This is a comprehensive guide for troubleshooting the 'MTP Driver Installation Failed' problem on Windows 7
specifically for the GT-I9300, but also applies to other phones (except the part about Samsung and Kies).
This guide combines all the tips and tricks found around the web that have had results in resolving this issue.
If at any point you're fed up with the problem, keep in mind that there are free apps like USB Mass Storage Enabler
that enable UMS mode on your phone instead of MTP mode.
First of all try removing the battery for 3 minutes and restarting the phone and trying then (if you haven't already).
Ok lets start.
For troubleshooting purposes,
1. Remove your Sim and Memory Card.
2. Always use the USB ports at the BACK panel of the PC
rather than the front panel and the original USB cable provided by your manufacturer.
3. Download and install the latest version of Samsung Kies
and make sure to check the 'install USB driver' at the end.
Try the following to pinpoint the source of the issue:
1. Ensure that you have USB Debugging switched off. If it is on,
switch it off, reboot your phone and try to reconnect.
2. Try a different USB port at the back panel of your PC.
3. Try a different USB cable.
4. Uninstall Kies and USB Drivers. Open up USBDeview
(in the SGS Toolkit or from the web) and uninstall all drivers that say
'Samsung' or 'GT-I9300'.
Reboot and reinstall Kies and USB Drivers and try to reconnect.
You can find USB Deview here:
http://www.majorgeeks.com/files/details/usbdeview.html
Ok so none of this worked for you. Lets try finding the source of the problem i.e. either your phone or windows.
- Make a nandroid backup of your current apps/settings. Copy this backup,
megawipe and your Nandroid backup of your STOCK ROM to an external SD card.
Boot into recovery and flash megawipe. DO NOT reboot the phone. Restore the stock
ROM from your external SD Card. Do a data wipe/factory reset, wipe cache and wipe dalvik cache. Reboot and plug in the phone to see if it works.
Megawipe can be found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1832326
If it works, then it's a problem with your ROM or its settings.
If it doesn't, it's most likely a Windows issue as we've excluded everything else that it could be.
Its my phone!
- Boot into CWM and flash megawipe. Flash your preferred ROM/gapps from scratch as per the developer's
instructions. DO NOT flash backups. As soon as you're past the welcome settings pages, connect the
USB cable and see if it works.
If it doesn't then your ROM has a problem with MTP mode and you need to contact your ROM developer about it.
If it does, then it's a problem with your settings. Use the stock nandroid from here on:
Its my settings!
1. Make sure that you have USB Debugging Disabled.
2. If you use apps like Gemini App Manager or System Tuner that disable apps on certain events,
make sure you didn't disable anything related to USB connectivity.
3. Try to restore system apps like media storage or anything else that might have been
necessary for your phone to work correctly.
3. Start from scratch. Install programs and settings one by one and figure out when
it no longer connects to your pc to find the culprit.
It's Windows!
1. Download and extract the latest MTP Driver from here:
http://drivers.softpedia.com/dyn-search.php?search_term=SAMSUNG+Mobile+MTP+Device+Driver&x=0&y=0
With your phone connected, go to Control Panel>Device Manager>Portable Devices
Double click the MTP Driver and go to the Driver tab. Click 'Update Driver'. Now click
'Browse my computer for driver software'>Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer>Have Disk
and browse to the folder you extracted the drivers to. Hit OK>Next.
See if it installs
2. Open Start>Run>Regedit and browse to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\
Browse to these two folders and delete the registry keys called 'UpperFilters' and 'LowerFilters':
{36FC9E60-C465-11CF-8056-444553540000}
{EEC5AD98-8080-425F-922A-DABF3DE3F69A}
Reboot your system and try to reconnect.
If the keys don't exist, create them and delete them:
-Right click>New>MultiStringValue>UpperFilters
-Double click the key and enter any random value
-Connect your phone now and let the install fail
-Disconnect the phone and delete the key you created
-Reconnect the phone
2. Uninstall Kies and drivers with USBDeview. Install the MTP Driver from here, reboot and try to reconnect:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=19153
3. Install the latest Windows Media Player from Microsoft. If you don't like it, you can always remove it when you're done. Reboot after install and connect your phone to see if it worked.
4. Try an OLDER version of the Samsung USB drivers from below. Uninstall all the current drivers with usbdeview and then install these. If you know of a date when your usb connected just fine, use a driver closer to that date:
http://drivers.softpedia.com/dyn-search.php?search_term=Samsung+USB+Driver+for+Mobile+Phones&x=0&y=0
5. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE NO VIRUSES OR TROJANS ON YOUR SYSTEM AS THIS CAN
COMPROMISE SECURITY!
Open Start>Run>cmd and type this into the command prompt:
net localgroup Administrators "local service" /add
Reboot, and reconnect your device and see if it works.
5. Do a clean install of windows, install the motherboard and video card drivers, then install Kies and USB Drivers. See if the phone connects.
If not, update using Windows update and try again. Don't install any other programs
until this step is complete.
Thats the end of the guide. If you've tried all of these steps and failed, then it's a good idea
to just give up and use one of the many alternatives.
Use UMS Enabler or simply connect your sd card to your pc directly rather than from the phone.
You can even do wireless transfers using ES-File Explorer or Samba filesharing.
Hope this helps!
None of those worked to me. i tried using drivecleanup, reinstalling wmp, installing kies, debug mode, removing upperfilters but everytime went back to the same error. What worked to me was:
- download file from that post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=37042201&postcount=28;
- extract files from that package to some folder (;
- delete all wpdmtp* from \windows\system32;
- plug phone (it will give an error installing drivers);
- go to control panel -> system -> device manager;
- right click on mtp and poitn to the folder of extracted files;
after that, windows was able to install mtp properly.
Thanks to user Israelleite for the download.

Does anyone know if the Galaxy S is supposed to transfer drivers when attached to a machine via usb? I've tried installing samsung usb drivers/multiple kies versions on both xp and windows 7 x86 machines however I've not once got the device installed. The first machine I tried it on did register the device Samsung_android had been attached however after factory resting it now appears as 'unkown. If it does install drivers, would it be possible to retrieve them from the galaxy s source? Would flashing the phone with a custom rom include the device drivers?
I would really appreciate any suggestions, I love the device but I've been trying to resolve this issue since I bought the phone
By default it uses Kies when you connect it via USB, go into options - About Phone - USB Settings and choose "ask me what to do" then you can choose MTP to mount it as a USB drive, choose it as a modem, etc. You need to go into the slide-down notifications menu and click on MTP mode then. For Mac's you need to enable USB debugging as well.
Thanks for your reply however I've tried connecting using each of the connection options. I am given the option to mount the internal SD card and lists 'MTP conneced' but the machine it's connected to still lists 'unkown device' within dev manager. I've also tried enabling USB debugging but even adb doesn't list the galaxy s.
Regardless of the device setting windows still displays 'device not recognized'. I've looked at the drivers within samsung\usb_driver but the folders are listed by development alias so its hard to determine which driver is for the i9000 I read on a forum that someone had this problem and Samsung replaced the drivers on the galaxy, I'm not sure if that's true or it was some other fix but if the galaxy does provide the machine with drivers maybe I can extract them and install directly to the machine
I don't have access to the NAND as I have not rooted it, but if you want I can do a directory listing of the internal SD and you can see what you are missing. I can then copy the files for you.

I like this community already, thanks mate but you don't have to go to the trouble. I returned the device to vodafone for a replacement. The replacement connected first time and I can now access the device without any problems
No doubt others will have this issues so...
Galaxy S "unknown Device" - If you have tried
Installing Samsung USB drivers for your operating system (There are both x86(32bit) and x64(64bit) versions of these drivers for windows.
Setting the Galaxy S to MTP on usb connect (Settings>About Phone>USB settings
Resetting your Galaxy S to factory settings (Settings>Privacy>Factory Reset)
Enabling usb debugging (Settings>Application>Development)
Formatting your internal SD card (Settings>SD Card..) Unmount before and re mount after formatting
Installing various versions of keis bloatware
and your Galaxy S is still listed as "unknown device" within windows device manager. Try taking it back to the store and asking for a replacement, this was the only step which worked for me and it worked first time Remember to explain all the steps you've taken and if you have to, ask for a demonstration of the device successfully connecting before you accept that there isn't an issue.
No worries, glad you are sorted now.
Again and again, many user are asking how to get access
to the SD card under android 2.3.1 Gingerbread or CM 7.0.
So I prepared, the solutions that I found here and have tested
under Windows XP x32 and Windows Vista x32.
Both methods are working for me on these systems!
Method 1:
1. Right click on My Computer, go to Properties.
2. Go to Device Manager
3. Find your My HTC (should be the second one Android USB Device), right click on it and select Update Driver Software
4. Then select Browse My Computer for Software
5. Then choose Let Me Pick which driver to install on the bottom.
6. Then choose USB Mass Storage Device
After this unplugging the phone. I have change the MTP to ADB Testing Interface or Android ADB Interface and things seem to be mounting everytime.
Rebooted phone and PC, both worked again so I think this may be a working solution.
Now go to MTP
1. Right click on My Computer, go to Properties.
2. Go to Device Manager
3. Find your MTP (should be under Unknown Devices), right click on it and select Update Driver Software
4. Then select Browse My Computer for Software
5. Then choose Let Me Pick which driver to install on the bottom.
6. Then choose Google Inc. and the Driver is ADB Testing Interface
or Android ADB Interface
Method 2:
Download USBDreview and delete all android drivers (including adb)
Download PDAnet and install (it will install all necessary android drivers)
Job done.
Any way to sort this in Win 7 x64?
Drive shows up but says INSERT DISC :s
New to this Android stuff and and getting nowhere fast!
TIA
If the cm kernel is being built correctly it shouldn't be showing as an mtp device at all, this only happens with stock kernels, a good example is the pershoot oc kernel I built and posted as opposed to flippy's, I think he is just using the msm7x30 source and either not using the correct drivers, or it is not being configured correctly.
I haven't seen a proper cm kernel that behaves that way.
Here's how to fix the USB problem in two easy steps:
1) Install Linux.
2) Learn bash.

Hi, So I have the sg3 T999V with Wind and I updated to jelly bean via kies today.
So I did lose root and cmw
but I used the root66 way of rooting it after the upgrade and it worked.
However, after the upgrade I encounter the MTP device not working problem.
I first unchecked usb debugging mode and it worked for a brief moment but then proceeded to not being recognized by my computer again
I have windows 7 32bit
So this is what I tried:
1) regedit described on this forum - did not work, and there was no upperfilters under EEC5AD98-8080-425f-922A-DABF3DE3F69A
2) reinstall kies,driver under my computer-manager, and kies troubleshooting - always returned with MTP not installed correctly
3) factory reset one where I signed into google account right away when prompt and another left it till later, the instance where i signed in later worked until i restored system-app data with titanium backup
4) Tried all the ports on my laptop- non of which worked
5) made sure I used the usb cable that came with the phone
So I am out of ideas and having tried most of the methods suggested on the forum I don't have a next step
the reset worked well till I backed up with titanium so perhaps it is a system setting that is preventing the mtp?
Please help I use my sg3 as a music player for my long commutes and losing the MTP function would be major. :crying:

I have this issue on and off with my S3. It tells me my Device ID is missing. What I do is the following:
1. Download the S3 Toolkit software http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1746682 and extract
2. Go to the directory you put the toolkit in and look for the drivers folder. There are two (maybe 3) files there. The USB drivers, and an application. Right click on the application, and run as administrator.
3. Make sure phone is NOT plugged in
4. Look for all Samsung related files. You may have USB component, USB modem, CAC Driver, MTP Driver, ADB driver, And a T999 Driver. highlight and click the recycle bin next to teh X on the menu bar.
5. Plug phone in, and let it recognize the components again.
6. After it is complete, it may work, or you may have to plug it in one more time for it to recognize T999 or MTP again.
7. If it doesn't work, start again, sometimes it takes a few times.
I do notice that with the Universal Naked drivers I don't have any issues, but then I can't connect to Kies. Also curious to see if your Device ID is also missing, this is the first column in the application you are running. Mine are, which I think is part of the problem, but not sure why they vanished, or how to get them back.
I don't have a solution for your windoze problem
but if I understand correctly, you need to transfer files from pc to phone
you have wifi?
both pc and phone using same wifi?
on pc.. open sharing to LAN
get ES File Explorer (or similar) from the play store
in ES, switch from Local to LAN shares
tap New.. then Scan ... your pc should show
tap it and hold, edit login parameters as necessary
tada ... now you can move files from pc to sdcard or ext sd card, no prob .. Local to LAN or vice versa
tip: I opened the 5GHz band on My dual band router and have My SGS3 connect on that band ... this achieves speeds up to 150Mbps between pc and phone instead of usual max of 65Mbps on 2.4GHz band
another file transfer method ... Dropbox
drop files on pc into Dropbox, pick them up in the Dropbox app.. or vice versa
however this will use your internet .. and whatever your monthly limit is ... twice!
once to transfer from pc/phone to Dropbox server... second time back from Dropbox server to phone/pc
the first method using wifi LAN doesn't use your internet, not limit, at all
Windows 8.1; but had same problem with Windows 7 computer.
USB device not recognized
The last USB device you connected to this computer malfunctioned. And Windows does not recognize it.
Windows has stopped this device because it has reported
problems. (Code 43) A request for the USB device descriptor failed
Tried using WUGS Toolkit to install drivers, not happening.
The phone charges via usb port with no problems
On top of that, daughter wiped phone, there are no ROMS, or usable backups.
I can get into TWRP Recovery, but it can recover what isn't there. Tried factory
reset, still nothing. No matter what I do, I get No OS Installed! Are you
sure you wish to reboot? If I do reboot, just get GOOGLE screen with lock
symbol.
Without being able to get a computer to see the phone, I can't get a ROM to
load.
Maybe change USB port with cable? But I don't want to do that if the problem
is software related.
Any ideas what I can do???
I just went through something similar like this last week, what a pain in the A$$.
Not entirely sure if this will fix your issue, but hopefully it'll help some how.
I ended up having to manually install galaxy nexus driver so I could sideload a ROM since I formatted my internal storage to test out this new F2FS BS... Anyways.
LOL
First you'll need to download and unzip "universal naked driver 0.72" Google it.
Now, without your GN connected open device manager and THEN when you plug in your GN to your PC you should see it pop up in the portable devices section.
AND also under other devices there should be "galaxy nexus" right click on it and click "update driver software"
Click "browse my computer for driver software" select the unzipped universal naked driver folder, click next and click "install this driver software anyway"
Now it should show "Google galaxy nexus ADB interface" in device manager under Samsung Android Phone.
Reboot GN into bootloader
OR
recovery (if you have a ADB supported recovery eg. TWRP 2.7.0.0, and enter ADB mode)
Now there are 2 ways to do flash an Android OS, some may find 1 easier then the other:
download/install "Wug's Nexus Root Toolkit aka NRT v1.8.3.sfx"
Google it.
Run NRT and it'll instruct and guide you through the steps required and whatever is needed to continue, eg. Select device, download TWRP 2.7.0.0...ETC.
Or
Download/install ADB setup 1.3
Google it.
I found this method a little more simpler.
Open the folder you have your ROM/gapps zip files saved on your PC, hold down shift key and right click on the folder, click "Open command window here"
Now in the command window type in "adb sideload XXXXX.zip"
XXXXX = COPY/PASTE the ROM file name. Eg. 20140615PA443RC2.zip
Press enter and now it'll flash the ROM onto your GN.
Repeat the same steps for gapps/kernel zip files.
Reboot your GN and enjoy.
BTW
I'm still loving running ParanoidAndroid Jellybean 4.1.2.
Its like pain in the A** to install phone/adb drivers in win8/8.1
I had a similar issue with my gNex a while ago but i had the drivers installed in my pc so it wasn't that difficult.
Why don't you try to install this toolkit http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal.../gnex-toolkit-v11-1-0-drivers-backup-t1392310
When you run the toolkit, it may ask you to select your device, build number etc and also about installing device drivers.
Install the drivers through it and then connect the device in recovery (twrp) mode.
it should detect it and then you can push files/roms to sdcard (internalMemory) using adb push or the built in options in the toolkit.
then flash the rom and you're done
and i recommend using win7 or xp or vista for doing this because the driver installation in win8/8.1 is a bit difficult compared with other previous windows versions but there is still a way to install drivers in win8/8.1 its just a lengthy process
All the best :good:

OK, downloaded universal naked driver 0.72, connected gnex, but it only shows up under Universal Serial Bus controllers as Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed), not under Portable Devices, and will not allow install of of universal naked drivers, & yes I have toggled to allow win 8.1 to installed unsigned drivers. Since I cannot get phone to turn on to full android, it is not recognized. Any other suggestions?

You have to go to the device manager, double click on the "unknown usb..."
a dialog box may appear and then click on the 'driver' tab.
There u may find update/install driver button.
click on it and another window may open.
then select browse my computer for driver software and go to the respective folder where the drivers are.
then click next and it may install the drivers.
if you have installed the toolkit then you may find a folder in the toolkit's installation folder which has drivers in it.go through it if you want :good:
Hi All, sorry this is a fairly long post.
i recently "Upgraded" my SM-P605 to Android 9 and it has been working fine.
i have, however, been experiencing connectivity issue with file transfer via USB.
i have tried several cables (3 Genuine) including a brand new "Generic" cable and keep getting the "device descriptor request failed" error.
i have also tried multiple PC's, loaded all recommended Samsung drivers and finally relented and replaced the USB port in the tablet itself, which still did not fix the problem.
Convinced after all of this it must be software related, i then decided to re-install and earlier version of Android which i copied over to the Tablets internal memory.
i logged into TWRP and wiped the tablet ready to reinstall Android 7. and when i tried it says the zip file is corrupted.
i now have a tablet that wont load the zip file i have, wont read from an SD card in the tablet or OTG (via TWRP) and is unable to connect to a PC via a usb cable..
if anyone could offer any suggestions i would be extremely grateful as i dont want to "Dump" this tablet as i use it daily for work..
Why it does not read the SD card? I would expect that should work and should be the safest bet here...
-Maybe the zip file really is corrupt, which can be easily told by unpacking via pc.
-If the tablet can still charge the battery usb is most likely okay.
-Sdcards can fail by becoming read-only. Most easy to tell by unsuccessfully trying to format them in the tablet or pc , but e. g. under Windows you seemingly can successfully delete and copy stuff, everything as it should even after forced refresh via F5. But after reinserting the card or rebooting the previous state is back.
-ADB has been enabled in developer settings? Then you normally get a notification where you can modify usb mode. Charge-only won't work, but most of the rest should do (Dcim/mtp/msp...) .
-And all the time Windows has to recognize the device via PnP and auto-install drivers for the current usb mode. Besides the aforementioned storage drivers for flashing and communication a modem driver and virtual COM ports must be auto-installed.
In this department i had lots of trouble with a phone based on an old TI OMAP SoC under any Windows newer than seven. Only Download mode invoked on the phone itself was still working and only zseful to restore stock rom, while in the more flexible Fastboot mode the phone wasn't recognized by Windows.
Samsung devices seem to support Fastboot only, but call it Download mode.
To come to an end, if everything fails i'd recommend to install stock rom in "download recovery" (Fastboot?) mode via Kies. If this also fails try to put the P605 manually into Download mode (Power and Volume minus or plus), no need to press home button, as often advised. After this, work your way back to Twrp, custom rom and root.
@crwzar80
Try connecting the tablet to a Windows 7 PC/laptop, making sure it's on an Administrator account (so it can autoload/download needed stuff). Not Windows 10 or even 8.1, but Windows 7.
I had the same problem a while back ago; if your attempt with this method succeeds then report back; I had an unconfirmed hypothesis about this issue.
