It might be your antivirus or any other program using/ connected to your phone other than kies.
You can do few possible things, of I can think of
1. Turn off your antivirus during upgrade
2. use another USB cable
3. restart the mobile
4. check if you can copy/ paste files from/ to mobile/ computer
5. If yes, you should be able to upgrade through Kies
6. Sometimes Samsung server is down
If it doesnot help, let me know
many thanks I will try this asap
well ive tried the anti-virus & firewall thing with no effect,is there a coinsidence that my model doesn't have 3 button reset and this problem? unfortunately im not pc savy enough to know where the files are on the pc to copy n paste. i did try a diferent cable & after each attempt to ugrade & device not recognized the phone will only start after ive whipped the battery out ...........................so once again any help would be great , thanks.

Dear I am not sure what wrong there, as you said 3 Button combo is not working, I would suggest to enable it 1st from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=810686
Once it is working, you will be able to flash/ install any firmware
maybe If you open Kies as Administrator, it might solve your problem or 1st repair the windows using windows CD and then open kies as Admin and try the same process. I hope you understand I am just guessing what might be the problem with your PC
I have just installed the HD7 B3 on my WiFi only Streak7, everything I can see works great apart from I can not for the life of me get Windows 7 Pro SP1 to recognize the device anymore, where as I was able to access the device fully before the install and it was recognized as Dell Streak 7, everytime I try and install the drivers for the unknown device, windows keeps telling me I have the best drivers for it....Arghhhhh
I have searched this section but all to no avail...
Any tips or pointers would be greatly received!
Many thanks,
Mark
I used to be able to put my Captivate in USB debugging mode and enable usb storage and move files perfectly. Now that I think about it the last time I did this was before I upgraded the Captivate to Android 2.2. So, I think something happened after upgrading now when I plug my Captivate I get a driver error and it says Code 43. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling drivers, but don't think it helped I even tried installing from Kies Mini. I am not really sure what to do here. Any help would be greatly appreciated because I really need to transfer some files from Captivate to PC and vice versa asap.
Thanks,
Mo
You should be able to transfer files without drivers installed.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
When I plug it in it says Driver Device Software was not successfully installed. and Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)
then USB Device not recognized pops up.
When I go to my computer there is nothing showing my device so how would I begin to transfer files via USB??
Sorry but am still somewhat new to driver issues and android
Not sure, sounds like your computer. Updating the rom won't cause usb errors.
Do you have wireless connection? If so, download FileZilla or some other ftp client to your computer. Then go to the market and download OnAir or some file server. Then you can use the wireless to ftp files back and forth.
That is until you figure out you computer usb troubles.
Yea I'm in the processs of transferring the files via bluetooth, but any advice or at least a place to start for fixing the usb problems. I honestly have had no problems since updating to 2.2 and cannot think of any changes I have made to the computer either
bump can anyone help?
I wish someone would step in here as I am having the exact problem - Win 7 - 64 Pro. All of a sudden the desktop PC has stopped recognizing the Samsung Captivate. It wasn't always this way and I cannot figure what may have changed on the desktop to cause this (except for MSFT updates of course).

BUMP. I just used my home computer (windows xp) and reset my captivate, then rooted and flashed Andromeda. this is the first time i flashed a rom and everything, but everything went smoothly and I would like to try out other roms, but I am only home for 4 months out of the year
I USUALLY have my 64 bit Win 7 laptop, but it is still not recognizing my Captivate. I still cannot even mount it. If anyone can help it'd be greatly appreciated. I tried reinstalling captivate x64 drivers and tried samsung kies mini but no luck. can someone troubleshoot me or send me a step by step walkthrough. I am getting the same errors I have had earlier and like BillMc it wasn't always this way.
BUMP. I got the same issue and it is driving me nuts. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Open Device Manager, plug in your phone, and see what new devices pop up when you plug it in. Then uninstall all "devices" related to the Captivate.
Then unplug your phone and reinstall the captivate drivers pack. Then plug your phone back in and see if your computer sorts out the drivers correctly.
This fixed my issues. Try it.

Hello all, first time poster, but I have been lurking for a few days absorbing what I can. I just recently got my first Android phone, the Droid Turbo. So far I love it. I am trying to use the awesome Debloater tool I found elsewhere, but I have a problem. When ever I connect my Droid Turbo to a computer in my house (desktop or laptop), I get an error in device manager. Neither the standard Google ADB driver, or the Universal ADB drivers seem to be working. I am not stupid when it comes to computers, but am I missing something? I have uninstalled, restarted and reinstalled both drivers a few times, I even tried using the SDK to install Google's drivers as well. USB debugging is turned on. I can't seem to find any USB drivers for the Droid Turbo at the Motorola site listed with Google. The phone is new, running 4.4.4 KitKat. I am running Windows 7 x64 on my PC, a fairly fresh install. I'm really at a loss to figure out what is going on, any help or a point in the right direction would be greatly appreciated . I have already searched most of the relevant information and videos on this sight, but perhaps I missed something.
Please keep up the good work! My phone is just begging for a root/unlocked bootloader with a clean Android install, But I will settle for no bloatware for now.
I was going to include a screenshot of what I see with my phone plugged in, but I don't have enough posts yet. None of the options of "Update Driver" result in it working, its as if it sees my Droid Turbo there, but I just don't have correct the drivers for it, and I cant find the right ones.
Install drivers from motorola and select driver manualy, dont work with Windows XP

Ok ladies and gents,
I've been on a mission to root my Note 5 N920I for months now.
My problem is no computer will read/recognise the device. The Mac's seem to not even recognise it's plugged in, with Windows, no matter which driver I install it keeps telling me the "device descriptor failed blah blah blah". I managed to root my S4 very easily on Mac with Jodin3 so I know that it ain't no user error.
I've Googled and Googled ways to root without a computer or installing a custom recovery without root, but from what I understand I can't flash TWRP as recovery without a computer and therefore cannot root without a custom recovery.
I've Googled ways to fix the USB issue by making the xml file and putting it into the correct folder, but for that I need to be rooted. Right?
When she's plugged into a computer with USB debugging on or off nothing comes up in my notifications except for charging. I tried using the toolbox which I found on here (sorry can't remember the name) though it seemed like I was getting close, I couldn't get close enough before my temper got the better off me.
If my memory serves me correctly the OTG function worked when i first got the phone but didn't after the first update. My mate's Note 5 also has the same issue. I Googled it and seemed it was common issue on these phones.
I've tried to learn some Terminal/Command Prompt to see if I can fix it that way through Debian or whatever, only got as far as understanding it, kind of. Big ups to all you coders/programmers out there it really is an artform.
So PLZ PLZ can y'all help me, there has to be a way aside from setting this thing alight and getting a new phone.
My next mission, which I only embarked on a couple nights ago is unbricking my dad's Note 4 (N910G) that just hit the **** one day after spazzing out for a few days then would not turn on. I'm getting close though I haven't put much effort into that yet.
Any advice will be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance. ?
Anyone??

1)First of all have you enabled usb debugging and oem unlocking options enabled from developers options?
2)Install latest usb drivers for your model no on pc, use original usb cable to connect your phone
3) Try different usb hub-ports on your pc, it is recommended to use main-usb port to connect device properly which is mostly located backside of cpu cabinet
4)Does odin recognises ur device? If yes then you can flash twrp and cf autoroot both ( Sometimes Kies or smartswtich like programmes enforces device not be reognised, so uninstall them before trying to connect and flashing thorugh odin)
5)Try to update device drivers manually from Pc's administration
6) Try to connect your phone on another pc running windows and see if it recognises your device or not
I've tried all of that, i have a 09 Macbook Pro hand me down running Yosemite with Windows 8.1 Pro n just put Ubuntu on her today through Parallels. None of which recognise the phone being there.
I've plugged it into 2 HP PC's and both just keep telling "device descriptor failed". They're both kinda old too.
Unless someone has a specific driver they've made or found or could make me?? Clearly I'm a noob.
Closest I've found is https://github.com/452/USBHIDTerminal/wiki/How-to-enable-USB-host-API-support but still need root or system mounted as rw.
Any other ideas? Any ADB codes anyone could help me with ?
