Pendrive unable to read "error -71" "unable to enumerate USB device"

A 8GB pendrive was not working in windows, and the owner gave it to me because I use linux and "she heard it is more powerful"

Just inserted in linux, it wasn't working
dmesg output

Some googling
https://paulphilippov.com/articles/how-to-fix-device-not-accepting-address-error No way ... my webcam is also USB

Second attemp
http://askubuntu.com/questions/117524/usb-device-not-accepting-address   

Changed kernel and reboot, same message, not working

Without reboot, the same link has more info

$ sudo -s
# cd /sys/bus/pci/drivers/uhci_hcd

# echo */usb5

# echo 0000:... > unbind 

I tested with usb5, and after some time, it worked
