Try uninstalling the current drivers you have for it then just replugging your phone in that should download them but if not you can always just uninstall and Google the drivers you're looking for and download them that way BTW I don't think you can root if you're on OK3 but I haven't been on here in a while so I'll double check and just make sure

If it says "device unplugged", that may indicate that the cable you're using is bad, or that the USB port on your computer is bad. Worst case, the physical jack on your phone is loose.
The MTP error can be maddening. If it continues on other cables and other USB ports, try going into your computer's Device Manager and uninstalling the samsung device drivers, then reinstall them.
You might also try using Samsung Kies software to install the drivers, but be sure to turn Kies off before attempting to root because Kies blocks Odin.

HELP - device driver not successfully installed?

Hi
I have been trying to fix this problem for hours. I have searched the forum etc trying to find resolution but cannot.
I soft bricked my phone during the recent ota update and was able to fix it using odin.
I was trying to install the update via mini kies but running into a problem
When I plug my phone via usb my computer won't recognize my phone. I keep getting an error saying "usb device not recognized."
I tried uninstalling all of my usb root drivers and let them all reinstall. However when I plug my vibrant in, it says "device driver was not successfully installed"
I don't know what else to do. Can anyone help? Thanks.

messing around with kies, now pc cant see phone

after the last few days of kies craziness with everyone flashing last update, I thought I would give it a go, having never used Kies to flash before.
Anyway I plugged in phone no firmware update, done a search, so thought i'd try older version of Kies to try the registry hack, anyway, long story short that didnt work and having uninstalled and installed kies several times my pc just stopped picking up my phone completely driver would not install.
Again tried everything deleting drivers etc uninstalling kies and starting fresh but nothing, I now have latest kies but no USB drivers are installed and have no idea what to do, my pc will not pick up phone even in mass storage mode the drivers wont install.
I have since managed to update phone to JPA using pc at work, but still need pc at home working, I have tried all installations with antivirus off incase some asks..
so anyone please..is there anyway to get everything back to the way it was with kies and USB drivers all installed and working??
System restore your pc.
did think of that...running windows 7 didnt turn on system restore....

Tried that as well, didnt make a difference, tried manually installing pointing it towards downloaded driver, no luck.

[need help] usb device not recognized!!!

hey guys,
I don't know if this still a problem with people. but I'm on win7 64bit and I can't seem to connect my nexus s, to my computer. I always have to upload from computer to dropbox then download the file from DB on my phone... usb plug doesn't work. I tried the same cable with my wifes Samsung vibrant and it recognizes it, but when i plug in my nexus s the debug icon shows up on my phones status bar for like 1 second and disappears. then window on my compter says "USB Device Not Recognized"
need help please.
What does it say in device manager (in windows)? Maybe the driver is wrong...

do u have a right drivers installed
have a look here and check Google USB Driver
I'm having the same problem. I have tried both my computers and multiple cables but I continue to get the error. When I try to update the drivers or reinstall them Windows says the drivers are up to date. I've tried every USB port on both computers as well.
I even took the phone into a repair place to see if perhaps the USB port on the phone was malfunctioning and they couldn't find anything wrong with it.

Try installing pdanet, I had a similar issue when I rooted my ns and installing the pdanet drivers solved the problem.

I've been having the problem also and none of the fixes worked. Not even PDA net. You'd think that the more people have this problem so one would have found a real fix by now.

I can't get the PDAnet drivers to install - during the installation process, my phone has to plugged in, which of course the installation program can't see.
Weird thing is if I remove the battery and then plug the usb in and start the phone, the drivers show up in the device manager but they always disappear before I can unlock the phone - appears the USB connection on my Nexus S is broken...can;t think of anything else.

Galaxy Note 10.1 Won't connect to Kies

Has anyone else had this problem. I was wanting to update software but my computer wont recognize the tablet. Kies just sits and spins.

Try a different USB port.
Are the android device drivers installed in your computer?

when I plug the 8013 into a USB port I get an unknown device error.
I tried to update the driver (pointing to the SAMSUNG driver I installed) and I get a correct driver already installed message.

ok here we go again.
THIS Has been repeated over and over.
WITH Tablet plugged in go into device manger . click on the device with the yellow mark and uninstall it .Be sure to tick the check box to uninstall drivers if you have the option
unplug table and reboot.
Uninstall Kies and reboot computer ..
DO NOT CONNECT THE TABLET BACK TO COMPUTER..
Do google search for and install usbdview..
Just unzip it and run it
usbview.. open it and REMOVE ALL USB Adapters
RE DOWNLOAD KIES 2.6 I THINK THE OLDER Version for 4.1 android . new VERSION will not work
Run kies and let it update
Exit kies
Reboot computer
Run kies and let it check and d/load updates again if it needs to.
Plug in your TABLET .
If you Still have ISSUES. then you need to add at after running usbview Follow the procedure for installing un certified drivers for windows 7 . Search the internet for exact instructions for your machine. Only applies to uufi bios.
Good Luck . The above procedure works for any Driver install issue for Windows and has worked for years.... OF Course if there is no other problems . The issue is windows registeries for usb devices do NOT EVER Get purged .

Followed instructions and managed to connect 8013. Unfortunately, the rumors that there was an update to KIT KAT available were the result of
a misunderstanding. Still nice to know I can connect via KIES if need be.
The process is a bit scarey. I had some problems getting my bluetooth mouse back and my USB DAC audio.
Thanks again.

I might should have mentioned that sometimes after usbdview you could have to re install other usb devices.Its rare.. If you know exactly what your dac uses you can always NOT Uninstall it. But if you go that route and the instructions fail. your not really trouble shooting without taking all usb devices out .. As far as the bluetooth.. i am guessing you have a usb bluetooth dongle? or internal bluetooth to usb of some kind..
Glad its working for you now.. my Instructions are not always well written. I just know in my head how to do things. not so great at explaining.. OH My windows training was Direct from Microsoft online
just try to connect your note to usb port that behind of your CPU

Help someone here can such a problem. Tried different drivers does not help. Can not

Hello, I have SM G930V encountered such a problem. I want to update to 7.0 but when I transfer the phone to the bootloader and connect usb in the task manager on the drivers it weighs the exclamation mark! I tried different drivers but without successful in Odin does not show com port! What do I need help?
Ok, going to take a crack at this. If you have the drivers installed, when your phone is plugged into the pc, delete the exclamation mark, unplug your phone and plug it back in.
Should install the drivers.

Might not help, but I downloaded smart switch and it automatically installs the drivers and there's an option too reinstall drivers, and Odin and ADB all work.

It sounds like he plugged his phone in to the computer prior to installing the drivers, so it's now installed as an unknown device.
Windows won't search for updated drivers until the unknown device is either deleted, or he goes in and manually updates the drivers from the device manager.
Deleting it and letting windows install is by far the easiest way to accomplish this.
I know my replies can be long, but would rather give too much info, than not enough.
