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
Samsung galaxy ace, gt-s5830, 2.3.6
Windows 8 Pro 32-bit
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.
I get the following error
"Unable to find software on your PC that can recognize your device. Service pack 3, Windows Media Player, version 11 or higher, or Samsung USB Driver for Windows XP, or Android file transfer for Mac OS must be installed (see www.microsoft.com or www.android.com/filetransfer)
when I connect my note 2 to my pc via usb. I also have a white note 2 that was connecting without a problem earlier today.
I've tried installing Samsung Kies, installing the Samsung USB Driver for Mobile Phones v1.5.14.0 with no luck. Let me know if you guys have any suggestions.
Stupid Samsung Drivers not working. Tried everything!
i just started having this issue out of nowhere as well. WTF? I've tried over and over to install the drivers and nothing is working. This is driving me crazy and I can't seem to fix it. My wife's S3 will no longer connect as well.
HELP!

thanks yahyoh. i tried the heimdall on my mac from the tutorial on this site, but when i tried the commands for the terminal server i think it was, the computer didn't recognize my device. even copy and pasting the next 4 lines as said in the tutorial didn't work. i can't find anyone who will loan me a pc for a long enough period and majority of my friends have mac or iphones so they can't help me. i ran across the root android pro on a link from this forum and was wondering if anyone tried it or had any other suggestions on how to root
I want too
well, apparently this can't be used on a mac anyway. any other hints on how i can root using a macbook?

Hi Guys,
Bought a used but like new Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 8.0 wi-fi (SM-T310) for my boy.
It's installed with latest stock firmware (T310XXUBNH3) and I need some guidance to root it.
I do not to mess around with the kid’s tablet, I just want to root it, so to be able to uninstall all system apps and do other simple stuff.
I have searched Google and what I found, is that root has to be through ODIN.
I have downloaded the files (ODIN and Root) and when I put the tablet in download mode Odin does not recognize it.
I'm using Windows 8.1 Pro and I noticed that in Device Manager, it’s showing as unknown device. When I try to update the driver only gives me the option to install it as a samsung modem usb, but even after that, keeps showing as unknown.
I have Kies installed and the drivers, supposedly installed, since with the tablet connected, the computer recognizes it immediately.
My problem is then the Download Mode, I’m positive because its missing the correct drivers.
I have also tried to switch cables, very dumb I know, but I had to try.
So my questions are:
1. where can I find the correct drivers for Download Mode?
2. Is there any other and simple way of rooting this baby?
Thanks guys

Download THIS.
Extract and run the UniversalADBDrivers file. That will install ADB drivers. Ensure that you have enabled USB debugging under the Developer Options in settings on the tablet. If you don't see the Developer Options, tap the "build number" 10-12 times to enable it.
If it still doesn't work, you will need to ffnd a Windows 7 or XP computer.
fantastic!
thats worked like a gem.
thanks a lot m8
