Had some trouble flashing a while back and ever since my computer and 2 others I tried will not see my phone. I can go into odin download mode but odin of course doesn't see it either. I have used different cables, ports etc.. It also charges fine. Got a jig and while it works it didn't fix the problem. Installed and reinstalled drivers, still nothing. Thanks to mobile odin I can still flash...
Anyone have any suggestions?

Do you have the drivers from Kies installed by chance? If not that could be a very good reason it's not seeing the phone.

sounds like something a windows user would say.
i would double check what drivers you're using
I thought kies installs the right drivers. Strange thing is that it used to work fine. Will look for other drivers.

Make sure usb debugging is on

I went through the same problem a couple of weeks ago. No matter which drivers i installed, or computer i plugged the phone into nothing would recognize my epic touch.
The phone is still under warrenty, so i took it to sprint, and they tried plugging it into every computer they have in the store. Nothing... The phone would charge, but that was it. So i got a replacement the next day. Usb works perfect now. However the gps is weaker in this replacement :banghead: ... Ugh.

Ok simple sorry short USB is not working on my device and i'm rooted what do I do? Just take it to sprint? Thanks!

Can you elaborate more on how it's not working? (Doesn't charge, doesn't hook up to PC, etc?) Sounds silly but the answer to this might change what you get back from others as far as advice.
Does not hookup to PC charges fine.

Then your usb cable is working. Do you have the proper drivers installed on your pc? Is it the usb port on the pc? Do the basic trouble shooting.
Its USB port and i'm sure something its wrong with it

My phone thinks it's charging all the time and will randomly connect to USB storage when it's not hooked to a PC. I was on cm9. J flashed el26 with clockwork, restored nandroid , and flashed a pulled stock kernel with stock recovery. Then used z4root apk to remove root. Took it back to Sprint and they ordered me a replacement white phone (mine was black, purchased on launch day.)

Hey guys sorry for the noob question but I'm pretty worried here cus last time this happened to me everything went straight to crap.
I plug my phone in to my laptop and turn on mass storage so I can copy files from my computer to my phone but it keeps saying that my phone malfunctioned and that windows does not recognize it.
Is there something I can do to solve this?
Thanks guys.
Edit: running cyanogen rc1.

Try different cords, a different usb port on your computer and make sure drivers are installed
Also wrong forum this should be in q&a
Drivers are installed unless they were changed in the past few months. I only have the cable it came with and trying different ports gave me the same message.

Samsung cables usually aren't the best try buying an HTC or blackberry cable.
Drivers get corrupted very easily. Delete and let them reinstall with a good cable.

Well topic says it all. I have a phone that has a busted port. I tried to one click restore back to stock when the port died so not only does it have a bad port it failed during flashing so it can't even boot up. What options do I have?

Questions go in Q & A forums.
How do you know port is bad?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app
Depends on where in the process the flash failed, it could be hardbricked or may need to be jtagged to rewrite the bootloader. If it won't boot into download or recovery mode and only has a solid blue led then its toast. Otherwise with a bad port and no OS you dont have many options. I honestly dont even think there's a way to flash something from stock recovery without a USB port or OS to move the zip into cache so stock recovery can flash it. And the only other option is Odin which again without a working USB won't do you any good. And like blues said questions go in Q&A you know Q(uestions)&A(nswers)

Sorry about wrong forum.
The phone can go into recovery and download mode. I am assuming the port is broke BC I can't charge the battery through it and the computer doesn't recognize the phone when plugged in and in download mode.
This is what I feared! So phone is pretty much a paperweight. Arg...
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk
Well I take it back, I think only a couple pins in the port is broken BC I can use the USB jig to get the phone into download mode. So the port is not completely broken. I don't know what pins are used for whatever process but charging and data sync no gooo. I have tried several dif cables including the Samsung one and a blackberry one.

Tried a different usb cable? Maybe the male pins are borked. I had one that got slightly bent and it wouldn't charge for sh*t but would let me transfer files just fine go figure

Sprint will most likely decline you a replacement.

Well then you are screwed. Good luck getting a new phone if $40 is too much to send it out, get it fixed and have it back where you can flash it all day long.
My computer doesn't recognize my phone anymore, charging works fine, phone works fine.
I tried every ROM I could download thru ROM manager and Goo manager, I just couldn't get it to work.
I would try to flash stock through ODIN but the computer doesn't recognize it =/
yes, I tried this on multiple computers.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Did you try another usb cable?

yup, 3 different cables 3 different computers
Is it still under warranty? If so, see if samsung will replace it.

I have been trying to get my phone to come up in windows like it usually does. I plugin the USB and it just sits in charge mode. I reinstalled the Samsung drivers, reset the phone twice, and tried another PC. It simply stopped opening up. How can i fix this problem?

you are right! I didn't notice there was a slit in my USB wire which prevented it from connecting... such a thin one too WOW!
