Hello
I just got this phone
I thought that just by pluging it to my pc (windows 7) and selecting usb massive storage it would work, but it doesn't
Do I need a specific driver installed on window? If so.. Where do I find it?
I tried installing Kies, but that didn't help
Thank you in advance
Drivers are here
Brother you can download the drivers for windows from here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7238660&postcount=1
You have to mount SDCard in Notification area.
Mass Storage mode does not need special drivers.
Trying to install the drivers from the previous reply throws an error (I have windows 7 64 bits)
And.. activating usb from the notification area actually works for usb mass storage mode
Thank you!
Download and install the latest kies version from samsung site or just update the one in your PC online. If it still does not work, use the driver recovery option in kies.
Thanks a lot to everyone
I feel like a newbie here..
Even when the Kies installation throws an error, it detected my phone after several minutes.
How is this application useful? I can do most of the things (like transfer files) without it.
And even on the development forum they don't use it for upgrading!
i am currently using S2 i9100g. When i connected my s2 to the pc, it failed to find the driver/ install it.
How to solve this problem?
i've tried using :
-Enable usb debugging from Menu > Settings > Applications
-return to home screen
-plug usb cable in
-pull down status bar
-press ‘ connect usb storage’ button
or try this method:
Alternatively, without USB debugging enabled
Go to Settings > Wireless & Network > USB utilities and click the button > then (and ONLY then) plug in USB cable
But it still doesnt work for me
*I don have SD card on my phone, so does that means that i can't connect my s2 using cable to my PC (Vista)??
Do you have Kies installed?
u mean having kies installed in the pc or phone???
i got it in my phone already
Download and install kies on your pc from Samsung website. then connect your phone and will install the drivers.
If it shows i9100 or Galaxy S2 with a yellow triangle you need Google ADB driver. You may have to force the driver to install.
thanks guys.. all i need to do is just download kies to PC.. im new to android.. sorry

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?

Thx for your help!!!
Am trying to get my printer to recognise my phone as a usb flash drive. The printer recognises a usb device is connected but doesn't recognise the phone, as Samsung phones seem to need dedicated drivers.
Is there anyway to add files to root of phone so a section of its memory could be used as plug and play flash drive.
.
I have the same problem on my windows xp system. It recognises it as a MTP device but doesn't find any drivers for it.
Anyone got a solution ?
