i'm using window 7..

You said that you tried to root but quit.Hope you didnt try to root with a i9100 kernel on your i9100G cos i dont think they are compatible.Re-install the latest version of kies and if that doesnt work then re-flash your firmware and try again.

well... I have this problem before, me just trying using other port the problem was sloved... (tips: do you unlock you phone before connet to pc?)
Other answer from other forum
Fist:
I) restart you pc,
II) on you kies
III) turn off you phone
IV) connect to pc
V) got driver now?
if still cannot.. try
a) wipe data and cache on recovery mode,reboot and try connet to pc agian. (warning: make sure backup you phone fist)
Hope this will helping you xD

by the way.. i did tried to root my phone.. but end up failed.. so i cant do stuff like flashing.. those rooting step for is was too hard for me to understood..

To fix this problem (Your Windows 7 PC Not recognizing your Galaxy S2)
1: Try another USB Cable (my original cable doesn't work, a generic one I had does)
2: My Computer Properties - Device Manager - Uninstall EVERYTHING from the Universal Serial Bus controllers list, then restart. - This fixed the issue for me, my external keyboard and mouse stopped working but I'm using a laptop and once I restarted everything works fine
3: Update your phone's baseband radio (I was on XXKI1 and my PC would only recognize my phone when I was using VillainROM, nothing else, until I updated the radio to XXKI4).

tried too but isn't really working..

What root method did you try?

I think you can try by type
*#9090# and select "via UART"
then type
*#7284# and select "UART MODEM" and "USB PDA"
Connect your USB cable and it will auto download the new driver to your computer.
p/s: Need internet connection

sorry all.. finally fix the usb thingy.. i think the problem started with the update i download from samsung.. after i download the DZKJ2 firmware.. my pc unable to detect my phone.. now i switched back to DZKJ1 firmware and now its fixed.. though some function may lost but better than nothing.. thanks for your answer too

USB of LG O1 not getting Detected by PC

First of all I am a big-Noob.
My LG optimus one P-500 is in stock ROM.
My Problem :-
Earlier USB was working fine but now
when I plug it in to the AC Adapter it charges OK but when I plug it in to the USB after that it only charges and neither the Phone nor the PC recognizes the USB data connection.
I have tried
1) Power off the phone and remove the battery for a couple of seconds and power it back up, after doing this the USB does not connects. Not even recognised by PC or Phone
2) Device manager also does not detect anything.
3) Uninstalled modem driver and reinstalled USB driver but no result.
Please help
Thanks in advance
Cheers
Request again
Dear mates
I have really very high respect for the forum so please help me out.
ThanQ
Cheers
This happened to me twice before. I had to send it to LG's Service Center because I saw no way of fixing it since the computer wouldnt know what to do with it...
If you have custom recovery installed, you might be able to flash an original ROM over it. This wasn't an option for me before and it seemed like the only way to fix my phone. Don't take my word for it though. Try for the service center first if possible...
Did you try going to settings and choosing Mass Storage only?
Also, change the USB port of the cable with which you connect your phone (plug the cable in another one - try this with all ports if it doesn't work the first time)...
Before going to any service, do a backup and Factory Reset your device, then try again...
Oh, and disable LG modem from Device Manager after installing the USB drivers.

"Also, change the USB port of the cable with which you connect your phone (plug the cable in another one - try this with all ports if it doesn't work the first time)..."
Not helping either
Disabled LG modem from Device Manager after installing the USB drivers.
No use

I will try this definitely but going to service means 3-4 days without phone . really very scary .
thanks mate
anymore help
Okay , I did face this problem before and I did about hundreds of advice from my friends but this is the step that works.
I discovered that this happens when you do crazy **** on your sd card with applications such as titanium backup or root explorer. Curiousity kills the cat.
Firstly you need:
1) Usb Card Reader [Of course which suits with your sdcard]
2) Computer
Firstly, you want to dismount the sdcard from your phone and mount it to the USB Card Reader.
Connect the Usb Card Reader to your Computer.
You should be able to gain entry to the sdcard
Next,clear everything on your sd card then place your sd card on your phone back and do a factory reset. If you don't do a factory reset then you must do it all over again if you decided to connect the usb to the phone. After reset-ing the phone , try to connect your phone to the computer. Congratulations.
Note: This works for me but it doesn't meant that it will work for you , but I think that this is worth the try.

Ur phone charges through usb that means your phone usb port/usb cable is ok. Do this :
Uninstall the drivers, restart the pc and try connecting the phone again. Remember not to install the drivers again. Win7 save a dump of old drivers and i think it will auto detect it. Post results here.

Got exactly the same situation with USB(on different PCs) and also Emergency mode on every reboot(taking battery out for about an hour helps).
Did SD wipe though not sure about factory reset afterwards, gotta try it one more time...

Are you sure you are having the latest driver?
try this:
Code:
csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/client/app/B2CAppSetup.exe
install it,
(you may have to choose language from the last tab, 1st or 2nd option)
and choose P500 from "driver installation"
I didnt experience this issue but if i cant help im sorry.

None of the above methods worked on mine as well - same results on different cable(pc/os).
Will try to flash rooted original firmware via custom recovery, del custome recovery and root and send it to service.

Galaxy S2 no longer detected by computer via USB

As per the title, device manager doesn't change when I plug the phone in, tried two different computers and two different cables, flashed the stock firmware back, and still nothing.
It charges when I plug it in and SOMETIMES brings up the MTP-Initialization logo thing, but never gets any further.
Is my GS2 goosed yet again?
Edit: Tried on my PS3 as well and still charges, but won't ask to mount the SD card or anything, so I'm back to my trusty HTC HD2, wondering whether I should sell the GS2 once it's repaired and get a Galaxy Nexus...
Hah, another HD2 veteran, it's like everyone from the HD2 forum is now here... even the devs. Anyway, may be a stupid question, but are you always trying with the same USB cable?
Disable usb debug mode
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Tried two different cables as stated in my OP, and it doesn't matter whether USB Debugging is on or off. I'm taking it back to the service centre after work today, and I'm probably going to sell it after.
I've had the camera go.
I've had it not vibrating at all.
I've had problems with spots on the camera lens.
I think I'm going to put some money to the sale of it, and get a Galaxy Nexus, hopefully the built quality will be at least a little better...
Solution is in the phone
Dear All
Following are my observations and possible steps to
1. When the phone is upgraded to Android 2.3.4 and above (mine is 2.3.6) Kies stops recognizing the phones and USB connection / Serial port connections etc get reset on the phone
2. Even if proper drivers are there on the laptop (mine is Windows 7 64bit) they are not recognized
3. Device Manager shows "unknown device"
4. Updating the driver also does not result in any help
5. solution lies in the phone
a. key in the dialer *#7284#
b. it has 4 option there..
UART (MODEM/PDA)
USB (MODEM/PDA)
c. For USB. select the PDA.if it already selected to PDA. reselect it by select MODEM and then PDA again.. Only change the USB setting.. andthen press back. try reconnect (thanks to napi1 @ androidforums.com/samsung-galaxy-s2-international/447145-sgs2-kies-not-syncing-os-2-3-5-a.html#post3484588)

Hope this helps

Thanks a lot mate..I was afraid that i'll have to take it to service center. This helped me.
thanks people!...even i had upgraded to 2.3.6 and usb mode just wouldnt work....
this solved that problem though..
Fantastic tip!
It worked! Now my S2 can be detected by the PC.
Thanks a million!
Doing a factory reset after backing up data will solve the problems.
Still Hasn't worked for me. I'm getting no USB function other than Charge. Its working as if the USB isn't plugged in at all.
Is there anyway of reinstalling the MTP application on the phone? When i find it through App manager its showing with no size and no options inside (clear data or clear cache)
Kies isn't working as far as the phone is concerned there is no USB connection at all.
I know ICS is coming within a few days for GS2 owners, will this clear the problem???
So frustrating.
Thanks in advance if anybody can help

same with mine. mine still doesnt work with the dialer *#7284# and with debugging off or on. ive unistalled and reinstalled the driver serveral times and nothing and this has happened to me on my hero and my sgs2 dozens of times, its so annoying =[. at one point i manged to get all but the usb storage drivers installed. what else can i do ???
Same problem
Same problem here, tried everything (to my knowledge). Someone told me it had to do with the battery overheating because I had use the charger from another phone. For about 2 days my phone would go on vibrate randomly and started the connection process (like a usb cable was connected). It could do that non stop for a few hours. Now that Im back to my original charger, it stoped, but still can't connect to my pc.
I tried on 3 diff PCs with diff version of windows...
I've tried everythin, debug mode on/off, reinstalled Kies, drivers, did factory reset, but nothing.. when i try to connect my SGSII to Kies, it writes "Current connection mode not supported by Kies".. I'm on Lite'ning rom v2.2..
If you're running a custom rom, why would you want to use Kies ? It's awful. There are so many other apps that have the same functionality as Kies (tho granted not one app that does everything Kies does) that work perfectly with custom roms.
Only reason to use Kies would be if you went back to stock because you wanted official ICS OTA or similar IMHO.
I did a backup with Kies, now my all contacts, sms, videos, music, calendar are in this f***in' backup file.. :| I have an awfull headache Or i can do a restore with another app, will it be compatible with Kies's backup file?
same problem. USB connection to PC will only charge. Recently updated to 2.3.6.
Tricky one.
----------EDIT---------
it worked ok after rebooting my PC. Must just be general crapiness.

connection problem with odin and PC

I have a problem with connection my wife's ACE with ODIN / PC. I'll write you a few facts to help you in helping me.
I've flashed phone and rooted (odin detect it and I could also connect to the computer as mass storage).
Even after uploading the new firmware, I could copy some files to the phone.
And here is the biggest problem ... I do not know what happened but something started to go bad (crash with applications, root disappeared, there was an old version of the firmware - I have no idea as possible ... the phone uses the wife and children ).
I tried to clear the cash and fix permission - and in this operation, the phone has crashed.
I decided to flash it again.
I did all the cleaning and format factory.
And that was the end of my adventure - because when I want flashign, odin does not detect the phone. Phone is not not detected as a computer disk.
After a long time of connection by usb cable, Windows pop me up by standard error "encountered a problem installing your hardware ..." "one of the USB devices connected to the computer improvement may not work ...".
Checked on a desktop and laptop.
On both of these computers my other phone (SGS) works correctly and is detected - using the same cable (so cable and ports and drivers are ok).
Could you help me please?
Kies should install the drivers when you plug it in. But during flashing, you need to close kies.
It's not the issue. Drivers are work correctly because other phone is detected. Kies is close.

The problem started with 2 & 5 .
You probably flashed a new stock firmware , which caused root functionality to disappear .
In number 4 , fix permissions should only be used if a few system apps keeps force closing
In number 6 , factory reset isn't needed unless absolutely necessary
I'd recommend you to go to www.sammobile.com and download the firmware that you were using
Then flash it with ODIN
Emo,
but my only one problem is, that ODIN dosen't detect my ACE. So this is my main issue: what should I do, to reinstitiute a possibillity of detecting phone by odin / PC.

this is your problem. Uninstall your phone in Device Manager and install it properly by downloading the standalone USB driver for S5830. Google for it. This happened to me on Win XP. On Win 7, the native/vanilla USB drivers worked fine.

[Q] Help needed with USB Mass Storage problem

Morning all.
As of yesterday, my S2 won't connect to any pc in mass storage mode.
At first it connected as it should, but after about 5 minutes - before I'd transferred anything - I got a message that windows couldn't recognise the device/driver installation unsuccessful.
Since then I get this message immediately, have tried 4 different pcs.
Would seem the USB drivers are FUBAR somehow, but MTP via Kies works, as does Odin.
I've tried a full factory reset/reinstall, previous backups - stock and custom - removed, reinstalled and updated Kies, cleaned the USB port on the phone - nothing doing. Have tried stock kernels, Siyah, Nimphetamine - nothing. Currently on XWKL1, custom ROM (krinyo's SlimROM) with Siyah 2.6.3+
Also tried uninstalling various USB ports on my home pc, but stopped when I discovered it was the same on all pcs.
It's not the end of the world - I have bluetooth and my microSD - but it's a PITA and I'm out of ideas.
Many thanks for any help/suggestions.

Bugger me, it was the cable....
Bought a new S2 yesterday - nice to have a backup, and the Nexus is meh - and tried the new cable on old S2, everything fine. Old cable on new S2, no good for USB but fine for Kies and Odin as mentioned before.
No idea why it should be like this, but sh*t happens. Easiest solution is often the best!
same problem happened to me too
I have the exact same problem, tried everything like OP, even new cable still same issue...any ideas?

[Q] Mouting issues (MTP)

Hi guys!
I have a rooted international Galaxy S3 (i9300) phone with a custom rom: UltimaRom (version 8.x), and using XXELLA kernel (?) and XXELLA Modem version.
Since a while, I'm trying to manage the files in it (phone memory or sd card) from my computer, simply by using an USB cable (the one given with the phone or even other cables, it doesn't matter) and the standard MTP protocol, which is used by Google since Android 3.0. And, whatever I try to do, Windows doesn't seem to notice anything. In my device manager, nothing appears. Nothing either in the "My Computer" window, it just doesn't "exist". No reaction at all from Windows. The Phone's charging, but this is all it is.
And I have the same problem using another computer (like my own laptop, or my brother's one). All computers are running Windows 8 x64 Pro.
I tried to install, re install, delete, etc. all the phone drivers I have on this computer, tried to install Samsung Kies, tried some "mounting" apps on the Play Store, nothing's working.
What should I do to make it work?
Thanks a lot!
Might be stating the obvious but is your phone set at usb debugging? I have the same issue from time to time but when I unplug and plug back it fixes itself.
Hope you get your stuff fixed soon.

Hi guys!
I have a rooted international Galaxy S3 (i9300) phone with a custom rom: UltimaRom (version 8.x), and using XXELLA kernel (?) and XXELLA Modem version.
Since a while, I'm trying to manage the files in it (phone memory or sd card) from my computer, simply by using an USB cable (the one given with the phone or even other cables, it doesn't matter) and the standard MTP protocol, which is used by Google since Android 3.0. And, whatever I try to do, Windows doesn't seem to notice anything. In my device manager, nothing appears. Nothing either in the "My Computer" window, it just doesn't "exist". No reaction at all from Windows. The Phone's charging, but this is all it is.
And I have the same problem using another computer (like my own laptop, or my brother's one). All computers are running Windows 8 x64 Pro.
I tried to install, re install, delete, etc. all the phone drivers I have on this computer, tried to install Samsung Kies, tried some "mounting" apps on the Play Store, nothing's working.
What should I do to make it work?
Thanks a lot!

That's odd.. I use Ultima ROM and have updated to 8.1.1. I just checked just to make sure (my last update was done OTA) and yeah, computer recognized phone right away.. heard a little computer sound and everything. I am also running Windows 8
The base changed in v8. If you haven't done a fac reset since then you should try that.
Ok I just tried to make a factory reset, nothing changes...
Oh, and if that can help: when the phone's booting, Windows says "Unrecognized device". When it's booted up, it disapears.
Anyone ?
Drivers...
I used these drivers.
It worked for me...

Thanks for your help !
Unfortunately it didn't work for me.... :/
Any other ideas ?
Sorry to keep rising this thread but this issue is really annoying... :/
Up
I still have the same problem. No other ideas please ?

Does Easy UMS work?
Can you connect via adb?
Does Odin recognize the phone?
If no to all of the above, try a different cable / port

Thank you for your response !
- Easy UMS doesn't seem to work, even if the app doesn't show any error on the phone
- How do I connect via ADB ? I tried to connect the phone while it is in Download Mode, nothing appears on Windows or Odin
- As I said, in Download Mode, Odin doesn't seems to recognize anything...
And of course, I already tried to change the cable, the USB port, or even the computer i'm connecting the phone to...
Thanks again for your help
Starting to sound like a damaged micro USB port on the phone possibly, or a driver's problem
Oh, and there's a thing: when I reboot the phone, while the Samsung logo appears on the screen with the short jingle, the PC makes 3 or 4 times a sound like something has been plugged, and showes a "Unrecognized device" warning window. When the boot is finished, and the rom is loaded, everything just disappears and no sound is any longer made by the PC.
Also, please note that when I connect the phone to the PC (using the same PC, cable and USB port of course), the phone charges up just like before, without any problem.
have you tried the old drivers?
search Google for " Samsung USB drivers 1.4.6.0 "
disconnect your computer from the internet
Install the drivers.
don't reconnect to the internet.
connect your phone and let windows find the drivers
