I have had this problem multiple times. Usually disconnecting the device and reconnecting it solves the problem.
I've taken to opening Keis first before plugging in my device so that I can see what's going on.

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.

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

Still no dice. I followed the toolkit to the T, reinstalled the drivers a couple of times too for good measure, and my phone still never registered. This is driving me nuts! My friends phone is popping right up when she connects to the PC but not mine.
Try the assistance chat on Samsung site since you are stock they can help you better with that. It is starting to look like a hardware issue.

Try this. (use the usb cable that came with S3)
Worked for me on my Win7 32bit.
Had similar issues on XP. Different fix for XP.
same issue, although my phone connects to 32-bit version of win 7 at work and not at home 64 bit win 7.... just charges the phone, prompt NEVER comes up
I never get mine to show up on the first try. I usually have to plug it out and back in a few times for it to work. But when i got it working, it only works on the same usb port.
Another thing i did at first to get it to recognize the phone was to use the desk to app.

I kept toying around with this problem. My laptop has winxp. It would beep when I put the cable in, but I was always disappointed by no connection. Then my phone would tell me to try and download Kies. Did not want to do that. But I did. Connection could still not be made.
I stumbled onto a fix. Dunno if it will work for anyone else. I was juggling about 2 dozen things at the time and might have missed a critical step.
I plugged in a USB OTG cable with an 8gb flash drive. The phone recognized it! Even displayed a cute little message in the status bar that USB was connected (instead of MTP). This all lasted a whole 2.7 seconds after hours of searching for solutions.
I tried connecting it to my computer for another try, and I am proud to report that is is working flawlessly for now!!
I have had the same issue off and on. Found somewhere this past week a suggestion to pull the battery in order to cause a hard reboot. It worked. Plan on trying it whenever it happens again.

Rooting without USB

I recently got a used T-Mobile S 2 and just tried to root it. The computer will not see the phone when I hook it up to the USB. I've tried the Odin method and it won't even register it's plugged in. I've installed and reinstalled kies 3 times and I've even tried just installing the drivers by themselves. Is there a way to root the phone without having to use the USB? I'm guessing the USB connector on the phone is bad even though it's charges just fine.

If it charges ur fine, is the device in DL mode? What is the procedure u are using, with this phone the only way to root it is Odin, or maybe adb but I'm not sure, and if u have kies installed on ur pc Odin won't see the phone I repeat remove kies, once ur rooted u will never use it again anyway kies interferes with Odin, make sure u have the OEM USB cord too...

I'm using the volume up+down with the power button to access the download screen with Odin and it never reads that the phone is plugged in. I've uninstalled Kies and still doesn't work. Now I've noticed that I can only go into the e3 recovery mode.

So the phone accesses doenlode mode? Try holding just the vol+vol- buttons and plugging it in to the USB while connected to PC, that should put u in DL mode, if not it might be ur port, have u tried all other ports and different usb wires? Sorry if my questions are trivial but I need all the info if I'm going to help

Yeah I've tried 3 different cables and 2 different computers. I'm leaning towards the USB Jack. I took the phone apart and found corrosion on the board towards the bottom so it looks like the phone has some water damage.

Thats most likely ur culprit then, it may be just corroded enough to not hit the right pins to push data through odin, u could try to replace the USB com, u can get one for around 30bucks online and its an easy fix if u have a lil knowledge, the bad news is without it rooting is next to impossible ...

I mean if u don't want to try the fix u could try rooting it through wireless adb but that's a long shot at best, just started using wireless adb an not even sure if its possible to root it like that but u could look into it...

If flashing clean rom is an option then do it. Flash the rom that you are actually on. Stock rom. Clean install.
Edit : on your last try you made a mistake of flashing other model rom?
