So much googleing has been done yet still no luck, so pretty much ADB will not work on my main computer and it worked fine up until i installed droidexplorer which of course didn't work and now has appeared to have broken adb.
so i guess ill list at least a few of the things Ive tried (and yes usb debugging is on lol)
-uninstalling reinstalling adb through the installer and extracting the zip.
-uninstalling reinstalling usb driver x1000 times (the device is listed under device manager so the computer knows its there)
-nearly every USB port on my computer
-uninstalling root hub drivers
anyone got any ideas? (it may or not be linked to droid explorer but it diod stop working as soon as i installed it)
bumb? this is annoying i tried getting it working on another computer but no luck :/ i ahve one computer in another house that i know works though so its not the phone.
edit: ok found the answer instead had to go to mange devices (which i'd done like 50+ times) then go update drivers > browse computer > pick from a list of drivers on computer > there were 3 options i did the first adb drivers 2.0 then adb drivers 4.0 both didn't work then i tried just usb composite device which has fixed it...
I'm currently on DK28 and anytime I plug my phone into my computer via USB cord it just shows that it's charging. This is an issue since I would like to switch to EB13 and I need to be able to use Odin for the EB13 modem. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the Samsung drivers several times and not just on this computer, on two others that I have. I've also tried multiple usb cords and it's all the same thing. I've Googled the problem and everything I've tried has been useless to me, including the PDANet thing. So my question is is there any other way for me to be able to update to an EB13 rom without having to connect via USB? Or does anyone have any other ideas as to how I can fix this? I've been just using a microSD card adapter to put things on my SD for awhile now so that's never been a problem but I can't use Odin unless my computer recognizes my phone I guess.
HELP!!

Have you gone into settings, applications, development and unchecked USB Debugging?
I also have read numerous times where people have found the USB connector on the phone had something bent and was preventing a full good connection.
Good luck
You have got to be missing something drivers can be 32 or 64 bit make sure you have the right one for your computer. Is usb debugging checked in settings/app/development. Randy Shear has alot of step by step stuff for on youtube that might help
Yeah I have USB debugging checked and my computer is 64 bit which is also what my drivers are.
Turn off anti virus and dl driver again thats what I had to do. Reboot both devices also

Tried that too and apparently that wasn't the problem. :\
I read where one person who was having something like this was told to turn their computer off; plug in the phone to the usb and turn the computer on and it worked.
Maybe try that?
I've had this problem, got real annoying after a while. I ended up reinstalling the drivers and turning off usb debugging and it would go into mass storage. Re enabled and tried again, and it continues to work.
Thanks for trying to help guys but unfortunately neither of those things worked either.
I had this problem. I flashed a different ROM (try downloading a new ROM from the phone) then flash it after following the appropriate instructions.
The ROM I had that problem with was Nebula ROM, I fixed it by flashing Bonsai v2.0.
Well I have now tried that as well and even that didn't work. This is so ****ing annoying.

Try flashing another ROM instead of Bonsai. I hate that you're stuck, but I'd try a few more ROMs before giving it to a Sprint Store.
I had this problem as well and did everthing mentioned here as well to no avail.
Now here's what worked for me.
First, install drivers on another pc (ensure that you connect, wait for drivers to load, disconnect and reconnect your phone at least twice..sometimes a takes a couple of connects to install the drivers fully).
Next use odin to flash DK18 stock firmware. When you connect your phone..suddenly mass storage will be back again. You can then load whatever firmware you wish.
This has worked on my phone and a friend's with the same issue.
I had this happen to me on 2 different machines:
- First time: A restart fixed it
- Second time: My phone didn't like the usb ports on my work laptop's docking station. The cable would only work with the actual laptop's usb port.
The device acts as if it is being charged.
Steps I have taken so far:
-uninstalled T-mo Samsung mobile drivers and reinstalled
-deleted (uninstalled) ALL recognized USB devices via USB deview
-tried to connect without Samsung drivers installed and all USB devices uninstalled
-tried to connect with Samsung drivers installed and all USB devices uninstalled
-tried to connect without Samsung drivers and other devices installed
-tried to connect using safe mode, both with drivers installed and not
---**these are both trying with the current one provided on Samsung's site (1.5.14.0) and with the one found here on XDA from 25apr2013 (1.5.23.0)
-tried to connect using different USB ports
-tried to connect using a different USB port on a different USB controller altogether
The kicker:
Device is recognized instantly... on my laptop.
This means:
-It is not the USB cable I am using (even though I have tried 3 different cables altogether regardless, including the one that came with the phone)
-It is not the device itself
Possible: Windows issue? Last time this happened was long ago when I had gotten a MyTouch 3G Slide. I eventually just reinstalled Windows since I had been meaning to then. I don't want to do it now though because I have too many things installed on here to start a fresh install... but I suppose if nothing else works, that's what I'll have to do.
Before that though, I would love to hear any other suggestions from anyone here.
Some time the fault cud be the cable itself... I had same issue months ago my original samsung UsB cables didn't worked... It olwyz show the msg UsB not recognized... Then I tried with a different UsB cable (i had a Nokia UsB cable) and it worked...
Try it...

As stated, I have tried to use two other USB cables aside from just the one that came in the package.
Since all cables work on the laptop, but not this computer, I have pretty much singled it out to be a windows or a driver issue. :\
What are the specs of your desktop and the specs of your laptop? You claim it is a windows issue so I assume your laptop (that recognizes the phone) is not windows? Do you have Kies on the PC? If so, try to uninstall it completely and then install the individual drivers. Also, maybe just try updating Kies. You wouldn't need to install it, just download to your PC should work. As far as that goes, does Kies recognize the phone when plugged in at all? Does ODIN recognize the phone when plugged in? Maybe some of this will help you to find out if it is a driver issue or not. Good luck.

PC is i7 920, 12GB DDR3, Intel x58
Laptop is i5 2430M, 6GB DDR3, Sandy Bridge
Both are Win7 Pro, neither have Kies (I always just downloaded the drivers themselves) but I'm downloading it now to give it a try. As of now, nothing recognizes the phone on PC.
Kies method didn't work either
I did "Troubleshoot connection error", which I guess reinstalled the driver, but it still didn't work.
Getting ready to dig out that Win7 Pro CD at this point... :\

Enabling dev options and USB debugging was the first thing I did once I turned on the phone. Tried it both with and without, still not recognized either way. Still recognized on laptop.
I've also reinstalled windows altogether, since that fixed my issue last time around, but it's no good this time still. Clean install, formatted. No good. Previous steps from first post also taken, still no good. Tried the PDAnet method as well, no good.
At this point I am wondering if it might be an x58 issue, which would really suck, but it's the only thing I can think of given all the steps I have taken.
Okay... so what's the trick on getting Windows 7 x64 to recognize this device in Download Mode?
I have enabled USB Debugging. Tried several different ports on my Maximus V Extreme motherboard. I have tried using the PDANet drivers. Nothing works.Windows will prompt me with the "Device Driver software was not successfully installed" message. Anyone know a trick?
EDIT: FIGURED IT OUT. The last Android device I owned was the Galaxy S2. Now, back then it was understood that one should avoid Kies like the plague. However, in this case, it solved my problem. It installed all necessary drivers and I was able to communicate with ODIN. Cheers.

I might have pinpointed the issue!
I tried Kies again, uninstalled, reinstalled, updated. No go. I did Kies by air and got a connection! So It's gotta be something with the USB.
Although I thought it was weird, I think it might be an x58 issue, I decided to pursue that anyways.
I found out that USB issues are common with x58 (per this forum: http://www.evga.com/forums/tm.aspx?m=159610 ) and will be trying a fix located here: http://www.evga.com/forums/tm.aspx?m=442244&mpage=1
I'll report back once I try this out. Hopefully it fixes it.
If not, I just ordered another USB 3.0 controller (completely unrelated, it doesn't need to be USB 3.0, just a different controller altogether, but USB 3.0 is backwards compatible anyways. I just needed one for blackmagic) which was PCI-e x1 (still dependent on x58, so it wouldn't have mattered, check diagram on fix link), which I WAS going to install in my PCI-e x1 slot, but that would have not worked! Going to install in a PCI-e x16 and hope for the best.
I'll reply back once I test that out too.

In case anyone was wondering or stumbles upon this later, I have a few updates.
I got the USB controller today and plugged it into the PCI-e x16 slot, plugged in the S4 and it worked completely fine.
I also contacted EVGA about the issue and will get an RMA, so perhaps it's just a faulty unit. However, this seems rather common (refer to previous linked threads) in x58 chips.
I imagine it has something to do with power distribution with the controller, which is why upping the ICH voltage fixes it for some people. The USB controller is powered via 4pin, not dependent on Southbridge. I guess the S4 has higher voltage(?) requirements for it to be recognized. It seems rather strange since my other devices are still recognized, but well, that's what I managed to come up with.
Cheers.

Here's my craziness.
USB connection was working yesterday. Today, it is not.
I have uninstalled/reinstalled the Samsung Windows drivers/Kies
I have even adjusted my southbridge voltage to 1.2V in my BIOS
Still, no joy.
Curiously, when I boot the phone into download/ODIN mode and connect it, ODIN recognizes the connection. Reboot back into normal mode, and no USB connection is recognized. It is not showing up in my Device Manager as an unrecognized device. It just doesn't know it is there (unless phone is in download mode).
UPDATE: Solved. I had installed this ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2261013). Reading back over the thread, it provided instructions for re-enabling the USB recognition of the phone. Had to re-enable the developer options and reset USB debugging. Makes sense now.
HI
I'm facing this issue today, I've tried two different laptops, both have Windows 7 x64 installed. I've tried every USB port on the two machines, I've tried with three different cables, I've downloaded and installed every USB driver there is. no use!
I'm out of options here and I can't think where to look further.
any help please?

很想帮你啊 可是英文水平比较拙计
ok so now I'm guessing it is not windows, I tried on another machine with Windows Vista and got the same error.
any thoughts, anyone?
Did a factory reset for the phone
no it works!
don't know why
I just picked up this phone a couple days ago and last night tried to get the USB to work with no luck. I've tried everything I can think of. It does work in PTP mode but not MTP mode. I was able to use odin to on it though, so I was able to root it.
I've tried both in linux and on windows xp. I've never had an issue with any phone on linux and have installed/removed drivers numerous times on XP.
Tried 3 different cables, Factory reset with and without USB installed, tried pretty much everything I could find while googling similar problems (removing old registry entries, installed media player, etc)
I have adb installed on my linux box and even with debugging enabled I can't even get adb to connect to the phone.
Definitely something strange going on. Maybe I'll switch to cm10.1 to see if that makes a difference
I cant get my computer (windows 7) to connect with the phone when the phone is on, and was hoping some one might have found a fix.
This might fix it...

Here's a link with a list of things to try what you may not have tried to fix your problems.
A small number of devices I have worked on have a weird thing, that the first time I plug the cable into the computer, it connects but won't show up on the screen. unplugging the USB cable from the machine for maybe 3 seconds, and reinserting makes the connection work... go figure! :>)
Aloha and Good Luck!

Hello all!
First: I promise I searched the forums and google as hard as I could!
I'm running AOKP JB with CWM, although the problem was present on stock ICS from T-Mobile.
Symptoms: Computer and phone will refuse to acknowledge any connection (nothing shows up in Device Manager), except the phone will still charge. If I do the "remove the battery with USB plugged in" trick, the first time I do it, it will recognize an unknown device, but kies and adb won't recognize it. If I unplug it and plug it back in, it'll go back to not acknowledging any connection.
I previously programmed it (when I was still running stock ROM) via ADB via WiFi, but I need to be able to use ADB via USB. Besides, I can't seem to get ADB over WiFi anymore.
When I plug it into a different computer (Win7), it will, however, recognize my phone.
Earlier this year, before I ever tried programming via WiFi, it connected to my Win8 machine with no problem. I don't think it's a problem with the wifi setup though because the ROM was reinstalled and of course I've restarted ADB in USB mode in the months since...
What I've tried:
Reinstalling Kies
Reinstalling Samsung USB drivers
[^]Restarting the ADB server
Updating ADB
Trying different USB cables
Trying different USB ports
Toggling USB debugging
Toggling MTP mode
The UART thing from the dialer
Restarting the phone and the computer (of course)
Checking to see if my computer's USB drivers need to be updated
The android terminal command "setprop persist.sys.usb.config mass_storage,adb"
Pulling and replacing the battery while connected via USB
Crying in a corner
If anyone can help me, it'd be greatly appreciated! I'm all out of ideas and Google is no longer helpful =/
try to uninstall the drivers that are present anything samsung related to your drivers ... then connect the phone and let the process do its thing if you have the samsung drivers saved on your PC and the drivers still aint working update the drivers and then manually click where the drivers are to install them and hopefully it will work and when you tried MTP is it the only option it gives you no storage or anything ??... and is usb debugging on when you are trying all this ??

I tried on my work computer that didn't have any samsung drivers and when the "unknown device" dialog popped up it didn't do anything or install anything, nor did it show up in Device Manager. Unplugging and replugging it back in did not reproduce the dialog box. Togged USB Debugging and still no dialog box saying it recognized it.
The thing with the samsung drivers is that they're self installing so even if it popped up in Device Manager, I wouldn't be able to manually update the drivers =/
I tried MTP both with and without USB Debugging, although it also gives the option for PTP.
At this point do you think I should unroot and go back to stock? It's not been recognized on three computers now! =[
Are you using the stock cable? My computer wouldn't recognize mine without it.

Both the stock cable and a generic cable.
Similar problem
Similar problem as the OP. And hi guys, it's nice to be on these forums.
My device, when I plug it in using the stock cable, doesn't even charge. It doesn't show up in device manager, nor does it give me a notification, or say it's unsupported and bear that yellow icon. I have tried using different USB ports, I have tried the toggling USB debugging, I have tried restarting phone, computer, and taking out battery. I have tried that PDA/MODEM dialer trick. I am using 4.1.2 Jellybean, not rooted. (that WAS my goal,, until I hit this roadblock) I have not connected it to the computer in the past, it's relatively new. I'm thinking the cable is bust.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. It charges fine through a wall outlet plug, be it generic or stock.
so guys ive come to a conclusion i think its something in the samsung usb cables try getting yourself a blackberry usb cable , TRUST ME !!! ever since i got my phoness etc... tablet and yadi yadi samsung usb cables have always seemed to give me problems i think its because they are multi data/charging cables and when using the blackberry usb cable i have never ever once encountered a problem with any of my phones sd/storage problems do yourself a favor and pick up one of those cables and you will be golden !! if not then i guess im the only lucky one :LOL here you go http://www.amazon.com/Blackberry-Travel-Adapter-Micro-Cable/dp/B004VMVSYK/ref=pd_sim_cps_2 5 bucks!
Edit also one more test boot into recovery and click in the advanced menu and see if mount usb works for you in recovery mode ??
FIX (try using a generic cable)
I actually solved it on my own! After borrowing a generic cable from a friend it booted up! The Samsung cable was just not doing its thing.
yeah im telling you those cables they provide are JUNK!!! i only use my samsung to charge because they do that well but data they are str8 CRAP!! glad you got it up and going

Hope OP will have the same luck as me...pray to the Android gods...

You might try a different cord.
Open Device Manager in Windows and then plug the phone in. Do you see it in the list with a little yellow triangle? Do you see Android USB Devices listed?
OP after literally messing with various driver files, 8 usb ports and 2 laptops, I dug out my old box of cables and found a taped up, on its last limb OEM HTC EVO 4g (not lte the original) cable. This thing has been through the ringer. But its exactly what It needed. I figured with the 3 cable I had already tried this wasn't the issue, but have you tried using an OEM cable? I guess that is all that works. Good Luck

Uninstall all HTC drivers and HTC Sync. Then connect the phone. DO NOT choose the option to automatically install any drivers.
Open Device Manager, find the phone. Select the option to manually pick the driver, and select the generic MTP device driver.
This is what worked for me, after countless attempts at re-installing various HTC drivers, different cables and ports, etc.
Bump. Still looking for answer to this. I have RUU'ed both to Sense and Google Phone editions and the problem still persists, the phone does not detect its connected to a computer and change to mtp accordingly. Only way I was able to get the RUU in there was through fastboot, which is again the only time I can access the phone through usb. Adb is no luck in either android or recovery.

Have you tried revoking the USB debugging authorization and then accepting the RSA fingerprint key again when connecting to PC?
Obviously it can't be an USB cable problem if you can connect to it in bootloader mode and use fastboot commands.
To clarify, the phone just charges when connected, it does not detect that it is connected to PC so debugging doesn't even trigger, neither does mtp. I don't even get the slow charging notification
Does it do the same when you plug it in and reboot the computer to "pick up" during boot up process? Or if you run a live CD? I never had an issue like that with my phone but I did have a similar problem with the USB external blu ray drive I bought some time ago. The pc just didn't detect it at all not on any of the ports until I rebooted my PC with the drive already plugged it and for some reason it picked it up. <Not a solution as I don't know what caused it to not be detected in the first place but still...
Not sure if it's an issue with the device(Phone for you, blu ray drive for me) or if it's a problem with the PC even though other things might still work for you as it definitely did for me(phone, headset, mouse, keyboard, usb extender + all the external hard-drives connected to it)...
Problem exists in all computers, Mac, pc, linux
Did you try what I suggest in Post #6 above?
This worked for me when I had the same issue. adb and fastboot would work, but it would not mount MTP.
And just in the last day or 2 I helped someone else with the same issue and fix.
The phone doesn't show up in device manager.
Have you modify the Kernel? (Applying some settings for example)
I browsed over the web for this issue and found some people with the same problems. They solved by removing the settings applied on the kernel or flashing a new one.
I've flashed various kernels and ruu, still same result
Still looking for help
