USB Transfer Issues

Hey everyone,
I've been having issues with the USB file transfer process with my SGS3.
For example, whenever I want to back up my titanium backup folder and nandroid backups to my computer's hard drive, the transfer would only transfer a few files and not all of the selected at once. I've tried using various methods of copying and still no luck.
I am having trouble backing up my phone to my computer because of this.
I am using the stock USB cable that came with the phone and the latest Samsung USB drivers are installed on said PC.
If anyone else has a similar issue or knows how to fix it so I can start flashing/updating new ROMs more frequently, please let me know.
Otherwise the phone is amazing and I have had experienced no other issues with it thus far.
Thanks!

When you're copying the files, is your phone set to mtp or ptp file transfer mode? (Assuming you're on stock Rom)
Yea I just had a problem with transferring files turned out the stock usb cable is just cheap garbage and another cable fixed me up

I gotta make a thread about this.
You didn't say what OS your PC is or S3 Carrier???. It makes a difference.
Go to Device Manager and tell me if you see Yellow Explamations?
For Win7 and probably Vista, and bell/rogers/At&t, download and reinstall these drivers.
(they are AT&T drivers but trust me...they work perfect for Rogers....and WITHOUT KIES INSTALLED!
BUT...They never quite install smoothly for me....6 PCs now.
So it may say "PROBLEM installing etc." but keep going.
Pull the usb cable out...wait a few seconds.... and re insert.
Check Device manager again.
If you still have problems....manually initiate a Windows Update while the usb is plugged in.
Pull the usb cable out...wait a few seconds.... and re insert.
If you have Xp...let me know. There are different issues.

My files got deleted

Hello.
I need some help because I had some important files in my phone (such as fotos and documents) which got deleted I dunno why!
I was tranfering some music to the phone via USB cable and then I erased a folder with strange characters (I mean ".FHniod555dsniosd" something like that). Well, the connection was interupted and I had to remove the USB cable from the phone. Then I noticed all my files had been deleted.
Can I recover the files? How? What did I do wrong to cause this? The folder was empty :|

Transfer Files from PC

I've been trying to transfer the files I took from my Galaxy S4 and saved them to my computer, to my G3. When I connect the G3 to my computer, I only see 2 files in the "Internal Storage". It won't recognize my SD Card either. Is there a setting I may be missing, that will allow me to see other folders? I can't copy and paste anything to my Internal Storage. Thanks for your help.

Hmmm...I tried to upload the pics from my desktop and I get this message. "Failed to upload. No write permission on sd card."
I have to turn on the camera mode for it to transfer. It won't recognize anything in MTP mode. :/
I wish I could do all this without using AirDroid. It won't show the phone in MTP, but in PTP it will, but only 2 folders on the whole phone, no sdcard. And I can't directly put anything on the phone.
I had a problem with my D855 MTP mode as well. Folders are all there, but some files are either missing, or reduced in size. I cannot copy them out to PC. In these folders, I also cannot copy files into them. What I did to resolve the problem, is to reboot the phone with USB cable attached to the PC. Then, before the phone can complete its boot up sequence, I will have some time to copy the files in and out. It is really quite troublesome.
MTP troubles?
This is what's worked for me (D850/at&t):
Install LG United Mobile driver for ADB support
Enable USB debugging in developer options on phone
Verify MTP mode is selected
Connect USB and accept RSA signature on phone
I know that ADB isn't particularly necessary for MTP, but in my experience with roms on the old Nexus (for which I used Google's ADB driver), it was a sure bet every time. gl

Thanks for the suggestions guys. But it seems like my phone refuses to be recognized in MTP mode. And only partially recognized in PTP. I think I may have to do a hard reset this weekend. :/
I went back to Best Buy yesterday and returned my phone and got another one. And now my file transfers work. I guess I had a defective phone. I'm glad everything got back to normal.
I also had the problem that I didn't see my SDcard, but when I disabled debugging mode I suddenly could

Datatrasfer speed horrible

Hi mates,
I have big issues with data transfer with my device. I wanted to do a backup of my files (Whatsapp and several folders). My System is Windows 10. When I connect my phone to my PC and choose "Data Transfer" on it I see my Pixel at the Explorer on my PC. Now when I try to drag and drop a folder to my PC it calculates the duration but nothing happens and then my Explorer crashes. Does anyone have the Same Issue? Sadly I cant remove the SD Card because there isn't one. How do you drag and drop big folders? Dragging single files works, but i cant drag 5000+ files at their own.

Hello,
Maybe a Windows driver problem?
Did it happen suddenly or it has always been this way?
Did you try on another computer?
Another USB cord?
Tried another phone to see if it transfers fine to the same computer?
Good luck...
Thanks for your advices.
Maybe a Windows driver problem? nope..
Did it happen suddenly or it has always been this way? always
Did you try on another computer? yes, same ****.
Another USB cord? Same ****
Tried another phone to see if it transfers fine to the same computer? all the nexus/pixel with solid storage does this.
I Try now Wondershare MobileGO, it's slow af but it works U don't have these Problems?

Hello, not at all...
File transfert is super fast. From Windows 10 to Pixel and from Pixel to Windows 10.
Can you try to uninstall the Pixel driver from device manager, also uninstall the device completely when plugged in... Then unplug and plug it back. Select transfert on the Pixel and let it update the driver.
Also, are you completely stock or is your bootloader unlocked? If unlocked, try booting TWRP.img and try transferring from here.
Good luck...
Same here. i actually made a thread about it a while back, cant find it though.
Speeds literally crawl to 256kbps some times!
Happens on my gaming machine, and my linux pc, on all ports, with both my cables. with the same setup i can get around 30-40mbps with my nexus 5x and 6.
i notice it happen more often transferring from pc to phone, but it happens consistently both ways. Ive tried with adb debugging, without adb, ptp and mtp, and all my drivers are synced up with google so they are the latest. i ended up setting wireless transfer up.
Super fast for me after 7.1.2
i agree MTP blows but after the update I moved 1.25gb of music in less than a minute using USB 3 connection.

Can't tranfer apk/exe files

Like title says N8P doesn't let me to tranfer apk or exe files from PC to internal memory/SD neither through windows explorer or HiSuite. Tranfer start then stop after about 30-40%, phone disconnect and connect again to PC. For example I tried to tranfer a GCamera for N8P apk (from this forum) to SD card to install it. It's any protection somewhere i must remove it?
ThankYou!
My best guess is that your cable is damaged. Next would be something with HiSuite, however I can't comment on that since I never used this peace of software.
You could try:
- use adb for file transfer (if it still doesn't work cable damage)
- another cable
If you need to transfer an apk to your phone why don't you just download it directly to your phone. Unless you're developing yourself you should be able to get anything directly to the phone.
It's something with apk and exe files because I can transfer everything else. For example videos over 1Gb, pictures, anything. But if it's apk or exe it happens what I said even if have 20Mb
Sure, I can find other ways to do this. I did it through google drive. I just wander if it have any protection?
