Haswell System not identifying Droid Phone anymore?

[Belial88]

So I have this odd issue, I can't figure it out.

Gigabyte Z87X-UD3H F6
i7-4770K
rosewill capstone 750w
Droid 4 / Droid Bionic
w7 ultimate 64bit

When I try to hook my phone up via USB to my PC, it isn't recognized. I get a "USB Device Not Recognized
One of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned, and Windows does not recognize it...". It doesn't show up on 'Computer' as a listed drive, but a USB flash drive will.

My USB keyboard, mouse, and webcam all work just fine, in every port. USB 3.0, USB3.0 front panel, USB2.0. Suddenly, neither of my 2 droid phones, tried 2 different usb cables, in every port, works, but they have in the last month just fine. I downloaded the motorola driver even, but I never had to do that before. For a month I never had an issue, I used my phone fine on this PC, and suddenly I can't. I didn't install anything to do so, and I haven't installed anything new since. All my BIOS settings in regards to USB and EHCI/XHCI are at their defaults (Smart Auto, enabled, legacy, etc).

Anyone else with this issue? I just can't fathom what the problem is.

Have you tried in different ports? when you plugin your phone does windows try to configure it?

Might simply be a corrupt driver that it loads from the device via USB.

I've tried every port, and other devices work in every port.

I don't know what you mean by windows trying to configure it.

Corrupt USB? Im not sure what you propose is the issue and fix here.

Your cable could be bad too. Double check the cable and or phone port for lint.

I've used 2 different cables, as noted in the OP. I've also checked every USB port, and every other USB device I have works in every port, and it's a Haswell system (you know, came out like a week ago, not much time for lint...). Seriously, does anyone read posts around here?

Do you have a 2nd system to isolate it to the phone vs the computer?

It was actually both of the cables.

How odd, what are the chances of that. I mean there's only 4 cables in a USB line, that both cables had the 5v and ground still on but the 2 other lines be the ones that were severed, while both of the cables still looking okay physically... I mean the chances of that are just very slim.

Okay it wasn't the cables. I don't know what, but it's not working anymore. Uggh must be some sort of software issue...
