Hey guys, I have a big(or not?) problem.
My phone doesn't recognize my SD Card and when I connect my phone to PC via USB Cable, I don't get a notification "USB Connected". But I noticed that this isn't about USB Cable or PC, it's just about the SD Card. So we are going on this.
Also I can't get to flash mode by pressing back and plugging USB Cable, it just charges the phone. So that mean I can't use SEUS or similar ****?
I searched this on google and tried something like Automount SD app, factory reset, formatting SD Card to FAT or FAT32 but these didn't work.
I thought it was a easy problem but now I'm a bit afraid. What can I do now? Did I really messed up with that?
Edit: Guys, miraculously, I've solved the problem. I was trying something, I reinstalled PC Companion, SEUS and Gordon's Gate. Tried again but it was the same, no notification. And within a last hope, I tried to use SEUS, so I turned off the phone and started SEUS, miraculously I get to flash mode. Now it's working fine, thank you all for your help. I don't know how did it happen, I couldn't get to flash mode yesterday but now I can. Thanks again.
UP
Any Ideas? I can't listen music, use camera and much more... It really bothers me now.

When you plug in your USB cable, can your PC detect your phone? sometime could be your USB port problem. Try on other PC/laptop, and see the result. If you PC couldn't detect your phone/USB cable, it wouldn't install the correct drivers, so PCC is unless in this case, You have to install Golden Gate driver instead.
Other the other hand, to enter into flash mode, you need to fully power down the phone first ( you didn't describe this step in your post). Then only hold the "back" button and plug-in the USB cable.
@Xmaster8
Yeah, I've tried it on mum's phone and worked.
@saintckk
No, my pc detects the phone, but not at all. I mean that I can charge the phone but I can't transfer files to my SD card. And there is no notification on my phone "USB Connected.".
And my sist just used the PC to put some music on her SD Card, so there is no problem with the cable or computer. There must be something else.
And I didn't get what you mean with "fully power down". If you mean turning off phone, I did this. But if you mean spending all the battery, I didn't do this.

I flashed a new rom from the internal storage and apparently there's something wrong with it because the phone just hangs after the initial screen with the radio version and rom version!! Is there a way where I can get into the internal storage to put in a new rom? As far as I'm concern, bootloader still works (the rainbow screen) but I don't know what ot do after that...I've done many hard-resets but to no avail.
Please help!
if your bootloader works, yo can use your USB cable and computer to flash a new rom !
Hold volume down and hit the reset button. It will put you in the tricolor bootloader screen. In the white it says serial. Connect it to your usb cord. It should now say usb. Now flash the STOCK rom. Then try flashing the ROM you want.
stupid me, i formatted teh NAND before I posted this thread! Now when i plug in the USB cord, it still says "Serial" and my computer is not able to connect to it. Is there any other way???
See what happens if you now take out the SIM Card and do another hard reset.
It still says "serial"!! Are these my only options? Are there no other way?
That sounds bad. YOur Dimond is not picking up the connection to the PC via the USB cable. Can you try using a different cable also check the pins on the female USB are not bent as i've seen that happen to someone else on this forum.
EDIT: If you have one, try using another USB cable.
I try on another computer and miraculously it picked up the USB drive!! I then ran the RUU and got a working rom in there
Thank you for your help!
For some odd reason I can no longer get the the "serial" status to change to "usb". It charges but does not connect to activesync. I flashed many many times so I am not a noob at this but I might be making a noob mistake.
What I am using: SPL 1.54 (I use USPL 2.5). I am currently using Miri's v23 manilla 2.5. I am using the same pc (xp) and cables to flash.
What I've tried:
- used 3 different pc's and the original pc
- 4 different usb cables
- ticking/unticking the "enable faster data syncing" box in settings>connections>usb to pc
-ticking/unticking "allow usb connections" in activesync
-if I leave the cable in AND THEN put the phone in bootloader mode, the status is blank. When I remove the cable, it returns to "serial"
When the phone is on, it just doesn't seem to react (vista and xp)to the cable being plugged in. The led just shows that it's charging.
I pulled an all-nighter and I'm stumped.
Maybe you need to update the USB drivers. Same thing happened to me but it worked after updating the USB drivers as per this link.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=524619
I forgot the most important part-
Since the pc does not recognize that there's something plugged in, I cannot select the "HTC USB Sync" under device manager and proceed with updating the drivers. I don't think I need to but at this point I'm trying everything.
Unless there's another way of updating drivers without the phone showing up on the device manager...
Updated the usb drivers by plugging in an old htc device. The pc was able to recognize the other htc device and was able to switch from serial to usb.
But after the update, there was no improvement for the blackstone status.
Anyone? The phone still doesn't recognize the usb cable whether the phone is on or in bootloader, it just charges.
Any help is appreciated!

Seems something wrong with your device. Try to hard reset and do it again?
Or if you still cant connect to usb. there is another way to upgrade without connecting to pc. After upgrade to new ROM, try it again whether it can connect to pc or not? Here is some tips for you.
Connect your SD card to PC through microSD card. Copy all files from your SDcard to new folder in your PC. Then, right click on the microSDcard disk-->full Format by FAT32 (this step is very important).
After formatting SDcard, copy back all files to SDcard . Rename .nbh to BLACIMG.nbh (for Blacktone) and copy it to SDcard.
Insert your SDcard back to Touch HD. Turn off your device by Power button.
Go to Boot loader mode. Push and hold Vol. Down + press Power button.
After that your device with have a white screen with text " Press to power button for continue upgrade" press power button and it will start upgrade Rom.
You can check this video for more practical actions on youtube.(this video for HTC diamond2 but it's almost the same with Blacktone just different in rename step)
Hope it helps and cheer
Thanks for the tips =)
I've did a hard reset twice and still no luck.
I've tried to flash through SD but since I use USPL, it just hangs when I try.
If I have SPL 1.54.0000, is there something that can be flash through the SD without USPL?

I have not tried this. I am on HSPL 1.56olinex but you can try my suggestion cause I think it's the only one you can choose now. I never ever use USPL. I think you can do it step by step and carefully.

I can get into download mode, recovery mode etc. but since froyo update and one click root/sideloader - no computer recognizes the phone...
no beep - on the pc, no trying to install drivers... it's like its not there, but captivate beeps and knows usb cord is in...
What up? I want to go back to 2.1
Is there another way - like copying the 2.1 files to a micro sd and moving to the root and doing a restore or something?
Help - got to take phone back!

Read the OP in its entirety. You may be able to get by just loading the drivers, but if that fails, you can flash back to stock 2.1 with Odin using the instructions he's listed.
Odin requires connectivity. Drivers installed and worked when I flashed 2.2 - but now its like the phone is not there at all.

Just to cover the bases... are you using the usb cord that came with the phone? I've found that my Captivate won't be recognized if I connect with my wife's HTC cord.
Do you have the SDK tools? If so run and ADB devices command from a command line and let us know if the device shows up.
Reboot the phone and pc before doing this. Make sure the phone is in USB debugging mode also.
isn't there a way to just get the .pkg or update.zip or something that you can put on the micro sd card?
can you flash roms from the card? internal or external?

my samsung cord stopped working 2 weeks after i got the phone, i use my nexus one cord, and while im here at my moms ive been using her bb torch cord, both work perfect.
also a quick note....make sure you don't have any other usb storage devices plugged into your computer....i noticed i would occasionally have this issue if another usb external was plugged in....try another computer also to see if it reads
i have tried on numerous machines
have you ever flashed a rom from the SD card

If i am not mistaken there is not a way to return to stock without being connected to a pc. It is odd that no pc will see the phone. Really sounds like a driver issue. Could also be the cord as it has been seen in a few cases that nothing short of the stock cable works, have not had that issue myself but have had no pc see the phone and it turned out to be that I didnt have debugging mode checked and had to reinstall the drivers but then had no issuses.
I ran into this moving from one rom to another. What made it finally work was after selecting your usb mode after the cable is plugged in, I dragged down the notifications and one was click here to mount phone. After I did that it connected up just fine. I was starting to panic as at that point I was on stock eclair, z4root was not findable in the market and it wouldn't let me sideload it from my external sd card. Actually I still had to copy the root.zip from one click root onto my internal and rename it update.zip (essentially what one click root does) and boot into recovery and apply it. Once it was rooted, I was out of the forest, but got nervous.
My phone was working perfectly until a few days ago when I noticed that USB connection to PC stopped working. I was running imilkas CM9 v2. USB used to work perfectly and then randomly, it just stopped working, I don't have a clue what caused it because I did not flash anything on the phone.
When I connect my Phone to the Computer via USB cable, my phone start charging and nothing else happens. My computer does not even show that I connected a USB device.
I've tried 3 other computers with the drivers and the same issue (1 comp with xp and the others with win 7). Also, not to mention, I've tried multiple USB cables, including the original. I've tried USB Debugging on and off, doesn't make a difference.
I've tried ADB and it does not recognize the device either.
In CWM when I mount USB storage, it does not work.
In download mode, when I plug in the cable, nothing happens, odin does not detect any connection.
USB connection to the computer is Dead and it does nothing but charge my phone.
Here is a list of things I've already tried to fix the issue:
1. Factory Reset.
2. Used Mobile Odin, reverted to my Phone's Stock GB ROM (KK2). On stock GB, I tried Kies Air and that worked fine, but USB connection had the same issue
3. Formatted the Internal Storage
4. Removed the SIM Card and Micro SD card, still no luck.
5. re-installed CWM (without pc)
6. Installed Paranoid Android 0.2
7. Called Samsung... They said they wont service my phone because I'm located in Canada and I have the International Note. They told me I'd have to take it to the country I bought it from.
If anyone can offer any help that would be great.
Thanks in advance.

Could be factory defect. flash original rom and take it to service center.

Phone used to work perfectly fine before. Already flashed original rom, it did nothing. And I've already talked to Samsung. They won't help me.
I've already mentioned that in my op! I would be nice to hear suggestions/solutions other than the ones I've mentioned.
Can anyone please help me out with this? I even tried cleaning the usb port a bit more, but no avail. I am guessing the file that recognizes a PC connection got corrupted some how. Anyone know how to update or replace that?

Make sure the cable is properly connected. Check for dust that might prevent it going in properly. Try a different cable. What OS are you using? I found where bootloader is dmg or incomplete Windows fails to detect it. Linux on the other hand detects it. Can't use it but you can detect it.
Can you connect to SW Update Mode? Battery out and plug into PC while holding vol up button.
If nothing works try taking it into the shop.

You can root your phone from there. If you have SW Update. I recommend taking it into the shop if you are still under warranty, If you don't have warranty then you can go ahead and root. Just install a patched bin and fls with Smart Flash Tool. It's one of the stickies (How to unbrick, I think)
hi
new to Android nation
I have the same issue when connecting to USB...
And I managed to flash with custom firmware (latest ZEUS version) and I rooted but the issue with USB connection is still there...
Anyway, I wiil try connecting it to Linux to check if that would work with USB connecting
UPDATE:
OK after some digging, I managed to (at least temporally) solve the issue... After fresh installing official 2.3.4 firmware I booted to recovery and from there formatted the system folder and then installed Zeus v7 firmware... anyway, USB connection and charging indicator work fine at first booting to system... As soon as I reboot the OS USB connection (and charging) get unstable, and after third reboot it completely goes away and the device does not recognize anything: if I connect USB cable it does not show any sing (charging indicator does not show battery charging, nor the device offers me to connect in mass storage, windows recognizes only modem but not the USB storage) and when I connect charger, battery indicator does not flash as charging... Battery monitor tool shows that "battery is discharging" even though the battery capacity seems to increase (according to growing percentage of battery capacity)... Is there a some kind of USB server... I am a total noob to Androiid OS (used to be Symibian from its beggining )so I hope you won`t mind if I used wrong terms in my explanation/comment...
I hope my explanation is not confusing
Cheers
UPDATE 2:
After installing Zeus v7.01 update, battery charging recognition got fixed using both USB cable and wall charger...
Anyway, USB recognition by PC problem still exists... But when in recovery mode I can successfully mount SD card to PC in Mass storage mode...
Will keep you updated... :victory:
