I have cyangen running but when i connect to my computer via usb it doesn't recongnize it. I installed the drivers, I tried 64bit and 32bit. I'm on window7 64bit.
I tried running adb devices and nothing shows up.
Baseband: I9000XXJVK

have you tried the i9000 drivers?
Have you tried different USB ports and do you have a different USB cable you can try?
Also, do you know how to get into Device Manager when the phone is plugged in to see if Windows even recognizes a device is plugged in? If so, check and see if anything looks wrong (like anything saying unrecognized device). Unplug the phone and see if that goes away. If it does, then that is your phone and you will manually have to install the drivers. PM me if you don't know how to do it and I'll walk you thru.
Where did you get the drivers for your phone and what phone do you have? This is the forum for the Captivate but it appears you are on Sprint which should mean you have a different phone. Regardless, the above will work for any device being plugged into a computer.

I got the drivers from a link from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=731989
and i also tried the AIO capitivate toolbox and i also tried the i9000 samsung drivers but they appear to be the same from the link i provided.
I also should have mentioned this is for my girlfriends phone, I have a LG Optimus S, on sprint.
Sorry if i was kind of vague in my op post, but thanks for the help.

Sounds like you are using Captivate drivers for an Optimus phone. Each phone will have different drivers for the computer to recognize them properly.
Here is a link to the LG site to download the drivers. Give it a try and see if this fixes your problem. If not, we will go to a next step.

OK, I was confused when you said this was about your girlfriend's phone. No problem though.
First, remove any drivers for the phone that you have installed in Control Panel and either Add/Remove Programs or Programs and Features. Unplug the phone from the computer. Next, go to the official Samsung website http://www.samsung.com/us/support/downloads/SGH-I897ZKAATT and download the drivers, not Kies. Install the drivers first, then plug your phone back in. That should work assuming you uninstalled the drivers from DesignGears.

Hey guys, I seem to be having the exact same problem with my Captivate. On my main desktop running Win7 32bit, it keeps saying unrecognized device, but it works on my laptop running Win7 64bit. I also used the same drivers from the thread OP posted.
Have you guys found a solution yet?

Try another cable if you can. Try plugging into a different USB port. Try uninstall and reinstall the drivers. Try downloading a fresh set of drivers and reinstall. Try the official drivers at Samsung's website.
Have you tried to see if the phone is recognized in both download mode and it's regular running state? If it works in download mode, it might be a problem with the ROM that was flashed.
Good luck!!

Hope the cable works, however the length of the cable isn't going to be a big issue. The main one I use for flashing is something like 2ft long. I had to replace a cable where the phone and the cable wouldn't "lock" together when plugged in. Had a soft brick when I tried to use it.
Anyways, I hope the cable ends up being your issue so we can call this one solved.
I am using Windows 7 Ultimate 32bit and am having trouble getting my laptop to recognize the phone through the USB cable since I've installed Win 7 SP1. After Googling, it seems others are having the same issue after SP1 install. I tried uninstalling the SP1 update but I'm still having the issue. Likewise, on m wife's Win 7 Home Premium 64bit (no SP), I can connect the phone via USB just fine and see the files/folders through Explorer.
I've tried uninstalling the drivers on my laptop and rebooting, then reinstalling the drivers and sometimes I can get the laptop to see the F:/G: drives of the phone, but they will just hang Explorer when I try to browse the files. One time Windows even tried to perform a "disk check" to repair errors when I tried to access the internal SD card (F.
I've also noticed that my Launcher Pro (paid app) won't backup my home screens and setting anymore to the sdcard. It says "An error occurred while trying to create the backup. Please make sure the SD card is available." I'm on Cognition 4.1.1 ROM and these issues only seemed to start after I installed SP1.
Anyone have any ideas?

Strangely, I was just able to get access using the same cable and laptop that wasn't working previously. I connected the cable to a different USB port and it recognized the drive (albeit very slowly), then popped up a "disk scan" notice. I unchecked the "fix/repair" boxes and allowed it to scan -- which took about 10 minutes -- then it started working (no errors reported, btw). I'm wondering if recently I disconnected the cable without turning off sharing USB-mode first and got the internal SD card a bit wonky. Seems to have cleared up now. We'll see about the next time I want to connect it, though...

Ah, the joy of computers. The devices that are supposed to be the most logical and aren't. There is a good chance that the phone wasn't disconnected properly at one time. Glad you got it working.
Also, always good to plug in a USB device into a different port if it doesn't work the first time. The port you were first plugging into might not be getting the power needed to connect the phone properly.

I have noticed lately at times that when I plug in my USB-webcam, I get a notification that "this device will run faster when connected to a 2.0 USB port." But all my ports (according the Dell site for my laptop model) are 2.0. Considering what I paid for this laptop nearly four years ago compared to what I paid for my wife's new one at Christmas that is much more powerful, ya, computer joy. Maybe she won't notice if I switch them.
I got it working, but wow.. I don't know how this even makes sense... -_-
I have a USB extension coming from my desktop onto my desk so its easy for me to plug in stuff like USB cable of my phone and what not.. I've been using this extension for so long with my phone without problems, but turns out, when I plugged the phone USB cable straight to the desktop rather than the extension.. It works!?
I have no idea how or why.. But at least it works now :\

I'm running windows 7 x64, and Cyanogen's 3.9.7 and suddenly my computer stopped recognizing my phone, it didn't replace the driver with something else, when I plug my phone in it doesn't even communicate with the computer. There is no drop down to mount, and the computer doesn't even see it as being a connected device, I've tried USBDeview and it doesn't show up as being connected at all. I have no idea what to do. Help would be great.
Does it appear in Device Manager?

Nope, not at all.
Tried it with more then one usb cable? One of my cables went bad not too long ago... Also could try different usb port. If all else fails.. try it on the different computer just to rule out hardware issues. If it does not register on different PC then you may need to exchange you device...
Good luck
I've been using ADB the last couple of days to install apps on my Captivate and all of the sudden it stopped working today.
When I type 'adb devices' the phone comes up right away, but it shows offline.
I have tried reinstalling the drivers and Android SDK, but no luck. I've searched around and found some others with this issue, but haven't really found a fix that works for me.
Any idea why ADB would just stop working like that? I even performed a factory reset of the phone and put everything back to defaults.
Ok I almost pulled my hair out, but I found the problem.
For some reason, ADB does not work with the Samsung USB cable that came with the Captivate.
I switched to another USB cable and it works just fine.
Man, I really thought I was going crazy.

Yeah I buy that, I couldn't even get the thing to try and connect at all with out switching usb connections on my computer.
stock cable works. I just rooted and ran into that problem. In order to get around it if you cant get a diff cable, make sure that b4 you connect your phone to your pc you turn off your internet so it doesnt auto dl the drivers. b4 u connect, dl the drivers for your phone from the root thread. Plug your phone into ur comp with the internet off and close any pop ups. Go to device manager look for the notification labled usb or captivateand right click and select update. Select search from file on disk or select file (something like that, i forget) and scroll and select the folder where you extracted the usb drivers. Make sure the checkbox that says search subfolders is checked and click next to install. two more drivers will pop up in device manager after u install the first one. Repeat the same procedure for both of them and then you should be able to use adb just fine to root.
Just wanted to further confirm that using a different microusb cable works! I keep reinstalling the drivers but it kept showing the device was offline. Then I tried my old Nokia N85 cable and it worked like charm! So weird how usb cables aren't made equally, unless Samsung designed the cable to prevent using adb?
I had this issue for a little while, but I installed the Samsung Kies software (which contains drivers) and uninstalled the ADB drivers I had originally downloaded. It's worked like a charm since then.
Go to SamsungApps.com and then use the canada site, as the software isn't really available in the US yet.
I have had no problems using the stock cable on my Laptop and work PC, both are Win 7 32bit. The same cannot be said for my my main home PC which is Win 7 64bit. Neither the stock cable nor an after market cable worked with ADB.
For the 32bit OSes I installed the Kies software and the usb device gets installed correctly. for the 64bit OS, I installed the Kies software but could get the phone to connect correctly. I then tried to install the 64bit drivers that are floating around the web. The 64 bit drivers worked enough to get the phone connected to the PC but when I tried to query "adb devices" the phone would always appear as offline. I've tried several things: install/uninstall drivers and software on the PC, restart the PC and Phone, change cables. Nothing seems to help on Win 7 64bit.
It seems to me that there might be a bug in the 64bit driver, though I have no proof of a bug.
I am going to keep playing with the 64bit OS until i figure it out or get so annoyed a that I just give up.
I'll be using my Win 7 32 bit laptop until I get the 64bit PC to work.

i've been able to install .apk's with my win7 64-bit ADB :O
all i did was install Samsung Kies.
i don't think i've ever had a problem...?
EDIT: i'm using the cable that came with it and no problems yet.
I'm running win 7 x64 and Kies did the trick for me. I haven't had a single issue connecting my phone since I did that.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
Justa dding to the anecdotes.
I was having problems with the included cable using the front USB. It would show as Device Offline, also the charging wasn't very strong.
I switched to the onboard USB at the back of the case, and adb worked fine with the included cable.
Looks like I'll be picking up a couple extra USB cables so I won't have to continuously do the desk dive everytime I need to use it somewhere else.
1. I installed the kies drivers first and it would say offline when i checked the device through the cmd prompt.
2. I then installed the adb drivers and it then said the device was online.
3. i then rooted the phone and went on my way. i then tried it a second time and it said device offline.
4. nothing changed during this time except that i turned off debug mode, changed it to mass storage and plugged it back into the usb to transfer some files.
5. on returning to debug mode it no longer tells me the device is online. i have tried different USB ports as well.
6. i deleted the drivers, and reinstalled and it still says offline.
very frustrating.
wow. i forgot to try plugging it into another USB port. that worked. sorry about previous post.
I am running Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit on my laptop,
I installed the samsung 64bit drivers, it was an installer i found on the web, not the kies installer packaged driver one.
i changed my setting on my captivate to Mass Storage.
I mounted usb and everything works, by that I mean i was able to ADB like no tomorrow without any issues.
Then I made the mistake of installing Samsung Kies and that messed up my previous drivers and I wasnt able to ADB to my phone. I had to uninstall Samsung Kies and my phone still wasnt being found I still couldnt ADB.
my solution to fixing was restarted my phone and computer, without my phone connected to USB i re-installed the Samsung 64bit Driver Package, then hooked up my phone made sure Mass Storage was selected and Mounted USB and bam was able to ADB again.
hope this helps! also i have been doing videos helping people with issues with samsung's captivate on youtube, youtube.com/johnnyzappone if anyone wants to check em out, if anyone has any suggestions please let me know and id be happy to release a video!
I resolved my issues, I plugged the stock cable into one of the rear usb ports and the device is now available on my main PC Win 7 64 bit.

Confirmed this made my device stop appearing as offline with adb.
How it is even possible that the cable prevents (only) adb access on the PC, I have no idea.
I have windows 7 and mac osx and I can use adb with both using the stock USB.
i have debugging active.
lol @ the samsung cable.
i've 2 indentic cables here, one doesn't work. plugged in the other one and this one works...
maby its just a strange issue on windows, next time try to pull out the cable and put in back in then connect your device again this should work.... :s
because earlier the cable just worked fine and now it doesn't.. so good luck xD

can you not get into download mode using hardware buttons?
The usb cable that came with the phone is not working for you even after installing the proper samsung usb drivers? What windows OS are you trying on?
Make sure it is a data cable and not a charge only cable. Look at the tag that is on the cable and it should tell you what it is.
Like UpNSmoke said.. make sure your using the correct cables.
It is suggested that if your having issues with a computer recognizing your phone to plug the cable in to the USB Port that is on your Motherboard on your Computer.
I would also suggest that if you haven't already - use the drivers that are in Design Gears ODIN 1 Click Back to Stock (links also provided in the sticky here as well). These are the one's I've been using since I've had my phone - and haven't had any issues.
Another thing you can do is - plug in your phone - and then re-install the drivers while the phone is plugged in.
And lastly.. I seem to have better luck with my Windows 7 box then my work's Windows XP machine. Good luck..

Tried ODIN 1-click and every machine I've run it on is windows 7.
I haven't had any luck getting a decent connection to my phone yet either. I've tried several different drivers, x86 and x64, different versions of each. Different versions of Kies and Kies Mini. I've tried suggestions from online. Nothing has gotten me anything reliable. I almost forgot, I've tried 2 different phones also. It would be one thing if it just NEVER worked, but for it to work sometimes and other times not, mostly not, is frustrating. I'm afraid to try a new ROM since everything I see about unbricking a Captivate requires a USB connection.
You definitely need to have to have a working USB connection before flashing... and plus you need it to return to stock using ODIN.
Have you tried re-installing the drivers with the phone plugged in and no dice?
I've tried plugged in, not plugged in. USB hub, USB motherboard connection. Just about everything I've seen online I've tried. Some don't work at all and others work briefly but usually within a day refuse to work more than it does work.
I'm running Winxp SP3, Captivate with Cog2.8b3
I had installed the USB drivers for 32bit provided on these forums (before connecting my phone), then connected my phone and had windows throw up the "usb device not recognized" message. There's no android/samsung/etc. listing under the device manager.
Anybody else had this problem, or know how to fix it?
I had similar issues and reinstalled and uninstalled everything multiple times and that didnt fix anything. My suggestion would be to try a new USB cable or each of your USB ports.
My cable that came with my captivate was actually bad. It would charge the phone and even attempt to register with Windows by eventually fail with the same error you listed above.

I've tried each of my ports; the cable had worked previously, fairly recently, but I have a new windows install. I'll try a new one when I get back from school.
Try removing all bits of the USB Driver after un-installing them.. then try re-installing. XP is a pita with USB devices sometimes. Well windows in general for that matter.
I've been having USB driver issues for a while now with my captivate (On serendipity 4.2 right now, finally decided to try to get to the root of this issue and update); I've used the SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_x86.exe (and I am on 32 bit Windows XP SP3), and have always received a "USB Device has malfunctioned" message whenever I have tried to plug my Captivate in.
My computer has 2 USB Ports; one of them has a USB 1.0 hub plugged in (which has a keyboard & Plantronics Microphone plugged in as well) and the other has a Logitech mouse. I've tried both of the main USB ports, as well as the hub. The hub's been plugged in when installing and uninstalling (I'm trying to give as many details as possible in the hopes that one of these might trigger a red flag).
Anybody know what the problem might be? Maybe I've been uninstalling the drivers incorrectly? (I've done it through device manager & restarting the computer before reinstalling)
EDIT: No Kies on this computer, has never been installed; I have been mounting the device via the notifications menu but it still gives me a malfunction error.
Hmmm.. You've done everything that I would try as well...
At this stage I can't really say it's anything specific... Have you tried it on any other computers by any chance? Or got it working before?

Should mention that I got it working by turning on USB Debugging mode on after installing the drivers, then plugging the device in, and after that it began to function as normally.
So is it working now or not? Sorry, the latest post is a bit confusing...
I think that's a known issue. I usually can not get my computer to recognize my captivate without enabling debugging
