Is the phone Rooted? What kind of phone is it? I'll assume it has an SD Card. If the phone is Rooted. Do you have a Custom Recovery installed? Such as Clowork Mod. You do not need USB to flash a Rom. You do need a Recovery installed. Pull the SD Card, put the Rom on the Root of your SD Card. Boot into Recovery, do a full wipe. Then flash the Rom.

You said your in USB Debugging mode. Go into Menu-Settings-Applications-development, make sure it's checked. Didn't find any custom Recovery for the device. I did find Unlock Root that says it will root the device. Link is below.

Make sure your USB Cable is a good one. Had a similar issue a while back, USB just quit being recognized. Turned out my cable had gone bad. They wear out like anything else. Also, beware of knock off USB Cables.

You should be able to find the USB Cable you need here in the states, or online. Unless it's something really strange. The cacle will still charge the device, because that does not put much demand on the cable. But if it's transfering data, and it's frayed, or damaged in anyway it will not work.

yup it needed a usb cable with 20 pins which is very hard to find here in the Philippines because most phones use here are only the popular ones which has only less than 20 pins in the teeth of the usb cable
