[Q] Galaxy tab 10.1v unrecognized by computer

Hmm the best way to approach this would be to wonder what you're actually seeing, would you be as so kind enough to upload a screenie via whatever method you suggest of the screens you see? I don't wanna make hasty judgements without seeing other options

Thanks for the feedback, I've looked into this and I've done the same, and should be uploading a few shots shortly.



Apparently everything works great for you as planned, nothing is wrong with the tablets response or the USB ports as the drivers seem to be grand, could it be that the wire you are using is not the original or probably no connection is made via the cable and pc, one thing is for sure, it's either the wire pins are broken or wire is grounded. Have you tried with a brand new cable? Because as far as I can see everything checks out, as you can see on my tablet we have similar displays shown.

I mean think about it, laptops are not fault as both accept USB I mean how the hell do you move a mouse if your USB ports are broken, tablet is not faulty either it works perfectly as planned, it's the wire..

That is possible, when the wire is grounded it doesn't seem to respond, I wish I could upload or post a video, the same applies to my old iPod 2G which is now a hand down to my youngest sister, The cable works perfectly when charging, BUT when you plug it via USB it doesn't recognize the USB device.

I think I can do that via screenshots, let me show you. Give me a few minutes.

Edit: Used the 3GS instead and yes this is an original wire, mind you. I hope you don't mind the semi blurred shots, was somewhat in a hurry The first shot shows that it charges perfectly, you can even see the charging icon, the second however shows that when plugged via USB it doesn't even recognize it.

Yes it's very explicit thank you. But the problem is still the same : whatever I do, when I plug the table with usb I don't see any pop up window (like the one on your secon picture), I don't hear any sound and i don't see anything in the device manager.

My brain is somewhat running out of options but now atleast we have tackled almost 90% of the options viable. If you claim the wire is in perfect condition then let us agree that it is. See I'm not physics major but I do know that as long as metal surfaces touch one another, there will be electrical contact possible. With that as reference maybe you are right, maybe the wire is fine, USB wise, but maybe the contact pins where you plug the wire to the tablet isn't, probably during a rush the person didn't pull it out properly, or perhaps rushed to remove the wire and probably bent a few pins. Despite being bent, it will charge perfectly but I don't think data transmission will take place you may have to check if all the pins are straight, kinda like this?

[|||||||||||] (Horrible representation I know forgive me)

Since you can't boot up the tablet to check if the tablet charges via USB to PC (Because without the offline charge script in Overcome the tablet won't charge via USB, this was meant as a safety precaution to save it incase you needed to drain it completely to restore it, as my tutorial states in this section) you can't really confirm this which kinda sucks. Which leaves you 2 options to determine the "alpha problem"

1) Borrow another Galaxy Tab wire (All Galaxy Tab wire's are the same in general) and try connecting it, IF by any said miracle that it detects the USB, the voila, USB wire is the problem.

2) If the borrowed/alternative wire didn't work, then it's the contact pins in the tablet.

I don't see how this is a bad idea, but would 140% pin down the main issue. (pun intended )

PS- I just remembered I had an old Nokia whose pin's for reading the SIM card were bent? (Some fat asshole sat on my phone when it slipped out my pocket at a party and shattered it ;_; FUUUUU) it detected the SIM, but after a while it gave SIM card error. SIM was perfectly fine regardless.

I would like to know your feedback on this, would help alot Maybe for future references?

Well then the wire theory is what's left You have nothing to lose anyways, you can get a cheap tab wire somewhere I guess.

I've never seen the fastboot words come up on my device, and haven't dealt with it with others, so Misledz, could you please help here?
Thanks bro.

I guess it differs per tablet? I'm not entirely sure, but my Download mode text popup's were as what I posted, whereas he is using the 7510 Basically just the download mode screen. It shows up on the 7510 Download mode screen, just not on the 7500 series

PS- So much happens when one goes to sleep, which is why...Sleep is for the weak >:]!

@Jux sure man, just keep me posted :]

I finally managed to borrow a cable from a friend of mine.

So I plugged the tab in downloading mode to the usb...and Tab detected and drivers installed!!!!!!!

I finally get the communication, and restored the Tab.

Really strange that the cable allows to charge but not to communicate?! Plus, with the defect cable, the battery is charging when I plug the usb, with the good one, it doesn't?!

Whatever, thank you all for your time and advices.

PS : do I have to put a "resolved status" for this topic or not?
