I had asked help for getting the drivers installed in my laptop.I have been trying for days and different solutions to make my laptop recognize my x10i but culdnt succeed.
But now i found the solution.I just inserted half of the usb cable into the usb port of the laptop.I didnt fully plug it in.It may sound stupid but it worked.
I thought i'll answer in my thread, but both of them are closed.
That means your PC USB port is loose. Just like mine, I have to plug in half of the USB into the port or it will keep plug in and plug out all the time.
yea..is there anyways i can get the port in my phone fixed.Is it gonna be costly?
I don't think its your phone problem. It may be related to your laptop USB port as the device still get Detected.

I get a rather frustrating mesaage when I connect my O2 Exec via the USB port. It takes about 3 time before the connection with the comp finally happen.
The message is - 'USB Device not recognised' ' One of the USB devices has malfunctioned ........'.
Does anybody else have this problem and can anybody help?
Yep
I get the same problem but only with one PC. It happens on either USB port and is not helped by adding a USB hub. As such i am investigating the problem as if it is PC based.
Is this with ActiveSync or CardExport? Either way try rebooting PC first, wait for it to finish loading Windows. Power off your Universal, connect cable to Universal and PC then power on Universal. Seems to work okay for me. If you are using CardExport, remember you can't change modes while connected.
Regards
I have an O2 xda mini and that connects first time every time.
Found it strange that the Exec did not do same!
I have this on one PC - make sure the XDA is turned off first. Then plug the USB cable in and it should power up by itself and get recognised by the PC.
Also make sure you are using the very latest ActivSync (4.1 I believe).
Thanks lads - connect the cable while the Exec was off and it cobnnects first time. Good stuff!!
Why is that?
I think its the phone not the pc that is at fault, as i had a usb car charger and a usb power charger, both using a standard usb lead and the same fault applies, obviously just charging, AS wouldnt happen would it lol.
me missus just got a wizard and none of these faults occur on it
I concur that the plugging in USB while Uni is switched off is much more successful. Can I check with you guys - can you activesync by USB while bluetooth is on? I've not been successful with that.

bought generic micro usb cables from amazon and when i try to use as data transfer from computer running windows 7 it says device drivers not installed correctly but when i use original it works fine... i have tried 3 of the five i bought and they are all the same are the cables faulty or did samsung change their cable? anyone else having this problem?
i am running antoniomistrerrA note xxkka rom with 2.6.35.14-fm-gbda6637 kernal... thanks for the rtesponse
Throw the cables and buy new one. Some of the USB cables are not proper wired and wires are in bad quality.

Well that has happened for me, but since yesterday im not being able to transfer data even with de original usb cable. has this happened to anyone else?
There are some cables that are charge only. Can you post a link.
GALAXY NOTE
I'm using the original cable that came with the note but somehow only charges! it doesn't even do that usb sound when plugged, tried restarting the phone and KIES doesn't detect it either..
This is happening after yesterday the phone started saying it was having a charging/unplug LOOP (constantly vibrating) even with the cable off. this was fixed removing the battery :/
Edit 1#
i am also being unable to plug the phone via mass storage usb, it asks me to plug the usb cable and then nothing..
Edit 2#
So i confirm it's now fixed, i tried to unplug again the battery and also cleaned the usb connector of the phone with a toothbrush.. one of those fixed the problem. now I'm just crossing fingers it won't happen again :/
Hi,
I have for two days tried getting my PC to recognize my SGS2. With no luck. I want to ROOT my phone.
I am using Windows 7 64-bit and gingerbread v2.3.5
- USB-debugging is turned OFF.
- I have tried to format the SD-card, even used different SD-cards.
- I have tried using another PC, with no luck.
- Tried diffrent versions of Kies; 1.5, 2.0, and 2.1
- Tried diffrent versions of the Samsung Mobile driver; 1.3 and 1.4.8
- Tried using a different USB-cable (the one I'm using, is original and i can see that my phone is charging.)
- I have formatted the phone several times.
- I have tried typing *#7284# and changes the USB setting from Modem -> PDA
- Windows Drivers are up-to-date.
- I cannot see anything in the Device manager.
What else is there to do? Is something wrong with my phone?
Is there any APK, besides from Gingerbreak, that i can use to root my phone?
Cheers
Could you tried it in another PC with Windows XP?
When you plug it in to the USB port... Does the phone start to charge up?
Sounds like a hardware issue, i too have Windows 7 X64 on my laptop and no such problems.
Give a shot with USB debugging to ON.

I had the same problem.
This may sound stupid, but it does work, try another USB port.
I just plugged my USB cable into either one of the front USB ports on my PC (WinXP) and sometimes the phone connected (Debugging ON: phone was an external hard drive. Debugging OFF: phone connected to KIES) and other times it didn't. I tried toggling the Debugging, switching off and on the phone, changing USB cables, uninstalling KIES and then reinstalling KIES.
I finally noticed that the phone worked fine on the front left USB port and not on the front right. I have the same thing happening on my work's PC (only it was the front right port that worked). The rear USB ports didn't work.
I doubt that it is a problem with the PC operating system (I found out later that someone with a Mac had the same problem). It therefore must be with the phone's software recognising a connection with a computer and only wanting to connect through that initial connection port.

ive noticed this problem too of it only working with certain usb ports and not others on the same pc. Quite annoying when i was trying to use my phone to transfer some files from another computer and the phone wasnt picked up by the computer.
I think it may have something to do with using MTP rather than standard USB mass storage.
Never plug your phone or any other usb powered device into your front USB ports. most of them do not supply full power. As a matter of practice you should always plug your phone into a direct motherboard USB port on the back of your computer.
I had the same problem with my front ports several times on several computers. My first galaxy S1 would not work on my front port either. all problems were solved by plugging into the direct motherboard usb ports.
Why would you turn USB debugging off?

Do you have Administrator rights?
try installing drivers manually on your pc
and then plug the phone ( usb debugging off )
Try 32bit system
Try using a 32bit XP or 7 PC someone I know had the same problem their Win 7 never gave the problem when flashing or connection with their SGS2 for over 6 months. And just the other day they had a problem so they used a XP 32 bit PC connect ok flashed ok once the phone was rebooted they connect to their Win 7 64bit and the PC saw their handset. So what gives

I have plugged in many different phones and other devices that take their power from the Front USB ports on my PC. Power has never been a problem. Recognising a device can sometimes be a problem (but the same problem happens with the rear USB ports).
I regularly charge my SGSII via the Front USB port of my PC (both work and home). Quite a few of my workmates now do the same because a spare microUSB cable is much cheaper than a good mains charger and also they can back up their phone and transfer files as well.
This worked for me
1. Unplug the USB cable
2. On the cell phone, dial the following number: *#7284# Once the last # is hit, the PhoneUtil application is launched. Choose USB -> Modem and then USB -> PDA mode. The good mode should be PDA. Even if the mode is PDA, switch to Modem and then back to PDA.
3. Plug the USB cable.
Sometimes if you're not using the cord that came with the phone it won't recognize the phone
I had the same problem with my phone but I found the cord the phone came with and it solved the problem

Try turning off your antivirus first for drivers to install. Worked for me.

I have just installed SiyahKernel 2.3 and Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bits did not recognize my SGS2.
What I did is turn on and then turn off the "USB debug" option. It was off at the beginning but... I did that just in case and...
That solved my problem.
Similar issue
My phone charges when plugged in but won't mount. It worked fine until about a month ago.
I'd similar problem.
My SGS2 couldn't be connected to PC (Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit) by USB cable, but it could be connected via Wi-Fi. I found out, that my, however original, USB cable was faulty (could only supply a juice from USB port ). When I used my wife's cable (she's got SGS2 too), everything was fine: my phone connected to PC, Kies v.2.1.0.11112_41 checked firmware and wanted to update, but couldn't do it, because battery was almost flat - I'm charging it now.
Will see tomorrow, however I was able to connect SGS2 to PC via USB cable
Still having the recognition problem, however you can get around it a number if ways. Use Kies wifi to get files to your phone. Use mobile Odin to flash.
Highly recommend to pay the $2 for pro version, that way it will stay rooted.

Hi im new here
I got my hd2 when it first came out running winmo 6.5 now i just cant connect it to the computer tried more than 1 computer and more than one cable when i connect it only charges i receive nothing on the computer like i used to before i have tried everything in the setting usb to pc still same thing
please help me how can i connect it
and i also tried hard resetting it more than once same thing
under settings tab -----other , there will be a usb to pc button
I bet you have tried all setting changes so since you have done a hard reset and it still doesnt work, it has to be your micro USB cable. I had the exact same problem as yours and i feared that it was the micro USB port that was faulty. But then i tried a different micro USB cable and it works perfectly. Hence, it is likely to be your cable. Im not bad mouthing HTC because of the amazing work they have done, but their accesories seem to be a bit down on quality. My original micro USB cable is now frayed and almost severed, my Touch HD micro USB is also frayed and the original earpiece is now experiencing audio balance issues.
the thing is the cable that comes with the hd2 i lost it but when i was using it i could connect
but now im using nexus one cable and Nokia n900 cable to connect to the computer and it just charges like i said nothing appears
Have you tired different ports in your computer or tried reinstalling the drivers? To do that, uninstall the Activesync or Windows Mobile Device Center in your PC and reinstall it. Then try. If you still cannot connect your HD2 to the PC for USB mode, then im afraid the micro USB port in your HD2 is faulty. Try the above. Meanwhile, use the SD card method for flashing or transfer files using wi-fi or bluetooth.
Good Luck
If your HD2's USB port doesn't work you can connect to ActiveSync via bluetooth. I do that very often for a quick synchronization, and since HD2 has an Activesync profile it's easy to configure...
Anyway, check that "accept USB connections" option is selected in your pc ActiveSync configuration.
Most probably, he's facing the da** usb port breaking issue.

Hello everyone, this is my first post and it´s about my Defy, which, for some reason, the USB port does not work to access the phone and/or the SD Card.
1: I did a soft and hard reset and the problem persists.
2: The phone does not show up on the device manager under Windows so not even an error message saying "Device not recognized" or something. Also, it won´t show up in Ubuntu.
3. The "Connect your charger" message shows up all the time.
4. No notification in the phone when plugged to the PC .
5. Even though I can´t access the phone from the PC, I still can´t charge it through the USB port.
6. I can connect/access the phone and SD Card using Wi-Fi (Motorola Phone Portal) but not USB. I can see "Plug in USB to launch" in Phone Portal but cannot press the button, only the one referring to Wi-Fi.
PS: This is my second Defy, the first one got the same problem so I got a new one... sadly, the it happened again.
PS2: I wonder if a USB 3.0 port has to do with anything? It´s the only thing that I noticed before the USB stopped working.
Any help or hint is greatly appreciated.
well, i don't think it's an usb3 problem ...
to be sure you could try to connect your phone with an older usb2 port computer ...
is the phone charging on wall charger and usb-cable ???
if not, it really sounds like a hardware failure ... then i would send it to customer service and tell them that there is the same problem again .. maybe the just repaired something and it's faulty again ... be sure, that they are changing the faulty things ...
if your phone is charging on wall charger, it could be that it is an problem with your pc ... try another one ...

1. I mentioned the USB 3.0 port because it was the only common thing just before the usb conection stopped working.
2. The phone charges normally using the wall charger or usb (2.0, 3.0) cable through the PC.
3. It does not matter what PC is connected to or the OS (Ubuntu, Win7)/
Thanks for the response!
It is possible to brick it. Wtih some phone's it seems to be a common error for usb ports to be blown.
Could also be the cable... My cable that came with the defy was already snatched after a few months. My screen started going on and of when I was charging it.

Is there a way to check for faulty hardware-related issues?
just test different cables, computers or even mobiles ... then you will see, what is faulty

What I meant was some software that check or even some kind of physical device.
Anyway, I know it´s not the cable or PC faulty but the phone itself. But I want to confirm if it´s software or hardware related and if there´s a fix.
Thanks!
Try using USB with logcat open. You might see something in the log that will tell you what's happening
