Hi all!
I'm having a weird issue and I was hoping someone could help. My Samsung Note (att ver) when connected to my PC (USB file transfer/debug) will randomly disconnect after a minute or 2.
Let me also throw a few things out there. 1) I had an atrix prior to this and didn't have this issue. 2) I did download and install the samsung usb drivers. 3) I have tried all the ports on my pc (desktop, USB 2.0 (4 different ports)).
I can run odin fine but when doing something like just connecting let alone ADB (can't even get the connection to last long enough to push anything) I get the initial connection and can see my phone fine (files...whatnot) but then like i said a minute or 2 later....It just drops connection as if it was never there. I unplug, replug get the connection again and boom gone again...
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Are you connecting it through the MTP connection?
try going to Settings>Wireless and Network>Usb Utilities
try that instead
Solved
I think all this happens because of Kies software. It's a monster, I will never use it any more. Even uninstlling may not help. Better use MobilEdit instead.
Anyway, I found solution in registry. So, try this:
Before starting, disconnect all usb devices from PC
1. Open Windows registry editor
2. Open key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet002\Enum\USB
3. Press CTRL+F and search in data value your device name (egz. Samsung)
4. Delete all key branches with name started: Vid_*** where your device will be found (You may have to enable permissions first).
Reconnect device. That's all
Not sure all because of Kies. Fact is that Android USB modem driver conflicting with Android ADB driver. Try to update them or simple disable USB modem driver.
One more possible solution is just connecting device to another usb port, however it helps not for long time.

Yeah, so i've read plenty of topics about USB problems, but none gave me the
anserw.
I'm running Villain ROM 3.0. I just cant connect my phone to the computer (Mac).
It work well before also after flashing Villain.
What i tried:
1. connecting my phone without usb debuging ->phone gives the sound and report in the notification bar : "MTP - initializing" then "USB Connected, MTP-connected" But it does not gives a connection with my mac.
2. Connecting my phone with usb debuging ->phone gives the sound, but nothing happens. nothing in the notification bar neither on the computer. It's strange becouse before it was making the same sound and giving me the info in the notification to connect.
3. I've also tried KIES air it works fine. i can see my phone content, but when im trying to send one file (130mb) there is no reaction to this.
Also some time ago i was able to get usb working by simply choosing usb debuging and restarting phone.
But now i have no acces to my storage
Please help
I have a similar problem.
When I connect my SGSII to my PC (with USB Debugging On) I see 2 Removable Drives in Windows' Explorer. If I click on either one I get the "Please Insert Disk". If I connect to the same USB with USB Debugging off, then Kies Starts but does not connect.
Now the weird bit, if I do the same thing in the next USB port, then everything works fine.
Going back to the first USB slot then the problem reappears.
The 2 USB slots are next to each other and go back to the same controller on the motherboard. I have removed Kies and reinstalled Kies. I have uninstalled all the drivers. I have even changed the USB cable. When I plug a USB External Hard Drive into either USB, it works fine.
Maybe the phone just likes the one connection per computer. I'll have to test that out in my work's PC.
Update:
managed to get a microUSB cable and tested it on my work's PC. Exact same situation. Both PCs run Windows XPpro.
Has anyone else noticed this?
Now, when you said that, i checked with my second usb por, and everything works fine .
So thanks for your help. One working with sgs2 usb port is enought for me
So when i try to connect my galaxy to the computer nothing happens. i plug it in and it will start to charge but the phone will not have recognized the fact that it is connected to the computer and the computer doesnt even say "unrecognized device" how do i get the phone and omputer to recognize each other?
Did you install drivers for the phone? What operating system are you on?
yes i have. ive tried both osx and windows 7 and i have made sure to download teh drivers for each
Have you tried to connect it in usb debugging mode? (goto settings, applications, devlopment, check debugging mode?
(I dont know of it will help, but it would be the next thing I would try)
And try different usb ports. I have heard before that it can help.
yeah ive tried all of that it and still nothing, the switching usb ports too
Did you restart the computer after you installed drivers?
I would try installing Samsung Kies (from samsung website, GS2 support page). It also installs drivers and fixed a problem I had with connection.
If all these don't work, I don't know what to tell you. Sorry. I am sure someone here with more experience will be able to help.
yeah haha ive done all of these unfortunately and still nothing, thank you for you suggestions though
Kies had an update within the hour of New years (Pacific).
I discovered this morning that USB debugging mode MUST BE OFF for Kies to recognize and connect to the phone. I'm currently backing up my device in this mode right now.
"Kies Air" also works well, without having to worry about any USB issues.
"Droid Explorer" connects fine with debugging turned on. I have to wait until backup is complete to see if it works with debugging turned off.
I'm having USB port issues right now, so your mileage may vary.
Hope this helps.
I have tried multiple times to install the USB drivers for my Optimus T (LGP509TN) running CyanogenMod 7.1 (6.5.8). I've tried installing, uninstalling - tried using the LGmobile agent to install... 5 of the 7 install fine but the LGE Android Platform USB modem and the USB Mass Storage Device fail. (see attached image called "usb installation")
When I turn on USB tethering, another USB installation routine runs and fails. (see attached image called "after turning on USB tethering". In Device Manager, I get a bunch of exclamation marks. (see attached image called "Device Manager".
USB storage actually will work - but takes a long time to kick in - and often crashes. Same with USB tethering. I've tried numerous different USB cables so that's not an issue.
Although I have an LGP509TN, I'm not sure if I should be installing LG509 drivers or LGP500 (as I'm running CyanogenMod 7.1 for LGP500). I'm not sure if there actually is a difference between the two. I've tried both and get the same issue.
Any direction would be sincerely appreciated.
Thanks,
Dave
Hi ,
I am also finding same problem. installed cyanogenmod
I took back up in ROm manager but not in recovery mod.
LGE android USB Modem fails to install.
Rest things are installing and working fine.
Help me out if you have found the soultion.
For you what i suggest is.
1. uninstall LG united drivers through control panel.
2. Re install it and turn on USB Debugging mode in your phone and connect it.
Everything will get installed. But not sure of LGE Android USB MOdem. IF you get soultion let me know even
I've tried everything that's been suggested. I've tried many different versions of drivers. Uninstalled, reinstalled.... Sometimes I'm even getting the Blue Screen of Death on my laptop when trying to connect the phone using USB. Wireless tether continues to work flawlessly. It's simply the USB connection that doesn't seem to want to cooperate.
I'm starting to think it might be a hardware issue - except that everything else with the phone works perfectly. I'm also going to buy a couple of new USB cables to try to determine if it might be a faulty cable.
1. Turn on USB Debugging mode
2. Connect USB
3. Then drivers stopped installing, turn off USB Debugging mode, but do not disconnect usb cable.
4. It will install some drivers and says all OK
5. Turn on USB Debugging mode (do not disconnect usb cable), and all drivers will be installed.
This is my method, and it worked for me.
Thanks for the instructions. The challenge I face is that the 2 devices never complete. (See screenshot.) If I close the dialogue, it tells me of the failure. When I switch on USB Debugging, it doesn't connect.

Experiencing similar problems with getting the USB drivers required for native tethering installed successfully. Running Windows 7. A walkthrough of clearing any existing drivers then reinstalling the proper ones might help. I've tried uninstalling via the control panel, system, devices area, but a complete purge/deletion of the drivers might be needed. Any pointers to a proven way to do so would be appreciated.
dude this happens to me week ago
first tell me are you running .32 kernals ??
if yes then flash it once aganin
or use .35 kernals it's best for cm7 series
Hello xda users,
I'm having a really strange problem. When copying files from my PC to my phone (be it the internal storage or the SD card) the window that shows the transfer process just hangs and nothing happens. Example: see transferhang.png from attachments (sorry, can't post links yet)
After leaving it "copy" for a while I get this error:
see cannotcopy.png from attachments. (The error says: Cannot copy item: the device has either stopped responding or has been disconnected.)
I am running Windows 7. My Galaxy SII is rooted and I am running the MIUI rom. I have searched around and have found no working solution.
However, if I change the USB port from the front of the PC (USB 2.0) to the back (USB 3.0) I can transfer small files like photos but larger ones (like 150MB for example) hang up.
Copying files from the phone to the PC, however, works. I find this whole thing really strange.
If anyone has any idea as to how to fix this please tell me.
Did you try the same thing on another computer?
Did you try to change the use cable?

Tried it on another computer, same thing.
Haven't tried another cable, don't have one.
Did you face the same problem before the MIUI rom? Sometimes the ROM could cause the problem

Running stock android (4.1.2) I did not experience the same problems, but I had other issues.
While on stock 4.1.2 my computer couldn't detect my device for some reason. It always failed to install the drivers and the "Troubleshoot connection issue" option in Kies did nothing. Every time I connected my device to the PC I got a "Device not recognized..." pop-up. I was able to get my PC to detect the phone but I had to do really strange things (strange as in I have no clue why it works) and it didn't always work.
What I did to get my PC to connect to my phone was:
1. Open settings
2. Go to USB options
3. Choose "Mount USB storage" (most likely not worded this way)
4. Connect my phone to the PC
5. Get a "Device not recognized" error
6. Go to developer options -> Enable USB debugging
7. Boom, it works. (but as I said not 100% of the time)
While doing all of this I had Kies running, otherwise the method doesn't yield anything.
I tried just enabling USB debugging and connecting the phone, but it didn't work that way. For some reason the only way to get it working was to mount the USB storage and enable USB debugging after that, all the while running Kies on my PC.

Currrently Im using Neat ROM for my GS2. I have kies totally uninstalled. I plugin my phone to the pc and it recogonized it. I have the USB debuggin set on. You can try to install another ROM tho, and make a full wip etc. I cant tell u that getting a new ROM will 100% solve your problem, but you can give it a try tho.
/Amiroslo
I have tried doing a full wipe and it doesn't help.
The only roms I have tried are stock 4.1.2 and MIUI.
I can't tell whether it's a Windows problem or a problem with my phone.
Try new stuff
Either
Try a new Rom, stock or aosp or aokp
update your usb drivers, just google and you will find the new one
Got a new cable. Worked.
Connecting the phone (Galaxy s4) to the computer through USB does nothing, unless I install the driver (and need to wait until the computer knows my phone 'for the first time'). It happens many times. If I disconnect the phone, I need to re-install the driver. Why? How can I fix this and save 5 important minutes?
