I was able to use adb on my Windows 7 x64 Home edition prior to rooting
After using z4root to root my Galaxy S - I9000 running Froyo
no matter what i tried , i was always unsuccessful
I unrooted using z4root and tried it but it didnt work..
Rooted it again didnt work
Thought may be to delete the device in device manager and then reinstall it using the drivers provided by Android sdk and NOT the windows update one...
Followed many others steps by various blogs and i know i am not doing it incorrectly but still it doesnt work...
I have tried to put everything in an image ,an expert mite need to understand my problem
If you are not able to see the image properly try this:

Did you make sure that in your SGS, Settings/Applications/Development the USB debugging mode is ticked?
Have you tried to reinstall Kies (to install / reinstall necessary drivers)?

What i did was deleted everything under Universal Serial Bus Controllers, uninstalled Kies and drivers of Samsung and restarted my box. and installed Kies again, set usb debugging again and connected it and Voila ! It works flawlessly now
Thanks a lot for your advice. Was getting mad after following so many posts on the internet. Finally everything is working fine now...

Hello guys,
To cut a long story short, my cousin wants me to hack is Samsung Galaxy GT i9000.
I rooted his phone in August and it was working perfectly (I play around with my Desire quite a lot) and since then he's tried to get rid of the root to update to official Froyo and something has happened to the USB.
I have tried to install every driver known to man kind to get this phone recognised by 3 laptops and a Desktop PC. 1 XP, 1 Vista and 2 Windows 7. I have been using USB Debug Mode, I've tried it without Debug mode, I've tried every USB slot, I've uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers, kies, even deleted the phone from Device Manager and retried that... and nothing has happened. I can also get in to Download mode but unfortunately the computer still doesn't recognise the USB so therefore I cannot use Odin to flash the phone.
Any help? Cheers
Dan

Are you using x86 or x86_64 OS? Both of these drivers are available at: http://code.google.com/p/insanity/downloads/list -- try 'em?

Tried all that already mate, but I tried again just in case, and nope.. No avail whatsoever. This is majorly frustrating now.
I can access Android Recovery (eventhough originally Clockworkmod was on there, but my cousin has done some strange things to this phone) so I think if I can find a verified signed update.zip, I can install something through that no problem, via the Internal SD Card + "apply: update.zip"?
Oh and another thing, when I put the USB Cable in to the Computer and in to the SGS, the option for Charging, Mass Storage, Tethering etc doesn't come up..
Any light whatsoever?

Samsung Galaxy Tab USB Debugging not working right
Not Able Connect P1000 to PC with USB Debugging ON
Connects prefect without USB Debugging active, Move files backs and forwards no problems, Need Some Sorter extra drivers or Something.
Can't use Z4root or SuperOneClick until I sort it out
Neither work at present
Same On two P1000s, SuperOneClick worked on one but that was just got lucky after trying 25 times, other one couldn't get lucky tried all sorts of ideas I could think of, need some fresh ideas.
Any Ideas?
Well,
U need to have Usb debugging turned on. Then u also need working drivers. U can find the drivers in the restockpackage on the overcome site.
Remember u can also just use adbwireless and connect via localip!
Hi, looking for some help with a soft-bricked SGS i9000.
It is bricked to the point that it only shows the 'Phone--!--Computer' when switched on, or when attempting to access Recovery Mode.
I can access Download mode absolutely fine, but Windows refuses to recognise the device when it is plugged in, therefore it doesn't show up in Odin, therefore I can't flash a new ROM.
Is there anything I can try to get Windows/Odin recognising it?
(Someone on another thread suggested just unplugging and replugging the phone until Windows recognises it - should I give this a try?)
Thanks.
I assume you have tried reinstalling the drivers?
Yeah, I've removed the device from device manager, reinstalled the drivers and re-plugged it.
Then I've tried updating the drivers via Device Manager - the message I get is that the best drivers are already installed.

Uninstall whatever drivers you have installed at the moment and read this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/sho...an always uninstall and install Samsung Kies.
try a different usb port, sometimes you can actually fool windows with that, i have had the same a couple of times, rebooting your pc or using a other pc sometimes works...
can you enter to download mode? It should be recognised by odin. If not you need an usb jig.
I had the same thing, so i looked around and someonle suggested installinog nexus S drivers and Odin recognizes your phone!!
It really works.

Happy new year all,
I have a 8.9 wifi only 32gb amazon.com version 7310.
I can’t get it to connect to my windows PCs (multiple PCs) ANYMORE…I have the drivers installed, but when I plug it in, windows will ask me for the driver and when it tries to install it I get an error (device not installed properly).
Some history:
I have the usb driver (“GT-p7510_USB_Driver_v1_3_2360_0-Escape.exe”) installed from the thread: “[GUIDE]Root, Bootloader Mode, ODIN, Recoveries & NANDROID Backup [7300/7310]”
Fresh off the box I hooked the tab up to my windows XP PC using the above driver and my PC recognized it. Also ODIN connected too.
I installed CWM (“Overcome_CWM_Recovery_v5.1.2.6_P73xx.zip”) from the above thread and rooted the tab using the root file (“Root.zip”) also from the above thread.
After that I couldn’t get the tab to be recognized from my PCs. But ODIN still works.
BTW, I’ve also tried Samsung Kies but it did not work (couldn’t connect to the tab).
I did a hard reset but I still have the same problem!!!
I need to be able to move files from my PC to the tablet as fast as possible. Wifi works but it is slower than usb 2.0!!!
Any help?
Thank you,
Have you tried uninstalling the drivers, restarting, then installing again? Sometimes Windows is a bit iffy. Also, the drivers from Kies are kinda different and tend to conflict (happened to me once). Another tip I'll give you: certain ROMs tend to hate having USB Debugging set to ON at Settings > Applications > Development. They just won't connect through USB while having that set to ON. I found this behavior on Android 3.1 ROMs, haven't had it in the KJ5 firmware and it's been almost two months with it. Best of lucks solving this!
issue solved by re installing the kies
Thank you for your suggestion.
Re installing kies and the latest kies update solved the issue.
I'm trying to root my friend's Rogers Captivate i896 using Odin but can't get the computer to recognize the device. I tried installing the drivers mentioned throughout other threads. I've tried uninstalling Keis, uninstalling the drivers, connecting to different USB ports, tried several computers/laptops running XP & Win7, tried USB desbugging on/off, tried "mass storage/kies firmware update/ask when connected."
He got the phone with Eclair and when it became available he then updated to Froyo through Keis. Ever since that update he hasn't been able to get any computer to recognize the phone. When I root my sgs i9000 I did have an issue with "mtp application error" that ended up being a missing driver but with this i896 model I've tried several different drivers and still nothing.
I can't root if the Odin can't 'see' it, or is there another way? Any others out there that have had success? Any help is much appreciated.
First of all, you don't use Odin to root it. Odin won't see it when the phone is on; only in download mode. You will just need SuperOneClick in order to root.
It is also unclear whether you are trying to say that Windows won't recognize it, or just Odin
Sent from my ICS Samsung Captivate
Windows in general won't recognize it. Even when I connect it to a mac, I hit the 'connect storage to pc" and it says it's connected but the internal/external hd do not mount. I used odin to root and put a rom (darky10.2) on my sgsi9000 and used the same instructions because the same steps also work for the captivate. I thought I read somewhere that I use Odin to go from Froyo to Gingerbread?
I'll looking at a SuperOneClick youtube vid & it says to connect the device to the pc & run superOneClick on the pc but how will that work if the issue is that the pc's can't detect the phone in the first place? btw thanks for the help.

Sure, you can use Odin/Heimdall to flash any stock firmware, but it's not going to help you if the phone can't be recognized. It sounds like something is physically malfunctioning. Are you using the USB cable that came with the phone? I suspect that either the cable or USB port is malfunctioning.
I thought the same thing but I am using the cable that came with the phone and I tried different ports. I also tried different laptops running different versions of windows. So strange. Ah well thanks for the help.
I had a similar problem with my captivate before I changed the ROM, but only on one particularly stubborn computer. I ended up having to go through this process to get my phone to connect:
- Uninstall the USB driver
- Reboot computer
- Connect phone with debugging off
- Install USB driver
- Reboot computer
- Connect phone with debugging on.
After that, it worked just fine in whatever mode I wanted.
You may have already tried that process, but if not I hope it helps.
