1. What firmare or ROM, you use? cause 3.2 rom i dont understand.
2. If you have CWM, go to recovery and delete partition cache and dalvik cache and reboot system.
3.If you have no CWM, go to download and flash other ROM or stock ROM
4.If your phone cannot go into recovery or download, remove tha baterry for 10 or more minutes and then try phone to switch on.

are you asking why the device is not recognized on your PC?
enable USB debugging mode in the settings page. also try to reinstall the phone drivers. uninstall and reinstall samsung kies. maybe this could help.

Like desewer said + make sure u are on mass storage
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App

Yes sometimes many of us forget to be on mass storage and keep wondering that why isn't this device getting detected. Unplug the usb switch to mass storage and then connect usb.

diffente usb port won't work

is thier nobody how can't help me?

well happened to me and i used another pc....
use a card reader for data transfer...
else try reinstalling usb driver....or a factory reset to phone(backup ur data by titanium pro

CWM -> Mounts -> Mount SD Card
if that doesn't work then reinstall your drivers, try installing Kies, it has every driver that is needed.

i agree with others it my be drivers!
Re-install drivers (re-install kies)
Try again
Try other computer same happened to me!
in my gf laptop my ace is not recognized or is but only sometimes, and in mine is always!
Try also different cable!
Good Luck

try to type in dialer *#1234#
you must have 3 lines
pda, phone and csc if csc is missing so kies wont recognize your phone and you have to put any csc files from any rom to your system folder and it will work =)

maybe there is a problem with ur ace hardware or pc drivers because i was like that too,but i use a little tilt and now it works for me

strange.....when i install the rom, my phone doesn't load....just the screen android comes up and stays that way. i waited ten minutes and nothing happend.so i installed back a newer clockworksmod, wipe cach ect........ and put back cm9_galaxyics-ace-beta3 on.
there someting very wrong with my phone i think. by the way my phone is still in root mode, must i unrooted?

I just wanna share my experience. Once i had this type of problem but when i removed my external hard disk it worked again. If u have connected any this type hardware like printer or something disconnect that.

Yeah I had the same prob once, all the juice was going to other devices and wasn't letting the phone be detected, so +1 for that idea.

thats the problem..when i plug my phone in usb nothing happend but charging. even ubs tethering can i not select on the phone and when i put the phone in download mod he doen't react.

have you tried to fiddle with the USB debugging? I had a similar problem once. I kept on plugging it in and changing the USB debugging in the settings until it worked. Annoying but helped.

[Q] USB Debugging CM10 and V30I

Hey guys, since i flashed CM10 and/or V30I KU5900 i have some problems with USB Debugging, i cannot use QtADB, or flash the CWM for example .
All drivers are installed but it just doesn't show up D:
Any suggestions?
Thanks for your Help .

In cm10 change your mode from MTP to camera. So just pull down the topbar, find the USB option there, while plugged to USB, open it, change it to Camera, unplug USB, plug in again and that's it.
For KU5900 repack, I cant tell you, but it should work similar. Dont forget to enable usb debugging in settings

Well, it looks like it's working as USB Transfer on CM10 with CWM Flash but QtADB doesn't seen to work
I can't download the newest version of QtADB, i don't know why, it just doesn't connect, so i'm using the 0.7.3 version .
If you can mirror it i'd be glad

first of all, try rebooting into recovery(cwm)
if you can't, download an app called quickboot or titanium backup
from your pc, download the sd card fix from the thread
with that, reboot into recovery
wipe data, cache, dalvik
then re-install the rom
afterwards install the sdcard fix

Galaxy note won't update, and now won't even start. Help please!

Galaxy note what an update, and now won't even start. Help please!
My Samsung note was updated from gingerbread to ice cream sandwich using Samsung Kies. Then rooted and put on the Franco kernel. That's when the problems started: lag city! It couldn't even play fruit ninja or noogra nuts. Everything was slow. subsequent updates wouldn't work. Every few hours it would remind me, and I would click dismiss.
I've also been using an aftermarket battery. When the battery would get low, screen would activate all pixels and go very bright. At this point I would have to hold down the power button. Anyway, the last time I did this was the last time the phone was on. When I try to start the phone it gets to the Samsung bit after the opening flash intro, and the Samsung just glows and blinks. I've tried many times but it doesn't work. If left in the state, it gets very hot and will Drain the battery very quickly.
I am able to get to the clockwork mod recovery. What shall I do from here? I see there's an option to backup, but how would I restore from and what all my data be there? I have some really important data on the phone that I'm hoping to recover. In fact some of that data is worth several hundred dollars, because it's my proof for my friend who was defrauded by a ticketing agent.
Your help would be really appreciated everyone!

From what I can tell, you haven't wiped so it shouldn't be a emmc brick.
You said you could get to CWM recovery so from there you should first mount your phone to your pc and back up anything important like that "several hundred dollar" info.
Y'know. Just to be safe.
Then download a safe kernel such as Hydracore or Philz and put it on your phone.
Flash it, reboot recovery, then do all 3 wipes and see if that solves your problem.

Thanks again for the reply. When I do that and plug it in, the computer installs the device driver software correctly. However, I can't find the device either in "my computer" or in the device management/hard disk management console. I've tried this on two computers with the same result. The option to eject is in the tray icon (similar to other removable storage), but that's the only place it seems to be visible.

Flash a Philz kernel from franco recovery. Reboob recovery to get into Philz. Then mounts and storage /mount USB. PC will pick up both int & ext sd cards:thumbup:

i guess u dont have access to internal storage.. if u have a SD card .. put the kernel in it and then flash using cwm > install zip from SD
if no sd then put the phone in download mode and install using PC odin using PDA tab

Try hydracore 5.4 then. http://hecubus.com/xda/kernel/HydraCore/GL_HYDRACORE_v5-4_STD.zip
If you are unable to connect your phone to PC,
remove your sd card,
put it in a card reader or another phone that is alive
put the above downloaded kernel.zip on the sd card.
Now reinsert the sd card in your dead phone and
flash the kernel from the recovery.
in advanced menu, reboot recovery
Now wipe /data and reboot, you should be good to go.

So this will allow me to boot the phone without wiping the data?

Sounds like you've got corrupted rw permissions on internal storage. It's quite common, but the only way I know how to recover is a reflash with correct wipes.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium

Well I finally got it repaired. Expanded said it would take two months after I mailed it back to the UK. Got it done locally egger where two places said it was the power chip. The good news is the pics are there there, but the data is gone. Do you all recon there is someway else to get the data. If the pics are there maybe the data still can be recovered?
Also, do you think it is dangerous to use whatever the local place flashed on to it? There are a few Chinese apps on it. System says it Systemis hardcore 5 and android 4.0.3
Thank you guys.

[Q] Need to backup files from i9000 with no display`

Hi all, I have an i9000 with a broken screen and digitiser. I need to recover the data from it (pictures mainly). There is no display at all but the phone is working otherwise - I can hear it booting up and I can put it into Download and Recovery modes.
Unfortunately it's running the stock firmware so I can't use Recovery Mode to mount USB storage. When turned on normally, it will connect to my PC but obviously I can't press the button to mount storage (why doesn't it mount automatically???).
Does anyone have any ideas? I am considering flashing a new kernel to get CWM Recovery and possibly blindly mount USB storage. But I don't know the current stock firmware so I'm unsure which version of Semaphore/CF-root to flash...
Is there any other way? Other than buying another i9000 with a working LCD/digitiser which would be too expensive.

Okay! After flashing the kernel I asked you to and getting into recovery mode, click the volume down button 5 times and then, enter it and click again.
NOTE: The Backup will take at max half an hour. So, I suggest you leave it on charging whilst it backs up and take a look at it after 1 hour

Thanks so much! Just to clarify - scrolling down 5 times and pressing enter twice mounts the USB storage? Then I can access the internal SD card and back up the contents using my PC?
Also for the flashing process - I put the phone in Download mode, connect it to PC and flash using Odin, selecting the 2.7.4 tar as PDA? Then disconnect phone and remove battery, then boot into CWM?

Also another issue I'm worried about is the current firmware on the phone, because apparently Semaphore 2.7.4 won't work on pre-JW4 firmwares. Is there any way to check the current firmware using Odin or something?

Scrolling down 5 times and clicking twice runs the backup. You don't need to mount USB Storage! As for the flashing process you're right and it will work as long as you have the USB Drivers installed!
And yeah, the thanks button is right there (where ever it is).

Oh OK, where does the backup go? I'm not using a MicroSD at the moment. I think it would be best for me just to mount the USB storage so I can retrieve the photos etc to my PC. I don't need a full backup, I just need to transfer the important files to my PC.
Also you may have missed my previous comment, I'll paste it here:
Also another issue I'm worried about is the current firmware on the phone, because apparently Semaphore 2.7.4 won't work on pre-JW4 firmwares. Is there any way to check the current firmware using Odin or something?

The Backup is mostly stored in the Internal SD Card. Regarding the flashing thing, Even if you flash a KK Kernel, it would boot to Recovery, but not to system.
