Ok. So to some up the first 2 days. I have been trying to install drivers and such to my laptop so I can get from ME7 running 4.2.2 on HD10.2. I installed samsung drivers from their website and also kies. Didnt work on my personal laptop.
The next day, I tried on my wife's laptop. Had the same issue. Everything installs correctly except for MTP driver.
Day 3. Laptop 3. SUPER FREAKING ANNOYED.
I am using my work laptop this time. I made sure there were absolutely 0 samsung files, drivers and whatever on the laptop. I went and FIRST downloaded the Samsung Kies from the samsung website. After completing downloading and installing its drivers I then plugged my Galaxy s4 into my work laptop using the stock charging cable that came with the phone. It started to download drivers. Everything was looking great. It Kies, it said my phone was trying to connect and it said that for awhile. I went ahead and selected MTP on my GS4 and the computer started downloading more drivers. ( Yes, debugging is turned on in developer options. ) Everything installed correctly EXCEPT for the freaking MTP driver. WTF??? This is my 3rd day in a row and my 3rd different laptop trying to get the freaking MTP to work so that my phone and computer can communicate so I can get away to hacking and get to HD 12.
Does anybody have any suggestions or any help? Has anybody had the same issue? I mean this is just beyond crazy and I want to pull my hair out right now. Please help.
That's sound strange. Did you check again all steps ?
I would try samsung support on this now. I did a google search and there are some issues sometimes. I have no idea why you are having this problem except pure bad luck.

I found that youtube video that other day. The guy was really hard to follow but maybe I will give it a second try. I feel like i have tried with usb debugging on and off but I will try it off like the forum that you mentioned said and see if that works. Also, I do have a external sd card.
OK. So i went and found media storage under settings and apps and then all apps and I cleared the cache on it. Then i made sure debugging was off. Plugged phone into my cpu. mtp driver started to install and BAM. It said ready to use. WOW. ITs amazing. I finally got it. Thank you for the help. It has been hell trying to get this to work
OK. Well I had it working. Since then, I have been downloading all the needed files to go from ME7 to MJ. I downloaded samsung Kies also. So i plug my phone into the computer and now I am not seeing the phone being seen by my cpu. I went to my computer and didnt see it anywhere. Weird because I just had it working like an hour ago and was able to see what was on my sd card and what was on my onboard phone memory. So i open up Samsung Kies and it just shows the phone is connecting and it has been saying connecting for the past 15 mins. So....now what? ahhhhhh

do u see the usb conection on the phone side? If so, some times you have to toggle between media and camera on the usb connection type..

So i guess my issue is. if i start my cpu, plug in my phone, it says installing device drivers.....idk why is does that everytime i plug the phone in because I have already installed the drivers. Also, mtp fails to install which is weird bc it worked yesterday. So i right click on my computer and go to manage and find the phone in there and then open it up and install the usb mass storage driver from there and then itll see the phone and then after a few mins it seems to disconnect from the mtp without me disconnecting it and the crazy stupid circle keeps going around. It so effing frustrating. I have never had such a pain in the ass problem with rooting and flashing roms on any previous phone. This is craazy
Still not working!
Im almost defeated. I have tried on 3 different laptops. I have installed and uninstalled drivers. I have deleted all usb drivers via USBDeview program and plugged phone in and tried again from scratch. I have manually installed the drivers. I am using my stock cable. I have tried with debugging on and off. I have watched a youtube video that had me go into the register files and change some settings. Its day 4 of dealing with it and i havent got it yet. I have done more research and trial and error then you would even know. I am beyond frustrated.

Hi guys,
Last week my rooted S2 was getting recognized on my PC and my friend's PC. But today when I tried, both Kies and mass storage are not getting recognized. Things I have tried -
1. Reinstalling Kies.
2. Reinstalling all drivers.
3. Some websites said some cache may be causing this issue; searched for all cache and deleted the long file names.
4. Phone is not getting detected by Odin either.
5. Wiped cache partition in recovery.
I'm planning to do a factory reset as a last resort after backing up apps with Titanium backup.
The issue started after I had flashed my S2 with MIUI rom. Now I went back to stock ROM and deleted all MIUI backup but still facing this issue. Please help!!
Note - When I plug in the phone, it says MTP connected and gets charged, but PC is not recognizing the device.
Thanks!
have you tried unticking/ticking usb debugging?
Try with the phone connected to pc and if that doesn't work try unconnecting first.
Does anyone know why the new KIES is not detecting??
@thevarunfactor : I am facing the same problem of Kies not detecting my phone.
@Killall : Your answer is NOT CLEAR and very CONFUSING!
I am facing a new problem with the latest version of Kies (Kies_2.0.3.11082_152_2). It fails to connect with the phone and shows the error, "cannot start service on this device. Pls disconnect and reconnect the device". What does this mean? Have tried everything. From re-installing Kies to re-installing device drivers using the Connection Error Resolution thing in the Tools menu of Kies. It was connecting fine till yesterday.
My laptop has Windows 7 Home Premium which is fully updated. And my phone is CF Rooted KF3 with Stock Kernel. Does anyone know what's wrong?

Ok. Never mind. I fixed it. Don't know if it is a permanent fix though. This is how I did it........Tick the USB Debugging option first and then connect. It will install a few drivers. Then disconnect and Un-tick the USB Debugging option, then reconnect. It starts recognizing. I guess there is some issue with Laptops using Windows 7 x64
Thanks guys.. But still facing problems.. Now I even wiped all the data and did a factory reset.. Still I'm facing problems

Has the new version of KIES STOPPED recognizing ROOTED/Flashed phones??? Why is there no answer from any DEVELOPER/SENIOR Forum Member about this since yesterday? This problem is being faced by many people. Please treat this as URGENT MATTER!

Judged by the number of recent posts i would say you are correct latest |Kies has connection/ cannot update this firmware problems .
As Samsung have taken steps to counter the reset of custom rom counter this may be a further tightening .
jje
Does anyone have a clue how to fix that issue then with Kies not being able to check for the latest firmware if you flashed your phone? I can see this becoming troublesome in the future.
Roll back Kies to an earlier version .

It's broken for standard phones too...rooted phones have not been singled out for special (mis)treatment.

Where is this USB debugging option to be found?
I noticed that by rolling back to 1.0.2.11071_128 the problem is here too (now?).

For quite some time now my fascinate will not connect to the computer other than for charging (no mass storage, not showing up in device manager). I can't say how many times i've installed drivers, changed cords and computers, etc. Today it finally showed up in device manager for the first time in a long time but 'Samsung Android Composide ADB interface" and 'Android composite ADB interface" show errors. It says drivers are up to date (also I just downloaded them) but there is a code 10 error saying drivers won't load. Sorry if this is too similar to other topics but any help is appreciated. I've been dying to get to CM9. Running CM7 Kang with Glitch v13.1

just wipe data and flash cm9...no need to odin. alot of folks seems to be having usb issues with thier devices lately....could possibly need cleaned? Thats a common place for pocket lint and other debris to build up.
have you tried to update the drivers manually ?
you can choose a driver to install. Sometimes when it gets to a list of drivers and the hardware compatibility is checked it may only list one driver. If you un-check that it will give you more drivers to choose from.
If you cant find anything that works check to see if your phone is recognized in download mode.
and your sure you tried decent new cable ???
Thanks for the help. I tried your driver suggestion and it still doesn't connect. This is the fourth cable I've been on and still nothing. I can get into download mode but odin never recognizes the device. I did successfully flash CM9 though. So I guess I'm okay until I need to odin for some reason.
I'm having the same issue as well. Until the connection issue, I was thoroughly enjoying ICS connecting.......10X quicker than GB. I have 3 different cables, updated drivers, no yellow exclamation in device manager......and all my phone will do is charge via USB. No PC or phone changes at all, just stopped working. I'm on ICS with AOPK. Still trying different methods...
I think Droidstyle might be right. My dad couldn't get his fascinate to connect, so he took it to a Verizon store and they cleaned the port and it connected.

:good:
I tried giving it a little brush with a soft toothbrush and tried compressed air as well. No dice. Shouldn't I avoid taking it into verizon as they'll notice its clearly not stock (running aokp)? Or does that not really matter?
You should make a nandroid, then restore to stock. Make it look lived in, then take it to Verizon..
P.S. Sorry about taking a long time to respond, I am on vacation.
Without any computer connection at all how do I go about that?
And no worries. A late response is better than no response
Sent from my deviled aokp
Sorry. My brain must have still been on vacation... You might be able to disguise Superclean3 or TSM Resurrection as stock though, but make sure to use red CWM all and to flash the stock kernel immidiately after flashing.
I just tried the toothbrush method, dry at first. Then I attempted the toothbrush and isopropyl alcohol, no dice there either. Getting frustrated.....I need a beer!

Ok, just figured out mine was the USB hub the entire time. I have one built into my desk. I plugged the USB into my printer, and it connects. Hmmm, my stuff in this room went crazy during a bad storm a few weeks ago......guess it may have messed some stuff up.
Hope the OP finds his problem. Maybe try running the USB right into the back of your computer, instead of a wherever you have it running to now?
It's my first time trying to root here and yes I'm new. But anyways, I'm stuck very early on in the process, not having even unlocked the bootloader yet, simply because whenever I launch the bootloader, I hear the 'connect/disconnect' windows sound, from then on it just says 'error: device not found'. This happens even though I've had the usb connected from before loading into the bootloader.
I've tried countless things for around 3 hours and nothing seems to work! I'd also like to add that I'm using Hasoon2000's all in one kit if that makes a difference.
I've done the obvious things like turned on usb debugging, installed htc drivers so many times, installed htc sync manager, uninstalled, reinstalled again. Tried using different usb ports, tried two different PCs. Checked all over the internet, can't seem to find anything.
Basically, my phone seems to disconnect or decide 'not to exist' as soon as the bootloader starts up not allowing me to do anything on it.
Any help would be appreciated, I know it's nowhere as bad as bricking your phone but I'd love to root my phone so thanks!

It does say fastboot USB all the time it's conneceted but still isn't found by the PC. Also installed the drivers and plug/unplug while on the bootloader.
I've had problems with the sync manager many times in the past, not being able to detect the phone, would that be a problem? If so I was thinking if resetting the phone and trying again would be an option, thanks
Make sure you're not using winodws 8, coz its not supported and the ADB drivers are not included in the sync manager.
So try it on windows 7.

One of the PCs was windows 7, the other was windows xp, so I'm having a feeling it's the phone itself
It's easier to do with Linux.
Do you have the option to try with it?

Not at the moment though, could set it up on a PC but I was really hoping it wouldn't take me to install a new OS just to root my phone :/ I'll try resetting the phone, if that doesn't work, I'll try with Linux

search for and install samsung drivers
---------- Post added at 03:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:07 AM ----------
if you use a better usb cable than maybe kies will be able to connect and install the drivers. you are using a c ustom kernel and rom , kies may not be able to install the drivers anyway.google samsung usb drivers for mobile phones or look in the stickies for how to return to stock, usually the drivers are easy enough to find.
