Hey guys, fine?
So, my phone, after some time, refuses to connect to my PC. It usually happens when I already connected and disconnected the phone a few times. Rebooting the phone doesn't seem to work. Also the SD Mounter app from DooMLoRD doesn't work. I know rebooting the PC work, but I was trying to find another possible solution to this, which would make this process faster...
The phone knows it's connected to a PC, as the debugging icon appears...
Yup same is with me. Frustrated of disconting and connecting cable

I rooted my Optimus months ago and had no problem connecting it to the PC. But since I unrooted it when I plug it into the PC the only thing it will do is charge. I've enabled USB debugging mode and that has no effect at all.
I'm using the same PC I used to root the phone so I know it has the proper LG USB drivers installed.
What can I do?
did you enable usb mass storage? when u connect ur phone to the computer u should get a notification that tells u to click it if u want to enable it

When I connect my phone I get nothing. Other than seeing my battery indicator change over to the charging icon. I get no prompts, no ding noises, no prompts on my PC or my phone. I've tried connectign it with the USB debugging checked and unchecked and it seems to make no difference.
Before I rooted my phone I was able to connect my phone to the PC and enable USB mass storage mode. I could transfer music and videos no problem. But since unrooting it doesn't seem to work any longer.
Do a factory reset and see how the things work out.

I've been doing a little reading and I read that some people are bricking their phones after performing a factory reset after an unroot job. It's been several months since I unrooted my phone and I don't believe I made a custom recovery. However I'm still a little worried.
Well I did the factory reset but that still doesn't fix my USB problem. Damn it. Not sure what to do now...........
Are you using new usb if not then you must try a new one.
If you are using a new usb try restarting the phone then the pc.
I'm using a USB cord that is known to be good and also using a PC that also has the proper drivers installed. I'm rebooted the phone, PC, and even did a hard rest of the phone. Still not working
Maybe try to reinstall usb drivers, if this give no results, try to connect your phone to friend's PC.

I'm using the original cord that came with my Optimus.
Get ur phone rooted again and change ur settings as default they are before rooting.
first try to connect to PC while u have rooted. if its not work then try to connect it to some other computer or data cable. If doesn't work then unroot and contact LG.

do you want to connect your phone to the computer for developmental purposes or just to navigate through the sd card on your computer? there are apps that can help (like if you want to use adb, theres an app called adbwireless or if you just want to navigate, there are a couple of apps that allow you to wirelessly connect your phone to the computer)

So yeah, I give up trying in hope to get some decent help here.
I am not able to connect my SGS3 to any of my 2 PC's or my notebook.
I have tried everything as far as I know (on all 3 systems):
(Re)installed KIES
(Re)connected my SGS3
Rebooted the computers
Rebooted the phone
Did a factory reset
Used the SGS3 toolkit
Tried different USB slot
I even bought a new USB cable just to be sure :s
When I plug it in it starts charging and that's it.
Windows doesn't even give the confirmation sound when any random USB device is connected.
I don't see my SGS3 anywhere on my computer (not in device manager, nowhere).
I reinstalled KIES several times and installed the drivers through the SGS3 toolkit.
I own the international SGS3 with stock rom (haven't been able to update at all because of the connection issue).
I do not know what to do anymore.
Please help oh wise XDA gurus !
I would try a return to supplier and get them to prove its not hardware

Had the very same problem.. installed updated usb drivers from the samsung site and it pretty much worked for me..

Probably a broken registry on your computer try fixing it using advanced system care (it's free) afterwards try reconnecting it again. If that doesn't work try to go to samsung's support section and see what you can find to resolve your issue.
I tried it on my PC at work, same problem.
Registry issue on 4 different machines?
I think not.
Also:
I got connectivity for a moment on both my PC and notebook but it went away within seconds.
The phone gave the notification that it is connected as a mass storage device.
Then the message disappeared and it only charged and nothing else.
Playing with the cable it came back and off a few times.
Now it stays disconnected.
Seems like the connector in my phone is dead :s?
Open Terminal Emulator
type SU
then type this.....
setprop persist.sys.usb.config mass_storage adb

Check the connector on your S3. The PC's maybe fine, but something is shorting pin 2 & 3 thereby nullifying the data pins.Hence it is being detected as a charger.(Actually that is the difference between a charger connection and a PC connection).Thereis a thread on XDA about cleaning it with a toothpick. Takes a few minutes actually.
you may consider on cleaning your phone's usb port
in addition, there is an app in the market (for free) that enables/disables usb mass storage (that's how i used to fix my usb problems; i honestly dunno why)
also, if u have tried different roms (stock/kernel), it may be a hw problem.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
I thought I had connector problems myself sometime ago, but as Dr Danish said, I un installed the samsung drivers which are different from un installing kies. Restart pc and connect phone, make sure you have Internet, and windows will auto install them again.

if this is happening on multiple machines then its more likely to be the phone, did it happen after a flash phone reboot?. It happened to me on my old galaxy S2 after flashing a corrupt MIUI ROM.
Flash back to FULL stock should resolve, if not then your phone is in a state you can return it in, if you haven't had it long they may do a straight swapout.
It is the only thing that worked for me. It tells the phone to inquire about mtp/mass storage everytime it is connected

Does that mean you solved this with a flash back to Stock as I advised?, although sgs3 doesn't use mass storage, if you are on stock you wouldn't get these messages unless you had rooted and installed EASUMS. When you plug it in it should just say on your phone "connected as media device" and it will connect to your PC using MTP. All you need for MTP to work is the correct drivers, Kies install will provide these if you havent found them elsewhere.
Where are you at now then?
When I plug my international S3 into my PC it will charge but I don't see it on the computer.
Info: international s3, win 7 32bit, 32gb extsd card.
I've removed the battery and sd card, & restarted both the phone and computer. Also tried using many different usb port locations on the PC.
I cant install the official Jelly Bean update through Odin because my S3 can't even connect to my PC!!!!!

Yeah, I'm having the same problem with my phone. When I reset the phone, it'll connect to the PC but as soon as the phone updates from my Google account, the phone won't connect to the PC anymore. I tried replacing the phone and same thing. There's something with my Google account. I tried checking all syncing settings and even turned off all syncing. Nothing.
That is such a pain in the ass. If you find a solution please tell me.
I'm thinking about doing a factory reset but I'm afraid the same thing will happen as you.
It doesn't work in Ubuntu as well as Windows btw
Does the USB icon appear in the system tray when you plug it in?
If so, make sure you have it in Camera mode instead of MTP.
If it works, the way I got it to recognize the phone was when my computer failed installing the drivers, I set it to locate the recommended drivers from the internet automatically. I'm on Win7 32 bit as well.

No, the USB icon isn't even appearing in the notification tray. It works about 5% of the time and when it did show up, I was in MTP mode not Camera mode. If the icon shows up again I will change it.

My S3 wont show up in the device manager in Win7. There is also no USB icon in the phones notification tray.
Had the same issue. Happened when kies updated. Only fix I could get to work was uninstalling Samsung drivers and kies from the computer. Rebooting both phone and computer, then plugging phone into computer for drivers to reload. This worked as long as I did not reinstall kies.

Hi,
Need help. I used to be able to transfer file via my windows or mac, plug in the usb cable, got the usb debug notification shows up on my phone, pull down the notification, I can choose MTP or Mass Storage.
Then one day, it just decided not to work anymore, I can no longer see those usb debug option. Everytime I plug in my USB cable. I have also tried different sort of usb cable even the original motorola usb cable, but nothing works.
Weird thing is when I plug the phone, nothing happened, then I unplug and plug it back, it will start charging, but still no usb debug options. I also cannot hear any sounds in windows when I plug in the usb.
Please, any idea, tips or does anyone ever experienced this before and know what's the solution?
Thanks much!

Update, it seems to get detected when I plug it in on PC that is running XP. This is getting weirder...
The Stock ICS Final i'm running works flawlessly with the usb connection, but various custom ROM's i've tried can't mount either Internal SD or External SD. Turning off USB debugging mounts the internal memory on some ROM's, but only with read rights.
There are quite a few people with this problem, and despite searching everywhere i haven't found an proper answer as to why this happens.
agree.. i saw a lot of people having the same issue but most solved it by using moto original cable but doesn't work for me sadly.
is there a log in the system itself? something like a logcat that i can take a look?

Did you look at what the usb phone setting is on. I know there are extra ones like modem or something or other that could prevent transfer.
I am having similar issues, the mtp file transfer mode seems to borked. I can get files from phone but not send em. I've been mounting my external sd as drive then moving the files using root explorer.
Of course.. It always shows that MTP mode is enabled but does nothing when you tap it, and also shows usb is connected on the phone but when taping that it brings up only options for internet passthrough and sharing etc...

Could be the USB 3.0 intermittent issue. Try a powered hub that is USB 2.0 as if your notebook is new enough most likely the USB ports are all 3.0.
Just saying.
