Hay,
i just transfer from SGN I to SGN II. First thing i would like to do is to root my device. When connect my phone to PC it connect as MTP.
In developer options I have choose USB debugging, but phone dont connect that mode.
I have installed Samsung Galaxy Note2 ToolKit, but that doesnt help.
I have no idea what to do...with SGN I, everything work just fine.
Can someone give me some pointers what to do?
Tnx 4 helping...
Are you using a Mac by any chance?
Oh silly me...please delete that tread...i found solution by reinstaling the usb drivers. SORRY

since you install the drivers into multiple computers and tested them all... it might be your phone.
First can you give more detail on what happens when you plug your phone in? Does your computer make any sounds or searches anything?
ALSO Try installing kies.
if that doesn't work either... looks like you need a warranty exchange
Try using an oem Samsung usb to micro usb cable. I had this problem with my Samsung Galaxy Epic a while back. Everytime I used a generic cable lying around my computer would not recognize my phone. When I used a Samsung cable it worked. Your computer should automatically identify your phone using the right cable. If not re-install them and don't forget to restart your computer before attempting to connect to your computer again. Good luck.
I've had this problem too.
Initially I had kies installed and had to launch the program to access the two 'mounted' removable drives.
I assume the drives mount, but you can't access the drives?
If that's the case, look on the phone and pull down the status bar and check to see if it sees the USB connection. Select that, and allow it to connect as USB storage.
thanks guys for all the quick response.
The problem seem to fix itself. After removing and attaching the USB cable a number of times, the PC suddenly recognized the phone.
I don't know what fixed it.
Now, I can proceed to root my phone!

you probably didn't give it enough time for the pc to actually install the needed components.. it takes a good 5-10 mins for everything to finish installing
I'm faced with the same problem. Only different is, as soon as it shows connect to usb from the notification bar if goes away. I tried the usb tool in wireless but still wont work. I tried the samsung cable as well
know it sounds dumb, but have you rebooted lately? mine wouldnt recognize the sd card when plugged into comp....rebooted....all is well
Hey guys I'm trying to root my S3 via the tool kit in the developers section and I'm having a problem. My phone doesn't want to enter USB Debugging mode. I have it turned on in the settings but every time I connect it, it just connects as a media device any help would be appreciated thanks.

I had trouble with USB Debugging as well...I thought it would show in the notification bar but it does not give any indication that it is actually working.
Either way, it would not let me connect to ADB. First thing to try is make sure you have all the right drivers installed. If you're sure of that...you can slap yourself in the forehead like I did and try a different USB port and possibly cable...I had mine plugged into my USB 3.0 port and for some reason it did not like it...I changed USB ports and it worked like a charm.
Good luck.
I recently got a 32GB Sprint G-Nex, and I want to transfer my files to my phone, but I´ve tried connecting it to the PC and nothing happens, my phone only charges. I tried installing the drivers from Sammy site, restarting the PC and it didn't work.
I also tried MTP & PTP usb mode and same results. Last, I tried checking USB debugging on/off, nothing happens either!
EDIT: Tried different USB cable, that made it work, thanks!

...you need adbd running on the host first..
install android-sdk.
read this.
Hello, have you à custom rom ? If yes, you have to disable fast charge !
And for temporary solution you can use Airdroid, an excellent app for pass through the wifi and a simple Internet browser to tranfert everything, realy easy and useful

Thanks guys, I found out that using a different USB cable made it work.

My AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II cannot be seen by my computer if I put it into Download mode?
I have installed the Samsung usb drivers several times. Even tried the latest drivers. My computer can see the phone just fine until I put it into Download Mode and connect the usb cable. Then it sees nothing!
I have a dual boot Win 7 64 bit system, and I have installed the drivers on both partitions with the same results. I've rebooted the computer and the phone many times as well, but it does not work.
Any ideas would be helpful..
Thanks,

simple MTP is working well?
What is MTP? Does that mean mount the phone?
I can connect the phone to my computer anytime and see it just fine. I see the internal storage and also the SD card.
MTP - Media Transfer Protocol
That standard Phone to PC mode you can select after plugging it in.
Do you have USB debugging selected in the developer options menu?
Yes debugging is on. And I can normally transfer files. I've copied tons of music and a few movies.
I've found that these phones just don't get along well with some computers, and their usb connectivity is very inconsistent between phones. I have 2 GS3's and a Note 2. One my home laptop, one of the GS3's works fine, while the other will rarely even be recognized unless I swap the plug to another port a few times. After it's recognized, it frequently stalls on file transfers, and it crashed trying to update to JB. The Note 2 always is recognized, but similarly, large file transfers fail.
All three of these phones work flawlessly when connected to my work computer, using the same cable. I had a Focus that behaved similarly, so I think it's a Samsung issue. I've never had this problem with other brands.
Use version 1.8 of SGS3 Easy UMS app from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1711009
Gives you good old fashioned reliable USB disk mode.
Thanks for the replies. I have a laptop that I am going to give it a try on. Fingers crossed.

That thread says it only makes the SDCard available. If I am rooting, I need the internal as well, right? So, that doesn't sound like it will help for what I am doing.

I used to have an HTC Android Incredible, so it didn't call it that. But I just looked, and yes that MTP thing is on by default when I plug it into my computers.
NOTE:
I finally got it to work by using my other laptop. YEA!
Thanks All!

By download mode I assume you are trying to flash something in ODIN, correct ? If yes, then make sure you are using the USB the phone came with. If you are not seeing a COM reading on ODIN, try a different USB port on the PC/Laptop. I know my USB 3.0 port always gives me problems with connectivity to bootloaders and such. Attached is a pic of what the phone looks like in download mode and what ODIN should show when it recognizes the phone. Hope this helps.

I finally did get it to work on a different computer. Yes, I was trying to root using the Toolkit, and when it got to ODIN it could not see the phone when it booted into download mode.
When the Toolkit did boot it into Download mode though, it did not show that small text in the upper/left corner on the phone screen. I could only get that text when I booted manually into Download mode. I'm not sure what the difference is....
So far, I have it rooted and am going to try and flash the NOTEorious Prime ROM. It says to backup my APNs first, which I did with APN Backup & Restore app. But it cannot restore them in JB 4.1. I read somewhere to tell Titanium Backup to make APN B&R a 'System App', which I did, but that still will not restore APNs. So, now I am wondering that if I installed the NOTEorious Prime ROM, will that 'let me' restore APNs? Or since it is JB it won't still..
Thanks for the reply BTW..
May be you can use the old fashioned way. ..use a pen and paper to write the apn and details somewhere and if you lose them on the rom. ..you can enter them manually

I still find MTP a less than optimal solution, coming from HTC devices which are recognized as external drives when connected.
Guys, Please remember that MTP is only applicable when the device is switched on. This is for internal "Virtual SdCard" and external Sd Card.
Download mode opens up the other storage on the device, "mmcblk0p*" for flashing reasons with Odin.
Im having problems trying to transfer files from my pc to my tab. my pc wont recognise the tab as an MTP device, but in the usb setting it is checked to connect as MTP. my cable is fine and the usb on my computer is fine, the pc does "see" the tab because it comes up as a connected camera but refuses to connect as media device. anyone know what i should do ?
In lieu of a better answer: Kies air. It sucks but it works and I am unaware of other alternatives.

Are you using a custom ROM? I read that it has been a problem in some builds but is now fixed, so if you are using a CM11 ROM make sure you update it.

Have you checked The USB debugging mode under dev settings?
