[Q] Computer won't recognize my SGS2; how do I return to stock?

I can't get USB mounting to work on my linux PC, windows PC, or work windows laptop.
The computer completely fails to recognize the phone, even when I manually tell it to connect as usb storage device.
I've tried three different USB cables.
ODIN mode isn't recognized either, no USB devices are detected and Odin does not display an ID for the phone.
So WTF do I do know? I believe I need to return to stock firmware but I don't know how without using Odin.

You need to download the drivers for your computer in order for it to read your device. I believe its somewhere here in the forums if not Google it. I would post a link but I'm not on my computer

You can download the drivers from the how to root thread in the dev section.

Are you using the original samsung cable? Mine refuses to be recognized by my pc's if it's not the original cable, works fine with the original but the system never picks it up with any others.

Did you try installing Kies SW from the Samsung site? Installing this SW will also install all of the appropriate drivers on your PC.

And?? Solve the problem or what? We been hanging here for years

All of a sudden phone will not connect to pc.

Alright I am running cm9 and have been for weeks with no issues. I got the new galaxy s3 and installed the drivers on my pc to root it and all that. I want to change roms on my E4GT though so I go to plug it in and it charges but will not connect so I figured I had to reinstall the usb drivers for my e4gt so I did and still nothing. I am in no way a newb i have flashed tons of roms and I know I did not do anything wrong. I believe I am just missing a driver. Can someone point me in the right direction? I have the latest version of kies installed and the drivers straight from samsungs website.

Made a little progress but not much. I realized I didnt have usb debugging enabled so I enabled that but now when I plug it in it just says usb debugging enabled instead of asking if I want to mount as storage device I have tried rebooting phone and pc several times. I am running out of ideas.

Did you get the drivers by installing Samsung Kies?
I ran into a similar issue once. I removed all Samsung software with all devices disconnected, did a reboot, re-installed a new copy of Kies, and when I plugged in the device, I opened the notification and told it to skip searching Windows Update.
Also, make sure you are plugging it into a powered USB port, so one on the back of your computer. Sometimes laptops don;t provide enough power either. My girlfriend's OG Epic refused to flash on my MacBook Pro, but worked fine on a desktop.
Latest version of Samsung Kies: http://org.downloadcenter.samsung.com/content/SW/201105/20110512115717796/Kies_2.3.2.12054_20_1.exe

Thank you very much i will give it a try and report back.

Actually no i did not get the drivers by installing kies because I already had it i got the sprint sph d710 usb drivers. Should I uninstall those and just install kies?

Well this is a rediculus problem that I am having now.. I cant install kies because it is saying I am not connected to the internet and I clearly am as I am posting this on the same pc that I am trying to install on.. I have tried rebooting the pc that does nothing.

Alright I got kies to install but still the same thing when I plug the phone in it says usb debugging enabled i really have no idea what is going on.

have you tried different ports on your computer, also have you maybe tried a different computer. If not it could be phone issue I fried my usb board on mine. best bet to try that is to flash another rom if possible and see if it you can connect to computer

I have tried different ports but not a different comp. Ya I am gonna flash a new rom and see if that helps. How could I have fried the usb board though? I havent touched the phone in days since I got the gs3.

Yup Just flashed the new Super Nova rom and now everything is working again, thank you very much for all the help and if anyone hasnt checked out that rom yet they need to its awesome!

[Q] usb damaged?

Hi since the last firmware update on note 2(4.1.2) my usb connection to computer have stopped working i plug it and just charge, odin, kies and windows device manager dont recognize it, i have tried in 3 differents computers with 2 differents cables, also a s3 have worked in all computers with both cables, also have restored to factory settings. The charge speed its the same and phone port seems fine. The phone is 2.5 months old, and wasnt rooted.
Can it be firmware problem or its hardware? did the warranty cover this? Also is someone with the same problem?
Should i try flashing to other rom?(with the recovery mode only)
Thanks and sorry for bad english.

i think its firmware problem, if i go download mode the phone is recognized and can flash it with odin

Try changimg to mass storage (ums) imstead of mtp...

bad USB port??

OK I bought a note 10.1 2014 off Craigslist. .. the thing is pristine. I can not get it to connect to my pc. I installed the drivers, I even tried my Mac. Both jodin and the computer didn't recognize it. I am out of answers, I am worried is a hardware issue. Any suggestions?

did you download Kies 2 on your PC?

Nope I only used Odin
