You can get an extra USB cable from ebay for like 3 bucks.
There has been many issues with 64 bit systems and the drivers. I had to wipe my laptop once due to it not seeing my phone and then letting it update the drivers on its own.

how do i wipe what drivers might already be in place?

BuuuuuuuuuuUMMMP

Maybe try a different USB port.

Ive tried them all

[Q] Computer not recognizing phone in download mode

I rooted and installed Cognition 2.1.6 on my phone a few weeks ago and want to change to Cognition 3.04. When attempting to flash back to stock via Odin, my computer will not recognize the phone in download mode. (I'm using AIO Toolbox and running the debug check.) The PC fully recognizes the phone until I'm in download mode. I get an error "The device has malfunctioned" and the device manager shows an unknown device. I uninstalled and reinstalled the 32-bit drivers and the same issue occurred. I've tried both Odin 1 click and Odin 3 click and neither recognizes my phone, although I doubt it matters which version of Odin I'm trying. I've searched all over the forums and the closest thing I've found is pointing the device manager to the driver, but the Samsung USB driver directory has numerous .inf files and I have no idea which one to choose. Any help?
Other relevant info: Win XP SP3 32-bit, Captivate Build 1012...
havent heard good things about xp and aio toolbox... dev doesnt own xp, but does have vista and win7,
when pointing to a driver select the whole samsung folder and check the box that says "also search sub-folders" .... or wait not sure if xp has that option, its been 6 years... hope it does.
but if your drivers installed by the program, you shouldnt need to manual install.
try different usb cable (you didnt do that fast charge tinfoil thing did you?)
try different usb port,
try different operating system (torrent win7)

Hmm... The only issues with XP seemed to come with flashing a custom ROM step not the drivers. It seems like there is an issue with the drivers and/or usb ports. Have you tried connecting it to the USB ports near the back of the computer?

I had this problem when I tried last weekend without using AOI, so I doubt it's an issue with Toolbox. (I just pointed out that I used Toolbox to note that I definitely had debugging on. I tried to include as much relevant info as possible in the OP to avoid a lot of "have you tried this [basic function]" replies.) I tried multiple ports, too. I'll give it a go in the morning and see if Trusselo's "search folder" suggestion is a possibility...
I had this same problem and i searched for a fix for the three button method

It's not recognized when the phone is on? Seeing as you posted this topic using your phone I assume so lol. Have you tried restarting your computer?
You can download the correct drivers here.

Make sure you are using the oem usb cable. I had the same problem, changed cables and it worked
some cheap cables are for charging ... bt headsets and other stuff the data cables dont connect, its just for power.

You gotta make sure that your usb port is directly connected to your motherboard (usually back of your computer).
same usb port that has always worked. ive tried them all by now anyway
now i cant tell you how this helped but... i downloaded drivers to a different computer odin crashed while flashing reflashed and im 100% stock atm. Didnt do ANYTHING to my computer plugged it in and its working.

Duno what happened but I'm glad it worked out for you
I'm having the same problem with my captivate after flashing REDROM. It won't recognize it if I have USB debugging turned on...
i have a theory... were you on a GB or other i9000 based rom/kernel???
well, im still having a problem getting my computer to recognize the phone, i have to mess with it for a a while to get it to work. i really want to flash anew 2.3.3 rom but without being able to get everything working right im stuck in 2.1
is this a problem with my cord or the connection on my phone? or something weird with my phone after flashing it a lot. its currently back to odin stock, i have been trying to master clear it with no luck

Guys, this problem while connecting to the PC body is stupidly charging .... Even in the download mode Odin does not see a body that could be? Connect other Cappy-all OK.

it must be a powered usb hub, on my buddies laptop only 1 out of 4 usb ports saw his phone.
if you can get into download mode you arent bricked.
try installing i9000 drivers, or try another computer.
I came up with this a while back. Could very well be the same issue.
Let me start by saying I'm flash happy, and everyone that knows me personally, tells me to just quit jacking with my phone. NOT A CHANCE! I'm on my 3rd Cappy and shouldn't have ever exchange it again. I only had to in the beginning, because I was a newbie and had not know enough, but to get me in trouble.
I presume that this should work on all Windows OS's. I personally am running Vista Enterprise x86.
My symptoms:
Plug in phone to the usb and it there was about a 15% chance off being able to mount to usb, and Windows recognizing as a mass storage device. I tried un-installing drivers and re-installing and it would work some of the time, until the point came when parts of the driver install would fail. Then to the point when it was just completely unrecognizable. I thought I had it fixed because it seemed intermittent. In the middle of flashing to stock, something interrupted communication between the pc and my phone. Restarted the phone and attempted the flash again. Got a little farther and froze again. I had to use another pc that I had never connected my phone to before and I was able to use my jig to trigger download mode, because no buttons combinations would allow it into download mode.
This got me thinking that it was specific to my pc and not my cable or my phone.
My resolution:
I went straight to the registry and went to find. I deleted every entry that came up for "i897" and "i9000" excluding what was listed in the system volume information, as I didn't have permissions to remove any keys. I didn't keep count, but I probably deleted 300-400 registry keys that pointed to my phone. It seems as if with each developers rom that I had flashed, there was an entry for a different device. Don't quote me on that, because it is just my personal consensus. I also un-installed the samsung drivers, the unknown device driver, kies software, and anything associated with samsung. I noticed that next to all of the i9000 instances, the hex key for me started with 1000ee. So I also searched for the first part of that key trying to ensure that all instances of the device. Lastly, I deleted the samsung folder from program files.
I installed the samsung drivers package commonly listed in all of the other threads for x86 operating systems. I plugged in my phone and watched as each and every driver installed successfully. Keep in mind different drivers are installed depending on if you have usb debugging on/off, and the options for if the preferences on you phone are set to media, storage, or kies. I have multiple usb ports, however testing has shown me that, for me and my setup, I can plug into the port that I used when installing the drivers the final time, I am able to connect consistently. Earlier today, I tried to plug into a different usb port and it was an unknown device. I am led to believe, this is because I didn't un-install the unknown device on this particular port.
If you intend to work in the registry, please remember to always back it up first. You can always restore.
Hopefully my findings can help you as they did me. Happy flashing and I would like to thank the community for the dedication to assisting each other and the developers, for making flashing, better than crack cocaine. Flashing rom's doesn't make you twitch near as much as a crackhead.
Well since you can't use your phone you should sell it to me

HELP just got my captivate!

hi ive searched for a few hours and tried so many different sequences her eon the forums and for some reason i cant get odin3 1.78 to recognize my captivate... otherwise i would have an awesome Cyanogenmod 7 on it.
i rooted it and installed clockwork from the thread "how to install roms" under the dev threads (the big sticky) then attempted to install a custom rom through clockwork and it failed. now my original rom is messed up. i can load into it but android.phone continuously closes...i cant get odin to see my phone thus i cant reflash the original firmware....
yes i have drivers installed.
yes i have the AIO toolbox.
now for some reason i cannot get Odin to recognize my phone AT ALL (download/recovery/loaded). ive literally tried everything i can think of and to be honest i hope someone here can make me look stupid and help me fix it . ive flashed roms before back in the day with my tilt and cliq. but ive been out of the game for a very long time and lemme tell you im completely lost feeling.
im on windows 7 ultimate x86 fully updated.
ill be glad to donate a little bit for some success on just getting odin to recognize because i have everything. its just that stopping me..
in the meantime my phone is just useless
It might be problems with usb port. Try different ports and/or a totally different computer. Make sure you have drivers according to your computer (32-bit /64). I don't really know why it isn't working.
im sure if he got cwm copied to the phone the USB works...
i have never heard of odin3 1.78
only 1.0 1.3 1.5 1.7 1.81 and 1.82
and some odins only work with some phones..
did this odin ever work for you? or never?
try this one...
no i used my laptop MicroSD then transfered into my root folder of my phone.
ive tried it on 4 computers in my house so far all windows 7 32 bit.
installed the drivers from the AIO and even KIE after seeing no results. ive tried different ports as well and thats the exact odin im using ;(
i also attempted XP compatability mode seeing on another thread windows XP worked for another user in a somewhat situation so im debating whether or not to dual boot XP just to fix my phone lol
so your computer doesnt even see it when you mount usb to copy files? not just odin? did it ever work?
i run windows 7 64 bit no probs.
EDIT... i just re-read your first post....
ODIN ONLY sees the phone in download mode. ONLY
no it doesnt see it at all i think im goin to uninstall drivers and reboot.
now it makes the sound that windows found it but i cant access it or visually see it as a mass storage device even when i specify the settings (disabling debug/enabling mass storage) and under download mode it just doesnt see it at all.
i think im going to get organized and correclty reinstall anything i might think may be an issue
also installing xp on a virtual box on my linux machine to my right
virtual machines and odin dont mix well
with linux use heimdall instead of odin. but the machine still needs to see the device.
and try the drivers from samsung.
USE THE ORIGINAL SAMSUNG CABLE!!!!!!!
some cheap cables, like the one for my bluetooth headset are power only usb cables. the other 2 data pins dont connect end to end!!!!!!!!
ahh maybe thats the problem, i happened to pick up my captivate from someone on criraglist just yesterday and it was just phone and charger. how can i tell if i have an original or not? and yea i tried the drivers from samsung for the galaxy S as well. i was so irritated earlier lol i took a break and came back to it
if windows doesnt beep when pluggin in, then the cable is probably no good...
or try the cable with another phone/ usb hard drive / some data device that takes that input....? or go to radio hack and pick up a new cable. if that doesnt work return it to the hack for your$$ back.. if it does work its worth the 15-20$...
or maybe the phone has a dead usb port... that has happened to some people
okay i found a cord that gives me "usb device not recognized" when im loaded into my phone fully and select mass storage. this is after i installed the samsung driver exe 32 bit for my 32 bit windows 7.
looks like windows 7 attempts to install drivers for "mass storage device" and it fails.
my windows will fail on phone boot a few times because the phone cycles thru different modes.. adb and download mode work on different drivers...
remember to mount to see sd card on pc...
but at least you are getting something now... maybe now is the time to try other pcs..
just throwing out some ideas its getting late.... lol
lol yea thanks man ill reinstall android sdk and java se and see if i can get the adb to be seen and try different drivers for now. thanks for helping me ill donate to you in the end even if we cant get it but man my phone is wacked, all the services are force cosing on it. its so useless right now

okay man i got it.. i rebooted my pc after uninstalling EVERYTHING (java sdk,eclipse, android sdk, AIO Captivate toolbox, all drivers known to man that dealt with the phone) then logged back in, i downloaded and loaded up UVCView.x86 and tried my phone on every single usb port on my laptop while disconnecting ANY other device thats including my mouse and for some reason my captivate only worked on 1 usb port that was on the side of my laptop (left side) and would only make a (ding dong) sound if my external was detached from my laptop (weird) but wouldnt install drivers still. reinstalled the set of drivers needed and installed AIO captivate toolbox, nothing happened. so i put my phone in download mode and i went into the Compatibility options for the AIO toolbox and set to run as windows xp SP3 + checkboxed run in 256 color, Disable visual themes, Disable desktop composition, Disable scaling on high DPI settings and run as Administrator Then doubled clicked/loaded it up. sure looked like utter crap but my phone was seen by windows and sure enough it had 2 drivers it installed. i went into flash to stock and COM 3 came right up i cried with happiness and i flashed faster than my eyes blink while on a cup of sugar. then i went ahead and tested the com 3 detectability under Odin (i set odin with the EXACT same compatibility mode settings as the AIO - i used odin by itself just for testing) and COM 3 was instantly seen. after flashing to stock and making sure eveyrthing was okay, i went ahead and installed the speedmod kernel and yet again windows 7 x86 recgonized the device and it installed about 7 different drivers! i should be okay from here im not totally noobed feeling now.
Thanks for stickin by my side for the information and support TRusselo ill donate to you for that.
PS : i think im going to research for a week or two on getting what i ned for my linux box in the near future lol
congrats!!!!
yep yep, got cyanogenmod 7 running great, sure is a battery killer though, seriously im afraid of leaving the house with this lmao. my next paycheck be sure to see a donate from dahrat

Problem making pc to recognize phone.

Hello ppls.
I've read some similar threads about this problem, tried some solutions, didn't worked and they didin't really had my situation.
So lets begin. My phone isn't recognized by my computer of anysort. When i plug the device i get this error: Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43) .Tried solutions for the error with no succes.
I run Windows 7 64 bit,4gb Ram, Intel Quad Core 2,2 Ghz. I downloaded the drivers for the device from samsung, bummer when i manually try to update the drivers and set the path to where the drivers are it says The device is already up to date,even with online search.
What i've tried so far:
1. Tried in normal condition with KIES. Debugging off.
2. Debuggind on. Same
3. Different PC with windows 7 32 bits, same error, same solutions that don't work
4. Updating .Net framework
5. Installing a program that automaticly detects drivers. It didnt even see it.
6. Checking the cable for corrosion or anything else faulty. Cleaned it even.
7. Yelling are the stupid phone !!
Thank you.

No because i connected succesfully my friends galaxy fit with it, so the cable is not the problem.

Uninstall and reinstall the drivers.
Try different drivers.
Make sure you're using a Samsung wrong with the Samsung drivers.
Use a different PC.
Keep trying!
I gave up...I tried everything.Spent hours of searching forums and applying solution, nothing works... Tried On 3 different pc's. 1 with win 7 64bit, and the rest win 7 32 bit. I can't manually install the drivers either. Says there are already up to date when i set a location for the drivers to detect...I can't even use it as mass storage.

To try using different drivers you would need to uninstall the current driver.
And just to be sure, you didn't flash to CM7/MIUI recently, not realizing Samsung drivers won't recognize your phone anymore, right? Nexus S drivers for those ROMs.
Its on the original ROM i think. Recently bought it second hand, 1 year old.
I couldn't find different drivers...except 32 bit and 64bit, but they all are the same version. Maybe post a link or something. Mine are 1.4.4.

Dude i'm not the kinda of guy that doesn't research first. Like i mentioned i tried everything i found with no effect. The thing is, the problem reappeared after a day, with the new rom. Took it back to the service, said its a virus from some apps i installed...Is it possible? Thing is, it worked even after i restored all my apps.
I couldn't change the rom either because neither Odin or Heimdall saw my phone, if that is what you reffered to. If you know how to resoft a phone without the pc recognizing it (not even as a composite USB device in download mode or debugmode) and just Showing in Odin or Heimdall "Unknown Device" and failed at installing ClockworkMod, be my guest and redirect me to the tutorial, or tell me how to do it.

Throw it against the wall then. You ask us for help, disregard all of it, and then update us on what the service desk told you. If you will only listen to them, then don't ask us, kay? Appreciated.
Hi, there.
Actully, the rahbert's question is not bad. How can i use Mobile Odin if i can't root the device?
Or, how can I root without PC? Is it possible? I have exactly the same problem:
Nexus S (I9020), ICS 4.0.4(stock). When I plug the device: the error is reported(Code 43).
Should I try wipe data/factory reset? I really don't want to do this, because there is another good question: How can I fully backup my data(Titanium and so on) without root access? Can you suggest me something? Thanks.

[Q] Phone won't connect to computer

Alright, so before I get flamed, I have searched for over an hour today, and I have not been able to figure this out. I am not new to android, rooting, custom roms, and editing files, so I have tried a multitude of different things.
To the point, my Droid 3 will not connect to my computer. It did a couple weeks ago when I flashed the Liberty Rom onto it, but now it'll just charge and not go into the USB mode. The only reason I know it is charging is when I disconnect the cord it says the disconnected message.
I have tried a couple different cables, and I usually use my stock cable that came with my D3. I have also tried restarting my phone and computer. I even flashed the newest Liberty Rom the hard way and still no luck.
If someone could please help me out I would be VERY grateful as this is a PITA!!!
Thanks in advance!
My two cents would be, try different usb port and make sure you have the most current moto drivers.
Have had luck with uninstalling driver pack and reinstalling.
Hope that helps.
Sent from my DROID3 using XDA App
I appreciate the help, unfortunately uninstalling the drivers didn't work, unless I didn't get the correct drivers? I went into uninstall programs. In the device manager nothing came up for my phone or drivers. And I have also tried different ports but to no luck. Thanks again for the reply.
Have you tried a different computer? A different device? Let's just rule out that this isn't a computer issue first...
My Zune works in all of my ports, and my other computer. My Phone however does not. It does the same thing as my other computer, although I guess I don't have the drivers on the other computer, but it would still come up as usb connection right? All this does is charge, sometimes.
Have you tried Linux? No drivers are needed. download a live CD and see if it helps.

("Very Important"!) PLEASE POST!!!
After sufferring through the same issue and delving deeply for almost two days,I have found the culprit!!! IT IS THE USB CORD AND NOT THE DRIVERS OR ANYTHING ELSE!!"SIMPLY USE THE FIRST USB CORD THAT YOU USED THE VERY FIRST TIME YOU PLUGED INTO YOUR COMPUTOR AND THAT WILL RECTIFY(FIX) YOUR PROBLEM.(IT HAS TO BE THE VERY FIRST USB CORD OTHERWISE YOU WILL CONTINUE TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM UNTIL AND NO OTHER COMPUTOR WILL RECOGNIZE YOUR DEVICE UNTIL YOU DO WHAT I SAY.I thought it was the rooting of my phone that initially caused the issue or maybe an app,however,I found the culprit.The usb cord!!!(WHATEVER USB YOU USED FOR THE VERY FIRST ,STOCK OR NOT,IT IS THE ONLY ONE YOUR COMPUTOR WILL RECOGNIZE!!!

Dude could've just said use the USB cord that came with the phone, to each his own. I have 6 micro usb cables and only the moto official will allow me to do anything other than charge the phone via cpu.

The only problem is that I ONLY use the cord that came with my D3... Any way to flash the stock rom onto my phone from my phone and unroot? Then I can take my phone into verizon and get a new one... and a new cord..

That sucks. You can find the .890 sbf floating around in android development and flash it, I believe it takes everything to stock including unroot.

I looked in the thread posted, but the link to the flashable zip is down. So i'm stuck at a standstill right now.
This link works fine: http://dev-host.org/t6y98oinbk1f/Droid_3_SBF_5.6.890.zip

Can I flash that wit cwm or the stock recovery though? I can't use RSD or fastboot because nothing happens when I plug my usb into it.
