[Q] i9000 USB connection not working at all

I have an annoying problem, when I connect i9000 to PC using USB cable, only phone charging happens, other that that, nothing happens, the i9000 is not aware of USB connection and so the PC.
I've tried this on 3 PC, 2 with windows 7 64-bit, and the other with XP SP3.
I tried installing kies, samsung usb drivers, even somene in another forum gave me an update file to apply it through the recovery mode but, with no sccess.
Also tried what others said about unmounting SD card,.....connecting in debug mode,.........
All no sccess

Is the cable ok? (even if it charge), or maybe a pin damaged on your phone?

Yes I used another cable, but no success

Do you have a custom launcher installed on your i9000? I have found (experience) that KIES will not fire if you are not using the stock launcher (TWLAUNCHER). Once I switch from LauncherEX to TWLauncher, KIES will fire and I can use it, the USB Mass Storage, etc....

Thanks for your answer.
I tried this also, but didn't work for me.
BUT the issue was solved. Don't know the exact mechanism, but here's what I did.
As android is a little brother of linux, I told myself why don't you give Ubuntu a trial. So, I downloaded and installed it, then after booting in Ubuntu, I connected the phone, 1st no success but then enabled debug mode and the phone & computer identified each other
Excellent, but no ODIN or KIES for Ubuntu , little depressed, booted into Windows 7 and BINGO, the issue resolved completely.
Maybe the big brother Ubuntu, gave his little bra a push

Try cleaning port on phone
Hi, I went through similar - only ubuntu didn't work either.... I eventually read in a linux forum though about cleaning the usb port on the phone with alcohol. As was at home then and tried on windows again and BOOM! drivers like crazy...
Might try that too. My phone was only 3 months old and never really abused but it worked so what do I know.

Ubuntu or alcohol, I'm happy now that my issue was solved

You don't have to know much about ubuntu, just download it, then install it as any windows program, boot into ubuntu.
After that connect your phone to the computer, and make sure to activate debuging mode on i9000. You may need to disconnect and reconnect the cable before it works.

I also find that my PC will only recognize my phone if I reboot the i9000 right before connecting it.
Quirky, but livable.

Actually this issue is strange, and when I emailed Samsung about this problem, they asked me to install KIES

Yes My phone to only charging when connect cable nothing else happen please any help

i have the same problem and found out that my phone has to be on idle mode... how do i put my phone in idle mode? it says to close all applications and i did but still nothing... and none of the above solutions worked for me.
my phone info is this:
Firmware version: 2.1-update1
Baseband version: I9000TUBJH1
Kernel version: 2.6.29 / [email protected] #2
Build number: ECLAIR.UBJI1
And to top it all my phone will not boot into download mode.

Guys,
I am having the same issue. This started when I upgraded my P from Win XP to Win 7. I tried the alcohol thing. I tried Ubuntu which could not recognize the phone, whatever mode (USB debug or not, media, kies or mass storage). Of course, I had tried before that to install the lastest USB drivers. I also tried Kies.
Nothing worked. Any further help ?
THanks

Help! Odin not seeing phone!?

Ive got my phone into a boot loop state because I messed up when trying to restore a previous backup of CM7 that I had.
Okay I thought, this is not a problem I will just do a clean flash of something via odin with my phone in download mode. This is where the problem lays. Odin can not see my phone when its in download mode and plugged in via USB! I have flash roms via Odin before so know what I'm doing.
I've tried it on 2 windows 7 64bit laptops and different USB ports but both are the same! could this be a driver issue? I have Kies installed on both and have manually tried installing the driver too.
Other things to note is that I can't get into recovery mode but no problem getting into download. Also when I plug the phone into charge it doesnt come up with the battery symbol but only the circle of rectangles like it is loading the battery symbol which never appears.
Anyone know what is going on?

Sorry for bad english.
I had problem like yours - pc don't recognized my phone (odin too) and shows only battery charge. i tried on 3 different pc's, installed kies, pc studio, drv, tried 2 differnt cables.
And the problem was... Cables

If you are CM7, you may need Nexus S Drivers.
See this link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1061946&page=879
Download and extract to folder.
When phone connected, locate it in your computers devive manager and update driver and point to your folder where you extracted for installation.

Thanks spaikas!
I guess I will have to go out and buy a new cable to try that. One thing though is that even when I plug it into the mains power adaptor I still get the circle of rectangles as well as when its plugged into my PC (with the supposedly defective cable). So does this suggest that the circle of rectangles is not caused by a bad cable? but still my cable being bad could be a culprit for odin not seeing it.

Thanks. I have downloaded and extracted the driver. But I can't find my phone in device manager. Does the phone have to be in download mode for windows to be able to see it. Do you know roughly what it would be called?

No, actually enable USB debugging and go into CWM recovery and connect, mine was showing as Samsung Galalxy S or Android phone. Check in USB devices as well.

I can't get into CWM! Is there no way to install the Nexus S driver without having the phone plugged in because otherwise I have no idea what I'm going to do....

It was my cable! Sorry for wasting your time guys but it was just a very unlucky coincidence that my cable must of broke at the same time that I messed up my phone and needed to do a odin flash! Anyway managed to get my hands on another cable and now odin can see my phone!

) congratulations!
i was so happy too, when i pluged 3rd cable, and found it good

Bricked even with download mode ?

Hi All,
here is the story, I was on MilkyS GB rom, made a ndriod backup, then flashed dark knight 2.1 then wiped , flashed DK3 w/ Semaphone. Today, I was going to flash stock JVU via Odin but while I was charging up the phone I already noticed Windows was showing error saying something like ' USB device is malfunction cannot install' , so I thought that must be a DK3 bug for not able to access to the SD card, so I did not care.
Went ahead and tried to flash Odin, sure enough Odin did not detect my phone, so did Google and found 'Gnex USB drivers' which by the way took forever to install, while waiting , I thought I might as well just go back to MilkyS GB by using the backup I have done before, so I went in recovery tried to restore, but not successful, so I went ahead and choose reboot....now I am stuck at the boot screen, pull battery, I can go into download mode , however, Odin cannot detect the phone so I still can NOT flash anything.... (just now tried all kinds of drivers I can find, CM7 USB driver, Google usb_driver_r04-windows, even installed the drivers within Andriod SDK, still can't detect the phone..)
Any suggestions ? am I out of luck ? by the way, tried installing drivers in 3 x different laptops and with different USB port on them...

Have you tried a different USB cable? Also ensure KIES is not running & that there are no KIES processes running in the background. Make sure no other usb devices connected to the pc. I've also heard Windows 7 64bit can be the issue sometime but not sure so maybe try a windows xp pc.
Also try disabling any antivirus/firewall on the pc. I had this is issue but for me restarting pc and using a different USB port did the trick.
Should you figure out the USB issue you can't actually restore a Gingerbread backup from ICS.
You will need to get a stock rom (darky resurection should also work) and flash with ODIN. You will need a 3 file stock rom (pda,phone,csc) & 512 pit file.
From here you will need to select all files into relevant places, check repartion and run ODIN. Sometimes I've also needed to flash a second time with just the 3 files and repartition unchecked.

thanks scubadude for your reply. Yes, tried 2 x cables, 3 x laptops and all the USB ports on the laptops, now trying on a clean XP , AV disabled PC still no go.
I know the Odin 3 file process and so on and I kind of know that I can't flash GB on top of ICS that is why I attempt to flash stock in Odin but I guess I was just impatient to wait for the stupid Samsung driver to be installed and made a stupid mistake...

I guess you have tried going back in recovery mode using the 3-button combo but that is also not working?
Odin isn't recognizing your phone but does windows recognize it? If you uninstall all samsung drivers and then try to connect your phone to PC does it ask for installation of drivers? .. if it doesn't that means your phone's usb could have become faulty.. (just speculating)
Or you can try to use Heimdall instead of Odin.. maybe that'll work for you..

Try using Heimdall for mac or linux. It does the same as Odin with no drivers.
Also try cleaning the contacts in usb port on the phone with a small brush(this worked for me when I had similar problems).

Try using Heimdall for linux. The windows version depends on drivers while the linux does not need drivers.
Also try turning USB-debugging on. Some people report that this is needed for download mode, though I don't see how this can make a difference as the OS is not loaded when using download mode.
If this doesn't work I think you have a hardware problem.
EDIT: Don't use WM-ware etc for the above. I think an Ubuntu live CD will be fine.

[Q] [q] USB BRICK - Devs PLZ HELP!!!

I have a USB BRICK and wishing that someone could help me fix it
[STORY]
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. I've searched this issue and I believe its called a USB BRICK
[THINGS I'VE TRIED THAT DID NOT 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. Also tried Stock ICS via Mobile Odin
3. Formatted the Internal Storage
4. Removed the SIM Card and Micro SD card, still no luck.
5. re-installed CWM manually (without pc)
6. Tried various different roms in the development section
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.
8. Replaced the micro USB hardware component inside the phone (bought it from ebay)
9. Tried a Jig to see if it recognizes that and it booted me into download mode but doesn't recognize the USB connection to PC.
I've been struggling with this issue for the past 2 months and have gotten sick of this issue.:crying: I've tried all that was possible based on my knowledge and now I need some serious help. I've posted this issue in the Q&A before and about 3 people responded with suggestions that I had already mentioned in thread. I believe this issue might be caused by a file that has gotten corrupted on the phone because i've even replaced the hardware (usb port) and it didn't change anything. If anyone can offer any help/suggestions that would be great. Sorry for making this such a long post but I really need some help and wanted to give as much info as possible.
Thanks in advance.

I had that same problem before, it's really frustrating having tried so many stuff before finally I gave up and went to service center to replace the usb hardware module, which solves the problem. When I asked them why it happened and how to prevent that same thing to happen again, they didn't answer.

I am well versed in replacing hardware components myself. The usb module I bought from ebay does exactly the same thing as the original one. It too charges but does not recognize PC connectivity which means it wasnt the usb module which was defective, its something else!
I would love to send it in for repair, but Samsung WON'T service my phone because I live in Canada and they do not sell the international Note here. When I called them they told me to take it to where I bought it from (which was in UAE). Since I am not going there and have no plans to go there, I am stuck with a phone that can't be warrantied!
Any one know how to fix this issue?

1. download latest version of kies for PC
2. uninstall previous kies (if any) and install new one.
3. On the cell phone, dial the following number: *#7284#
Once the last # is hit, the PhoneUtil application is launched. Choose USB -> Modem and then USB -> PDA mode. (Even if the mode is PDA, switch to Modem and then back to PDA.)
4. Plug the USB cable.

I faced a similar problem a few days ago. Here's what I did :
Try cleaning micro usb port by rubbing alcohol using paper strips. They should be thin enough so that you can clean both top and bottom part of the port.Then let it dry under the sun or by itself.Make sure that you don't blow any air into the port else condensation may occur.
By the way, is it monsoon season there in Canada ?

Almost same situation here from the highlighted above. when I plug my charger in the usb it just charge the phone and PC cannot detect it. Also, it only charge the phone when i reboot it. If I unplug the charger while the phone is on, and plug the charger back, it will not charge. However, when I insert the usb cable in my phone, there is a notification in my phone which says "usb connector connected" but the PC cannot detect my phone for mass storage, as well as for Kies and Odin.
My usb port was already replaced by Samsung but same problem still occurs. It could be a software/configuration related issue. Or could it be a usb brick? Pls help.

have you tried to put the phone in download mode and checked if odin is able to detect the phone.. what rom are you on.. have you tried to flash a stock rom ?

[Q] USB Device Not Recognized

As the Title says I'm consistently getting a "USB Device not Recognized" error when I plug My SGA GT-S5830D in while in Download mode only. I've tried removing drivers and reinstalling every USB driver for my phone I could find with Windows 8 and no luck. I need download mode as i'm going to upgrade my phone and need to get it back to stock to trade it in. Any ideas? is there a way to reflash a stock rom and recovery with out ODIN? ARGGGGG!!!!

Did you try in different USB port?¿
Have you got USB debug option enable?¿ (settings >>> aplications >>> development >>> USB debug mode)
Did you try in another PC?¿

Ya I've tried four different usb ports, unfortunately a different cable and pc aren't really options atm. Is there a way to flash official roms without odin/download mode?

well, you can try Mobile Odin modded for GalaxyAce, some time ago it was posted in Android Development, but I have never tried it :s I don't know if It's working properly or It might brick your phone so be careful mate

Yes, there is a tutorial to unbrick your phone, but I don't know if it would work if you brick it using Odin Mobile

Great! I'm glad you've solved your problem

USB device not recognised error appears everytime, with every usb cable on every port. Phone is 100% working, comp 100% working, Windows 10. Am I have older version of Windows? What's the problem, it's so annoying I want to flash stock firmware and cannot do it due to this stupid bug.
