Hello people, this is my first post and an urgent one at that.
Pretty much what has happened is I have one of the most recent Cyanogen Mod 10 ROMS for my HTC One X and while I was browsing the phone turned off. I tried to turn it on but it refused and I had to do the plug into computer and quickly switch to power supply trick to get it working, before I figured out who to do that I managed to get into the bootloader > CWM and reinstall the ROM. It crashed while installing that ROM causing the problem I believe I have now.
My problem is this:
I have a corrupt ROM and I can't get into my SD card to be able to reinstall it. I have no idea how I can access it, everytime I plug my usb into the pc it detects an unknown device and doesn't go further. I've played around with adb and that won't detect my device either, I need a way to get this working again. All I need is to mount my SD and then I can fix it myself.
Thanks for any help people can contribute.

Can you get into cwm ? If so connect your USB and go to manage storage I think that's what its called and select USB storage and from there does your computer detect it now ?

Hi,
after I upgraded my CM10 FXP 146 to FXP151, my phone isn't recognized by the pc anymore, there is always the problem of "Unknown USB device". What can I do to fix this?
Thx a lot
Try doing a clean install of the rom (FXP151)

The Problem is I can not connect to the phone anymore thus copying the zip-file is impossible...
And what do you mean with "A clean install"?

I am a stupid idiot, sorry for asking, I just had to check one box on my phone... *runningaway*
But thanks for your help.
Hello everyone,
I've searched around the forums but have yet to come across anyone with my exact set of problems.
Phone is a Samsung t999v on the Wind network.
I believe the problem started when a restore was done from a back up with no system information. TWRP tells me there is no OS on the phone.
As there isn't an OS zip file on the hard drive I cannot flash from internal card.
Odin 3.04 fails to add tar file of stock rom after repeated attempts.
drivers will not load with G s3 toolkit allowing phone to be recognized.
Connecting the phone to PC while in TWRP or even in download mode and the PC (Windows 7 ultimate wink wink) will show in devices as a modem but doesn't show up in "my computer". Drivers failed to load is the message after connecting the phone.
Last working OS was the latest AOKP build two.
I hoping someone can help me out. I do feel that this information is probably on here somewhere but I've searched with no luck.
I really trying to get an OS onto this phone and hope I haven't screw it up for a friend of mine. These forums have helped do some good works with my phone and phones of my friends that I guess I ended up thinking I knew more than I did. I should have stock with clockworkr which didn't have the option to back up without system. safer for a dummy.
I appreciate any and all comments.

Did you don't download the drivers from Samsung website?

Yes I can download them from the website but at times the device is still not recognized. For some reason this happens with all my Samsung products. My PC often time does not recognize them. It started months ago with my 10.1 Tab and them my i727 and this t999v. I have to contect the usb and disconnect several time before they'll connect even changing ports. But now they don't connect at all.
Since you have twrp, why don't you just flash a ROM?

I would love to but how do I get the ROM on to the phone? The phone is not being recognized by computer. I have an sd car but my other samsung phone isn't recognized by the pc either.
Uninstall the drivers you have installed (the Samsung ones) and uninstall Kies if you have that installed.
Install the drivers from my signature. They are an older version. I use them because all of the newer ones do exactly what you are describing. The PC won't see the device, etc.
If all else fails buy a card reader. One of the 10+ in 1 sd card readers. Probably should have one of those anyway; just a thought.

Thanks for the advise. I'm going to go grab a micro sd reader now, hopefully. The drivers from your signature didn't fail to install as well. Can anyone think of what the source of the issue is. My drivers failing to install is happening on both of my PC's. I didn't try to install the older drivers on my second pc however.

You can download the ROM on another phone and transfer it to an SD card, after that you can swap it to the one with no os and flash it

The card reader fixed it. Thanks everyone for helping me out. No more lurking for me.
P.S
If anyone has any additional insight into my driver issues I'm all ears.
I have the same problem with my phone being recognized. I will sit there and plug and unplug the cable into the same usb port repeatedly, and eventually it'll be recognized.

Did the drivers fail to install from the installation package or when you plugged the device in after that installation? Also, are you in MTP or PTP mode?

It says MTP mode failed so I guess that's the mode. Both have happened but usually the fail happens after I plug in the device.

I followed all the steps exactly and the problem still persists. KIES fails at installing drivers and same happens when I connect the phone. The only place I can there being an error was that I replaced and copied the files in Windows INF as the new files had the same names as the old ones. As for that everything else I followed the steps exactly with no luck.

Might be worth a shot but it doesn't seem likely that it's a cable issue. The cable is effectively new and PC does recognize that I'm connecting a device.

the rom file you downloaded might be corrupted, so might need to redownload it
and you mentioned that odin didn't recognize your phone.. so did you install samsung driver? and tried different usb port? (note: usb3.0 won't work)
I always had problems with my Galaxy S3 when I had a MacBook Pro, using Windows from Bootcamp helped alot so I would suggest trying that.

I much as I hate to say it but he is right. Android and Mac always seem to have random issues.
You most likely have a bad download. Could be many things that caused it. Wifi or cell data? Losing connection for even a sec can corrupt the download. Check the md5 sum to double check. Also double check antivirus as some like messing with stuff for no good bloody reason lol. Take you time and do the research. You will be back up and running soon.

Can you get back into recovery? If so then re download the ROM of your choice to an SD card. Install it from external storage after fully wiping (cache, dalvik, factory reset) I believe it is either volume up +home+ power. If not try volume down+home+power. Should set you straight

Hi, Mates,
anyone can help to solve my problem ?, the problem is
My Note 2 is not dictating in comptuter but it is charging, I have tried the below solutions but none solved my problems
1. Cables changed - Not dictating
2. Connected in Different PCs (Window 7 & XP) - still not dictating
3. Kies - uninstalled and installed, different type of Samsung to PC software used - still not dictating
4. Flashed with full wipe - all top ROMS for note 2, - not dictating pc in any ROMS.
5. Flashed original stock firmware through ODIN - still not dictating phone with computer
Pls help to me solve my problem for pc connecting, except the above.
please share your knowledge for this matter
I think you mean "detecting", not "dictating".
I'm a little confused though... You say it's not detected on any PC, but you're able to flash with ODIN? If so, then your phone IS being detected or that wouldn't work either...
So what exactly is the problem?
If you flashed a rom through odin there is nothing wrong with your usb, check your drivers in device manager on windows if it was installed properly.

Sorry for misspelled, phone not detecting in computer for normal mode but it is charging. And also download mode it is connected with computer in ODIN and flashed stock firmware as well as different types of recovery (Philz, Cwm, twrp ) . I Think some internal usb settings file erased ?. Is any internal setting in phone except rom cause all the rom I tried. In all rom it is not detecting. No problem in computer because all other Samsung phone works well. I have formated and reinstall all the drive for my computer.
waiting for u r solution

Well, I was going to suggest that you have a USB driver conflict, but if you reinstalled Windows, that's less likely.
When you reinstalled, did you install ANY other USB drivers first? What version of Windows are you running? Is it up upgrade install, or clean?

OK, that's a little clearer. So your phone won't detect in any computer you've tried, but others do? Are you using the same cable for all?
Sounds to me like you might have a problem with the USB port that just isn't affected by download mode.
