[Q] usb chords - General Questions and Answers

Here is my question. Me and my wife both share the same usb chord to charge our phones. I can connect my phone to the computer and it recognizes it to transfer data. When i connect her phone to the computer it does not recogize it. But on the phone it says that it is charging. So is sharing the same usb chord not a good idea? I also went and downloaded the appropriate drivers for her samsung s fascinate but still it will not recognize her phone. What to do? Thanks in advance for help.

Nevermind.I got it now. It was the chord

I have a captivate but I was going crazy with my phone not connecting at work, turns out it didn't like that the USB was plugged into the monitor. Once I plugged it directly into the tower it was no problem.
Don't know what mode you are in but I put my phone in USB debugging. Don't know if its the same for the epic.

Sounds like you are using a "charge only" USB cord. Do you have the one that came in the box with your Infuse?

Yes, its the Original cable....this just started to happen like 5 Days ago. I've tried my other Samsung cable, same issue

USB not working
When I try to connect to the computer to transfer music or whatever to the Infuse it won't let me. I plug in the data cable click mass storage, click connect USB I get "do you want to scan and fix". If I click scan and fix I get "check disk options". Any combination of the check boxes will make the phone disappear and starts the scanning process, like I had disconnected it. I'm running Zeus 6 w/ICS theme for build 6. Is there any special way these disks should be formatted? Any help would be appreciated.
Wow! Nothing?
Now when I plug in to the computer it doesn't even recognize the phone. It's like I never plugged it in. The phone will still asks kies/media/mass storage. I click mass storage then click connect to PC then nothing. It's almost to the point of going out on the deck and teach this phone how to fly.
my infuse is doing about the same thing.
plug it into the wall...nothing.
try different outlet...nothing.
try different charger and cord...nothing.
plug it into my computer...starts to charge only, no usb mode.
computer says "one of the usb devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned, and windows does not recognize it.
ANY HELP?

I had the something happen yesterday. I restarted phone and pc but same thing. Ended up cleaning the mini usb port on the phone with an old toothbrush (and nothing else) and it started working again! Must have been some crap in there or something.

[Q] PC Won't recognize my phone

Hello again! So I recently picked up a Galaxy S 4g for a good deal, and now for some reason, I can't connect it to my pc. I plug it in via usb, I've tried all the USB settings, and my pc won't recognize it at all. I've searched everywhere on the web, and on these forums, and still no dice. I found another similar thread from about a year ago, and nobody really gave a concrete answer there. I've tried in debug mode also. The phone charges when it is plugged in, but that is all. I installed the Kies Mini and the drivers on my work pc (Win7 x64) and it still won't recognize my phone. At home I'm running Win8 x64, and Kies Mini won't even download the drivers, it just sticks at 0%. If anyone has any ideas as to why it won't work, or options that I can try, it would be greatly appreciated. Also, it is not rooted. The point of this is to try to root it. I've rooted many other Android phones without issue. This one's being a tricky little bugger!
Thanks in advance.
You will need to install the drivers for your phone on the pc. Also check out your usb cable some give me problems

Had a similar problem on my win7 laptop. Decided to start over on my winXP pc and Kies mini worked to install drivers.
Well I've tried multiple USB cables, and both of the ones I have work with my Windows phone so im pretty sure those aren't the issue.
I will set up a PC with XP today then and see what happens. Will post with results. Thanks in advance!
I'm using windows 7 with no issues

I got it to work! Here's how:
I tried installing XP on a pc that I was setting up for my grandma, and still had the same problem. Having been working on this for a few days, I got frusturated, and brought it to my Dad to have him give it a go (he's done tons of rooting/unlocking on tons of phones, and he is in the 360 modding scene) and lo and behold, he got it. It was just the USB cables I was using I guess. He hooked it up with the cable from his Kindle Fire, and it worked instantly. Looks like I just need to pick up a new cable, because all 3 of mine are ****ty >.>
Thanks for the help guys!
Make sure MTP is checked under storage -> press menu -> USB Computer connection
EDIT: sorry i didnt see you had it solved

Yes I do, I've unchecked it and checked it and my phone still wont connect to my laptop.
Does anyone have any ideas? Anything helps!
This may be a gigantic derp, but make sure you're using a data/sync cable and not just a "charge" cable. Even if you don't have USB debugging enabled, your PC will recognize your phone when you connect it - unless it just can't see the connection at all, and that can pretty much only be because of the cable.
Try rebooting the phone with the phone connected. There have been times with my previous phones where Windows couldn't recognize the phone because of driver issues and that seemed to allow Windows to recognize it easier.

Reboot the computer. I had the same issue. Rebooting the phone and computer fixed it for me

Try using a different USB port
personally i have found the usb3 port on my laptop and my phone to be quite buggy. i keep seeing the phone connecting and disconnecting.
When you connect you phone to your computer dose it start charging?
also open up the windows Device Manager and look for anything about an unrecognized device.
and one last thought for now have you loaded drivers for other phones? sometimes that will mess with loading drivers for new phones

Can't move pics to PC

When I plug my phone in to my PC, with Win 10, it recognizes the phone and I can navigate around but I can not transfer any pics to the PC. Anyone have any ideas why not? I get the attached error.
OK I got it all figured out. There are always things you should try before asking for help. Like rebooting phones, PCs, but that wasn't it this time. The other thing to always try is a different USB cord, that was the issue.
Yeah I've found that you need to use the original samsung cable
