put it in APX mode, the PC will again sound the USB connect noise, then it will fail to install the correct drivers
That's when you open Device Manager, find the ! missing driver ! exclamation mark, and update drivers manually pointing it to the extracted Universal drivers
Once you have installed them, then Easyflasher should work as normal
So unless you actually have a hardware fault on the TF, or the USB ports of the PC, Id hedge my bets on the cable
Have you tried a different PC?

Ok, well ya thats the thing no sound or detection of anything when plugging it in, or going into apx mode, rebooting etc...
I tried 2 cables and 2 different PCs. Will try a new cable but I betting that is won't work either... we'll see.
Thanks again
No need to bother with cables and drivers, just download Baidu Root: https://app.box.com/s/pyehf9fh4xem3hy50dot
EDIT: The app has built-in su access management, but I'd recommend installing SuperSU from the Play Store.

Hey,
I have a WileyFox Storm, which runs Cyanogen OS as sotck (kipper). At the moment, it has TWRP CR (which is a special version for the Storm), but is not rooted.
A couple of weeks ago, I tried to connect my Storm to my PC (which I have connected it to before) via USB. However, it did not connect. There was no Window's 'chime' or notification (anywhere), and my phone was not on 'device manager' or 'printers and devices'. I had enabled USB debugging (I also tried it disabled), I had got the ADB drivers for the Storm and etc.... but all my phone said was that it was charging. I tried using different USB ports (both 3.0 and 2.0) and different USB cables. I also tried wiping dalvik and cache.
I now want to restore to factory image, however I don't know how to do it if my phone can't connect to my PC.
Please help!
Thanks )

Possible workarounds :-
1)Flashing a TWRP backup (if you have one). OR
2)Connecting to a different computer and flashing stock rom. OR
3)Dual booting a different version of Windows on your PC and flashing stock rom using the other OS.
