Try this:
I was having a similar issue and uninstalling and then reinstalling all the drivers, software, etc. didn't work for me. But this did;
http://blog.vacs.fr/index.php?post/2...Samsung-phones
Resolution
1. Unplug the USB cable
2. On the cell phone, dial the following number: *#7284#
Once the last # is hit, the PhoneUtil application is launched. Choose USB -> Modem and then USB -> PDA mode.
The good mode should be PDA. Even if the mode is PDA, switch to Modem and then back to PDA.
3. Plug the USB cable.

i had to have damaged something on the phone
cause this all started right after the fail in odin
I'm running 4.1.1 and every time I plug my device in (With stock USB) I get "USB device not recognized"
I've tried another USB. I've downloaded Kies (Will only connect wifi), I've tried reinstalling drivers, I've tried using another computer as well. I've also enabled/disabled USB debugging,
The USB connection notification only appears sometimes, and even when it does my computer still won't recognize my S3. After I reinstall the drivers my phone does say "Connected as a Media device", but then the notification goes away..
FYI, I'm trying to root, that's why I need a direct connection with my computer so badly.
Does your computer has samsung kies?
You say drivers. Idk what u mean but all we need is samsung kies.

I tried your method a few days ago, and it didn't work. I tried your method again.. it doesn't work.
I had this issue. All I did was get some good ol canned air and blew the dust out of my micro usb port. After that it connects just fine. Was about to do a warranty exchange before I did this.

Its your rom on the phone that's causing this. If you want to rule it out, why don't you just do a nandroid backup and install stock rom or perhaps the same rom clean from start. I had this issue before and it was fixed with reflashing clean rom.

I should probably mention the phone charges will of the USB cables but none of them work with the PC. I can't tell if it's a software issue or internal..
I think it's a computer issue, what was the other computer software you tried on?

Tried it with W7 & Mac, neither recognize the device. Android file transfer just tells me "no device found", and the Kies on mac doesn't work either.
I still won't update my computer from XP cause all I read are device errors with upgraded versions of windows... see if you can get your hands on XP and try. Just as insurance, you have gone through device manager and removed all drivers for the phone and then pushed the proper ones from Samsung, correct?

watch the screen closely when you connect the phone to the pc. does it even recognize thst some usb device was plugged in?
After a few moments, (with the phone still connected) click start,right click on my computer, select manage and select device manager.
are there any yellow question marks on the right side under the computer?
Open the modems (click the + sign) is there any SAMSUNG USB Modem? (should have no yellow question mark)
Open Universal Serial Bus controllers, do you see the samsung Mobile USB Composite Device?
There should be NO yellow question marks or exclamation marks anywhere on the right panel.
If there are, there is a problem with your computer settings/drivers or services.
If you followed my "cannot fail" steps EXACTLY in the order I had it, and did not skip anything, you should be without any problems with the modem connectivity. That includes the uninstallation of any samsung drivers previously installed.
If you do not even see the samsung modem, the cables or the phone may be your problem.
Post your results and I'll help you to get it working. Also mention what your compurter's OS is.

My bad, speed reading is not always good... thanks for pointing that out.
Anyway, did the OP ever get this resolved? Bobolinko's steps are thorough and if that didn't fix it, why don't you just try to go into download mode and ODIN a stock ROM with root injected into it already? It's another option...
Did you try buying a fresh new cable to connect the phone to the computer? I only have those issues with corrupted USB cable and a messy laptop...
Also when that notification appears for me I go to my phone USB section and tells it to mount as storage...and if its on storage I switch media than back to storage...always work for me.

As soon as I plug my S3 in, my computer recognizes a USB is active. In Device Manager, I do not have Samsung USB, all I have is "Unknown Device". I'm not sure what you mean by yellow exclamation point in the bottom right, but there's nothing in my notifications. However, I do get 2 yellow exclamations in device manager. One in Universal Series Bus, and one in other devices
Hi there.
Check this
On calls hit *#7284#
Check if pda is enabled then click on qualcomm settings and see if mtb+adb are enabled.
If not then just enable those.
Hope this is your problem.
Good luck.

I've tried this as well. I get this error:
"Connection problem or invalid MMI code"
The problem is with your computer, and not the phone. You CANNOT get it connected with a problem in the USB settings.
click on the yellow exclamation items and DELETE or UNINSTALL them. then reboot the machine and it should reinstall automatically. If your DRIVERS that are already in the machine are bad, you have to get them updated or replaced. uninstall KIES from the computer, reboot, and reinstall it. go to samsung's site and download and install the driver for your comuter.
The one for the xp is: SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_1.4.8.0.exe
install it to your computer and be SURE there is no error while it installs.
then check again your device manager list for any yellow problem areas
connect the phone and wait a while, then, disconnect and wait about a minute
then again, connect the phone, and wait at least one minute. open the device manager page and see if there are any yellow area problems again.
are you positive you have the latest window updates?
you can sometimes right click on an item and do the driver update and fix a problem.
You clear all the COMPUTER END PROBLEMS you have and the phone will connect. That, my friend, you can take to the bank.
Good Luck!
Aloha,

I've tried this on both my work PC and my home PC. When I plug the phone in, it makes the familiar connection sound and will start to charge but the computer doesn't ask me if I want to open it up for USB browsing. This is recent and there have been no firmware changes. I've rebooted the computers and the phone but nothing seems to matter. Has anyone else encountered this issue?
do you have developer options (in settings) on or off? Has the usb cable been roughly removed from the phone lately. it may be damaged?
developer options are off, I've also tried several cables
Are you rooted and on a custom Rom?

It doesn't mount as a USB drive, it mounts as a media device because it uses MTP. That's not an issue with the phone, it has to do with how Samsung set it up.

Do what the poster above me said, then make sure to unlock your phone after plugging it in or else your files won't show up

Its the same thing i can't transfer files to the phone or the external card.I don't get it i never had a problem with my galaxy 2.I've uninstalled the drives installed them again and used different cables.
i have the same problem too. my phone nolonger shows up as a storage device on my pc. i have developer options on and usb debugging checked. ive tried different cables , different computer , tried rebooting phone, tried reinstalling the drivers too .. nothing seems to fix this issue... earlier today it was working fine .. when i plug it in it pops up samsung modem and thats it.. please help
This is very strange, as a work around you can use Wireless Transfer. I've used this as my main method since my OG Epic.
same issue trying the fixes mentioned. after reinstalling the driver i get about 3 files transferred then it pops up with that error....WTH is goin on i have several gigs of books and music how am i supposed to get them off?
---------- Post added at 07:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:50 PM ----------
THis is complete crap! why is this goin on?! I can get my pc to recognize the device i can browse directories but it suddenly tries to decide when to quit when i try to transfer files. I can only get about 5 folders moved before it thinks thats all and just stops it no longer comes up with the device not functioning error message anymore.......please somebody help. I dont have a large enough sd card to just transfer. Ive searched on google and there are not actually explanation only that you cant mount the internal storage as mass storage.....samsung is going the way of HTC for me. Stupid oversights renders the device a complete waste to me. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
---------- Post added at 07:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:10 PM ----------
Ok last one. I was considering getting the note 8.0, is this something that all of their devices are gonna suffer from?
I'm not going to pretend to know what's wrong with your device, as I have 2 Galaxy S3 and a Gnex and 2 Epics which all connect just fine and I can transfer any and all files from the desktop or laptop no issues.
But I will suggest maybe you set up a drop box and you can share all those files from your phone to computer or visa versa.

well after a couple deep breaths i went ahead and did that after posting those. I still cant locate a reason why it would come up with that error. There are a couple posts in another forum talking about it being win7 related and not the device it self. Ive tested other cables, rebooted pc/device, checked/reinstalled drivers, and nothing come up out of the ordinary. I hope someone locates the issues, just for having an answer to this headache. thx
An answer-
For those who are having issues insure that your device is on a Stock TouchWiz ROM.
MAKE SURE DEVICE IS UNPLUGGED THIS ENTIRE PROCESS.
1.
= Go to the Dialpad.
= Enter this code ##3424#
= Menu will pop up click Qualcomm USB Settings.
= Click the 2nd Option MTP+ADB
= Press Save
Done
2.
= On your computer go to Control Panel Click Category for the viewing style.
= You will see Uninstall A Program. Click that and go to S- Uninstall Everything Samsung.
= Plug your device back in and let default drivers install takes average 45-60 seconds.
= Device detected as MTP. You may now transfer files.
Done
Let me know if this worked for you.
Ok i tried that and when i plugged the phone back in to install the drivers,they all installed except the CDC serial it says no driver found.I need help please.
do you have any other phone drivers installed on your PC?

As you said, the CDC serial (Unknown Device) popped up. Unplug your device and install drivers.
http://www.samsung.com/us/support/owners/product/SPH-D710
Click "Download" tab at the bottom and press the "EXE" button to download.
-Plug your phone back in afterwards and keep "Device Manager" open you will see the CDC Device disappear.
-When its installing I recommend keeping the "Installing Drivers" window open to see when everything is finished.
-After that's done switch phone to PTP via the notification menu. Let it load drivers and it will install as a camera.
-Switch back and MTP should be working.
Let me know how it goes.

hi, i got this sgn from a friend with a broken screen, and ive now replaced the screen and the phone turns on and boots up no problem. but when i plug it in to my puter, it says usb device not recognized, one ot the usb devices attached.... as well in settings the wifi on/off toggle starts greyed out, if i go into the wifi setup, i can push the toggle and it says turning on wifi, but then after about 20 seconds or so, it just flicks the toggle back to off. bluetooth if i press the toggle, it instantly flicks back to off, and wont turn/stay on. and the last thing i have noticed that is not right, is when i try to go into the camera, it just f/c's and says gallery has has stopped, yet if i go into the gallery, it comes up. but f/c's if i try to access the camera.. i am thinking its probably a hardware issue, just was wondering if anyone might be able to give me any extra insight or suggestions, thanks in advance.
edit: oh, and the phone charges through the usb port, which i find weird that the puter wont recognize it...

You dont need Odin. Just use fastboot and flash the latest Factory image. There are plenty of guides on how to do that. Good luck! If you cant get it to work just let me know.

something i did notice was that i have another sgn here and i went to the storage settings, and i was able to uncheck both mtp and ptp and my computer installed a new device "samsung something something" cant remember what the new device was tho..
oh and the bootloader is locked on the sgn im trying to fix and it is unlocked on the second sgn i have here...
could that have something to do with any of this?
When I plug in my USB cable, it only charges, it no loner allows me to transfer files to my Desktop/Laptop. Nothing shows up on my computer.
When I start my LG PC software it never connects.
How can I set it so when my USB cable is plugged it allows me to transfer files and browse the drive.
I have looked everywhere and the options given does not work on this phone. Is there a setting I may have accidentally disabled??
have you ever connect via USB successful

Remove all LG Software, TOOLS, USB Drivers, and Install latest LG USB driver 3.11
Go device manager to check if all LG device is installed properly, You should find mtp device in the device manager.

I've had this happen on my old phone occasionally, and found I had to turn the phone completely off (not just reboot) and back on to get the computer to recognize the phone again.
I can power off, take out battery, flash new rom ,factory reset ,wipe cache ,dalvic everything and no matter what computer I connect it to it just charges its not a matter of having driver its like the computer doesn't even know I plugged something in. happened after I flashed I think it was dragon rom not even sure or maybe after I updated the ota while rooted or is it you cant ota with cwm/twrp installed
