Hi I have that stuffs what in the title, and have connection problems also
I have 64 bit Win8 Pro so I have media stuffs and all what Kies need. I installed Kies, restarted the machine and try to connect phone. Connected the USB Kies still write to me Connect some device.... In windows device manager have an Unrecognized Android Phone, so I think driver sucks. Try to connection problem wizard in Kies, doesn't help. If I run as an admin don't help to me....
Have some way to manually install that driver in win device manager?
Under win7 64 problem few weeks ago I can use my phone with Kies, but with win8 I can't.
I hope we can figure something out guys!
loool samsung support want to make me do it factory reset I said lol, this device work under win7 with Kies but nothing happened since yesterday, I found a way to manually instal driver, but just write me connecting for a half hour, and I so bored and disconnect the phone. Please anyone help me out!
Same problem
Im having the same problem. My pc doesnt recognize the phone(with kies installed and the latest updates from microsoft and samsung)(with drivers ofc). I have contacted with samsung support center and they say that so far they cant guarantee that kies will work fine for all the devices in windows 8. I ve never had windows 7 so i dont know about a problem there. I ve upgraded from Windows XP(which Kies was working exellent) to Windows 8 and now im facing these problems. Hope to fix soon

Win7 drivers "SHOULD" work with Win8... but anyways, did you try uninstalling ALL drivers of your phone and removing cached drivers from your system? Then do a fresh install of drivers try offline first. It doesn't work, remove everything and try if windows itself can find the driver for you. But usuallly the phone itself would make the PC install the drivers the phone needs.

Galaxy Ace 2 is I8160 not S7500
Good Evening folks,
I'm posting here after spending the better part of 2 days trying to figure out why this doesn't work.
So, i have the following:
model: GT-N7100
Version: 4.1.1
Build: JRo03C - ALJ1
I run a PC with windows 7 and also have a laptop with windows 8.
Now, initially i only wanted to root my device to install an addblocker on it and get rid of some bloatware. so i went and got samsung note2 toolkit here on XDA. (also tried others)
but no matter how i tried the pc (nor laptop) would see the note 2. it would plug in, it would charge... but windows ignored it otherwise.
i have tried al 8 of my USB ports on the desktop, and all 3 on the laptop. none of them work
3 different USB cables.
re-booted more then times then i can count.
i have manually installed the samsung drivers.
i have tried installing the windows MTP Porting kit
all to no avail.
So before i can even START to root... i need it to to play nice with my machines... anyone have ANY suggestions on what the hell is going on here.
If your main priority is to root then use exynos abuse

hi,
Thanks for that! found the APK file and got it on the phone through email and it's rooted, so my mission is accomplished...
but my problem still persists:
why oh why wont windows just play nice with the phone?
Did you install Kies on your PC? That program needs to be open when you connect your phone and then it will install the needed drivers.

Or install the drivers using the Note Toolkit http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1923956
Does it show as an unknown device in windows under device manager?
I'm having the same issue but I have a suspicion that its the USB port on the phone itself as my gnex can use the same cable/USB port and show up as mtp.

my windows is same
My Note 2 N7100 is 'seen' by my windows 8 machine, but it doesnt seem to copy/ paste anything. Pops up with an error. The same happens on a Mac Lion machine. Installed the Android File Transfer app, but the moment I connect my phone, it pops up a message saying please restart your device so that it can be detected. I am tired of transferring individual files over AirDroid Any help?

What's the error message?
Happened to me before, un install kies on your pc reboot, download from Samsung website and install again, should work
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
first of all I forgot to mention that this should've been posted in Q&A section
for the problem try the following steps. after each one of them try connecting again. keep net disconnected while you follow the steps.
if it starts working then stop other wise continue.
1)use a diff comp, but you already did that , use a different cable, you didn't mention it
2)try uninstalling drivers via programs and features.
3)try installing drivers - preferably via mskip's toolkit
if you have windows 7, then directly install it
if you have windows 8, then first disable driver signature enforcement via this guide's last question.
4)try re installing windows. if you don't wanna do that then
open device manager
in view -> show hidden devices
delete each one that says samsung, note ii or note 2, android, google, adb, gt-n7100, n7100
this will ensure that you truly remove drivers
follow step 3) after this.
Hope I helped
All the usual and helpful ideas have been listed and you should definitely work thru those to make sure you are not missing something obvious but critical. I also use Win8 (64) and all was well with my Note2 showing up as an MTP device and wll working then one day, seemingly spontaneously, it suddenly didnt! When I would plug my Note2 in, Windows would give me a USB error telling me it could nto recognise the device! To cut a long story short, I tried my wife's S2 and IT appered fine as an MTP device happily enough, so that ruled out the cable, the port and the computer/OS.
I then tried my Note2 on my laptop, and once again it came up as USB error, so the problem was following the DEVICE around....
After a lot of googling, I tried on thing that fixed it instantly:
On the phone, go into Settings, Security and delete all the "Device Administrators" which in my case was just my Email app. That did delete my email account from my phone (contacts, email etc) but didnt matter as phone is just a dumb client to the mail server so no loss of any real data.
Once removed, I then plugged phone in and BOOM! MTP device happily appeared! I then went back in and just re-added my email account and re-activated Device Administrator when asked. Working ever since.
Not saying this is your problem, but it was an eye opener to me that the Device Administrator could 'lock out' the USB connection of the device....
Hope this helps.

I would also recommend checking your Windows Update log - especially if you have it set to automatic updates. After I installed the drivers off of the Samsung website, Windows Update tried to "Update" my drivers to an older version (I do manual Windows Updates). The first time it asked, I let it, and my phone couldn't connect anymore. Once I stopped that silliness I stopped having problems.
same problem usb not conecting with my pc windows7
all this is my same problem which I facing help me about how to slove this matter

I was having the same problem, but I was using a USB cord that I had from my old phone. Switched to the white one that came with my Note 2 and it started working.
Hi,
I have a new PC with Win 8.1 Pro x64. I also have a Samsung Galaxy S4 mini and have installed the latest (I would suppose) Samsung drivers for Mobile Phones ver 1.5.45.0
Using it on my other PC with Win 7 Pro x64 anytime I plug the USB cable into the PC I see in Explorer the device and both partitions/memory of the phone being Card and Phone.
Using it on my new PC with Win 8.1 in Explorer I do not see anything anymore. How do I access phone data like on Win 7 PC?
I do not know if this can help but this is what I have in devices resources panel:
Under "Samsung Android Phone" I have Samsung Android ADB Interface
Under "Portable Devices" I have Samsung Mobile MTP Decice with a Alert yellow mark; but I have it for all other Card Reader devices.
I also find it strange, if I am correctly recall, that before installing Samsung USB Drivers I did not have any Yellow Alert mark on other USB card reader devices. Is there any correlation between installed Samsung Drivers or not?
Lastly, is there a direct and official URB for obtaining the most updated Samsung USB Drivers for Mobile phone or not? If so, which one is it so I can bookmark it?
Please advise.....
NOTE: I know this has no influence on device behavior on Windows but I have CyanogenMod 11 running on this phone. Just wanted to let you know.
I apologize if this isn't the proper forum.
I had a Samsung Galaxy S3 (The non LTE version) with T-Mobile. I have used the KIES 3 software to backup my phone.
I got a Samsung Galaxy S4 (the M919 model) with T-Mobile.
First, I connected the phone to my Win7 64-bit Home Edition pc with the same Galaxy S3 USB cable. It charges, and I hear the "boo-beep" and Windows 7 says it's installing device software and then comes back and says "unknown device" installation failed. In Device Mangler, it shows up under USB controllers, for some reason as "unknown device".
Okay, so I reinstalled the Samsung USB drivers.
No go
I used the actual S4 cable that came with the phone.
No go.
I have done the debug USB mode. No go.
I have verified that the MTP protocol is used (vs. Camera) and that it's set to MTP+ADB
I've switched back and forth to camera vs. MTP
Windows seems to detect the USB signal in that it knows when it's plugged in and when it's not, but it seems to IMMEDIATELY (and I mean very very fast, like under 1 second) "find" it always as a USB controller -> Unknown Device
So, I've tried my laptop. windows 7 64-bit. Same thing.
I had a spare pc around, so I even reformatted the drive and put a fresh copy of windows 7 on it. Same thing.
I've manually installed the Samsung drivers (without KIES). Still no go.
So I guess my questions:
1) Is there some other method to verify USB port is working properly? (like can you connect it to something else and have it work)? I'm assuming it's good since not only does it charge, but it at least is attempted to connect with Windows 7
2) I've got 2 more cables ordered --official Samsung ones--just in case
3) Can you root and unroot a phone without USB? It seems they all require USB drivers, and ODIN to work. I ended up having to manually backup the S3 via GCloud or whatever to get my stuff transferred over.
Oh, I also have an SD card in the phone.
Yes, I tried unmount it, and even removing it, rebooting, etc. Still no go.
I am trying to find an XP machine to see if that works any better.
thank you.
I have a Samsung Note 3 through Sprint.. Computer has stopped recognizing it, even tried on another computer. Only reason I need it to recognize it, is so i can pull off the pics and reset to stock completely. ..
Tried on Windows 7 pro and Windows 8.
Tried installing Samsung USB drivers,
-computer can see Note 2 and all new phones, just not Note 3.
Android 4.4.4
Where should I start to read/search.. All the google searches kept telling me to just install USB drivers, which I have done..
Thanks in advance!
