It's been 2 weeks now -- I've tried everything:
Use TW instead of Launcher Pro (do I have to uninstall launcher pro???)
Uninstall / Reinstall software & drivers
I have done almost everything... nothing works.
When I connect the USB, and I select Keis, the phone just goes black, then pops up the USB picture, goes black, then pops up the USB picture, over and over
I would give $10 paypal to anyone who can get my Keis working.
How else am I gonna be able to update my phone to the new firm ware? to Froyo?
I'm using Bell i9000m
The only thing that works for me is to reboot the phone (holding the power button to untill it restarts) and then after the phone is fully functional/loaded put in the usb and choose kies.. and then mine connects perfectly..
Hope this helps!
-TB-
Use TWLauncher no need to uninstall LP
Turn OFF Bluetooth and Sync. I find this easiest if I put the power widget on the desktop.
Open Kies and plug in USB
This is how I do it and it works every time.
I've tried everything. I'm dieing over here. If I can't connect to Keis, how the hell am I gonna get an updated firm ware ? or Froyo when it comes out ?
Im screwed.
windows 7 64 bit btw
Backup your internal SD card(put the phone in mass storage mode or something like that)
Remove your external SD card if any.
Unmount your internal SD card and format it.
Reboot and try connecting ti to Kies.
It's really weird, and I don't know why it works, but that's the fix that I've seen around and it worked for me.

Froyo 2.2 will probably be made available for installing via ODIN from here or Samsung-firmwares.com
I don't think KIES is that urgent or important/needed.
Dgovil's method works. Try disabling your launcher first just run stock.if this fails you back up your internal sd, unmount and format note this deletes your sd data

so i was flashing my phone and i decided to delete some things off of my sd card and i accidently deleted my backup files. SOO when i encountered a rom issue i went into twrp and wiped cache and system and all that good stuff and when i went to recover i saw i had no nandroid file to restore to and i had no roms to install. so i logged onto my pc and downloaded a rom and went to mount the phone to the pc and it just says device not recognized ( and yes i have the kies program installed) so i figured i would just take out the sd card load the rom onto it and install that way. when i put the sd card back in it wont go into it on the install section. so i used the file explorer to move the rom over to internal storage and when i try to flash it there i get a failed error saying it cant open the zip (i downloaded and tried this more than once). SOO i figured id go to odin for my last resort (as some of us has done before) and when i try to get my phone into download mode i never get the warning screen. i take the battery out,hold the volume up and down button and plug in the mini part of the usb and the phone just vibrates.
and help/ ideas? im giving up for now, gotta get some sleep before i go to work lol. this thing is driving me nuts!
problem solved. unnecessary steps taken...plenty. hours of sleep lost....not much (i hardley sleep anyway), time wasted...to dam long!
used file explorer from twrp to manually change permissions to 0755 hit install and everything is fine. DRRR dont i feel smart now :silly:
sleep deprivation causes missed steps in trouble shooting!!!!!!
I hate to be that guy, but i have tried searching the forums and have had no luck...
Basically while flashing CM10 I screwed up and installed the wrong Gapps pack (never trusting goo manager again)
I got stuck in an endless boot cycle (saying 'installer has stopped' on boot, not allowing any actions)
I did a wipe before attempting to restore... and then my backup was gone.
So now I'm stuck with either attempting to restore to stock (which I'm ok with, I think this is not really my game) or going to a custom rom.
But right now I have no OS installed and my computer will not recognize the device. I have tried kies, installing / reinstalling sammy drivers, and i still can't get anything to appear except for a cd drive.
I have tried on windows xp pro, xp media edition, windows 7 home, same result.
I can still boot into download mode and recovery (i have TWRP as my recovery)
but again, i somehow wiped my backup, i can't get my computer to recognize i have a phone, and i don't have access to an SD card port.
If I get an micro sd card reader, would that give me the ability to copy the rom zip file?
I would really appreciate any advice anyone can give me.
Help! is there any way to fix my phone?
EDIT: MY PROBLEM WAS I had just recently installed a 64gb microsd card, and it was not formatted correctly... ended up getting the correct version of Gapps and a stable version of cyanogenmod (10.1) and installing them onto my girlfriends SD card (which was only 32gb and formatted correctly). I went to walmart and got a SD card to USB adapter for $8, loaded the zips onto that, and flashed them very quickly and easily through TWRP.
Not sure if it makes a difference but I flashed CM FIRST by itself, then after that booted up all nice and happy I went back and flashed Gapps (because without google what are you supposed to do? use it as a phone!? )
and everything installed perfectly and without a hitch.
Thanks for the quick help everyone!

Your not bricked at all, you just have no os.
In twrp make sure your looking at the external sd card foe your backup. And yes if you can get a micro sd card reader/adapter, you should be able to copy a rom file to it.

Re: [Q] soft bricked, but not able to connect to computer
You could also just put the sdcard in another phone and access it on your computer through THAT one
But yeah, as said above, you just have no OS.

Re: [Q] soft bricked, but not able to connect to computer
Thanks guys. I ended up using an SD card adapter, and loading the zip onto that.
Feel kinda silly for not thinking of that before.
Finally got CyanogenMod to load though!I tried it before only to get that installer has stopped error.

Help on the way
THERE IS 2 WAYS TO FIX IT.
1. POWER OFF THE DEVICE ONCE IT IS POWERED OFF FULLY HOLD THE BACK BUTTON WHILE HOLDING IT PLUG IN USB CABLE AND FLASH DOOMKERNAL AND THEN I RECOMMEND YOU SHOULD PUT DONUT HD ON THE SD CARD THEN. UNPLUG USB AND THEN POWER ON DEVICE ONCE YOU FEEL IT VIBRATE RAPIDLY PRESS BACK BUTTON YOU SHOULD BE ON CWM THEN INSTALL ROM AND YOUR SET.
2.DOWNLOAD Sony PC Companion AND THEN CONNECT PHONE THEN GO ON REPAIR PHONE AND IT WILL TELL YOU THE REST.
NOTE: DO NOT TRY TO INSTALL NO MORE CM IT HAPPENED TO ME ONCE THE WHOLE PHONE DIDN'T WORK GOT STUCK ON BOOTCYCLE
ANOTHER NOTE: IF WIFI DOSEN'T WORK JUST DOWNLOAD WIFI MODULS HERE
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1253853 JUST SCROLL DOWN UNTIL IT LOOKS LIKES YOU FIND THE WORD NEW.
OVERCLOCK MAY NOT WORK. RECOMMENDED IS NOT CLOCKED.
3.I RECOMMEND REPAIR IT WITH SONY PC Companion THEN ROOT IT AFTER ROOT JUST PUT CWM AND THEN PUT DOOMKERNAL AFTER THAT FLASH DOOMKERNAL THEN GO INTO CWM AND THEN PUT DONUT HD INSIDE AND YOUR SET.

Nice, are you all good then? If you are, put "SOLVED" in the title please
And dont worry about feeling silly, everything is a learning process and people tend to not think straight when they are in a panic

I've been searching since yesterday since and have yet to see this issue. I flashed a ROM yesterday and now I can't copy to SD or internal. I don't even remember which ROM caused it I restored my backup before that happened and still can't copy. I can download a ROM on the phone and install it I just can't copy anything when connected to a PC. I've tried on Win7 and Win8 with no luck. I've formatted SD, tried a different cable, uninstalled/re-installed drivers and USB debugging is selected. I can copy from the phone to the computer but not from computer to phone. The only thing I can think of is flash back to stock and re-root and see if that fixes it.
This is the error I get when attempting to copy
The device has either stopped responding or has been disconnected

or you can also try different usb ports and if that doesn't work try running all the same troubleshooting steps on a different pc and see if there's any difference.

Try using the drivers from my signature on your Win7 machine.
Thanks for the suggestions :highfive:
I seem to have fixed it. I used the Samsung Galaxy S3 toolkit (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1746682)
and just did the root option (even though it was rooted already) and after that I was able to copy again There are still a couple of ROM zip files I couldn't copy so I am assuming that the files may be corrupted or something. I haven't been able to re-download them again to test out that theory though.
i wanted to install new stock rom from here but fastboot wont install it so i went to twrp and tried to flash it from there but during flashing twrp just rebooted itself and saying installation wasnt sucessful, i figured this is due to S-On but prior to flashing it i did possibly the stupidest thing, i went to ADVANCED WIPE and wiped every option on the list(dalvik,system,data,internal storage,cache) except for micro sdcard ofcourse. i then went to FIX PERMISSIONS and stupidly select the ALSO FIX SELINUX CONTEXTS. when those done i then went and install another image which is on the sdcard that i downloaded from here E9pw_Android5.0_Sense70_E1.zip . the installation went well and rebooted itself and got to the homescreen and whatnot. but the troubles came when i tried to install apps from playstore and it gave me all kind of errors known to man, even going into file manager to access the internal storage gave me problem it says something along ACCESS IS DENIED or CANT ACESSS EMULATED OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT. when i opened chrome to download something the browser just crashed because apparently it wont able to access the emulated storage. yeah i fcked up badly here. dont know whatelse to do.
see below of the files that i currently have in my external microsd card:
E9pw_Android5.0_Sense70_E1.zip -WORKS
open gapps arm64 android 5.0 stock
RUU 0PJXIMG_A55ML_DTUL_L50_SENSE70_hTC_Asia_WWE_1.35.7 07.2 - DONT WORK

Thanks!
Got it fixed! by going to TWRP-->WIPE-->FORMAT DATA and reinstall the ROM. if anybody experiencing the same problem please do the same.
