Hello,
My Samsung Galaxy S is listed as Unknown Device.
It started after an update to 2.2 via Kies and i did that with the regedit exploration. That was the 2.2 beta and then i updated it again with the official release this time also with the regedit exploit. I have formated the internal SD (i cant dismount it cause im on froyo i guess? atleast there is no option about it). Factory reset and so on.
Reinstalled kies 5 times, installed USB drivers again and again. I have tried it on different platforms with both XP (32-bit), Vista (32-bit) and Slackware Linux (32-bit). The computors just cant find drivers for the device.
I have tried all the different usb options in the phone settings nothing happends. I think i have tried everything that can be found here and on google...
The phone is Rooted and im now on PDA: I9000XWJP6, PHONE: I9000XXJPM, CSC: I9000XEEJP4.
Build Info: 2010. 10.
I believe the main thing here is that i dont even get the MTP application in the phone to recognize that a USB connection have been initialized. Nothing happend in the phone when i connect the USB no MTP screen or anything, just chargeing. I have tried 2 diffrent usb cords both that worked before so its not that.. The computor just says unknown device and Kies dont notice anything at all.
I have tried installing another firmware with Odin in Download mode and stil unknown device.
So i believe the phone have, in some way lost its internal usb drivers? I have also noticed that the battery "100% charged" icon does not disapear after i disconnect the usb or the charger. Also sometimes the icon continues to charge after i disconnect. Sometimes when i turn the phone of it starts by itself after like 2 min.
Anyways! What i was wondering is if there is a way to install an official firmware via update.zip volume-up+home+power?
When i try to install a customized rom with update.zip it says:
E:signature verification failed Installation aborted.
Cause of 3e bootloader? But i think its best to maby have a good stable firmware before i go customized?
So any help would be appreciated!!! heeeeeeeelp.....
Try installing theses drivers x64 x86 depending on what operating system you're on.
If that doesn't work try going into download mode and connect with odin. With the recovery problem you need to flash 2e recovery
You can also try and download and flash the latest version firmware to your phone and see if that helps.
Good luck and tell me how it goes

Hi m8!
Thx for the reply!
I have allready tried installing those drivers doesnt work for me.
I have tried Download mode with Odin to, it still says Unknown Device in Windows (i have Vista 32-bits, but tried it on XP and Linux to).
So anything that has to do with a USB-connection seems impossible at the moment...
The phone dont start the MTP application at all and windows dont install the drivers, it just says unknown device when trying to install.
I just unistalled Kies and removed everything from regedit with "kies" in it and then rebooted and downloaded a new fresh Kies file. Installed it and rebooted again while i wiped the phone, formated the SD and did a factory reset.. still "Unknown Device" :[
The problem seems to be the software in the phone.. so my question is: Is there is anyway to update or flash the firmware in the phone without any USB connection?
Is there maby any way to get 2e recovery mode without usb connection?

There is an app in the Android Development section here that allows you to flash a kernel within Android. Never tried it myself but I believe it is now stable and you could use it to flash CF-Root internally
EDIT: Here you go...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=877444
Have you tried recovery mode? Big yellow triangle with Android man holding shovel. Then connect to PC with Kies running and click on firmware update button.
Thx man!
But it seems that i dont have root access anymore, so cant use that app either :/ i think im a hopeless case.. :[

Yes man.. i get the same thing with the Yellow friend that says "Do not turn of target!!!"..
"One of the USB devices attached to this computor has malfunctioned. And Windows does not recognize it."
and also
"Unknown Device Installed
The software for this device has been successfully installed.
Unknown device - - Ready to use"
Are you connecting through a hub or direct to the back port of the PC. A hub will cause problems. If direct then try this.. Plug in and wait till you get the unrecognised device info. go into device manager, identify the device it will either say Samsung or unknown device. right click and remove device say yes if it asks if you want to delete the driver. now restart the pc after unplugging the usb then after it has fully restarted and connected to the net plug it back in again. Hopefully it will look on the net for the driver and install the correct one.

Yep tried that to.. i have even tried it on 3 diffrent computers 2 of them in all usb ports.. and everything els works that was connected in those ports.
I dont think its the software in the computer that is the problem.. :/
I believe there is some internal (in the phone) usb firmware problem, if thats possible?
i have exactly the same problem my usb by giving uknown device (i used it at 3 computer with kies software) it seems usb not working anywhere.
I believe our only solution is to find a way to install e2 recovery via the phone.
I have this problem also.
My SGS is rooted.
I tried everything. Googled many hour.
I din't know what more to do.
I have "Android system recovery <2e>" Is this an advantage?
I turned the phone in to my provider. this message is what i got from the repairservice.
Repair Details: The phone's charge connector is moisture/water -damaged, can not be repaired. returned without action.
WTF?!! i have been really careful with the phone. The only thing i can think of is that it has been really cold where i live (Sweden) and i had it in my pocket.. but i mean cmon! it goto withstand that!
I guess i have to wait for samsung to make it possible to update firmware via Wifi.

With Recovery 2e i think it can be possible to update your phones firmware with the update.zip file but i think you need to have your phone rooted.

I think so. I have my phone rooted and also ROM Flash Manager installed. The issue now is to find an european stock image to flash compatible with ROM Flash Manager
I looked for the stock firmware image (my phone has JF3) but can't find where.
Anyone?
I don't want to flash a cooked image just in case I have to ship the phone to the repair service.
Hello, I have exactly the same problem.
My SGS is unrooted, due to warranty, and alway keep it with maximum care (it is not a free phone...).
Symptoms are the same:
-It started after an update to 2.2 via Kies
-Absolutely unrecognized by windows (xp32 and win764) anymore
-battery "100% charged" icon does not disappear after i disconnect the usb or the charger
-turning the phone off it starts by itself after like 2 min.
More: incredible but sometimes when connected to car charger, I have the message "usb connected".
Already tried all possible (unrooted) tricks.
I believe usb internal drivers (if any) are corrupted (maybe by moisture?), how to reinstall them?
Maybe usb connector damaged; I have moved a little bit with a scrwdrvr the usb connector plate and clean with air and a thin blade but no result.
I will bring to service, as warranty is still valid, but surely they will discard me (I am optimist)
If there is any solution, please post it.
Hello,
Same here, can't connect phone to pc, mtp dont start on phone after connect it on pc !
Anyone know how flashback stock rom if its possible ?
Hi someone have a stock firmware for flash it in to recovery ?
I think i will try send the phone to samsung after reflashing for see what the guys from samsupport says about this !
Yes, if a part of firmware has been corrupted (with usb info for pc recognition) maybe the solution is to reinstall entire rom.
How to find a stock rom?
How to reinstall rom from SD card in a non rooted phone with no usb connection?
I had rooted my phone previously running 2.1 and yesterday decided to try cm7. (I've flashed many G1 roms but none for Captivate)
Sorry this is quite long but wanted to give as much detail as possible
I was reading and watching the guides. Installed rom manager and flashed ClockworkMod Recovery 2.5.1.0
Rebooted the phone and tried to see if I can get into download mode by holding vol up + down and plugging the USB cable.
Once it booted tried to copy some other roms (zips) to the phone but the USB wasn't working on windows for some reason so rebooted in Linux. Phone mounted at first (for about a minute) but something happen and I lost the mount. I unplugged/plugged the usb cable but wasn't able see the phone as a drive even with fdisk.
So I ftped to the phone:
3buttonFix.zip
captivate-efsbackup.zip
cm7-captivate-initial-20110304.zip
speedmod-kernel-i897-k13c-500hz-CWM.zip
Installed 3buttonFix.zip (should let me enter download mode) from recovery, rebooted but still couldn't get in download mode.
Installed speedmod-kernel-i897-k13c-500hz-CWM.zip from recovery. Not sure if I had to do anything special like reformat the filesystem with the new kernel?
After reboot the phone gets stuck on Galaxy S sgh-i897 screen. Got back in recovery and installed captivate-efsbackup.zip and cm7-captivate-initial-20110304.zip
The cm7-captivate-initial-20110304.zip fails when trying to write the modem
'assert failed: write_raw_image("/tmp/modem.bin", "radio")'
I plugged the phone into another computer at that point and was able to get into "Download mode" for the first time. Odin didn't recognize the phone though. Download mode is very flaky. It starts sometimes, sometimes it doesn't (battery charger starts) even on the same port with the same cable. I have tried installing captivate drivers and/or kies on 7 different systems (5 laptops 2 desktops) but Odin never recognizes the phone and windows trows out a "USB Device Not Recognized" msg
I think my usb is not working properly but the guides how to recover assume working Download mode with Odin. Any suggestions on what to do for that? Or I guess I can download a different rom and/or kernel on my sdcard than mount the sdcard through recovery and install that way?
Any advise is appreciated as I'm not very familiar with the kernel and rom differences for captivate
Well you messed up on the instructions but that is a separate point.
I went through your post quickly so if I am saying something you grave tried I apologize
What drivers are you installing
Have you tried multiple ports
Are you using oem cord
Have you restarted your computer
Have you ever used odin before
CM7
I have used the following drivers:
SGH-i897_Captivate_USB_Drivers_5_02_0_2.zip
SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_x86.exe (just the usb modem driver)
2 different versions of samsung kies which include usb drivers (don't have the software versions handy but I can get them if that will help)
Ports:
Multiple computer and multiple ports. Will try few more options
Cables:
Used 3 different usb cables. 1 of them is from a BB phone. 1 of the other 2 is the one which came with the captivate (not 100% sure though)
Reboots:
4 of the 7 computers I tried on were rebooted. One version of kies requires this anyhow.
Odin:
Haven't used Odin at all. I think when the phone gets connected and odin recognizes it one of the top left blocks changes color right ? I tried to flash even when it didn't (just to make sure I wasn't missing something) and saw 0 successful / 0 failed
Do you have android sdk installed on any of the computers?
CM7
So many red flags that something wasn't right with your phone and you still tried to flash it? I just don't get it.
@Miami_Son: Yeah but i'm too thick headed - living dangerously but yeah you're right.
@mcord11758: I have android sdk installed on my linux build at home. I'll put it on a windows system at work and see if it can see the phone. Anything in particular I should do / look out for ?
At least you've got a good attitude.
I think if you have kies installed it conflicts with the samsung drivers odin uses. Try uninstalling them and flash odin.

Try this first
Sdk to install updated drivers if this fails
CM7
I've done almost the exact same thing...having the same issues. Phone would not connect to computer. Other captivates connect fine. The phone is now stuck on a boot screen and I can put it into download mode but Odin or the computer will not detect it at all. I don't think I can get into recovery mode, nor can I get into a rom...pretty much just download mode or a boot screen.
@1tontomato: Tried uninstall kies, reboot, install samsung usb drivers, reboot still don't see the phone connected in odin
@mcord11758 The sdk is trying to download the repository directly and I'm behidn a proxy server at work. I'll update tonight, it will be most likely very late by the time I get home.
@kwhee07 Yeah sux to see a download mode but not being able to download. I can get at least into recovery so I guess I can at least flash something that way. The ports really make difference, I've seen many would just charge the phone and some will get your phone into download mode at least. Try a different pc and cable if you can.
I have the sdk...I've tried about everything else I can find. Is there a possible method of fixing this via the SDK? I feel like if I could make the computer force [odins] data out the usb port, it would work, the phone would be in download mode awaiting data....but I cant get odin to see it
There is a package you can install in sdk for usb drivers. Dl it
Open odin
Get into dl mode
Unknown device pops up
Click on it
choose custom drivers
Navigate to c drive/program files/android/extras/google add ons/usb click ok (the path may be slightly different) the computer should try to install the correct drivers
If it works odin should now recognize your device. If not I got nothing
CM7
Got the USB drivers from the SDK and tried to force them when it sees an unknown device, but I get "The specified location does not contain information about your hardware"
I tried to force it to use the samsung drivers also but without success.
Is it possible to just download a rom or kernel and update my current state? So that the phone at least boots. I can install stuff through recovery. Download mode is nice and everything but I'm giving up on it, don't have any more ideas to try
I have been trying to see data on my sdcard from ClockworkMod Recovery 2.5.1.0 I go to
Mounts and Storage -> mount /mnt/sdcard
Install *.zip from sdcard -> choose zip from sdcard
I don't see /mnt at all I try and go under sd/ but it says No files found.

Under mounts and storage do you see the option for mount usb this might be able to force your computer to see it as a removable drive. If out does you should be able to copy another rom to the sd and flash. This may or may not work for you because you might still need to repartition which you only do with odin. Take this advise with extreme caution I really think you need odin If you do decide to flash another rom, use cognition because Dg's includes the fixed boot.bin. Probably because so many people use the one click and kill their button combos and don't know it. Other devs don't include it in their roms, because it's dangerous to over write something that doesn't need to be overwritten. Good luck

I tried already the usb mount option from recovery at home and now at work also on few different systems/ports including a linux machine. I don't see the drive connected.
My only option left is to get somehow the sdcard mounted and install a rom from there. Or maybe just repartitioning/changing the filesystem might fix the getting stuck problem.
I ended up bringing my phone back to att, and they said that the 1010 batch was under product advisory..they exchanged my phone with almost no questions asked.
Now i have a 1008 and am running CM7
Finishing up the story in case it might help somebody in the feature.
I called AT&T to get my phone replaced and it turns out it has liquid dmg. There's a little white sticky that turns red when there's liquid dmg. Mine was pink but wasn't wait so no warranty for me. Turns out most of the time people get liquid dmg is if they leave the phone in the bathroom or close to the kitchen's sink, which is kinda bs but whatever.
I've tried few more times. Tried even on a Mac and on a Linux system (using http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=755265 )
I was about to give up and go seek one of the 'professional rooters' but last thing I tried was to use an 'air duster' and clean the usb port on my phone. After that Odin was able to see my phone. The connection was dropping on/off but it successfully finished a flash.
Not sure if I should even try to put another rom or the official froyo update but at least for now I'm up and running
Thanks all
Hi everyone
So here it is : No program is able to recognize/detect my Galaxy S i9000M (Bell Vibrant) when it's in download mode, so I can't flash any ROM. My phone is currently fully bricked and unusable. I cannot access to the recovery mode with the three-button thingy or by "adb reboot recovery"
I bricked using Odin 1.8, trying to flash a 2.2 froyo stock ROM from Samfirmware. The flashing went ok, but it failed to reboot. Actually, the screen was turned off and nothing was happening. I figured out it was fully bricked so I made a USB JIG, it worked. I can access my download mode.
I connected the phone to my Windows 7 computer and used Odin to flash back to 2.1 Eclair, with a stock ROM from Samfirmware. It failed (I don't remember the error message, it was a couple days ago...).
I tried with Heimdall Frontened. It had a problem uploading the .pit file, so the flashing didn't work.
Now each time i connect the phone to my computer, Windows (and Heimdall frontened and Odin) doesn't detect it,which means that I can't flash anything on it even though it is in download mode.
I have tried reinstalling like every driver on earth, still not responding.
I tried on another Windows 7 machine and on Ubuntu, the device is not detected.
I tried with different USB cables, nothing happens.
This is my hypothesis (maybe silly) : Could the problem be the Download mode being corrupted?
Whatever... I could use some help from you guys.
Thank you,
Sam
I had/have the same problem.
I installed the Samsung Kies and now my computer recognize my phone again.
But I have still no idea what I need to flash to make my phone working.

That is strange... I tried installing Kies and it didn't detect the phone. And you could just flash any 2.3 stock ROM with Odin I guess.
Hello!
Here I am, floating through the Samsung waters
I've stuck on one part, of course; my phone is bricked, computer reads it only half way and ODIN doesn't even show any signs of life and I have no possibility to rewrite firmware up there.
What is it all about?
I've flashed the ICS up there through stock recovery before I saw on xda that new cwm or some other new recovery should be written. First, it gives me the tpm/sideload error every time I try to install new recovery, I can't even do the factory reset, anything. I can enter the recovery normally, it's just that I can't install anything. I've tried with several roms, some of them pass through normally, but the device doesn't want to boot, and when it is turning on, it just shows samsung logo and nothing else.
When I enter the recovery, it shows me this error:
Appling Muti-CSC
E: failed to mount /system (invalid argument)
and when I try to install something from that recovery it shows me this:
E: error in /tpm/sideload/package.zip
I must remark that the packages I downloaded are 100% valid, the card is regularly formated.
After that, I've tried with ODIN. I enter the download mode, but my device is recognized as modem mode. I've installed the drivers, I have good cable, I've done every little thing they mention on xda. So, let's say that my device is properly installed. But it is in modem mode only when I turn on download mode.
When I turn it to recovery mode, then it recognizes this:
-samsung usb CDC composite device (that is under the USB controllers and it is normally installed.)
-CDC abstract control model (ACM)
-CDC ACM data
-CDC Obex data
-CDC object exchange
These last ones are not properly installed, but when I send it to look for it in folder where the drivers of the device are unpacked, it says they are not found.
Is there a possibility that my computer did not manage to install all the drivers, considering that I installed them after bricking, and not before?
Is there a possibility that I manage to manually force it to recognize drivers and install them?
Is there any way that I can make it to connect with ODIN and write him official GB ROM?
Please help me, I wouldn't want to take it to service!

Hello!
I did a root with odin on my device many time ago, it was successfull. But after that, when I plug the USB in the computer, it only charges. It wasn't important for me, because my device was rooted.
But nowadays I tried to update to 4.4.2 from 4.1.2, so I thought that if I wipe cache and data the USB will work again... but no, so I thought: "maybe if I unroot...", and now I have a gt-i8190n without root and with an USB that only charges.
I tried to update from SD, but the result is: "signature verification failed".
I can get in download mode, but my computer doesn't recognize the device (tried in other computers, and with other cables).
So, here is my question: Will a JIG USB solve anything?
Thanks

I think you need to install the USB drivers for your s3 mini.
If you use TWRP as recovery then boot to recovery > settings > uncheck "Zip signature verification" then you will not again get a failed message.
Do a nandroid backup before you start flashing

The drivers are correctly installed, because the first time I rooted I had no problem, and after it, I have plugged another device (an i8190n, too) and the computer recognizes it without any problem.
I have a 3e recovery, so I can't uncheck "Zip signature verification".
May I start to look for a jig USB?

No wonder why it fails 3e recovery is the stock recovery from s3 mini. You can only flash signed zip from Samsung. You need a custom recovery for flashing custom ROMs if you still have root access then download from play store "ROM Manager" and install CWM recovery or download "[ROOT] Rashr - Flash Tool" for flash CWM or TWRP recovery.

Put the phone in download mode and flash twrp in odin. It's the only way to put a new recovery there without root already.
Otherwise root it, and then flash recovery with rommanager or other similar app.

I'm not sure if it will work, but it's the last thing to try.
I have made an order of the jig USB, and it is supposed to arrive in 20 days (less than 2$ and free shipping). Until then, must wait... I'll will tell you if it works or not.
Thanks!

As I have mentioned before, my device USB only charges, there isn't communication with computer. I know how odin works, but the problem is with the USB.
I'm asking if JIG USB is the only solution, and if it will work.
Thanks for all the answers, but as I had said before... USB only charges :crying:

Even when you put your phone in download mode and then connect the cable?
If so, same thing will probably happen with a USB jig. They are only to force the phone to DL mode. You still have to connect it after that..
How can you tell that it charges in download mode? There is no icons for that.

Yes, when I connect the cable Odin doesn't recognize it, so I supose that only charges (it's true, perhaps it doesn't do it, there isn't any icon). It's supposed when I conncet the phone to the computer, it should pop up the "new storage" (with Odin closed), but it doesn't, only charges.
I want try USB jig, because I have read that it will put the counter to 0 (hoping is this the problem)

Counter is not set to 0 with usb jig on this device. We use triangle away for that.
If you got Kies installed, then uninstall it and install samsung drivers only.
See if there's dust in the phones usb. Take some thin plastic, but be gentle.
Just a few ideas but you've probably tried it all.

It's what I supposed, but it's a way to try if USB connection works (not 100% but if it doesn't work I will know it's a hardware problem)
I've tried uninstall Kies and install samsung drivers, I've cleaned the dust in the usb, but I don't understand what I have to do with the plastic, is the same plastic to keep food fresh? must put it on the usb?
not working yet
my USB JIG has arrived and I have tried it... and still doesn't work. Yes, it starts the download mode, but when I plug the USB to try something, the computer (ODIN) doesn't do anything. I have tried with my wife's phone and it works, it's a i 8190n, too.
I'm not going to try anything more, YOU WIN THIS TIME i8190n!
Hi, I have the same problem with my GT-8190, but it happens after my phone drop onto water..
charging is work, but it say "USB device Not Recognized" when I try to connect with PC..
now i want back to stock rom, but I can't do it if my phone not recognized to PC.
Do you have an idea how to flash official stock rom without PC(Odin)?
Sorry for my English
