I've found that anytime I use an i9000 ROM I have a painfully slow USB connection relative to what I get with a Captivate ROM.
I tried a quick search but nothing came up for me. It's almost as if with i9000 it defaults to USB 1.0.
Wondering if I should try installing Kies drivers or soemthing.... I dunno... hoping somebody came up with a solution already...
Pretty important cause for those that flash often don't want to spend 8 hours transferring music back to the internal SD drive.
USB 1.0?? :S
I think a have a similar problem. Each time I connect my Galaxy S on my computer it shows the message that my device can perform faster...as if my Galaxy is running with USB 1.0.
I've used to different cables, different USB ports...and nothing happens.
Using the same USB cable, with another device, it do not shows the same message so I'm thinking it might be a problem with my Galaxy S or with the USB drivers that I’m using.
I had been using KIES but has the same problem...tried to install the driver aside KIES and the same result...I did a little research and it seems that I’m the only one with this problem...
I appreciate any help

Just a quick question- I have a Captivate that will charge when plugged in via USB but there is no data connection. The phone doesnt recognize that its plugged in to a computer, and therefore despite being able to boot into download and recovery mode, I cannot use ODIN to do anything. Clockwork wont work either due being on 2.2.
Ive read some other threads where most concluded it is more or less a hardware failure. Im coming to that conclusion myself, but wanted to check with you guys first. The audio jack did the same thing for a couple days-- it wouldn't work when plugged in. It did come back on its own, though Im not sure why.
Im running Cognition 2.2beta3, and cannot flash back to a stock rom nor to any other rom due to the lack of being able to use ODIN.
Is there any other way to flash back without ODIN? Also, if this is indeed a hardware failure- how can I go about getting it fixed? I traded for it on craigslist for an iPhone 4 so I didnt get it direct from AT&T. It did work for the first couple months.
Thanks in advance for your help!
Do you have USB debugging enabled (Settings-Applications-Development)?
If so, you won't get the connection choice screen when you plug in your USB. You can either disconnect USB debugging to get the choice screen, or leave USB debugging enabled and click on the "Select to copy files" choice in notifications.
I have tried with USB debugging on and off, and in various USB modes. None work, as the Captivate doesnt even acknowledge theres a data connection that has been made.
It worked in the past in all modes... debugging with the option to mount the drive, mass storage, Kies, and the media mode. No dice at the moment. Tried a hard reset today... nothing.
Looks like it could be a hardware issue-- just weird as the audio jack had the same issue and seemed to (randomly) resolve itself. Thanks for the suggestion! Any other ideas?

I had the exact same issue as you few days ago. One forum member recommended to me to uninstall the Samsung USB driver and reinstalling it again. It worked as soon as I did this. You should give it a try.
I had a similar issue when performing a master clear and flashing JI6. I am on windows 7, and I noticed that a different driver is needed to use Odin in download mode. I had been sideloading apps as well as transferring files with the stock driver from samsung, but my computer still wouldnt recognize the phone when in download mode. The solution was quite simple, when entering download mode my computer gave me the "driver not found" messege. I just let Windows Update find the right one for me (not sure if its generic or not) and everything worked fine after that. Hope this was relevant to your issue.
And I guess you can't do the phone off, open Odin, plug in USB with vol up/down pressed, right?
Not sure if this will help, but I bought a second USB cable to carry in my laptop case. If I use it I can charge the phone but cannot connect it to a PC. If I use the one that came with the phone it works fine.
I have actually tried some other cables and they have issues too. They all have a larger cable housing towards the end that plugs into the phone, where the one that comes with the phone is slimmer.
A friend at work as a Fascinate and he has the same issue, we suspect that the increased size is keeping the usb from connecting all the way in the phone.
Ive tried different computers and different cables, as well as different drivers. Ive used 64bit systems and 32bit systems... XP and Vista.
The phone itself goes into download mode, though I have to go through the terminal and use 'reboot download'. I cant use command line on the computer as it doesnt find the device... the phone never is identified to it. It just charges.
Is there any way to perform the commands that ODIN does without actually using ODIN? If nothing else, Id like to flash back to JF6 and be able to use the OTA updates. At this point, Im stuck till clockwordmod works with 2.2.
I experienced the same thing. My Captivate would charge, but it couldn't connect to any of three computers (WinXP w/drivers, Mac OS X, and Linux) with either of two micro usb cables I had. I would always get a USB error in some form.
I was on cog 2.1, and was able to roll back to the JH7 OTA update without ODIN. Afterward I brought it to an ATT Tech Center and convinced them it was a hardware failure.
I got a warranty replacement, and it didn't work either.
It turned out to be bad micro usb cables. One was the original Samsung cable, but it was loose, there was plenty of play and wiggle in the sockets of both phones.
The best micro usb cable I've found is from a Kindle. It has a a larger plastic base than the stock from Samsung, but critically it has a longer connector. There's a solid click when connected and absolutely no play or wiggle possible. It works every time.
I don't know if you can restore from 2.2 to JH7 without ODIN. Now that we have 2e Recovery on Froyo (in Cog 2.2 BETA6), could you use Clockwork Mod (Rom Manager) to flash designgear's JH7 OTA ROM?
Try some alternate micro USB cables, you might be surprised!
Im having the same issue, was there any resolution to this from the OP??
I suspect hardware also, and Ive got another Micro USB on order from Amazon and will prob buy one from a store tomorrow also.
the stock cable is horrible, I bought a nice charger the other day and it has a nice click and stay, and since I plugged it in to the new charger it no longer shows up on any computer with the stock cable. Im wondering if the new charger with a tad larger connector spread the connectors just a tad too far for the stock cord.
I tried everything as well, I hard rebooted, put into recovery mode and even deleted all my user data to try and see if there was some software that was blinding the computer to the connection... no luck
Ill let you know what I find.
Same issue here. Has anyone had any luck with a new usb cable? Luckily, I can transfer files from my computer via bluetooth for now, but it takes forever!
Hello,
I know that there are countless other threads about this issue all over the Internet, but many of them are from a year ago and none of them have helped me yet.
I've installed every driver recommended from these threads, I've restarted my phone, my computer(s), tried a different cable, USB Debugging on and off, reformatted the internal SD card, and still no luck. Kies doesn't recognize my phone. It doesn't show up in device manager or as an extra drive.
Using TW Launcher. I plug it in, select Mass Storage, hit "Connect USB Storage." It says that USB storage is in use. Yet there is no activity on my PC to indicate as such.
I can't get my Captivate to connect to a computer.
It used to connect just fine up until I upgraded to Froyo.
Is my phone a hopeless case that needs replacing, or am I missing something along the way here? I'd love to root it or at least roll back to 2.1 somehow.
Thanks so much for looking and for any help.
Reboot into download and connect to computer, see if that works.

I had a similar problem and it was definitely a hardware problem. At first it was recognized but then it would only charge via the pc - multiple windows 7 computers would not recognize it. However, a few times it would start installing and then say "disconnected" or something like that. One of those times that I "jiggled" the connector on the phone, it started installing the driver and I didn't touch it and it finished and worked. I disconnected and reconnected and nothing again... I got another refurb and no problems at all.
Well I'll try a few more times. Just glad the Thrill is almost out and I can enjoy that one for 10 months before something better comes along
Thanks for the help
When I try to connect to the computer I get nothing, just a beep on the phone, I was getting an error and now I don't even get that on my computer. (USB still charges the phone though)
I tried 2 different cables, 2 different computers and 4 different operating systems, Windows based. And lots of Captivate USB drivers.
I have tried Kies, odin one click, mass storage, debugging on, off, everything I can think off.
I tried 2 different Roms, (Apex 7 and 10.1) 3 different kernels and 6 or more factory resets. MTP is listed under apps but when I plug in the USB cable I don't see it under running tasks.
I have a Captivate I896 running Gingerbread I9000 software. I would like to go back to stock but without USB I can not run the software, (computer does not see Captive in download mode or in recovery mode.)
Would anyone know how to troubleshoot this, is there a way to debug the software and see just what is happening on the phone.
Dam you have tried a lot of things... lol
I have a suggestion... have you try 'adb'?
Let me see If understand right...the problem is that ODIN is not recognizing your device and you want to go back to stuck? you don't specify if you can transfer files between your computer and phone...and also if you can connect with 'adb'.
Probably was you micro usb on your phone got damage...have you been experimenting with a jig?
ya I have tried adb and when I type in adb shell I get a response of no device found. and no the only thing that went in to the usb connector ever, was the Samsung usb micro cable. I think I will take it to Samsung next week if I can find the service center around me, I think it is still under warranty.
Check to make sure the cables you're trying are data/charging cables. My stock cable went out so I found one I had in the closet. The one I found would charge but no data passed (ie. PC wouldn't see it).
Hi everybody, my problem is simple and dumb... i bought a Gtab 8.9 for Christmas, it's working fine and i'm very satisfied, but i'm stuck with the default firmware, honeycomb 3.1, and sometimes it kinda freezes, and i wanted to try a newer, 3.2 or maybe ICS firmware... and before flashing some mod i would like to see if there's any available from kies... well, it's been more than a month and i can't seem to be able to properly connect it to my pc/laptop with kies and the usb cable... i tried re-installing several times kies, did the connection error/unplug/uninstall drivers/reinstall driver stuff countless times on both desktop and laptop, but kies always ends up saying "device error-unplug" or "device error-reboot"... kies wireless works fine but i can't search for new firmwares, the cable works fine and i can charge and/or transfer files in a breeze... i looked for some usb settings on the tab but found nothing... what am i missing? every time i plug the tab it goes straight on autoplay, and kies won't recognize it... if i turn it off and plug it kies doesn't find it either, nothing changes.... can anyone help?

I don't remember too well, but have you checked the USB settings at the (I think) Applications section at Settings? Anyways, Kies...well, I don't expect too much from it reliability-wise. Sometimes it bricks tabs when updating (already happened in this forum). If it still doesn't work, hey, see it as a good sign. Something preventing you dealing with that thing!
Hi guys, so I have a little bit of an issue! I've had my nexus 6 for about 3 months and i'm not sure when it happened or why but some how and some way no matter what rom I'm running, USB connection to desktop no longer works. I have tried turning adb on and off, reloaded drivers, and tried other computers. When I monitor device manager in Windows 10 no new devices are connected at all, just does not show up. No unknown device, adb, USB, nothing. So I'm not sure what I should do, I was thinking of claiming warranty however trying to avoid it. Any suggestions??????
P.S: Mounting external storage devices using otg is successful.
May there be some problem with your cable. Try different cable on all available usb port.
I've done that, no success
