So i've uninstalled drivers from device manager, then hit the "Do it" button. It comes up and installs the drivers, asks me to restart computer. So I do. When I run CASUAL again, it still says disconnected. The log is from when I try to run it after restarting windows.
Yes debug is on.
I just upgraded from an incredible 2. Could those drivers be effecting it? If so, how do I uninstall the drivers without plugging the phone up to my computer and going through device manager?
Any and all help would be appreciated!
Downloading odin and kies now to see if they can detect it. Will post back soon.
Edit: I uninstalled drivers from device manager, downloaded Kies. Had Kies install drivers. After that a verison upgrade assistant option from windows came up. I went ahead and ran that and it installed some drivers. Restarted the computer and now CASUAL is detecting my phone. Unlocked and rooted now

I tried to root my Samsung Vibrant using the One-Click Root method but when I get to the part where the phone is supposed to reboot into Recovery Mode, nothing happens. Then, I checked Device Manger to see if there were any problems with the drivers and it said that Windows failed to initialize the Samsung Android Composite ADB Interface driver. How do I fix this?
I have Windows XP 32-bit.
I googled fixes for this for a while but nothing I found worked. Any help would be appreciated.
Does Kies is running without any problems and you can connect your phone?
If No, pls install Kies and be sure that you have an access to your phone.
If it is working: pls close Kies - also in the Systray. Not that the 2 different application makes trouble
I can connect my phone to Kies without any problems but it still won't work even after I uninstalled Kies
Hi everyone,
i'm having difficulties to connect my sgs2 to a pc.
i have tried it on 3 different machines (win7 64, win7 64, winxp 32) with the same problem:
I works fine when i first connect the phone in download mode. But as soon as i disconnect the cable i can't connect it again. Windows sais that it doesn't recognize the device and that's it. The device manager shows an "Unknown Device" under USB-Controller. And i am not even able to install drivers by manually pointing windows to a file.
as already sais, i have tried that on 3 different machines. I have tried installing driver via kies and via the driver file that is available here in the forums. i have also tried different usb ports.
Any ideas?
Goddchen
EDIT: Maybe this is an important information: the phone connects fine as long as it is running (can be found via adb, logcat is working, etc...) it only makes problem when in download mode...
I had exactly the same issue yesterday on my Windows 7 box. In the end I connected the phone in normal (not download) mode. Into device manager and uninstalled the drivers through there.
Then I uninstalled Kies and reconnected the phone, I allowed Windows to search windows update to find drivers (not that it did as it couldn't find any and reverted to the local ones. Then disconnect the phone, re-install Kies, run the install drivers from the tools menu, close Kies. Run up Odin and the connect the phone in Download mode, low and behold 2 minutes later after a lengthy installation process the phone was picked up.
I tried a number of things but for some reason this specific order seemed to sort it.
Hey,
thanks for you hints. But they didn't work for me.
I found the problem: believe it or not, it was THE CABLE. I went and got another cable and this one is working fine all the time. The other one doesn't... Very strange...
Whenever I plug in my phone to install the drivers so that my phone will be recognized by windows 7 x64, MTP drivers fail to install. If I start Kies, and try to connect it says "Devicemanager.exe has stopped working" and then my SGSII is just stalled in kies as "Connecting".
Any idea how to fix this???
...
I have now tried uninstalling kies and galaxy s2 drivers, reinstalling kies, downloading drivers from within kies, and then connecting the S2 via usb. The second sgsii gets recognized, same message "Devicemanager.exe has stopped working" and the kies "connecting..." loop.
...
No one can help? I want to unlock my SGS2 so I can use it, but I can't unlock it unless I root it, and I can't root it unless kies is working. Kies refuses to work.
...
Send halp soon!
Either Update your Windows and try again or try to connect in Safe Mode and see what happens.
...
I booted into safe mode, plugged it in while running kies. No more error, but still doesn't recognize. Booted back into regular mode, error returns, still no recognition
windows is up to date.
...
Things I have also tried:
reformatting the internal memory.
uninstalling/reinstalling drivers from phone
uninstalling/reinstalling drivers from kies
uninstalling/reinstalling drivers from phone w/ usb debugging on
transfering devicemanager.exe from another computer over my current kies installation.
I am totally stumped...

Try to re-install the Phone drivers (uninstall it first from Control Panel) and try to connect, in Safe Mode.
STOP using Kies and install a custom rom! I never ever installed Kies and my phone is completely up to date.
Use a different pc if you're so desperate. It seems your pc just doesn't like your phone.
Use kies air instead or use your phone as a mass storage device and don't waste your valuable time trying to fix that buggy, heavy and, in my opinion, useless software installed on your computer known as kies.
I had the same problem. I uninstalled Kies then disabled my firewall (Comodo) and reinstalled. Now it works fine.
How to advise new users to install USB drivers for SGH-I777 on their computer.
I'm thinking that installing Kies Mini is not easiest or best.
Looking for all the options, and opinions as to which is easiest and best.
Thanks.
In personal experience assisting people with their phones not installing properly, people plug their phone in before running any software to install the divers.
I've never had any trouble installing a phone when software is run *before* the phone is ever plugged in to the computer.

The only problem I had was when connecting my phone in download mode for the first time, when my computer failed to install the drivers and couldn't recognize the device (despite having recognized the phone in USB Mass Storage mode previously without my doing anything). My solution was to install Samsung Kies before trying again, which allowed my computer to find the right drivers and install them automatically upon reconnecting the phone. Very easy to do, just need to provide new users with a link to the download site (not enough posts so I can't link it, but it's the first hit upon Googling "Samsung Kies").
Search for:
SAMSUNG USB Drivers for Mobile Phones - Latest Version is v1.4.8.0
and:
Samsung PC Studio 7.2.24.9 (Not sure if this is the latest version)
Uninstall all previous versions of samsung software, drivers, kies, EVERYTHING.
Install both, reboot and plug your phone in and see if it works. ADB wouldn't work until I installed PC Studio. In shell see if "adb devices" shows anything.
Kies is crap and a waste of HDD space.

Need a little help here. I cannot get my phone to connect to my computer, I'm running Windows 7. I have kies installed and have also downloaded the drivers directly from the Samsung site, but still cannot connect. When I plug in, it says installing drivers, but then gives me an error.
If I go to Device Manager, I see SAMSUNG Mobile MTP Device but with the yellow exclamation mark. Under driver details it shows the correct driver installed, but has a Code 10 Error. "The Device cannot be started".
I've rebooted comp, rebooted phone, toggled USB debugging, uninstalled and reinstalled drivers, tried 2 different USB cables, and nothing is working. Anyone have any ideas?
I didn't have to do everything you listed to get it to work, but I did have to run the installer (T-Mobile_T999_GSIII_Samsung_USB_Driver_v1_4_6_0.exe) twice to get it to work.. it failed the first time.
I just unplugged and then plugged cable back in, ran the installer and installed again over old drivers.
You can also try going into Device Manager, right-click on the phone and "Update Driver Software" manually... installer extracts all drivers to the C:\Program Files\SAMSUNG\USB Drivers folder.
Still no luck. It installs the Samsung USB modem drivers fine and shows the phone correctly, but fails on the MTP Driver section.
Just for future reference for anyone that comes across this while searching. I did get this fixed. I tried a couple more usb cables and a friends computer with the same issues.
What I ended up doing was a factory reset on the phone. Plugged phone in after first boot and mtp drivers installed right away.
