When I plug USB cable in my win64 device manager recognises the usb connection as "SAMSUNG Mobile USB Composite Device"
Kies automatically starts.
but Kies does not does not connect to my phone
nor does my phone show in "My computer"
If I enter storage mode then I can access SD card and external card.
of significant note is I recently did a full format and installed Check's Dark Knight Edition Rom (but I can't post there due to newb restrictions).
I have tried to reinstall drivers using Kies but that hasn't worked.
I have deleted the drivers from PC using device manager and allowed windows to reinstall them.
any help is greatly appreciated, thank you
I get no error messages
I've tried connecting with debug mode... it installs drivers but still computer doesn't recognise phone.
Still phone appears connected in device manager.
You have to close all open programs on your phone and return it to the home page. Until you do this your phone will not connect. You should then see a Usb Plug on your screen. It should then say Initializing and then connected. Then you should see it in My Computer and get into you phones files though there too.
Hope this Helps......
Thanks.. but I know about that and it isn't that.. also.. since installing LiteningRom this has not been necessary... but good call thank you.
I've tried to connect on a different computer and was unable to connect to that.. so possibly an issue with the phone?
Could it be that you have activated the "USB debugging" mode under settings->applications->development?
So I install Cognition S2 ROM and it works fine!

Nope not that.. I had turned debugging USB on and off a number of times in the hope it would do something.. but nope
Just to test this out...
I reinstall Check's Dark Knight Edition Rom and once again I cannot connect to my computer...
I will remove this rom, factory rest and install something else
I have noticed.. 2 extra drives appear in "my Computer"... I can't access them but they appear when I plug in my phone.. and disappear when I remove it
so clearly my external and internal cards phone SD cards are not being recognised correctly when using Check's Dark Knight Edition Rom...
any ideas?
and yes I have removed, deleted drivers numerous times... installed via Kies installed via auto Windows
ok... installed Cognition S2 ROM and connected to computer... it the phone says MPT - initialisation then MPT- connection it didn't say this with dark rom!
For anyone else having this issue, it seems to be related to MTP. MTP is present in cognition, and removed from Check's rom, you can easily add this back in to make it work.
I've done a search for this with the intention of reinstalling it..
but I cannot find anything... maybe my search is off or I'm not using the correct keyword.. any help here would be great.
Also.. as this seems to be removed from a number of ROMs I have a further question.. what is the alternative?
Thanks

Thanks.. but still what do ppl use to back up their phones? if they haven't got this installed?
Dizzee, I had the exact same problem as yours and solved it my removing "USB debugging" in settings, as Alchemius mentioned previously. Can you double check you've done this.

That happened to me once, I restarted my computer and it worked. I would also just tried another USB port after that
I've been having this problem for awhile. I've switched phones, computers
erased my sd. I don't know what the problem is.. Ive even bought a new usb cord. I'm going to buy a new sd card and try that. My computer says it doesn't recognize my phone. All I want is too put music on my card.. It worked so nice before the ota 2.1...i really appreciate your input.
It could be the drivers. See if it gives you the option to uninstall the drivers from Device Manager. Maybe you can add an ADB device. I forget how.
I have an Samsung GS2 and i'm happy, but i have a problem with Win 7 Ultimate X64:
After 2.3.4 update, when i try to copy something from/to Phone/Card, My computer stop responding and it shows the error: "A device attached to the system is not functioning " and the mobile is showing on display "synchronizing". I have reinstalled the Windows but the problem persists.
I tested on a Windows XP x86 and it works grate.
What can i do to fix this problem?
anyone know this problem?
Looks like a drivers problem to me, if you didnt already, try to reinstall latest version of Kies (but dont forget to kill the kies process before using Odin if you plan to use it)

I tryed to reinstall Kies and drivers but with no succes.
I have this problem too and i resolve it by turn the plane mode on, don't know why but now all is ok ..
Try this.
1. Go to settings --> wireless and network --> usb --> usb mass storage
2. connect the usb cable
3. turn the usb mass storage (the android icon changes to orange now)
Go to my computer and you will now see phone and sd card storage as seperate....you should be able to copy fine now.

Hello!
I know this topic is old but I had the same problem with my Galaxy Note this morning and the solution was to disable USB Debugging.
Just to at least mark this topic as solved.

I had this problem with my Galaxy Note 4. I was using the original USB cable which was supplied with the phone. The error was showing up at random stages of the file transfer process - sometimes near completion, sometimes after a second or so; which indicates to me that it may be a hardware problem. So, I then tried using a different USB cable (cheapie from eBay), and it works fine! No brainer fix :silly::silly:
Same issue here - bad cable again in my case. Got a decent quality one and it works fine.
This worked on my Note 4 - Simple Settings -> Developer opions -> Check USB Debugging
I keep getting a green Star appear in my notifications bar which keeps saying I need to download a battey upgrade but I dont know where it's coming from and how I get rid of it.
any suggestions
Thanks

Connection to PC
Hi, I have big problem with my phone. First, it is not problem with MTP driver! My computer dont recognize connected phone. When I connect phone to PC, phone start recharging and Initializing MTP, but PC doesnt do *TDN* sound. When I connect flash disk trough USB OTG to my phone - it work. Other Samsung connect to my PC works good. I cant connect phone in "USB mass storage" - doesnt work. So I think, it is software problem in phone.
I tried:
Instaling a lot of roms (only in CWM recovery), pull up battery for a few minutes, format memories, restore my efs file ( I had copy efs file), manualy instal kernel, tried USB debugging ON/OFF, instal manualy MTP driver, uninstal/instal kies
Sorry for my english, isnt good

You should probably have started a new thread instead of posting in someone else's, too.
Im so saaad! i think its all my fault.. i copied everything from my galaxy s2 storage over to my new xperia s.. and now it doesnt recognize the phone so i can transfer files..
what should i do ? please help!
btw the phone is just awesome! wauw!
I would also like to know how to properly mount the storage to a PC so that it is recognised as a Mass Storage Device rather than a MTP connection..?
Its so annoying not being able to see thumbnails of the pictures/videos you are trying to access..its also annoying that the PC has to spend time on downloading the files before playing rather than streaming straight from the storage.
Anyone have any ideas? plz..
Rather than starting a new thread I just used this one..thx in advance
When you connect the phone, on notification bar should say Internal storage connected. When you go to My Computer you should see Other section, where new device come up, called... Xperia S. Double click on it, so it goes to Internal storage. Again, double click and... you can see internal content. Hope it helps.
Same thing happened to me.... Today onwards time n again seeing a mtp driver failed issue when connecting to my win7 laptop. It wad working fine earlier. When I switch off n restart the device,it installs driver correctly and autoplay option comes up to open the xperia s device. However when I click on open folder, I dont see any folders in my xperia s phone. Hence no file transfer is possible. How can I get my phone working again?
I tried to do pc system restore... Since it was working yesterday...but that didnt solve the issue either. Any ideas?

Do you use different USB ports? Try to stick to only one. I still have XP and mine is always working, so this is definitely PC and windows issue.
I have a Win7 64bit Home Premium edition VAIO.
when I first got the phone, I could use it to connect to PC Companion. It would also show up as a storage device automatically, and using the same I had copied over music and pictures.
However, after 2 days of use, I noticed, my phone was no longer being identified as a device. Also, it gets a Code 10 - Device cannot be started error when I look into the driver details.
I tried to reinstall the MTP driver, but it never gets installed successfully. It always gives a driver failed to install error.code 10.
I can still connect my WD hard disk and other usb devices.
I saw somewhere in the Forum someone had described that I needed to uninstall and reinstall WMP to make this work. Didnt work
I downloaded the Windows DEK to ensure that all the drivers gets reinstalled, that didnt help either.
I also restored my laptop back to factory setting......still no luck with the fresh install.
So, here I am with a phone where I cant connect the device to move in OR out music/pictures etc.
The problems are:
1) MTP driver gives an error while installation. I tried to manually select the MTP USB driver and isntall it. That didnt work either.
2) When I connect SEUS, with the phone restarted by holding the volume button SEUS identifies the phone and shows me that there are no updates. Not sure if SEUS can be used for exploring the phone. Most probably NO.
3) PC companion tries to find the phone. It says it may take few minutes to identify the phone if it has lots of files. After that the operation fails suggesting that PC companion could not find the phone.
I restarted both the phone and my device several times......did not work.
I uninstalled the MTP and USB drivers and restarted and got them reinstalled........didn't work either.
Any idea on what needs to be done?
I have tried all the ports and a different USB cable as well.
I even tried changing settings of the usb port as described in the below link..
Nothing worked
Is it possible to get the Sony specific drivers from somewhere?
Hi has this problem been solved. I have two computers, the win 7 one installed fine but it refuses to work on the xp one.

I've got the same problem, but you can still use MyPhoneExplorer from
.fjsoft.at
to access your phones data. please also read the forum, because it needs an app on your phone too.
fjsoft.at/forum/viewtopic.php?t=11454
Also I've called with the xperia help line about a driver pack, but there aren't any lose available, exept what is in SEUS or PC Companion, but they don't work for me.
Can also some tell me if SEUS also will provide the new firmware 6.0.A.3.67? because SEUS tells me that my phone is uptodate, but I still have 6.0.A.3.62.
Install the latest version of media player, that worked for me.
Try connecting phone in Debug mode. On first time MTP driver installation will fail too but after that disconnect phone, disable Debug mode in phone and connect. Now it should working.
If will not working then go to Device manager on your PC, find "Mobile devices", select something with MTP in name, right click and choose "Uninstall". Disconnect phone, connect again and now it should working.
Worked for me!
Hurray! I fixed it on my computer WinXP sp3. I did everything with MTP bla bla winmedia11 even dev kit MTP = No fix.
go to Settings-> apps-> handle apps-> all-> MtpApp <open it.
Clear data and cache. (restart phone if you want)
plug the phone in USB and wait.. the scanner/camera thing comes up.
Right click on This computer (my computer?) chose "Handle" -> device manager -> scanners and printers-> right click on the "phone" -> settings -> device driver-> update.
Chose let windows search for XXX and voila MTP device driver found and installing.
(I'm using Swedish interface so the names of step might be wrong )
I can confirm that delete data / cache on MTP App indeed solved the problem. Thanks
I'm trying to root my friends' ATT SGS2 i777. on GB 2.3.6
When I connect it to the computer it won't recognize it and say the device has malfunctioned.
The phone says "MTP Initialization/Connected" when I want it to enable mass storage
The Latest Samsung Kies is installed, and the computer is up to date with drivers.
I've tried going to settings>Wireless and Networks>USB Utilities but it never really connects or mounts any SD
I've tried enabling USB Debugging but still not a mount or connection.
I've tried checking "Unknown Sources" and installing USB Mass Storage apk but it'll say an error parsing the package message.
I know what MTP is, but the phone only shows up on the computer as an unknown device.
From what I know, connecting and making sure the drivers are installed is the only way rooting this phone.
Please help with any suggestions, I know there is a way.
