Can't connect to pc with USB cable

Hi is anyone have the same problem with there S4 connecting to PC with USB cable. I have all the drivers installed and I also tried connecting to another pc and same problem.. I also tried 2 cables and no good. I can connect with cable with odin but I can't move files with windows explorer.

So you have tried this on 2 pc's correct, you have keis loaded on both? Are you sure usb debugging is enabled in the dev section?
Are we guessing what phone you have here? Is it a iPuke S4?
Noobs: if you need help, and an accurate help...use this when asking, MAKE IT LAW!
1) What model phone
2) What Kernel
3) What recovery
4) and any other information you can provide.

I have the same exact problem as you, I uninstalled drivers, reinstalled, installed kies, turned on usb debugging, took out battery, did all sorts of stuff and it still doesn't work.

Thanks that it my problem that I am having.

i used to have a driver problem for my galaxy s4 at&t. i resolved it by restoring back to factory stock using odin. you can follow instructions here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2261573

I had the same issue as you op, and unfortunately I don't have a good solution. The only thing that fixed it for me was flashing a different rom. I was on Jedi and it wouldn't let me connect to PC (at first, it worked fine but a day later it stopped).
Flashing another rom (mint) fixed it for me.

I am impressed here, you had and issue with a rom, before you went on a post rampage you tried another rom, and it worked, so you know now it was not a hardware issue but a rom issue, this is how you find solutions on your own. GOOD JOB. this deserves a thanks from me at least.

Not sure if serious. Jk, thanks. But I still think I could have figured out a better solution than completely ditching a rom.
I tried everything listed, from updating drivers to trying to mount the phone through twrp. Nothing worked, even re-flashing the rom, so that gave me the idea to try another.

Did not mean it that way, first troubleshooting step should be, are you having the same issue on another rom, if 2 roms have the issue, it is a more serious problem, but as you tried, it is a issue with that rom, so that person can find answers in that rom thread.
calmness sir, it was all in good meaning.

lol Ax, I threw that JK in there to say Joking. I even said thanks man!
But you are correct, trying another rom did cancel out a hardware problem for me.

OK, I337 rooted, unlocked, Goldeneye 7/10 ROM, 3.4.0-917495 kernel, USB debug enabled, running Net10/TMo, via *#0808# set to RNDIS+DM+MODEM, and AWS enabled via *#0011# OP process (I'm now getting 14.3M downloads off H+). wifi-Kies is Titanium frozen, as is restored crapware std email client. I had this problem once before when I left USB setting at RNDIC+DM+MODEM without completing the QPST process, but all was well after I did it right. Only other change I'm aware of is that I installed the Samsung USB drivers for the S3 so I could do the same AWS fix for the wife's i747. Anyway, the Samsung don't show in device manager now, even after reinstall the S4 drivers. Get a phone beep on plugging in, that's it. I plug her S3 in, get beep, screen says connecting as media device, windows 7 says installing drivers, via windows update, and eventually gets it done, saying "USB composite, sgh-i747, CDC/ACM, and ADB interface" (as shown), much as with S4 when it's usb driver install is successful. A puzzlement for a noob, for sure; clearly it's inside the S4, as when I try usb connect into an XP 'puter, while I get the phone beep, there's no usb recognition by the XP either.

G2 brick/driver issue

Hey all I'm looking for a little help on an issue that I can't seem to find any exact info on (I have searched quite a bit)
The problem is that I have seemingly soft bricked my G2 whilst trying to restore a 4.4.2 backup coming from a stock custom 5.0.1 Rom.
The phone is stuck in a bootloop and I cannot access recovery mode through any of the button combinations or any other way.
I have installed the latest LG drivers but when I connect the phone (while in boot loop) the pc tries to install "LGE Android MTP Device" but fails to complete.
When in download mode though, the phone is recognised as "LGE AndroidNet USB Modem"
When I try to flash a stock KDZ via Flashtool,every time it gets to 2% and then throws an error message telling me to retry.
If this is an issue with the drivers not installing correctly, is there another way of getting them to install without the phone being switched on and USB Debugging on?
If so I would greatly appreciate a little light shed on the matter.
As I said, I have searched a lot about this and did not find any other cases similar to mine where the USB drivers could not be installed.
Thanks
Darren

Have you tried flashing a .TOT file using the .TOT method instead of .KDZ? What is your phones model?
http://downloads.codefi.re/autoprime/LG/LG_G2/

It's a D802. And no I haven't tried that although I am intrigued as to what it entails. Is it the same procedure as KDZ flashing?
I really appreciate are the reply btw

If your having trouble with the drivers then delete them, reboot and install pdanet. If it still fails at 2% then go the tot method.

Forgot to flash them back before reboot.
Ive since learnt one can recover with QPST and some files. Problem is i cant find them for Asus.
Click to expand...

you didn't wipe aboot, abootbak, hypbak? right? Our phone has a backup partition for each partition (abootbak, hypback, sbl1bak, modembak, etc), asus included these, so there must be some way to use them to unbrick. Are you able to reboot to fastboot mode? ( i guess not, but still to confirm)
You can unbrick with QFIL ONLY if you manage to find your device's RAM IMAGE (usually MPRxxxx.mbn) and BOOT IMAGE (usually xxxx_msimage.mbn). Other flash files are included in asus fota, only these two are not. @shakalaca might help to find these files or the entire service ROM. I have been searching for asus service but to no avail . I have flashed many lenevo and xiomi phones with QFIL. Here's is a very nice guide http://www.androidbrick.com/unbrick...-you-have-the-right-kind-of-rom-qhsusb_dload/
You can request for ZF2 laser's service ROM on that website/blog. GSM FORUM is also a good forum to request service ROMs

Will the MPRxxx.mbn and msimage.mbn for another phone but similar processor and chipset work? I found those for MSM8916 for another device and im hoping i can use those.

I never cross flashed ram image. Be patient. Don't flash other device's ram image, it may worsen conditions. Keep this as the final solution, but NOT NOW. Also, you need boot image (.mbn) too.

Are you sure msimage is same as gpt? I have attached my ze550kl msm8916 gpt dump. Seems there are three- gpt, gpt1, and gpt2. Try your luck with each one by one.
And please stick to one thread, b7mping the forum is not a solution to your problem. Update your OP by mentioned.ing the workarounds you have tried till now and useful links you have visited for fixing the issue. I know a friend who is a mobile repairer. He might have the service rom for your device. I am waiting for his reply

Sounds like you got 2 warranty issues now. If the bootloader is locked, LG should honour the repair.

There's a program called QFIL (qualcomm flash) and you can use it to flash a kdz. I believe all it does is flashes download mode as once it succeeds and your phone is in download mode you would then reinstall stock kdz. I noticed there's a mention of 'firehose' though and I'm unsure yet of what that is.

Just curious: how did you manage to remove write protected partition while your bootloader is locked?
