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

Windows 7 recognizes EXT4 so that's not the issue, otherwise everyone who flashes roms and plays with their phone would have the same issue.
Try the cord, apart from that if you can't get any PC to recognize it in download mode it may be hardware related.
Not yet

I'm having trouble understanding your posts. From what I can gather we have eliminated a driver, PC or cord issue. Why do you think it is CWM issue when the phone is not even recognized in download mode?

I have tried using another PC and nothing!
The 3 Buttons options still working even for CWM (then I can`t do anything cause the unknow mount/ storage problem)....and in Download Mode the WIn7 Doesn`t Recognize it.
I hope you understand me...sorry about my English!
CWM Unable to Delete files
I continue in trouble...my SGS isn`t working, the CWM mode can`t wipe, delete or install anything...always the "E: unknow mount"
The Download Mode still not working!
What were you doing when this issue started?
I was restoring
I was trying to restore the update.zip file...I was using the MyICS and later the ICS RC4.2 ...but I`ve decided to return to the stock, wipe data/ factory reset and then: no more boot (only i9000 appears and stay)
HI, I`m using a program USBDeview and it can "see" my device although it doesn`t recognize as a SGS or i9000 or anything related.
I`ve been reading something related to ADB and PDAnet, but everytime that someone says to put my device in Debugging mode ON and continue the steps, I have to stop cause I can`t turn ON my SGS...I suppose that before the last time I used it I let the debugging MODE OFF...so my PC and any other PC will recognize it.
Any other idea/ solution?
Thanks a lot...but I still don`t have a phone,
I`ve been trying to solve my problem but no succes until now!

What happens when you open Odin and then plug it in in download mode?
Have you tried to mount or unmount storage in CWM?
If you can't wipe anything through CWM and can't get any PC to recognize it in download mode unfortunately it sounds like you have either bricked your phone or you have hardware issues.
You've probably tried it, but, pull your battery out for a minute and then try everything again, apart from that there's nothing else I can help you with. Maybe start searching for tricks on how to unbrick an sgs.
Good luck mate and keep me posted on your progress, I'll help where I can.

Please can someone help me, I have an LG P970 but the USB port seems to be bricked. The phone charges when connected to the computer but nothing else. When connecting the phone to the computer, the computer does not see the phone and the phone does not come up with any usb connection mode.
For this reason I rooted my phone and updated it to the latest version of Zeus rom, but this didn't fix the problem. The phone still just charges on the computer but that's all it does.
I think the phone USB drivers are faulty or need resetting. Is there any software APK I can download to fix my phone.
Thanks for any help.

The problem is that when I go into '>> mounts and storage' the only option available to me is - unmount. There is no 'mount usb option'
By default I select unmount - to which as you say nothing happens.

Hi thanks for this. However, the link to the usb drivers is broken. I have installed the usb drivers from the lg website and I know they work fine because I have now tried connect a friend's LG optimus black to my computer and the computer and phone both recognise each other. So I know it's not the usb cable or usb drivers on the PC. I have also installed the LG usb drivers on my laptop and spare computer, however again I have the same problem - phone only charges.
When this problem initially occured about a year ago I sent the phone back to LG and they did some sort of software refresh, which solved the connection problem for a few months, but then things went back to the way they were. I then thought it may be a PC issue so I downloaded drivers and connected my phone to the laptop and everything worked well. However, again, a few weeks later, things reverted back to the same problem. The phone only charges on both PC and laptop now.
Hope you can understand my frustration.
Someone must know something out there? How do I fix this stupid USB problem?

LG service center? you've pretty much tried all I would've
Last time I took the phone there, I was told it might have been the phone port software corrupted. Whatever that mean. If I can't find a fix to this I will need to somehow unroot the phone and try to get it back in its unrooted state to LG (not sure if that is possible) else they probably won't fix it.
I'll keep looking,
thanks for your help.
You are using the the proper usb cord. I know I have a couple. The one will charge only.
Yes I am using original cables, I have three of them. They all work on my Friend's OB but not on mine. I am convinced it's a phone software issue. This has happened with three different computers - when you first install LG software on the computer, the phone connects okay for a few weeks and then loses connection, and I can never get it connected again.
When LG refreshed the phone software for me the phone worked properly for a little while and then reverted back to charging mode only.
I need a way of reinstalling the USB software or port software onto the phone itself via some type of APK if such a thing exists.
Maybe a developer here can develop one???
hey man
if you have disabled the "android platform usb modem" in peripherals manager, enable it first (phone must be plugged)

this means it must be the result of an intervention by a third party thing, by yourself, or another program. If you have a kind of a software which manages ports or consumption (on phone as well as on Win), uninstall them, then uninstall all LG drivers, reboot, then reinstall them. if that doesn't solve your issue, you may have to reinstall windows. that's radical, but it should do it
Try connecting the usb while doing pressure between the LG logo on screen and the back of the phone, like squeezing something . I had this issue and it was an internal connector issue....
Check if you hear the "tada" sound in windows or any message about a new device.

Hi, thanks for this, I'm not sure what you mean by "disabled the "android platform usb modem" in peripherals manager". I am using XP. I have had a look to see if there is any software remotely associated with port consumption etc and have uninstalled these and also reinstalled LG drivers. But situation is still the same.
Please note: I have an LG GT540 and this connects fine to the computer. I have also connected another LG optimus black and this also connects fine to the computer. On the basis of deduction, it must be a phone issue, somehow interacts with the computer fine and then fails after a little while. Also I haven't installed anything on the phone itself which might manage consumption or port. The computer has a usb host controller but not sure that means anything useful.
I do agree and have feeling that if I reinstall windows I bet the phone would start working again, possibly again for a few months. This means I reinstall windows on my pc and laptop and hope it all resolves without actually getting to the bottom of the problem.
What I need is another laptop to try this on. If I try another computer or laptop and it recognises the phone. What do I make of everything??? Any ideas.
ps also tried holding pinching usb lg cable as suggested but nothing different.
Thanks for all your efforts.
Further update to this, I installed LG drivers on a fresh dell laptop. Again nothing happened, the phone only charges. I am even more convinced that phone software is corrupt. How do I reinitialise phone USB software?? If there is such a thing.

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.
Use another computer
Hello,
Need to upgrade an old tablet to whatever newer version I can. Currently it has:
Model: GT-P1000L
Android version: 2.2
Kernel: 2.6.32.9 [email protected] #1
I found a few links to do the ROM to Lollipop and/or KitKat, however, I am having issues with the tablet being recognize by Windows 8.1.
Drivers are not working, but even when I plug it in, I never even get an "unknown device" in device manager. Odin will not see it as well when in download mode and I have the original USB cable.
Added: I just tried a Win7 VM and no luck as well. Tablet not recognize at all, it does not show in "device manager" with or without drivers.
Any ideas anyone?
bump
Try uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers or else install samsung keys....or try another cable.
You also have to be in the download mode(volume down+power key) to use odin.
If all this does not work then try on some other system
Thanks! I tried uninstalling/reinstalling drivers multiple times, different versions, etc. Tried a Win7 VM on a MAC + machines with Win 8.1 and 10. None worked. Also tried different Odin versions, same result. And yes, all in download mode.
Yesterday after some research, I am leaning towards a bad cable. It seems some cables are good for charging (in this case it will charge) but not for data transfer.
Will keep you posted.
After dealing with a bad cable, I was finally able to install CWM as in this guide. However, as soon as I installed OMNI 4.4.4., it booted on TWRP 2.8.1. The touch is not working on screen nor the buttons while on TWRP. Cannot do anything.
- ADB shows the device in recovery
Can something be done? I was following this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab/general/how-to-install-android-cm12-lollipop-5-t3018841
SOLUTION:
This sure was a learning lesson. For some reason, anytime I flashed "CF-Root-TAB7_XX_OXA_JQ1-v3.3-CWM3RFS.tar" I lost the touch screen in Android and in CWM. So when flashing Omni 4.4.4, could not do anything in TWRP. After lots of reading and some trial/errors, this worked...
- Re-stock using firmware from http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/
- From stock 2.3.6, I flashed CF-Root-TAB7_XX_OXA_JQ1-v3.3-CWM3RFS.tar with Odin
- Lost touch in screen
- Boot to recovery and in CWM, using volume and power buttons, I installed zip ROM called "HumberOS-v2.1"
- Boot to recovery, Got TOUCH back! Do all wipes.
- From CWM, installed Omni 4.4.4, which gave me TWRP (with touch screen working!) and the ability to install any 5.x or 6.x ROMs as specified here http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab/general/how-to-install-android-cm12-lollipop-5-t3018841.

HI, I had the same issue. maybe should try first to make sure you have the right drivers. look for samsung driver for mobile devices and try on different usb ports. I have 3.0 usb and 2.0 usb on my laptop and when I connect my tablet to the 3.0 ones it doent work! so I started using the 2.0 and went smooth
Yes, make sure the correct drivers are there and also try different ports and different PCs if you can. Your issue is a bit different to mine, as it was never shown as "unknown device" for me.
Just FYI... It took me a couple of days to finally research and find out there are different cables, some for charging only and some for charging and data transfer. In my case since I had the charge only cable, PCs never detected the tablet. New cable first try it was detected by Odin.
So, when you say your tablet has new life, how good are we talking? I flashed mine with Cyanogenmod 9.something a while back, and it's near to unusable. Would like to bring it back to life...
we all have different meaning for unusable. For me, the fact that it can have code 5.x or newer is a life saver.
