Do you use a stock ROM or custom ROM?
Tried already with a other USB cable or USB port? Or on a other Computer?
If you use a custom ROM with Android 4.3 or above, you are able to switch between MTP and PTP in settings > storage, tap one time on menu button and you will see a USB option.
Alternative you can use WiFi direct to share/move/copy files between your phone and PC

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"

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:

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.

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.
When I connect the Note via USB to either Win7 32- or 64-bit, I get the empty folder "Galaxy Note" undrr My computer. The normal usb connection works fine but it's a hassle to always enter settings menu, connections, usb, connect, then plug in usb, connect again...

What rom you using??
Custom or stock??
Will be able to help you better!!
I had the same problem. Fixed it with a reinstallation of drivers.
1. Go to Control Panel>All Control Panel Items>System
2. Select Device Manager
3. Expand Portable Devices. You should see you GT-N7000 listed there.
4. Right-click on that and select uninstall.
5. Unplug you device from usb, wait a moment and re-connect.
Windows will now detect it as a new device and install the drivers. Let it do its work and you should now have your folders visible under the MTP device browser.
It Worked!

I struggled for days but was not able to find the correct solution. This simple thing worked, And now Kies working too!
By the way I am on Samsung S Plus GT-I9001 and OS is Win XP 64 bit prof edition.
Earlier Instead of GT-I9001, just MTP was visible in device manager. I uninstalled it, connected the phone again and then it was showing GT-I9001. My computer also showing same name folder with everything accessible and Kies working too now.
Please note that Kies is also working on a machine with Windows 7 64 bit Ultimate without any issue. So Kies is not to blame. This is for all those who like me used to think samsung had made such a bad software.
Thx mate I had the same pb with my SG3.. Now it works fine !!!
Just to complete : if on windows XP you don't even see your mtp device it's because you need at least windows media player 10 or 11
http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Media_Transfer_Protocol
Windows 7
Make sure that you do not remove "Windows Media Center" feature under Programs and Features in Control Panel on Windows 7. It will cause MTP to show up as empty!

Hi AEZ_BEST,
if i have understood well you actually have a stock rom (may be rooted) and htc_sync package installed on pc.
OK, trying this:
go there http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=950759 and download new version of 1-click root for tattoo (which occasionally you can use to easily root tattoo and install CWM recovery):
decompress dowloaded package into c:\rtatto folder
set tattoo to use ADB (android debug bridge) instead of mounting as a removable drive, it's possible but i not remember where the option is (sorry but two years and half that i not have stock rom installed ) and connect tattoo to pc [maybe it ask for ABD when you connect]
open cmd as administrator and issue these two commands
Code:
cd c:\rtatto
adb devices
it should reports you the list of attached devices
if your tattoo is in the list you can lately use adb to push the rom you wanna flash on sdcard.
Ops, i don't know if you have yet installed CWM recovery, if not look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27174485&postcount=129

Hi everybody,
I have a 64-bit PC with Windows 7 Ultimate Service Pack 1 and a Samsung Galaxy S Advance GT-I9070 with Android 4.1.2.
I can't install a driver in order to make Windows recognize correctly the phone when I connect it via USB cable.
I've installed and uninstalled Samsung Kies many times with no results. I've also tried some Samsung driver from Windows Update with no success...
When I connect the phone, it is recognized as a MTP Device and the driver installation starts, but always ends with an error, as shown in the attached screen-shot image.
What can I do?
Thank you very very much.
Note: in another PC with WinXP I have no problems.
Firstly make sure phone can run MTP (make sure if you delete MTP releated stuff in system you won't able connect it. Re-flash with Odin) Now if you don't have problem with phone then uninstall drivers & KIES from Windows. Don't just do a uninstall clear temp files, dll files, registry entries (you can use CCleaner) then install THIS DRIVERS.

Hello, thank you for your answer.
How can I make sure my phone can run MTP?
For the complete uninstall, is it enough to run CCleaner, uninstall Kies and then perform the Registry Cleaner in CCleaner?
Thank you

Did you root phone ? or installed a ROM or you just using it stock ?
I noticed something too; if you any have PIN or Password you have to unlock phone otherwise MTP not works. Unlock it and try too.
CCleaner will *probably* be enough but if you want to make sure go to regedit.exe and go to;
Code:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/
Then delete KIES & USB Driver stuff (don't delete system USB configs & drivers just Samsung's softwares )
EDIT: In start menu click to RUN (or whatever I don't now it's name in English, you're entering a text) Then write
Code:
%AppData%
Then delete KIES & Samsung folders and files.
I've just Updated the phone firmware from Android 2.3.6 to 4.1.2 with Samsung Kies on my WinXP PC.
I've deleted all Samsung Kies registry entries.
Now I'm going to install the driver you suggested...
Let me see results...

This may be a bit silly but is important to ask.
Was your PC connected connected to the internet while installing the drivers??
Did you unplug your phone while the drivers were being installed??

I've just tried to reboot the phone before connecting it to the PC, but I get the same error (see attachments).
Last year I managed to connect the phone to this PC, but, in any case the connection got interrupted after a while (see this thread).
I don't know what to do...
I had the same problem when i formatted my PC 2 days ago. I did some trial and error and it worked.
1. Dont use any USB Hub if you are using.
2. Remove the Pattern lock or any password security etc. Go to lock screen and select 'None'. (I dont know why but windows doesn't recognise if the device is locked)
3. Have Kies installed. Even new version worked for me. I used 2.5.13043_14
4.Connect your device with the USB cable (Should have MTP option selected which is by default)
5. Windows automatically recognises now and installs the necessary files.
P.S:- Remove the security pattern, etc. It really works.
If worked then pls reply.
Hello,
I've disable any screen lock on my phone and I've connected the USB cable to another USB port (a 3.0 USB port) and Windows magically recognized correctly the device! (no Kies installed, only drivers)
Anyway, after some minutes of usage (cut-paste of files). Windows stopped recognizing the device...
If I disconnect the phone and then connect it back, Windows still recognizes it, but I have few minutes until the device stops being recognized and no file on it can be read...

Did you download newest version of drivers? I see in your screenshot it says 2012, on mine it is 2014.

This is how my PC recognizes my phone. The driver seems to be old, but I've configured Windows for downloading drivers automatically and that is all it can do.
Today, th PC did not recognized the phone at once. Then I unmounted and mounted back the MicroSD card and the PC recognized it.
But, after few seconds of folder browsing, the PC lost the connection. I'm thinking that the problem is the SD card.
Solved!
Solved!
It was the USB cable.
I replaced it with an original one and now it works.
Thank you everybody for your effort!
I have rooted Redmi-4A. I have supersu 2.79. My MIUI version is MIUI Global 8.2 | Stable 8.2.1.0 (MCCMIDL).
My USB debugging option is enabled.
I tried the following android applications but failed to get access to the MTP file transfer mode through my phone to PC.
1. MTP enabler Release 3.3
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-mtp-enbaler-t3263467
2. QCustomShortcut application
3. MIUI Usb settings
I can select the MTP mode easily in the phone using the default method and the 3rd party apps that I listed above but my PC does not detect my phone. The ADB drivers are installed on my PC. However, my PC detects insertion of USB device and shows a notification upon insertion and taking out of USB cable connected to the phone.
I tried using MI PC suite and it also is not detecting my phone.
Have you tried installing the USB drivers? USB driver is NOT the same as the ADB driver. Google "Redmi 4A driver" and install the USB drivers.

You can easily create a bootable Ubuntu USB and test the phone in the live session (i.e. without installing it).
I am currently getting that error with my phone. Not sure but it could happen because of the computer. I have two os in my computer. Win10 and Linux mint. Win10 can detect my phone without an issue but mint not. With usb debugging on I can use adb in linux but still no file sharing.

Yes and no I mean both. Got same issue in different times with different phones. When the time I use crunchbang I would able to fix it. (by installing things on crunchbang not on the phone). But this time, I did not try to fix actually. I am connecting my not rooted phone only for android studio. It detects it. I can install my apps and can test them. But I cant see my phone in file manager. Thats the story.
the same thing is happening to my wife's rooted 4a and her sisters unrooted one
the same for my not rooted one, I've seen my phone one day in windows 10 explorer (this day it makes 10 seconds to see and when reconnected I could see it one time over 2), but the next day nothing more, I spent hours to try fixing it and have a few computers (all with windows 10), I think it's a miui problem not letting windows acces to the storage.
I have a part of a solution, have ejected my sandisk 64GB SD card, found it was formatted in exFat, empty it in windows, put it back in redmi, after redmi search errors I clicked on the notification and saw a few remaining folders and files, so I went to storage to format the sd card, after this the sd card (and only it) was visible in Windows explorer, but only in MTP (without usb debugging), but the copy from the PC is a kind of erratic (drag and drop 1 folder full of subfolders and files is ok but selection of 10GB gb folders and files to copy stops after the first file copied...), I don't understand how one day I manage to see correctly internal storage and sd card...
edit: today I can see the sd card as empty in windows explorer despite of properties shows it is not, and impossible to copy anything...
So i use now a turnaround, I tried airdroid but device folders were shown as sd card(?), but tried another app "gestionnaire de fichiers" flashlight + clock which can activate ftp service (edit: I have seen after that file explorer from miui could, but it hangs before I found the soulution)
so I type on chrome ftp://192.168.0.45:1234 (1234 is the port number you can choose) with the phone on my box with wifi and all (device ssytem androïd too) is accessible (but to copy to the sd card I would have to use a ftp client).
EDIT: Eureka! I uncheck the fictive sd card optimisation (optimisation de la carte sd fictive in french) option in developper's options and all is ok.
---------- Post added at 05:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:22 PM ----------
So for me to access both sd card and internal device memory in USB in Windows 10 for my not rooted xiaomi 4A miui global miui 9 global 8.1.11 beta android 7.1.2N2G47H
I had to:
-activate developper's mode (7 taps on Miui version)
to activate debugging usb (seems better)
-unactivate fictive sd card optimisation (windows and airdroid do not understand internal memory like a sd)
-format the sd card in the phone (in stockage menu, delete the sd card)
using the MPT mode seems the better option (in "selectionner la configuration usb" in french in developper's mode options) or with the notification when usb is connected.
For me Adb drivers were ok.
And there was a problem with file explorer that hangs when "fictive sd card optimisation" was activated, so even redmi can't access to sd card when this option is on...
