Verizon N960U (in file transfer mode)
Windows 10
Device Manager can't seem to find a proper USB driver. The phone just shows up as "MTP". I've tried manually installing a couple different ones, nothing seems to work. USB Debugging is on.
Any ideas?
Try uninstalling the drivers windows thinks it should use and try again

I've searched and tried everything I found but my phone just can't be read as a Mass Storage Device....which means I can't transfer any files.
When I plug the phone in the USB debugging icon shows up on the phone but the option to transfer files isn't there. And on the computer it says USB Device not recognized and it's listed as an Unknown Device.
What I've tried so far is uninstalling the driver completely and plugging the phone back in....some sort of software automatically installs itself whenever I do this. However it still doesn't fix the problem. Also, I've downloaded some drivers from the internet but when I try to "Install driver from specific location" and direct it to the folder, it says there was no updated drivers found.

Hi,
I have rooted my Captivate and now I cant get the device to be recognized in windows 7 (64-bit)
I have tried installing the "SGH-i897_Captivate_USB_Drivers_5_02_0_2" drivers for Win 7 (64-bit); enabled USB debugging on the phone and also selected USB Connected menu to copy files from/to the computer. The PC is able to recognize that a USB device is plugged in but detects it as a Unknown device.
When I manually attempt to install the drivers from device manager, it detects the device as for "Samsung Android USB Composite Device" but ends up saying that the device cannot be started (Code 10).
I have also tried plugging it into a different USB port just to check off a problem with the port.
Appreciate any pointers regarding this.
Thanks
Issue exists with WinXP
Update: I just tried the same on my WinXP (32bit) laptop and still the same issue. This is driving me nuts!
Check the port on your phone and make sure your cable is fully seated. I had an issue once with mine doing the same thing but it was just my cable getting caught on the little slide protector.

I did move it to a different port and also as I mentioned above tried it on a different PC. Both have the same problem.
Have you tried the galaxyS drivers?
Grr I cant put links in here for the wiki where its locked.
I installed the "usb_drivers_GalaxyS_x64" drivers and plugged in the phone. It recognized the device correctly and I am able to see the phone in Explorer. I didnt have to enable USB debugging as well.
Thanks for help.
Glad it worked. Watch out for the keys program as well. It we over write the drivers with ones that dont work.
Hi everyone,

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.

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.
For the past week I've been trying solution after solution found from the net to try and get my HTC One to connect to my computer and show up as a portable device. I'm running Windows 7 x64 SP1 with all updates possible, latest drivers and chipset drivers and even installed optional drivers to try and fix the problem. I've tried USB Debugging and nothing happens, tried uninstalling all drivers from USB device manager and reinstalling which also didn't work, tried installing MTP drivers seperatly, nothing happens, tried windows update's htc drivers, they fail to install every time.
My problem in short is, I cannot get my device to connect to the computer so I can use the storage space to add/remove/edit files on my phone.
I've recently tried a program called "DoubleTwist" which actually got the HTC Sync Manager to recognise my phone, but even that shows no storage available.
My details:
Windows 7 SP1 x64 PC,
HTC One in metallic blue 32GB,
HTC MTP Device Drivers Failed
MTP USB Device Drivers Failed x3
Developer unlocked,
USB Debugging On/Off
I can edit in any additional details required.

Umh, connect the phone at the pc, go to Device Manager (windows logo + x -> device manager), and unistall all the voice about the one.
After go to the control panel, and unistall the htc driver from here.
Now, install HTC sync.
For me and other friend worked.
I've tried uninstalling the failed drivers but they still fail every time i plug the device in, It's not really a problem with htc sync manager as I've pretty much given up on that already. My problem is that I can't get my computer to recognize my device, only as a cd drive which is for the installation of htc sync manager and and relevant drivers.
I've tried your solution 5 times before and it doesn't fix the issue as it's the drivers failing to install and the fact it won't accept drivers for my usb device for MTP or pretty much anything related to my device.
Anyone know of away to remove the bad drivers and install fresh working ones without crippling the use of my mouse and keyboard? because windows suggests I remove the usb host controller drivers which kills the use of all usb ports on my computer, meaning i have to replug them in turn re-installing the usb host controller drivers at the same time.
still got the problem of not being able to connect my device and have it recognized, by the computer as mass storage, removable storage, or MTP. that is the real problem I'm trying to fix, after that I may consider trying to get htc sync manager to work.
Any help at all would be nice... Anyone?
I guess my problem is unfix-able then, just to make it clear, i don't give a stuff about the sync manager, i just want to be able to have my computer recognize my phone so i can access it through my computer...

Got the exact same problem, work PC won't recognise the device. Haven't tried home just yet as this is the first it has occurred. Software update a couple days ago.
Called HTC - no dice, they keep saying install HTC Sync and the drivers.
Anyone else come across this issue/have a solution?
I posted in a different thread, but let me sum up again.
I had a couple of people reporting this issue on Win7 - phone connected to USB, came up as android device with exclamation mark in Device Manager. It really made me think what could have happened, because it was working a week before. I tried different cable, different drivers and realized it was something wrong, when even my phone was not recognized on my friend's PC, yet both of the phones (mine & his) were recognized on my notebook with all the cables and config.
It turned out, that he installed malware stuff and the culprit was iLivid and his friends. It blocked the usb connection somehow. After running Malwarebytes in safe mode, which removed a tons of sh*t, everything worked again.
Issue
So when connecting this phone to my w10 computer it connects, disconnects, connects, disconnects in a loop.
It connects OK to other computers so the issue is this computer.
What I have tried
I have used USBDeview to see which drivers are being loaded and the issue stops if I disable the Samsung USB Composite driver.
I have tried to remove re-install the driver (downloaded from Samsung), uninstall the driver (add/remove programs) and also via PNPUtil.
I tried using USBOblivion to remove old USB drivers.
After removing/uninstalling drivers and rebooting the result is always the same.
If anyone has some ideas/tips/advice I would be grateful. Thanks!
Look for the oemNNN.inf and oemNNN.CAT files that are causing the conflict and remove them.
