I'm having usb errors from my laptop and it is being caused by my evo. I can connect it just fine and use it as a disk drive if needed but my windows 7 (64 bit) keeps saying that the usb device is not recognized. I tried disabling and enabling it. It's definitely the phone. Is there a special driver for android I need to install to my laptop? Any other suggestions if not?
Try deleting all the drivers and installing again. That should do the trick. Make sure you have adb drivers installed.
I downloaded the android sdk and sdk manager. Online it says there should be usb drivers but mine doesn't have the drivers. I installed all the packages and there is nothing for usb drivers. Can you or someone send me those drivers or give me a link to where i can get them for the evo? I keep getting usb errors.
Have you tried installing HTC Sync?
No I haven't. I looked it up and it syncs outlook etc. What will that do? I installed the drivers and adb and the computer still gives usb errors. It says the device connected has malfunctioned when it isn't plugged in. It's driving me nuts.
I'm pretty sure that HTC Sync installs USB drivers to help facilitate the various syncing things it does. At worst it won't make any difference, at best it might solve the problem. Can't really see a reason to not try it.
I tried it. Uninstalled and reinstalled and still getting usb errors. Any other suggestions? When I unplug my laptop sometimes i get the blue screen because of a problem with a bugcode usb driver.
I'm having a similar problem but my phone wont even with Vista on my laptop. I have downloaded HTC sync, and Android SDK, did a combo of USB settings in phone and still no luck. All my phone does it charge..how can i get it to disk?

Doesn't matter what version of Windows you're running, go to device mangler, and uninstall ALL of your USB drivers while online. Re-boot, and it should re-install the correct drivers from the internet. My USB drivers were dated 2006, before I did this! And that was in Windows 7!
OK, did a search in this forum for "Found New Hardware SAMSUNG Mobile MTP Device" as well as "connect to Kies USB XP" and other variations of these. I believe I have tried all suggestions that I have found, but advice would be appreciated
Firstly, I have a Dell mini 10 running xp that my E4GT connects to fine through Kies. My E4GT is running StarburstROM 1.9.5 with LoStKernel 1.0.0.8+EXP
My old HP pavilion, running the same version of XP however just says over and over "Found New Hardware SAMSUNG Mobile MTP Device" and the new hardware sound plays about every 5 seconds.
After a fresh install of the most recent version of Kies, I tried
Different USB ports
Different cables
Making sure no files have extensions longer than 15 characters. (or was it 16...?)
Recovering the drivers through Kies
Downloading and reinstalling/reapplying the USB drivers found in various links here on XDA
Uninstalling and reinstalling Kies
Going to Device Manager, right clicking on the yellow triangle of the samsung mtp device and directing the computer to install drivers from there
Still I get an endless loop of Found new hardware. Unplugging results in "a problem occurred during hardware installation...etc" Any thoughts I haven't tried yet?
Make sure usb debugging is not checked in settings/development/applications.
what? i thought usb debugging had to be checked?
and either way it shouldn't matter if the phone is in download mode, correct? maybe i am wrong. i would assume that since he got it to work on a different computer it is not a setting on the phone and a problem with the computer reading the device's drivers.
Yeah, USB debugging is off. Tried it with it on just for giggles, but no joy. I may just have to accept that it won't connect to that compy. Can't get it to connect to Kies or even connect just for file transfer. Had same trouble with my OG epic. Maybe something about the original driver install from back then....
I'll try manually removing all drivers associated with the device and see if a reinstall from scratch (again) will work. I'll also check the .net version again, but I think I already did that. Thanks all!
Hi guys i've got some issues i'm hoping someone might be able to advise me with.
I'm running a Windows7 in a VirtualBox installed on OSX and i'm unable to get it to recognize the phone.
I'm currently stuck at fastboot so when the phone is connected i see a new device called Fastboot with the flag that "needs troubleshooting".
After trying to troubleshoot and reinstall the drivers, it sais that the driver installation failed.
Does anyone know a way around this?
Thanks in advance,
-Miro
SOLVED:
As it turns out VirtualBox needs an expantion pack found here to recognize usb ports as USB 2.0
Hopefully this can help someone else using a mac and troubleshooting there phones on a Windows VM

Hi, I am needing some help. I connect my A5 to my laptop but a pop up from Win10 says that doesn't recognize the usb device. And continue saying that the last usb device connected didn't work correctly and windows didn't recognize it.
I think this happened after installing ADB and some other things like ZX3 to try to unlock my A5 and then uninstalled them, so perhaps I deleted some drivers in the process.
Can you suggest any solution for me to try?
Thanks in advance!!!!

Try connecting your device and then deleting its drivers in the device manager. After that reconnect it and it should show up as normal. Let me know if it helped
No, already tried that. Same message. Thanks!
I tried another usb port on my laptop, and recognize the phone. I don´t know we after some cel phone configurations I lost connection and recognition.
I tried again the first port and touch some items in the developers option, set the MTP protocol and now it seems working.
I stil don´t understand what I have to do to establish a good connection for every time I need it.
Regards.
Hi all. I'm back because I stll have the same problem. Can't connect A5 to laptop. The message says that there is a bad descriptor. It is the 43 error code from window 10. I tried downloading lastest Samsung drivers that comes in an .exe file and installed them. But same error.
Even trying to update the error driver to the lastest samsung usb driver, window says it already has the latest drivers and do not installed them.
Every suggestion from searching in google tried. Don't know what else can I do!!!!
Thanks for your suggestions!!!!!

Already on.
SOLUTION!!!!!
I was using an old usb type-A cable with a usb type-a to type-c adapter. I tried using the original Samsung cable and it worked!!!!
I can believe this was the problem!!!
Hope I can help another with this! Thanks to all for your support!!!
Hi, I continue finding problems to connect A5 with Laptop. After finding the original problem was the cable, I now use always the original cable.
The problem is that the phone doesn't appear in windows explorer unless I go to developer options and set the USB configuration from RNDIS (Ethernet USB) to MTP (Media Transfer Protocol). After that, a pop-up appears asking for permission for data access. I have to agree with the pop up to see the phone in the laptop.
I think I have to change permissions to granted for ever the MTP. Am I right? Where do I have to set it?
Thanks in advance!!!!
New update!! I have just chat with Samsung. The told me to dial *#0808#. That access the USBSettings options. There I changed the default to MTP + ADB.
Now I no longer need to access the development options. It still appears the pop up, asking for permission, but for now I can live with that!!!
