Re: USB Device Not Recognized

Windows will display this error if the USB chipset on the PC side isn't supplying good enough power to your phone's USB chip or the USB data lines are getting messed up.

Use a higher quality USB cable and make sure your USB ports are supplying a good stable 5volts. Some laptops USB chipsets are extremely bad at providing good USB power (Same applies to anything USB). Next issue is your connector could be blown out causing a bad connection (either side of the cable). As a last resort try using a shorter USB cable or powered hub.

If all of the above is good, 99% chance its your phone.

As for the laptop issue above, try using a powered USB hub
