My S Advance I-9070 recently got formatted. I was able to recover my installed Apps, photos, music via gmail account. However Contacts which were on the phone, couldn't get restored. Since i have a contacts.spb recent copy, on my PC, tried to connect S Advance to this PC and it is not getting detected as additional device. The Samsung Kies software also doesn't recoganize the phone. Except that the phone battery gets charged when connected. I tried different cables and PCs, and took to a service center, this phone didn't get recognised. I have backed up all data to SD card on the phone. Is this a new issue with S Advance ?
Please help.

Try to turn USB debbuging on, and see if something shows up in Windows explorer.
If you are on JB: Settings> Developer Options> USB Debugging

Try this one
This is when your Samsung not popup usb notifier at phone upper menu bar.
Resolution
1. Unplug the USB cable
2. On the cell phone, dial the following number: *#7284#
Once the last # is hit, the PhoneUtil application is launched. Choose USB -> Modem and then USB -> PDA mode.
The good mode should be PDA. Even if the mode is PDA, switch to Modem and then back to PDA.
3. Plug the USB cable.
Try settings-more settings under wireless and network. There are 2 to try. Usb utilities if that does not work. Try turning kies on or off on the phone. No idea why but kies on the phone does it on both computers I use with my 9070. Drivers can be a real pain for this too. When i upgraded to LQG I had to update the drivers too, but that could be my computer too.

Hi everyone,
I have an AT&T Captivate SGH-i897 (2nd hand) and i can't mount the phone to my laptop (winXP 32bit). When i plug in the cable to the phone and then the PC i get the "device not recognized".I've donwloaded the Samsung drivers from the xda wiki page and extracted them and tried to update the driveres via Device Mng ,but didn't work.Also dl'ed the Samsung drivers 5.0.x instaled ,and still nothing.USB Debugging is on...
So to recap,my top can't recognize the phone('s internal sd card) so plz help ???????
Try this, go into usb settings and choose "mass storage"
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA Premium App
install kies
I would also recommend trying to fully uninstall all the drivers that associated on your pc with your phone (samsung or otherwise), and then reinstall the drivers before you plug in your phone. Then try to reconnect.
Just covering the basics. Assuming your phone is working correctly.
You have tried multiple USB ports on your computer, particularly those on the back if it's a desktop.
You have installed correct drivers (x86 or x64)
" for the correct operating system.
You have uninstalled the drivers before trying to reinstall.
You've tried to get Windows/ Mac to find them online (assuming you're using versions of OS that support doing that)
You've first tried Kies mini before full version, uninstalling in between. (Kies full version isn't supported for US, there are workarounds, but that's a different discussion)
On the phone you tell the phone to connect 'USB storage' (from the pull down menu after connected or in the settings)
I too am having problems with USB connectivity on a notebook with Win7/64. The usual failure mode is Windows not recognizing the USB device. I have followed ZBigT's basics, step by step and still cannot connect.
FWIW, my registry is awash with Samsung entries, some of which cannot be deleted.
I've even tried the AIO Toolbox application (to install the 64 bit drivers) to no avail.
Any other tips?

Yes. Still no love. Have tried:
usb_drivers_GalaxyS_x64
SGH-i897_Captivate_USB_Drivers_5_02_0_2
mini-KIES
Kies
AIO
uninstalling reinstalling each time
When I plug in the Captivate, any of 3 USB ports on the laptop, Windows gives the "Unrecognized Device..." message.
Go to settings/about phone. Look at the very bottom to see what rom you are running.

Paragon RC6.0
FWIW, I also have a Win7/64 desktop with the usb_drivers_GalaxyS_x64 installed and that works fine; can connect see "drives", use ODIN, adb commands etc.
It just the notebook, which I would like to be able to use to connect, especially when I travel, which has issues.

Check in program files for a Samsung folder. There may be remnants from old drivers that need to be manually deleted.

Thanks for sticking with this. I was able to connect. I as focused on the Registry remnants, but your advice to clear out the Samsung folder in Programs worked. Thank you.
Additional comments: I am now running the Dlev ROM, it's OK, but when I plugged in the USB cable, just to the phone, it launched the Alarm Clock app! So I deleted that.
Then on the first of my four USB ports I got a USB driver failure to install, then the Windows Unrecognized USB device on ports 2 & 3. On port 4 it worked. (This is a Lennovo/Thinkpad notebook.)
I used the usb_drivers_GalaxyS_x64 package as that also worked on my desktop.
Thank you very much.
That's me again
Ok, when I finally decided to upgrade my Tab thank to your help I discovered that the connection via the USB is not working at all !
I have Kies and obviously the drivers are installed.
When I connect the Tab to the PC i get the 3 options for choice:
1- Samsung Kies
2- Media player
3- Mass storage
When I choose the Kies option the Kies can't recognize and connect the Tab even after the troubleshooting process.
When I choose the mass storage and after the mount also nothing happen and there is no new drives in My Computer.
I tried to connect the Tab to PC with no drivers for Samsung at all and
strangely, the same effect.
There was no notification about new hardware connected to the PC and the question about installing drivers for that new discovered hardware ?!
I suspect that is some thing wrong with the cable although I can charge the Tab and some kind of recognition is established between the PC and the Tab.
Do you use any usb hubs or extentions? If yes.. don't use it. You have to connect your tab directly to the usb port on your pc with the original cable..
If you want go to connect as usb storage, you have to change the usb connectivity on your tab:
system settings > wireless and networks > USB > Connect to PC
If you want ODIN to recognize ur tab, you need to turn on the USB debugging mode:
System settings > applications > development > Check USB Debugging.
For kies, well.. it's always a little unreliable.
The USB cable is connected to the USB port on the mother board
The debugging option is checked
When I run Odin, the ID:COM window is empty.
That's means NO CONNECTION
OK, I solved the problem with new original USB cable
Suddenly this error has started to appear no matter on whichever system I connect. It was working fine the other night and I have always used this method for backup on my system.
Whenever I am trying to connect my Note to PC (for USB Mass Storage) I am getting an error "USB is connected. Remove the cable". I tried formatting USB storage, clear dalvik cache, wipe cache, factory reset, nandroid restore, enable / disable USB debugging, unmount SD, PC kies update, battery removal ... jut about everything but the error always persists.
On the other hand on all windows system (XP, Win7) it displays error "USB not recognized. One of the device malfunctioned". I tried reinstalling drivers, updates Kies but it is still the same.
Request all to kindly help. Thanks in advance.
PS: I am on GB 2.3.6 DDLB2 root+CWM

My OS version: ICS 4.0.4 Stock rom from Samsung. Phone is not rooted.
I am directly connecting to my Laptop (and not to USB hub) which is running Windows 7 Home premium.
hi, when Rocket Rom 7 (ics) came out, i installed it. after doing this, when i connected my phone to the pc, the system detects the phone as Samsung_android and shows 2 removable drives in the system. however, if you click on them they dont work
it no longer detects my phone as GT-N7000
what i have noticed: when i connect the usb cable, the phone doesnt show "MTP connection" anymore... instead, it shows USB connected.
what has been done:
flashed rocket rom 10, nogo
reinstalled kies: nogo
reinstalled win7 (yes i actually did that even tho testing on other pcs showed the same issue)
the phone still charges and the only way i can connect my phone to d pc to view files is by clicking "usb storage"
any advice on this?
Uninstall kies, and just install driver (find latest from toolbox on my signature)
use different USB port, and dont use any extensor cable to connect device.

hi bro... didnt work... i dont think its the driver... its the phone... coz i tested another note, its working fine
My Galaxy Tab has similar issues. I believe it would be due to the architechture of the ROM forcing you to have to mount your device to your computer before being able to load the Device Internal SD, and the External SD.
Click USB Storage when it shows, this should pop up a window which has a Lil android dude, and USB Storage Message with a button stating 'Turn on USB Storage'. After clicking it, you can click 'Turn Off USB Storage' to unmount the device.
thanx for that.. hehe.. i stumbled across it the other day.. at least i can transfer files... but just dont like the fact its not showing...

I once had a similar problem but in my case some usb drivers failed to install even though the device was detected.
Remove the battery from your phone leave it a minute or so then put it back and power your phone up.

Are you using Win7? Sometimes that "wannabe inteligent" system picks the wrong drivers. Make sure you have the drivers on your PC (i.e. install Kies first) thereafter connect your phone. If it doesnt show, check in the device manager of your PC, look for mobile device and reinstall the drivers (rightklick on mobile device). Go for a manual search and point it to the Kies directory werde the drivers are stored.
If it was working on a different PC, you may as well compare the installed drivers on both. Maybe you find a difference.
Hope that helps
Good luck
When I rooted mine I forgot to do this and had the same symptoms...
Restore USB Settings after Backup / Restore:
•Dial *#7284# on your phone to access PhoneUtil and select 'Qualcomm USB settings' at the bottom.
Now select 'MTP + ADB' and press 'OK' to return to the previous screen.
Now press your 'Back' key to exit PhoneUtil.
Your phone is now back to default USB operation.
