[Q] PC won't detect Arc

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.

try doing a hard reset, clear all data/cache
go to settings>privacy>clear all data
or if you know how to access recovery mode do a hard reset from there

Do you have KIES installed
?

kies is not necessary just install USB driver

also try enabling USB debugging

basics:
hold down the notification bar and press " connect to usb"
even without installing the drivers you can still connect to your phone
but i advise you to install them

try READING before POSTING

SolutiON IS herE
try to reset ur sgy and then retry again or if it shows usb connected in notification bar open it and select connect usb storage
hope it works:cyclops::victory:

This has happened to me before.
There must be a problem with the installed drivers.
Uninstall drivers
Uninstall kies
Reboot
Clean pc with any cleaner
Now connect to Internet and then connect your device.
Drivers will be downloaded. Just wait.
Worth a try right

I Think it is not a problems in the drivers because as i know if it is a problem regarding the drivers the PC must pop-up a notification saying unrecognized device, but in my situation there is nothing happened when i plug my phone to my PC the only thing that happened is that my Phone is charging.. my main purpose why i've wanted to connect my HTC to my PC is that i wanted to use the adb to downgrade and root my phone and also after that to change my rom.., do you have any suggestion to downgrade and root my HTC which i am not going to connect it to a PC ?.
Thanks in advanced men..

not a safe way to do it but if you feel like it you can try visionary. if the wrong drivers were installed then it may not pop up with anything, you can use certain applications to test if any drivers pop up (just google search)
otherwise try and clean out the usb port

I think u should try to change usb cable... might be bad usb...

Maybe you uninstalled the drivers? Have you checked it in windows hardware proporties?

actually i've installed it's drivers in my pc, and also my data cable is new.. i've tried it on lot of pc but still it can't be detected..

try to reinstall / update drivers from off site

i know silly question, but .. Did you try changing connection type on your phone ??

Just to confirm try using same cable & phone on some other PC, if it works there there's probably some crazy windows error on ur laptop which is next to impossible to fix, only solution is to format ur PC & install fresh windows. If you phone + cable does not work on other PC there probably something wrong with either, try using same cable on different phone & vice versa.
hope this helps

Check whether you've firs installed Samsung USB Drivers in computer. Install KIES and it'll automatically install the drivers.
Also check the USB Debugging mode is not checked in your phone. It'll be there in Developer Options

adb non detect.
Yeah. I am having similar problem. Pc wont detect my phone even when usb debugging is on or off. Installed all necessary drivers and still wont detect. In fact my note 8.0 having the same problem. It was ok a few days back. Is it the phone or pc that is causing the problem? Note 2 was derooted and 8.0 original fw. Can anyone help?

yes i have the same issue as well
i have no idea why

Try to do everything from the begining. Uninstall all previous drivers that you have installed. Restart your computer. You could download and install Samsung drivers pack only if you don't use Kies (search on Google for the latest pack) or download and install latest Samsung Kies suite and install drivers that come with it. After that connect your phone to the PC using your USB cable. When it starts to search for drivers open that notification and you will see something like >> Skip obtaining drivers from internet<< Then it will automaticaly install drivers from PC (the one that you have installated previously) or it will prompt you to point to the folder where drivers were instalated. I can't remember exactly how it goes but this is the solution that worked for me...And you must click on skip for every single item (on driver list) or it will not be instalated properly...

No, it's useless to reinstall driver, just buy a new usb sync/charge cable, that works for me.

A problem that all rootkits don't detect my phone!

HI:
I have my friend phone and it's Xperia S , i just want to root it but the problem is all rootkits can't detect my phone , just still on "wait for device".
Flashtool can detect it fine and the Sony PC Companion can.
I am trying to root using DooMLoRD Toolkit v18.

1) Are the Drivers installed?
a.Is USB debugging on?
2) Turn on Unknown Sources because it doesn't hurt to
3) Check the Cable
4) Try another computer

1) I installed it from flashtool , is there another drivers i have to install?
2) It's already on.
3) Cable work fine because Flashtool detect the phone.
4) I did on my brother PC with Windows 8 and i have 8.1.

Guys please i need a fast help , i have to get my friend phone back soon.

I just noticed something , that when i connect my phone Flashtool say "device connected with USB Debigging off" but i tried to turn it on and off 5 times but still the same world!
I think there is some drivers problem.

I just had knew the problem , it's the drivers!
I just followed a method about how to install drivers on windows 8.1 and worked fine , but i think that there is still problem with drivers.
