So I followed the guide on getting ready to flash MUI, and saw I needed the nexus S drivers.
I downloaded the Andriod SDK, and then from there download the Google USB driver.
It put files in
c:\program files(x86)\Android\andriod-sdk\extras\google\usb-driver
I open up device manager and find SAMSUNG_android do a complete uninstall of drivers, and reboot system, but as soon as I plug phone back in, it pops up.
So I right click on SAMSUNG_andriod, and choose update driver, and manually browse to that folder above and every time it says:
Windows could not find driver software for your device.
I tried to even put back the original Samsung Drivers, but it keeps showing a yellow triangle in device manager.
Any ideas?
Thanks

I was trying to install PDANet yesterday onto my laptop, I follow all the isntructions during installation and allow the drivers to be installed. I choose Samsung as my phone. At one point it asks me to connect my phone to my PC, which I do. It proceeds to dl 4 things, 3 out of the 4 download and install fine, but the ADB Driver installation fails every time (this is windows downloading drivers, not the installation itself). I have tried finding ADB drivers on my own with little success.
to confirm before the question is asked, yes the USB debugging option is turned on. ADB driver just keeps failing to download and install using windows.
same issue with my HP laptop
Driver name is S3c6410 Android ADB
Need a little help here. I cannot get my phone to connect to my computer, I'm running Windows 7. I have kies installed and have also downloaded the drivers directly from the Samsung site, but still cannot connect. When I plug in, it says installing drivers, but then gives me an error.
If I go to Device Manager, I see SAMSUNG Mobile MTP Device but with the yellow exclamation mark. Under driver details it shows the correct driver installed, but has a Code 10 Error. "The Device cannot be started".
I've rebooted comp, rebooted phone, toggled USB debugging, uninstalled and reinstalled drivers, tried 2 different USB cables, and nothing is working. Anyone have any ideas?
I didn't have to do everything you listed to get it to work, but I did have to run the installer (T-Mobile_T999_GSIII_Samsung_USB_Driver_v1_4_6_0.exe) twice to get it to work.. it failed the first time.
I just unplugged and then plugged cable back in, ran the installer and installed again over old drivers.
You can also try going into Device Manager, right-click on the phone and "Update Driver Software" manually... installer extracts all drivers to the C:\Program Files\SAMSUNG\USB Drivers folder.
Still no luck. It installs the Samsung USB modem drivers fine and shows the phone correctly, but fails on the MTP Driver section.
Just for future reference for anyone that comes across this while searching. I did get this fixed. I tried a couple more usb cables and a friends computer with the same issues.
What I ended up doing was a factory reset on the phone. Plugged phone in after first boot and mtp drivers installed right away.
Hello,
This must be a dumb question because all the guides seem to skip over this part but I'm having trouble installing the Windows 7 drivers. I downloaded the drivers, connected via USB, right clicked on the Android 1.0 in the device manager and updated the drivers. Everything seemed fine. Then I boot into fastboot and get a "Drivers were not installed successfully" pop-up.
I thought maybe I messed up and was supposed to install the drivers while in fastboot rather than while the phone was all the way booted up. So I rebooted the phone, uninstalled the drivers, booted in fastboot and tried to install the drivers while in fastboot. When I try it this way I right click on Android 1.0 in the device manager, go to the update driver option, select my file (there are two files in the driver folder I downloaded, androidusb and htcrndis, I tried them both) and I get an error before it can finish installing the driver. It says:
Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error when trying to install it:
HTC Remote NDIS based Device
This device cannot start. (Code 10)
I'm sure it's something simple but I cant figure it out. Thanks for any help.
I have problems with Samsung drivers.
They didn't worked at Download Mode, so I thought if I'll delete it and reinstall,
It'll be fine.
But now my drivers all messed up, They don't work even on Regular mode of using android.
There are drivers are at:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Samsung\USB Drivers
and when I try to install it on the "Samsung Android USB Device" with the yellow sign using Device Manager,
I get "Data is invalid" error (ERROR_INVALID_DATA).
and I have 64 bit computer running Windows 8, and I have Galaxy Mini if it says something.
Please help me figure this out!

Follow my instructions with diligence.
Go get Autoruns from microsoft.
Run it as administrator and remove all drivers related to adb and samsung and android.
By right clicking and hitting delete.
Then restart pc.
Load up sammy drivers again.
Take battery out of phone.
Then put it back in and start download mode.
Try Odin to see if it finds your device.
If not, try Heimdall and the instructions they have.
Report back.
Ive been trying to root my device for over a month now, and i havent had any luck. Ive used different USB drivers software and Hardware. Ive used different cords from stock to the ones from my job and friends yet i still have failed to root it. ADB reconizes my device no problem when its booted up, but as soon as i boot into FASTBOOT mode my computer doesnt reconize the device. What am I doing wrong or am I doomed to have an unrooted device?
I had the same issue with windows Vista.
Grab the attached file. Unzip to wherever.
Plug your phone into the pc IN fastboot mode. Open Device Manager.
Find the messed up driver, usually indicated with a yellow symbol in the list.
Right click it and update driver. Don't let it auto search for one. Manually tell it where that driver is that you just unzipped. It will show a list and chose the android bootloader one. It will warn you stating it's not correct, ignore that warning.
If you need more detailed instructions just holla.
Peace.
Did you try fastboot commands when in the bootloader? Remember that adb is only for when the device is booted up normally. Just making sure...
Sent from my LG-H901 using XDA-Developers mobile app
open device manager, you will see the device with the yellow symbol, right click and select update driver software
after browse my computer for driver software --> let me pick from a list of device drivers in my pc --> android adb interface! . click on yes. this worked for me
