I have a Samsung Fascinate and my phone won't connect to my computer! A few days ago, I was on rooted stock and I noticed it wouldn't connect to my PC. I did a data wipe and installed MIUI and noticed the problem was still going on. I thought it was no big deal but now it is VERY annoying! I've tried it on my Windows 7 computers and one XP computer and none of them work! They all say that it can't be recognized. I have accidental insurance on it and the person at BestBuy mobile said I can root it without voiding it. I don't know if installing a ROM (MIUI) voids it or not. I'm trying to do an Odin restore and when I put it in download mode, Windows still says that it can't recognize it. I want it on stock before calling them about it. I'm thinking this is a hardware issue. Anyway to get it off of MIUI and back to stock without a PC?! :'(
have you tried going to settings/development and un checking USB Debugging? worked for me after update.
Yes, make sure USB Debugging is not selected, as this will prevent your device from entering storage mode and be picked up by your Computer.
Also, make sure that you're using the original USB data cable that came with your phone. Other cables might allow charging, but won't work for data.
or...
if still doesnt work, try a factory reset (sorry)
I am using the original cable. And USB Debugging is unchecked. It also won't detect my phone in download mode...? Could it maybe be the USB?

Did you download the ADB usb drivers? Also, be very careful downloading the Samsung Drivers and updating Win 7. They broke two of my computers.

and it;x doneitx working nw
Hi, i have been restlessly searching XDA and the web for a solution to a problem i have with my HD2 (EU version - o2). I normally flash a new ROM every weeks or so just to keep up to date with the latest ROMs and stuff and its just become a hobby of a sort. I have MAGLDR and flashed with "NexusHD2-Gingerbread_V3.2a_NAND_(Android-2.3.7)". I have been using this ROM for about a week and so now with no problems whatsoever.
The problem i am experiencing now is that i am trying to do a full wipe (task29) using the HD2 toolkit in order to flash a fresh ROM. My USB cable is working perfectly fine and my PC recognises USB when i am booted in Android. But for some reason i get no connection to USB while in boot loader mode. Afer the usual RED BLUE GREEN at the bottom of the screen u get SERIAL when not connected to USB but when i connect it to USB its just blank and not picked up by the PC... Why is this? I dont know, but i sure hope someone can help me out.
Peace
Anyone? Please?
I don't know if this is a problem with my USB cable, or my phone, or maybe even my Powermac G5. Lately, the USB transfer hasn't been working on any ICS rom on my Mac. It works fine on the PC, but on the Mac I have to use USB storage in Clockwork Recovery.
Today, for the first time, I tried it even in CWM and the Mac told me it was opening it with limited use, and that I should back it up as soon as I can and reformat/repartition/basically fix it. I've never had that happen before.

Sounds like you might need drivers for Mac...?

Seems to say that changing the USB port might help.
Hello everyone, I'm new here in XDA community, but been guest for almost a year now. I would like to post my concern in behalf of people using Samsung Galaxy S GT-i9000. I really have problem with when I connect the usb to my pc, it shows on my phone to turn on mass storage, so I did. Now when I turned on, the usb mass storage exits itself and the pc says the USB DEVICE IS NOT RECOGNIZED. I really have tried almost everything, I tried downloading drivers, uninstall and install again the usb device and it won't just work. I really don't know what to do now, I'm using [JB] Helly Bean - GT-i9000 as rom and CWM. I have tried this in a different pc, no luck at all. This happened when I installed PARANOIDANDROID rom and GAPPS and transferred it on my phone, it just freezes and before you know it, usb connection is gone. I really need your help, I've been reading lots and lots of solutions, I want to hear from you what can I do to restore my mass storage connectivity. Any solution you can share, maybe it might work Thank you all.

It can due to a bad USB connection, wrong storage connection options on the device, and so on. Which PARANOIDANDROID version are you using? The 4.1 version is probably having issues on this case. If nothing solves the problem, enable usb debugging, and install QtAdb to access your storage through the ADB bridge.
Hello
I'm having the same issues, what I need to point out is that my i9000 does not even fire up my windows USB dirvers anymore:
For example when I had my phone connected to the pc and it was booting, it would occasionally hear the "found new hardware" chyme but now that does not happen.
The phone still charges but there is no data transfer, I've tried 3 PCs and 3 different USB cables
any ideas ?
Same problem here. tried with different ROMs and multiple PCs. is it a hardware issue or driver related ?
No this is not a driver issue, I even flashed back the stock firmware the phone came with, I think something physically went wrong in the USB module because I cannot find a software fix for this.
another easy question to ask.........jb rom using mtd as third party to transfering data, juz switch back to usb debugging mode in dev sec in setting, if it still doesnt help, check ur custom kernel setting, devillish kernel usually stick to mtd, go to recovery and change it to usb debug in usb connection setting. as semaphore, do not crash da kernel setting with phone setting, choose one, if mackay, thats usb debug default so no prob. as for da one who revert back to gb but still facing same prob, check da usb debug box in dev section in setting, change da port coz ur confusing da windows system with same device but different system!

forgot to mention, mtd device in xp doesnt exist, so try to find it urself as i forgot how i solve it, it takes a week for me to find mtd driver for my dear xp's, as for original user of windows, juz update da driver using windows update. as for those who underground~ing, mtd driver can be found on sgs3 driver.
Hi guys
I've managed to fix it by flashing 2.3.6 JVU from samfirmware the european version hope you guys can fix it as well
Cheers
hello my firend, i want to ask you Is There any way to root and install TWRP without using pc ?? because my phone cant connect to pc and i have try everything and everyway from previous thread the result still same, the only thing i never try is flashing another rom. if i can install twrp so i can flash the rom without connect my phone to pc. i dont know what happen, i think maybe my usb connector is broken, but its brand new phone, so i think its imposible if the usb connector broke because i can still charge my phone. the only problem is it cant charge and connect to mtp mode when pluggen in to pc
