I did my upgrade to the 1.3 ROM, but now my laptop is looking for a new USB driver

Any pointers on where the new USB driver is? I use my 8525 to connect to the internet.

Just to double check, go into start>settings>connections(tab)>USB to PC
Make sure the box is unticked.

USB mass storage not work on Mac

I can connect the i9000 to my PC using mass storage mode and see it as an USB disk, but it doesn't work on my Mac, it recognize nothing (I have chosen to mount the drive after connected to the USB as I did the same when connecting to Windows). I can see there is a Samsung USB device connected in the System Profiler but the disk won't mount, any clues?
Thanks.

I have the very same problem. Works in PC, not on my iMac.

You need to enable USB debugging and after that it will work.

Yep. Speaking as a Mac OS X user I can confirm this works.
The is no way to flash from a Mac though. However, I have high hopes for ROM Manager

May I know how this thing done? On the Mac or on the phone and the location? Thank you!

I got it:
Settings > Application > Development
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App

Of course it's to be done on the phone. Sorry, I should have been more specific.

I've enabled USB Debugging and can't get my mac to recognize my phone to use it as a USB storage device?!?! I'm running ICS 4.0.3 XXLPB. I didn't have any problem at first with GB. Any suggestions? Thanks! =)
EDIT: Silly me, wrong forum my phone is i9100.... Still would appreciate any help.

Helium

Has anyone got helium working with the verizon lg g2? I can't seem to get the pc app to see the phone how it needs to. When i try to run the msi installer in tools i get a network error for some reason.

Do you have USB Debugging enabled? Are you using MTP when you connect the cable? If so you can't. You need to change it from MTP and use Internet and then Ethernet. Once you do that you should see USB Debugging pop up in your notification bar. Once you see that you should be able to use helium.

Cannot get PC to recognize my Note 3

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.

i Did every thing kies 3 and mobogenie etc but no result im using windows 7 64 bit ,
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

OTG Does not work directly on the s3 neo because the usb port doesnt have enough power, you can try to use a external powered otg cable.
Or do it like me:
There is an APP which can enable otg, required ROOT privileges, and you can use USB stuff like:
USB-Mouse, USB-Keyboard, USB-Stick(i tested 1-16GB), USB-HardDrive(ex. 500gb external usb HDD), Charge an other device/phone/Bluetoothspeaker, and so on.
App required ROOT privileges!!!!!
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3-neo/themes-apps/otg-enabler-t3423727 (I'am using this)
or you use: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3-neo/themes-apps/root-neotg-otg-enabler-t3438645 (not tested by me, just read the comments)
On the app(first link) You just install it and open it, tap the switch, allow su access, and you'll see your device getting Charged(Top left power led is glowing), and usb devices do work. If you'r done, just tap again the switch and use it normally and yes you can close/minimize the app while otg is enabled
Don't Charge your Device, i dont know what can happen so dont try it, may be nothing happens but i dont want risk my device!
Sorry for my weak english(-grammar)
