Rooted S7 Edge and can not connect to PC - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers

I recently used https://forum.xda-developers.com/ve...-to-notes-root-install-xposed-unroot-t3411039 to root my S7 Edge
Now after root I cannot connect my S7 to my PC. When I plug it in Windows makes the connection noise but it is nowhere to be found, also on my phone there is no menu to tell the phone how to connect like it used to have. There was no mention of this on the guide either.

Go to settings/Developer Options
Scroll down about half way and look for USB configuration.
Try setting it to MTP or PTP and see if that works.

Mr. kardes4 you didn't get the Mr. neo1691's point.
He want to access the Internet of his PC/laptop into his Galaxy without using Wifi
And this mobile ap let's to share the Internet of our Galaxy's "Internet" over PC/Laptop. and he want Vice-Versa.
Mr. neo1691 want the app that make the USB of Galaxy turn into the LAN kind of wire. And if we plug in the USB into our Galaxy, the PC/Laptop's internet starts working on the PHONE.
Right Mr. neo1691.

You got my point Mr madhuranand007... Thats exactly wat i want to know... there should be a way fo doing that...?
It can be done with changing a wifi card to Access Point mode, but you don't have any, right?
Through USB... hmm, you will need an USB Host option, but our CPU doesn't support that.
BT it can work, but I don't see any post to proove that. I know it can be done at SE P990. If you're an programmer, write app for that

use internet on galaxy 3 via pc?laptop
Hi evry1 ...
m using Samsung Galaxy 3 5801..
if it is possible to access internet through my pc/laptop pls tell me step by step procedure to do so..
Thanks in advance
Till date what i found via all forums that its not possible to share Internet via USB to Android..
looking forward for any positive response from senior member's...
Hey guys... i just stumbled upon some article in the newspaper that u can use ur laptop as a wifi router to share internet connection with your mobile devices..!!!!!
is it possible guys..!!!!
i am keepin my fingers crossed
Yes you can do that but not via USB.
what you need:
1. a laptop or pc with wifi adapter.
2. win 7. (this is not for vista and XP)
3. a tool like "Connectify" that is free.
this is very simple, just follow the instructions from "Connectify".
Good luck

Well, as far as I know there is no software to do it for you.
But still you have an option, you must set up an "ad hoc" network connection.
this will share Internet over your wifi or wireless LAN adapter.
Its not hard to do that just Google the "ad hoc" for instruction.

Connectify is working with win 7!
probably your problem is from the wifi setting of the cell phone.
For the other software (I'm not sure) but you can try virtual router.
and ... Internet from USB? I don't think it's possible yet because we need an enabled USB Host mode phone.
I think some people are working on that but it's still way to go.

My One And Only Problem With 2.3.3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Everything else works great for me in this build. No color change, no battery discharge.....The only issue i have with this build is that i cannot connect any other device with Wireless Tethering, or USB Tethering. 2.3.2 worked fine for me with either but today i tested and tried to connect and was unsucessful with both. How is everything holding up for you guys? If you had the problem how did you solve it. Thanks.

Testing now. Will report back in just a moment.
Okay, so I was able to get USB tethering to work immediately (surprisingly my Google Cr-48 didn't need any configuration) but I'm having a little trouble with WiFi tether. I'm going to test a few more things and then get back to you (just FYI this was posted via USB tethering!)
And got it figured out. Apparently just had no data connection where I was sitting. Odd. So again I was able to get it to find the network and am posting this edit from the wireless hotspot. (Its slow because I'm on edge but w/e)
And one last update: I was able to get wireless tether to work first try on my MacBook Pro however when I tried USB tethering, it was a different story. I plugged in the phone, turned on USB tethering and watched it cycle on then immediately off. I can't seem to figure out how to get this to change and my wife probably won't let me do much more testing on it since I have my Cr-48 to play around on lol

Interesting. It sounds like your USB tethering issue is similar to the one I was having on Mac OSX (see edited post above) but not quite the same since I did not get an error, it merely turned off. I wish I knew more about tethering but this is the first phone I've ever gotten it to work successfully at all so I'm at a bit of a loss when it comes to troubleshooting.
Just for posterity though you should identify what operating system your computer is running so we can figure out if this is a Mac issue or if it applies to Windows as well. Also, just to make sure, your signature says you're running 2.3.3 stock, is that correct? (I ask because my signature is not accurate; it says I'm on CM7rc1 which is not true: I'm on stock 2.3.3 with Netarchy's 1.2.5 CFS kernel)
I'm on vista right now. And my signature is accurate

Okay, later tonight or tomorrow I'll test wireless and USB tethering on my Win7 partition.
Alright, I was able to test Windows 7 and here is what happened. I had a lot of issues at first getting it to work. It got stuck on identifying and I had to reboot my phone to get it to actually recognize the network. I did however eventually get it to work for both hotspot and USB tether. Also, I had a similar issue for the USB tether that I was having on MacOSX but it was solved when Windows unsuccessfully installed the drivers (you know the popup it gives when you plug it in). Which I find odd because until it FAILED the option would say "Connecting", "Connected" then "Disconnected".
Interestingly enough I randomly decided to test it on my Cr-48 again and no longer am able to get USB tethering to work. It connects but is unable to actually get internet. Odd.
No problems at all. Tested the hotspot on a Windows 7 machine as well as one running XP. Upgraded to 2.3.3 the manual route. Cheers!
it won't really affect me none because I barely use it. Just tested it to see if it worked. I also noticed that some of my albums are split in two. These are the only two problems I am having.

KIES wireless?

Today there was a new KIES update and it seems that there will be a wireless connection to it... but how?
i think the touchwiz update will have the capabilities for the wireless Kies... did you get the touchwize update? where did you get this Kies update?
What software do you use on windows to connect to kies?
For the first time I was able to connect with Kies. USB connection never worked. I am able now to sync contacts and memo and calendar.

I installed Kies 2.0 on a Windows 7 machine and was able to connect via wifi after the TW update, but the version of Kies they currently have for the Mac does not work. Just for some fun, I contacted Samsung chat support and the Rep told me that Kies isn't even made for Windows! And that "kies wifi" just means you can connect via a USB cable while your on a wifi network! That's some top notch support.

WOW LOL
Just for the yet-to-be-informed, you have to have the latest Kies installed on your PC and the TouchWiz update on your Samsung tablet. Run Kies on the PC. Then go into settings/Wireless and Networks/Kies via Wi-Fi on the tablet. Pick your PC from the listed devices. Once you've connected the first time, you probably won't need to have Kies open before you initiate the connection on your tablet. Kies will leave a little behind to watch for the connection, then open up.
I have it working well, except that Kies freezes up occassionally. My PC runs Windows 7 64bit.

I tried doing that and the Tab 10.1 doesn't find my computer on the same WiFi - it just says No Devices after scanning.
I've disabled my firewall on my laptop just in case, but still no luck. Any ideas? Thx

Just keep trying. Mine didn't see the PC at first, but found it on the second try. My PC is wired on my network, with tab using WiFi from the same router. Not sure your PC can be connected to the internet via WiFi and still connect to the Tab via the same WiFi. Seems like it "should" work, but that may be one roadblock. Working fine on my system. I have a notebook PC arriving tomorrow or the next day and I'll put Keis on it to see if I have the same luck.
I feel dumb for asking this but what is kies? What does it do? Is this a samsung only thing?
its like a samsung itunes.

Yeah, though not as bloated or laggy ... but I was hoping for plex like media streaming capabilities, but sadly not supported ...
Found a way around it. All I needed to do is connect my Galaxy Tab 10.1 through the usb cable first, and then Kies would recognize it through WiFi afterwards. I guess the Laptop and Tab needed to meet each other through USB first.
kies does not see it or something, it keeps telling me to disconnect and reconnect, this is when i try to do with usb. when i press kies via wifi on tablet icon, screen gets a gray hue over it and does nothign...
I have it working with my Wifi 10.1- and I'm using Win7 in a VirtualBox window on my Ubuntu machine. The one thing that kies won't do is copy arbitrary files to my SGT. What a pain!!
There is a workaround- add the ".pdf" extension to the end of your file name (foo.apk.pdf) then you can do a single file copy to the SGT. Kies does a great job of playing gatekeeper so that you don't put anything harmful on your SGT. Heaven forbid you might root it or something.

I have the opposite problem, I can connect to it via wifi but when I connect USB kies does not recognize it.
Unfortunately Kies became useless as in the new version they dropped the ability to synchronize with Outlook!

I had this same problem. Could connect fine via USB but nothing happened when trying to connect via Wi-Fi other than the tablet's screen graying out. After doing a factory reset it's now working for me.
Finally have wifi file transfer
My MAC with lion would not connect to the 10.1 wireless or USB. Today on PC World they had an App WIFI File Explorer. Free download crippled and $1.60 Pro version. It is in the Market & Amazon.
I have the pro version and can transfer files wirelessly now. To me it was worth the $ rather than fight with Samsung.

I thought it would be obvious he can't get KIES without an internet connection, therefore KIES USB mode which doesn't exist on my note 3 wouldn't work.

Except for the part where he says the computer asks to download something for the phone, and he can't access the phone in explorer.
KIES is not required for MTP.

DCIM Camera folder is empty both on MTP and PTP?

I can't access my photos on the computers on either MTP or PTP. I'm on Stock 6.0.1 MTC19T. How to access my photos on the computer? Thanks in advance!
Is the phone unlocked? Just a guess. Don't remember if despite the option you have to unlock the phone too.
Otherwise you can use AirDroid and access and manage your phone via a browser if you are connected the same network

Go to setting>Developer mode and turn off USB debugging. Reboot and then go back in and turn it back on and you should have access through MTP.
