It's not recognized when the phone is on? Seeing as you posted this topic using your phone I assume so lol. Have you tried restarting your computer?
You can download the correct drivers here.

Make sure you are using the oem usb cable. I had the same problem, changed cables and it worked
some cheap cables are for charging ... bt headsets and other stuff the data cables dont connect, its just for power.

You gotta make sure that your usb port is directly connected to your motherboard (usually back of your computer).
same usb port that has always worked. ive tried them all by now anyway
now i cant tell you how this helped but... i downloaded drivers to a different computer odin crashed while flashing reflashed and im 100% stock atm. Didnt do ANYTHING to my computer plugged it in and its working.

Duno what happened but I'm glad it worked out for you
I'm having the same problem with my captivate after flashing REDROM. It won't recognize it if I have USB debugging turned on...
i have a theory... were you on a GB or other i9000 based rom/kernel???
well, im still having a problem getting my computer to recognize the phone, i have to mess with it for a a while to get it to work. i really want to flash anew 2.3.3 rom but without being able to get everything working right im stuck in 2.1
is this a problem with my cord or the connection on my phone? or something weird with my phone after flashing it a lot. its currently back to odin stock, i have been trying to master clear it with no luck

continiuum miui and cyanogen mod are the only things ive tried to flash
well it looks like i'm done. my phone will not show up on my computer and its currently bricked, although i have no issue getting it to download mode i cant do anything with it. unless someone knows some magic, looks like im downgrading to my gf's 4 year old busted up BB
Guys, this problem while connecting to the PC body is stupidly charging .... Even in the download mode Odin does not see a body that could be? Connect other Cappy-all OK.

it must be a powered usb hub, on my buddies laptop only 1 out of 4 usb ports saw his phone.
if you can get into download mode you arent bricked.
try installing i9000 drivers, or try another computer.
I came up with this a while back. Could very well be the same issue.
Let me start by saying I'm flash happy, and everyone that knows me personally, tells me to just quit jacking with my phone. NOT A CHANCE! I'm on my 3rd Cappy and shouldn't have ever exchange it again. I only had to in the beginning, because I was a newbie and had not know enough, but to get me in trouble.
I presume that this should work on all Windows OS's. I personally am running Vista Enterprise x86.
My symptoms:
Plug in phone to the usb and it there was about a 15% chance off being able to mount to usb, and Windows recognizing as a mass storage device. I tried un-installing drivers and re-installing and it would work some of the time, until the point came when parts of the driver install would fail. Then to the point when it was just completely unrecognizable. I thought I had it fixed because it seemed intermittent. In the middle of flashing to stock, something interrupted communication between the pc and my phone. Restarted the phone and attempted the flash again. Got a little farther and froze again. I had to use another pc that I had never connected my phone to before and I was able to use my jig to trigger download mode, because no buttons combinations would allow it into download mode.
This got me thinking that it was specific to my pc and not my cable or my phone.
My resolution:
I went straight to the registry and went to find. I deleted every entry that came up for "i897" and "i9000" excluding what was listed in the system volume information, as I didn't have permissions to remove any keys. I didn't keep count, but I probably deleted 300-400 registry keys that pointed to my phone. It seems as if with each developers rom that I had flashed, there was an entry for a different device. Don't quote me on that, because it is just my personal consensus. I also un-installed the samsung drivers, the unknown device driver, kies software, and anything associated with samsung. I noticed that next to all of the i9000 instances, the hex key for me started with 1000ee. So I also searched for the first part of that key trying to ensure that all instances of the device. Lastly, I deleted the samsung folder from program files.
I installed the samsung drivers package commonly listed in all of the other threads for x86 operating systems. I plugged in my phone and watched as each and every driver installed successfully. Keep in mind different drivers are installed depending on if you have usb debugging on/off, and the options for if the preferences on you phone are set to media, storage, or kies. I have multiple usb ports, however testing has shown me that, for me and my setup, I can plug into the port that I used when installing the drivers the final time, I am able to connect consistently. Earlier today, I tried to plug into a different usb port and it was an unknown device. I am led to believe, this is because I didn't un-install the unknown device on this particular port.
If you intend to work in the registry, please remember to always back it up first. You can always restore.
Hopefully my findings can help you as they did me. Happy flashing and I would like to thank the community for the dedication to assisting each other and the developers, for making flashing, better than crack cocaine. Flashing rom's doesn't make you twitch near as much as a crackhead.
Well since you can't use your phone you should sell it to me

Any ideas?
TomByrne94
What operating system are you using on your PC? I wasn't able to correctly install the drivers under Vista, I've only managed to get the thing running on an XP system.
Windows 7, i've installed the drivers a few different times now and they seemed to work each time...
Problem resolved.

Any chance of sharing the solution, in case any other person is having the same issue and lands on this page after a search? Thanks!
I just reinstalled the drivers a load of times and made sure that mass storage mode wasn't enabled...
Hello ppls.
I've read some similar threads about this problem, tried some solutions, didn't worked and they didin't really had my situation.
So lets begin. My phone isn't recognized by my computer of anysort. When i plug the device i get this error: Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43) .Tried solutions for the error with no succes.
I run Windows 7 64 bit,4gb Ram, Intel Quad Core 2,2 Ghz. I downloaded the drivers for the device from samsung, bummer when i manually try to update the drivers and set the path to where the drivers are it says The device is already up to date,even with online search.
What i've tried so far:
1. Tried in normal condition with KIES. Debugging off.
2. Debuggind on. Same
3. Different PC with windows 7 32 bits, same error, same solutions that don't work
4. Updating .Net framework
5. Installing a program that automaticly detects drivers. It didnt even see it.
6. Checking the cable for corrosion or anything else faulty. Cleaned it even.
7. Yelling are the stupid phone !!
Thank you.

Have you tried with a different USB cable?
No because i connected succesfully my friends galaxy fit with it, so the cable is not the problem.
thry manualy installing galaxy s drivers on pc?
Uninstall and reinstall the drivers.
Try different drivers.
Make sure you're using a Samsung wrong with the Samsung drivers.
Use a different PC.
Keep trying!
I gave up...I tried everything.Spent hours of searching forums and applying solution, nothing works... Tried On 3 different pc's. 1 with win 7 64bit, and the rest win 7 32 bit. I can't manually install the drivers either. Says there are already up to date when i set a location for the drivers to detect...I can't even use it as mass storage.

To try using different drivers you would need to uninstall the current driver.
And just to be sure, you didn't flash to CM7/MIUI recently, not realizing Samsung drivers won't recognize your phone anymore, right? Nexus S drivers for those ROMs.
Its on the original ROM i think. Recently bought it second hand, 1 year old.
I couldn't find different drivers...except 32 bit and 64bit, but they all are the same version. Maybe post a link or something. Mine are 1.4.4.

Just for future reference, this site is filled with tutorials on how to do just that. In fact, that is what this site is all about—new ROMs, new ideas, and how to get them onto your device. Look around next time.

Dude i'm not the kinda of guy that doesn't research first. Like i mentioned i tried everything i found with no effect. The thing is, the problem reappeared after a day, with the new rom. Took it back to the service, said its a virus from some apps i installed...Is it possible? Thing is, it worked even after i restored all my apps.
I couldn't change the rom either because neither Odin or Heimdall saw my phone, if that is what you reffered to. If you know how to resoft a phone without the pc recognizing it (not even as a composite USB device in download mode or debugmode) and just Showing in Odin or Heimdall "Unknown Device" and failed at installing ClockworkMod, be my guest and redirect me to the tutorial, or tell me how to do it.
Thx

Throw it against the wall then. You ask us for help, disregard all of it, and then update us on what the service desk told you. If you will only listen to them, then don't ask us, kay? Appreciated.
Hi, there.
Actully, the rahbert's question is not bad. How can i use Mobile Odin if i can't root the device?
Or, how can I root without PC? Is it possible? I have exactly the same problem:
Nexus S (I9020), ICS 4.0.4(stock). When I plug the device: the error is reported(Code 43).
Should I try wipe data/factory reset? I really don't want to do this, because there is another good question: How can I fully backup my data(Titanium and so on) without root access? Can you suggest me something? Thanks.

Hi,
I currently encounter a problem with my Optimus 2X.
I can use my usb port to load the phone but when I plug it in a computer (I tried with several computers running XP / seven / ubuntu ... and several cables). But my phone doesn't seems to be recognized by the computers.
I'm running 2.6.32.45 cyanogenmod. I wanted to go back to the original rom but my backup seems corrupted
Does anywone knows how I can go back to the original rom ? (hopping it will fix my usb issue ....)
regards.

Thank's a lot it works perfectly !
I now encounter a new problem, when I try to update my phone using the LG software, it stops at about 30% (looks like it's impossible to connect the phone with the software).
Edit -> I've found an old stock rom and installed it on my phone : everything works perfectly thanks a lot !!!
Guys
I'm running CM Nightlies and I can no longer connect my phone to any pc via USB.
Some have said I would have to flash phone back to an original rom in order to fix then flash CM back over it?
Is this really only way as worried will lose all my internal drive stuff.
You can try to change your drivers it works very well !
If you wan to save your stuff without using USB you can use FTP thrue à WIFI to send stuff on your PC.
I got the same problem since about 4 months. When connecting the phone to the computer, no usb icon appears on the notification bar, also there is nothing happening in the device manager on the computer. Charging always works.
This is still confirmed after using different computers, different usb cables, different usb ports, and 4 different versions of the drivers (up to the most recent 3.6 drivers) even it should still show something even with no drivers. This also occurs in "software update" mode.
Also I tried different ways of plugging in the cable on the phone side (slow, fast, with pressure up/down/side).
This is with CM7, CM9alpha, and just for test also with MIUI.
The odd thing is, in this time span, it randomly worked about 4 times in these 4 months. Last time was just after I updated to CM9 alpha it worked the first time I plugged it in (was surprised with that), but it stopped working too.
For me it seems it's something with the usb chip set in the phone.
The problem here is, returning the phone for RMA will cause problems with CM on the phone, as they probably will say it's because of a custom rom, and there is no (easy) way to get stock rom with branding back on the phone (the only one maybe with a nandroid backup of stock from someone else?).
I'm having the same trouble as dedors. Absolutely no USB data connection. Can't get anything going in nvflash, smart flash, recovery, or when running normally. I've tried uninstall and reinstall the drivers, multiple cables, multiple computers, multiple OS including win7 xp and Ubuntu. USB debugging enabled, disabled, wiping the SD cards, trying with no external sd card. The only glimmer I've seen of it working was when I plugged it into my old XP laptop before and it prompted the computer to install a driver for the webcam that I'd mistakenly uninstalled. I tried cleaning out the USB port in case it had a bunch of lint stuck in it and the cable just wasn't sitting properly.
I don't know at what point it stopped working but it has had no serious abuse that could cause any physical damage.
Oddly it still charges just fine.
Can't return for RMA as it's running Cyanogen 9 and I've no easy way to get it back to stock. I also had this problem on Cyanogen 7. I could probably flash a stock rom onto the phone but I wouldn't be able to nvflash the original recovery.
A lot of people seem to have had USB trouble with this phone.
Happy to provide any logs that may help the diagnosis though you may have to explain how I can acquire them as I only know basic flashing.
Sorry for the lengthy first post, trying to be thorough.
Thanks in advance for any help offered.
I can't think of any solution to your problem (in my opinion it seems like a faulty USB port, it seems to be "popular"), but I can suggest you a workaround... it's actually the workaround I've been using cuz I also have trouble with USB... get an SD card and a USB to SD card adapter...
Or that ftp/wireless trick that was mentioned above, I actually don't know how to do this but I would definitely like to
Yeah that does seem to be the case. At least I can still flash roms and so on. So long as it lasts me the rest of the year I don't mind grabbing a new one then.
Anyone who knows about logs for trouble shooting, can you suggest a way that I might try to diagnose the problem. If I can be sure the port is stuffed and nothing I can do will fix it I'm ok with that but I'd like to know whether I should keep looking for solutions or give up on it.
Cheers.
Hello,
I've got a new issue with my phone updating CM10 and today it's impossible to boot.
I've tried to plug it on my computer in order to flash it but got the same probleme as the first post : nothing happened when plugged on my computers.
Does anyone got this 3.6 drivers somewhere ? seems that the new ones from LG didn't works ....
I have the same problem
I how bought my phone (LG P990), 6 months old, used. I come home and try to connect it to the computer and it won't be recognized. Somehow I manage over that code 1809 # * 990 # to enter the menu and play with the ports I was able to connect to the computer and do the official update to 2.3.4. over LG software.Once again, this comp will not recognize phone (only charging), but using code 1809 # * 990 # and tampering on port settings it was able to connect to the computer.
Now after some time do stupidity and Root my mobile phone(SuperOneClick) and install clockwork-5.0.0.3 and via zip CyanogenMod 9. I tried all the ways that exist but pc does not recognize the phone anymore. After some time, the official ICS update is coming, and now that you can not connect the comp how to update mobile phone. I do a recovery back to the official Android 2.3.4 (I had to change the partitions, 2.3.4 and ICS use different sized partitions) and I run a mobile phone that is again official 2.3.4 and try entering the menu (1809 # * 990 #) by tampering with ports settings I tried to make comp to recognize the phone but to no avail. I tried to change the usb cable, use a different USB port on comp but nothing, no response just recharging.
After googling I managed to find recovery from ICS V28g and I managed to install it to have a functional phone. I contacted 2 service both refused to accept phone because rooted. I tried all the tricks without battery holding vol + and - to enter into APX mode, nothing then Power and vol - S / W mode that worked but comp ga would not recognize until now even that does not work (appears LG logo and when S / W should appear then goes off) and all the other tricks that I found on the internet, reinstall the drivers, I do not know what else.
Oh yeah and I noticed entering the settings on mobu System Settings / About Phone / Software Information / Baseband version - unknown

Hi,
I've found an old 3.6 driver, but nothing works even with it ... I think I must change my phone -_-
Hi,
I've search thru the forums and tried several things, but haven't found a solution.
My problem is that I no longer can make a USB-connection to my O2X.
The only thing that works in the micro-usb is charging. What I tried:
- Smartflash (power-up without battery while holding vol-)
- NVFlash (power-up without battery while holding both vol-buttons)
- Ordinary USB-connection (flash-drive)
- Cleaned it for dust
All of this was done on different windows machins (WinXP and Win7), all USB-ports and different USB-cables (inlcuding one that I know has worked before). Windows don't even show me the device.
The reason why I want to flash is that I think the current baseband (that I flashed) is not the best for my phone. So I want to try another baseband.
Do any of you have a suggestion on how to fix my phone or is the hardware toasted?
Best regards
Anders

Try going to Hardware and Sound and then Devices and Printers in the Control Panel. Maybe it'll show there.

You may try in a virgin PC where no USB drivers have been installed. Best would be format PC reinstalll WIN OS and try NVFLASH or SMARTFLASH after installing LG USB drivers. I have also faced similar problems and solved them in different PCs either friends or office. I somehow feel LGs drivers are badly written and not very smooth functioning. In fact I (and many others) have bricked O2X trying to upgrade to official GB updates by using LG PC suite and drivers.
This is only my suggestion. I did not had to format my PC any point of time. Don't curse me if this fails. This is only one of the trials and errors.
Maybe I should try from a Linux live-cd to check if it's windows or the phone who's acting strangely.

I got the exact same problem and after searching the net there are a lot of people having the same issue too.
Don't want to sound negative but the majority never got it to run again. For some it automagically started working again.
I got it to run only on Stock Froyo, no stock GB and no ICS with all the ICS Kernels available.
The thing which helped me on Froyo was: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=28985033&postcount=5
Unfortunately CM9 has no secret menu.
I once had it recognized with Jarvis Kernel on Paranoidandroid for a second and had a hotreboot. Then never again.
I'm pretty sure the PC and the LG Drivers make no difference in this case, as I got 5 different PCs running different OS for testing and they never made a difference.

Does the ROM has anything to do with Smartflash- and NVflash-modes? My guess is that they have nothing to do with each other. So my problem should persist even though I try different ROMs. Correct me if I'm wrong.
I'll look into the Froyo-topic you linked to.
Strange. Now it suddenly works again. I didn't do anything from the last time. That's odd.
I don't think that the ROM specifically has to do with the problem.
Stock Froyo just happened to be the only ROM where switching USB connection modes made the device seen in device manager on Windows. (Although it required manual .inf driver clickery.)
I'm sure missing USB connectivity affects people in NVFlash as well.
In my case I can't do **** ranging from USB mass storage when booted up, ADB or NVFlash when booting.
However restoring to the Froyo nandroid makes everything working for me again.
oh oh, it looks like the same issue that i had... No PC-connection (Win/Linux) recognized the mobile via USB. No Chance to get it back to work.
I flashed back to stock (very difficult without NVFlash...) and then send it back LG Service for repearing. After three weeks i got it back. They changed the hole mainboard so i got a new IMEI but USB works now again.

Yeah. It stopped working after I booted a couple of times
And it was only semi working, it didn't want to go into Smartflash-mode, only NVFlash and Flash-drive.
@aduck79,
Did you already try tonyp's modded adb drivers?

Nope, as I'm quite sure that it's not a matter of drivers.
Windows don't even detect the phone. So I think that the phone doesn't present itself.

Since you already tried changing cables, computers, and even windows & Linux, and since it works on and off, You're right - it isn't the rom nor the drivers. it does sound like the hardware is messed up where the cable connects.
Any chance you can get it serviced? Hope your warranty covers it.

Same problem, no solution
Hi,
I seem to have the same sort of problem with my phone.
I used to be able to connect my phone to my computer just fine until I upgraded it to Gingerbread. Or that is at least the last time the USB connection seemed to work.
I have looked all over the internet now to find a solution to the problem but can't find one. Hope you guys could help me on this.
My phone is an LG optimus 2x P990 with a stock ROM gingerbread 2.3.4
LGE Version LGP990-V20r
Kernel version 2.6.32.9
I've tried so far:
- rebooting phone and pc
- factory reset phone
- Use other pc's => didn't work
- Connect a samsung phone to my pc with my LG cable => did work
- uninstall and reinstall all the necessary drivers
- mass storage mode on and off
- Installed android SDK and looked for adb devices, none shown
- phone doesn't show in the computers device manager either
Although when I do connect the phone it starts charging and if I go to the tethering settings it does recognize the fact that it is connected through USB.
So why can't I get my PC to recognize the phone.
I really need it cause I would like to root my phone to install a custom ROM.
I have tried rooting it with Gingerbreak as well, but that doens't seem to work either.
Thanks for the help
I just made a recovery.log in CWM:

It mentions something about USB in the bottom. Maybe it's a software issue after all?
