So I have the Tmobile variant of the S3 and I have tried everything and spent countless hours trying to fix my problem. My phone will not connect to my computer after I tried with different cables and going through the phone utilities. I also did what other forums said and I had no luck. The binary count is at 10 because I tried to root this phone long time ago and I was unsuccessful. The device is not rooted because I checked if I had root access. The phone will only charge when I connect it to the computer and I need it to update to the stock 4.3 from Tmobile using odin. Any help??

Are you using cables bought with chargers? Or are you using quality "Data Cables"? Also, try different USB ports on the computer. Uninstall and reinstall drivers from Device Manager. If it will charge, but not transfer data, it sounds to me that its either a cable issue, or a driver issue. (Could be a bad port on the phone as well, but this is less likely)

Yeah I tried all of that and I still had no luck
If you are stock, unrooted, can't you just use the software update in settings > about device?
When connected to the computer, what does it say in device manager?
Can you try on a different computer? If it also does not work on another computer, it may be more likely that there is a problem with the port on your phone.

I would try downloading the drivers from the Samsung website. It doesn't really sound like it would be a problem with the phone. Also try switching between MTP and PTP and waiting a couple of minutes in between to see if the computer installs the phone correctly.
You can get drivers from my Sig if you want to try several different versions. Just make sure you uninstall through device manager.
Hi
I recommend you try re installing your cell phones drivers on your computer or flashing your ROM correctly. Try updating the device manually.

I tried to do all that with the drivers but the phone will not connect regardless.
Sounds like its either cables or usb ports then. See if you cant get a hold of an actual data cable, preferably a samsung replacement. Then try that on every usb port on the computer.
And for the drivers, are you uninstalling them through device manager before trying a different version? In my driver repo at least try the oldest and the 2nd and 3rd from the newest if you haven't already.
If none of the above works you may need to consider either reformatting and reinstalling Windows, or try to do this on a friend ir family members computer.

did this problem started since you flashed Kyan rom 1.3 cause I had the same problem a few weeks ago and I recently flashed the latest CM10 rom and everything works fine now. Does your phone charge when you plug it?.
My phone charges when I plug it in.
I can't be sure if this only happend after I flashed kyanROM 1.3.
That is definitely something I did since the last time it was pluged into a computer.
Maybe ill just flash cm10.

Sounds like it may indeed be a problem with the phone's hardware. You might want to try taking it into the store to see if they can reproduce.
i re-flashed my phone using an old backup from when i knew usb connectivity was working,
still not working.
Brought the phone to an ATT device support center while on stock rooted rom.
They didn't realize the phone was rooted and they couldn't re-flash my phone without usb connectivity so I got it replace.
I am going to run stock rom for a bit... maybe until the official jelly bean release.
then maybe ill go back to Kyanrom or cm10... any suggestions?
Ilso I am not sure what created my usb issue.
I think it was my regular use of an old iPad power brick.
I am going to only use the stock charger from now on and hope that problem doesn't come back.

Had the same problem, but my work machine has never once gave me a problem, the one at home does this exact same thing, it maybe a phone hardware problem if you see it doing it on another machine, but I dunno, only reason I haven't fixed the home issue is, I do NOT want to re-install win7, my linux box see's it perfect every time also. I read somewhere in a forum, that it is a samung/microsoft driver bug. It is stored in the registry somewhere, what I saw was I had it working perfectly, then I plugged in my MyTouch to push a stock rom onto it, and then the next time I went to plug in the SG3 the problem started. Windows acts real stupid when you continuously keep plugging in different devices all the time. But then again, you said you tried it on a mac. Humm! Again, this is my opinion only.
same problem i have with no solution need help also please
same problem i have without any solution i need help please
Had the same problem, but with a brand new SGS3 with the stock ROM and cable. Plugged in my Nexus 7 cable instead and that works for some reason. Will bother best buy about it I guess.
got the same issue. tried to sync some files over from the gs3 to my laptop and it only charges the phone, does not recognize it . tried several cables and tried on my desktop, nothing. now im in search cuz this kinda sucks. i flashed CM10 ROM2 and it stopped working for me after that, tried restoring back to rooted stock TW but nothing still. still looking for a fix.
One thing I noticed is that all the computers where I'm having issues are running win7. One win7 home premium and the other win7 pro.
In the office I have XP pro and it recognizes the phone with no problems.
I was flashing several different ROMs last week so I could try them out first hand. I settled on Universe ROM. Now my phone is not detected at all, by any computer, whether in Android Or Odin mode makes no difference. I flashed back to Calkulin's E4GT2 ROM, which was already on my SD card, still no worky. Please help?!?!?!?!

I have a similar issue. This happened just after I rooted my phone. No USB connetion.....more or less. I'm now running Windows 8 and when I installed the drivers and connected my phone Windows starts the installation and it detects the SAMSUNG USB Composite Device and the SAMSUMG Mobile Modem but I can't access the SD card or internal memory. I changed the cable and reinstalled the drivers. I even installed Kies and it says that my device is not supported....any more ideas?
have you checked to see if you are in the "AP" mode when you dial ##8778#, you need to have a stock dialer for the codes to work on some custom roms the dialer codes will not work.
Default is set to"AP"
"AP" <----....xfer files
"CP" is used when programing to other carriers..etc...via CDMA Workshop.......
"ALL" <-----some people like to use this setting
didn't work

I had the problem when I was running the ParanoidAndroid ROM, I couldnt tell you how many times I odin'd EL26 and clean flashed. My usb worked fine after flash until I installed my apps using TB. So I went app for app, installed an app, plugged into my laptop. For me it was the simi clock widget whenever I installed that it would no longer link up to computer. I uninstalled it and am now back to normal.
Same here with Jedi Jelly 4 |4.1.2||Flashbar|| 1|17
Please help.
Samsung phone are REALLY picky about what cables you use. Some cables will only charge the device when you plug into USB, others will allow you to interface with a PC. The stock cable that came with your E4GT is the best to use, also the HTC smartphone microUSB cables work too. Hit and miss with LG and Motorola cables.
Do you have extweaks on that rom? If so you can force it to hook up thru the usb settings section.
When I originally rooted the same thing happened. It was almost like it had no setting to hook up to a PC. Only fix I found was driver sweeping the pc, reinstall the drivers, and switching roms untill one hooked up again. Repeat the driver sweep for each rom. It was a hassle but it worked. Landed on the blu kuban.

really? because I've been having the same issue and I haven't done any mods or anything with my phone yet...pretty stock. But I took it to a boost near me and the clerk plugged it at it got detected in no time.
I plugged other devices into the same USB_port with the same cable and the port and cable seem to be fine in my computer and no go, got the latest driver still nothing, and at some point I tryed to older drivers and still nothing.
I guess i'll have to try another uUSB cable. I only have one laying around
am running Vista x64, the pc at the store was running 7 x64 btw, not sure if that makes any difference

I've had same issue with Samsung Galaxy S4 (I9506). After a week of trying all available custom and official rom's I've followed pariah1570 advice to uninstall some apps and it worked! Great thanks. I don't know yet which app caused this problem, but I'm installing it one by one and checking.
Hello
I'm having issues connecting my phone to my computer.
It simply does not recognize my phone.
I had one of my friends flash a ROM for me but I have since then forgotten which one it is.
I searched a bit on the internet and tried a couple of things with no success.
I tried turning my phone off then connecting the starting up but nothing.
I also have kies installed on my computer and phone but not sure what I can do with that yet since my phone wont connect.
That's about all I know so far.
Any help is appreciated.
Hm Maybe the drivers? I'm not too sure. Also try a different port and a different cable if you have one.

My samsung Galaxy S2 Model SPH-D710 just updated to Android 4.0.4 and now will not connect via USB to my computer running Win7.I don't use Kies and never had to.
I never had this problem with it before, first time I tried since that update just the other day and so I'm guessing it has something to do with it.
Running Stock. I don't see anywhere in the phone to make it connect to get the phone itself to show up as a drive.

That may or may not work. Stock TW ICS took out the USB mount option, so its a little tricky.
If you're rooted, try one of those USB switcher apps on the playstore. Some are free.
Samsung/Sprint/Google/Whoeveryouwanttoblame in their infinite wisdom decided to remove USB mass storage. You have to mount it via MTP on ICS. PITA if you ask me. It's no longer a removable drive. Look and see if it shows up as a media player. Also, check your device manager for unknown devices.
nothing is working. WHY? obviously I can take the SDcard out and read it, but the phone has just as large of GIG built into it and is now inaccessible!!!
Used diff connectors, diff USB ports on my puter... I have no idea what to do next?
I guess ROOT?
If I do what is the opinion of the best ROM out there for this phone?
It's back finally, I downloaded the USB drivers manually, but the next time I plugged the phone in 'windows' took over, but skipped the installed drivers and downloaded new ones and it's back to normal... FYI incase anyone needs the same thing.
UPDATED**** 1-23-2014
The USB issue was due to the port malfunctioning. I ordered a replacement part via Ebay for about 7 bucks and fixed it. Now I have PC access. As far as in updating the firmware...after 12 failed attempts via AT&T I just manually did it via Odin and now it is updated. Thanks for everyone trying to help me out. Hated it was a hardware issue and not just a tech/Soft problem :/
The past week I have noticed my Note 2 charging slower than normal. Sometimes randomly disconnecting and connecting when plugged into the ac adaptor. I figured it could have been the cable or the adaptor itself...so I replaced it. It seemed to work...but then it was acting buggy again. Then...lastnight I noticed when I was wanting to transfer a few file from my laptop to the phone...it would charge the phone but would not allow it to connect to the file system at all. I scoured the net for solutions and tried just about everything I could find...as well as the more simpler options as try a different cable...but nothing worked. I also tried it on 2 other laptops...no luck.
My phone was rooted...but never used a custom rom and so I decided to just unroot and do a clean slate in case there was something that borked. Everything went smooth...but now, after doing the unroot and factory reset...the usb still charges...but no connection at all. I went through all the settings and set them as they should and nada. On top of that while I do have my phone service...I have no data at all. I have called att and they were no help. Samsung passed me off to android customer service and they were no help. So now what can I do?
Problems:
-No mobile data available
-No USB to PC file transfer ability (kies air works...but not usb to pc)
-I also cannot update past 4.1.1. The updater says I can check again in 24 hours....lol
Ok...so I fixed one issue already. Found a solution to the mobile data network issue. It would appear that due to the factory reset...it lost all of the APN info for linking with at&t. I found how to restore it here: http://forums.att.com/t5/Android-Di...-Phone-APN-Settings/td-p/3467513#.Ustjil8e-Co

This is irritating because ever since I unrooted and restored to original fw the usb charge works perfectly fine...no longer cutting in and out like it used too. But just cannot connect to the PC via USB for file transfers. Kies works fine doing that...but USB is no long an option

So I did a factory reset again just in case...still the same issues. USB will charge...but no connect. Kies and PC will not see it. Only kies air works. On top of that I have now attempted to update the firmware via at&t through settings and it fails EVERY time. It downloads 100% and after reboot and goes into at&t installation it always fails at 24 or 25%. 5 times in a row...for 5 days is ridiculous. Any more ideas?
At this stage I wish I could re-root it and then flash the original stock rom again to make sure that it didn't bork the first time. But I cant I'm assuming because I need to be able to connect via USB. Am I wrong? Am I wasting my time?

Since USB is charging. Can you check under device manager, what name it is showing for your device? May be you are missing drivers therefore your phone is not recognized by PC.

It doesn't show anything. The only thing that stops the phone charging when I disable or uninstall is what is labeled Renesas electronics USB 3.o root hub and host controller. 2 separate items. BUT...its not plugged into a 3.0 port anyway...even though in the past it has worked fine...for over a year no less. I have uninstalled that item...as well as uninstall the Samsung drivers before...rebooted while phone is NOT plugged in...re-installed the Samsung drivers...then plugged the phone back in and it still doesn't work. Still charges...and the item comes back...but no usb to pc file exploring capabilities. Same for other computers too. Have tried another computer as well...one that my phone has never plugged into. It charges...but no connectivity. The computers just don't even see it for some reason.
Is there a way I can root the phone without USB to pc support? I'm hoping to try and update it once rooted with ODIN.
You don't need root access to flash a stock rom. I was having usb-charging issues, and a return to stock 4.1.1 cured the issue. I replaced the USB board but that didn't fix it. So, stock would be my advice.
You could put the stock package on your SD card using an adaptor and your PC. But I don't know if you have a custom recovery.

My only thing is I have no usb to pc file sharing capabilities unless I use Kies Air. Otherwise I cannot. I have tried now 8 times so far to update the phone and I cannot. It downloads fine...but upon rebooting to install it fails everytime at 24 to 25%. All I want to do is update the phone. It is a simple as that.
Take your SD card out of your phone.
Put it in an adapter.
Put that in a PC with an SD card slot.
Copy the stock ROM to the SD card.
Remove the SD card from the PC and adaptor, then insert it in your phone.
Boot into recovery and flash the ROM.

When you say boot into recovery...are you talking about where I load rom from sd card...adb or something like that? And...can I do this for 4.3? I have 4.1.1 already. I was trying to update to 4.1.2 to see if it will fix the usb issue as well as the updating issue. But if I just had the 4.1.2 and flashed it would that do the same thing as updating?
