Can't connect to pc

Bought this Galaxy S yesterday
I cant get it to connect to my pc
i have done the following.
-installed and reinstalled Kies several times
-Installed and reinstalled drivers several times
-Tried 4 different usb cables
-Tried in USB debugging mode
My phone connects to the pc and then i get a message that my phone is not recognized (windows error 43)
The phone does charge . I have tried all of the options like Samsung Kies , Mass storage , Media player
Nothing seems to work when i select media player option the mpt application starts to crash , i have read on forums that if the mtp crashes i can just select mass storage mode but when i select mass storage mode my pc says device not recognized
When i checked the Build info it says on Kernel Version 2.6.29 [email protected] #4
Firmware version is 2.1-update-1
Build number is Eclair.XWJM2
Please help me with this , i thought maybe there if i flash everything but in order to flash it i need to connect it to my pc which is becoming impossible

I'm trying to see if the issue gets resolved after upgrading the firmware
My computer detects the phone but says there is something wrong with the device
So i guess Odin will also be unable to detect it

Well uninstall kies.. install the samsungs USB drivers and see if Odin detects your phone... and if it does flash the firmware of your choice

Are you absolutely sure that the guy sold it coz he WANTED to, & not coz he HAD to??
It's quite probable that he damaged it & then since can't fix it, so sold it away!
Anyway, Try factory reset!
If that doesn't work,
Use the Volume DOWN+Home+Power button combo to get into DOWNLOAD MODE, THEN see if the PC detects a device connected. With all those drivers, it should.
If it does, then you can go ahead & flash it using Odin, or EZOdin

I've got a micro sd card reader , cant i just load up files on the micro sd card and then update / flash it?

Need help guys!

I just got my Note last week. I am trying to sync my phone to laptop. But somehow, it gets stuck on "connecting". Any tips or other alternatives? Thanks in advance. I plan on rooting my phone. Thats why I need to back up my phone first. Thanks in advance!

What OS are you using? Did you install the USB drivers?

Windows. Yes I in stalled it. But somehow it says that its not properly installed. And problems may occur. I dont know the reason. I tried, reinstalling it, but still same problem. Can I sync it wirelessly?

Hi.
I had the same problem, but it worked after I unchecked the USB Debugging.
Regards

Your problem is most probably the usb debugging uncheck it and your phone is in kiesmode

Try uninstalling, downloading from the country website your phone is from. Or your csc is from. Download from the N7000 page kies. Then install and run as admin. If it doesnt connect perform the connection wizard, or connection troubleshooting. that will reinstall drivers. These steps work for me everytime.

already tried. But when i plug my note to my laptop, still same problem. It says that not installed properly. The USB debugging is already unchecked. What should I do now? Should I try it in another computer?

Do a software update over wifi for your phone and downdload the latest kies from official website.

Sorry if this is a stupid answer but I was having a lot of trouble connecting my note to the PC. I was using a cable I used for all my phones that worked fine. Someone told me to try it with the cable Samsung supplied and after that it all worked fine. I just thought it might be worth trying.

I am using the Kies usb. i already downloaded the Kies via the samsung website. And After I opened it, it says a newer version is available. So I updated. I also tried the Kies air, I can see the apps on my phone, but I seem cant find where is the sync button for me to make a back up for my phone. How do i use Kies wifi? Sorry again for these noob questions. First time to use android phones. Thanks again!

Kies wifi needs phone and computer to be on same router

Kies Air doesn't do that. The main (PC) KIES app does. But, even if you connect through KIES, it will only allow you to back up things like contacts, photos, ringtones etc. It won't be a full backup of your system.
What can help if KIES doesn't see your phone:
1. Installing the latest version of KIES (which you already did)
2. Making sure your phone is in the MTP (not USB memory) mode. It should be as a default, unless you actually click on "USB memory" button when connecting to PC
3. Unchecking "USB debugging"
4. Running the connection repair wizard in KIES (I have a local language version, so I don't know the exact English name) - this reinstalls drivers - and then connecting again.
5. Trying a different USB port or cable
6. Rebooting both the phone and computer
If all fails, then probably this is a problem with Windows drivers. Repairing this would require a bit of expertise and involves booting Windows in safe mode, checking which devices and drivers are actually installed and removing any that seem suspicious. If you have never done that, an easier option would be installing KIES on another computer and doing the backup there.
Theoretically, running the connection repair wizard in KIES should clean and reinstall the right drivers for your phone, but in practice this doesn't always work as it should.

Cannot connect my Note to computer?? Missing drivers!

Hey
First time having this issue...my note keeps telling me that I Need to download driver software. No CD came with my phone. I've uninstalled kies and reinstalled. Very weird I can't think why its not connecting. I'm trying to add a rom to flash but grrrrrrrrrr lol
UPDATE...I didn't open kies and it is installing driver! U would think it would do it automatically.

Okay that did not work at all. Kies installed driver again and my phone still does not connect to USB or kies???
I'm on paranoid android v5 with hydrocore kernal. All I want to do is add this jb cm10 rom so i can flash it.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA

try connection troubleshooting from within kies
without usb debugging in developers section of phone settings

Tried that and still does not connect a thing. It was working fine other day. I'm running a scan to see if I have a virus cause it makes no sence at all.

I had the same issue the other day.. when i tried to connect the note to pc.. the MTP driver was failing and neither pc or kies was detecting the phone... but this happened to me when once i changed the usb utilities setting to connect it as a mass storage device... it connected as mass storage but later it wouldnt connect as media device. tried all sort of things like reinstalling drivers , kies.. tried on a diff pc... still dont work...
later i concluded that it was the phone and did a nandroid backup and then it worked....

it can be many different things, trial and error, lol

Having the same problem with my note since updated kies 3 or 4 days ago. Read somewhere that using the solve connection problem from kies and then unppluging the pc from internet to connect de phone solves the problem though i didn't tried it. The problem is the new driver that came with the latest version of kies, shoud you get the previous drivers all with work again.

Hi @islandmixed,
You sir, are a LEGEND!!!!
Summit happened to my N7000 months ago... And for the life of me, I couldn't figure out what had happened... I went through everything, followed many guides, tried many PCs and nothing....
Apart from wiping the ROM and starting again (which I didnt want to do, as all is working fine otherwise) I was at a loss....
Your answer here was spot on, and now shows up in Windows again....
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!

USB mass storage problem

Hi guys,
I have a problem with my Note.
When I plug my phone to my computer, it doesn't recognize but it charged.
I have also install some applications like usb switcher, but it doesn't work anymore.
I have flashed some ROM too but it's the same problem.
I have changed my USB cable too.
I hope that it's not a hardware problem ...
If a someone have any solutions, help me please.
Thanks.
And sorry for my bad english I'm French.

Sounds like a driver issue.
Enable usb debuggin and reconnect.
If youre on a stock rom try changing from mtp to ...the other option.

I know that on the s3 theres a code you enter in the dailer and you can change some settings there on how your device connects eather that or your drivers on the pc got corrupt. Try reinstalling drivers and google that code maybe there is one for our phone.

I actually solved it.
You just go to Download Mode, connect to USB. It should install a driver. And then it'll be fixed.

so?no thanks button
