Cannot get PC to recognize my Note 3 - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So i try to connect my phone to my PC and all it does is charge the phone. I was able to root the Note with CF's method but i can't get it to appear under devices lime my S4. I tried using the USB 3.0 cable and also a 2.0 cable with the same result, i also tried uninstalling the Samsung drivers and updating them to 1.5.27.0 but no success there either. Any ideas on how i can connect my note and have it seen as a camera?
thanks

ok, thanks i will try
EDIT: It didnt work.
any other suggestions?

anybody??

It should works. If you are using Windows, please make sure you run the Kies3 application, not the previous Kies. If you have not uninstall previous Kies, there would be 2 applications of Samsung Kies.

What about on mac?

Did you try toggling the USB debug off/on to see if that makes any difference ?

I have the same problem as the OP. I am running Windows 8.1 X64 and I tried usb debugging and Kies 3. This is frustrating I am unable to connect to my PC.

Got mine reconnecting by removing drivers under driver properties and then reattached phone and windows installed proper drivers all on its own.

Uninstall in a clean way (using, e.g., Driver Sweeper) any previous installed drivers and re-install this one: Samsung USB Driver for Mobile Phones 1.5.27.0 [Drivers Win 8/7/XP]. Should make it happen.

Use kies 2 not 3 or the drivers alone package and should work.

For me it didn't work with a standard micro USB cable. Just charges only.
I used the USB3 cable that is bundled with the device and it connects no problem. even when connected to a USB 2 port on my PC.
i bought a 3rd party USB3 cable from ebay and this works also.

The issue was from a intel Host USB driver, got Dell pro tech support to troubleshoot the issue for me and we updated the drivers and it worked

I've used mine successfully on several Win 7 computers with USB2 & 3 cables. No additional drivers or Kies needed. The phone shows as a media device right away.

please help me out from this problum any one can do this?:crying:

I also had a problem on a Dell. I did system restore, then it worked again.

I've also got a dell computer and I'm dealing with this exact problem. I've only got USB 3.0 ports on my computer. MTP works fine on other computers though. Could you share your updated drivers?

I doubt my drivers would work as they are specific for my xps 13. But just wipe your chipset drivers, use a registry cleaner to clean it up and reinstall chipset drivers and usb host if you have them

Ccleaner is the best. Make sure you hit yes when it prompts you to backup registry to make sure no boo boo happens

[Q] Samsung Drivers

I'm sure a lot of you have come across this problem before. I am trying to root my samsung epic 4G, but I need samsung drivers. I downloaded the 32 bit and it would not recognize my phone. I tried the 64 and nothing. I also tried a bunch of reinstalling and updating the drive but it still would not recognize it.
I have USB debugging on; I tried mounting it. I tried just having it on the charging option, but no matter what it would not recognize it.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!
Make sure you know if your pc is 32 or 64 bit. Install drivers; reboot without phone in. When pc is completely loaded then plug in your phone.
If you're using a desktop; use the back USB ports and not the front ones.

I solved this by hooking up a small external usb hub
Plug and play. The drivers loaded

2 things you can try...
1) go into device manager and manually load the drivers once connected (they are in the 16_shrewberry folder)
or
2) load up kies

Thanks for your reply.
What is Kies? Can u give me alittle more info
EDIT: I tried manually updating the drivers in device manager by clicking on the " Unknown Device " and browsing to 16_shrewberry folder and making sure "include all subfolders" is checked and windows still says "The driver software for your device is up to date"
EDIT 2: I googled and downloaded Kies and still a No Go... Anybody have any other suggestions ?
I hate 64 bit Os's

Try a different micro USB cable. Mine would show as unknown 90% of the time, I had to keep plugging it back in. The stock cable sucks ass, have any spares around? I used my kindle cable and that works.

I tried another cable from my girlfriends epic and same thing
So that 2 different cables, i've uninstalled/reinstalled/rebooted phone and pc 3 x's, tried to manually install it in devince managers and downloaded Kies (Which takes a LONG TIME to update)
And i still cant get it 2 work, Now its the principle of the thing
yeah laptops and front usb ports tend to have most problems since they are low power ports..
tr restarting you laptop and/or phone

Changing **** for **** doesnt always work lol. Trust me, my wife and I both have the epic and neither of ours would recognize /w w7 64 bit until we used a different cable. Not promising this is 100% the problem, but I have a strong feeling that it is. The samsung USB cable is good for one thing... charging.

I have windows 7 on my PC and I did not installed any drivers, maybe your USB is faulty? Try connecting it into another computer and see..
You shouldn't need drivers for mtp access. Try turning off UAB debugging

Can you post me the link of it and how to install
I didn't even have to install drivers when I use my phone. It should be plug and play if you're just using it for mass storage.

http://www.wugfresh.com/nrt/ Link to his website and to the downloads.
Uploaded 2 pictures, basically click on the Driver Installation Guide
Then follow the steps. When picking a driver, pick the RAW drivers. I tried the first two and didnt work for me.. at least on my Windows 8 setup, (it did when I had 7).
This is also a toolkit if you want to root your phone which was what I was doing at the time lol :good:

Thats how it was on my Windows 7 setup but for some reason on my Windows 8 on my rig and laptop it detected as mass media but kept dcing when I was transferring large files and it wasnt the cord because after updating the drivers it works fine.

[Q] Cannot connect to PC issue, tried everything I can think of...

Having trouble connecting this tablet to anything. I have tried 3 separate computers (Windows 7 on two of them, XP on the other), 3 different cords, USB debugging is checked in settings, and drivers are installed. None of the computers detect it at all, I connect the cord and nothing happens. No sound, and nothing pops up in the device manager of the PC's. It's almost as if the Micro USB port in this tablet is dead.
I want to make sure I have tried everything before I crack it open and take a look inside. I'm not a n00b to androids or tablets. All my devices are rooted and I just installed a ROM in my A200, etc. But this a problem I've never encountered. Any ideas to something else I can try?
Drivers...Acers and those from the sdk.
Try putting tab in apx mode and then connecting...
failing that uninstall ALL drivers then reinstall only the a500 drivers...
Also try opening cmd on the folder which contains adb.exe

Yes you will, unless someone has come up with a driver fix lately. Use xp, Vista or win 7....or linux
Sent from my HTC_PN071 using Tapatalk
Did all of the above steps, no dice.
I opened a cmd window while in apx mode and adb could not find a device.
Tried all of my USB ports on my PC after I reinstalled the drivers.
I really think the micro usb port in this thing is dead but the regular usb port works fine.
I'm lost on what to try next

[Q] USB Connection

Hey guys,
I don't know if this has been asked already, and if it has I apologize for that, but judging by the title you can already assume what issue I have. When I connect my Galaxy S4 i337 to my laptop running Windows 8.1 (I'm not sure if it's RT or not), it keeps saying that my USB device is not recognized. I've tried:
- uninstalling the Samsung drivers then reinstalling them
- uninstalling Kies and drivers, then reinstalling Kies to see if it would recognize and automatically download the drivers
- completely turning off my laptop, removing the battery for 3 minutes
- different USB ports (all 3)
- connect it to the computer with USB debugging on and off
Can anyone help?
Try this, you also have to allow unsigned drivers

Now everything is connected well, as in my laptop recognizes it, but it doesn't show up on the Devices and Drivers section so I can explore the phone via my pc. Also autoplay doesn't pop up.
