Okay so last night I flashed the BNG3 firmware for T-Mobile via Odin and everything went fine. After a while my phone started having force closes saying "log reporting has stopped working" and wouldn't let me do anything. So I rooted with Philz touch recovery and flashed the latest XtreStolite ROM but I noticed that my internal memory was formatted so I decided to plug my phone into my computer so I can restore my backup. Won't show up in my computer and kies says that my computer does not have the software required to recognize my device. When in recovery I can mount my actual SD card but not my internal memory. When I decided to flash the latest cm 11 rom, both of them showed up in my computer but I couldn't see any of the folders but I can see the amount of memory left. The only file I can see is a blank file that's labeled as AVG file and that's it. I'm thinking that when I used Odin it formatted my internal memory to a specific format that my computer is not recognizing. I have tried reformating, different cables and different computers and nothing works! Can anyone help please?? :/

is it possibile to unroot the epic eb13 without having to use the cable/ odin / or anything computer related?
my phone is not working with odin or anything if i plug the usb in, but i am able to move stuff to and from my SD card by just putting the SD card in the computer.
took to sprint to try and get it repaired BUT cause they saw i was rooted they said they cant help me because i am rooted.
by the way i have tried VARIOUS methods of trying to get the usb to work by using 4 different usb cables. uninstall and install the drivers. different usb slots in the computer.
all keep showing
"USB device not recognized"
I had this problem when I was getting ready to upgrade from rooted DK18 to EB13. I wanted to backup my stuff first but the usb wouldn't recognize mass storage. I think I may have broke something when I started removing apk's and disabled touchwiz in favor of launcher pro. The phone worked fine but mass storage was not available. When I installed the Epic drivers on my laptop and connected my phone, the mass storage still wasn't recognized but Odin did see a connection.
If Odin still sees your connection on a different pc (disregard the windows error), then flash whatever firmware you need and all should be well.
Let me know if this helps.
PS....Don't forget to disconnect and reconnect your phone at least twice after installing drivers on a new pc. It takes at least 2 reconnects to install the drivers correctly...at least thats always been my experience.
im getting nothing in odin =/
Yes, but have you tried connecting to a different pc. I had the exact same issue on my desktop pc and then I tried on my laptop. For some unknown reason Odin worked fine (but still no mass storage).
At first I thought there was something wrong with my desktop's usb ports but after I flashed back to stock, suddenly mass storage was available on both my laptop and the original pc. Don't ask me why, it just worked.
Doesn't doing a hard reset make you lose ur root?

What rom was you on and what kernel did you have installed
Use USB-Jig to force Note into Downloadmode,
if that is working you can go back to any stock firmware flashing with odin.
...like I mentioned in your other thread.

my phone already can b go into download mod, and when any rom inserted through recovery, when phone opened every thing is okey but can not recognize the sd card and when opening the camera it turn off immediately and write (turn off usb mass storage before using), so how i can turn off usb mass storage?

So why do you say your phone is bricked? Do you know what "bricked" means? it's just a problem with usb storage. It should be kernel related or ROM related.
Try another ROM or Kernel. Check root is properly done and read well before posting your phone is "bricked". That way, people can actually help you.

As joyo22 said - your phone is not bricked and looks like it is a kernel issue. Have you tried Abyss or Franco? They have both worked fine on mine and always have access to camera and sd card.
sorry i dont know what is Abyss or Franco,,,but the new problem is that my note is now dead, battery not charging at all,,pc,kies and odin cant recognize it,,,plz help

When I plug my nook into my laptop it 'briefly' enters USB mode, and then drops it and the drives. It then tries to go back into USB mode, and basically does this repeatedly until it gives up The nook is basically unusable during this and keeps flashing with the usb mode and normal home screen. After this happens, both the Nook internal storage and SD card are greyed out in settings, reading "unavailable", and the SD card cannot be accessed and is not detected in any way. What gives?
Is this a windows problem, a nook software problem, or a hardware problem? I'm not sure if this happened before I rooted, since I basically just took a backup and rooted as soon as I had it out of the christmas wrapping.

Can you please try to connect it to the pc without the sd-card inserted?
Have you tried reloading the original firmware?

The same thing happens when connecting without the SD card. I haven't tried reloading the original firmware yet but I first really noticed it happening after I did a full backup with NookManager on 1.0.1. That was when I could not get it to stay in usb mode long enough to copy the 1.1 update zip into the directory. The only way I was able to get it in was I 'tried' doing the 6 hard resets where I tried holding down shut down 6 times in a row (but nothing special happened so I thought nothing happened). And then I restarted windows and it seemed to work, for a while anyway, until I rooted. I wonder if that had to do with restarting windows or restarting the nook a couple dozen times. lol
The changes I've made so far to my nook ST:
1.0.1 backup with noogy
1.0.1 backup with nookmanager
1.1 manually update
1.1 root with touchnooter
I rooted 3 times in a row because the first time none of the apps worked
multi touch kernal with CWM
then I switched to
OC kernel with fast mode
lots of software additions and tweaks like legacy launcher, wallpaper changer, ES file explorer, adb wifi
Static IMEI mod
Whatsapp verification/install
So besides the USB problem it's kicking ass at this point . I really hope I don't have to restore to original firmware or return it for hard ware problems. So I can confirm this is not a usual occurrence? Let me test it on some other computers to see if it's my laptop...
UPDATE: I started windows in safe mode and it had no problems whatsoever connecting to the nook as it should, and the nook didn't go nuclear either. So I suspect it's some drivers or software relating to virtual disks that is conflicting with the nook, or something else enigmatic. What a pain..
I just flashed the stock Android 4.3 Finaly 2.0 with Ausdim's new kernel for 4.3 (v10).
For some reason, the external SD isn't recognizable while the phone is booted up, but I can view it in TWRP recovery.
The SD is working, I put it into another phone and it reads the files fine, but when I plug the S4 into my computer, it installs the drivers, and the S4 charges, but I can't view any files.
Any suggestions on what I can do to fix this?
Thanks!:good:
Hello,
After rooting the system I tried to upgrade the stock firmware.
I probably did something wrong because now the device won't boot.
At startup it shows the "Nubia... Powered by android" screen and does not continue with the boot process.
I still have access to TWRP so I tried to wipe everything and to install the ROM from TWRP.
It looks as if the ROM is installed correctly, but it requires reboot and after reboot the same "Nubia... Powered by android" screen comes up.
I also tried the emergency recovery but that installs only from external sd card (that the Z17 lite does not have), or from OTG device. I connected a USB thumb drive with OTG cable but it doesn't recognize it
At this point I have no idea what else to do.
I'd be happy for any assistance.
TIA

UPDATE: I tried different USB drives. One of them mounted. I found that this one was formatted in FAT. Since this is a small 2Gb drive that cannot hold the ROM, I found another drive that was formatted in ExFAT that also loaded correctly.
I loaded the ROM as suggested and now the phone is working again.
My guess is that the phone can't read NTFS file format in emergency recovery mode.
