Hey all,
I just switched from a TP2(MightyROM) to an Epic. Installed Kies and then the Samsung Drivers. When I connected the phone via USB is Kies just sits there with the "connecting the device" animation on the right.
I feel like a noob again. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
It will probably work once the update that includes touchwiz 3 is released.

Hello Guys...GretoVerno here fellow Samsung Galaxy S Vibrant Owner...
I have this phone and everytime i connect it to usb i Get the Message
"USB Device Not Recognized" error message...I have installed all the drivers i could possible find on the internet and the error still pops up...i ahve tried using the phone in USB Debugging mode to no avail what so ever...
Someone Please help if there's a genius out there...I really love this phone
Uninstall the Samsung drivers off your computer. Then reinstall make sure that have the correct version windows 32 bit or 64 bit for the correct operating format. Make sure you give admin rights to it. you can find these drivers in the Noob bible by S15274N in the Gen section. I am assuming there is not a problem with your phone. If you have a friend, check it on their computer, that's an easy way to rule out phone issues. That should resolve what ever problem you have.
There ia another way to check, that is have a friend with odin (or you) and see if Odin recognizes, if it does, then you got it solved or at the very least Odin back to stock and reinstall a new rom, this will solve all these issues as well.
Hope you get it, good luck
Had an issue with my brother in laws comp not recognizing his vibrant. Took an hour or two to get his phone recognized. I think we ended up using the drivers from pdanet instead of the official danny drivers. First try getting your phone to work on another comp. Will help narrow down the issue by 50%

Windows cannot recognize my vibrant!
Hopefully someone can help me out as I am having the
same problem with my computer not recognizing my phone.
The thing is that I am already running Froyo stock 2.2
and at the time I was able to update it to 2.2 my
computer recognized my phone without a problem. I have
been reading the forums for a while now and the only
time anyone had this problem was when they first bought
the phone when it was released but here is my problem.
After updating Kies mini and installing the official
Samsung drivers from the Samsung website I plug in the
phone and i get the error that windows does not
recognize the device. I have tried this on Windows Xp
and Windows 7 on 2 different laptops and got the same
error everytime. So what I did was while on Windows Xp I
uninstalled the unknown driver and I kept plugging and
unplugging the phone and uninstalling the unknown driver
until I got my computer to finally recognize my phone.
Once my computer recognized my phone I Then started
downloading the recent update, when the download was
done as soon as my phone went into download mode my
computer kicked out my phone and gave me the error that
windows does not recognize the device and at that time
Kies mini gave me the emergency recovery notice which I
didnt have to use because the phone booted fine without
fail.
You should also know that prior to the recent
update from tmobile for minor bug fixes I tried to root
my vibrant using the superoneclick root program. Upon
doing this after fighting with my vibrant and my laptop
to communicate with each other my computer recognized
the phone and I attempted to root. Then I got the
looping message and at that time windows did not
recognize my device which then messed up my modem and I
had to do a system restore. So after weeks of fustration
trying to root and now not able to downlaod the recent
update I am now asking for your help as XDA has been
there for us all. I have tried samsung drivers, kies mini
drivers and pdanet drivers and get the same windows
doesn't recognize my device everytime. Does anyone have
any ideas as what I can do to get my computer to
recognize my phone as I can not do anything until my
computer and my vibrant get along. Your help is greatly
appreciated XDA thanks for all that you do!

You know that's the only thing that I haven't tried should I pick one up from T-Mobile or were should I get one?
I am getting the same error and i tried a buddy's cord and it still did the same thing. Not really sure what happened. My phone was working fine just a few days ago. I am wondering if it has anything to do with the large amount of Windows Updates that just happened.
Try uninstalling your drivers and install these. I had the same problem and then I used this and it has worked on every computer. Heck even worked when I hooked up my SGS2

I had the same issue. It is a phone problem and I had to get a warranty replacement. No combo of cables or drivers would fix mine.
Well after uninstalling and reinstalling, trying new drivers, restarting countless number of times, troubleshooting through the device manager, I had the genius idea to restart my phone in a last ditch effort before i gave up and it worked.
Now i feel somewhat like a dodo. Rule #1 - Restart

Have you rebooted since you installed the drivers?
Well I tried those drivers from that link you provided and no dice. Im going to pick up a new usb cord from Tmobile tomorrow and see if that might be the problem. I can always use a 2nd cord for charging I guess.

That would be the logical next step.. just to verify, you have restarted the phone and computer since installing the drivers right? If you have then its most likely the cord. Its weird these cords seem to have been giving me problems more than any previously owned ones ie regular usb or even my amp cord which I step on and rip out the amp more than i'd like to admit

Makes sure that when you uninstall your drivers to restart your PC then reinstall and give a shot. Of course, also make sure you are using the right 64x or 86x driver.

Anyone familiar with an error trying to connect to Kies that says "cannot start the service on the device, please disconnect then reconnect"?
The tab doesnt go into "Kies mode".
Possibly something to do with the kernal?
uncheck USB debugging!

This is probably it right here ^ but also, K Rich, let us know what ROM and Kernel you're using. Thanks!
well, its not USB debugging. possibly starburst rom or pershoot kernal as the issue?
I had same problem.
The quick solution is factory reset.
Or you have to find a file with strange(illegal) name.
I suppose kies scan the files on tab during connection and because the illegal name found the connection process fail.
Happens everytime
It happens to me everytime. Easy way to check if Kies is broken is to try and enable it in settings "Wireless and networking". If you select Kies via Wifi and a dialog does not pop up then the Kies service is broken. Only way to fix it then for me is a factory reset which is a pain since I have to reinstall everything then.
Does anybody know of an easier fix. I am on a p7500 32Gb 3G and Wi-fi. Also as a side note: this kernel also does not seem to work with Plex streaming. No fix unless I root I think. This is the south african vodacom/fone galaxy 10.1
Regards
That same error message just started happening to me too. My SGS i9000m used to connect to Kies fine, but I just accepted a new Kies update and let it install, and now in Kies ver 2.0.2.11071_128 it gives me that error message.
Same thing just happened to my girlfriend, who has the identical phone to me. Once she accepted the recent Kies update, it doesn't see her phone.
But, Windows 7 (64-bit, for both of us) does see the phone.
And, the Kies Air app does work for me!
My phone is "lightly rooted" with Super One Click root. (As in, I haven't used Odin to put new ROM's on it, and I haven't messed with the phone much.)
Is there a way for me to get Android 2.3 onto it, through Kies or Kies Air?
Thanks guys. Sorry, I'm a noob.
hope it can help
I had the same problem with galaxy 2 and tab 8.9 (gt-p7300)
With galaxy 2 solved by shut down the phone (press power for 10 sec) with kies on and usb connected to comp.
With tab 8.9 the only way that worked for me is a factory reset, the same method of galaxy 2 was not working.
I hope it can help
reboot+usb connected -> fixed Kies

Thanks dude, the reboot of my galaxy s2 with usb connected made Kies detect my phone again.
I owe you a beer, maybe two.
Cheers,
Stefan.
I noticed that disabling pattern protection, allows Kies to recognize the tablet.
EDIT: not always, sorry
Even though this is an old thread, I would like to confirm that rebooting SGS 2 with USB connected, caused Kies to recognize my phone. Another method that works with limited success is changing the USB port on the PC to which the phone is connected.
Thanks.

I have the AT&T version of the Samsung Galaxy S4 with the latest Kangabean Google Edition rom installed. Most everything works great, except for PC connectivity. The first time the phone was never recognized by Windows at all. The phone saw that it was plugged in, but the computer couldn't see it. I tried uninstalling Kies and all Samsung drivers, rebooting, and reinstalling Kies. This worked a little bit as my computer now sees it, and Kies tries to connect but is stuck endlessly trying to connect. I searched all over the web last night and tried many different things, but this is as far as I got. Any advice?
I am also using the USB cable that came with my phone and a USB port on the back of my computer.
Thanks!
I have the samsung USB drivers installed on my windows 10 cpu and every time I plug the phone in, I get the dreaded USB not reconized notification. The drivers have been uninstalled and re-installed with no luck...tried USB debugging in developer options and no luck. Tried installing kies and smart switch but get the dreaded application failed to start...side by side configuration message appears for both.
This is a stock non rooted Telus S7 Edge that was carrier unlocked so I could switch to Tmobile here in Canada. (Way cheaper plan).
Phone works except for being not reconized.
I am wanting to root, so I can use the bluetooth internet tethering option that is not available with a stock Telus rom.
Any help would be greatly appreciated..?
Go to C\Windows\INF
Look for wpdmtp and wpdmtphw files,right-click on them and click on install.
Thanks to Microsoft for making simple things difficult..........
Thank you....worked liked a charm!!?
Oops...spoke to soon..pulling my hair out here?? I get the same message still...even tries on another windows 10 cpu with different USB cable..same results??
