[Q] My D710 won't connect via USB after 4.0.4 update - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My samsung Galaxy S2 Model SPH-D710 just updated to Android 4.0.4 and now will not connect via USB to my computer running Win7
I never had this problem with it before, first time I tried since that update just the other day and so I'm guessing it has something to do with it.
Running Stock. I don't see anywhere to make it connect to get the phone itself to show up as a drive.

It's been a while since I ran stock ICS but have you tried, settings - storage- menu. That may offer you some more options. Does kies recognise your phone? Also check USB debugging in developer options.
DO NOT PERFORM ANY WIPES AT ALL WHILE RUNNING STOCK 4.0.4

Kies won't install on my puter, go figure, but I have been auto connecting for over a year now just by plugging in and windows seeing it as a drive.
Now I cannot connect to get any pics off my phone storage.
So, I have a Samsung Galaxy S 2, am I in the wrong forums?
If this keeps up I'm just gonna ROOT I hate stock when it starts messing up.

Yes, you're still in the wrong forum.

[Q] Download mode drivers

Ok, got a usb jig and can get into download mode no problem. I can't get phone to be recognized as anything other than an unknown device. Tried the samsung usb drivers as well as the adk drivers. 2 different pc's and 3 different cables. I am running CM7 and I want it back to factory so I can flash something that will allow me to save my family in the event of a fire. Odin never recognizes the phone. Is there someone who has went back to stock from cm7 on a vibrant and could provide me with the proper drivers?
Thank you!
What I did is I downloaded kies mini ince installed on the PC. Plug in the phone and it will download the required drivers for your phone. Once its completed power offthe phone get into download mode and turn on Odin. It should work. Worked for me

[Q] Sgs 2 bricked/not detected as samsung device

Hi guys, i hope you can help me.
So i was on Resurrection 2.1 rom, and my phone wasn't charging properly. That's why i decided to flash the stock ICS rom from Samsung.
I flashed it with Odin, and when it said "Passed" i lifted up my SGS 2 and Odin said "Fail".
Also my 32gb micro sd card broke. When i connect it to my pc, my pc laggs and the card is not recognised.
Now when i try to boot my phone there is a computer connected to the phone with a big yellow triangle.
It says: "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again."
I couldn't flash again with odin because it is detected as an unknown device and not as Samsung device.
I could not find the recovery mode in Kies..
I really hope u can help me with my phone and sdcard issue.
I suggest trying a usb jig to force it to download mode or send it to samsung service center buddy. I have read a problem similar to this and they sent it to samsung service center, dunno if they recovered it them selves.

i can get into download mode without a jig but its not recognised as a samsung device, so i could use odin. -.-

Try uninstalling and reinstall kies. If it does not work try different usb ports. It worked for me. I used one port then after that i tried using the same port but it didn't recognize it anymore. I tried a different port and it did get recognized eventually. Try the different usb port first.

Hi, I don't know if anyone still reads this thread but I my SGS2 is also bricked and I can't seem to find a solution. I was trying to flash the latest resurection rom up from 4.0.3 and during the final reboot it went dark and never cam back. The computer recognizes a usb device being plugged in but does not recognize the drivers. I've tried different USB ports to no avail. Because it won't recognize it I can't get it into download mode which means I can't unbrick it. Any ideas? Thanx!

i9100m not recognized by my computer after root

I rooted my i9100m a couple of months ago and after the rooting process it wasn't recognized by my computer. I didn't really care much though. Well now I do, so I unrooted my phone yesterday by flashing the stock ROM but it still didn't work with my PC. I really hope that my phone isn't broken. Any suggestions? I have reinstalled the samsung kies drivers, tried different usb ports/cables and multiple computers with no luck...

U did flash the correct Rom/Firmware for ur phone and not the international i9100?
Did u try to activate "USB Debugging" in developer settings?
CHEERS

I guess there is a problem with SGS2's USB connector. Try cleaning it with a toothbrush and it may work. Seems crazy, but worked for me and lot of other guys. I came to know about this on XDA...

Just checking, are you sure that you bought an legitimate Samsung Galaxy S3 I9300? Maybe it is a fake? Where did you buy it, was it used before?
Go into settings and then "about phone" and then read what phone model you have.
BTW Kies is the worst crap ever if it comes to Phone management softwares.
Try to uninstall Kies and install only the drivers instead, which you can find here:

are you into download mode first of all? if yes, then are the drivers installed on pc after connecting the phone in download mode? did you stop kies in the background? :good:

I thought keis needed to run for the drivers. Even when I try to connect to keis it won't detect though
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
As @sriram231092 said correctly you have to stop ALL of kies related processes.
The kies is important so your OS will have the required drivers so the device could be recognized.
After installing kies, make sure you do a reboot and then, just before you start ODIN close all the kies related processes.
I also suggest you run ODIN as admin if you're running win 7 or above.

Does device manager(DM) recognizes your device ? try to uninstall drivers from DM and re-connect your phone.
I also suggest using back door input for your usb.

It was the cable that is sh*t, not the phone or the computer.

Try to restart your pc/laptop? Take out the usb cable, restart windows, stop kies, start odin, plug in usb and it should say added.
Ps: you only needed kies to install your phone drivers, so make sure it has installed the drivers, you can check by normally starting your phone, plug in usb and see a popup msg.

Yeah, I am already loving it. Installed ARHD pretty much straight away.
I'm much preferring this phone to the one x I had, everything right down to the volume of the speaker I think is better.
Well it's great to hear
Actually I have 2 S3 at home the other one is my mom's, I've installed for her SAMMY based and I've got AOSP based kinda having the cake and eat it
