no hardware id

Hello All,
i had a problem with my phone every time plugging in galaxy s3 into windows (xp or 7) i kept getting no hardware id found after flashing my last rom.
just thought i would share how i resolve. very simple steps...
power off and remove battery
uninstall any drivers from windows
insert battery
power on device
once fully booted plug device back into windows and let it search for drivers.
all "should" now be working.
just thought it would be helpful to share as took me a while to find information online.
Got the same problem, with the difference that my S3 is fresh out of the box. Installed kies, drivers. Tried all of the usb-ports but nothing seem to work.
Was looking to root it but the connection (looks to me) would be an must...
W7
64 bits
Standard instructions are to use Samsung cable and a USB port on the motherboard .

jups, tried several cables and all of my usb-ports. Still no marriage between phone and desktop
funnily enough i just had this happen to me on my win 7 64bit ultimate, havent flashed any new roms just stock with cf root. All of a sudden my comp gave the sound effect if something was disconnected and I just got hardware id missing.
It did resolve itself though after I rebooted both phone and pc so unfortunately cant narrow it down further.

Is KIES loading while you are trying? If so, shut it down.
I've never had to load drivers. Windows always finds them on it's own.
missing hardware id (Win7 64 Home)
Same Problem for me.
I have never used Kies, but installed des Samsung Driver Package Ver. 1.5.6.0 .
For 3 month all worked fine with 2 Galaxy S III, 2 S II and 1 S I.
Since yesterday i have this trouble. Reinstall drivers, shut down phone... nothing helps. Changing USB-Ports, nothing...
Running on Stock XXBLG8 wird Syiha 1.5 or Speedmod K1-8 Kernel.
Would be fine if there is a fix or at least idea how to solve this
Just so everyone knows, the way i fixed this was very simple.
1. Uninstall Kies and All Drivers
2. Reboot Into Recovery (If Roooted)
3. Wipe Cache and Dalvik
4. Fix Permissions
5. Install LG8 Rom (rom installer from UpdateMe)
6. Reboot Phone
7. Disconnect From Internet (PC/MAC)
8. Re-Install Kies
9. Connect Phone to PC/MAC
10. Let Phone Install Drivers Again with Kies
11. Should Be Good-to-Go
1
-On Control Panel go to Programs and Features find Samsung mobile USB drivers and uninstall it, conect phone on PC via USB cable and wait for drivers to install.
or
2
-Use Kies and klik Troubleshoot problems with connectivity
That should solve the problem

this worked for me but i have to repeat the process every time in reconnect my phone to the pc
It works
Hi guys,
I think I figured it out.
I was reading posts about this issue on multiple forums and there was one that caught my attention (I cannot remember where it was exactly- it was late in the night).
The thing is that the current Windows running PC's (or most of them) does not have the latest drivers and updates installed.
First I tried connecting my Galaxy S3 to the PC (which was not updated) and had the same errors you guys have. Then I connected it to my home laptop and this did not work as well. Today when I went into the office (@work) i tried again there and it worked flawlessly. Then it hit me:
The IT dept keeps the laptops and all the infrastructure up to date (including Windows updates). Therefore I tried again at home but this time with Windows up to date and guess what...it worked on both PC and laptop !
What I did (please keep in mind that all of my laptops and PC's are running Windows 7 - not sure if it works on older Windows versions):
1) Uninstall Kies and the related USB driver it installs (Control panel -> Programs and features)
2) Let Windows install the latest updates (Control panel -> Windows Update) and let it reboot your machine and finish installing things.
3) After you're logged back into Windows just plug your USB cable into the phone and PC/Laptop on any of the USB ports and it works !
Hope this helps !
Regards,
Mike

Samsung Composite Driver is exactly the Problem on Windows 7 X64!
I installed these drivers SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones and this solved my problems with the ID issue. Here is the link https://www.dropbox.com/s/fm9b12xy3r0t07b/SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones.zip. Good luck guys
i try it with only Windows Update Driver that was not the Solution, that was without ADB Support..
I resolve the Problem, :good: if anyone have the Problem further, try this..
- uninstall all Samsung Driver & Kies from your System
- then you need the tool USBDeview
- uninstall with that tool all unused or Samsung USB Driver from your Sys
- Reboot your Machine
- after that clean your registry (example with CCleaner)
- Reinstall or Update your Motherboard System Driver (Only USB)
- Reboot your Machine
- Install Now Samsung Kies again
- again Reboot your Machine
- and last disable USB Debugging on your Phone and activate it again
now you can plug your Device and hopefully with MTP and ADB Support and without Hardware ID Error.
Best Regards
This happened to me since I updated Kies. What works for me:
Go to settings -> more (under data usage) -> USB Utilities -> connect storage to PC -> OK
Windows now does recognise the phone and you can browse the phone as a drive. Kies will give you an error.
Turn off USB Storage, disconnect the phone.
Take out the USB cable and put it back in and Windows should detect the phone properly now and Kies will recognise it too.
this worked for me first time
Flashed rom, new error of mulfunctional USB and not recognized phone on USB. Interesting is, that another phone, but the same type, same ROM was recognized. Nothing from above helped (reinstalled progs, restarts, reinstalled ROM, tweeking in kies)
Helped only reinstalled drivers posted above by gee2012 (SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones)! Thanks for this.

Big thanks, these drivers sorted it out for me though the ones you hosted have gone from your dropbox I found more easy enough because of the name you supplied.
Just out of interest are those having this problem using an AMD chipset or a gigabyte motherboard? My main PC has both and its the only system I am having this issue with.
had this happen again after flashing a new rom from a full wipe. un installed the drivers then reconnected and fixed the issue.

Try uninstalling the samsung drivers, and install the drivers from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=961956
You may alternatively install KIES from the Samsung website (Google it up).
If connectivity does not occur, try to narrow down the problem.
Does the problem occur on another USB port? No = port issue (use the working port)
Does the problem occur on another computer? No = driver issue (reinstall drivers and reboot)
Does the problem occur using another cable? No = Your cable is whacked (use another cable)
htanks but it doesn't work

View attachment 2372898

and what about the (wifi) how can i make it work?
There may be several issues on your computer that may be causing this error.
Here's an extensive checklist of things you may want to resolve:

At worst, try to use another device to download the file, and then physically transfer it to your computer via USB.

[Q] Problem with USB connecting

Hi everyone, I've been having some serious problems with the usb connection of my samsung galaxy fame (GT-S6810L)
1) I intended to root the phone, but the adb console wouldnt recognise the phone
2) I intended to flash a new rom from odin and maybe root later ... but odin didnt recognise it neither
3) Finallly, I gave up and said to myself "**** it, im sticking with this rom, with my tablet i dont need gaming, so i dont need rooting ...". But when I went to load some music into the phone .... oh yes, the computer didnt recognise the mass usb storage system !
I tried with 3 different cables, all usb ports and A LOT of drivers (official and unnoficial) i found out there ... i also tried the generic ones i used to root my chinese tablet thorugh ADB, but no luck. I havent tried Kies because my pc is a piece of s$%& and it could possibly explode
I think the problem would be in the drivers, because i tried plugin in another phone (samsung galaxy Y pro, GT-B5510L) and the pc didnt recognise it as well
The worst of all is that when I plug the phone into my pc, it recognises that im pluging in something, but I cant work on it
This is what I get:
(i cant post the links of the pictures, but the hardware manager shows a new menu that goes "Android Phone" with a submenu that goes "Samsung Android Interface")
I NEED help, please ............. I might throw this piece of crap in any moment
Thanks in advance
PD: i have winXP 32bit

Did you select the option of USB Debugging mode enabled when connecting to ADB??
If you didn't, then try connecting by enabling that.
As you said no other samsung devices are connecting, then you surely install driver softwares.
Here's the link to the Samsung USB Driver: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=961956
If you have installed Samsung Kies, disable it first and then try to connect it in Odin or ADB!!
Press thanks if I have helped you.
Yes, i turned on USB debbuging (i rooted my tablet through ADB). I turned it back off when i tried to use mass storage, as well as double checked if the usb thetering was oof (it was)
Ive never installed kies because my pc is pretty crappy (not even 1gb ram)
Ill give that driver a try and let you know, thank you !
EDIT -------------
Those were the drivers !! I love you man !

Real problem with USB port

Hi everyone I wanted to flash a rom on my new S3 but I couldn't beacuse of the USB. If I plug the USB the phone charges but it doesn't recognize it as a phone, in fact it says "Unknown Device" and doesn't let me install any driver. I've tried everything possible: uninstall and install new drivers, install different types of drivers, I've also tried the secret cose *#xxxx*xxxx# (I can't remember the numbers).
If anyone has a possible solution for this, let me know, thank you
EDIT:I've also tried different pc and usb port, but nothing happpened
Try another lead and put the phone in download mode first.
Else you have a fault with the usb socket or motherboard.

I've tried that, but the result is still the same :/
EDIT: please guys, if someone can tell me a method to, at least, root my phone whitout connecting it to my pc, would be great! I've tried framaroot, towelroot and also motochop method, but none of these worked
There is no way to root without using Odin and the usb port.

[Q] Samsung S6 Undetectable by Computer

Hello guys i'll try to keep my explanation short.
Device Samsung S6 Edge (rooted)
Not detected by ANY PC anymore, HOWEVER it does charge.
I Tried 5 different cables (new, original, old) cables do work so does the main PC
as my other devices are detected.
I have deleted KIES, SMART SWITCH , DRIVERS and reinstalled in the same order.
So, i flashed the S6 back to stock using TWRP (S6 was running Custom Rom XtrestoLite).
Still nothing, so i deleted all my files from the phone and flashed it back to stock again.
Still nothing, so i wiped the complete OS off the S6.
Now i'm here.
Try to change the usb mode it may can help

That's impossible as i've said my S6 has no rom and Computers do not detect the S6.

Tell me the status for now, S6 is running on stock or custom??
enable usb debugging and install usb driver again, also check in another pc/laptop whether they are detecting it or not.
Use Original cable and give a shot This might help you.
Also head over to Samsung's ofifcial Developer website and fetch the Samsung USB Driver pack which is about 15MB.
That generally solves the issue. Atleast for me!
I had the same problem think the usb board is damaged... you should replace it.
It was running a custom rom, but now the phone has no rom. I can only into download mode or TWRP and thats it.
So there are no options available on the phone itself.
I tried kies driver, smart switch driver, seperate driver from samsung website, i've also tried clockwork samsung driver. Nothing works for me.
Maybe it's the micro usb port that is damaged, but i highly doubt that.

Highly improbably that the USB board is damaged. Try different cables and before that, try it on a different PC. Sometimes it does work. My friend's S6 wouldn't read in Download Mode on my PC but it did on his.
Also head over to Run on your PC and type devmgmt.msc and check if there are any drivers missing.
I think the problem is the drivers
Install new drivers or find other samsung ... and try again
i've installed many drivers including the one that is 15,3mb in size.
guys it's not the computer because it does detect my tablet and my s7.
which also means that it's not the cables and believe me i have tried many cables about 8 cables now .
it's not the drivers, i dont know what it could be.
i think i'll order a new micro usb port and try that out eventhough i know that the usb port can't be damaged.
Unless one of you has a better idea, you are welcome to share.
Update: Hi guys, i've replaced the port but the phone is still undetectable by any computer.
Does anyone know what's wrong with this device?
Seriously, is there NO ONE of you guys with any knowledge or what?
I was going to say your usb charge port is damaged enough that it will charge but not transmit data but i re-read your post and realized you can't have a charge port issue if you able were able to flash stock rom. If you have teamviewer, pm me and i'll try to help you.
I have had this issue before in the past. Turned out that the cable was at fault. Swapped it and everything worked as expected, computer found it once again.
If it's not the cables as you claim, then you may have to ship it to samsung and request a replacement device.
