Almost 8 out of 10 times I unplug the usb cord from my phone after connecting thru ActiveSync, my phone locks up on the screen it was on while connected to my computer. It shows "Connect to PC" at the top. The only way to have this fixed, is to take out the battery each time, or go to another phone and call my cell to have it leave that screen. Is there a process to disconnect with the USB? Are people going to the USB icon and right clicking "Safely Remove Hardware" when finished syncing their phone to avoid this? Thanks if you can share your experience.
If i got ur problem correctly, you can either tap on "Connect to PC" and see if that will encourage it to move on. Or when in doubt, always hit the Close button, hit it again and the unlock slider should appear wihch should solve the problem.
Ok guys, this is pissing me off... I'm not even kidding. I've sworn at my computer for like 5 minutes now. Whenever my phone is plugged in, Windows constantly makes the Unmount/Mounting sound. No matter what I do, it doesn't stop, aside from unplugging the phone. WTF. Has this happened to anyone else? It's annoying the $hit out of me.

Only happens for me when first plugging in the phone, rebooting phone while it's plugged into the computer, or unplugging the phone from the computer.
Settings > Applications > Development > USB Debugging
Disable that.
and then superuser apps don't work. I have debugging on and don't get that. I think you have a bad cable. Try another one.
Whenever I plug my Vibrant in my computer makes the usb sound to let you know it's connected. However when I go to check the removable hardware, the Drive "I" that showed up when I plugged my phone in says "please insert etc..etc"
I'm trying to transfer movies and songs on the internal instead of the tiny 2gb card.
Oh yeah, and when I check on device manager, it shows Samsung SGH on there...
I'm confused, can somebody please help
Try and put the phone in download mode, both up and down volume buttons and power button, hold both until vibrant screen flashes twice then let go as soon as second vibrant screen appears. Plug USB into phone while phone is in recovery mode, it should automatically install correct drivers while in this mode.
mine did this yesterday. WOuld show connected on my phone, id click mount, but nothing happened. So I restarted phone and computer. All is well now..
Go to Settings > About Phone > USB Settings > and turn on Mass Storage.
Is there a way to prevent the Vibrant from unmounting the storage every time I plug in a USB cable? I don't need to transfer files from my power plug, and when I want to charge my phone from my computer, it stops my media player/everything else until I go turn the USB connection off. Super annoying.

There is a few different options, you can try each to see which works the best for you. Probably Ask each time would stop any automatic stuff from happening,. But its up to you.
That's what it's on, and it still does it.
AHA! It's not the droid system at all, it's DoubleTwist.

The application Winamp Beta has the same way to solve this problem.
I have i5801 with android 2.1.
I had plugged in the phone to PC using the USB connector.
Had a power outage and pc got restarted.
Since then, something strange is happening on my phone. It keeps on displaying "USB Connected" on the top of screen, even when i have plugged out the phone from PC.
Not only this, i have restarted phoen multiple times and removed/inserted battery, it still keeps on showing USB connected at regular intervals (every 2 seconds) even though it is not connected , and phone switches off automatically!
Does anyone know the solution to this?
Try a factory reset and if it doesn't work try flashing another rom.
Sent from my GT-I5800 using XDA App

u have a big problem in hand
when u said that ur pc got restarted then it must have burnt the IC that controls the USB connection.
this IC is generally found attached. if it had burnt that u can recharge ur battery but u wnt be able to use any other PC connectivity functions.
sorry to say this but there is no way to fix this xcept giving it for servicing.
but bfore u give it u can dissemble it and have a look at the IC.
if it is burnt u will knw when u see it. no biggie
try this link to dissemble
