[Q] USB Massive storage driver

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!

kies problem

Hello,
recently I bought an i5800 (android 2.1-update 1), because I wanted to have rooted phone, I read informations about this on couple sites.
I decided to use z4root.
Now when I connecting my phon to the PC kies shows only Phone+Contacts.
Doesent show any data on the SD, and also doesn't show any informations about version of firmware...
How can I fix this?
Best Regards
v
PS: I also installed Link2SD, AppsToSD and Titanium Backup

update to latest version of kies and also un-install the USB drivers from device manager -> disconnect phone and connect it to other USB port open kies and the driver should install again hope this can fix your problem

Nope, that doesn't work either
Kies updated to 2.0.0.11032_12...
On the phone USB Debug mode disabled, USB Options-> ~Ask after connection.
Kies still does not sees properly the phone, and phone does not shows the window with options Kies,~media player, ~mass storage.....

I had exactly the same (infuriating) problem.
I fixed mine by uninstalling Kies, uninstalling the USB drivers then installing java (I know this shouldn't make a difference, but it seemed to).
I was using Windows 7 64 bit.
I found the Samsung_USB_drivers_for_mobile_phones.exe file & saved this to my desktop (before uninstalling).
I think Kies saves it to program files x86/samsung/kies/usb drivers/
Then after uninstall of everything, then installing java,
right click on the driver and run as an administrator.
When it asks where to install it, place it in the /program files/samsung/kies/usb drivers/ folder (not the x86 version, install it to the normal one).
Then find the Kies install file and right click that & install as an administrator to, but let Kies install this to the x86 program files location (default).
Then when it's completely installed (skip finding media, you can do that later), turn off the phone, then connect it to the USB cable.
Then turn the phone ON and let the drivers install as normal.
Just let it do it's thing and after a while, after all installations are complete, Kies will show your phone & will let you see all the folders, not just the contacts list & will show you the firmware version and everything.
Hope this helps.
I made sure I 'ran as administrator' on both install files.
Not sure which bit helped, but it worked for me (and I've tried everything, believe me)
*EDIT*
google "Why does Samsung Kies not detect my Samsung mobile phone" for the same info
**EDIT** x2
on looking in my /progam files x86/samsung/kis/usb drivers folder, it sems that Kies has reapplied the driver there & removed it from the 64 bit program files path. Ether way, one of the above steps fixed it, perhaps it's just that I ran everything ad an admin, who knows ?

Installation of java wouldn't make any difference, unless the installer was java based. The admin rights might have done the trick.

Actually, ignore my last post.
Kies now cannot see my Galaxy Apollo anymore, (even though every other program on my PC can !! including WMP12 !!)
I'm sick of this.
What's so hard about detecting a connected device ? !!
Sorry for the rant, but I'm getting really annoyed by this piece of software (Grrr !)

Yeah, I do whay you write, it's the same on my pc... now everything is .. not working
I think it's not only a Kies problem+USB drivers but also system on the phon has been changed thats why my phone is not properly working with kies.
Of course, still when I trying to connect my phone to pc I don't see on my phone screen options window that was before z4root/app2sd/link2sd - I mean Kies, media, storage
I see that there is a problem with a part of the Kies - DeviceManager is crashing after phone connecting..

Well now, the only way I can connect, is by (control panel) > uninstall programs > uninstall SAMSUNG USB drivers.
(while the phone is NOT connected).
Then launch Kies.
Then select the menu (tools > install driver)
Then wait while it installs the drivers (again !!)
After waiting for about a minute, I reconnect my GT-I5800 to my PC via the (not so universal) USB cable.
I then wait till all the (your device has been installed) messages stop.
Then I have normal Kies control of my Apollo.
But, if I disconnect it, then try to reconnect it, I get no joy.
It will sit at "connecting" forever.
The only way I can reconnect, is to rinse & repeat.
(I.E. uninstall the drivers & 'GOTO 10', which is really starting to boil my p!ss as I have no idea why this is happening).
Every single piece of poo software on my PC can see my phone, except Kies.
Does anyone have any ideas as it'd driving me mad !! :`(

try this
uninstall kies and all samsung drivers from ur pc
goto download mode (does not need root & it's safe)-(do not open odin)
a list of 3-5 drivers will get installed
then unplug the device, remove and re-insert the battery
install kies then connect ur phone by the usual way

I have the same problem with my phone. An other i5800 can connect successfully with my laptop, KIES and the same cable, but my phone doesn't.

It works...
what I've done....
Back to factory settings in the phone... so just great, the best corrective actions that I ever had :/
I want my HTC Uni back...
*edit*
Kies works 100% ok eaven now sees the update to froyo
so problem was changes that was made by one of the additional software on the phone
Thread can b closed

I also had this problem from long time. I found the reason was the Kies (both 1.5xx and 2.XX) versions are unable to use the default USB driver thats come along with Windows OS.
So the best solution is uninstall the USB driver from Windows device manager and after that install the USB driver from Kies. Then definitely your phone will be recoginized with Kies.
Note: After Uninstalling USB driver and before installing the USB driver from Kies sometimes windows itself tries to install the default USB driver so disable it when its promted.
Hope this helps....

Install latest kies (clean install). Before connecting the phone to usb remove the SD card and start in kies. The phone would be detected and drivers would be installed. Disconnect, reinsert SD card and connect again. Problem will be solved. Worked for me.

[Solution] Android MTP driver install error with KIES 2.x I9100 (Galaxy S2)

Hi all,
Yesterday I stayed till 3 AM trying to flash the new firmware to my 9100, but KIES was so unstable that I decided to re-install.
We all know if we simply install Kies under XP, there is an issue with an Android MTP driver failing to install. No matter what you do, it won't install. This is the driver that Kies requires to work in order to sync contents and flash new firmwares.
After trying different options and settings, the solution is quite simple. Follow the steps (XP tested):
1.- Remove Kies entirely.
2.- Remove Samsung USB Drivers
3.- Reboot.
4.- Install latests .NET framework.
5.- Download and install latest Windows Media Player (ver 11 for XP). This is the key, since it installs a User mode driver framework used by Kies.
6.- Reboot
7.- Download and install latest Kies. Reboot.
6.- Plug in your phone. It will detect everything.
8.- Start Kies.
This should make it.
Hope it helps!
Cherni.

I had Rooted and Custom ROM-ed with AOSP GingerMOD.
Then when connected to PC via cable, W7 failed to install MTP driver.
Heres what worked.
Turn off USB Debugging on the phone. Reconnect via USB storage mode.
Voila!
Am not using Samsung Kies. so dont know whether it will work with the same trick.

He said version 11 for xp lol.
BTW, for those of you with windows 7 enterprise N - The "N" means no multimedia drivers, so media player would not be enough.
You need to download some 300+MB package which I don't remember the name. and then media player.

I meant W7!

Well I just tried this and it didn't work, am losing hope here...I already tried everything and nothing works

All this started when I updated from version 2.3.3 to 2.3.4 through KIES

Hi, were you able to solve? I'm stuck at the same point, tried almost everything and i'm still getting the MFT driver error with my Galaxy S 2.
OS is WinXP 32bit, I tried before with Kies version 2.0.3.11082_152_2, then yesterday with 2.0.3.11082_152_4, no luck.
I tried the suggested Windows Media Player 11 procedure, i did the whole process as written in the 1st post (installed .net 4, then WMP11, then reboot, then Kies, then reboot again) and it didn't worked.
Before that i tried with USB debugging mode, i tried following what Kies says (connect device, got the error, disconnect the device then go to "tool -> the crap that should be supposed to repair drivers but that truly does nothing", then reconnect the device just to get the error again), I tried a tool i found somewhere on the internet while reading HUNDREDS of pages of users having the same error (Samsung engineers, that means that you really SUCK!) "FileSearcherforKiesFix" to find files with long extension on my SD, deleted some files (was only some thumbnails), NOPE, still getting the same F****n' error
So, were you able to solve in some way this error? How?
Thank you for your help, and sorry for my english (i'm Italian).

and if that doesn't work...try a different USB port on your computer. I have found that only one of the 4 on my t410 thinkpad plays nicely with the samsung usb drivers...
having said that, i have sworn off kies entirely and will only use Odin,

I'm on the Galaxy SII and was having similar problems. Went to the samsung website, DLed the USB driver, then to get the MTP to work: Turn off Debugging, go into "wireless and network", then into USB Utilities, unplug usb, click connect to PC, then plugged it back in, and bingo, we have a winner.
I didn't read the entire thread to see if this method was already posted, to f'ing tired!
Hopes this helps.
edit: looks like Kragusk did a similar (exactly the same?) install. So yeah, what he said....

the fix
This fix for windows XP was discovered by a chap named Dennis.
The problem is caused by some drivers from WMP11 failing to install correctly.
(WMP11 contains the MTP drivers, nothing to do with Samsung or USB drivers)
You just need to re/install them
rename C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\wudfrd.sys xxx_wudfrd.sys
rename C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\wudfpf.sys xxx_wudfpf.sys
rename C:\WINDOWS\system32\wudfhost.exe xxx_wudfhost.exe
rename C:\WINDOWS\system32\wudfsvc.dll xxx_wudfsvc.dll
rename C:\WINDOWS\system32\wudfx.dll xxx_wudfx.dll
rename C:\WINDOWS\system32\wudfplatform.dll xxx_wudfplatform.dll
rename C:\WINDOWS\system32\wudfcoinstaller.dll xxx_wudfcoinstaller.dll
Then run this file (umdf.exe) found inside the windows media player 11 install
(Hint: download then open in winrar to find the file)
Sorry as a new person I can't post a hotlink to a file.

This not only cures Kies, but almost all other Media Player connection problems as well!

Kragusk said:
Go to Samsung Kies software, on top left of the window, click the menu > Driver recovery.
Let it reinstall drivers
After driver installation finished, go to your phone, Settings> Application > Development, tick USB debugging mode.
Under USB debugging mode connect your phone to the PC with USB.
It installs correctly!
Disconnect from PC
Untick USB debugging mode
Connect again
and it works!

[Q] Marvell sd8686 LAN SDIO not working... also webcam

This applies to a specific device not on these forums but running Windows 8
I upgraded from Windows 7 on my Viliv N5 and now the webcam and a "Marvell 802.11 sd8686 Wireless LAN SDIO" won't start... I checked both online and computer manufacture... I got drivers from the computer manufacture that hard reboots and one from online with: "Error code:10 Device Cannot Start"
As for the webcam I might have to call the now shutdown business so I'm hoping for a fix...

Did you do an in-place upgrade, or did you do a clean install that replaced Win7? In-place is supposed to work, but in my experience it almost never does it perfectly. Clean install is the way to go. Copy your driver files to a flashdrive or something first in case Win8 can't find them, but usually it can.
Alternate option: Uninstall theoffending drivers (entirely; use Device Manager and remove the driver software). Then reboot the PC and see if it tries to load the drivers from Windows Update. This *should* find them. If it doesn't, try installing the drivers from disc / downloaded files.

Tried Windows Update as soon as I did a CLEAN install... wiped HDD incl recovery >.<
I can provide device id... and the website gives me a corrupt driver
Edit: Will do a "Dirty Install" if I reinstall stock will my key expire?

[Q] PC always try to install MTP drivers with N7

I have a Nexus 7 that used to be able to be seen (and trnasfer files) on my Win 7 64-bit Ultimate pc. It is not visible in Explorer now- think it happened after upgrade to 4.2.2
I have tried various ways and means from this site and others but still unsuccessful. My pc kept wanting to install MTP USB drivers everytime I plug the N7 into it even when I have it set as PTP; and the drivers always failed.
I downloaded the Universal naked Drivers and tried to install it as well but problem is that my device only show up as MTP USB (under portable devices) instead of as N7; and under that the drivers is always the failed MTP USB drivers. I cannot browse to install Universal Drivers here cos the pc will not accept it.
Really running out of my wits. Any advises please?
Thanks.

I had initial problems connecting to my pc after installing all the drivers from a toolkit. After searching, I followed a tip and installed pdanet on my phone and pdanet for android on my pc. Now I connect exactly like my phone or other storage with full access to the user storage on the n7 from the pc. Win 7 pro 64bit.
