Have you installed Kies? Might help if you do not have that software to start. Although you should not 'need' it.

either install kies in your pc or samsung usb drivers in your pc. Now connect the mobile, it will be detected. you can also let the windows to install drivers using windows update

Try a full windows update and then reinstall Kies.
Ok..thanks..

Same for me here... just updated to the latest version of Kies, and godbye connection!!
I'm also on Windows XP (Pro, SP3).
Any clue, anybody?
Just found a "solution": I restarted the phone and connected it to another USB port, with Kies running. This time windows notified a hardware installation problem, but the connection with kies went ok.
Strange that before, when I could not connect to kies, every time I connected the phone to the PC, windows was saying that "hardware was successfully installed"...
Rather weird indeed...

Uninstall all previous drivers, reboot, install these, reboot again, plug phone in.

Try this thread. The OP is a few months old & there maybe more up to date drivers available now (have you hooked your phone up to your PC & run Windoze Update ?) but it's a start & only thread I know of on here off the top of my head that has a link to drivers on their own. Most people install Kies to get the drivers.
So...What I'd do is this:-
1) Hook phone up to PC & run Windoze Update & see if it installs drivers. Basically, if your phone & PC can see each other (you get the yellow highlight in ID:COM in Odin or you're able to transfer files to/from your phone/PC), you don't need to do the next two steps.
2) If your phone/PC still can't connect to each other after 1), get Kies from Samsung's website & install it.
3) Still no joy after 2) ? Install the drivers from that thread I linked you to.
If you're running Win7, the drivers normally auto install when you hook your phone up to your PC via USB. Older versions of Windoze might require one/both of the other steps.

Yes sir. My windows 7 pc can detect my samsung. So does it mean i dont need kies. Also i transferred music and videos into it. So there would be no problem with odin? Thanks thanks thanks

Kies connection issue

Hi, i installed kies on my laptop which is running win7 and when i connect my phone it just says "connecting" and runs like that forever. I tried reinstalling the drivers, reinstalling kies and even reinstalling windows but nothing helped.
Now i have two questions:
1. Is there any way to fix this?
2. Is it safe to flash something using odin on that laptop?

This is driver issue. I had same problem. Uninstal current driver and install 1.4.6. I think thats the one . Make sure you turn of internet when indtalling drivers and then windows picks up these drivers phone. I have seen a guide on internet if I find I will post link

try uninstalling kies and clean its leftovers, then install first drivers then Kies. see if your device is connected, if not change pc or Windows ur running.
Hope this helps !
Follow this guide
You do not need to uninstal kies just Uninstall drivers
1. Uninstall any previous instance of USB driver
3. Download Samsung USB drivers 1.4.6.0 (the problem is with the latest drivers not pc)
4. REBOOT IF REQUIRED
5. Disconnect from internet (VERY IMPORTANT!!! - forcing Windows to install local drivers ONLY)
6. With the phone disconnected, install USB drivers downloaded in steps 3
7. Connect the phone and let Windows install the drivers.
8. Reestablish the internet connection.
I've connected my S3 to the PC several times, I've also rebooted twice and I've never lost connection again. while of course everything works as expected.

If having difficalty finding driver then download SAMSUNG GALAXY S3 QCOM TOOLKIT V2.3 install go to directory where installed. Find driver folder and install driver from there. Make sure drivers are 1.4.6.0.
You can then save the driver exe file and unistall the toolkit. No need to run toolkit or use toolkit.

Odin not detecting phone

I have Odin 3.07 and have been trying to Root but Odin not detecting the phone. I had USB debugging enabled, disabled Kies and even uninstalled it, have the Samsung USB drivers installed. Nevertheless it failed to detect. I tried every possible thing I could. I'm really fed up of all this. Please help.
