Hey all!
I am having a real problem connecting my S2 to the PC. I have tired it on many different PC's and macs and they all have the same problem.
Here's the problem,
When i connect my S2 via usb mass storage it simple just charges and won't been seen by the PC. I downloaded Kies and this also has the same problem, although i can use the wifi option i cannot update the phone this way!
I have tried it in debug mode and this did not work, and the people at samsung over the phone cant seem to work out the problem either.
I bought the phone over Ebay a couple of days ago so it is second hand, and on version 2.0.3.
If anyone has any ideas I would really appreciate it!
go to your phone, type *#7284#
switch UART and USB both to PDA mode
click the qualcomm USB settings button below
select MTP + ADB if you want Media mode and ADB, or PTP + ADB if you want Photo mode + ADB
click OK
take out your USB from your phone and plug it back in
then it should work
Hello my fellow xda peeps, I recently got my Galaxy S3 fixed because of crazy charging problems, and had to replace the charging port. Now it charges fine, but why can't I sync to the PC with USB connection? There's no "Connected To Media Device" in the notifications, it only charges. I have tried different cables and have wiped cache in the stock recovery(not rooted), I have taken out the battery waited 30 seconds and put it back in, enabled USB debugging, disabled USB Debugging, dialed *#7284# and tried MODEM and PDA and have tried under USB Settings MTP + ADB and MTP, I have also tried different USB ports in the computer. I have reinstalled Kies Drivers and troubleshooted on Windows. I really want to root again.
-Any help is greatly appreciated!

Hey, I just had my charging port replaced and i'm having the same issue with not being able to sync / connect to my computer. I was wondering if you ever found a solution.
Thanks!
Chris
Not sure if this works here, but works like a charm every time and not many people know about it but try it:
Boot Download Mode>Hit Up>Connect to PC>Windows should recognize and look for updates for the drivers>Check the status of the driver install Note: If everything is complete, continue>disconnect>remove battery then put back in>
boot normally> Connect to PC>Voila :laugh:
Hope this helps!
Ok so I'm extraordinarily frustrated with getting this to work. I've searched the forum to the point of a headache. Something about the .inf file and hardwar id's. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers a million times. I've even reflashed the stock rom. Can anyone help? usb debugging works and PTP works. Currently back to stock and all drivers currently uninstalled.

Ok, I decided to use a laptop which has never had my N7 attached to it as MTP, only as adb for wugs (before I got comfortable with doing things manually), I had the same problem you did, this is what fixed it. I had used koushes adb driver installer on it, so his driver kept intercepting it.
First I got these drivers and unpacked them: http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html#
Then I plugged in my device, with PTP enabled and updated drivers and browsed to those drivers and let it install...this did not fix it.
Disable usb debugging, plug it in, enable MTP, then go into device manager, then go into the menu and show all devices, you should see something like Google ADB driver, right-click and uninstall it, selecting delete driver checkbox, then reboot your nexus 7 while still plugged in, it should redetect your N7 as a "Nexus 7" and you should see it in Computer as a Portable Media Player, then unplug the device, wait 3-4 seconds to make sure its unmounted, then plug it back in, you should now actually see files.
NOW, once I saw that that worked, I noticed PTP stopped working, leave it plugged in, switch to PTP. then you will see the ADB driver back, uninstall it again, reboot the device leaving it plugged in, it will redetect the device again, it will say MTP again even though it's in PTP, let it finish, then unplug the device, wait a few seconds, and plug it back in, now you should be able to see it connected as a camera, and should be able to see files, now I can switch PTP ro MTP and back again with debugging off resulting in it working fine.
NOTE: USB debugging only works right in PTP mode for me.. which is fine, I tested to make sure that once debugging was off, I can unplug the device, and plug it back in and I can still switch between MTP and PTP perfectly.
EDIT: Actually I am now going to try leaving debugging enabled, in MTP mode, uninstall the ADB driver and reboot the device and see if that fixes that problem too.
EDIT2: AND IT WORKED!
So now I can have debugging on and off, in MTP and PTP mode, adb devices works perfect for either mode.
In summary, i think the REAL trick here is to put the device in each mode combination one at a time, delete the device and driver from device manager and reboot the device while it's still plugged in, then unplug the device and plug it back in, you do this for every combo outlined below, a total of rebooting and unplugging/plugging in the device 3 times...because PTP+debug on or off worked already
MTP on - Debugging off - find entry in device manager, uninstall it, reboot device, leaving it plugged in, verify it shows in Computer, unplug device, wait 3-4 seconds plug device back in, verify you can see files.
PTP on - Debugging off - find entry in device manager, uninstall it, reboot device, leaving it plugged in, verify it shows in Computer, unplug device, wait 3-4 seconds plug device back in, verify you can see files.
MTP on - Debugging on - find entry in device manager, uninstall it, reboot device, leaving it plugged in, verify it shows in Computer, unplug device, wait 3-4 seconds plug device back in, verify you can see files.
..at the end you should be able to have MTP and PTP fully working with or without debugging on.
Try installing Sony PC Companion. It will install the necessary drivers. Works great with my Nexus 7 when connecting to PC in Windows XP .
I'm on WIndows 8.1 and when I connect my N7 2013 to PC, it gives me error Unknown USB Device (port reset failed). Anybody knows how I could fix this issue?

Good luck with that.
mtp
ive had my n7 for couple months now and mtp never worked only ptp until about a week ago when in cleanrom thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2383146&page=389 post 3877 asked 3888 answered. I checked in android devices and did not have the android composite adb interface. so I simply unistalled the drivers I had and plugged in device and bam. working great since. don't know if it was related but the day before I updated my sdk and there were some google drivers in the update list. hope this helps someone!
I don't mind airdroid as an alternative but soooo much nicer to plug in and drag and drop!! GL!!
Okay so I want to manually update to 4.4 (I have the normal 4.2.2 for this model). So first I connect my phone to my laptop to create a backup just in case something goes wrong. And SURPRISE! USB Device Not Recognized. Tried changing the port, the wire, restarting the phone, the laptop, no change. The USB notification is also not showing on the phone, it just sees it as regular charging.
I never had this problem before... I even used USB debugging several times. I thought maybe somehow the settings changed and it's no longer set to MTP. So I go to my phone's settings and can't find the USB settings to check. Looked it up online, they are supposed to be under storage when I press the menu button. I press it and nothing happens, and the USB connection settings are nowhere to be found.
Any ideas?
Have you tried to install your phone's USB driver in your computer?

1. Turn on USB debugging
2. Upgrade to the newest version of Kies
3. Ensure it connects as MTP [media device] not PTP [camera]
Zenfone 2 ZE551ML, rooted with 1-Click Root method, stock everything else, nothing touched, Developer Mode and USB Debugging on.
Here's what it shows when the device is plugged in. I have Intel Android USB Drivers installed. I have tried uninstalling the drivers through Device Manager, but the same driver keeps getting reinstalled.
MTP Mode is selected under USB Settings/Storage whatever it's called, so it should show up in My Computer but it doesn't.
Thanks!
EDIT: I think I solved it, just have to disable USB Development, unplug then replug with MTP or PTP enabled.
