{toubleshooting} when pc doesnot read your device. - Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General

Guys, I know I am gonna get some really bad comments but, I did not find ome of this kind, so I am writing this.
Many of us, may have faced the problem when we connect our device to our PC, it doesnot show up. It does not really matter if its not bricked, but if its bricked amd our PC doesn't read it it really gets our heart to sink.
After my own experiences, I've got some points which would result a positive outcome, maybe. They worked for me, leta see ehat your reaction is.
● Install the latest samsung drivers, Google the links. Its the same as installing kies.
● Disable your antivirus, if yoy have any.
● Your device should be in download mode before connecting it to the pc.
●Try changing ports, if none of them helps.
That was a small peice of my experience. Hope it helps.

ok friend but a little correction not in recovery mode it is download mode and for connecting to pc you don't have to goto download mode if it is for flashing with odin etc then yes
and one more thing usb debugging should be enabled for flashing and other things

Bro, I wrote it in a hurry. Sorry and thanks for correction.
And Its when your device is bricked and the pc doesnot read. Not when your device is running perfectly

KS20 V08h-01-234-15-04-JUNE-27-2007

Hi all,
I'm getting crazy and tired about this KS20.
I tried everything on this mobile but nothing worked and now emergency mode is only mode I can turn on the thing: not even the hard reset works anymore (booting stucks on vodafone logo).
Corona drivers never worked: reading inf file they are for product ID 6061, but my mobile when connected is product ID 6000 and only LGE usb drivers (downloaded thru the LG update agent) are correctly working.
And LGMDP can see the device but not flash procedure can be initialized on it.
Someone could help me with that please?????
Come guys!
Give me suggestions please!
Hello,
Your message is somewhat confusing that we can help you, otherwise there is already post on this type of problem you should first browse the forum looking for info more precise. The first goal is the flash in emergency mode, after everything is possible ...

I searched the forum and googled everything but nothing related to that.
As I wrote in my first post I could not install Corona drivers because, weird enough, device is not recognized by them. I had to install LGE usb drivers thru LG Agent update wizard.
So I can not flash thru LMPD.
Thanks for your reply anyway.
What OS do you use? Do you have administrator rights!
I do have administrator rights.
I do confirm anyway that only LGE USB drivers (they are directly from LG, Product ID 6000) are working fine when in emergency mode.... but they are not Corona drivers (ones signed for Product ID 6061) and LDMP is not working because of that.
Do I have a chance to install rom if I'm not using Corona drivers?
No !
What OS do you use?
Windows xp sp2
I can imagine that none had to deal with this firmware version.
I guess I had to throw away this mobile... such a wate!
Thanks anyway.

Try to gain access to a computer with Windows 7 or Vista, the work better with Corona drivers.
Install the drivers first, restart just to play safe, connect your phone in emergency mode (make sure the green LED is on) and wait for driver detection and installation to finish. If the second driver takes too long to install, then just disconnect the phone and reconnect again. Flash in emergency mode as usual.
In case you have lost your IMEI, use the IMEI restoration tool to generate a new .nv2 file.
Keep updating us on how things work out for you.
If you haven't seen it already, try and have a look at this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=548447
The part about disabling and enabling the LG driver in Device Manager got my computer to recognize the device in emergency mode so I could flash rickou26's newest ROM on there (and by the way, thanks for the ROM, rickou )
Thanks guys ... i will try your suggestions as soon as I'll be at home again (next week)!

I guess this V08h firmware (not seen anywhere on the web) is a lost cause!

bricked s8500, please help me.

Hello, I have bricked my S8500. I can go to the download menu. The problem is that I can't install properly USB drivers , or maybe it is USB cable that is wrong, the USB cable is from nokia and model is : CA101. Even when the phone was working ok computer couldn't see my wave , and I don't know why... So the problem is that when I go to the Download menu my computer detects all the drivers and everything is alright... And when I hit download I get this.
Download Start Ch[0]
BootLoader 1703.9KB OK[0.7s]
Dbl 281.5KB OK[0.8s]
Wait reset !!
Serial port detect error!
And after Wait reset my computer just didn't recognize my phone anymore, and that's why it has been bricked at the begining. Could anyone please help me? I tried different USB drivers, different PC. Nothing helps :{{{ Please guys, help me.
Maybe it is because my USB cable isn't from original wave, or no?

I too use Nokia table to flash my samsung wave. If your phone was able to connect to Kies prior to flashing there should be no issues.
When you flash for 1st time you always get that error. Pls try once again and you shd not face any issues.

No, I wasn't able to connect to kies. I got a USB cable from original xperia x10, still same issue... Can someone tell me what to do? I downloaded a lot of drivers, but maybe there is some special driver? :/
The problem usually goes away for me when flashing from a freshly booted pc, so try restarting one of your computers for flashing and try again.
Have done that too... Any advice? :/
Hello!
First kill all Kies Processes (in the Task Manager)
Second launch Multiloader and try to flash
When it says Serial Error, just do Port Search again, and it should work
That's what I did when I had my Serial Port error ^^

You didn't understand me very well. The problem is that when I hit download my computer suddenly loses USB connection and shows my phone as unknown device, that is the problem why I bricked my phone. Do anyone knows how to make my pc see my samsung wave?

Same thing happened to me. After this, you shouldn't disconnect you wave, but to wait, and click search port again. If there is no port again, tru with different multiloader (mine was v5.65), and there is again same problem, try with another computer with preinstalled USB drivers.
The good thing is that your phone still enters boot mode. If it wasn't the case, then it would be a total brick.
Best regards

No, you didn't understand this flashing process. Most important thing here is to avoid interrupting of connection between computer and phone, even in serial port error. You need to search port again, or to change things that I mentioned above.
You hit download, then bootloader is loaded. It is absolutely normal in this algorithym to reset phone (wait reset). Then our error appears in port error. That is the time when you should click port search again, and when it finds it again (it will) click download button. Thats how it was in my case already 4 times.. Hope I helped.
Best regards
I have told that I reinstalled a lot of drivers and tried different PC's, nothing helps. I tried about 3 or 4 versions of multiloader still same result :/ I don't know what to do anymore... Please any advices? Maybe someone had the same issue?
I don't really know what happened. We switched our cables with my friend again, and I tried to flash with Nokia cable. And everything went okay for the 1 time. No errors, no nothing, no Unknown USB device problem. This is really strange. Thank you for you help friends :}

[Q]USB not working on my GT-N7105

Hi all,
heres my first post on xda and I just wanna to explain my problem.
I am in possession of a GT-N7105, just bought the USB connection worked perfectly but when I tried to install the CF-ROOT and CWM RECOVERY me no more, the PC recognized the phone.
I state that I had installed windows 8.
First of all I installed Samsung KIES and did not recognize him. I uninstalled Kies and installed the drivers using the NOTE 2 TOOLKIT. Even so, nothing to do. The computer can not find the driver for QUALCOMM CDMA TECHNOLOGIES MSM.
I thought it was an error of Windows 8, maybe a bug, so I formatted the system by installing Windows 7 Professional, downloaded NOTE 2 TOOLKIT and installed the drivers without having the phone connected to the PC. When the TOOLKIT required me to connect to the pc NOTE2, I did. But even here, unfortunately, can not find drivers for QUALCOMM CDMA TECHNOLOGIES MSM.
P.S. The phone in DOWNLOAD MODE is recognized by ODIN and I got it back to the SERVICE FIRMWARE but even so the problem is not resolved.
I also tried to change the usb port but nothing.
I tried to install other versions of firmware via odin but nothing. I do not know what to do. Google can not give me a solution and not XDA.
So I decided to write here publicly to expose my problem. I hope someone of you can help me solve this problem that prevents me from installing the CM10.1!
In advance thank you all.

"Method 3 – Ensure you have the right settings
By default my phone was already set to the right settings for USB file transfers so I’ll assume most of these ship with the same configuration, hence why I have this as method 2. I found this on a forum and while it did not work for me, it seems a few other folks declared it a success.
Launch the phone key pad on your note and press *#7284# (don’t forget to start with that * symbol!)
When you press the last pound sign (#) this will bring up an option that will allow you to change your USB connection settings (modem or PDA) – change it to PDA.
At the bottom there is a button that says Qualcomm USB. Click on it.
In that menu click on MTP + ADB option.
Save and reset.
Wait for your phone to restart.
Plug the micro USB cable to the Note 2 and the the other end to your PC or Mac
Let your computer down load and install drivers.
Once installing is done, unplug then replug phone.
There should be a USB symbol on your phone in the status bar - click on it. It should ask if you wsnd to use mtp or ptp. Click MTP
At this point your PC should open the phone’s folders in explorer similar to the screenshot above. "
Hope it helps you. keep the faith!

Downloaded the Samsung Mobile Drivers and used Method 3- WORKED FINALLY!
Holy Toledo, you are confused my friend, if your OP is any indication. Understand that XDA is not a noobs forum. Yes, everyone had to start at the beginning, but if a forum wishes to aim for a clientele with a bit higher level of knowledge/experience, there's nothing wrong with that and they have a right to do so, especially with there being a gazillion other Android forums that do handle noob questions. I suspect you don't realize how many things are wrong with your OP, "wrong" in the sense that they reveal a massive level of confusion on several quite basic concepts. To wit: reinstalling the PC's entire operating system as part of a solution toward hooking up your mobile to it is such ludicrous overkill that it is not a wonder people will read it and run in the other direction. Fast . And that's one example of many I could make. None of this makes you a bad person by the way, just a very inexperienced one. The best advice I can give you is to pay your dues a little longer and post to other forums if you must, and use XDA in the meantime as the best reference you can find anywhere on the net. I don't know if you'll ever get this, but down the road others in your shoes will. And I won't be revisiting this thread, so good luck :good:.

Are you getting a notification/warning message like USB device not recognized?
Try this too... Go to download mode by pressing the keys... Connect cable to your phone but not to pc. When u press volume up to continue. Insert the cable to usb 2.0 port of your computer.
I mean insert the cable in to PC qt the same time when you press Volume Up key when prompted to continue to download mode.
The above method is just for a try.The problem may be with your phone/drivers. Drivers which are essential to detect usb phone flashing parent. Bt kies is enough.
So may be a problem with your download mode.

[Q] Galaxy Ace II cannot be detected by PC (XP/W7/W8)

Hello, I'm the new guy, kind of (I'm new to this forum but somewhat a technological handyman, so to speak).
I had recently obtained a Samsung Galaxy Ace II, everything was going good on the phone, hell, it's what? Two years old now? Anyway, I noticed the immense trouble I've been having trying to get several Windows PCs/laptops to detect anything from the phone, no driver updates, installations, not even from the trustworthy SAMSUNG Kies application. It is becoming a real problem as I really want to keep this phone, root it, installing several ROMs as I go along, but no, the computers won't even allow me to access the contents of my SD card through USB.
(Note: I have manually downloaded and installed SAMSUNG USB drivers and pooft, still nothing!)
I have tried quite a few methods to allow the PCs to establish a connection with the phone e.g. Dialing "*#7284#*, accessing "PhoneUtil", choosing "PDA" as the good mode, even switching to "MODEM" then back to "PDA"; Uninstalling/Reinstalling drivers; Attempting Kies.
I guess I am on the look out for a new-ish phone to replace this, which saddens me as I love being able to root, install various ROMs, Kernels etc, personally I like this phone too, more than my Spica running ICS (couldn't be too hard though, it wasn't stable whatsoever).
If anyone on this board could find a solution to this problem for me, I would be ever so grateful, I don't doubt it though, I love the work of XDA. Thank you.
Turn off the phone with no cable attached, press volume down, home and power at the same time and then volume up to put it in ODIN mode and connect it to the PC (use windows vista or newer so it auto installs the driver) It should install something like Samsung USB serial device. Tell if it works
Do I have to load it into ODIN mode whilst Odin is running on my PC?

For this test you dont need ODIN on the PC. Its only to see if the PC recognizes the phone

I just tested this and it appears not to be working, whatsoever. Is it necessary to have all SAMSUNG USB drivers installed on the PC?
Thank you for the idea, though. I just really want to root/mod my phone, ugh.

Windows should auto install the drivers. Connect the phone to the PC and see in device manager if there is something like an unknoen device or Samsung USB device

Thank you for the help, although my problem is not dealt with still. I have completed the steps that you had suggested, thoroughly and repeatedly, yet there is no hope for a permanent, or even temporary fix for my mobile.
Windows isn't displaying any correlation between my PC and phone, no driver software auto-installs and no sign of the device being located in the Device Manager, not even under an "Unknown device".
Is this a problem for most Ace II devices? Or am I missing something that is too obvious to consider so seriously?
Porobu once told me something like:
1. Uninstall kies and sammy usb drivers
2. Install kies again, it should promt to install USB drivers.
3. Plug in phone to pc in DL mode.
I'm not sure what you mean in your 1st post so im assuming you have yet to try this. Works for me
When do I plug the USB into the phone and boot my phone into download mode? As soon as the drivers are installed via Kies?

After kies installation complete(dont have to open), boot phone to download mode, connect to cable and plug to pc
It sounds like a broken microusb port but try something first.
Download ubuntu or any other live cd linux distro
Boot it on your pc. You dont need to install anything.
Open a terminal
*Plug the phone while it is turned on to the PC
Write in the terminal 'lsusb' without the quotes and press enter
Something like Samsung android device or MTP device should appear.
If it doesnt appear power off the phone and go to odin mode and repeat from the * the steps
