I had this problem where it wouldn't recognize my phone with USB debugging on. Make sure you are using the same port you installed the drivers on. If that doesn't work then go into control panel>system>device manager and see what it is connected as. It should be Samsung Android in USB or OTHER. Click on that and hit Update Drivers and choose from Windows Update and let it do it's thing....takes a while. Reboot and you should be good.
Huhu,
i have issue with my usb connection.
If i connect it to the laptop it say Unknow Device (error code 43). Then it only charge.
I looking up the internet for 2 days now.
Someone said Unknow device is always a driver problem.
Found some driver called samsung/sgs2 driver. But that wasnt working.
Debugging modus also not help me.
Maybe someone have an other idea?
Try this
1. Turn off phone while still plugged in to your computer
2. Press Volume Button Up and then Power button to turn it on in bootloader/or recoverymode
3. You should hear a typical usb connecting sound. (if not you can unplug and plug the usb until you hear it)
4. Unplug it to hear the usb disconnecting sound.
4. Restart your phone and then allow it to turn on as usual, allow it to load everything before.. doing #5
5. Try plugging it in and test.
i tested it but not get a sound.
bootloader say waiting for usb ;/
Uninstall any previous drivers you installed and install these. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=961956
They worked for me.
These are the drivers i already tried.
But they not work for me ;/
If you're laptop is Windows:
-install Samsung Kies....after that, plug your Glide, there should be a prompt "Installing device drivers" and/or "Searching Windows update..." Wait for that to be done and you should be able to connect.
Same thing with MAC,
I tried that befor but not work ;(
Does i have a chance to flash the phone without usb?
can i install CWM withouth odin?

There might be a cwm flashable via rom manager soon if we get some testers with stock recovery to join #utkanos on freenode irc.
and someone know how to root without usb?
is there a functionally apk?

I have the same situation with my glide. But the problem was miserable. Once i've changed USB cable, everything became OK for me (other phones work good with old cable).
Try this. Maybe it could help
Greetings!
Past couple of weeks when trying to connect my Arc to the PC it will not pick it up. It charges OK with the green light showing on the side but absolutely no indication from PC or laptop that a phone is connected.. I have 3 different cables and another laptop - having tried all the cables on both machines - still no joy.
No notification in the pull down - nada!
Reinstalled Win7 and factory reset phone half a dozen times - still nothing!
Running Win7 64bit but have never had issues with OS previously up until a few weeks ago!
Service provider was as useful as an ashtray on a motorbike!
Anyone know a solution?
Thanks
install PC companion and SE Update Service, enable usb debugg mode on phone, look at your ubs connection settings on phone too

Thanks for the reply TheHaso. Should have mentioned I have tried with Companion installed and not installed, updater installed and not installed. With debug on & off, MTP on & off, MSC on & off, storage mounted/unmounted.
Really strange to be honest!
check your 'Device Manager' on your desktop,, it will show you if any hardware connected and not working propely.
right click and try update driver if show caution on portable devices.

Also tried this for a solution buddy.. Thought it was a USB driver had slipped off or something.
Truly baffled! If it's charging fine then why would pc companion not detect it :-S

I'm sure you must have already done that but may be try updating with a different driver and see if it could solve problem. I know because it also happened to me.

Greetings, which other driver would you be referring to? I have literally tried everything but still no detection from PC in MTP or MSC.

Uninstall the driver from device manager, then restart the pc and connect to another usb port

This will work...
I have almost the same problem on my ARC.
Download MyPhoneExplorer on your PC and install it.
Download MyPhoneExplorer Client from the market and install it on your phone.
Turn on USB debugging and connect your phone with your PC.
This works on my arc and i guess it will work on you phone as well..

Many thanks for the advice. Still not working and decided the final option of giving it to T-Mobile for repair.
Cheers for the reply guys.
hey guys.
just got a SGS3 for the wife and one for myself, coming from a long time with HTC Evos.
i'm having an embarassing situation...I don't see how to transfer files from or to the phone. I plug it in via usb, drivers installed automatically, computer told me the device was ready to be used...and nothing else. nothing popped up on the phone, nothing on my computer. the phones came with no software and Samsung's website does not list any drivers or software to download...
the phones are stock for now until I get a chance to root them this week or next weekend. in the meantime, what is the way a normal user is supposed to transfer files to/from this phone?!
I'm on Windows 7 on both the laptop and the PC, both have the same situation. with both phones...both fully stock but also updated with the latest software.
thanks for the help!

Weird...
it should pop up as a media device.
Plug it in and pull down the notification bar and touch where it says "touch for other USB options"
and make sure Media Device (MTP) is checked.
if it doesn pop up then either the drivers arent installed, or their not installed correctly.
or the cable is bad, or the USB port is bad.
or the devil is messing with you

make sure you have automatic updating on in windows, at least for the drivers. this is why i hate MTP, its such a pain in the ass. i sure hope someone gets mass storage mode goin in these soon. Make sure theres no unknown devices listed in the devices manager. then grab and install the drivers from here(although you shouldnt need them for mtp to work) http://www.samsung.com/us/support/owners/product/SPH-L710MBBSPR#
downloading now...when I plug it in, the cell phone makes a little noise. but no prompts come up under my notifications.
on the PC I found it the phone shows up under Devices & Printers, but there is no way to interact with it other than to see it's drivers and that they all apparently are up to date and functioning correctly...
ahhhhhh

Does it show as a plain looking generic box or does it look like an MP3 player in devices and printers?
Generic box under an "Unspecified" category. Even after reinstalling the drivers...same situation. I can't double click to open the phone and there is no prompt on my phone.

the phone is seeing as a modem by the PC...i'm guessing because of the drivers. can one of you tell me which drivers your phone is using (under Device Manager) so I can manually select those? I have many installed Samsung drivers, just need to know which one to pick I guess.

This is crazy. I curse Samsung for this mtp ****t I swear. Under portable devices. Device name should be SPH-L710--thats what ur looking for. Will probly also be listed under modems as Samsung mobile usb modem. And in the usb devices as Samsung mobile usb composite device.another thought If you didn't already, turn on usb debugging and let it install those drivers as well. Has helped me in the past. Maybe even switchin it to download mode just so windows can see it in all modes and maybe wake the hell up.
i had usb debugging on originally, turned it off. no difference.
I went and bought a new memory card reader that supports SDXC cards, so now I can at least remove my memory card and transfer files...but still doesn't help me. I want to use that extra internal space I didn't have on my Evo 3D to add more music still to my phone...so I need to connect it to the PC somehow!

it blows my mind that its not working. what version of win 7 do you have? x86 or x64?
we have a laptop and a desktop, both running Windows 7 x64. we also have two of those Galaxy S3 phones. I'm running Go Launcher, my wife using the stock Wiz launcher. I have tried in different USB ports in both laptop and desktop, using different usb cables, and with both phones. with and without adb debugging enabled. same situation.
the phone shows up as a modem under device manager. under SAMSUNG Android Phone there is only SAMSUNG Android ADB Interface listed, nothing specific to this phone. I have tried changing the drivers around to different built-in samsung drivers and drivers from when I had the Galaxy Tab, nothing. I downloaded the latest drivers as they were linked above, nothing.
there are no pop-ups on either phone and nothing on the computer beyond the noise of something being plugged in...
w.t.f.
OK. Don't think its the issue but have run into this before with a Samsung phone or two. Reboot the computer and hold down f8 as its booting. When the advance menu comes up, hit *disable driver signature enforcement*. Like I said I don't think that's it but that has caused problems for me before (thanks microsoft) on x64 bit windows and a Samsung android phone so might as well rule it out.
O yeah, and just to make sure, you dont have kies installed right?
I do have Kies installed. someone now suggested I try using it to connect my phone. I open Kies, connect my phone, it says Connecting...and never goes anywhere. I did the connection troubleshooting thing, it took a while, said it was complete, plugged the phone back in, same situation.
jeez this is really stupid.
i disabled the driver enforcement option. nothing.
I rooted the phone now. installed that easy UMS apk and set the phone to MTP mode. now I have a Samsung MTP device on my device manager but none of the drivers work with it. windows couldn't find a driver, and i've tried 6 drivers manually and they all say they can't start the device.
anything else I can do now that i'm rooted?

kies is the devil
its actually the opposite. You DO NOT want it installed. Uninstall kies completely. Idk how I forgot about mentioning kies.nothing but problems. Nix it and I bet this headache ends. And if u take that advice, have the phone unpluged during then removal . I would also recommend reinstalling the Samsung drivers I linked to yesterday. Then plug the phone in and I would bet smooth sail in from there
will try. now the phone shows up the "connected as media device" notice when I plug it in, and the PC sees it as an MTP device...but still not letting me use it. lets hope uninstalling KIES helps.

Sounds like progress. I think uninstling kies will do the trick
well I uninstalled Kies, told it to uninstall any and all drivers for mobile phones. cleaned my registry. restarted my computer, installed the drivers fresh, plugged in the phone and it seems to work. for the first time it shows as a mtp device!
thanks a million. let's hope it works to transfer files.
Hi friends, I follow you every day and I love you!
I have a very big problem with my Note 10.1 2014 edition, that I can't solve. When I connect it to the computer (I tried 5 computers with different windows versions) it only charge the battery, but it's not recognised by kies or Odin. In Windows 8.1 it is shown as "unrecognised usb driver", in windows 7 too and it isn't seen at all in windows xp. I tried reinstalling kies, factory reset the tab, but without success. What can I do? I'm thinking about sending it in assistance.
Thank you and excuse me for my bad English!

When you plug in the tablet does it ask you (on the tablet screen) if you want to connect as a media device or charge only? Check your developer settings that you don't have debug mode set.
No, it doesnt ask anything...

Have you confirmed that you are NOT in USB debug mode?
Also make sure drivers are installed on computer. Sometimes it can take a few minutes to install drivers. When I first put mine on computer at work I had to manually install driver's.

Yes, i reinstalled drivers through kies application, but nothing
I have the same issue. I have been searching for a fix. I want to root but PC will not recognize it or pop up with anything, tablet only charges nothing else up on tablet. I have search and searched but nothing. I am also running windows 8.1.
*****
I have now tried a 2nd PC using all USB plugs. Installed Kies nothing, uninstalled and installed only driver still nothing. Clicked version 6 times on build number to get Developer options. I enabled USB debugging.
I am starting to get upset, I just want to Root for a few functions. It shouldn't be this difficult.
Anyone have any thoughts? It could be a simple thing we are over looking.
Change cable
Also try rebooting your PC .
My laptop stops finding USB devices after about 2 weeks.
Solved
I solved selling the tablet for 430$!
For those who are still having the problem, this solution worked for me on Windows 7.
I installed the first "Download" Link from here.
