All was well, I could connect to my computer and go back and forth between ROMs but when I updated to Froyo, They phone could not connect to the computer, it will charge but wont copy files from sd card. USB debugging is on and I dont need the drivers because I am on mac, and it worked before, I cant even go back to stock, because the pc either, cannot find the phone. I have no warrenty because I bought it from Ebay, Help?
Assuming that you have the USB settings set to "Mass Storage":
After you connect it to the computer, you need to pull down the notification bar and select "Select to copy files to/from your computer", then follow the directions from there.
I know that!! Lol i do it all the time. It jusy doesnt work

are you using the same usb cable? some cheap cables are for charging only (like my bluetooth headset cable)
I tried my backflip cable

Which USB port are you connected to? Mine was flaky using the front USB ports on my computer. I moved my cable to the back of the computer and connected to a port directly off the MB. Since then, I haven't had a single problem. Just something to consider.

i'm having a problem with the usb of this device its a sprint galaxy tab i brought it used. under menu / settings / wireless and network i dont see an options for usb and when i plug in the usb cord to the computer theres a red x on the battery, windows doesnt even prompt me to install drivers i'm lost on what to do next
Try to use a different usb cord. . . By the way. . . What rom are you using in your tab? Because it seems that BOCA ROM doesnt have usb setting
i'm using the stock sprint rom and the usb cord is brand new i brought it from the t-mobile store yesterday
also what would the cord have to do with no usb options showing up under wireless and networking
Use a different usb port, and try a different pc.
Under setting>>wireless & network>>usb setting which do you choose? This option is important as your usb cord function depend on the selection of usb option. If you choose kies samsung, make sure you have the software install on your PC. If mass storage, make sure your have SD card inside and its not corrupted.
The battery with the x red cross i think is normal each time you connect it to PC. If you connect it to AC plug, then the x cross will not show.

Ok there is a similar post on this. Plug tablet in and charge it. While tablet is charging unplug your pc and then reboot it up to reset the usb ports. take your tablet and connect usb cable to pc. Ensure you have the samsung usb drivers loaded. Put your tablet in download mode and using odin try reflashing. You can try this if you don't have a second pc.

This question is all over and i'm a lil lost. I just got my 7.7, stock P6800. I plug it into my mac and there's this cross on the batt on the device. I'm assuming it wont charge with the USB cable that came with it. So i went to buy another. Same problem.
I installed Kies on my mac and it can sync tho. I just can't seem to be able to mount it to my mac and transfer files like a USB drive.

have you tried turning off usb debugging?
also the tab won't charge with the usb connected to the pc cuz the charge voltage is too low.. you need to modify your build.prop to force usb charging or flash sk806(steve's) custom rom
yes i toggled USB debugging on/off. :S
Well, i just bought a dock for my dell streak 7 running Honeystreak. When i try to connect the USB cable into the back of the dock while the tablet is in place my win7 computer doesn't recognize it at all. The tablet doesn't even show its connected! can someone help please!!?
Are you getting any error message ?
Look in your printer and devices folder, you should see it show up as a media device.
I looked and i didn't see anything... I know the dock has to work because the charging (from charging port not UBS port) and hdmi work.

Keep in mind, the charging usb port is SEPERATE from the data usb port. I use this dock and I just charge off it, if I want to use data, I use a 2nd cable connecting to it.
I think I tried that. I connect the dock (VIA charging port) then I connect the data cable(VIA mini usb) to the computer. It should charge and connect to the computer but it still doesn't recognize anything. Could it be the rom?

Well to confirm, can you use a normal cable to connect to your PC? Without the dock that is.
Also as for the rom, Ive used djsteve 2.2.2 and honeystreak, dock works in both. I know on WinXP however I needed to use a diff driver for the MTP Device.
Unfortunately my normal cord died and i coudnt find an original replacement so i got a dock instead. The original cord used to work without trouble though.

Got a PSP USB cord to plug in? Or try the PS3 controller plug. =p All those could work to test with on the dock.
Hello everybody!
whenever i leave my mini connected to my computer via usb cable, then reboot the computer, the phone does not recognize the usb connection anymore.
even when i unplug the cable and plug it back in.
i have to reboot the phone, then it works again. this always happens exactly like that, 100% reproducable.
i am using cyanogenmod 7.2.
is there a solution?
thanks.

May be a kernel issue. Play with different kernels.

So I just got my bootloader unlocked today. I went home this evening to plug my phone into my computer and start installing the custom recovery, only to find that both computers in my house won't recognize the phone when it's plugged in. To my dismay, no USB icon showed up in the status bar, and it just said "Charging". No notification in Windows (or the Ubuntu computer either). Either my cable has gone bad and only charges, or the original cable doesn't transfer data. I've also checked to make sure that Media Device (MTP) is checked. Funny thing was I was using the cable from my OG Droid at work today to charge my phone on the work computer. I know the USB Debugging icon had shown up so I know it was working properly, it won't show up on my computers at home.
Can anyone confirm with me that the original cable is USB only?
No, the original cable should do both. Try another cable though, or use port on the pc. Otherwise it's your drivers on the pc.
You have USB debugging checked in developer options? You have drivers installed on your computer? Making sure to use the USB port on the back of the computer, not the front?
