Tab 2 not recognized by PC - Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I installed some cyanogen rom on my tablet and now everytime I try to plug it into my laptop or PC It says USB not recognized device descriptor request failed. I tried with 3 different cables and 3 different computers. I have samsung drivers installed. I just need to get it to connect so I can restore my tablet to stock ROM. I was trying it on my own with mobile odi n(app) and tried to flash it but it went into a loop and deleted recovery. Now the tablet does power on and works - apps crash all the time and no root available. So basically its useless and I do now know what do to... Please, someone just help me out here >.< :crying:

Yes I tried to enable debugging still did not work... I can not flash it because it doesn't get recognized by any computer.

If you manage to get root, then you can use FlashFire from play store to flash the stock rom.

Basically, because what you get is a CyanogenMod, which does not relate to any piece of the Samsung Driver. All you need is Google USB Driver which supports almost all Android phones in the world. A thread in XDA talks about 15 seconds Google USB Driver Program for Windows which can be found somewhere in the XDA thread world.
And more here, for the problem about root access, have you tried installing a SuperSu flashable zip through your recovery yet? That should work a lot. Then, if you update your firmware using recovery without using an OTA update manually, apps may not be compatible and will crash. Reinstalling all your crashing apps from the Google Play Store should help.
Finally, if you want to update your phone through recovery, not an OTA-received ROM, please make sure not to install many apps on it, because when it crashes, you can do nothing but to reinstall it. although, all add-ons (Such as GApps, SuperSu, Xposed Framework, et cetera) need to be reinstalled so you don't lose them during a manual update, so don't delete your flashable add-on zips once you installed, you might need them forever.
Recovery is like a mobile version of Odin, use a Desktop version of Odin so you can get yourself out. A tutorial might be found somewhere on YouTube.
Hope you have a good day,
Shippo

I can't just install a new ROM or recovery - my tab does not get recognized by any PC or laptop

There is a tool called Forget Windows Use Linux in which all necessary drivers come preinstalled and your tab should be recognised from your pc with no problem if it's a driver issue. Try it

Try this slide down from upper left of the screen. If the window indicates charge only, click on it. It should then offer file transfer. In order to get adb to see the tablet turn on deveper options and enable USB debug mode. Hopefully that works for you.

hello
there is something very very very very very old which is called cf autoroot
every needed is in the zip use it

[Q] PC Does Not Recognize Device and Another Dumb Thing I Did

I did a really, really dumb thing a few months ago. I flashed a wrong something or another to fix an issue I had with my keyboard crashing after flashing another wrong thing..
Anywho, I couldn't get the damn keyboard to stop crashing for the life of me, so I set out to FORMAT/ CLEAR EVERYTHING ON MY PHONE. Yikes.
At this point, I can boot into recovery(CWM) and DL mode, but my PC will not recognize my phone at all. I installed your S3 toolkit v7.0, hoping it would help, but nay.
I cannot boot fully into Android to allow usb debugging, etc.
I can mount and unmount internal sd, cache, etc, but no drivers are being installed because it is not being recognized.
I've uninstalled Kies, etc.
HALP!HALP!

I'm waiting on my PC to free up again(currently on a Mac). I had not tried Odin because in the past I was unable to mount internal SD, which I understood was keeping it from being recognized. I instead thought the Toolkit would do the trick automatically, though I most likely had the wrong idea. Everything is mountable again (for some odd reason), so I will give it a go.
Could I accomplish downloading drivers and flashing rom to device using Odin alone? Or should I use the Toolkit?
Thanks!

Installing the drivers is independent from using odin. Install the drivers on the PC, fire up odin, connect phone (that has been booted into DL mode) and see if it connects. If it does, just flash a stock image and you are back in business.
You can use this driver http://d-h.st/vMk

Odin is not recognizing the device. Should I unmount or mount anything on the device for this to work properly? I have drivers installed.

N8010 Problems

Hi,
Figured id start off by explaining the history on my Samsung Note N8010
A while back i installed Hyperdrive Rom RS8 (i think), no problems, flawless. However it did change my device id to an N8013, not sure why.
Recently i wanted to use SkyGo Tablet app, however root cloak and Voodoo does not cloak SkyGo Tablet app on this specific rom so i figured id revert back to the original 4.1.2 stock.
I used Mobile Odin, grabbed the zip/tar from the Sam-mobile and hit go.
On reboot, it would not load in, stuck on the Samsung Note 10.1 splash. I do have access to download mode and recovery mode, but it's labelled Android System Reocvery <3e>.
It is worth noting that USB debug did not work on Hyperdrive, so currently no matter what computer i connect this tablet to Odin, Kies or anything will not see it.
When trying to "apply update from sd card" i get E:\ mount problems, it pretty much fails every time.
Any suggestions?

The original issue is probably one of two things. If you downloaded the rom directly to your device its Likely a bad download. DID YOU CHECK MD5 Before flashing. There are also limitations to Mobile odin.
What i would suggest is to uninstall Kies . Make sure you have no other android devices installed on your computer .Download the older version again from Samsung website. Install on your computer. Download odin again i think you want the one a version back as well NOT Latest.
Reboot into download mode. Run odin. if it still does not see your device check Device manager and see if its showing up with a yellow mark. Look for a post i made last week explaining how to correct usb driver for windows.. Download mode should work with out usb debug on if i remember correctly..

Hi, cheers for the response,
I have tried all of what you have said but unfortunately no PC will see my device, not even an "unrecognized device". I have access to android system reocvery <e3> and Download mode (Odin) but the pc just won't recognized, tried new leads and so forth, nothing.

[Completed] Help! Seriously messed up ROM mod on Galaxy Tab 10.1

So I got this free Galaxy Tab 10.1, and tried adding a Custom ROM to help it run better, and be able to run some apps that the old android 3 os couldn't run. As of now, it has CWM v6.0.3.6 installed, as well as a KitKat ROM. This ROM seems to have been corrupted, and now the keyboard constantly stops working (receiving constant pop ups about it) and it no longer will connect to my PC via USB, although it still charges when it is plugged in.
I made a mistake when I was installing this ROM, and my backup stock ROM was never loaded onto the tablet.
My original thought was to use the install from sideload option to get a different ROM onto it, but it doesn't detect even in Recovery mode.
Odin does detect the device, so is there a way to use this utility to fix this problem? Or maybe some other option that I'm not thinking of?
Thanks for the help

Greetings and welcome o assist. If odin detects your device then kies emergency firmware recovery should work, that will return your tablet to its original state. The other option is to flash a different rom through recovery, just download it to your sd card and then flash it
Good Luck

I booted the device into download mode, where it is detected by Odin. Kies can tell that something is connected, but it just continuously tries to connect. The device does not have an sd card slot, so there is no way for me to add a different rom to it.
EDIT: Kies does not detect anything being connected at all if the device is booted normally.

Additional update:
By using the calculator app to copy paste numbers, I've gotten the device connected to my phone's hotspot, along with my laptop. Perhaps there is some way to force a file download over wifi? The device shows up in my network places on my laptop, but the folder is empty.

If you start kies and select emergency firmware recovery it will ask you to put your phone in download mode and connect it. Does kies recognise it then?

Maybe try the solutions mentioned here:

(the ones you didn't try already of course).
It seems to be a Windows 10 problem so try to check your device with another (preferably not Win 10) PC if you have access to one.

Sry to hear but if it is a driver problem, the only solution would be to manually install the right drive package (64bit in your case probably). If you aren't to, you'd have to unlock bootloader to flash a rom etc which means losing your data.
BUT if you just want to get data from your phone why don't you upload it to something like Dropbox or Google Drive. Or for a direct push try Pushbullet (App for Android and program for Windows, set up with same account) and you can just send those files.

Thanks before, can you give me link for driver Xperia z3 64bit? I cant unlock bootloader if my device isn't detected by computer not for data only, i need charge from laptop if in emergency situations
I did it like 3 years ago so don't know if those links are still working but I did it with those two guides (one is German though):
https://www.randombrick.de/sony-xperia-z3-fastboot-unter-windows-mit-den-richtigen-treibern/
For the manual installations of the driver:
https://android.stackexchange.com/questions/129174/windows-10-fastboot-driver
Direct link to fastboot driver:
http://developer.sonymobile.com/downloads/drivers/fastboot-driver/
Hope this helps.
EDIT: You can also try with the driver installation with flash tool, but you have to disable the windows signature verification check (google, there's loads of tutorials).

Recovery installation on bootlooped G935P

How do I install recovery on a soft bricked galaxy S7 edge. Sprint, that the boooafsr is still locked on. I can access recovery mode and device is recognized when i click apply update from adb, but it disabled updates from external sources. So they all fail. I didn't install recovery beforehand and now I'm in a quadary. Does anyone know if it's even possible to install recovery at this point? And if so, how?

You are saying you want to install recovery, but you can reboot to recovery (?) if you mean that how you can recover your device see the exact build number in recovery screen, download the firmware file and flash it through Odin, tap on "reboot bootloader", this will lead you to Odin, also you can enter to it manually.

Ok, now we're talking. I can see you know what your speaking about. I meant to say, how can I install a recovery app , like TWRP or clockworkmid. Ok i can enter download mode easily enough by clicking the side and power buttons, however, the device isn't recognized by my moto E5 anymore. It's only recognized when i click apply update from adb....even tho when i try to sideload anything that way it ultimately aborts saying updates from external sources is disabled. So...back to Odin.its only runable from a windows OS....is there a version of Odin i can run on a Motorola and flash from it onto my softbricked Samsung Galaxy that's connected via otg cable?

If this is the case and your issue is with a Motorola e5, then it is off-topic to give support here.
Just a side note, Odin is exclusive for Samsung devices, Motorola devices has its own way, you have here all that you want https://forum.xda-developers.com/c/moto-e5.7642/
But if you are trying to revive a Samsung device using your Motorola by installing a flashing tool app as a Windows fashion then you are out of luck, you should need a PC for that.

Yes that's exactly what I'm attempting. See, i had my Samsung Galaxy S7 edge which is soft bricked in recovery mode, while connected to a moto E5 play, which i used as a master device to send adb commands to my Samsung. I am trying to recover my Galaxy. I know that Odin only works on windows, and my inability to secure access to a PC is a major obstacle. The circumstances causing that are extremely varied and complicated, lol, however, impossible. So...i have other androids to serve as the master device or i can download zip files on to SD cards and try to apply updates from them through recovery mode,tho it says those options are disabled when i try. But those are my options, bro. Is there no way to run Odin or a android version of Odin to accomplish this? Can I somehow run a windows OS on an Android just for the purpose of running Odin 3 to flash firmware on my bricked Galaxy?

I know you can use other device as a master to serve some files but if the stock Samsung recovery doesn't allow updates this way then it is out of reach, but you should try it using ADB sideload not updates from external devices BUT only you could flash this way official updates not TWRP nor any custom zip, if you have some OTA update you should try it using an external SD Card if I don't remember bad your device has a slot for that.
Odin only can run in Windows PC, and its equivalent for Linux is Heimdall, there is not actually a version that completely support into Android.
Probably you could further investigate something like "Running Linux on Android devices", there were some Linux distros in Play Store that can boot, this way you could install Heimdall and get it a try using download mode, but this just theoretically, I didn't try it my self, fixing it through a PC sometimes is hard enough that not even think of this way.

Nothing wrong at all with theory, as it forms the basis of every action. And I'm about to try that next. Check this out tho. That sideload thing that's entertwined with apply updates via adb. See I'll try to attach picture, but when in recovery i click apply updates via adb it asks to sideload files. That's the one way i can get the device to register . Abd even send files to the device. It's just that they don't install as it says updates from external sources is disabled. I feel you are correct tho, about Odin mode, i can put the phone in download mode but it just doesn't register on the otg apps, maybe because it must be Odin. So yeah i gotta find a way to run Odin on Android. Listen they do have a version of Odin that runs on Android , called mobile Odin...but i think it only flashes to the device that it's on....not to other devices....

Yes, it's a two-way road, while your Samsung is waiting a file to be transferred you have to put in somewhere in the other device adb sideload packagename.zip this is how ADB sideload works, in Windows you open a CMD through ADB/fastboot and send a package.zip to the device so your Samsung device accepts this package.zip plus as I said you previously it has to be an official update something like an OTA firmware. Resuming, you are sending nothing to the device.

No, your Motorola device is not capable to detect device just with OTG support, you need the binaries to run on it either for ADB or fastboot or download mode.

Odin for Android, the paid version worked same way that Odin through PC sending device to download mode and then applying an update, but it is deprecated as per I know.
Your only way by now would be trying to get ADB working correctly on your Motorola through a terminal or running a simpler distro like Ubuntu that can boot on Android, sometime ago I boot some of them from Play Store, but I didn't try so much.

Yes, it's a two-way road, while your Samsung is waiting a file to be transferred you have to put in somewhere in the other device adb sideload packagename.zip this is how ADB sideload works, in Windows you open a CMD through ADB/fastboot and send a package.zip to the device so your Samsung device accepts this package.zip plus as I said you previously it has to be an official update something like an OTA firmware. Resuming, you are sending nothing to the device.
No, your Motorola device is not capable to detect device just with OTG support, you need the binaries to run on it either for ADB or fastboot or download mode.
Odin for Android, the paid version worked same way that Odin through PC sending device to download mode and then applying an update, but it is deprecated as per I know.
Your only way by now would be trying to get ADB working correctly on your Motorola through a terminal or running a simpler distro like Ubuntu that can boot on Android, sometime ago I boot some of them from Play Store, but I didn't try so much.

Ok, thanks so much,I'm about to download mobile Odin first , altho i think i tried that and it needed SuperSU permissions which the moto E5 isn't rooted...so looks like I'm about to research your other suggestions. It gives me a direction to experiment in. Again,thanks so much. Oh one last thing.. but it is sending files to the phone in sideload form. Because before it aborts, the phone I'm sending files from goes through a percentage until 100% of any given file is sent. And on the galaxy i see it received because it says installing this or that zip file before saying...updates fron external sources disabled and aborting mission. I'll be back. Thanks for the time bro
