SGS I9000 Issue: No detection

Hey all,
facing a weird issue with SGS lately after ROM ing it with Darky's ROM 10.2 EE, my phone doesnt get detected by kies and also as a usb device
to resolve the USB issue i downloaded the USB drivers and reinstalled still it gets recognised as a usb device and i cant access it see screenie below
now this is a little pain as the stupid kies makes a single backup file of the entire thing and i cant import my contacts
Thanks
Kamikaze

I believe you have to be on a Samsung ROM for KIES to recognize the phone.

True hence need solutions as to how can I get back my data which was backed up by kies

(head in hands).......why didnt you just google all your contacts in first place, then you will never ever have this problem! kies wont recognise your phone with a custom rom on it! in future think before you flash

Sad... so any solutions?

there is a way of getting your contacts back on phone but i have no idea what it is, but it involves converting the file format and pushing them back with adb, sorry i cant help you

Sure: Reflash a stock rom, restore contacts from kies, back them up using something else (port to google or use another wifi backup system on the computer). Then redo your custom flashing.
The details I don't know but that is the path....

Thx for the advice gfacer : D also how to get my sgs detected ?

It should be detected with proper drivers and a stock rom in kies. But better yet don't use kies its horrible.

You can download the USB drivers separately, install and try out different USB connectors. Maybe some old are bound to the odd drivers

Pc Doesn't recognizes my phone's SD or Internal mem

I had my PC gone for some serious repairs and was using my Dad's lappy for i think last 2 months...
When i had LG Rom, i used to have that mount SD card option and it worked well, but as i went on to CM7(temasek), i never got to test it...
4 days back my daddy's lappy failed to mount the SD and int. Mem...i thought it to be driver issue with lappy and used my card reader..
Today while using my own new PC, i saw that problem is with optimus and not in computers,
TETHERING WORKS PERFECTLY BUT MOUNTING DOESNT
Please help someone...
In phone, SD appears to be mounted on PC, but actually it doesn't shows up...

Can't see any such option bro...I'm on Cyanogenmod

You made.my day bro....Now PC is reading and mounting both mem'z but copy speed is only 256-512 Kbps :-??

Try disabling usb debugging mode in developers options!

Yup, cyanogenmod and usb storage don't get along very well. I had trouble with this since the days of my good old LG GT540 (Swift). My answer was the same as yours... a card reader. It's not very nice but then again I don't need to plug my phone into my PC very often.
Maybe this will be fixed in ICS?

By the way, i thought that USB storage mode is universal ??
So why do we need to install drivers..??

I think with stock you don't need drivers Like I said previously, that's the only "downfall" for custom ROM's in my opinion... that storage option is completely broken.

USB OTG support for HTC salsa
Hi ,
My device is HTC salsa (rooted), running by stock rom(Android version 2.3.3, kernel version 2.6.35.10), will my device support USB OTG ?, so that i can connect Flash drives(Pen drive/hard disk/mouse/keyboard) to my device, if not , is there any way to make my device to support USB OTG. I don't have interest in custom ROM.

hi there, although you can use the search function for this, i may aswell allow this question for others that wish to follow this.
I typed in USB OTG and got this as top search >http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1820375
please beware this isn't designed to run on our phones, this may or may not work. i would suggest using the search functions and look into HTC variants of this and not other brands. Good Luck in your quest chap :good:

that's not recommended, why would you want to? all you would do is cause force closures and possibly crash the system.apk which renders the phone pretty useless. the system.apk is meant for each phone so for use in another htc model it probably wouldn't work correctly or functions would be missing, and to use in another brand android you will find it won't work at all.
rule of thumb, never move a system app to the sd card. unless you want to reflash your rom again or know how to replace it back again.this goes for google play, and other main system files just to save space.

Since Internal memory is low and I don't want to loose system app , I just wanted to convert system app to user app,install as user app and create a link through link2sd. So that it my internal memory increases.

there's no other way other than rooting and using data2sd to increase memory. its been tried and tested and all you end up with is failure and some serious complications

phone lags with data2sd
I flashed data2sd on my phone and I am using v11 BB X Stock ROM. My phone started hanging after data2sd , what do I do ?

Use Root Browser from Play Store. But do you want to copy the whole folder? You atleast cant save the folder an an .apk. But you can copy all .apk contents for sure.

Please don't encourage users to do the wrong thing. Never move or mess with system apps when they don't know what there Doing. All you said here has contradicted what I said of don't do it.

I have question,
I just got a new 8 GB SanDisk class 10, and have formatted Ext3, should I pop in the card on the existing ROM running existing a Data2Ext script ? Or should I flash the script back into the existing ROM ?

Not able to connect to PC SUITE on P970 with Korean V30I :(

Have flashed my p970 with korean V30I yesterday, but am not able to connect to PC Suite. Actually I wanted to restore my backedup data(Contacts and Memo),
If anyone was successfully able to make connection with PC Suite 4, please explain. :crying:
Software version that I had before flash: v20G-India
PS: One thing I have tried, installing "Republic of Korea"'s Use Drivers, but still no connection possible, then reverted back to P970 Driver.

Of course you can't,in the first place LG does not recognise any other firmwares above v20s.And the ICS ROM is unstable and can't connect to computer
