Hi to all,
i wanted to flash my radio rom to 1.50 but each time i put pda to boot mode it is always writen Serial not USB. I tried to flash it from SD card but it does flashing but when i reboot it is still old radio rom. Then i changed usb cabel and in boot mode it gives me USB connection.
I bought new one (1.8m long and tried it, again it gives me Serial. Tried several cables same story. Is there difference in usb cables?
So if you can not do hardspl, if it gives you error 260 and no usb in white part of boot screen just try other usb cable.

I read guides.There is nothing ther about usb cable. My point was that it works with some cables and with some it doesn't.

You don't happen to use Vista, do you? In case you do, read here!
...and I've told you to read the guides because flashing from the SD Card works in every case, if you make the procedure right (have HardSPL installed and you do it the way described here.)

this is not my first time to flash pda and i am not using vista.
It was my experience that wile i was in bootstarp screen (tricolor screen) while changeing several usb cables, with 3-4 of them it gave me only Serial connection but whith only with one of them it gave me USB connection on white screen and i could flash radio rom. Strange thing is thaht i can do synchromization with all of them. I tried it also on other computer with XP.
Maybe is something with my pda.
Oh yes i ahave hardspl 1.30.

OliPro 1.30 has been reported with some issues, maybe that's why you can not flash with SD Card. I'd say to install Des' Crash Proof SPL but then you can not flash because of USB issue.
I have similar problem, need to first put the pda in booloader mode.
After that my usb connection is somehow stalled and the pda shows a serial connection.
Then i either have to reboot the computer or use another usb bus, to get the pda connected with usb.. Has nothing to do with the cables, but the fact windows is winblows.... (xp in my case).
Perhaps this is another issue tho..

I can do flash with one cable it is working fine.
Why do you recommend Des' Crash Proof SPL. What is difference from hardspl? Except maybe less issues ?
this made my day and allowed me to flash in vista (twice) without breaking a sweat!

I've reading some FAQs and Wiki articles before make this question.
Last weekend my Kaiser crashed into the floor (a very very very soft fall) and the battery jumped out the phone.
I put the battery, and in the first boot.... Ooops!! Tricolor screen showing:
"Hardspl 3.29
Serial "
There is a quick splash screen showing "No image file".
I've tried to boot several times, and i get into OS once, but the pda works so slow.
Solutions that i've tried:
a) MMTY prompt. Boot command doesn't work and i dont know the "boot command" for Hardspl 3.29. Anyway, i dont want to mess with MMTY and get a brick...
b) When i get into OS i tried to connect via Activesync (to reflash Hardspl) but...
After JumpSPL I get "Jump Tricolor Screen"
I unplug usb, uncheck "USB Connections", plug USB... but KaiserKustomRuu doesnt work! It closes after executing it. (The day that i flashed hardspl 3.29 i did it the same way, and everything went ok)
What can i do?
Please help!!!
(I dont care loosing data, i only want recover the pda)
EDIT:
Hi there.
Finally i did this:
- Re-flash HardSPL 3.29 (via MicroSD)
After that, OS always booted (WM 6.0 Official HTC)
However, Activesync does not work. When i plug the usb cable, the battery begins charging and activesync runs on PDA and Pc, but PC says that connection is not possible. I've tried with 2 or 3 computers with same results.
(Allow usb connections is marked)
Also, all the OS gets so so so slow when usb cable is plugged.
Then i did:
- Hard Reset to back default WM 6.0 official ROM
* No way. ActiveSync does not connect.
- Flashing a cooked Rom (WM 6.5 spanish) and a new radio (from 1.27.12.32 that i always used with WM6.0 to 1.70.19.09)
* No way. No i have Hardspl 3.29, WM 6.5 spanish cooked rom, and 1.70.19.09 radio. Everything seems to be ok...except for Activesync.
Please...help....
EDIT 2:
Ok.... i've tried to access MTTY prompt but it was impossible.
When i plug the USB cable i get an error in the computer (device not recognized), but PDA screen changes between "serial" and "usb".
After 20 or more tries i got into MTTY prompt, but that was the last time until now.
So... i think that mi usb port is broken ( is not the cable or the computer, i used some cables and computers)
I've tried to move the usb connectors with a pin, slowly, and i have cleaned evertything, but nothing happens.
What may i do?
How can i check my flash/nand to check errors? Of course, i need to check it but not using USB !
USB port is charging the battery, and windows attempts to install the device (Windows mobile device, as says) but the installation is not finished.
So you are unable to use activsync at all on your phone?

Yes, i am unable to use activesync from OS.

UPDATED the first post.
Is my PDA - USB port broken?
I hate to tell you this.. But a work around could be to Activesync via Bluetooth... Now a days you can get a USB Bluetooth dongle for $5 or sell... My stepsons USB port is so broke that he has 3 batteries and a stand alone battery charger.. he jsut swaps batteries when it dies... He syncs via bluetooth and has no problems....
So, once you have read the entire post...
Do you think in a software or an hardware problem?
Bluetooth sync is a good option, but i would like to investigate a little.
I've reflashed HardSPL, ROM and RADIO but i think that there are more bad data sectors.
How can i check my flash/nand to check errors? Of course, i need to check it but not using USB !
USB port is charging the battery, and windows attempts to install the device (Windows mobile device, as says) but the installation is not finished.
Thanks!!
Try flashing an Android ROM
Hi,
I had the same problem on my phone for about 6 months. I completely gave up on it. A few days ago I successfully flashed an Android ROM to NAND but ended up flashing back to WinMo. Surprisingly my USB activesync / headset adapter started working again!!
I'd give it a shot if I were you. Worked for me

hi guys/gals
I'm trying to flash a rom onto my phone but as it gets to the stage where the multi colour screen pops up windows tell me that its an unrecognised device
'the device has malfunctioned and windows does not recognise it'
where the phone usually displays 'usb' is just blank, it changes to serial when the cables disconnected but when reconnected it remains as serial.
I've flashed my phone before with out any issues and I've tried to flash it via the sd card but I'm not 100% sure that I'm doing it correctly, I've renamed the file to Blacimg.nbh booted the phone into the colour screen thing and thats as far as it goes, I think because it doesn't display 'usb' I can't get any further.
I've tried to do it on several machines and get the same problem
are there any other ways I can flash my phone that dont require the cable as I'm fairly sure that theres a problem with the phone.
more info:
rom I have at the moment: Kwbr Topix 2.6.1
rom I am trying to install: Xannytech ROM Grid LEO 1.5
I have tried to update the drivers - it says the file doesn't have any information about my device.
active sync works, I can transfer files and the phone is recognised in device manager just not while in the colour screen mode
just to clarify, I'm looking for a way to install a rom that doesn't require the 'usb' screen or a solution to the problem of the missing usb screen would be nice too.
I have searched but I couldn't find anything relevant.
thanks in advance.

If you had searched you would have realised that most chef's (including kwbr) provide instructions on how to flash roms using 2 different methods. USB or SD Card.
I just taken about 20 seconds to locate one of Kwbr's rom threads and on his 2nd post he actually states how to flash using SD Card method.
i.e.
Q: I am having problems flashing the rom with CustomRUU.exe. Can I flash in another way?
You can try the official RUU for Blackstone to flash. Also flashing from SD card is an option. To flash from SD just rename ruu_signed.nbh to BLACIMG.nbh, copy it to the root of your SD card, and flash the rom from the tri-color screen by pressing the power button.

Hi!
After searching the forums for a while I did not find a thread exactly matching my problem, so if I've overseen it, please just point me there.
To my problem:
I did a very stupid mistake, flashing a new custom ROM with a different kernel (as usual, cooked in Docs Kitchen) without converting back the lagfix. So I ended up with a non-booting phone - so far, so bad. Note to myself: Never flash a phone during the carnival weekend again.
So I booted into download mode and tried to recover it via Odin, but here I got my really bad surprise: USB device is not recognized, thus I Odin does not see the phone.
I tried 4 different PCs with Win7 or XP, a Linux desktop and a Macbook. I also tried 5 different USB cables (they all work with other smartphones like the Desire and the HD2). Wherever I stick the phone in, it is not recognized (code 10/code 43 in Win7). I used the stand-alone-drivers from the sticky forum thread here, and also most recent Kies versions, always the same: USB device not recognized.
Does anybody have an idea how to revive the USB connectivity? I'm almost at the point to send it in for repairs...
Or can someone elaborate how I could have killed USB with corrupting the ROM? I've to admit I do not really understand how these two are connected.

Hi Amokbunny
You get into download mode but the PC won't recognize the phone?
That's messy and I can think of nothing that could have done that. you did not change the bootloader did you (flashed a full samsung ROM containing a bootloader, for example VJ1)?
If not I guess it's a hardware issue.
formatted to ext4 without any backup
I did a very stupid mistake too. Got darky's rom 9.3., installed i, everything worked great(really awesome thing), then i wnt to recovry mode and entered tthe speedmod and it showed mr that my phone has rtf files system not EXT4 as it should be, thou i installed the speed mode. then i chose to repartition it to ext4 but i didn't choose the backup. Just clicked to format the sd. It did formatted to EXT4, rebooted, i saw the darky's rom logo and the the phone vibrated and the logog of the droid just flashed. I tried to enter recovery mode-didn't load. Started the download mode connexted to pc used ODIN 1.7 with PDA I9000XXJPY.tar, MODEM I9000XXJPY.tar, GT-I9000-CSC-MULTI-OXAJPY-LITE.tar s1_odin_20100512.pit.
The phone has started, appeared teh stok galaxy s logo and it's just flashing. Help needed. Don,t know what to do know. I have galayx s i9000 european version.
somehow i've managed to install new firmare 2.2.1 /I9000XXJPY-baseband /2.6.32.9 [email protected] #1-kernel version, but z4root isn't working. When i start permanent root the programm ends on aquiring root shell, the debug mode is on
Got it all running, installed Darky's rom 9.3. Thanks anyway.

Yep, I can boot into download and recovery modes, but that's it.
The only apparent change in the new custom ROM was the kernel.
I also cannot really access my external SD card (it shows me some phantom files, but not the actual content of the SD), otherwise I'd try to recover it this way.
I agree with the hardware issue, if it wouldn't have coincided with the flash procedure...anyway, I think I'll send it in for repairs if I don't get it to run on this sunday.
I have the exact same problem, except that I can access my external SD. I got the problem after upgrading to Darkys Rom 9.3 the usual way, but switched from Speedmod to Voodoo. After that update, my USB didn't work anymore.
I can't get neither Xp or Win 7 to recognize my phone. USB device not recognized, and tried all the tricks. Reinstalling Kies and drivers, switching between the different modes (storage, kies media, ask, debug...) But still no USB connection.
I updated to darkys 9.5 (transferring the rom using bluetooth, and updating using CWM), but still it doesn't work.
Can get it into download mode, but still can't connect using USB and Odin.
HELP!
Did anybody ever find a solution for this?
European version of I9000, bought in Denmark. No Simlock
Same thing here after installing JV1 + Ultibread Rom 1.4... Still no solution
*shameless push*
Any solution here? I dont have that problem, but it sounds too scary to not have a working solution :S
Same prob here! Any news?
Any solution? I have the same problem.
same problem my phone is bricked while flashing a stock rom the windows disconnected the phone while flashing
ended with device not recognized even in download mode

But if you are in download mode on your fone you'd rather should have a look at your configuration on the computer. Because the fone still can be flashed if the symbol for download still appears.
- Kies is shut down while ODIN is active?
- latest Samsung USB driver installed?
- Odin started with Admin?
Btw. did you try to get into recovery mode? Maybe this also still is working as the partition is quite small and chance high that it was flashed w/o faults. So you may be able to flash a zipped ROM rather than a tarball for Odin.
USB Not working when Phone plugged in... try these..
Unplug Device from PC..
Windows go to Device Manager...
Scroll down to Universal serial bus Controllers
Start with the top one and work your way down ..uninstall them all..
When done reboot Computer and let it install them all.. then try again
2.Settings --> USB Setings (under wireless & network may differ depending on Rom used) --> Try other settings Mass storage
3.Different USB ports on PC
4.Uninstall KIES from PC (reboot PC to take effect) and Reboot and just install samsung USB drivers....
5.Using windows type in msconfig in Start>Run box... windows will pop up and untick KIES from STARTUP TAB
Apply to take effect and restart machine.. try using ODIN to Flash ROM
I myself only use the Samsung USB drivers and ODIN never use KIES
or ...Check my signature and try SD formatter
This weekend I was away from home and needed to book some plane tickets. So I connected my milestone (running CM7 Nightly) to a laptop(Windows 7 32 bit) via USB.
But when I plugged in the USB cable into the laptop, when the drivers were being installed there was an error (there was a red x next to 1 of the options, can't remember the exact option but I think it had something to do with Motorola networking?).
Anyway, I downloaded the latest Motorola drivers (same 1 I used when rooting) via my phone and installed it on the laptop, but I was still unable to connect using the dial up connection I created. Everytime I tried to connect I received error 632 (I think it means modem not detected)
I had to flash the phone back to stock Froyo and then it installed properly and I was able to use the phone as a modem on the laptop.
Has anyone else experienced this and is there a solution?
There's a thread for USB tethering using CM7: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1257115
