So I had my phone rooted, and removed some of the ATT apps using instructions from here: http://androidforums.com/samsung-captivate/124736-t-bloatware-getting-your-way-delete-some.html
After doing all this, the phone still worked fine, but as of today I can't seem to connect via USB. ADB doesn't see the phone, and even if I disable USB debugging and attempt to just connect as mass storage, the drives don't show up in my computer like they used to.
I attempted a windows rollback to just before I installed the drivers, then reconnected the phone, but I did not get any message about unknown devices, and the phone doesn't seem to be in my device manager.
Can anyone help me out here?
Edit: Running Windows 7 x64
you erased something you werent supposed to. dl the dump posted here & move it to an Micro SD. Put it in your phone and use a program to move it from external to internal memory then load back all the apps you deleted.
If I had deleted something, shouldn't USB connectivity have died right after I did that, and not after a night of doing nothing with the phone?
Either way, How exactly would I go about restoring from that stock dump that was posted?
Mine is doing the same thing. Had a hard time with the windows 7 drivers to begin with though.
I am going back to XP when I get home. Will see if it will recognize it then.

Hm, an update on my situation: 3g watchdog died on me a couple times (gave me the popup, asked me to force close), so I decided to reboot the phone, and now everything works like it used to. I had also restarted my PC since the last time I tried (and failed) to connect over USB.
So if anyone else is having similar problems, I guess try rebooting both the phone and your computer.
I'm going to be keeping a copy of that "Rooted Stock System Restore" update.zip on my phone from now on, just in case.
The first Captivate I got from AT&T did the exact same thing right out of the box. I actually had to return it for another unit. Hopefully that was just a freak thing though.
I had a similar issue with windows 7 when I was first trying to connect via usb. Not sure if this will work for you, but I had to plug it into my rear port, the front ones didn't work just for the captivate.

it seems im having the same probs too i removed the att stock apps that were in one of the posts, im downloading samsung kies atm to see if that will help...
Edit, it did...windows and ADB redetected it.
I also rooted my Captivate and removed all of the AT&T crap. USB connection is still working fine under Windows 7 x64. Didn't install Kies or drivers either.
Halleleujah!
I had the same problem. Got this file from Samsung, and it worked on my Win7Ultimate 64 bit machine.
Try making sure you are back to touch wiz and see if it works... Worked for me.
I had some issues trying to get my phone to connect also ...
Windows Vista64 Ult.
Initially the MTP driver would hang when the phone was connected, and then eventually it would indicate that the installation was successful, then it would re-install itself after about 5 minutes. This was an endless loop which was severely draining of my system resources causing other applications to hang as well. I removed the drivers and ...
I downloaded the USB drivers from Samsung and installed them, when I connected the phone the computer did not recognize it, nor did the display on the phone indicate that it was plugged in. I tried several different USB ports.
I then changed the mode to mass storage and the phone was recognized, but both the internal and my secondary memory cards displayed 0 bytes free of 0 bytes available.
I downloaded the UK version of Kies, this was an utter waste of time. The Kies utility was not able to connect to the phone at all. I mass storage mode Kies displays an alert that it is not compatible, and the same goes for media player mode. If left in Kies mode the phone displays "connected", but the Kies utility just displays "connecting" and never progresses. Uninstalled Kies, and re-installed the Samsung driver ...
Connected the phone in Media Player mode, which is allowing me to access both memory locations without difficulty. Though windows pisses me off every time I connect the phone because it wants to sync windows media center with the phone ... though this is easily ignored.
Has anyone gotten the Kies utility to work with the captivate?

Try the Canada version, that's been working great for me, in Kies mode and all.
I had the similar kind of issue, look for the thread with ODIN and windows drivers, that is what worked for me...
I am a proud new owner of shiny new Galaxy S Vibrant. I was working on new wallpaper, and trying to resolve the issue of why my custom 960x800 wallpaper was not as sharp on my phone as it is on my desktop. That was yesterday, so today I thought I'd give it another go, but now for whatever reason, my phone wont' connect to my PC. I am running Windows 7 32Bit. I have seen all the issues others have had connecting to their PC. I have tried all suggestions from those other threads, and none work. But here's what really annoys me, each time I attempt to connect my phone to my PC I get various responses from my PC. Sometimes the PC says "installing drivers," but it fails to do so, other times in the upper right corner of the Kies window it will say "connecting device" but never does. Some times the mtp application screen on the phone flashes as it attempt to connect, other times it doesn't flash, but still say its attempting to connect. I was able to connect once today. But after disconnecting, it has gone back to not wanting to connect. I'm not even trying to connect to Kies anymore, the phone won't even get recognized as a mass storage device. I tried the phone on different USB Settings (ie. Ask On Connection, Samsung Kies, Mass Storage, etc...), also tried unmounting and mounting internal SD card (don't have external sd card) and still no success. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling drivers, and rebooted PC and phone. I did the dreaded formating of the internal sd card and Even rebooted my patience, but still get no love between phone and PC. I think it's juast a matter of bad bad bad Drivers, not the Kies software itself. The driver is what makes the device and PC comunicate. I think Kies itself is ok. In a world of plug in play, what a way to put a damper on a completely otherwise beautiful mobile phone experience.
ive had some problems with kies but its always when ive flashed new firmware and my only solution was to uninstall kies then reinstall.
i dont think it should be called kies cos kies open doors and let u enter while this kies shuts the door and wont let you fooking in.

After half an hour trying I have just found a working solution how to connect your SGS in Kies. Here is the deal:
Start Kies, put phone's USB settings in Kies mode. Connect your phone to the PC. Wait until MTP App show "Connected". Go to your PC's Device manager, find Portable Devices and select Disable on GT-I9000. Do not wait for the disabling process to be completed, just disconnect the USB cable. Now connect the USB cable again, wait the MTP App on the phone to show you the message "Connected" and choose Enable on GT-I9000 in Device Manager. After a few seconds your phone should be ready in Kies
I tried this both on x86 and x64 Windows 7 and it works for me.
I hope this will help! And I hope there isn't another thread with this solution. If there is - I'm sorry
i cant wait to get home and try this... another 10h to go
but if this helps ur a geniues

Will put this in the FAQ if we have some confirmations for its effectiveness
when i first bought my phone it worked with kies, but after flashing it to a different firmware there was nothing i could do to get it to connect. i had deleted drivers, re-installed, etc etc but nothing worked. what ended up working was putting the phone in download mode, plugging in the usb to both phone and pc, then putting the phone into recovery mode, and as soon as the recovery menu popped up my device was recognized and the correct drivers were reinstalled and all was fine again

If you still have this problem, please try my method and tell me if it works
I had issues and I also tried this method. But it didn't help
Last thing I tried was to format the internal SD. That did the trick for me....
The biggest problem with getting the phone to connect to Kies is two fold:
1) MTP application will ONLY launch from the home screen (touchwiz screen). NOT from any app. drawer / launcher screen
2) If USB mode on the phone is set to Ask on Connection, MTP won't launch due to the USB app. being open (see 1) above)
If you set USB to Kies mode and then ensure you are on the home screen of the phone with nothing else running, Kies WILL connect
Also remember the 16+ size extension bug.
So a full wipe on ur I internal sd card is a good solution just make sure u back it up tour hdd
I also did a "Driver recovery" from Kies and it worked after that. Although MTP driver failed to install for me in this case.
Make sure to update to the latest version of Kies ( Now 1.5.1.0074.45 ) as this version seems far more reliable when connecting the phone
I recently discovered that the culprit of Kies continuously trying to connect to phone was caused by wrong MTP driver selected.
Under WinXP
After phone connected in Kies Mode..Go to Device Manager/Portable device..
If you see a device labeled as "MTP xxx or Portable device.." ,wrong MTP driver or older driver has been used..For my case, a Microsoft 2004 MTP driver was selected.
To fix it.
1) Do a manual driver update..for my case ,i let the driver wizard to search automatically..this round, another newer Microsoft driver was found..in fact 2 of them.. after installing the drivers(Microsoft 2006 MTP driver,2 are listed..). .Now Device Manager/Portable device listed "GT-i9000" ,Kies immediately found my phone.
Driver name that worked are "wpdusb.sys" and "wudfrd.sys" found under \windows\System32\drivers\..

You must not understand English. The entire reason I posted a comment was to share how I overcame this issue, so that would mean I no longer have this issue
Probable Fix for Kies
Friends,
I have also faced the same problem (while connecting my SGS via Kies MTP was crashing). It used to work earlier so I started to remove Applications and data in the reverse order of Installation. After I removed "Dolphin Browser HD" and all saved bookmarks it started working.
This may be a probable solution if you also have Installed Dolphin Browser.
~Gaurav
India.
2 different issues.
MTP crashing on phone is independent from Kies on PC cant detect phone.
i couldnt use kies either but i wasnt worried as i hardly have free time now..
this was a simple fix and now it workes perfectly for me.
sorry about the late replay.
thanks
I'm glad that it works for you

You might be interested in my little APK (SGS Toolbox). I first created it to have it read the product code from the nv_data file to allow you to check whether it has been modified after a firmware update. But now I added some extra options, of which one is the option to check whether there are new firmware updates available in KIES by issuing the same request KIES does when checking for new firmware. This way you don't have to connect your phone to your computer all the time to check for new updates in KIES. Note: It sends JM1 as the current firmware version to find the latest. I might send the actual phone's firmware version once I figured out how to find it. See: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=778244
Thanks, I'll give it a try
Deleted. Wrong thread.
Ever since I rooted I can not get my Epic to connect to a computer period. I'm about to give up and just deal with what I got, hopefully someone can tell me what I'm doing wrong. Before anyone decides to be a smart ass I have used the search function literally for days and have tried tons of things recommended with no result. I am the first to admit I'm an idiot when it comes to anything involving computers but I'm pretty determained to learn.
This has to be the phone because I have tried to connect to 2 desktops (1 running Windows 00 and 1 running the most updated Ubuntu), and 3 laptops (Windows xp, Windows Vista and Ubuntu). When I rooted I used the Vista computer and connected fine (can't anymore). I didn't have the space on the C drive to install the Android SDK so I switched to Ubuntu (first time user btw lol). Somehow when I was backing my SD card I lost any access to it or the notification bar. I never got my SD back til I rebooted but I haven't been able to connect to any PC since. When I charge (even in the car) it always tries to stay in mass storage mode. I basically charge in my car with my phone off hoping it will just charge and not mount my sd card to my car or wall lol. Yes I wiped 3 times, partitioned sd, tried several different cables (but my husband used mine and no problems on his Motorola) I'm sure I've done something wrong when I rooted or mounted to Ubuntu.
I also can't use adb. I followed the directions to the t (a few times lol) but when I run any commands it says "no such file or directory" I didn't have adb on the windows pc when I di noobnl's one click so I never ran the (adb shell ect) commands. I now can't do jack. I am now running noobnl's DI18 ROM with modem.bin flashed thru Clockworkmod.
I have tried all the basics you will find wit 2 days of web search.
My goal is DK28 (dream on Erica lol)...Thanks for any help and for anyone sparing me a lashing ;-)

When you plug in on your windows pcs...in Device manager..do you see anything appear? also do you have USB debugging on the phone?
USB debugging on?
Have you tried reinstalling the drivers for the Epic?
Rebooted phone and PC? (Sometimes it helps)
Used Odin?
Something might have been screwed up during one of your downloads, bad file maybe. Try reinstalling your drivers first, use Odin (phone must be in download mode), and see if it recognizes te device. If it does then Odin the stock .tar file and go from there. It'll give you a fresh start.
That's all I can think of right now.

I bet your USB debugging is on since most root's requier it. Even tho it says connect to pc if usb debugging is on it wont connect to my windows 7 box
I would suggest, if you're really having this many issues, just boot into download mode (1 on the keyboard + power button) and odin back to di18.
Just for kicks have you tried Settings > Privacy > Factory data reset? I assume that wiping does the same thing if not more but it's worth it to see if it somehow resets a setting that might be the issue.
What's left - software issue or Hardware issue.
Software:
hmmm...yeah gotta try connecting through Odin which uses downloader mode instead of USB modes...
Can Odin see your phone? Run Odin as admin with antivirus off, and proper samsung drivers installed. Then boot phone holding down 1 key into downloader mode. Connect to computer through USB port on back of computer (i.e. directly to motherboard) - does Odin identify something attached to USB port?
Yes - flash the dk28!
No - with Odin still on, unplug the USB cable, pause, and reconnect it. Still No? Try a different USB port on computer. Also try uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers - be sure to reboot the PC. If still No, then try on another computer, and as you did before, try different cables. Still No?? --> hardware problem with phone.
Hardware problem with phone: Look at the usb port in the phone - is there any junk in there that might interefere with the connection?
Yes - clean it out
No: phone perhaps internally damaged:
Solution for hardware damage:
You and husband clean up and go to sprint store.
At store - tech will know phone is rooted, so:
--Tech more likely to like you? You handle it, maybe even blame husband. Husband can silently attend and look sheepish, playing the part of 'me man, me dominate environment, me break fancy tech of wife, me sorry." Try to get free replacement phone while simultaneously promising never to let your husband root the phone again, or even touch it.
--Tech more likely to like husband? He goes alone, cops to the true story of how you rooted it and then was backing stuff up when it suddenly stopped working [truth from men? so sincere!]. Try to get free replacement phone while simultaneously promising not to let you in the house should you even attempt to root again.
P.S. forgot to add you might turn off the PCs firewall while testing, as well.

same here. I tried out the free tethering app the other day and with usb debugging on i coudl never get it to install the proper drivers. Without it on and the 64bit drivers installed Odin worked just fine.
I have seen many Galaxy S devices not connect to a computer because of a faulty USB cable. Had my girlfriends sister switch out 3 Vibrants only to accidentally try and connect it to a laptop with a different USB cable and I've seen two others not connect with the stock Samsung USB cable.
How I fixed the tethering issue
I've had the same problem with my galaxy s - connecting to the PC (Win7 32bit) just doesn't do anything. As a test, I had a friend with the same phone/rom (froyo, rooted) connect - and he was able to! It installed the drivers and it just worked. He disconnected, I connected, and now it's fine.
So, see if you can find someone with the same phone and see if they can connect. Makes no sense to me, but it worked.
I've had my Epic fail to mount before. Interestingly any time I had an issue it was with a Mac - it always mounts on a PC. I'll stop now before I open up a can of worms.
Best advice I have is get a Dropbox account. You can use that guy to move files from a computer to the SD card without having to mount to the computer. Perhaps you can get a factory ROM (with root of course) on your phone that way?
You can get a app from the market called SWIFTP (free) & connect to your sdcard via ftp server. This can be a temporary fix till you get your connection error resolved.
I have 1 USB port on my laptop that the Epic shows up as "unknown device" on. Works on every other port, and everything else works just fine on the same port. The factory USB cable is finicky!
Hello all,
I have a Samsung galaxy S II purchased in Israel from Cellcom.
In my ill advised attempt to unbrand, and thus accelerate, improve memory and battery consumption, I flashed a stock ROM which I believed to be the latest.
The phone works great, with one exception. There seems to be no way to connect it to PC, be it WIN7 32bit or ubuntu 32bit. original usb cable or other cable, my stationary workstation or my laptop, be it USB Storage mode, USB Debugging, that stupid Kies mode, and most importantly because i'd like to flush it back, no Odin Mode. (in win32 - any mode gets "unknown device" status like the device doesn't publish it's name correctly or similar.)
moments before the flash the phone connected in all modes.
I think i've pretty much covered all of the obvious. and there is no problem with my latest sdk and drivers as my Nexus S still connects to both PC's with great success.
SO some info - and what I have already researched.
from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1113928, I gather that the PDA on my Cellcome bought SGS2 is either JIKG3 or JIKJ1. and that it's a GT19100T and I gather that denotes some kind of hardware specification.
the ROM I've flushed to my phone has this name:
GT-I9100_XEU_I9100XWKJ3_I9100XEUKH2_I9100XXKI3.tar.md5
everything seems wrong about this ROM in hindsight but, the worst is that it has no T, and probably isn't very hardware compatible. (though the telephony, wifi, camera, sensors and anything I tried works).
The phone is not rooted as after flushing I have lost any USB connectivity. I therefore cannot try and manipulate system files, to try to recover that way.
I have tried to root with the exploit apk. to no effect. I gather it's a statistically challenged way of rooting so I'll try my luck a lot more during the wait for your answer, and report any success.

just the single one.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with the ROM itself as I have been using it on my phone for a couple weeks now.
The problem exists between your phone and your PC, the PC is stating that it's an unknown device after all.
What I would try is to un-install the device in Device Manager, unplug the device and restart the PC and then plug the phone in again, if that does not work, I would throw in a factory reset of the device itself while repeating the above steps

What do you mean by that? The nexus drivers have nothing to do with the galaxy drivers. Only if you run an AOSP rom you will need those drivers. Not if you run a stock rom.
Am I right that your pc sees the phone, but does not recognize it? Did you try reinstalling kies? And then from within kies tried to reinstall the phone drivers?
your PC may not recognize the device after the radio or kernel is changed. what I did was uninstall every single usb device from device manager and reboot, fixed.

jamesyb0i - I saw that some people have been successful after uninstalling all usb devices, I'm challenged in this task as my keyboard and mouse are USB. I will try it on my laptop as soon as I'll get access to it, though because of the wide range of computer and OS I've tried I'm pretty sure the effort will be ultimately futile.

Lennyz1988 - I see your point about the ADB Driver for the Nexus S, but as for the other advice.
As I said, I extensively tried to run it on multiple PC's multiple OS's.
I did try to uninstall / reinstall kies, and kies drivers.
after that didn't help. I got an SGS2 from a friend, just to try it on my computer.
it worked just fine.

The problem I believe is specifically because of the GTI9100/GTI19100T differences
I'm sure as achillies400 said that there is nothing wrong with the ROM itself. BUT the problem is not with my PC's it is more likely the different hardware, and the hardware driver on the phone itself that makes my phone become an "unknown device".

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have the same problem, and I couldn't find anyone else w/ it or with answers either.
almost all the same scenario except I have an SGSII AT&T I777 that started out as UCKJ1 and is now UCKH7
My phone started coming up as unknown device. I can not find any remedy to the solution.
Here's my scenario: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1372171
My guess is I might try to uninstall "new" programs that I added to the phone and PC, uninstall kies etc. and drivers, and maybe try and do a restore or refresh or something on my phone and see if I can get to "scratch" and re-start from there.
I installed winamp on phone and reinstalled it on PC for wifi, and it kept mounting/unmounting my SD card from phone to computer each time I plugged it in (I think that messed with my card possibly giving it "unknown")
Or also when I changed my Kernel may have made the phone unknown. Those are the only 2 changes I can assume did this to my phone =/
any update on your phone?
UPD: My kernel was causing all my problems. Restored to an earlier backup and it had older kernel. All problems were relieved.
