    [SOLUTION] After a whole week of searching all possible solutions for this issue, starting from re-installing drivers and trying different power options and far to dialing secret code *#7284# , etc.... and all of them failed. so what ended up to be the simple solution is so weird because a week ago when the problem started I tried a different USB Cable actually the original USB cable next to the main one that wasn't working but it showed the same error "USB Device not recognized"
    FINALLY TODAY I TRIED THAT OTHER USB CABLE THAT SHOWED THE SAME ERROR A WEEK AGO, BUT FOR SOME REASON IT WORKED THIS TIME LIKE CHARM.
