There does seem to be a more frequent mention of port issues (failures) on our phone recently. In my case it was dust impacted in the port that kept the plug from seating fully. But I work in a paper factory so dust is an ever present enemy. Lol

So I've tried connecting my phone to several computers and they all end up saying that the device is not recognized. Because of this, I can't even odin my phone to stock or anything else. So I can't exactly call sprint or samsung about it. It was working fine up until just now. Any suggestions? Thanks.
Did you download the Samsung driver ?
Simply AOSP 3.1.1

Yes, sounds like your data cable is going bad. Grab another one. Palm Pre or Blackberry has heavy duty cables. Heard there was a good one for $2 on Amazon. Get fresh drivers from Samsung's site or from here:

Hope this helps.
Yea I've gotten the right drivers. Right now, I'm in the process of doing root and flashing roms without a computer... using rom manager. Maybe a new rom will fix it. I'm going to order a new data cable and hope that will work.

I've tried 4 different cables on multiple computers. Mine says USB not recognized as well. How do you root and flash roms with rom manager???
Hey man, same thing was happening to me, I ended up bricking my epic with the stock cord, but I grabbed my brothers evo cord, and worked first try, dump the stock cable definitely.

I used this method
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1062395
Also, instead of using cwm 2.x, you can go the development forum and get the new cwm and flash that instead, just make the necessary adjustments (i.e. when flashing using ROM manager, tap 3.x instead of 2.x etc. etc.)
I am now running gingerbread on here. And I am going to try a new cable that I ordered later this week.

[Q] USB No longer recognised

Hey guys,
Just last week my Nexus stopped connecting to the PC. First it wouldn't even charge or show the phone in explorer.
I tried bending the connector back up and it started charging again. But it still won't connect in explorer.
Drivers shouldn't have changed but I've tried reinstalling and still nothing. Tried different cables, nothing. Tried different ports, nothing.
EDIT: I was trying to avoid it but I've tried a factory reset and reflash of PA2.99... still nothing.
So I'm a bit stuck right now. Anyone have suggestions?
Have tried searching and the like.
On a different note, possibly related. I bought a Nexus 7 today and tried to unlock and root. Fastboot drivers aren't working. Tried several different packages and methods. No dice. Followed instructions etc.
Thanks

linux/windows/mac?
can you see your device in 'fastboot devices'?
can you see your device in 'adb devices', while running android or a custom recovery?
check if there's an updated version of fastboot/adb (not sure what OS you're using)
There seems to be quite a large percentage of these phones where the USB port breaks down. Mine was one of them. I had charging issues and my PC didn't recognize my phone. I still had a guarantee and I had it fixed.

yeah, so it seems. mine still works, but i try to be extra careful with it, not using another person's usb cable (as paranoid as that may sound, i still don't like it :laugh

64bit windows 7.
Tried with the latest adb/fastboot drivers.
Not recognized in either. Doesnt show up in any device manager.
The only way i know the phone has some form of connection is that the charging icon comes on.
Starting to think its the port that's broken some how. Bought the phone online back just after release so I doubt I'd be able to get a replacement.
Using airdroid at the moment to backup and transfer files around but thinking I might need to think about a new phone soon.

I'm sorry to hear that, but IMO, yeah, i think you should start looking for a new phone. Don't keep valuable data on this one.
Same issue here. I just UPSed mine to Samsung under warranty. They better fix it, since it's their hardware issue. The phone support kept telling me they were going to reflash it. Good luck doing that without access to USB.

I was starting to think that would be the case.
Oh well, thanks for the replies everyone. There doesn't seem to be anything that I haven't tried to get it working. Unless I missed something. Doesn't seem like I did though from the replies so far.

[Q] PC will not recognize T-mobile note 2

I know that there are other threads about this issues but so far the responses are useless.
I have tested the Phone in 3 different computers (1 mac/ 2 win) and nothing.
I have used 3 different usb cables and nothing.
I have all the drivers up to date, latest version of kies. (also, I uninstalled Kies and the drives and nothing)
I have plugged another note 2 to the pc using the same usb cable and it is recognized.
help or advise
Thanks.

I had this issue although I am running linux mint 15 ( ubuntu base) and it wouldnt recognize sd or extsd but I switched from stock rom to jedi x9 and all of a sudden it read everything. No problems since
I dont know why JB had to have junk a mtp crap . That one one of the things I really loved about android was the ability to mount as a mass usb storage device.

Another guy just went through this and found out it was the cable... not exactly which one he used to get everything to work though?
Outside of that or the rare manufacturer defect I'd say it has to do with the root process or with qualcomm usb settings
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda app-developers app
Solved, but not really
After trying everything possible, i finally gave up and the only option i had left was to send it back to Samsung.
Their response was that there was and internal defect with my device..... they shipped a new one.
If you are having the same issue and it is not the cable take advantage of your warranty.

I understand your pain bro as I also had the same problem. I took some risk while fixing this, the problem started with me while I was in a humid place so I thought maybe the inside got wet. I opened the screws and blew heat in a moderate level. After that it was okay
What OS you running?

This has happen to me on my rooted Verizion S3 and the rooted Tmobile Note2. This occurs all the time, it occurred whether it was rooted or not. Try uninstalling and re-installing the drivers.

Unknown Device connection to pc

All I want to do is flash back to stock, I feel like I am gonna lose my my mind or go buy a new phone. I have mostly spent a solid 10 hours of time trying to get it to work.
I have been endlessly looking, searching, trying all these different methods to get my ls980 to connect to my pc. So basically everytime I have hooked it up it comes up as unreconized or unknown device doesn't connect.
List of things: Latest LG mobile drivers I have installed them through there exe and tried to install them manually when the ! comes up on the device. I have tried my laptop and my desktop every usb in all of them. I have tried the stock cable, and about 8 other different cables. I have tried it in debugging mode with mtp and without debugging. I tried the support tool as well. Tried composite usb setting.
I guess I am at a loss at this point to what even to try besides sending it to be repaired. Which I don't feel like it's a phone problem and I am just missing something I can't find, I say this because the phone charges perfectly fine and no damage to the usb port at all. If anyone has good information or just a direction I can go will be greatly appericated.

It works just fine, only notable thing that I never figured out was why OTA updates don't ever take, it's still on ZVC. I tried the T-mobile d802 drivers as it was suggested by another post I saw on here.
And you've removed all drivers to android and lg for it.

Correct, I uninstalled them, tried new ones a couple different ways from other posts, and removed them and tried again. Right now I just have them all uninstalled. Trying to figure out if it's something that's stopping it. In error I did forget that a couple times it reconized it but would :fail to start code 10.

OK, that shouldn't be the problem. Zvc yet updates do not take.
Is it rooted?
And it is running on sprint network?

Long story short, it's on ZVC, even with other updates that came up it would never update past it. I took it into sprint several times they didn't know why, I did root it as one guy said that was an option, I used stump root, but then I unrooted as I felt I was getting into something too complicated. It is on the sprint network, about 90% of the time and all the times I tried to update previous to the root/unroot. But I am not trying to update it since the root, mostly trying to restore to stock and start overish.
I'm thinking maybe a virtual machine with Linux might find it. If it can then there is something. And maybe we can redo the partitions and such.

As for driver removal, one thing I remember with the nexus devices. There is wugfresh nrt, nexus root toolkit. Let me see which application or program they loaded for removal before reinstall of drivers. I know they have 2 places you check into.
Dang, I'll have to try to load them via a windows emulator. I'm running Linux right now.

Help - Pixel XL not recognized by any computer, cannot root or get to twrp

I need some help because I am puzzled on what to do. The other night, I tried to change roms on my Pixel XL. I'm used to being able to just flash everything once in whatever order and be fine (it was much simpler years ago when I got started with modding).
Anyways, I flashed FireHound rom and gapps, but forgot the vendor. I flashed twrp and that put me into a bootloop. It would reboot back into recovery each time. So I reflashed Pixel Dust, the rom I was on before, since I didn't have a backup. I forgot to make one. Lol.
Flashed the vendor, rom, and twrp. Rebooted to a clean rom. However, I'm not rooted. I attempt to go back to twrp - and I can't. It goes straight to Android recovery/ no command screen. I can't get back into twrp.
Since this, I downloaded the newest factory image so I could just reflash and start over and fix it. But I cannot connect to any computer. I've tried multiple cables, multiple computers, and each time I get a "USB device not recognized" error. Device manager shows my device as "Unknown USB device (device descriptor request failed)." I've attempted to reinstall/update the USB drivers, windows won't update it because it says it's already up to date. Windows 10 is what I'm using.
So I am stuck. Can anyone help me? Or did I completely screw everything up?
Thanks in advance,
Sam

Do you get any response on the phone when in bootloader and USB cable is plugged in?
Have you checked to make sure that your adb/fastboot programs are at the latest revision?

I've updated the adb/fastboot versions from the sdk. I've updated the USB drivers. Or attempted to. And I get no response from the phone when in any mode.
Got any friends with a Linux machine? It's been ages since I used Windows to talk to my phone. I'll plug it in when I get home, though, to see if my phone is recognized.
