[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iKaosTony:
Yeah, really strange. I have never dropped it in water or let it get in contact with water.

But because of that reason they will not accept it for repairs and I have to deal with it myself.

I have checked the port for dust and pins for bending, nothing wrong with them.

I just tried Wugs Toolkit without success.

I just tried the Universal Naked Driver guide from bourne-nolonger here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=29044502&postcount=735

But I cannot get the window that says 'Windows can't verify the publisher of this driver software' with the button 'Install this driver software anyway'. That is step 3E and 3F. It just skips that and say Unknown Device.

Could it be my USB port being broken? That the reason no computer would recognize it because of that?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 19Max87:
You would have been in a very bad luck if your usb port died spontaneously at the same time you fully wiped your device....

Did you check another cable, often is the easiest solution which is overseen...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iKaosTony:
I did tried using other cables, 2 from other Samsung devices, 1 cheap one and a cable from another Galaxy Nexus.

So I tried it on a computer with all the drivers working from another Galaxy Nexus.

Maybe bring it to a repairstore?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 19Max87:
OK, you installed all the drivers, but did you delete every driver before you installed the new one.

I would try to delete every nexus driver from your computer and start from the very beginning. As the others said, your phone is not bricked and sometimes the drivers just want to fùck brains....

I'm sure you will find the solution, wish you the best of luck... :thumbup:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iKaosTony:
Yes, I have tried deleting and uninstalling every driver or software related to my device or any mobile device. Also I used this to make sure I have got rid of everything
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 19Max87:
Sorry bro, I'm out of ideas... :banghead:

Boot into an Ubuntu live USB. It doesn't require drivers. Just install the adb and fastboot tools from apt-get. There are about 50,000 tutorials on how.

I have tried using Ubuntu to access my device, but no luck either. When I come to the step where I have to use the command 'lsusb' does not show up. I have tried putting my device in Download mode, Fastboot mode and Recovery mode to see if 'lsusb' will show my device.

I do not know what I am doing wrong. :crying:

in recovery mode execute "adb push rom.zip /sdcard/", better from Ubuntu so you don't need any driver

Then flash the rom from the recovery

do you have cwm or twrp? try mounting your device as usb while connected to pc
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iKaosTony:
I am also thinking my USB port is broken...

I have CWM. How do I do that?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stevemw:
In Device Manager can you right-click Unknown Device to view its properties?

You should be able to update the device driver there.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iKaosTony:
I tried that too, but no luck.

Do u have windows 8?? Do u know about driver enforcement lock in it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iKaosTony:
No, I do not have Windows 8, just Windows 7.

Could you explain what 'driver enforcement' is?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stevemw:
Windows 8 will not let you install a device driver that does not have a valid certificate (signature).

Can you uninstall the current driver?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] unmystic:
try adb sideload option.

i think there is no such option on CWM, but only TWRP...

Ley me research a little and see if cwm has it... maybe on the option to "mount" i know i saw that option on another phone with cwm. but i really dont remember exactly
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DEKANZ:
same problem here

hey dude i got the same problem with my nexus.. exactly the same situation happened with your phone.. do you have a progress in fixing the phone?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rej_ares:
stuck with the same problem...:crying:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iKaosTony:
I have uninstalled every drive that has to do with my device, Samsung and toolkits.

There is a sideload option in CWM, but no luck either. None of my computer could recognize my device.

No progress so far. Although I am starting to think my USB port is faulty.

I feel you.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tkirton:
Forget the toolkit. Try this:

1. Download a custom rom (you can try the many custom roms found here on XDA)

2. Boot into recovery

3. Use ADB and type the following command:

adb push <path of rom on hard drive> /sdcard/

4. In your recovery, attempt to install. You'll either see your uploaded rom or you may have to go to folder "0".

If you already got your phone working, then disregard this. I'm a bit late to the party but thought at least I could post this to help you and others.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iKaosTony:
Tried that too. When I use the command 'adb devices' no devices are showing up.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shelterit:
same issue

I have the exact same issue with my GNex. No operating system and no computer (XP, Win7 or 8, OS X, or ubuntu) will recognize the phone. tried numerous cables and computers to no avail. If swapping out the usb works please let us know. The only thing I can think of that I have not trried yet is to connect USB memory stick to my phone. I will try that tonight when I get home though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lilfleck:
I have this same exact issue as well. I've spent hours trying various methods and nothing will work. Question to all with the issue though, are you using the OEM cable or a cheap cable?

I only have a VZ extended cable and a cheap retractable from ebay... My oem one is at work and I will try to remember to bring it home and try again. I may drive over to bestbuy and buy a samsung cable to try that... this is freaking annoying.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stinky73:
I just spent ages reading this thread and have managed to learn two things (pretty good really as we're all supposed to learn one new thing a day) ....

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shelterit:
I have tried the OEM cable and many other cables. At work we must have 30 or so cables and I know I have at least 4 different ones at home. My phone has not been recognized by any computer since I went from ICS to Jelly Bean. It just hasn't been an issue til now. With no OS on my phone and no way of putting a new one on there its pretty much toast.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lilfleck:
I read the entire thread and saw no answers that worked for me and likely the OP.

What makes you believe the USB Port/mobo is fried considering it takes a charge and can transfer files?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lilfleck:
Alright gentlemen, I just ran out to bestbuy to pickup a rocketfish micro usb cable and it fixed my issue. I will note that I followed the instructions on wugfresh's app to remove all drivers, rebooted, then plugged in my phone. As soon as I plugged it in, Windows immediately installed the correct drivers. I tried to update them to the latest naked driver, but it didnt make a difference. It was already setup correctly.

Erase all old drivers and software

Reboot windows 7

Enable usb debugging

Plugin cable with phone in OS

Windows should install correct driver

Verify in Device manager

Boot into fastboot and windows should install proper driver for this as well

If it doesn't follow steps to update with naked driver

I then tested adb devices, and it still came up blank... odd, but I tried to push the new bootloader anyway and it worked beautifully... what a huge pain in the butt. Now I can try the latest release of PA!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Pirateghost:
Adb and fastboot are 2 completely separate protocols. You cannot use adb commands in fastboot and vise versa.

I have a usb data cable which is packaged when i bought my gnex.i think its an original cable from samsung
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stinky73:
I was referring to the OP who clearly did not have the same problem as you ;)

For your thing the way you described the things you did doesn't really make it clear whether it was the cable or the drivers as you state you used wugfresh then plugged in the device...would have been interesting to know

Anyway, glad you got it fixed :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lilfleck:
Hm... thanks for that. Would explain why it doesn't show up in fastboot!

I missed the part where he had water damage. I did read through the thread though and saw multiple people posting the same issue. I have deleted the drivers multiple times, followed proper instructions from Wug to ensure the computer was clean, yet it wasn't installing the correct driver and it wouldn't let me update it.

I am certain it was the cable in my case.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iKaosTony:
I will keep you guys updated on the USB port replacement. The tools and replacement part should arrive this or next week.

If replacing my USB port on my Galaxy Nexus I will try by using a new bought original USB cable.

I also see that your third step; 'Enable usb debugging', is not possible for me to do because I do not have any OS on my device.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Pirateghost:
Fastboot devices will list devices in fastboot mode, much the same way adb devices does in adb.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DEKANZ:
this what i've done before i came to this problem..

my gnex was already rooted, unlocked bootloader and have custom ROM.. I decided to change ROM since i already got an update for jb 4.3 so i search for latest custom ROM with 4.3 firmware.. When i got one, i follow the tutorial given.. i transfer my files then reboot my phone into recovery mode.. I didnt make a nandroid back up since its my 2nd time to change ROM.. Then i tap wipe/reset data, wipe cache, wipe delvik cache, wipe data file then wipe system.. After i wiped those stuffs i tap reboot system now then it prompts me that my SU is missing.. Then i tap reboot and install SU so my phone reboot then all of a sudden ir was stucked in google logo only.. So reboot again into CWM then it already prompts that "no file contexts" in the lower portion of the screen..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stinky73:
What do you expect if you wipe everything including "system" then reboot the phone? You are asking the phone to reboot into a system that is no longer there....I think you'll either have to try to use adb to push rom to the phone then reinstall from recovery or use odin to reinstall a stock rom
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zepius:
DO NOT USE ODIN....

USE FASTBOOT! its like people just dont get that ODIN is not supported
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stinky73:
Sorry, just come here straight from the galaxy tab forum and hadn't changed operating/thinking mode... oops! :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] samersh72:
sure fastboot is preferred for google devices....but ODIN STILL AN OPTION for all

dont throw your Nexus if bootloader is corrupted and cant get into fastboot mode.....

You can use Ubuntu Live CD as your OS and push the needed files to your device.

I wish I could do that :p, but I still have to wait for my replacement part.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DEKANZ:
i cant wait for my phone to be fix.. Since i am a postpaid subscriber i went to the customer service to have my phone checked.. They gave me a certificate telling that my phone was still under warranty so they refer me to the service center of samsung.. I just told them that my phone was corrupted after i backed up my data on my computer but it wasn't successful due to sudden power interruption.. Hahaha.. So they told me to left my phone for 2-3 days for general check up.. Hopefully they would not detect that it was already rooted.. Lol.. I'll just wait for they're feedback until sunday..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iKaosTony:
I did the same thing. Still had warrenty and tried to get it fixed by Samsung. They returned it unfixed and said it had water damage :eek:

EDIT:

Good news!

After replacing the USB port of my device, my computer does recognize it again and is also installing the drivers.

Then I put the device in recovery mode, pushed the ROM to my device 'adb push /test/pa.zip /sdcard/0' and it all worked.

Although I was getting the message 'Warning: No file_contextsFixing fs-size in crypto footer...' when I installed the new ROM. Could someone please explain what this means?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shelterit:
Just in case anyone else does the same stupid thing I did, here is my experience:

Phone: Verizon Galaxy Nexus with TWRP recovery.

Problem 1: Phone would not be recognized by any computer. Tried multiple cables and computers but no luck.

Solution: Tried one more cable (wife’s OEM Samsung S3 cable) the last one in the house and it worked.

Problem 2: Had an issue with 4.3 and while trying to correct it I did a full wipe of the phone, including system files. Well, I was left with a phone with no Operating System and since my phone was not being recognized by any computer, I had no way of installing any software.

Solutions: after I tried the 30th cable I was able to load the drivers following section A. from here

I tried to use ADB at this point but it just wouldn’t work. Not sure why, but I could not get the computer to see my phone. So, I tried using Fastboot. I followed section C and D from here. (same guide as above)

My computer was able to see my phone and I was able to lock, unlock, & reload the bootloader but whenever I tried to flash the new files it would get an unknown error. “fastboot cannot flash due to unknown error” was the message I received.

Thoroughly frustrated I had one last thing to try, ODIN. I was able to find all the files needed by using Google. I loaded the pit file, the PDA and phone .tar and gave it a shot. To my surprise and delight it worked.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheNymf:
I saw the same warning. Any suggestions or some info on that?

A bunch of songs on my phone have had their titles replaced (in Play Music/Apollo) with 4 digit numbers.

Couldn't find any posts related.

What do?

Thanks!
[HTC Rezound] acejavelin:
Grab an MP3 Tag editor from any file repository and open one of the problem files in it, verify that the title and artist are correct in the MP3 tag. This would be my first thought, and if incorrect or contain special characters, change them to plain text letters/numbers. You may have to clear data on the music player app in question and then restart it and let it rebuild it's database, some apps use their own data base (like Play Music or WinAmp) and some use the Media Storage application for their database, if you have to clear the data on Media Storage, unmount and remount the SD Card afterwards to initiate the database rebuild.
