Hey guys, my girlfriend recently purchased an LG Thrill, beast of a phone, and I've been meaning to do some app testing with it but I can't seem to get USB Debugging to work. If I connect the phone to my computer with debugging off it will give me to option to mount storage as intended, but as soon as I enable USB Debugging the computer will no longer recognize the device. The notification that debugging is enabled pops up for a second but then goes away.
Has anyone else come across this issue?

Do you have !both! drivers installed from LG? I think that's your problem.
Make sure you have all the drivers. One of my friends had this issue also.

Yeah, installing drivers fixed the problem. I don't know why I thought all Android devices would use the same ADB drivers. Thanks for the help guys.

So I'm having an issue connecting my captivate to my Windows 7 64bit machine. (Seems to be a common problem) I've installed the drivers from the posts on these forums. I have changed the USB settings to Mass storage also. If I plug my phone in, Windows will "sometimes" recognize it and the internal and external SD will show up in "My Computer" This only happens sometimes and moving the plug to other USB ports gets it to recognize. I'm then able to mount and everything works fine. But the problem I'm having is USB debugging mode. Any time I have this turned on and plug my phone in, Windows will "attempt" to install a driver but after awhile fail. I've tried to manually install the drivers but no luck. Anyone know why just USB debugging will not work? I tried it on my friends computer who has the exact same version of Windows and the exact same drivers for the phone and it works find every time I plug it in, USB debugging or not. So strange.
Thanks
Try a different USB port on your PC.

Ok so got it working with the back USB port... so strange that I have to do that. Is this something that will be fixed in the future?

I don't think anyone knows where the problem lies. Seems more likely it is the PC or a windows 7 x64 issue.
Hey guys today my second USB port stopped working for ODIN.
The front two on my PC don't work for it and I got 4 left on the back, is there any way to solve this issue?
uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers then rebooting has always fixed it for me. if that isn't working i've got no clue. sorry i couldn't be more helpful i guess.
Yea I know but same problem.
I'm anxiously saving money for a GS2 and Netbook.

also have the same problem with my old pc, two front usb don't work with odin, but work with anything else.
I've had this same problem, and I haven't been able to fix it. But now I've switched to Ubuntu and Heimdall.
I don't know if this will work for you, but this USBDeview looks like it might do the trick: http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/usb_devices_view.html
I assume you are using Windows, and if you are, there is one trick that I have used in the past to fix other devices. This *might* work for you. Try removing the non present devices from device manager. In order to do this, you need to Google how to view Nonpresent devices in device manager. This trick will show you every device that has every been plugged into each USB port. You can then go in and remove the drivers that were previously installed for your phone on that port. Whenever you remove the nonpresent device, next time it is plugged in, the computer will think that it has never been plugged into that USB port before.
Hope that helps!
Im serious about the new cable. I had a problem with the default usb cable before until a friend gave me his mt4g usb and never had a problem again. I think its a data miscommunication with the t959 stock usb. I lost any ODIN connection on all ports until I switched. Try it. Youll see.

That's actually what USBDeview does.
Ok, so I just got this samsung captivate and I want to root it. I can't get anywhere close to rooting it because when I plug it in via USB, windows doesn't do anything. I have my phone set to USB debugging and sometimes I have to unplug/replug the mini usb from the phone several times before it actually goes into "USB Debugging" mode. I have installed the necessary drivers but windows still does not acknowledge that I am even plugging in the phone via USB. I have tried downloading kies and that didn't work either. I don't think anything is going to work until I can make windows acknowledge that the USB device is even connected. I have also tried the *#7482# trick and it didn't help. Could it be another setting on my phone or something that is preventing my phone from connecting to my computer? It is really starting to agitate me because I want to get rid of all this crappy bloatware.
Maybe this stickied thread in the General forum can help... Captivate Connection Issues....

Turn USB debugging off and check if it sees it then...

This is a quick tip for people with Windows XP who do not see their USB connected Android device in Explorer.
I had the correct cable, MTP mode enabled, the latest USB drivers and the computer was recognizing my phone as
an MTP device but it wasn't showing in Windows Explorer.
It turns out the problem is that the MTP protocol came after Windows XP so it needs to be installed.
The only way to do that is to install the Windows Media Player 10 or newer.
Was USB debugging enabled? I disabled it and it shower up right away.

This particular problem was there with and without USB Debugging.
I also had trouble installing the driver with USB Debbuging turned on.
My problem is that I had manually disabled Windows Media Player years a go because I hate it that much.
I posted this to give people in my situation the heads-up because it took me forever to figure it out.

Hi there,
Longtime lurker and I wanted to post this in the development thread but the post counter wont let me but I am hoping someone might be able to help.
I am running Nik_Project_X and it seems I have developed a problem with my USB connection. Now, I have done a search and scoured the internet and the threads that sound similar don't seem to have a resolution.
When I plug in the USB cable, I get no promt on the phone to choose the connection, my (Win7 Home) PC pops up the unrecognized device message and in device manager the item is listed under USB as Unknown Device.
I have uninstalled all HTC Sync / Android SDK / Adobe Air and reinstalled the drivers a number of times and always the same result. I have made sure my Norton Antivirus / firewall is off. USB Debug is on and Fastboot is off. I've tried updating the drivers and pointing to the folder but I just get told that the drivers are the right ones and up to date?!
The phone wont mount in recovery either and I am basically at a loss... other than this issue the phone seems to work perfectly. Im thinking I should just change my ROM but thought I would ask here just in case anyone had the same problem or a simple fix?
Thanks guys! *crosses fingers*
I've had this issue, it was a hardware problem though. any chance your USB port is broken? try pulling the cable towards you with the screen facing you.
Try cleaning the USB port
Worked for me!
