Have you tried a different cable and a different USB port? If you are using a PC try using a USB port attached directly to the motherboard (generally on the back of the pc) instead of the ones on the front of the PC. Restart your phone and your PC. And turn USB debugging on. Hope this helps.

i tried both and same result
When you say you tried several usb's, do you mean several usb ports on the pc or several usb cords? Try both. The stock usb cable is garbage. I have 2 epics in my household and both stock usb cords stopped working properly fairly quickly.

And just a queston about the usb cords.
Do they stop working completely or does ur phone still charge when its plugged in? Cuz m phone still charges just dosnt connect the sd card to the computer
They stopped hooking to the pc first, and eventually stopped charging as well.

I just tried the same usb on a different model phone and it connected normally. I'm not sure what the problem is now.
and just tp make sure my prioblem wasnt from the usb cord i just bought a new one and still its not working.
Make sure your not using a launcher that will hide notification bar, I just made a tip thread in general for this problem, which may or may not help you
Now it will work ever now and again ( 1out of 10 times maybe), but if you use TW launcher it will work every single time. I'm looking into why hiding the noty bar borks USB/sdcard mounting.
I had a similiar problem where it would not connect with usb debugging on. I had to go into control panel and device manager, find the connection with USB debugging on, and then hit update driver from Windows Update. Took about 30 minutes but all worked fine after that.

It may be "Other" or Samsung Android. Does your computer make the connect sound? There should be something in the USBs if it does.

Make sure to use the same port you installed the drivers on. There also may be dirt in your usb on your phone.

[Q] USB data not working after repair

So, I took a device in for screen repair. Got my phone back, with a magnificent new screen. When I got home, I hooked it up to the computer via USB cable, nothing. No mount USB option in the phone, nothing showing in windows device manager. I try to enable debugging, nothing. I boot into download mode, still nothing. I think maybe I have a bad cable, so I try one, then another, still nothing. Maybe my computer's messed up. I try another, still nothing. The phone charges fine, but will not activate any USB data options, such as tethering, adb, or file transfer. All of these things worked fine before I gave it in for repair.
Does anyone have any advice on what I should do before going back to the store and accuse them of breaking my device?
Try to see if anything shows up on your usb port list in device manager in Windows. Try updating drivers from Windows Update.

Nothing showing in the USB port list, and all 4 computers have all updates. Also just noted that the charge light comes on, and immediately turns off.

Did you try another cable?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium
Per my opening paragraph, I have tried multiple cables and multiple computers. The same cables work fine on all computers for CDMA Workshop + Droid, and Odin + Samsung Stratosphere (Verizon's Epic 4g).
Yes you did. Sorry. Get a light and magnifying glass and see if something got into your port blocking data connection.

Yep good suggestion. If that isn't the case you should go yell at the Sprint people, they may have messed it up.

Nothing appears out of the ordinary on the contacts. I did use a can of "air" to clean out anything that might not be visible, but also to no avail.
Then they might have loosened it in the repair.

Can't connect epic touch to pc (neither usb storage or download)

It worked about 2 weeks ago however when i try to connect my phone now it wont recognize. Ive tried 3 different cables and two different computers. Ive also reinstalled the drivers many times. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA
OK, basic troubleshooting:
1) Does it charge when you plug in power? (If so the port should be working on the phone.)
2) Does it show anything at all when you plug into the PC?
3) Did you check Device Manager and notice if any devices are disabled or showing as unknown?
1 basic question: what are you running (Stock, custom rom)?

Mb you should start fresh with SFHUB's EL29 w/ root. Probably an issue with AOKP. Or if you don't want to do all that maybe you can try a different kernel and see if that works.
Thats a good idea, but how would you go about doing that without using a pc? I cant get my computer to recognize the phone in download mode

Need help connecting epic 4g to computer.

Please delete the problem has been solved by purchased a Blackberry micro-USB cable. Thank you all.
The epic is very finicky and needs a good cable like a Blackberry cable. Also make sure to use the ports in the rear of a desktop. Look in the port on the phone to make sure the connector is clean.

I'm trying to root my Epic 4g Fc09 phone, but when I plug it in to the computer nothing happens. I have usb debugging on, the cable I know works since I use it for other things, I've tried every usb port, have tried installing/uninstalling the software many times, I put the phone is mass storage. I've tried everything I could think of and still nothing. What can I do to fix this problem? Thanks!

I would also try disabling USB debugging. One of my computers won't connect if it's on. On my other computer it doesn't seem to matter.
Try going to your dial pad and typing ##8778# and make sure your phone is connected via PDA and NOT modem. I had same problem as you and this worked for me.

Try reinstalling the USB drivers and reboot your computer and try the USB ports on the back not front, also can you remember if you had adb debug enabled?
