I restored my computer last week and since then I haven't been able to connect my sd card through the micro-usb cable. The drivers for it will not automatically download and I have already gotten the official Samsung drivers from the website. The drivers that aren't downloading are
SAMSUNG Android USB Modem
Android UMS
S3C6410 Android Adb
Any help or places that I could get these drivers would be greatly appreciated
Yeah, I was having the problem. What is your operating system?
I tried rebooting with it plugged in, although sometimes it would knock out my keyboard drivers? I even sometimes had to reset cmos... However, if you plug the cable in the back of the computer (Directly into the mobo) then it should work when rebooting. Just make sure you are in mass storage before you reboot the computer.
It should also recognize it as a storage device in the future if it works . Just play with it, took me a while....
Make sure that Applications -> Development -> USB Debugging is unchecked too.

After rooting the phone (in this case to leedroid) I have been having trouble with 2 xp machines at work.
Both detect the phone as "unknown device".
Doesnt matter what I select, charge only, sync, disk drive, adb usb debugging.
I have uninstalled / reinstalled htc drivers repeatedly.
Tried just using android sdk drivers.
I have deleted
C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\Wdf01000.sys,
2. Remove: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Wdf
3. Remove: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Wdf01000
I have also removed anything under Vid_0000&Pid_0000
Everytime I plug it in, windows detects it as unknown device. It wont let me update the drivers.
Help please!
what do you mean it prevents you from manually updating drivers? has it ever worked before? have you tried showing hidden devices via command line then removing the old device manually and then reconnecting it?
yep did all that hidden devices stuff too.
You wont believe this but I saw a post about someone using a thicker usb cable. I recently switched to using a retractable micro usb cable at work. I brought the original htc usb cable into work today, plugged it in xp detected the phone straight away!!!!!
who would have thought a cable was the problem!!?? All that wasted time!
Let me start by saying I have read dozens of threads on connection issues from the original galaxy to the s2 and none of them have worked. Here is my problem. When I plug in my phone I get a MTP connected dialogue box but kies will not recognize my phone and odin won't recognize my phone in download mode. My computer's device manager doesn't even show drivers installed or any yellow triangles at all. As a matter of a fact, my computer does NOTHING when I plug in my phone. No installing drivers dialogue box or anything. I have tried manually mounting usb storage mode to no avail. I can not transfer files, root my phone or do anything. I'm running stock EK02. Also, with usb debugging box checked my phone just charges with no pc connection at all. with usb debugging unchecked it will show the mtp connected but my computer doesn't show anything
Here is what I've tried:
Installing and reinstalling kies about a dozen times.
uninstalling and reinstalling samsund drivers
rebooting my phone
tried different computers
I EVEN BOUGHT A NEW COMPUTER (brand new nothing installed)
Then I bought a new usb cord
restarted my computer several times
checked then unchecked usb debugging just in case
Please Help, I'm completely stumped......
I can get on multiple chats for anyone interested (gtalk, facebook, irc, whatever) or take responses here. thank you in advance.
--------------------------
UPDATE: so it was the USB cord the while time. Apparently you should really only use the USB cord that came with the phone, which I lost and had to borrow from someone else.
I have had this phone for only two days now. My previous phone was an EVO. I got my Epic 4G Touch via a trade and there is one thing that I cant figure out... and feel quite silly asking the question.
When I plug the phone into my PC via USB, I do not get an option or prompt to choose whether to connect as a hard drive / charge only / or tether my internet connection like I did on my EVO. It seems that it only allows me to connect in charge only mode. I have been unable to find an option to choose to connect as a hard drive in the settings menu.
Any help with this solution will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Robert
Ok, enabling the USB debugging and then unplugging and plugging in the USB fired up those settings, but it did not find drivers for:
CDC Serial or SAMSUNG_Android... I am going to search the forum for that answer.
Settings>Wireless and Networks>USB Utilities. That's how you get to USB mode. But yes debugging mode also works. But once you plug your phone in the mtp mode should connect. You can also access media on PC that way and ur sd card is still accessible thru phone, unless you're actively syncing something then you get the sync screen.

Thanks for the reply folks. I had me EVO so long that I forgot about enabling debugging mode. I did that and I finally got the drop down menu to enable me to use the phone as a hard drive.
My issue now is that I cannot seem to get two drivers to install correctly. I read through many posts, both here and ones I found via google, that suggested that I install Kais from Samsung's website to fix the driver issue. I did that, and applied all of the updates to the program that were available, and I am still getting the error saying that those drivers did not install correctly. I can browse the SD card now that Kais Air is installed, but I am still having the driver issue in device manager.
I am not sure where these drivers can be obtained...

Other than Kies, your pc should install drivers upon connecting phone. I've had this happen before. I uninstalled the drivers I found via google, restarted my pc, reconnected my device and it immediately began downloading proper drivers. I was good to go from then on.
You may wanna try, once device is connected to pc to
-go to start menu
-computer, and see if your device is there
Hello all!
First: I promise I searched the forums and google as hard as I could!
I'm running AOKP JB with CWM, although the problem was present on stock ICS from T-Mobile.
Symptoms: Computer and phone will refuse to acknowledge any connection (nothing shows up in Device Manager), except the phone will still charge. If I do the "remove the battery with USB plugged in" trick, the first time I do it, it will recognize an unknown device, but kies and adb won't recognize it. If I unplug it and plug it back in, it'll go back to not acknowledging any connection.
I previously programmed it (when I was still running stock ROM) via ADB via WiFi, but I need to be able to use ADB via USB. Besides, I can't seem to get ADB over WiFi anymore.
When I plug it into a different computer (Win7), it will, however, recognize my phone.
Earlier this year, before I ever tried programming via WiFi, it connected to my Win8 machine with no problem. I don't think it's a problem with the wifi setup though because the ROM was reinstalled and of course I've restarted ADB in USB mode in the months since...
What I've tried:
Reinstalling Kies
Reinstalling Samsung USB drivers
[^]Restarting the ADB server
Updating ADB
Trying different USB cables
Trying different USB ports
Toggling USB debugging
Toggling MTP mode
The UART thing from the dialer
Restarting the phone and the computer (of course)
Checking to see if my computer's USB drivers need to be updated
The android terminal command "setprop persist.sys.usb.config mass_storage,adb"
Pulling and replacing the battery while connected via USB
Crying in a corner
If anyone can help me, it'd be greatly appreciated! I'm all out of ideas and Google is no longer helpful =/
try to uninstall the drivers that are present anything samsung related to your drivers ... then connect the phone and let the process do its thing if you have the samsung drivers saved on your PC and the drivers still aint working update the drivers and then manually click where the drivers are to install them and hopefully it will work and when you tried MTP is it the only option it gives you no storage or anything ??... and is usb debugging on when you are trying all this ??

I tried on my work computer that didn't have any samsung drivers and when the "unknown device" dialog popped up it didn't do anything or install anything, nor did it show up in Device Manager. Unplugging and replugging it back in did not reproduce the dialog box. Togged USB Debugging and still no dialog box saying it recognized it.
The thing with the samsung drivers is that they're self installing so even if it popped up in Device Manager, I wouldn't be able to manually update the drivers =/
I tried MTP both with and without USB Debugging, although it also gives the option for PTP.
At this point do you think I should unroot and go back to stock? It's not been recognized on three computers now! =[
Are you using the stock cable? My computer wouldn't recognize mine without it.

Both the stock cable and a generic cable.
Similar problem
Similar problem as the OP. And hi guys, it's nice to be on these forums.
My device, when I plug it in using the stock cable, doesn't even charge. It doesn't show up in device manager, nor does it give me a notification, or say it's unsupported and bear that yellow icon. I have tried using different USB ports, I have tried the toggling USB debugging, I have tried restarting phone, computer, and taking out battery. I have tried that PDA/MODEM dialer trick. I am using 4.1.2 Jellybean, not rooted. (that WAS my goal,, until I hit this roadblock) I have not connected it to the computer in the past, it's relatively new. I'm thinking the cable is bust.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. It charges fine through a wall outlet plug, be it generic or stock.
so guys ive come to a conclusion i think its something in the samsung usb cables try getting yourself a blackberry usb cable , TRUST ME !!! ever since i got my phoness etc... tablet and yadi yadi samsung usb cables have always seemed to give me problems i think its because they are multi data/charging cables and when using the blackberry usb cable i have never ever once encountered a problem with any of my phones sd/storage problems do yourself a favor and pick up one of those cables and you will be golden !! if not then i guess im the only lucky one :LOL here you go http://www.amazon.com/Blackberry-Travel-Adapter-Micro-Cable/dp/B004VMVSYK/ref=pd_sim_cps_2 5 bucks!
Edit also one more test boot into recovery and click in the advanced menu and see if mount usb works for you in recovery mode ??
FIX (try using a generic cable)
I actually solved it on my own! After borrowing a generic cable from a friend it booted up! The Samsung cable was just not doing its thing.
yeah im telling you those cables they provide are JUNK!!! i only use my samsung to charge because they do that well but data they are str8 CRAP!! glad you got it up and going
OP
Hope OP will have the same luck as me...pray to the Android gods...

Ok so I'm extraordinarily frustrated with getting this to work. I've searched the forum to the point of a headache. Something about the .inf file and hardwar id's. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers a million times. I've even reflashed the stock rom. Can anyone help? usb debugging works and PTP works. Currently back to stock and all drivers currently uninstalled.

Ok, I decided to use a laptop which has never had my N7 attached to it as MTP, only as adb for wugs (before I got comfortable with doing things manually), I had the same problem you did, this is what fixed it. I had used koushes adb driver installer on it, so his driver kept intercepting it.
First I got these drivers and unpacked them: http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html#
Then I plugged in my device, with PTP enabled and updated drivers and browsed to those drivers and let it install...this did not fix it.
Disable usb debugging, plug it in, enable MTP, then go into device manager, then go into the menu and show all devices, you should see something like Google ADB driver, right-click and uninstall it, selecting delete driver checkbox, then reboot your nexus 7 while still plugged in, it should redetect your N7 as a "Nexus 7" and you should see it in Computer as a Portable Media Player, then unplug the device, wait 3-4 seconds to make sure its unmounted, then plug it back in, you should now actually see files.
NOW, once I saw that that worked, I noticed PTP stopped working, leave it plugged in, switch to PTP. then you will see the ADB driver back, uninstall it again, reboot the device leaving it plugged in, it will redetect the device again, it will say MTP again even though it's in PTP, let it finish, then unplug the device, wait a few seconds, and plug it back in, now you should be able to see it connected as a camera, and should be able to see files, now I can switch PTP ro MTP and back again with debugging off resulting in it working fine.
NOTE: USB debugging only works right in PTP mode for me.. which is fine, I tested to make sure that once debugging was off, I can unplug the device, and plug it back in and I can still switch between MTP and PTP perfectly.
EDIT: Actually I am now going to try leaving debugging enabled, in MTP mode, uninstall the ADB driver and reboot the device and see if that fixes that problem too.
EDIT2: AND IT WORKED!
So now I can have debugging on and off, in MTP and PTP mode, adb devices works perfect for either mode.
In summary, i think the REAL trick here is to put the device in each mode combination one at a time, delete the device and driver from device manager and reboot the device while it's still plugged in, then unplug the device and plug it back in, you do this for every combo outlined below, a total of rebooting and unplugging/plugging in the device 3 times...because PTP+debug on or off worked already
MTP on - Debugging off - find entry in device manager, uninstall it, reboot device, leaving it plugged in, verify it shows in Computer, unplug device, wait 3-4 seconds plug device back in, verify you can see files.
PTP on - Debugging off - find entry in device manager, uninstall it, reboot device, leaving it plugged in, verify it shows in Computer, unplug device, wait 3-4 seconds plug device back in, verify you can see files.
MTP on - Debugging on - find entry in device manager, uninstall it, reboot device, leaving it plugged in, verify it shows in Computer, unplug device, wait 3-4 seconds plug device back in, verify you can see files.
..at the end you should be able to have MTP and PTP fully working with or without debugging on.
Try installing Sony PC Companion. It will install the necessary drivers. Works great with my Nexus 7 when connecting to PC in Windows XP .
I'm on WIndows 8.1 and when I connect my N7 2013 to PC, it gives me error Unknown USB Device (port reset failed). Anybody knows how I could fix this issue?

mtp
ive had my n7 for couple months now and mtp never worked only ptp until about a week ago when in cleanrom thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2383146&page=389 post 3877 asked 3888 answered. I checked in android devices and did not have the android composite adb interface. so I simply unistalled the drivers I had and plugged in device and bam. working great since. don't know if it was related but the day before I updated my sdk and there were some google drivers in the update list. hope this helps someone!
I don't mind airdroid as an alternative but soooo much nicer to plug in and drag and drop!! GL!!
