Hi guys
My Galaxy S is running on Darkys Rom v10.1 and its Dark Kernel. I never had problems with this but now I can't get a connection to my PC. When I plug it in it just loads the battery and my PC says that it can't detect the USB-gadget. There's not even a notification on my phone saying I have a connection to the PC.
I already re-installed Kies and the USB drivers a hundred times and even made a full factory reset on my phone but it's still not working.
Can anyone help?
Best regards beias
try installing drivers from here http://download2us.softpedia.com/dl...93/drivers/others/usb_drivers_GalaxyS_x64.zip
it is for x64, there you can also find for x86, worked for me just fine.
these are the drivers I installed again and again and again.. they always worked but there's still the error
have you knocked or dropped it recently?
could be a loose connection to your phone micro usb port, I am in a very similar situation and I'm cracking mine open tonight to check the insides.
Also could be the cable if you're not getting any notifications on your pc of it connecting, would try different cables too.

Anyone else getting this problem or know of a solution. I've updated USB drivers from both T-Mobile, Samsung and utilized Kies Express but still nothing.
Thank you in advance.

Is USB Debugging enabled?
W-7 will be automatic, with the drivers built in, but not vista. You will have to install them.

Sorry, should have mentioned this. Yep. I have. I've not been able to see it in either environment (currently running win7 on the machine I'm typing on). The last time I was able to see it was on an XP machine. Never on Vista and now on this new 7 box. I have also factory reset this as well but still nothing.

I have Win 7 and it wasn't automatic. I'm pretty sure you need to install them, either by installing Kies or just installing the Samsung drivers.

Made me LOL...
Turned it off. Connected to PC. Selected mass storage, then the option to mount. Then got the USB device not recognized message again as well as the option to look at the USB device properties which indicated the unknown device and to "replace the device if windows is unable to recognize" it. I also opened kies express which I also downloaded to load the most current drivers (for US). Still nothing.
If the wifi didn't work on it, I'd probably take this thing skeet shooting and use it as a clay pigeon, I'm that frustrated...
Deinstall all program including drivers and kies. Reboot and in system/config look if their is all cleaned so no Usb installed
Now reinstall kies.
On your tab in system connect to kies on connect and not to Usb.
Now connect tab to windows and only when no connect is fossiele then install usbdrivers.

Ok...completely uninstalled everything and checked the registry for any instances of Samsung to make sure all drivers are removed. The only difference now is that I couldn't find the link to Kies Express, so I'm just going to install standard Kies. Crossing my fingers.
The tablet shows connected to Kies when that is opened but when I close that and try to connect as USB and mount. I get the same error message about USB device not recognized. I also try to update the driver in system properties but get the same error that the device driver is up to date "unknown device".
Windows 7 is automatic. On the dialer type *#7284# and set usb to pda.
maybe your usb cord is fudged
Yeah, thats a good reminder. The aftermarket cords have caused a few temporary bricks.
Vista trouble
my experience is trouble to connect kies gtab while i'm having my portable hdd with my laptop
Oooh, thats a good point too. Disconnect those other usb devices when flashing your precious! And all usb ports are not created equal. Only one of the three on my laptop recognizes my tab in odin or heimdall.

I spent a couple of days trying to connect my Tab to a number of different OS's from XP up to Win7 on 3 different computers. Each time the dreaded message of "USB device not recognised" came up. The solution was so simple after all the frustration. Soon after purchasing the tablet, I bought a car charger which came with a connection cord. Looks the same as the original except without the the Samsung logo on the flat connector. As soon as I plugged in the original USB lead, voila! "Device is ready to use" message appeared.
Moral of the story. If you are having problems connecting your Tablet to a PC through USB..... make sure you are using the USB lead that came with the tablet.

Hello XDA developers / forum users,
Finaly I've buyed myself a (very) nice phone: The Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000 .
I'm really happy with it, but I've a smal problem with connecting my phone by USB to my Windows 7 64bit computer. I can't get it working.
Not with Kies, not with installing just the driver, nothing seems to help.
Hopefully someone overhere has had the same problem which has been solved already ......
I've searched your forum and also the internet for the solution and/or work arround, but couldn't find anything what helped.
I'm sorry when I've missed the topic on your forum, if so please post the link.
I hope someone can help me out with this isue,
Thanks in advance,
nldark

Read first few line of main post, you will find both 32/64 bit driver

Thanks dr.ketan for your reaction,
Unfortunately it's still not working ....
By the install procedure it says:
USB Device Not Recognized
One of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfuntioned, and windows does not recognize it. For assistance in solving this problem, click this message.
When I do this it will try to install again the driver, but it says that it has already the latest driver. Nothing helps, uninstall, reinstall.
In the device manager it shows up under Universal Serial Bus controllers as: Unknow device.
What else of suggestions do you have?
Any help would be apreciated .....
I had issues too. Sometimes it would take forever to find the driver and sometimes in errors out.
After you installed Kies. Go to device manager and find your Samsung device. Usually will have the yellow caution triangle next to it. Right click change drivers. Do not let Windows search. I don't know the exact wording off hand but you want to get to the point where windows will let you select from a list of devices. Scroll down to Samsung and select. That's what worked for me.
Hi there again,
With a samsung galaxy s, is connecting easy does it with my windows7 64bit computer.
So in my opinion it really has to do with the driver.
I have also tried to connect to a XP computer (with my note), what also works fine.
Does anyone have an idea?
Sent from my Samsung Note
Uninstall kies, Just reinstall isolated driver.
If you connecting device with Extension cable, remove it, N connect direct to USB slot of main board(back side)
once it recognise, you can reinstall kies.
I'm having problems with drivers too but with the bluetooth driver. My laptop can't recognize my Note's bluetooth. I was able to install the driver before but the problem came up when I reinstalled windows. I have windows 7 x64 home premium installed. I can send and receive files though after pairing, but I need to manually click the send and receive options in my computer unlike before where I can send and receive files automatically.
Thanks Dr. Ketan,
Since I put my USB cable at the backside from the computer it recognized my telephone
I tried this also with an USB extension cable, but as you said already this isn't working!
I tried also again the front USB connector, but with that connector my telephone won't still be recognized, so I buyed a long cable and will use from now on the back side USB connector!
Thanks again for the good work,
No Kies..... AAAAArrgghh
I read so many threads to disable USB debugging, reboot (with/without SIM/microSD), uninstalled all USB and BT from PC (W7-X64) uninstall/reinstall Kies, and still KIES gives me this message not to be able to connect to my N7000.
There was a little KIES update which started to ask for the right phone, but the N7000 was not even listed!. Took me an entire day!
What a nightmare! Al other phones I have used worked like a charm to connect and sync. Here I sit with a 500 Euro Galaxy Note which even does not have my contacts!
To add to this (it being an appropriate thread),
I have Note and win7/64 and connections was fine with Keis installed but not running i did not have any problems until last week, when suddenly i could not read the micro USB card nor copy files from the phone.
After much mucking about, deleting drivers and reloading etc, i stumbled across a thread somewhere that suggested unmounting then mounting the SD card.. this worked.
Note and windows 7 32-bit
it works perfectly with XP Pro (synching and note being recognized).
While I try to do the same thing with windows 7 (32 bit) I does not recognize the note (I have installed the driver from : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997)
I have dismounted and mounted back the microsd card. Still not recognized. It only says that the driver has been installed, that the usb connection is working fine but the note is not listed in device manager nor I can synch anything.
Any ideas?

reinstall kies then use a different usb port i too use win 7x64
I have uninstalled Kies wifi and disabled kies air. Which should I reinstall ?
I completely abandoned KIES as it is a nightmare.... for a few euro I bought something called Mobisynapse, which seems to do the job alright, although it is rather simple in its functionality.
(Unbelievable Samsung making nice products but this crappy s/w.)

Along the way I've had to play about with several things quite often to get the connection working. See: this (the whole thread discusses this sort of connection issues); in this thread several of the problems I posted turned out to be related to USB ports and drivers.
Basically the variables are, as far as I can see:
- on the device side, USB debugging (see this, third bit) and neighbouring posts, and USB connection mode (see above)
- and on the pc side first the USB drivers, which you have already downloaded. I can make a connection using both Kies drivers (though I tend to agree with Eira007 here about their temperamentality) and Samsung USB drivers. BUT they won't co-exist. I have two separate (multiboot) instances of Windows 7 with Kies on one and Samsung drivers on the other! And then on the PC side finally the USB port you use. The drivers won't work with just any USB port, "kieskeurig" I would almost be tempted to say (sorry, Dutch joke). Most people (as in this thread) stress the importance of using a USB port at the back of the computer. However, in my rooting quest (see above) I actually discovered that connection via a USB port at the back of the computer didn't work but that connection via a USB hub did. So my experience is that with these four variables it's very much a case of "your mileage may vary" as they say, although the experts definitely advise no hub or USB extension cable and a rear side USB port. I would advise you to play around with the variables until it suddenly, magically works, keeping in mind that you can't install Kies and ordinary Samsung drivers together. Also, when removing one driver and installing the other you have to do a very thorough deinstall first (remove all related files and registry references) and a clean reinstall, otherwise Windows will just say, as mentioned in this thread that "the latest drivers are already installed". Incidentally, with Kies the Note appears in Windows explorer as one device, but with Samsung drivers the two SD cards appear as two separate drives. Finally I found that Kies takes a good while to respond and recognise the Note, and sometimes you have to go through the "Troubleshoot device connection" procedure several times before Kies suddenly wakes up and finds the device. (I'm not 100% certain about the label on the button as I'm not on my sync PC at the moment.)

Thanks a million for pointing me to this. The reason I went to such lengths to keep Kies was because I couldn't find anything else that would sync my contacts, tasks and schedule with Outlook over USB. I'm going to check this out!
Guys,
I don't understand why we have to install Kies. With my laptop at home, Kies is not installed, it recognizes the phone (internal memory, and microsd) without any issues.
At the office I have Win 7 (32 bit), this is more recent than XP Pro however it does not work.
The Note should be detected without any softs (Kies etc)...
As I said, you don't have to install Kies, but your system does need drivers for the device, be they from Kies or wherever. Windows includes its own versions of lots of drivers, and it may be that your installation of Windows XP has drivers it at least "thinks" are the right ones for the device, whereas your installation of Windows 7 doesn't. And this wouldn't be the first time Windows 7 failed to do something that XP did OK.
I called the Samsung Benelux support yesterday. They told me to turn 2 features on in control panel/applications: Microsoft.NET Framework 3.5.1 (check 2 boxes). Then install Kies and then plug the usb cable. Tried it several times, does not work...
What do you need to do?
Kies = drivers + software to sync Note with PC (among other things);
Just drivers = if you (say) want to connect to your Note with PC Odin.
Kies indeed requires .NET framework if I remember correctly. But if you just need to "see" your Note's file system from the PC (like with PC Odin) then installing Kies is probably more trouble than it's worth.
Mobisynapse, suggested by Eira007 several posts ago, will also have to install drivers to work. I haven't got it yet as I'm still trying to get the website to accept my credit card.
Sorry to ask but what is PC Odin ? What does it do ? I just need my Win 7 laptop to see my Note. Currently it does not. I have tried with/without Kies and Mobisynapse. Still does not work. XP Pro sees my Note without any softs.
Ok, so I just got this samsung captivate and I want to root it. I can't get anywhere close to rooting it because when I plug it in via USB, windows doesn't do anything. I have my phone set to USB debugging and sometimes I have to unplug/replug the mini usb from the phone several times before it actually goes into "USB Debugging" mode. I have installed the necessary drivers but windows still does not acknowledge that I am even plugging in the phone via USB. I have tried downloading kies and that didn't work either. I don't think anything is going to work until I can make windows acknowledge that the USB device is even connected. I have also tried the *#7482# trick and it didn't help. Could it be another setting on my phone or something that is preventing my phone from connecting to my computer? It is really starting to agitate me because I want to get rid of all this crappy bloatware.
Maybe this stickied thread in the General forum can help... Captivate Connection Issues....

Turn USB debugging off and check if it sees it then...

Hello,
I'm more convinced that it's drivers problem, but my SIII Mini is giving no signals about connecting to PC while using USB cable, except it's just charging.
USB Debugging is obviously on.
Tried factory reset and installing few "versions" of Samsung usb drivers.
Don't have 2nd PC, nor 2nd cable, but cable was working with another phone (not samsung though).
I'm using Win7 x64.
Odin doesn't see anything either.
There's no SD card in my phone.
Rooting through app doesn't work.
Wifi connections (Kies/Ftp) does work, but i need that to be able to run/debug apps (i'd want to start to develop in Android) - if there was a chance to connect phone without using USB cable to Android Studio/Eclipse, then i could skip USB connection and use that instead. Emulators can't do all the jobs and are running slow on my PC + real phone means i can exactly know how app will work in the real usage.
Last times at reinstalling there was no such a thing, but when last time i've tried to connect my phone to pc and installed drivers few weeks ago, after installation finish, windows was showing in it's "drivers installation processes" that drivers installation failed, because "couldn't find the driver" (if i can remember, but that's what it said more or less).
Traditional question: have you an idea, what could be going wrong here? If need more informations, i can deliver.
