I've tried everything you suggested aside from reformatting windows.

Blackberry cable? I know it seems miniscule but I've seen it before.

Uninstall the drivers, reboot, and do not install any driver. Connect to pc via usb and see if it finds the drivers and reads correctly on it's own.

you could get it JTAG'd. I'd Google for jtag services which will unbrick a hard brick. I doubt sprint will replace it unless you have a cool rep.

Do you think a JTAG would work? I truly think that this is a problem with the actual USB connector (we had problems with it before it got "stuck", EX: It wouldn't mount USB storage on any machines... Not detected at all when plugged in, aside from being charged). It isn't actually bricked... If my recovery would not have been wiped out by flashing the ROM with a bad MD5 OR, if I could get it to work on a PC/Linux machine I could easily Odin/Heimdall. I'm not exactly sure what a JTAG is, but I am 99% sure that I could fix this if it weren't for some crazy ass hardware issue. I'll try calling around.

Thanks man.

Its a direct communication with the board, is what I've grasped from hearing and reading about it. With this and a program it should rewrite things and allow you to flash things. Although now that I think about it your not hard bricked if you can get into Odin. And jtag usually puts it into download mode. Although I'm sure you can flash the stock firmware via jtag. Like I said Google things

I found replacement power connectors for 5 bucks online... I am pretty skilled with soldering though (i own a tech company lol). Hmmmm
