[Q] Computer won't recognize my SGS2; how do I return to stock?

I can't get USB mounting to work on my linux PC, windows PC, or work windows laptop.
The computer completely fails to recognize the phone, even when I manually tell it to connect as usb storage device.
I've tried three different USB cables.
ODIN mode isn't recognized either, no USB devices are detected and Odin does not display an ID for the phone.
So WTF do I do know? I believe I need to return to stock firmware but I don't know how without using Odin.

You need to download the drivers for your computer in order for it to read your device. I believe its somewhere here in the forums if not Google it. I would post a link but I'm not on my computer

You can download the drivers from the how to root thread in the dev section.

Are you using the original samsung cable? Mine refuses to be recognized by my pc's if it's not the original cable, works fine with the original but the system never picks it up with any others.

Did you try installing Kies SW from the Samsung site? Installing this SW will also install all of the appropriate drivers on your PC.

Galaxy S 3 (III / I747) Charging but no drivers are installing

Evening amazing people of XDA-Developers!!!!!
My issue is that my Galaxy S 3 (III / I747) charges when plugged in via usb but no drivers are installing. I am unable to see my phone via MTP or Odin (to flash roms or root), my phone does not show me any way of changing the MTP or the other option when plugged in via the phone itself.
It is 2 days old from Costco. I have installed the drivers via "Samsung GS3 QCom ToolKit" and "Kies" with no success.
Thanks and hope I can get this figured out.

What's your operating system? I'm On Windows 8 64 bit and I had to manually install the drivers (clicking on the driver installer) you might also want to try install as administrator and teen off UAC on your PC

I had a similar issue where it was installing as a modem instead of a phone. I manually installed the phone drivers after uninstalling everything
and rebooted, then it started working correctly.

You're never prevented flashing by not using a computer unless you stick with Odin only, even then you have Mobile Odin. Read above and see if it works. Neither of you stated the OS used and causing the problem.

I had this problem when i tried to update S3 from ics to jellybean with NEW install of kies. Had to go to windows settings and untick auto update( i set it to ask me every time) and reinstall kies. Windows auto update seemed to be updating what kies had installed. After this my drivers installed as soon as I plugged in my S3 although windows update does now show 2 samsung update available, I just don't allow the updates.
Hope this helps

I had the same issue, after getting in contact with samsung, all i had to do was turn off the phone, remove the battery, wait 60 seconds and re install battery. after that worked perfectly.

Install Samsung Kies. That will fix the driver issues and it should appear in ODIN after that. That's how it worked for me.

Running Windows 7 Ultimate x64... I have done the following to hopefully alleviate the issue I am having but with no success:
System restored...
Installed KIES...
Used the toolkit...
The only thing that works is charging... even running in Odin, the computer does not recognize the phone... where are the drivers so I can manually install them?

PC Not Recognizing Note 2 via USB

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the samsung drivers at least 4 times, rebooted phone and pc multiple times, tried 3 different PCs and still nothing.
Nothing(other than charging) pops up on the PC's or the phone when I plug it in. I have tried checking USB debugging several times.
Any ideas?

This just started happening to me today as well haha
Can't figure out why either

Did you get the current drivers from Samsung's site?
How about flashing any recent changes on the phones?
Does it indicate anything on the phone?
Any info - no matter how trivial it may seem - would help. Thanks!

I just got it to work by using the OEM usb cable that came with the NOTE 2.
Previously, I had tried 2 different htc cables, an LG cable and a random generic one. Really odd that it was the cable.

It was this way with the E4GT as well. Explanation I was given at the time was that the pin connections are longer on Samsung than most. That's why most cables except Samsung and BB cables fail on data but fine on power.

I've used the same cable the entire time. It's still not recognizing it.

Yeah it's the one that came with the phone. I tried another cable and still doesn't work. I don't know what changed with my phone. I've done nothing notable to it.

Please post all questions in Q&A
Thread moved
Thanks

Right click the usb icon in the task bar and find your phone in the devices. Then trouble shoot it. I have to do this just about every single time I want to connect and transfer something.

3) Choose "Qualcomm USB Setting"
4) Choose "MTP + ADB"
5) Press OK button

similar issue
hey guys am new here so sorry for my first post being a problem
ok so im kinda new to the android scene after many years of apple products i can safely say i wont be returning lol very impressed and gutted i didnt switch to android a long time ago...
anyway the problem i have is that after doing a lot of reading and browsing this forum i installed a few different kernels and then started with roms, and now discovered neither Bluetooth or usb works Ive tried many different things including restoring back to stock rom and kernel rebooting several times both PC and phone, ive tried a few other things that seemed to fix for others i installed the drivers at least 9 times now and kies over and over, also tried the galaxy note tool kit but it just wont see the phone it just charges it ive also tried a different cable and the same problem is there... the only option ive not tried is to completely remove root and start again, but the problem i have is that if that doesn't fix it is that i wont be able to root again through odin,
Ive enabled usb debugging etc also nothing im really lost with this now as want to transfer files that's when i realized Bluetooth wont switch on either
i upgraded to 4.1.2 with the omega rom also and still the same now am back to 4.1.1 through a saved restore
so pls any advice or pointers would be amazing

Error is on the phone or PC? And what cable are you using? It should be the stock white cable - even the S2 cable doesn't work for me.

This is correct. I rooted a Note II last night using the white cable. The easiest way is to enable us debugging on the phone and issue the command from your:
adb reboot download
Once it is in download mode you can push your md5 with Odin

Indeed. I did try using a Nexus 7 usb cable and wouldn't recognize my phone but only to charge it not as a usb device. I then plugged another cable that it came with a spare S3 that I have and that worked for me.

i think it shoud be *#7284#

usb/mtp/ptp
I have CM12.1 on SPH-L900, when I go to settings>storage and click USB computer connection, it says USB is disconnected, I don't get the MTP/PTP menu.
I've tried in debug mode, I've tried *#7284#, and many others but none bring up a phone util screen. any help would be, helpful. :laugh:
I used CWM to install.
edit: so I grabbed every cable I had and one worked, happened to be for a kodiak camera.

[Q] Note 2 usb problem

Hi all,
heres my first post on xda and I just wanna to explain my problem.
I am in possession of a GT-N7105, just bought the USB connection worked perfectly but when I tried to install the CF-ROOT and CWM RECOVERY me no more, the PC recognized the phone.
I state that I had installed windows 8.
First of all I installed Samsung KIES and did not recognize him. I uninstalled Kies and installed the drivers using the NOTE 2 TOOLKIT. Even so, nothing to do. The computer can not find the driver for QUALCOMM CDMA TECHNOLOGIES MSM.
I thought it was an error of Windows 8, maybe a bug, so I formatted the system by installing Windows 7 Professional, downloaded NOTE 2 TOOLKIT and installed the drivers without having the phone connected to the PC. When the TOOLKIT required me to connect to the pc NOTE2, I did. But even here, unfortunately, can not find drivers for QUALCOMM CDMA TECHNOLOGIES MSM.
P.S. The phone in DOWNLOAD MODE is recognized by ODIN and I got it back to the SERVICE FIRMWARE but even so the problem is not resolved.
I also tried to change the usb port but nothing.
I tried to install other versions of firmware via odin but nothing. I do not know what to do. Google can not give me a solution and not XDA.
So I decided to write here publicly to expose my problem. I hope someone of you can help me solve this problem that prevents me from installing the CM10.1!
In advance thank you all.

Try and enable the USB debugging mode and check once .

I have the same pb My N7105 with Qualcomm CDMA...
hello
i have the same pb , Win 7 64 dont find qualcomm cdma technologies msm driver
where find it for WIN 7 X64?
thx by advance.

I have windows 8 as well and couldn't get my computer to recognize it no matter how much I updated the drivers and such. But I ended up going into control panel and clicking on devices and hardware or whatever it's called. Go to the note 2 icon (not sure exactly what it will be called but something like Samsung device), right click and hot troubleshoot. This actually solved the problem for me and hopefully helps you.

[Q] SPH-L520 not responding in CDMA

I am trying to connect my Sprint L520 to CDMA workshop and seem to be getting no go on it. It is on Android 4.2.2 running stock unrooted ROM. The phone will show up in CDMA as the Samsung Mobile USB Serial Port but when I hit connect it connects but when I put the SPC which is not 6 zeroes (got it from MSL UTILITY) It says phone does not respond. any ideas? I am assuming there is somewhere another Hidden menu that is still disabled which I will need to toggle before I can successfully connect to CDMA. I got it on DM+Modem+ADB plus USB Debugging. Any ideas will be greatly appreciated!

Not entirely sure or not of what you're trying to do but I'll say this. Try a different usb port. Make sure there's only one instance of that work shop going. Restart the device and pc. Follow another guide or find out if knox is preventing you.
