USB connection problem S3 I9300 - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys, I have this problem. Recently my apps stopped updating ( I think Playstore and Google Services updated and made that happening...idk) and couldn't access most apps, then began to restart 4/5 times in a day automatically, and couple of days later just showing the logo after turning on. So I decided to update the OS but as it's rooted it wont let me. I used to have 4.3 version (don't the name, maybe Pineapple Pizza) so I decided to start from scratch after backing up everything, took note of version in my country, efs, etc). Made a wipe clean through TeamWin, and with Odin tried to make a new install ( Stock).
Unfortunately when connecting to my pc can't recognize device "“USB device not recognized”.
I tried cleaning USB connector with dried toothbrush, other ports in the back. With other 2 computers and same result.
Installed Kies but didn´t work, unistalled Kies and tried latest versions of drivers for windows 7, same result. Tried Samsung latest drivers ( older ones), didn't work either. I have tested other devices in the USB ports and they all work fine. I thought it might be that I didn't selected "USB debugging mode" before the wipe clean...or it wasn't a Wipe Clean at all...(?).
I checked most of simmilar problems in the forum, but I couldn't find a solution, sincne I can't even access my phone.
So, Im here with my oldie S3 in some kind of "limbo"
Any ideas that might help?
Thank you very much in advance! and sorry if Im posting in an incorrect forum.

Samsung MTP Driver Failed

I tried connecting my Samsung S3 to my computer and it doesn't connect. I tried debugging also and it doesn't connect. I uninstalled drivers, installed GS3 Toolkit and nothing is happening. I know there are related posts but those posts are not for i9300 they are for verizion, at&t, etc. What can I do to fix this problem? Can it be something with the ROM? I am running CM10 Paranoid Android.

Download driver.
Download SAMSUNG Android ADB Interface Driver v2.9.503.726
Restart your pc..
If not it should be test a different cable, tries to change usb port
if it is not test a different pc.....
CM10?
Do you happen to be using CM10, nightly? As found this to be the problem, while it worked with stock and even the Omega 26 build of JB, it does not work with CM10 nighties, as no matter what the "MTP USB Device driver" can not and will not install, what is interesting is the exact same driver worked less than 24 hours earlier with omega and did not require a reinstall, so my guess is CM10 has broken this support in the current builds.
What I'd like is a generic MTP driver to see if that works.

I have found the answser to this: After one year of troubleshooting, Done all the steps before like you mentioned and notthing happened too.
So I deciced to back-up my S3 to on a mini SD card. After that I gave the phone a factory reset. The phone reloaded and pushed the software again to the phone. If you make the phone factory default make sure you have a hotspot in the neaberhood so you can connect on to the wi-fi.
Why the phone get its software through Wi-FI or 3G to get its software again and Wi-Fi is faster:cyclops:
After the phone is back to factory default follow the instruction on the phone. It's just like you have the phone new out of the box . When that's its done connect it to your laptop/pc and start KIES or what programming your are using to sync your S3 with your laptop/PC and voila it connects and works and when you managed to set your bacp-up back from your S3 you can even see it back in the KIES program. Well dudes I hope this was help full.

[Q] USB Device not recognized

I am owner of the Galaxy S2. I updated yesterday to SuperNexus Jelly Bean ROM, didn't liked it. I restored my device to CM9 which i was using for a month without any problems. Then it started, computer couldn't recognize the phone anymore. Its like that SuperNexus broke something i don't know. I reformatted my Win 7 Ultimate x64 and installed fresh new CM10 - but after all my computer and S2 don't like each other - USB device not recognized. Chaos. I asked my friend to come over just to test with his S2 (he's on stock ICS 4.0.3 or 4.0.4), and when i plug his phone into my computer, everything works flawlessly. I tried mounting in recovery, i tried with and without usb debugging, Odin doesn't find phone neither, tried updating drivers - no luck... Dialing *#7284" just gives me "connection problem or invalid MMI code". Need help on this please!
You can check THIS thread. The one HERE , and also THIS thread.
I've read them all, tried every advice, but phone still isn't reacting to anything. So my problem is that phone couldn't connect to a computer, well it connects but it states "USB device not recognized", it charges but that's all. Everything started with Custom ROM SuperNexus. I've done these steps so far:
1. Reformatted my computer OS, which is Windows 7 Ultimate x64
2. Downloaded CM10 over my phone, get into recovery --> factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, format system, install ROM, wipe cache, wipe factory
3. I tried on my computer, tried on my old computer with Win XP x86
4. My friend's Galaxy S2 is working like a charm with MY cable on MY computer, which makes me believe that there is some defectiveness in my phone
5. I tried cleaning MicroUSB port with tooth pick, ear-cleaning pick (or how do you call it), needle with some paper wrapped around it, tried blowing in it
6. I tried with different USB ports, front ones, USB 3.0 - still no luck
7. I tried flashing Wanamlite and Neat ROM-s, still the same problem
I'm using Airdroid now, but i really need to know what's the problem! I have already ordered a new parts on E-Bay and I'm having high hopes about that solution. Im not able to post link to E-bay item, but search it under Item Number: 150904945773. Any other advice is really highly appreciable. Thank you
Try downloading the Rom over WiFi, or Hardline instead. Have you tried a different USB Cable ? Also I'm not able to check that Ebay # right now.

eBay item is this: New Samsung i9100 Galaxy SII S2 Charger Charge Port Flex Cable Replacement parts
OP, I'm hoping it works for you. You seem to be going in the right direction with your troubleshooting.
Well, i've downloaded this ROM (CM10) via WiFi, now i can do it over Airdroid too. But is there a way to flash Stock Original Samsung ICS in recovery? Or is it only available in Kies and Odin? I came across "Mobile Odin", do you guys have some experience with it, is it safe to use? How big are chances anyway that USB will work with stock ROM? Someone told me "your USB port on phone is OK, if it's charging it's not broken", so I'm thinking that it is not a hardware issue after all? And BTW i used several cables, and three different computers. My girlfriend have SGS3, i tried it like 2 hours ago with her cable on her computer with no luck (and of course her phone have no problems to connect to that computer using that cable). Thank you
I would try a Stock Rooted Rom, and see if that works correctly. If not try connecting the Device, and reboot the PC with the Device plugged in.
How to install stock ROM if i cannot get Kies or Odin to recognize phone? Via Mobile Odin?

Try USB solutions from My Android Solutions or Mobile Odin like http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=28302093&postcount=4789 ( procedure is same but written for Korean SGS 1
Guys let me tell you that I'm grateful to you, cause this Mobile Odin worked and my Stock Rooted ROM worked in connecting with PC. But not on first try when i got into a newly flashed Stock Rooted Firmware, i've let it to do his stuff, update what he needed to update blahblah. Then i tried to connect my cable - it didn't work. I cursed, i cursed so bad. Then i considered to give it another shot, rebooted the phone - and voila! Everything works, i tried 2-3 times and its working. Obviously SuperNexus started my problems, they couldn't be repaired by any other ROM i tried (i tried CM9, CM10, Wanamlite, old Wanamlite with MTP enabler, Neat ROM)... Then with Mobile Odin everything just worked. Dunno what really was the problem. Thank you all
Glad you got it sorted

[Q] Download mode not recognised bin 7 (64 bit) - drivers are installed - no recovery

Hello
I've had this problem for a couple of days now and while Google is turning up plenty of threads and solutions nothing seems to be working.
Yesterday I tried to encrypt my SGSII and but it failed and would no longer boot. So I flashed a no ROM via recovery (there was a notice about corrupted memory) and restarted. Since then I've only been able to access the phones download mode. Most posts with this kind of problem suggest that Odin is required. Windows will not recognize my phone in while in download mode, therefore I can't use Odin. Windows will, however, recognize it as a Samsung SGSII in the device manager if I let the phone boot up and hang at the SGSII logo screen.
The things I've tried so far
Installing Kies
ONLY installing samsung usb drivers
Cleaning the usb port
Rebooting phone and pc several times
Tried different cables
Tried a different PC
Additional info: Last ROM I was running was one of the cyanogen 10 nighties.
Sorry everyone, I know this seems to be a pretty common problem but I'm just out of ideas to try.
So, do I need to buy a new phone? Any ideas would be really appreciated.
Cheers

[Q] S2 (Semi)bricked? Stuck at boot, No recognition by odin...

Hey guys,
A friend of mine was having some trouble with his S2 which was running Omega rom v16.2 (phone would say it was charging with no cabe in it etc), so i told him he should try updating to Omega v23 Final and see if that fixed the problems.
However, after installing Omega v23 Final, he was stuck at the bootscreen, i told him it the first boot could take a while but it was stuck at bootscreen for a couple of hours before he gave up.
He tried everything, he wiped everything in recovery (system, cache, dalvik etc) but the problem persist.
So i figured i would flash the stock android rom via odin since nothing was working,
But the problem is that windows does not recognise the phone, neither does odin. (he had this in the past on old rom, it would recognise for some time then it wouldnt and so on)
it tries to install but fails every time, i tried installing several different drivers ( kies, and different stand alone driver packs) but i could not get it to work.
So, does anyone happen to know what is wrong?
Help is appreciated!
edit: odin does not say anything, windows says the usb device could not be installed
Tried several usb cables and ports, without succes
I think Debug Options wasn't enabled.What does Odin say?
Edit:Your USB is bad! If it says it's charging w/o a cable,it means bad USB...Try to lift the tongue(The metal part inside the USB port)with a toothpick.
And you could also try another usb cable as well as another usb port.

[Q] Samsung S3 GT-I9300 Win 8.1 No Drivers

Hi,
I have litterally looked everywhere before asking and none seem to awnser my issue that I'm having.
I have in the past managed to get my phone to connect on a Win 8.1 Machine, and I managed to root it. I also noticed today that my IMEI is Null/Void. However, when I've come to repair the efs my Phone will not connect anymore. No Drivers are actually installing, when I first plug the phone in I get no automatic driver install from Windows. I have installed the Samsung Mobile Driver V1.5.14.0, and also Kies Version 2. None of this seems to make a difference, I have tried pulling the battery, changed different cables and USB ports but doesn't matter if I reset or anything it won't pick the phone up all it will do is charge the phone.
I checked on USBDeView for the Drivers and even though I have run the Driver install's they do not appear to be installed on the list of drivers I have installed either under "Android,Google or Samsung".
Any help would be fantastic, and then after that I need to fix the Not Registered on Network Error! But one thing at a time!
