If you have fast charge enabled in KTweaker you have to turn it off to connect to PC.

The cable may be damaged, have you tried a different one? Different port on the PC? Rebooting both devices?

I have tried two other cords and multiple reboots. Even tried another vista desktop.

Tried going back to stock to see if it's a hardware issue?

Ya... but my original rom got erased so I downloaded a rooted stock rom nd8. I could not find stock oh1 rom. It still did not connect
usb. Would the boot version make any difference?

That would mean the USB connection is fried. No, that wouldn't make a difference.

Unfortunately not without replacing the port. Sometimes if you jiggle the cord you can get it to connect.... My S2 I have to prop something under the cord to get it to charge and connect via USB. Sometimes the port is just loose.

[Q] Samsung Galaxy S III USB Lockout

My AT&T Samsung Galaxy S III suddenly no longer works with usb. It can charge with the connection, but it does not show up as any kind of device. No MTP, no PTP, no usb debugging, no anything!
I tried:
- Factory resetting
- Plugging it into a different computer
- Switching to a different ROM
- I even tried to restore to stock firmware, but Odin couldn't see it.
No computer can notice my phone. It doesn't even notify me that it is unrecognized. The usb on my phone is locked out from any connection other than charging.
I use the phone for Android development and I use Eclipse ADT to compile my apps.
Is there any other solution I haven't tried?

Try a different cable, preferably an OEM one. Use a USB slot on the back.

Used the cable that came with my phone on different USB ports. Didn't work.

Already had the drivers installed. Reinstalled, rebooted, still doesn't work.
Here are a couple of other things to check. This menu can be achieved by using dialer code *#7284# on a Tw based rom.

This was Windows 8 and solved by:
Uninstalling the Samsung Drivers
Running CCleaner
Rebooting
Hooking up the phone in each connection type: D/L Mode, MTP, and Debugging
Windows Update loaded the drivers properly

Don't forget pulling out the battery from my phone and going into download mode without the battery. Thanks a lot for your help!
The true fix for this annoying issue is to reboot the phone into download mode. Then hold the power and home buttons down for a few seconds to force a power down. When the phone is off, power it back on like normal, and you can then connect to usb again. This is a pain but it works EVERYTIME, guaranteed.

USB Connection

My computer doesn't at all acknowledge my S3 when I plug it in to a USB port. I have used different cables, Don't have access to other computers to attempt, and it doesn't show my nexus 7 2013 either. It is getting quite irritating, as my SD card won't mount either. It used to work flawlessly but now I have no luck whatsoever. It doesn't even have a hint of existence in Device Manager. It doesn't charge from my laptop either.
I am running CarbonROM with BMS Kernel, have researched, and found no potential fixes that have worked for me. I am open to almost everything, even a full return to stock with Odin. Any help will be very much appreciated.
EDIT: Please PM me or quote me so that I immediately know when someone responds.
Thanks

Ok? Noob question, do the drivers deal with the hardware or software of my phone? If it is the software, it wouldn't work would it? Thanks.
Technically the only hardware is the port on the phone. If that's not working then it never will. Considering that it charges I would go to a TouchWiz ROM and see if the problem is your ROM.

Bricked Zenfone2

I have wiped the phone since I want to flash custom rom.
I am using TWRP recovery but I cannot mount the MicroSD or OTG so that my phone is bricked.
When I go to the fastboot mode or adb sideload mode, the pc cannot recongnize my phone . It says Unknown USB Device (Device descriptor request failed)
Could anyone help ?
Try re-installing drivers. You can find it on Asus's website. If you are using Windows 8/8.1/10, for sure, install driver in "Disable Driver Signature Enforcement Mode". After that you can reflash your phone by any method you want
The pc can load the driver correctly for a few minute and it failed after a few minute
And I also cannot update when it is stuck

Your support would be much appreciated ?

It might not say the same thing if you don't have this set as the default USB option, which you can find and change if necessary if you use the search field at the top of the Android Settings for USB. It's the last option in this screenshot "USB Preferences":

USB Preferences look like this (when you're connected to the PC). What I have selected isn't the default - I had already changed mine:

Lastly, if necessary, have you tried rebooting the phone? Tried rebooting the PC? Tried a different USB port and USB cable?

Sounds like the ol' driver issue rearing its ugly head again. Tons of resources and just as many supposed solutions. One of them will work. Windows 11?

It's the driver. There are a few fixes out there but they are at least a couple of years old. But I believe they still work even though they were for Windows 10. If I recall it was a device manager thing and you needed to install a driver from the system or a delete the driver that is causing the issue and reinstall it. Here's an old thread but you can search for Win 10 Pixel and come up with a bunch of possible solutions. Good luck let us know if you can fix it and how or if you still need help.

Hi guys and girls... I just recieved my new phone a few days ago. Plugged it into an old Windows 7 x64 laptop and Windows instantly updated the driver. On a 2016 Dell E7450 Windows 10 x64 laptop... It didn't. Tried the Google USB drver package...

Question USB tethering

Any way to disable Samsung's 'cable detection' feature? USB tethering doesn't work because device doesn't recognize cable. I'm using original one and tried new and older cables also. I've had similar problems with another Samsung devices before and it's pretty annoying. WIFI is too slow and bluetooth even slower compared to USB so I don't like using them. Device just keeps telling use original cable and starts charging slowly.
Also the usb c port is cleaned, tried restarting device several times, tried all usb ports of my pc. I'm using Windows 10 pro. All drivers are updated and I have newest Samsung drivers.
Turn on Developer options and try setting it up there. No blocked or disabled Samsung system apps, right?

Tried that but it doesn't work. Also Windows is saying it can't recognize usb-device. I have disabled YouTube only because I use another app for that.

Hit take no action in the Windows connect popup*. Then go to Disk Management and punch scan for new devices. Access the drive in that window and do the transfers there. Command line can also be used to access Disk Management etc.
Try rolling back or updating the driver. Installing the latest version of SmartSwitch on Windows should load the correct driver.
*you must authorize the connection first on the Android via a popup window that should appear after being connected.
Not working. Reinstalled all usb drivers including Samsung ones. Smartswitch is not working because Windows can't recognize this device at all. Maybe I just reinstall Windows some day and try if it works then. Thanks for the help.

You're welcome.
Try another port and cable.
Reboot, always reboot Windows.
Check Event Viewer for error messages.
For Windows to recognize the device you sometimes need to use the scan for new devices command in Disk Management. The solution is likely simple and right in front of you.
Play with it... fun times.
