[Q] unroot??

is it possibile to unroot the epic eb13 without having to use the cable/ odin / or anything computer related?
my phone is not working with odin or anything if i plug the usb in, but i am able to move stuff to and from my SD card by just putting the SD card in the computer.
took to sprint to try and get it repaired BUT cause they saw i was rooted they said they cant help me because i am rooted.
by the way i have tried VARIOUS methods of trying to get the usb to work by using 4 different usb cables. uninstall and install the drivers. different usb slots in the computer.
all keep showing
"USB device not recognized"

I had this problem when I was getting ready to upgrade from rooted DK18 to EB13. I wanted to backup my stuff first but the usb wouldn't recognize mass storage. I think I may have broke something when I started removing apk's and disabled touchwiz in favor of launcher pro. The phone worked fine but mass storage was not available. When I installed the Epic drivers on my laptop and connected my phone, the mass storage still wasn't recognized but Odin did see a connection.
If Odin still sees your connection on a different pc (disregard the windows error), then flash whatever firmware you need and all should be well.
Let me know if this helps.
PS....Don't forget to disconnect and reconnect your phone at least twice after installing drivers on a new pc. It takes at least 2 reconnects to install the drivers correctly...at least thats always been my experience.

im getting nothing in odin =/

Yes, but have you tried connecting to a different pc. I had the exact same issue on my desktop pc and then I tried on my laptop. For some unknown reason Odin worked fine (but still no mass storage).
At first I thought there was something wrong with my desktop's usb ports but after I flashed back to stock, suddenly mass storage was available on both my laptop and the original pc. Don't ask me why, it just worked.

Doesn't doing a hard reset make you lose ur root?

Win Error 43.. frustrated.

I've read through so many threads on so many forums trying to fix this, and I'm about to throw this thing through the wall.
I'm running CyanogenMod 7 nightly on 2.3.7
When I connect the phone to any PC (I've tried Win7 64/32 bit, XP SP3, XP SP2) I get a charging icon in my notification bar, but the USB Storage mode never opens to enable/disable. After about 10 seconds I see "USB Device Not Recognized." Happens the same on every PC. I can still access my internal storage via FTP, just not via USB. The device shows in my device manager as "Unknown USB Device."
Not sure if it's related, but when I boot into FastBoot it runs USB Control/USB Control init and then just freezes. Even after downloading a ROM update with ROM Manager it says "NO ROM FOUND"
This is what I've tried:
USBDeview to uninstall all Android-related drivers, reinstalled Samsung and Google SDK rev 4 drivers.
USB data wipe (for the hell of it, really.)
Multiple PC's with different OS and 3 different USB data cables, including the original.
At this point I'd like to try a factory reset. When I try to unroot with SuperOneClick the program just crashes. When I try a reset from the phone it fails to boot into recovery, and using the Factory data reset produces a "null" error.
I know just enough to be dangerous. If I'm missing something please let me know, and I appreciate any help.

Tried loading a CM9 rom from the SD card that I FTP'd over via ClockworkMod Recovery. It asks for data+cache wipe, then just boots into recovery. I get "NO IMG FOUND" and USB CONTROL INIT and USB CONTROL INIT END.

Try installing pdanet on your computer. Its what I did in order for my computer to recognize my phone. Hope it helps.

Should have mentioned earlier that I also installed PDANet after I wiped my drivers. It couldn't detect the phone being connected and did not completely install.

Can't get Pc or mac to recognize N7

Can't get a Pc to recognize my N7, I have installed the correct drivers and was able to access as a mass storage before I began rooting / bootloader work. Whenever I try now I get the noise that something is connected via the USB port but that's it from a computer standpoint. The tablet says it is connected as a media device. I've tried reinstalling the drivers and doing a factory wipe and still no luck. Same issue on mac. any responses are greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Nexus 7 with no OS and no adb connectivity. Sideload doesnt load.

I need some help guys.
My Nexus 7 all of a sudden stopped sending data through usb OTG and i tried to erase cache through TRWP but ended up deleting the OS. Now I am stuck with a device with no OS. I cannot mount the USB for my computer to recognise it so that I can restore it. I tried ADB sideload but it doesnt load and gets stuck on starting...
If I click on Mount, I cannot click on the USB-OTG box. My computer does have the correct drivers for the USB as it used to work on it before but since the OTG stopped responding to data I am now stuck and cannot push a restore image to the device.
Any help would really be appreciated.
Many thanks.

I've tried almost everything I can think off. I tried different OTG cables, different computers. None of the computers even detect a device as plugged in. Whether I boot into bootloader or recovery I just cannot get the PC to even acknowledge the fact that something is plugged in. As a result I am just not able to flash it at all. I tried NRT with the soft-brick option but that fails too because it says no adb connectivity.
any help please?

Nexus 6p stuck in twrp with no os and no connection to pc

i made the boneheaded mistake of deleting everything off my phone in twrp (3.2.1-0) and ive had little success in trying to recover it.
1. my pc will not recognize it when its plugged in, this was also an issue when it had an os on it. ive tried to install the google usb drivers as well as the hisuite drivers with no success
2. i bought a usb otg adapter so i could possibly push the new os through there but when ever i try i get 0mb when trying to select the storage in the mount section of twrp. ive also tried reformatting the usb multiple times but that didnt work either.
3. there is no connectivity while in fastboot as well as adb
I'm caught in a tight situation and don't have the means to buy a new phone if anyone could help me out i would greatly appreciate it

Powerdown your phone and boot to bootloader by pressing powerkey and holding vol- then connect to your computer you should see the Nexus 6p on your pc and. from your computer download any rom of your like,gapps,root optional and copy it to your internal storage. Then just flash.

that doesnt work either. i have all of the appropriate drivers and still nothing.

That could be your pc. Try a different port or even better another pc.
