I cannot get my epic to mount for ANYTHING! I factory wiped the phone, nope, I used a palm pre usb cable nope, I downloaded the official samsung drivers nope, I plugged the cable into the motherboard on the computer nope, I tried a different computer running windows 7, nope tried a laptop using windows vista, nope. Does anyone know ANY WAY POSSIBLE to get this thing to mount? I selected mass storage and dissabled and enabled usb debugging. Im just not having any luck. It seems that the computer recognizes the phone is connected just cant get to the files on the SD card.
I also spent many hours trying to figure out what the hell was wrong with my Epic, that is, why it would come up as a "malfunction" in Windows when I plugged the USB cable in.
I tried drivers, different restore points, wiping, etc. etc. etc.
To the point... Try a new USB cable. The one packaged with the Epic is junk. As a matter of fact, it worked several times before it crapped out. I have no idea why, but I picked up a new micro USB cable, plugged it in, and the phone was then immediately recognized by my computer to allow mass storage mount.
People who tried the Palm Pre USB cable also had issues for some reason.
IMO, there should be a sticky posted in this board regarding the packaged USB cable, as I encounter this issue quite a bit.
Ok I'll try to find a new one really quick thanks
ugh tried an HTC Mytouch 4g usb cable and that didnt work either. Gonna try a class 4 usb stick and im gonna try puttting all of the files on the computer from the SD card
Edit: Oh wow i cant put the files on the computer duh
Edit: Ok now I'm mad a Class 4 SD card wont connect to the computer thru the epic ughhhh
I'm guessing during this time, you've rebooted the computer a few times? Sometimes, that's all it takes...
Try uninstalling ALL of the USB drivers associated with the Epic, rebooting the computer, then connecting (with debug mode OFF). Windows found and installed the USB drivers for me in just a few seconds when I did this [with the new cable, the first time].
- G
Have u enabled development mode under settings > applications (in your) epic? If not, try that, then plug in cable.
Then pull down the notification bar and it'll give you back the option.. again, if you haven't tried this.
On occasion I have troubles with the Epic mounting/ejecting on a Mac, but the only time I've ever had an issue with it mounting on a PC a different cable solved the problem immediately.
Try a different USB port on your PC. If that doesn't work, try rebooting the PC and the phone.
I had luck with trying different usb ports though
I had this problem as well and:
1. Tried 4 different cables
2. Tried all 4 on all 4 different USB ports
3. Rebooted numerous times
4. Uninstalled/reinstalled drivers
5. Tried 3 different PCs (1 other running 7 and another running Vista)
6. Did 1-4 on all three computers.
OH! and the reason I was so adamant about finding a solution was that I was stuck in Clockwork... due to having messed up an EXT4/RFS/CW2.5/CW3.0 installation... It was MY fault... I screwed up.
The problem was I had been living with the nonmounting problem by simply putting my MicroSD into an adapter and plugging it into my Laptop for file transfers... never expecting to HAVE to ODIN at some time...
Anyway... I ended up coughing up the $100 to Insurance and replacing the phone.
HERE IS MY THEORY: I think what my problem was was that the USB port on the Phone was messed up. I think these USB ports are possibly a hardware fail point and the changing of cables has been a patch on the issue with the port... NOT the cables themselves!
I'm not suggesting that you are there yet since it sounds like you can at least still get the phone to boot up (and aren't stuck in CW) and could still use a work around of putting files on the MicroSD with an adapter...
But I would suggest you don't be as stupid as me and get yourself in a position where ODIN is your only hope.
Yeah, it sounded like a bad USB port to me. Also, FYIY, if you ever have to replace the phone through insurance, tell them that the phone was lost. Either way, it will cost you $100.00 to get a replacement and when it's reported as lost, they will also send you a new battery...

You don't really think that I sent in a phone that was stuck in CW do you? I don't think that would have worked too well for me.....

Has anyone tried to use a micro/full size usb male/female cable with the fire. I know it works with the xoom but how about the fire?
http://www.amazon.com/USB-Micro-Female-Male-Adaptor/dp/B0023FTRUO
No I can't say that I have, but this is very interesting indeed!
What would be the benefits? I'm technologically inept sometimes, but I am assuming you might be able to expand it's memory?
This has been tried. As far as I know, we are not aware whether or not the hardware supports this (usb to go) but we are sure the stock kindle kernal does not. A rom or kernal in the future may remedy this eventually, but as of now usb is only for pc to kindle data transfer and charging.
Edit: You asked about the benefits, I didn't mention them. You might be able to use card readers, flash frives, cd rom drives, bluetooth dongles, anything you can imagine (given the drivers). Sometimes you need a powered hub, depending on the device being plugged in. I wouldn't hold your breathe on getting this on the kindle. It seems unlikely to me, but some brilliant dev may work a miracle!

That is exactly what Kapurnicus tried to cover. The full size USB end is female so you can plug in USB cables that are normally meant to be used with a desktop or laptop. I just bought a similar adapter for my Nook Color and I will use it to pull photos directly from my camera, which will be especially useful on trips without a laptop for viewing and uploading. Being able to carry a really large music, movie and tv library on an external hard drive and switch out what I have on my tablet would be cool, but I don't really have that need. Keyboard and/or mouse could come in handy for some people. Lots of things can be done

Host mode support is not part of the stock kernel or any of the custom kernels yet, and it won't work until developers can get those parts configured and debugged to work with the Kindle.
Hi guys!
I've had a problem over the day with my beloved HD2, and I've started to fear that it might actually be the hardware starting to decay. About a day or two ago, when inserting my phone to the MicroUSB cable, it recognized the HD2 just fine, had access too USB mount, ADB and all of that. Transfered some music to the SD-card (Trancent 16gigs Class 4, btw - still very well recognized by the phone to the time at writing this), but now, some time later I get nothing out of connecting the phone to either my laptop or rig.
I know it's not the drivers or the cable, since I've tried with others cables and a few other computers. The message is the same old "The device could not be recognized". But the funny thing is, somehow the device must know that its connected to a computer anyway, 'cause it instantly enables debugging and the option to enable mount. I, as of now, has had no luck getting into the SD card, sadly. Not even been able to pull logcats or anything, setting up wireless ADB hasn't been sucessful either - so where I stand now, I'm kinda in need for a helping hand.
Has anyone else ever had this problem too, or am I left out in the cold?
By the way, even managed to put on an older nightly CM9 build, as it was stored on my SD. No luck there either. MAGLDR mount / recovery mount doesn't function either. Same error.
The ROM I first had the problem on was PARANOIDANDROID v0.6. Then a nightly CM9 from sometime last week. Both immensely close to stock and ICS based. LEO512, by the way.
Please, give me a hand!
TL;DR: USB broken, still charging, help.
Your usb is getting loose (usb data connection becomes irratic and then stops working, continued use results in USB port ripped from mainboard), try to not use it while plugged in and see if the repair shop can fix it for you without breaking usb data. You can use the SwiFTP app in playstore to transfer files in the mean time.
You may also want to use a cradle charger to minimize USB port being used.
Hi everyone,
My Nexus 7 at present isn't getting recognised when connected to a PC via USB. This was working the other week (the drivers were installed the first time I connected it via USB), but now when I connect it to a PC via USB the device isn't recognised by the PC.
I have tried this on multiple PC's and the same thing happens on all of them, so it must be something with the Nexus 7 that is causing the problem.
If I go into Device Manager on any of the PC's, with the Nexus 7 connected via USB it doesn't appear anywhere, so I can't go down the route of even updating the USB drivers as suggested for some similar issues on other threads.
I have even installed the Android SDK and installed the Windows USB driver package, but that hasn't done the trick either.
I have also tried installing the Microsoft MTP porting kit, but again this made no difference and the same can be said by switching between MTP and PTP mode and neither have made a difference. I don't have USB debugging enabled, enabling it doesn't make a difference either.
I can connect my Nexus S phone via USB without issue to any of the PC's I've tested the Nexus 7 on, which further backs my thinking of the issue being with the Nexus 7.
I'm running out of ideas, so thought I would throw it out there to see if anyone has any other suggestions before I do a factory reset on the Nexus 7.
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Further to this I have done a factory reset, which has made no difference.
Any ideas other than going back to Google or Asus?
my N7 has trouble being recognized by different PCs. it is hit and miss. will your N7 charge when it's connected to a PC that doesn't recognize it? my N7 does not show the charging symbol on screen, but the battery percentage increases over time.
Also try a different cable just in case.

Try connecting it as a PTP device rather than MTP.. (that sometimes works for me when I am trying to force it to pick up the ADB device and install driver etc). If it detects it as PTP change it back (to MTP), and hopefully it will be OK.

I had already tried that, makes no difference unfortunately.
I had the same problem.
I knew it was driver issue but where to find the driver?? Looked on Asus' site and apparently the Nexus 7 is the Asus unwanted step-child. Not a mention of it there.
After a lot of looking and a lot of cursing,I found the answer! (It was the cursing that helped!) Install Windows Media Player v13. The needed driver is included. After a reboot, I was able to see the Nexus 7 on my PC and (more importantly) able to transfer files to it!
What happened
I have had the same problem with it not connecting. My n7 does charge when I plug it in but does not show up in my computer when i plug it in via usb. I have tried switching it to PTP mode but it does not find the device for what I'm doing(unlocking boot loader for my nexus 7) I hope someone can help greatly appreciated.

USB Connection To PC Not Detected
Having the same issue here. These two guys as well http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1851868&highlight=usb+connected Did you also use a car charger? Don't know when it happened for me, but sometime between it last working and testing car chargers it stopped working. Same thing for me as one of the posters says, USB-OTG works, so I would think it's not a physical issue, but how to reset it. Dunno, Any help would be appreciated.
ADB, Fastboot, or USB Connected device in Windows does not work. Computer doesn't even detect, no USB connect sound.
UPDATE:
Installed Glazed Jellybean v.1.1.2 thinking it might clearup the issues with detection of USB and presenting it to the PC. Still same results, USB data connectivity is missing somehow. Just might be some sort of physical damage. Kernel was updated as well to Linaro Motley Kernel v1.1.1.
Help!
I had this happen after using a car charger from amazon. I actually really believe that the charger is the problem, as I had originally got the charger for my recently departed tf101, and after using the charger on that, same problem as what's happening with my n7. Sure, there's workarounds, but it'd be nice to connect to pc for faster transfers.

Same As Above... This sucks.
I am having the exact same problems listed previously & I've tried almost all the same fix attempts with no luck. Like a couple others, mine worked out of the box, then I charged it in my car (using the Nexus 7 cable plugged in to a USB cigarette lighter adapter)... Now, nothing but the indication on the Nexus that it's charging. No indication at all that the computer is even aware a device is plugged in to it. Has anyone found anything? Please, Lord, say it's so!!
I found a fix
Whether this will work for everyone I am not sure.
I took the USB from the hub I was using & plugged it into one of the front ports on the actual tower unit. The drivers were reinstalled and everything is working again.
It may be the Nexus didn't like the hub or it may be that particular USB port threw a wobbler.

Thanks, but I've plugged my N7 in to 15+ usb ports on 3 different PCs & haven't gotten anywhere. No changes.
I did call ASUS support yesterday & was told by the tech support person that they were working on a "PC SYNC" software for the N7, but did not have a release date for it yet. I'm not very optimistic. The tech sounded like she could have been reading from a script. Didn't sound as if she knew what she was talking about. I may take my N7 back & get a replacement.

Hey, do you remember what charger you used? I tried two from Amazon, so I can't tell which one gave me the problems. Here they are:
Arcadia Rapiduo, 10W 5V/2A Dual Port high-speed USB car charger w/ Free Full Speed Micro-USB Charging Cable (IMP80C)
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00845NI8E/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i01
and
PowerGen Dual USB Port 2A 10w (fast) Heavy Duty Ouput Car Charger - White
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00622AG6S/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00
Hell, if there are several of us that have damaged devices from these chargers maybe Amazon would help us to get our Nexus replaced.

It was this one at first, then I complained it didn't work, and they sent one that could've come from their own car, the way it looked.
And yes, I know it says "for Asus tf101".
Perhaps there's a "safety switch" of some sort, written into the os, that "shuts down" the ability to communicate through usb after using these car chargers? That may sound stupid, i know.
I don't think it's a pc problem, since the n7 still charges when connected, and also, because this has happened twice to me, with both my tf101 and my n7,directly after using these car chargers.
And, for some reason, I don't believe it has caused hardware damage to the n7. I kind of believe what I said in the first paragraph. Maybe this will happen to a dev, and they will look into the problem.
I suppose rma is an option, but patience is not my strong point.

I have 3 computers and 2 Nexus 7 in household, and one N7 has no problem being recognized by computers and the second N7 wont connect as a MTP device at all, on any computer, with many different cable and port combos. The second N7 was bought just a few days ago and I was not going to root and leave a virgin device, so it was essential to have access to sdcard with computer as storage device. Looks like I am taking it back for replacement...which is a shame because other than usb problem the second N7 was a perfect C70...my first N7 C70 has a minor screen lift, and after comparing the two tabs side by side, a slightly more washed out display.

This was my thoughts as well, thought some of the system files were altered in someway by either that process or my installing usb related apps. USB OTG and USB monitoring apps specifically. However, I decided to try an load Glazed Jelly Bean hoping it would resolve this issue by rewriting the system files, but it was still broken. This has now changed from a connectivity issue to a totally dead unit for me, it slowly started refusing to give a full charge and now not even a response while plugged into an AC Charger.

I'm pretty stumped with this one so I'm throwing it out there to see if you lot have any ideas.
I have a Nexus 6p that can charge, however it is not recognized whatsoever by the computer. No notification sound when I plug it in (it just starts charging).
When in bootloader it says "connect usb data cable", and there are no adb devices found.
I tried reinstalling drivers a bunch of times to no avail, and tried on another computer.
Fairly confident, I ordered a new USB board. I've now swapped it out, and plugged it back in to the computer, and low and behold the issue is still the same.
I'm guessing there is something wrong on the motherboard. Any ideas? Did I miss something obvious?
EDIT: I've tried multiple cables, and usb ports. ADB works fine with my nexus 5x.
what OS are you running on your computer?
what version of android?
when you plug it in, do you get any options to choose from on the notification shade? (is USB debugging turned on in developer options?)
I am having the exact same issue. I am trying to back everything up before installing Nougat but I cant get the phone to be recognized by the PC. I get the pop up in the notification bar and can select from charging, MTP, PTP, etc, but I can not see anything on the computer. Absolutely nothing shows up in device manager.
I have tried reinstalling drivers and going through all steps on Wug's toolkit but nothing works. I can however connect to my wife's laptop with no issue, so it is not the phone. I installed all drivers and used my PC to root originally, so there has to be something that happened since February. Both PCs are running windows 10 and I tried my phone on both Pure Nexus 6.0.1 and an old stock 6.0.0 backup and have the exact same issue.
I have Googled around and cant really find any answers. I am pretty sure it is something in Windows that can likely be fixed with a reinstall, but that is something I really dont want/have time to do because I have a ton of programs and games setup on 3 seperate drives that would take quite a while to reinstall. I am really hoping someone has been able to solve this problem in the past.
Good luck. I will be steadily trying to get mine to work and I will post back if I make any progress at all. I will also be watching this thread to see if anyone has suggestions.
I just got mine working. What I ended up having to do was update the firmware for my Asmedia USB 3.1 controller. I did that and plugged my phone in and it worked perfectly. Look on your motherboard/PC manufacturer's website and see if there is any firmware or drivers that pertain to USB that can be updated. Good luck, I really hope you figure it out because I know it annoyed the hell out of me.

Pretty sure drivers are fine. I can ADB into other phones no problem. I have also tried on another computer and the issue is the same.
I have the exact same issue as OP. Everyone keeps saying it's a Windows driver issue, but how can it be when Windows doesn't even detect a USB device being plugged in?
---------- Post added at 12:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:49 AM ----------
I noticed something and wanted to see if you have the same issue. In the Battery settings menu, when you plug your phone into the USB port, does it say Charging over USB and then switch to Charging on AC 5 seconds later? My Nexus 4 always stays as Charging over USB so I think there is something to this.
Are you connecting via USB-C to USB A (USB 2.0)? Some older computers cannot handle it without a proper driver update. Try using a USB-C to micro USB adapter

I can understand why people will be quick to suggest that given that 9/10 cases are this issue. However as I already stated, I've tried multiple cables, ports, drivers, computers, phones. And other phones work fine, just not this 1 device. So as far as I'm concerned, there is almost certainly nothing wrong on the computer side.

The issue was around for a long while before I did a bad flash. Now I need to connect via bootloader to reflash recovery and install a working system; so I'm forced to address this problem now.

Good luck. I'm at the point where I need to send my device to Huawei. I hope the warranty can cover this bad USB issue.
Huawei wanted to charge me almost $300usd because I unlocked my bootloader.

Oh wow. Mine came with an unlocked bootloader. They didn't say anything about charging me $300. Geez, I hope this isn't the case.

Normally when you unlock your bootloader you void your warranty. It's the price we pay for custom romming etc.
Did you by any chance buy a second hand device? I've never heard of phones coming unlocked by default.

I bought it used-like new on Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/Huawei-Nexus-6P-unlocked-smartphone/dp/B015YCRYZM). Says it has a US Warranty.

:S good luck. If it's any consolation my warranty region is HK not USA. You might be ok.
