Does anyone know if the Galaxy S is supposed to transfer drivers when attached to a machine via usb? I've tried installing samsung usb drivers/multiple kies versions on both xp and windows 7 x86 machines however I've not once got the device installed. The first machine I tried it on did register the device Samsung_android had been attached however after factory resting it now appears as 'unkown. If it does install drivers, would it be possible to retrieve them from the galaxy s source? Would flashing the phone with a custom rom include the device drivers?
I would really appreciate any suggestions, I love the device but I've been trying to resolve this issue since I bought the phone
By default it uses Kies when you connect it via USB, go into options - About Phone - USB Settings and choose "ask me what to do" then you can choose MTP to mount it as a USB drive, choose it as a modem, etc. You need to go into the slide-down notifications menu and click on MTP mode then. For Mac's you need to enable USB debugging as well.
Thanks for your reply however I've tried connecting using each of the connection options. I am given the option to mount the internal SD card and lists 'MTP conneced' but the machine it's connected to still lists 'unkown device' within dev manager. I've also tried enabling USB debugging but even adb doesn't list the galaxy s.
Regardless of the device setting windows still displays 'device not recognized'. I've looked at the drivers within samsung\usb_driver but the folders are listed by development alias so its hard to determine which driver is for the i9000 I read on a forum that someone had this problem and Samsung replaced the drivers on the galaxy, I'm not sure if that's true or it was some other fix but if the galaxy does provide the machine with drivers maybe I can extract them and install directly to the machine
I don't have access to the NAND as I have not rooted it, but if you want I can do a directory listing of the internal SD and you can see what you are missing. I can then copy the files for you.

I like this community already, thanks mate but you don't have to go to the trouble. I returned the device to vodafone for a replacement. The replacement connected first time and I can now access the device without any problems
No doubt others will have this issues so...
Galaxy S "unknown Device" - If you have tried
Installing Samsung USB drivers for your operating system (There are both x86(32bit) and x64(64bit) versions of these drivers for windows.
Setting the Galaxy S to MTP on usb connect (Settings>About Phone>USB settings
Resetting your Galaxy S to factory settings (Settings>Privacy>Factory Reset)
Enabling usb debugging (Settings>Application>Development)
Formatting your internal SD card (Settings>SD Card..) Unmount before and re mount after formatting
Installing various versions of keis bloatware
and your Galaxy S is still listed as "unknown device" within windows device manager. Try taking it back to the store and asking for a replacement, this was the only step which worked for me and it worked first time Remember to explain all the steps you've taken and if you have to, ask for a demonstration of the device successfully connecting before you accept that there isn't an issue.
No worries, glad you are sorted now.
Hi,
i tryed to get the Desire working with adb and everything works fine. I downloaded HTC Sync, installed only the drivers, and the adb interface worked with the Desire. But if i reboot in bootloader and use fastbootinterface it doesn't work.
fastboot devices get no result.
I downloaded unrevoke modified drivers, i also tryed to uninstall HTC driver and install only the modifed drivers. I also tryed to use this drivers:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1161769
but always the same problem:
The device manager shows adb Intreface and there the HTC bootloader, but with and yellow !. properties of the Device shows me following error:
original Error log said:
Das Gerät kann nicht gestartet werden. (Code 10)
A request for the USB BOS descriptor failed.

Translation in my own words: said:

And i installed the drivers correctly. So with settings, reboot and tha with deactivate the driver signature.
I hope you can help me
You should uninstall everything and start from the beginning. HTC sync clearly messed something up.
First, try to reinstall hboot drivers.
allready tryed but i get the same error.
google "the devices can not be started (code 10)"
happened to me before, its a windows problem. u have to delete something , cant remember what tho.
i uninstalled every thing desire also the not shown devices in devices manager. than i connected the desire in fastboot with pc and the pc gets the driver from alone. But with the error.
Thanks for the tip with the delete something. but the only results i find are something about reinstall the driver, update the driver, uninstall the driver, ask the support of the device -.-
Do you know maybe a link word what i need to delete? is it a file, an old driver,...??
http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&sour...9oGABg&usg=AFQjCNH1CYaPX1ZheHJ-vYr2Y3GDNFFvWw
try here, the thing that worked for me was deleting somthing in the registry.
thank you very much i'll try it
Just found the time to read the link.
One question? I looked for the Device Class GUID for USB. But there is no lowerfilter and upperfilter. What class is the desire?
I got a similar problem on my workstation, I got an Android Phone in device manager and nothing else, I'm not able to connect and mount desires SD Card. Windows 7 x64, on my laptop (same os) everthing works fine. My PC recognizes desire only with drivers from Android SDK software.
i think your problem is a bit diferent. Do you have a custom ROM installed?
If you did and it is an android 4.x ROM there are many Problems with USB mount. Try an app to mount the SD Card.
Back to my problem. I readed all of the site from up to down and than i deletet the Keys. After Reboot 2 times i got the bluescreen -.- after that the autorepair startet it selfs. the first couldn't repiar the system, and the second couldn't either. So i needed to reinstll windows
The good thing with this is There is difently no HTC on the PC anymore. So in what order i need to install which drivers to get the Desire in Fastboot connected?
A the moment I'm using CronMode 2.1 (previous CM 2.0, SpazeDog ICS, BravoBCM). On previous roms (all ICS based on CM9) got same problem. Laptop - ASUS S6F, Windows 7 Pro x64 - phone recognized, usb mount working fine. Desktop - Gigabyte P55-UD3, Windows 7 Pro x64 - just got Android Phone in device manager and that's all.
What app do you mean?
Try Usb mass storage toggle form the market.

Ok then... reinstall your OS on the PC. If your tried everything, it's the last solution I can think of.
You can first try to reinstall the Driver.
Back to my problem in what order do i need to install the drivers for fastboot?
I can't reinstal OS. It's my workstation... I work on it. I tried with a lot of drivers (even from SDK), same effect "Android Phone" or ADB Interface device.

Some firms disable this ability and also SD card reading for security purposes. That can be only reason i can think of.
Sent from my HTC Desire
I'm also a sysadmin of this machine, so you can belive me, just a build-in firewall and security essentials as antivirus protection software.
My wife's Desire S shows the same problem. I think it is a driver issue. Can someone recommend a single "htc desire driver" for Windows 7 64bit?
Shows up on my laptop but not on my desktop, have tried back and front USB ports
have uninstalled USB drivers, reinstalled USB drivers (universal adbdriversetup6 downloaded from xda sources)
downloaded android SDK manager and installed whatever USB stuff it had there
used USBdeview to remove any nexus 7 related things and then re-install USB drivers
Cannot for the life of me figure out what's going on... can anyone help me please
When I plug it in my desktop it makes the sound like something got connected... even has the safely remove hardware thing with nexus 7 there, but nothing in my computer
also have tried with/without USB debugging
tried removing my rom and flashing stock etc
Nothing has worked so far
and yes forgot to put in the title but this is for the Nexus 7FHD 2013
Is there a chance you are using usb3.0 port and can switch to usb2.0?
I would suggest you backup, flash stock, and redo your driver deinstall/install on stock. Try to get it working there first. Make sure USB debugging is disable on stock.

Driver instal with WinXP
I went around with this problem after both my Win7 laptop and WinXP desktop both recognized my N7 2013 the first time I connected to them. I had no problem dragging and dropping files.
I had then returned the tab back to BB for a exchange for another. This time after setting up the tab and setting the MTP file toggle and USB settings correctly......The Win7 laptop worked find and recognized the N7 just like it did on the first tab. But now the WinXP desktop did not work and only saw the N7 as a ABD device.
You may already have the correct drivers (if not those are available here in several posts). You just have to direct windows driver update to the correct place for the MTP driver. Here is how i did it.
1. Open up the Device Manager on your PC and locate the Android device it sees. Select the update driver option and you get to the "Welcome to the Hardware Update Wizard" screen.
2. In this window it asks "Can Windows connect to Windows Update to search for software?" Select the 3rd option ' No, not at this time"
3. In the next window "This wizard helps you install software for...." Select the 2nd option "Install from a list or specific location (Advanced)
4. In the "Please choose your search and installation options" window... go down to the bottom and select "Don't search, I will choose the driver to install" option.
5. Now finally the window we need..... "Select the device driver you want to install for this hardware" The "show compatible hardware" button should be selected...if not check that box. You should see 2 choices in the "Model" area..... Google Nexus ADB Interface" and what we need to select " MTP Device" click on the MTP Device and hit next......it should install and your Nexus 7 should then show up properly.
Hope this works for all that have had a hard time as I did....I just found it odd after getting a replacement N7 my XP desktop did not recognize it as it did to the original one I used the day prior.

If nothing else here has helped you solve this issue, check my thread, it should be of some help to you...
I'm having an issue where I can connect to my laptop in debug mode, but I'm not able to connect in the MTP mode with debug turned off. I expected to be able to mount the device storage in either mode.
Is that correct? If so, any ideas? I do notice I can't seem to get the MTP driver to stay in device manager.

Windows 8.1; but had same problem with Windows 7 computer.
USB device not recognized
The last USB device you connected to this computer malfunctioned. And Windows does not recognize it.
Windows has stopped this device because it has reported
problems. (Code 43) A request for the USB device descriptor failed
Tried using WUGS Toolkit to install drivers, not happening.
The phone charges via usb port with no problems
On top of that, daughter wiped phone, there are no ROMS, or usable backups.
I can get into TWRP Recovery, but it can recover what isn't there. Tried factory
reset, still nothing. No matter what I do, I get No OS Installed! Are you
sure you wish to reboot? If I do reboot, just get GOOGLE screen with lock
symbol.
Without being able to get a computer to see the phone, I can't get a ROM to
load.
Maybe change USB port with cable? But I don't want to do that if the problem
is software related.
Any ideas what I can do???
I just went through something similar like this last week, what a pain in the A$$.
Not entirely sure if this will fix your issue, but hopefully it'll help some how.
I ended up having to manually install galaxy nexus driver so I could sideload a ROM since I formatted my internal storage to test out this new F2FS BS... Anyways.
LOL
First you'll need to download and unzip "universal naked driver 0.72" Google it.
Now, without your GN connected open device manager and THEN when you plug in your GN to your PC you should see it pop up in the portable devices section.
AND also under other devices there should be "galaxy nexus" right click on it and click "update driver software"
Click "browse my computer for driver software" select the unzipped universal naked driver folder, click next and click "install this driver software anyway"
Now it should show "Google galaxy nexus ADB interface" in device manager under Samsung Android Phone.
Reboot GN into bootloader
OR
recovery (if you have a ADB supported recovery eg. TWRP 2.7.0.0, and enter ADB mode)
Now there are 2 ways to do flash an Android OS, some may find 1 easier then the other:
download/install "Wug's Nexus Root Toolkit aka NRT v1.8.3.sfx"
Google it.
Run NRT and it'll instruct and guide you through the steps required and whatever is needed to continue, eg. Select device, download TWRP 2.7.0.0...ETC.
Or
Download/install ADB setup 1.3
Google it.
I found this method a little more simpler.
Open the folder you have your ROM/gapps zip files saved on your PC, hold down shift key and right click on the folder, click "Open command window here"
Now in the command window type in "adb sideload XXXXX.zip"
XXXXX = COPY/PASTE the ROM file name. Eg. 20140615PA443RC2.zip
Press enter and now it'll flash the ROM onto your GN.
Repeat the same steps for gapps/kernel zip files.
Reboot your GN and enjoy.
BTW
I'm still loving running ParanoidAndroid Jellybean 4.1.2.
Its like pain in the A** to install phone/adb drivers in win8/8.1
I had a similar issue with my gNex a while ago but i had the drivers installed in my pc so it wasn't that difficult.
Why don't you try to install this toolkit http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal.../gnex-toolkit-v11-1-0-drivers-backup-t1392310
When you run the toolkit, it may ask you to select your device, build number etc and also about installing device drivers.
Install the drivers through it and then connect the device in recovery (twrp) mode.
it should detect it and then you can push files/roms to sdcard (internalMemory) using adb push or the built in options in the toolkit.
then flash the rom and you're done
and i recommend using win7 or xp or vista for doing this because the driver installation in win8/8.1 is a bit difficult compared with other previous windows versions but there is still a way to install drivers in win8/8.1 its just a lengthy process
All the best :good:

You have to go to the device manager, double click on the "unknown usb..."
a dialog box may appear and then click on the 'driver' tab.
There u may find update/install driver button.
click on it and another window may open.
then select browse my computer for driver software and go to the respective folder where the drivers are.
then click next and it may install the drivers.
if you have installed the toolkit then you may find a folder in the toolkit's installation folder which has drivers in it.go through it if you want :good:
Hello my friend
I cant understand the D855 while trying to connent it to my PC.
I have installed all the drivers and PC suite
When I connect it with the usb cable- its makes the desired sounds - seems that everything is ok!
even V green mark that the driver installed is shown.
But, the most important- I cant see the Drive shown when I open "my computer" on PC
Dont have access to folders and files.
I tried more then everything
Change to MTP
Debuuging mode
Change some usb cable
I already make a hard reset.
The main problem is with morelocal 2 language.
In order to make the app change a language- I must connect it to the PC.
So
what do you think the problem is ?
Is there any way to install another rom without connection to PC ?
Thank you so much
salman
Well, I have kinda the same problem. My G3 isn`t recognizied by my pc or laptop in any way beside that sound it makes if you connect an usb device to it. It doesn`t shows up in the explorer or the device manager no mater how many times I install the drivers. I also tried to change the mode from MTP to PTP and anything else that is there. I resetted it a few times but nothing. Debugging mode also didn`t change anything. And of course I can`t flash a stock firmware because the Flash Tool won`t recognize my phone. What also is strange on my phone, if I disconnect my phone from my pc, my phone is still "charging" and it doesn`t change until I reboot.
I`m open for any suggestions which could solve this problem.
My G3 is a European modell, with 32GB. Current version is V30C and it was rooted with kingroot for this "two apps on screen" thing.
