How To Get Windows 8.1 To Recognise USB Mass Storage On Your Phone​
I have had the problem for ages that when I connected my Samsung Galaxy GT-S5360 into my Windows 8.1 PC nothing happened - Windows 8.1 simply refused to recognise the device - not even anything in device manager - nothing - nada
However it would recognise the phone if I set the phone to download mode - but I want to use my phone as mass storage
Well after months of trying I finally found a really stupid solution
Solution
Install the usb drivers for your phone as normal
connect the phone to pc via usb cable (nothing happens other then a few beeps as normal)
now plug in any usb dongle that you have already installed on your pc - like a usb wireless mouse dongle
suddenly windows detects the phone and you can now set your phone to mass storage from the phone status bar
Every time you want to connect your phone in mass storage just plug it in then plug in the other usb dongle after

no - read the thread fully - at no point do I mention odin
you just need to plug your phone in then plug in any other usb dongle and the option to connect to mass storage will appear in the phones status bar
You mean connect my Galaxy Y with Windows 8.1 first, and then what's the USB dongle(is this like flash drive, wired mouse or something?) will detect it in phone status bar?

[Q] [PROBLEM] Samsung SideSync 3 on Windows 8.1

Hello!
I'd really like to use SideSync 3 from Samsung with my Note 4, because I work on my computer alot and it would be very handy to operate my phone via comp.
I had it set up on my ex personal PC via USB, but I can't get it to work on my ASUS laptop.
Problem: I install SideSync 3 from http://www.samsung.com/us/sidesync/ and after I start the program nothing happens. It's like it freezes on opening and doesn't start. I was looking in the running processes but can't find any clue that is actualy running nor anything. I tried running as admin, tried system compatibility with win 8, 7, xp, dpi changes, admin rights... nothing works.
Any idea?
I'd be really happy if someone helped me out! =)
Sorry this won't help much. But it's working fine on WiFi. 8.1 Windows. Check you have latest version from Samsung on your note

Same problem here on Asus laptop with Windows 8.1
Same problem here.
Any ideas?
hi ,
i noticed that you are trying to get SideSync 3 it to work on Win 8.1 (PC /USB .)
However ,i have Acer laptop Win 8 ( have not updated laptop to Win 8.1 ) SideSync 3 works fine. (No freezes or nothing, smooth, no problems at all )
Note 4 / USB connected .
Maybe you can " read " something into why it works on Win 8, since you " tried system compatibility with win 8" ?
Good luck
I have same problem. I tried on 3 different computers (Win 10, Win 8.1 and Win 7). To my suprise I can't run this app on any computer. It just will not start - at least it seams so. I also tried different compability modes and run it as administrator, but no success (it's same experience as miHah).
This is not a problem of phone (I use S6 Edge) - the phone is recognized when connected by USB (and I can browse/edit content on phone from pc). It just wont work with SideSync. BTW: I tried with SideSync version 3 and 4. Same results - doesnt run.
I have similar problem. I am unable to install samsung sidesync because it freezes my Windows 10 pc while installing samsung usb drivers for mobile devices. I am also unable to uninstall samsung usb drivers. Everytime I forced to reset my pc. Any ideas?
I have same issues and very confused
Admin rights requested on startup
At any time when I reboot, as Sidesync is started during boot sequence, when I login in, the Admin rights autorisation opened as I am not admin by default.
Any clue or advice for this ?
Thanks
jp
Same here
Do you guys also have keis 3 installed? I was able to start sidesync. I hadn't had any devices linked yet but I installed keis 3 and now it is doing the same (not even starting). I noticed when I downloaded sidesync from the Samsung website, it notified me I needed to update keis 3 and uninstalled it when I accepted the update. I wonder if it has something to do with both programs being installed or if you also need sidesync source on the computer as well. BTW I'm running acer win 7.

Help with USB

Hello!
I just started having issues with my android phone and the ability to select the USB connection type (Charge, MTP, PTP, etc...)
I was getting the notification fine 10 minutes ago. But now it doesnt appear anymore....
I might have something to do with this issue.
I was trying to move files over to the phone and the file transfer froze and wasnt responding on windows PC.
I unplugged the phone and the transfer screen went away, tried to plug it in again and windows listed it as an unknown device.
Both of my windows PCs are having this problem. The USB cord still works as I have tested it on other devices. I have tried enabling USB debug mode and that didn't help.
My phone boots, all the apps seem to be working fine.
I have a samsung 64 gb micro sd inserted into the phone and it it formatted for marshmallow. (currently using this ROM: [ROM][Lux][XT1563/2] ֍ Marshmallux ֍ Stock based rom 6.0 [MPD24.65-18])
Couldnt find another post about this issue so Any help would be super.
So i figured out its something to do with windows 10.
I plugged my phone into a windows 7 pc i have and it worked as it did before.
solved
A simple restart did the trick.
Wasn't sure why this would help since i was having the issue on two windows 10 devices.
This seems like a really small problem so moderators can choose to delete this if the post is redundant.

Problem with Transferring files on my PC

Hi. I bought a Redmi Note 7 Global 32GB/3GB yesterday and I have problem with transferring files
When I connect my phone to my PC (win 10) via it's USB cable, a menu appears with 3 options on the phone:
*No data transfer
*File transfer
*Transfer photos (PTP)
No matter which one I choose, In all 3 situations a partition appears in "This PC" which is empty and there is no file or folder in it. When I commit to copy a file to it, this error shows up:
Cannot copy item
This device has either stopped responding or has been disconnected
I've no problem with my honor 3c (android 4.4) and other phones on my PC, Also they have MTP option which connects so fast and let me transfer all file and folders.
What should I do?
It's kind of weird because now the phone is recognized and working well via USB 3 but USB 2 still has the above-mentioned problem.
I also have an old pc which I have linux lite, Chalet OS, and lubuntu on it. surprisingly file transfer works on linux lite and chalet OS via USB 1.1 - 2.0.
Can anyone use file transfer on windows via USB 2 port?
Hey man, I just bought the same phone today, 32/3gb and global, when I tried to connect it the first time that happened and I got scared.
I researched a bit and did a few things, deleted the drivers and the device in windows 10 device manager, reinstalled them and factory resetted my phone, and now is working well. I think the factory reset did the trick.
I hope this helps you. Cheers.

Hey. Thanks for sharing your solution. So you've experienced the same problem. Did you test USB 3 before uninstalling drivers and resetting your phone?
Are you able to see your phone's content and transfer via USB 2?

Hello, sorry for the late response, I hope you found a solution early, but if not, I used both USB 2.0 and 3.0 (I think that's what you're referring to) and it did not work, after the reset and unistallation of drivers, both of them worked. I also have to say that I was using the cable issued in the box where the phone came, I'm still using it without trouble.
