Windows cannot find AT&T Galaxy S III when plugged to PC - Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)

My AT&T Galaxy S III only goes in charge mode whenever I connect to the PC now. Looks like Windows doesn't even detect it anymore. Before it worked fine.. anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks
nevermind, I went into download mode and plugged into USB to install the drivers then rebooted the phone and it worked again.

Maybe your old computer don't recognize the phone'si USB.
You need to change the model by hand.
When you connect the cable, select the data model.

USB not connecting to pc

Hello Comunity
I´ve got a problem with my galaxy player.GP-Y70 International Version :crying:
It doesn´t connect with the pc when i pluged in the usb of any pc, i´ve tried several pc´s, and the pc never recognize that i have just pluged in a device and the GP just get to charge but never shows up usb Connection, i also tried many usb cables 2 from samsung devices and 1 from motorola but nothing, the weird thing is that i just finished installing root with the superoneclick and when i rebooted into download mode to install cwm Odin didnt recognized it (i have all the drivers installed, and so Kies) then i rebooted into Android and my nightmares started, the usb connection is dead (for now) i can charged it, but i cant see it on any pc, i been searchin all over the web and found nothing,
BTW this Galaxy Player had the same problem before but my sister says she found a page where it said that she had to enter to download mode then to recovery mode and select the first option, and then she doesn´t remember and that it worked for her, but the page or the proceedure she followed is nowhere to be found. Also it had the problem that it just refused to charge the battery and it would just drained to death, so i left it several days charging with my Nexus 10 two amp charger until one day charged 100% :victory: and scince then it was fine.
So please help me!! :crying:
it turns out that i opened my galaxy player and cleaned out the main board with alcohol and closed it, so when i connected the player to the pc in download mode windows recognized it back again!
Hopefully this is useful to somebody and if it is, please let me know, if you need help to open your GP, i´ll make a video on how to ... if you ask me to

My S4 wont connect to my computer... help

A few months ago I downloaded kies and went through all the steps to root my phone no problem. When I went to root my wife's brand new out of the box phone it would not recognize her phone and further more when I plugged mine back in it didn't recognize it as a device.
1. The computer does not recognize that anything (either s4) is plugged in, but it does charge. I checked multiple cables and even connected a different type of phone with my cable and it worked fine.
2. USB debug mode is enabled and had been turned on and off.
3. I have uninstalled all the drivers and kies and re installed them. Still nothing.

[Q] No Download Mode Detection Galaxy S3 I9300 O2 UK [FIXED]

Hi, first post here.. so Hi
I have an issue with my S3, i can't get my pc to detect it in download mode at all, no reaction from windows.. if didnt plug it in to the pc at all, it worked once, and it took me reinstalling drivers for hours to get it working, this is when i first rooted the phone using the cf-root method..
When i wanted to install a custom rom a few months ago i discovered it went back to not getting detected and has stayed that way
it's as if i've not connected it to the pc at all, i'm using a rear usb port, with the original cable, below is a short list of what i've tried
Tried 3 different cables
Used a brand new install of windows 7 with SP1
tried various Samsung ADB Drivers
Tried every single USB port, front and back on my pc
Used as many different USB Debugging options as possible
I noticed that when i turn on USB debugging after enabling developer mode, nothing changes on the pc, if i remember rightly my S2 made windows install the adb driver when i turned USB debugging on..
Any help is appreciated with this, never had any of this happen with my S2 lol :/ i've been messing around on and off the last few months with it, thankfully there's Mobile Odin and also Nandroid backups for me to fall back on
Pulling the battery with the cable plugged in while my S3 was in download mode is what fixed this for me...
With the usb cable plugged into the PC but NOT the phone, go into download mode.
Connect cable to the phone, then pull the battery out.
Once windows detects the phone and installs drivers it's safe to put the battery back in.
Phone will be detected by Odin/ CyanogenMod installer and so on.
Why in hell having the battery in stops windows detecting the phone in download mode is beyond me.. unless samsung did it on purpose? lol..
Installed CM 11 using the above method and it went perfectly, but i do have to use the above method whenever i want to flash something using my pc, so it's more of a work around than a fix..
Fix was found on YouTube of all places! hope this helps anyone else
