Folks,
I think this is a driver issue, but I'm not sure how to solve it. I can get the phone to recognise USB mode in Developer access, but I can't seem to get it to work by using the USB Mode in the network options.
The problem only seem to happen on my Windows 7 64bit machine (and another one I tried). I tried it on a Win95 machine at work and it had no problems recognising it either way.
It doesn't seem to matter if I install keis or not on the machines; the Win95 one worked right off the bat with no installation.
I know this is only a minor issue, but it is a niggling one. Has anyone else encountered the same issue?
I used it on a modded 64-bit W7 and it worked when transferring music, but it transfered at < 100kbps and it wouldn't let me transfer videos or sync with Kies Air.
Anyone else who is having issues? I'd like to know how to solve it. Not necessarily that other people have theirs working.
Nope no problems with win7 x64. Transfer files at ~12mb/s
Edit: cant remember which device i formated mem card on but either the computer or phone formatted card made transferring stuff realllly slow. Try formating with both.

i can connect and transfer files on my Win 7 32 bit and galaxy s 2. i don't know how's 64 bit. you can use latest Kies. but i have anohter issue about connecting. when they connected by USB, it show me "click home button to close Kies". i do it, but i can't connect them again. i don't find the Kies on my phone. i don't know which is useful Kies or USB?
I am running windows 7 pro 64 bit and I have no issues :s. Try a different USB port? Try going into device manager and searching for new hardware?
Had same problem, went into the bios and enable legacy usb, samsung galaxy s2 connects and work tried on 3 computer 2 with windows 7 64 bit one with ubuntu linux all work now.
Hey folks,
got a "little" problem with my device. I tried to copy some videos of it and it just won't work.
---
I connect my device to my PC and these things happen ...
Windows 7 x64:
Nothing.
Windows 7 x64 with Kies installed:
Windows sees that there is a new device, but it won't let me open as a storage ... "Code 10" in the device manager.
Windows 7 x64 with Kies installed and device in mass storage mode:
Windows sees that there is a new device, but it won't let me open as a storage ... "Code 10" in the device manager.
Ubuntu 11.10 x64:
Nothing.
Ubuntu 11.10 x64 and device in mass storage mode:
I see some files on my device, but when trying to open them, I only get some errors ... the real problem here, when I disconnect the USB cable (or unmount) then there are no files on my device left ... everything has been moved to "lost.dir" and I can´t open them from there, not even from my phone.
---
I tried to connect with USB debugging enabled, but it would work.
Any ideas?
/Edit 1:
The only way to copy stuff over to my computer is by using Kies Air ... and it takes ages for HD videos.
/Edit 2: THE SOLUTIONS LOL :-D
1. I had to connect my device via another USB slot
2. when USB debugging is enabled, it still wouldn't mount; then I installed this app https://market.android.com/details?id=com.jrtstudio.automount and now everything works just fine

1) Using a Rom? If yes check in thread if it, if this problem is already known.
2) Tried different USB-Slots?
3) Connect phone, search in device manager for the device and uninstall the drivers.
Then un- later replug the phone and wait if all drivers got installed again.
CHEERS ;-)

I have installed Samsung USB Drivers manually and also tried Kies to install the newest drivers, but my Samsung Galaxy S3 still isn't recognized by my computer. What can I do?
EDIT: It only works sometimes, so when I plug it out and in like 10 times, maybe I'm lucky and it will connect once.

I have the same problem. My VSGS3 works with my W8 laptop but not my W7 desktop (at all). The only thing I can assume that it would be is MTP issues with Truecrypt (my desktop is encrypted). I cannot get it to work at all.
take a look at this thread...

Really???? S3 Not Recognized?
Maybe I missed something in this thread but is this really the case??? The S3 cannot be recognized as a USB storage device by Windows? I accidentally left my SD card out and now have videos I need to transfer to PC, but cannot via email or any other means I can find. Anybody have a solution? I have installed the Samsung drivers but still not recognized . . . HELP!!!

You can use MTP mode to copy the files to the computer.
The device will appear with a phone-logo in 'My Computer'
Just plug Samsung USB cable into USB port on a PC with the Samsung USB drivers installed and cut and paste as many GB as you want .SD Phone or EXT SD card via Windows Explorer as normal .

This problem is quite depressing Has a restore fixed it for anyone?
I use mac OSX and after searching for a month or so, I couldnt find a solution to connect via USB. So now I use 'Air Droid' app from Play Store. Its pretty good and simple!! Plus, you can do alot more stuff like send or read SMS from PC.. Dont need to connect via USB anymore
I found that installing that rootkit installed the drivers to connect via USB - didnt root it just installed it for the drivers. THANKS!
I am having the same problem.
My Galaxy S3 charges when connected to computer via USB.
But is not detected in USB Debugging or regular mode.
Which windows version are u using. Try installing pdanet.exe on ur pc

You must know what windows you use, 32 bit or 64 bit? Download Kies through Samsung website, make sure got right software.

If you are using x64 Windows 7 this will EXE file can be found here:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Samsung\Kies\USB Driver\SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones.exe
back this up and then you can remove KIES. This is all you need to have your phone connected without ever really needing KIES.
Or you can use the driver provided by the TOOLKIT that MSKIP has designed (thanks - love it).
Cheers,
try disabling usb debugging

nothing has worked for me. I have not tried the toolkit but I installed drivers from the TeamEpic's easy root as described by QBKing77 and those have not worked since I installed twrp
One more to this incredible situation :angel:
experienced the same on my win7 64 bit. I removed it on the faulty usb port to another one and then luckily the driver installation went fine. Weird but worked.

I am having problems using Galaxy S3 i9300 4.1.1 with Windows 8 RTM x64.
I have installed Kies latest (2.5.0.12094_28). And i can see device is connected and i can even take backups. But when i am trying to send mp3 files it is giving an error "File Transfer from PC to 'GT-I9300' has been interrupted"
Also when the device is connected to PC via USB, i can see the contents in Windows Explorer but if i try to delete something, or upload a document there it says i dont have permisson.
With the same phone and PC, in Windows7 or XP there is no problem.
I have tried severel options like, "USB Debugging Mode", reinstall drivers, remove ghost drivers etc.
It just never worked for Windows8.
Any ideas or solutions?
I can tell you only: get used to it...nobody likes windows 8 and most likely even big companies will most likely slack doing drivers, even those who doesnt will yake their yime to make win8 drivers-dont get me wrong, i love win8, im running it since consumer preview

I mess about with stuff saved on my microSD card and phone very regularly with both my Windows 8 notebook (Release Preview) and tablet (RTM), connected by USB. My notebook has the Kies software installed, whereas the tablet doesn't. I don't have the problems you speak of.
On my notebook's Device Manager, with my phone plugged in, I have a category 'SAMSUNG Android Phone' with 'SAMSUNG Android ADB Interface' beneath it. Do you have that? My version of the driver is 2.9.503.726, dated 27/07/2012. On a side note, I also have the category 'Modems' with 'SAMSUNG Mobile USB Modem' beneath it.
Have you tried uninstalling the drivers, and letting Windows install suitable drivers for you?

Which version of kies are you using? Did you install the drivers seperately or using the ones that come with Kies?
Im also on legit W8 x64. No problems for me. I dont even have Kies. Lol

I also use 64x Win8, everything's fine. Try different drivers, maybe those from the S3 All In One Toolkit
Similar problem here, using a HP Elite book with Windows 8 (My Win7 machines and 10.7 Mac have no issues)
I am in the process of trying some drivers to see if they solve this problem.

So I'm using the HTC One with Windows 8 64bit pc and when I plug in my phone it won't mount the sdcard so I can copy files from my pc. This works just fine when I plug the phone into a Windows 7 machine. Any ideas what is going on?

Might have to uninstall and reinstall drivers. Or it could be a USB 2.0/3.0 thing.
When I plug mine into my widows 8 tablet the htc sync doesnt show up.
are there drivers specific for windows 8 for this device?
Mine works in my usb 2 and 3 ports, but I had to try a few different drivers until I found one that worked. Windows 8 refuses to detect it in fastboot, though

can you share the drivers you are using for windows 8?
This is the driver that I am using
Same here. MTP works fine, Sync works fine, ADB works fine. Fastboot refuses to work, and mounting in recovery so far unsuccessful. (Win 8 x64).

No setting I know of. I think I'm using drivers from AIO Toolkit. Also installed/uninstalled Sync so not positive, but one of the two. FYI I had to uninstall VMware because it was hijacking device and giving it some virtual USB driver, might occur with others like VirtualBox also.
i had the same issues with my Win8 64-bit, Dell XPS12 Ultrabook with USB 3.0 ports and this thread helped me solve all my USB issues with the HTC One. May be worth trying...
I had issues on Win 8 64 bit on my One X a while back.
This worked for me and solved the problem
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2156665
. I used the program to uninstall the drivers and reinstalled them.
Also just realized that no mounting in recovery is normal ... still learning to remember that I have a new device .
Recoveries don't support pure MTP media devices (yet), so it is not possible at the moment.
maybe drivers can not work for 64bit system, or use the windows 8 enterprise 64bit to try this again. some program can not work fine on my windows 8 pro, but my friend's windows 8 enterprise can
