pc not recognising phone - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I think the usb port on my sgs2 is f***** It will send a charge to the phone, but will not recognise it.
I get error on my vista laptop as :
USB DEVICE NOT RECOGNIZED - One of the usb devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned, and windows does not recognize it. For assistance in solving this problem, click this message.
I have tried reinstalling usb drivers on kies and put in debugging mode etc. I had a problem with the phone not charging around christmas time, so I cleaned the usb port with a cocktail stick, that got the charge working, but it has not picked up usb mode since. So I cant connect usb storage or to ODIN, let alone KIES.
Does anyone have any advice/suggestions as to what I could try, I really dont want to send it back for repair and be handset less for a month!

I am Sure no problem with your mobile. May be problem with computer Hardware or Drivers.
can you try different USB port or you can different computer also.
If you dnt have another PC , uninstall all samsung drivers & kies and reboot the PC.
Just connect as USB storage . USB storage not require any special drivers.

Also use the original usb cable. I have two different cables and only original one works.

I have the same issue, if your not rooted just Send it for repair under warranty but if you are you'll have to flash a stock kernel to remove root first and use a jig to reset your flash counter

Had the same problem, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1425128my cable was the culprit.
Mobile Odin for flashing and Remote Web Desktop/Root explorer for SD access will tide you over.

Make sure:
The selection of AP/BP connection behavior
when connecting your phone (as a client), with a USB cable
to a PC host, is manually set in the PhoneUtil (PU) Menu.
This sets the behavior of your phone when connecting it
to a PC. You can select wether you like it to act as a
Modem or PDA, o via USB or UART port. The PU does not
seem available from the ServiceMode menu.

Install Kies .

Yup, I did. I removed cables and turned on USB debugging, and tried the mass storage mode, upon connecting it says cable connected and to remove.
I'm getting this problem once I'm in Download mode. It's worked before... why would it stop?
Any tips?
I have the same problem
I seem to have the same problem I connect my phone via USB and get a USB Device Not Recognized message but MTP application opens on the phone. This has only just happened I have had it working before since I had the phone on 2 computers and have tried to different cables now it does not work on either computer. If any one has had any luck I would love to know how you fixed it.
Samsung Galaxy S2 - USB Device not recognized.
Hey Guys,
I have the same problem. I've even tried going into "Recovery" Mode and then running odin.. Still no luck. It just does not recognize the phone.
I tried a different cable but still no luck.
Guys,
i had had the same problem until i started to use the original USB cable(came with the phone).
Have a good luck!

Got the same usb problem, different pc's, driver, cables nothing works.
After three month of use no Kies Odin ore mass storage us....big problem
any news info on this? seems to be quite common, though I only get it with stock roms, custom roms dont seem to have this issue
Cables Guy; I'm trying to figure out if I'm having the same problem as you. Does your phone charge when plugged in? Because mine does not.
i think in your case it might be the usb port in the phone itself, if nothing that you plug works well.
I believe there is an issue with kies/MTP and windows drivers for the rest though.
For me my phone doesnt get detected o nmy onboard USB but it does on the usb3 pccard i have.
any good news to solve this problems?
i got the same problem and worst case is my phone cannot detect sim
I had the same problem.. I just switched back to the original cable that came with the phone & problem was solved..

[Q] Any way to make the i9100 detected (usb)

Hi,
I have a 9100 that I try to make windows 7 x64 detect. I tried with the drivers and even with kies but the phone is simply not detected as if it was not connected with the usb cable. I played with debug on/off, and mount button but nothing worked.
I can charge the battery with the usb cable but cant xfer files, its only charging the pone, nothing else.
Any idea of what could be the problem ?
Install usb drivers via kies.

Hi,
I already done that, still no detection, its not even telling unknown device.
Just as any other windows hardware reboot phone reboot PC .
Boot phone set to USB mode in settings connect cable wait for windows to install drivers .
KIES tools Install driver .
That fails read all the other exact same posts for a solution .

It was the usb cable the problem. I changed it, now its working, thx for the help.

Chargin port its not working as a usb in the computer???

Hey guys today i got the samsung galaxy s2 gt-i9100 and the phone works fine but theres something weird happening and is that everytime i plug the phone to the computer it charges but it doesnt let me use the phone like a usb drive i cant acces my phone and in the notification bar it doesnt show the option to mount to usb, and if i put the phone in download mode odin does not recognize the device and everytime i plug the phone its says one of the usb devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned and windows does not recognize it.
Do you know what could it be? is this something than can be fix?
Before you can connect the phone via odin, you need to have the drivers installed. So first thing you need to do is have your computer detect the phone.
-See if the cable is working..if you have another cable, try your luck with that.
-clean the phone's USB port.
-try putting your phone into USB debuhging mode from the settings menu.
-Im assuming your still on stock. Dial *#7284# and on the USB option select PDA. This worked for me while I had trouble on stock.

[Q] Galaxy S2 GT-I9100 won't connect to PC via USB

I'm having an issue with my Samsung Galaxy S2 GT-I9100 (running on stock Jellybean 4.1.2) no longer connecting to the PC via USB. It had been working fine up until a few days ago.
When I connect the USB cable, it only charges the phone. It doesn't show that it is connected in MTP mode and no USB options appear in the pull down notification bar. I tried locating the phone on the computer in Windows Explorer and the Device Manager, but it wasn't there at all. There also wasn't any unrecognised device in the Device Manager.
I’ve tried the following:
Using different USB cables. Tried two official Samsung cables, a Belkin charge/sync cable and a generic cable
Plugging into different USB ports on 3 different PCs/notebooks (running on Windows 7/8)
Turning on/off USB debugging mode on the phone
Going into Settings>Wireless and networks>USB utilities. After tapping "Connect storage to USB", it will prompt to connect a USB cable even though it is already plugged in.
Booting the phone in safe mode and connecting the USB cable
Installing the latest version of KIES. I had never used the software before but gave it a try. KIES wouldn't detect the phone
Uninstalling and reinstalling the latest Samsung drivers
Dialling *#7284# for the PhoneUtil options and checking it was PDA mode under the USB option.
Turning off the phone, removing then re-inserting the SIM card and battery
Cleaning the micro USB port on the phone
I have not made any changes to the phone (or PCs), so I'm not sure what has happened for the USB connection to stop working.
Your assistance would be much appreciated.
That is very weird. Are sure you didn't change the USB connection type?

Definitely sure.
I'm wondering if maybe the micro usb port is damaged, even though there's no problems charging the phone.
That is very possible, the port can be damaged in a way that only allows charging.
Hey guys, My micro-usb was damaged so i changed it with a new one... It didn't work and phone was charging instead of Mass Storage or Debugging mode !
I thought its fake and a bad quality micro-usb so i changed it again and still have the same problem.
I have the same computer, same cable and everything is same, even the programs which i installed in both phone and pc are same, but it wont connect to pc.
My moms phone can be connected with my cable.
Ok, before i change the Micro-Usb, it was fine but not charging as good as normal. I mean at least i was able to upgrade or downgrade my android version )
Can anyone help me ? I already did a factory reset and removed the SD card. No lucks ... ( i also tried other cables and other computers, but the problem is ONLY with my damn phone )
I'm running Android 4.0.3 KH3

Have you connected the phone to the motherboard usb port and then installed kies then stopped the kies processes?. You can also uninstall the kies program while keeping the drivers.

No i havent. After i had installed kies with driver, i pluged in usb port. Nothing happened
Have the phone already connected so it can find it correctly..
If it still isn't detected by the computer, the USB port could be damaged.
