So I'm on an AT&T Dell Streak running Froyo. Everytime I connect my phone to my computer, it says "USB Device Not Recognized". I have installed dell sync drivers and the nero program. I can only sync over wi-fi, which means that I'm at a standstill as far as changing roms. Please help.
Could be your PC hasn't installed the correct drivers maybe?
Have a look on this thread, It's a guide to rooting/flashing the streak BUT it has a guide on getting the correct drivers on your PC, have a look at that and see if it helps.

Hello Guys...GretoVerno here fellow Samsung Galaxy S Vibrant Owner...
I have this phone and everytime i connect it to usb i Get the Message
"USB Device Not Recognized" error message...I have installed all the drivers i could possible find on the internet and the error still pops up...i ahve tried using the phone in USB Debugging mode to no avail what so ever...
Someone Please help if there's a genius out there...I really love this phone
Uninstall the Samsung drivers off your computer. Then reinstall make sure that have the correct version windows 32 bit or 64 bit for the correct operating format. Make sure you give admin rights to it. you can find these drivers in the Noob bible by S15274N in the Gen section. I am assuming there is not a problem with your phone. If you have a friend, check it on their computer, that's an easy way to rule out phone issues. That should resolve what ever problem you have.
There ia another way to check, that is have a friend with odin (or you) and see if Odin recognizes, if it does, then you got it solved or at the very least Odin back to stock and reinstall a new rom, this will solve all these issues as well.
Hope you get it, good luck
Had an issue with my brother in laws comp not recognizing his vibrant. Took an hour or two to get his phone recognized. I think we ended up using the drivers from pdanet instead of the official danny drivers. First try getting your phone to work on another comp. Will help narrow down the issue by 50%

Windows cannot recognize my vibrant!
Hopefully someone can help me out as I am having the
same problem with my computer not recognizing my phone.
The thing is that I am already running Froyo stock 2.2
and at the time I was able to update it to 2.2 my
computer recognized my phone without a problem. I have
been reading the forums for a while now and the only
time anyone had this problem was when they first bought
the phone when it was released but here is my problem.
After updating Kies mini and installing the official
Samsung drivers from the Samsung website I plug in the
phone and i get the error that windows does not
recognize the device. I have tried this on Windows Xp
and Windows 7 on 2 different laptops and got the same
error everytime. So what I did was while on Windows Xp I
uninstalled the unknown driver and I kept plugging and
unplugging the phone and uninstalling the unknown driver
until I got my computer to finally recognize my phone.
Once my computer recognized my phone I Then started
downloading the recent update, when the download was
done as soon as my phone went into download mode my
computer kicked out my phone and gave me the error that
windows does not recognize the device and at that time
Kies mini gave me the emergency recovery notice which I
didnt have to use because the phone booted fine without
fail.
You should also know that prior to the recent
update from tmobile for minor bug fixes I tried to root
my vibrant using the superoneclick root program. Upon
doing this after fighting with my vibrant and my laptop
to communicate with each other my computer recognized
the phone and I attempted to root. Then I got the
looping message and at that time windows did not
recognize my device which then messed up my modem and I
had to do a system restore. So after weeks of fustration
trying to root and now not able to downlaod the recent
update I am now asking for your help as XDA has been
there for us all. I have tried samsung drivers, kies mini
drivers and pdanet drivers and get the same windows
doesn't recognize my device everytime. Does anyone have
any ideas as what I can do to get my computer to
recognize my phone as I can not do anything until my
computer and my vibrant get along. Your help is greatly
appreciated XDA thanks for all that you do!
do you guys have Samsung kies installd??

You know that's the only thing that I haven't tried should I pick one up from T-Mobile or were should I get one?
I am getting the same error and i tried a buddy's cord and it still did the same thing. Not really sure what happened. My phone was working fine just a few days ago. I am wondering if it has anything to do with the large amount of Windows Updates that just happened.
Try uninstalling your drivers and install these. I had the same problem and then I used this and it has worked on every computer. Heck even worked when I hooked up my SGS2

I had the same issue. It is a phone problem and I had to get a warranty replacement. No combo of cables or drivers would fix mine.
Well after uninstalling and reinstalling, trying new drivers, restarting countless number of times, troubleshooting through the device manager, I had the genius idea to restart my phone in a last ditch effort before i gave up and it worked.
Now i feel somewhat like a dodo. Rule #1 - Restart

Have you rebooted since you installed the drivers?
Well I tried those drivers from that link you provided and no dice. Im going to pick up a new usb cord from Tmobile tomorrow and see if that might be the problem. I can always use a 2nd cord for charging I guess.

That would be the logical next step.. just to verify, you have restarted the phone and computer since installing the drivers right? If you have then its most likely the cord. Its weird these cords seem to have been giving me problems more than any previously owned ones ie regular usb or even my amp cord which I step on and rip out the amp more than i'd like to admit

Makes sure that when you uninstall your drivers to restart your PC then reinstall and give a shot. Of course, also make sure you are using the right 64x or 86x driver.

hey guys,
I don't know if this still a problem with people. but I'm on win7 64bit and I can't seem to connect my nexus s, to my computer. I always have to upload from computer to dropbox then download the file from DB on my phone... usb plug doesn't work. I tried the same cable with my wifes Samsung vibrant and it recognizes it, but when i plug in my nexus s the debug icon shows up on my phones status bar for like 1 second and disappears. then window on my compter says "USB Device Not Recognized"
need help please.
What does it say in device manager (in windows)? Maybe the driver is wrong...

do u have a right drivers installed
have a look here and check Google USB Driver
I'm having the same problem. I have tried both my computers and multiple cables but I continue to get the error. When I try to update the drivers or reinstall them Windows says the drivers are up to date. I've tried every USB port on both computers as well.
I even took the phone into a repair place to see if perhaps the USB port on the phone was malfunctioning and they couldn't find anything wrong with it.

Try installing pdanet, I had a similar issue when I rooted my ns and installing the pdanet drivers solved the problem.

I've been having the problem also and none of the fixes worked. Not even PDA net. You'd think that the more people have this problem so one would have found a real fix by now.

I can't get the PDAnet drivers to install - during the installation process, my phone has to plugged in, which of course the installation program can't see.
Weird thing is if I remove the battery and then plug the usb in and start the phone, the drivers show up in the device manager but they always disappear before I can unlock the phone - appears the USB connection on my Nexus S is broken...can;t think of anything else.
I am running the 12/09 version of jt's ICS. Trying to hook up my phone to use cdma workshop, but it can't find my phone. Odin will detect it in download mode, but from my understanding when you use cdma workshop the phone needs to be turned on? I have usb debugging enabled already so thats not it. I read somewhere about putting the phone in dialup mode, but in ICS I don't see an option for that?
Any ideas?
R u on XP? My comp. doesnt recognize my phone on XP but on Win7 it surely does.
I've on Windows 7.

Follow droidstyle's guide for installing mtd roms, and install the nexus drivers so that your pc recognizes your phone. He has the link for the drivers
"the relentless pursuit of the perfect rom"
Not doin it for me. I need to know how to get ICS into diag mode. So it's recognized as a com port.
Hi guys sorry to post this but I've looked in over 5 threads and still no answer. My phone was working well just a couple of days ago. I was able to sync music and picture via Zune. But now Zune doesn't detect my phone. I tried going to device manager and updating the drivers as posted in other threads. But my phone doesn't show up anywhere. Not by Zune or device manager. HELP!!!! I went as far as having to reset my computer to factory settings and still no luck... Any suggestions?
which windows you have?
if you have XP you must reinstall ActiveSync
if you have Vista/Win7 you must reinstall WMDC
I have vista and I've already reinstalled WMDC
does your phone charge when you plug it in?
Is the cable OK ? Try it on another PC . Even without drivers installed it should charge
Yes it charges and everything it's just undetectable... i was however able to flash Ice Cream Sandwich, and the same problem occurs. The phone doesn't show up the its plugged up to a computer it just charges. No switch to USB or USB debugging option. Just charging. Could this be that maybe some of the internal hardware is damaged?
is always possible hardware malfunction but in almost all case problem is in windows drivers in ActiveSync/WMDC)
What i would do is to re install Zune and see if the phone is detected.
(Completely uninstall your current Zune and drivers first)
If that doesn't work i'd go back to a stock WM6.5 ROM and WMDC
Good luck
I've recently experienced the behavior you've mentioned, with both an HD2 and an HD7. I had look at the device manager, and it turned out the phone drivers did not load properly (error code 31).
I would advise you to update the phone drivers (which you can find within the portable devices section) and let windows search automatically for the most appropriate drivers.
For your reference, you should have a look at the following KB: support.microsoft .com/kb/2410180

You may have to install HTC Sync.
Ok so I think I've searched well enough to conclude no one has my particular problem. When I plug in my A500 into my computer that has windows 7 windows recognizes that something was plugged in but not what it is. It says USB device not recognized, unknown device, and so on. I've tried installing the drivers from the acer website, I've tried installing the drivers from the link in the ics rooting thread, I've tried using the google android drivers and none have worked. I've even tried reinstalling windows but that had nothing to do with this it was a different thing that made me do it. Nothing has worked and I've become a bit frustrated with the tablet. Any suggestions on what to do?
Thanks

Moborobo, download the program and try it. to me has run many android devices. sorry for my English
Your computer isn't detecting it at all, or is there an error while trying to identify it? Make sure you have the proper drivers for your device on your computer.
It's an error identifying it. I do have the correct drivers the a500 drivers from either the rooting guide or the Acer website neither has worked.
Moborobo does not work with the a500. I tried it and it still says to connect my device. which it is but it's just unrecognized.
If you have installed the driver correctly, AND you had administrator rights when you installed, should be no reason why you can't get the PC to recognize the device.
First, I would advise using a good USB cable. It's been known in the past, that some folks try to use a printer cable, and sometimes it doesn't work. If changing cables doesn't work, then do the following
1. In Device Manager, try loading the drivers manually. You should be able to have it search the windows system for the drivers. If it doesn't find it, then windows is being stupid. Try installing it manually (ignore the warning it may not be compatible,.....)
2. If that doesn't work, then you can use the Google USB drivers
http://www.redmondpie.com/android-u...r-samsung-htc-asus-sony-lg-and-other-devices/
Generally, we install the Android SDK first;
http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
And again, have Device manager look to that directory and manually select.
Either way, this should get you up and running.
And one more thing, turn on USB Debugging in your tablet's system properties.
MD
I've tried that. Didn't seem to work as windows would still not recognize the a500. And the usb debugging has been on since the beginning.
Okay i've gotten windows to the point of being able to install the drivers from the device manager but there is no clear option to choose. Here are the choices:
acer android communications port
acer android modem
acer hs-usb android diag
acer hs-usb diagnostics
acer composite adb interface
acer fastboot interface
acer picasso usb boot-recovery driver (google driver)
android bootloader interface (google driver)
So any suggestions cause I've tried installing the adb interface, fastboot interface and the android bootloader interface and haven't gotten any good results.
Thanks
Did you try a second PC? Sometimes a machine can get wonky if you've been using for years. Using a second machine or reinstalling Windows freshly would greatly increase the chances of detection.
Yep tried about 3 machines.

I'm having the same issue with a bricked A500 I bought on ebay
Windows just recognizes it as an MTP USB device and fails to install the drivers
I have another A500 that comes up fine as an A500 on the same PC.
Try disabling the USB debugging in developer options I have the same issue with my Win 7 x64 system
