windows drivers for p6200 or p6210?
Im unable to install keys on win xp (@work), I get error reading setup initialization file. The file download 100% uniterrupted from samsung official website. not sure what going on. seen a few similar probs but no real response. I have some android drivers on my pc, and it seemed to install adb driver ok. but I also need MTP driver.
EDIT: found old version of kies 1.53, google for kies_win.exe, installed, did driver recovery, finally stopped searching for device, then says Kies does not support this device. Anyways went to my computer and now can see my P6200 as MTP device and access card and tablet storage!
Lets hope new version of Kies will update over this.

Any official fix for MTP driver installation failed?

I just got a S3 yesterday but was greeted with the dreaded MTP driver installation failed message on win 7 (32 bit)
I installed the regular verizon s3 drivers from samsung's site, did the same thing, uninstalled and tried Kies and let it install the drivers, same problem
tried a different usb port, same thing
restarted the comp and computer, still no go
im getting frustrated now
it seems samsung has known about this issue for over a month now but still hasnt been able to fix it
my a500 and galaxy nexus work fine with MTP so not sure why this would mess up
ive looked at other threads but there was no clear solution on how to fix it

I don't have any issues with mine

Did you try a factory reset?

This happened to me too but I was running a CM10 ROM. What are you running and have you tried a different ROM?
Unfortunately, I cannot remember exactly what I did but I recall allowing Windows (I'm on W7) to find the drivers and install for me.

I'm not having any issues either, I'm using both 32/64 versions of Win 7...
These are the drivers I'm using:
http://downloadcenter.samsung.com/content/SW/201206/20120620051748445/Verizon_Wireless_I535_GSIII_Samsung_USB_Driver_v1_4_6_0.exe
Hope this helps..

I think I found the problem (its not the phone)
its the drivers that samsung issued
I plugged the phone on my win 7 64 bit desktop (not installing any drivers beforehand) and I got a few failed messages for drivers but I was able to access the file system fine
I then installed the driver pack posted and above then got the mtp driver installation failed message and was unable to access the file system
uninstalled the driver pack and connected the phone back up and I can access the file system (with some other drivers failing to install, I think relating to usb modem stuff ect...)
so until samsung fixes the driver problem I will have to deal with a few driver installation failed message every time I hook up the phone, but at least I can access the file system
im running the phone on the stock ics btw, didnt install cm10 or anything like that, the phone is rooted though but I rooted it after I found out about the mtp driver problem so it shouldnt mean anything

I have the same problem on Windows 7 32 bit. I rooted my phone and installed samba as a temporary fix.
Plus I just bought an external 32 GB SD card and I plan on using that as my workaround and just transfering files between the two.

Problem for me was the root.
Could you humor me and try this:
- go into the superuser app
- Select the 'temp unroot' checkbox from the first screen.
- unplug then replug the USB cable on your phone. The drivers should install on the first try this time (they did for me) and Kies should work too.
The problem seems to be that SuperUser exploits the USB Debug internally so, even though USB Debug is unchecked, it is still detected as checked by the connection and fails the install of the driver.
Solution #2 is the amazing script that transforms your MTP connection into a UMS one (look in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1785243 and thank open1your1eyes0 ). Once in UMS, you don't need the MTP driver to see your device so that's another approach.
Good luck

I bought Samsung Galaxy S3 2 weeks ago. Windows installed the drivers for it when first connected to my Windows 7 64 bit PC. It came up in the list of Devices on the Explorer. I installed "Kies_2.5.0.12094_28_8" which installed USB driver on top of the Windows driver. At the end of the installation, it gave "failure to install Samsung MTP driver".
Saw a thread on other forum where it was suggested to remove the driver from System Driver window under Control Tab/System and reboot. To be cautious, uninstalled Kies. Rebooted PC. Windows installed the driver. As soon as Kies was installed the whole issue unfolded again.
Looks like ALL Kies versions (including previous version of Kies_v2.3.3.12085_7_5) have incompatible and wrong driver which is resulting in this unresolvable situation.
I removed the MTP driver (control panel/system/device manager - MTP driver has ? mark - this is the one). Then removed the phone and rebooted PC. After reboot, connected the phone back. Windows detected the device and automatically installed the driver. The device is listed in Explorer and is fully accessible. Started Kies. It showed the device as GT-I9300. It took a while and connected to the phone. All functions became useable. Sync'ed the contacts etc.
Day2. Booted the PC. Device is still shown in Explorer. Kies shows GT-I9300 and then displays "Connecting Device" - IT FAILS TO CONNECT and on pressing "Trouble shooting" button, it re-installs its own drivers and fails to install MTP driver AGAIN" - the Kies software SUCKS

Solved! For real!
For some reason, any of those options helped me to make it work:
- Reinstall Windows Media Player
- Remove registry key
- Clean up old usb drivers
- re-install 100 times drivers from Verizon, Samsung. Even old versions.
- Install from Windows Update. I tried to do that 1000 times. Gosh!
- enable UMT access (mass storage) on the phone.
The only thing that worked was, for some reason , getting the drivers from a random computer that was the only computer that worked.
Windows 7 x64
Attached the files. Go to the devices manager and update the drivers.

3. with phone un-pluged from the usbcable Go into settings/Developer Options un-check Stay Awake un-check USB debugging un-check Allow mock locations Now hit the HOME button then plug in the USB cable and your are set..
This worked perfectly painless for me :laugh:

trouble installing Samsung USB drivers

whenever I try and install the samsung usb drivers for my S3 the installer always fails with this message: "The MSS installation for SAMSUNG USB Driver for Mobile Phones V1.4.6.0 has failed."
I had the universal naked drivers installed on this PC before for my tbolt and transformer prime, but it wasn't compatible with the S3 yet. There is an updated universal naked drivers that supports the S3, but when I try and back up my IMEI and put the phone into RMNET+DM+MODEM mode, the naked drivers don't recognize my device. in the regular MTP+ADB the drivers work fine.
so I imagine I need the samsung drivers to install for this to work. does anyone have any ideas how I could get the samsung usb drivers to install properly? I've also tried the V1.5.5.0 version as well and the installer fails as well. I've removed the universal naked drivers and tried to install without it and I still get the error. same thing in windows safemode. I'm running Windows 7 Enterprise 64 bit.
has anyone else had trouble with this? and any idea how to get the installer to work? thanks

Lots of people have been having this issue. I'm having it on XP at the moment... until now.
Per another thread I read here (for the Dell Streak, thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1291293) you can force Windows to use the generic driver instead of the Samsung one.
Basically, I edited a copy of the INF to match my device info, then entered the info into the [Generic] area of the INF. I then told Windows to allow me to manually select the driver, and pointed it to this INF file. Voila... I now have generic driver support for MTP in XP SP3. I imagine the same thing might work with other versions of Windows, since I'm not really using any non-Windows drivers.

Download and install PDAnet app to your computer, this app will install the driver for you. You have to select "Samsung" during the install. Once done you can uninstall the app but the driver stay.

If PDA net doesn't work for you, go into device manager and select your phone, click on properties, advanced, and install the drivers manually.

So, I came across another way to get the drivers to load without any INF file hacking. If you simply tell Windows (XP in my case) to update the driver, then tell it you will manually point to it, you can find a suitable one in the folder C:\Program Files\SAMSUNG\USB Drivers\25_escape (after you install the MSS driver pack, of course).
Unfortunately, in my case, I use MediaMonkey to manage this, and it doesn't seem to notice the "difference" between my phone and my wife's (both SGS3s). That's their fault, though... they clearly have some bugs in there.

that's the problem... the MSS pack fails to install. I tried copying the samsung\USB Drivers folder from my desktop (which the driver install worked on) to my laptop and manually pointing to the folder, but it says it can't find a driver for it. kind of odd. I'll have to try the PDA net drivers to see if that will work. thanks for the help guys

No any PC recognizes my tablet

see if you can help me,for some time now no device recognize my tablet, did not give much importance and all that happened I do sd taking the tablet and connecting it to my s3 this if I catch him, but clearly not as comfortable.
I thought it would be a thing of windows 8, but I've tried on other computers with xp, win7 and nothing.
I do not remember if it stopped working when I put cyanogenmod10. I love cyanogen by fluent but I downloaded the latest official samsung already incorporates the attractively landscaped MULTI I find on a tablet.
I installed and uninstalled samsung kies but nothing.
and clear to not hold my tablet I can not flash by odin.
I'll see if I find any official version as I downloaded but it is for recovery mode.
the model is the tab2 10.1 gt p5100
Thank´s in advance

Have you installed the drivers properly for your tablet? It took me sometime to get my tab to register on the computer too.

If it was when you went to Cyanogen Mod then something you could check (haven't heard of it on these tablets, but it is a known issue on another device I own) is go into the settings menu, scroll down to "Storage" and click into it, now find the menu button (not sure where it is on these) and tap it, it should not give you an option for "USB computer connection", tap that and make sure its on MTP or Mass Storage (if that is an option, depends on device and ROM), on the unofficial CM builds for my other android device you can't connect it to the computer after flashing the ROM till you go in and pick a setting there.

Kies drivers have NOTHING to do with being able to connect it to the computer to transfer files, also there is absolutely no reason to ever install Kies as you can get the Samsung drivers easily enough and that is a much smaller download. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=961956

That too. But it is easier to let Kies install it for you.

I was baffled by a similar experience.
The answer for me was to go to your settings in your device > storage settings > choose either MTP or Camera (check / tick a box)
Then the mac or pc should connect or recognise your device as long as you have the latest version of kies correctly installed.

[Guide] HKC P771A-P776A Root!

(WORKING ON WINDOWS XP 100% WINDOWS 7 DOESN'T SEEM TO WORK, IF NEED USE A VIRTUAL MACHINE)
Seeing as it was REALLY hard to find out how to root a HKC Tablet, I'll make a simple yet clear guide for all P77 models ranging from P771A through P776A.
First you will need the rockchip drivers (http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1468367&d=1352441606) After you download them extract the folder, inside right click the files for your OS and click install.
After you install the correct one for your OS reboot your computer.
Once it has restarted on your tablet go to settings and on the left bar at the bottom click Developer options > on the top now click the sliding bar that says off until it says on and click the little check box next to usb debugging, now plug your device into your computer via the usb wire and set your tablet down.
Now install kingo root (http://download.cnet.com/Kingo-Android-Root/3000-2094_4-75996768.html) After it is installed open the program and follow the on screen directions, if all goes well your device will reboot and kingo will say it was rooted successfully, do NOT unplug your device during this phase.
Once it has rebooted and kingo says that it was rooted you may remove the device and now you have a fully rooted HKC tablet

didn't work

Can't install USB drivers with right click or with win7 device manager?
---------- Post added at 05:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:02 PM ----------
Then king application doesn't connect

I'm guessing that the driver is for the USB debug mode but I sure can't install it

The drivers were hard to install on windows 7 I've been hearing, you can try to install them via device manager and then click search online then have cd and navigate to the folder and choose the right driver.

This is how you do it

I appreciate your effort in providing this answer. Unfortunately, after
some web research, it's exactly what I tried to no avail. The
driver would just not load and I couldn't even remove whatever
driver it thought was there in usb debug mode. I tried vista also.
same no result. I bought this cheap tablet just to play around
with rooting. I'll just chalk it up ti a failed experiment. The tablet
isn't bad as is considering its cheap price. I have other better ones.
Agaun, thank you for The answer.

a final word. looking at the reply i didn''t do exactly what the responder recommended. I actually did a shorter version where i browsed the computer for drivers in just 4 steps. when i did exactly what the response recommended and arrived at step 6, hit next, i got a new screen listing rockchip device types, rk27, rk28, rk29, etc.. all double listed for some reason. I think the hkc p771a is a rockchip 29xx single core device so I tried the two rk29 listings. when those didn't work i tried all the others. none worked. always said driver was not for this device. Thank you bill gates for your incomprehensible os. but, really, than you again to the responder.

New RockUsb 3.7 Drivers Working
I too had no luck with the drivers offered with the guide short install or long i got no where so i went on a search and found these drivers do work just install with have disk,
now if i only can get kingo to connect any help would be great thx

nice try
Sounds like terrenInc is saying this driver will install but kingo still won't connect. Probably not the right driver for this function. Nice try though.

If that iis a correct adb driver (I couldn't get it to install), responder might try one of the other 1 click root apps out there like srss ti see if it will connect/work.

I tried the default google driver that adb uses and I could install it but no luck with kingo attaching.
There are several sites where people discuss rooting from the pt of view of the chip set
rk29xx (rk2918 to be exact) and they had success with a few other tablets with same chip
Set. To be frank it was over my head.

I've been having personal issues, sorry for the late reply, drivers I provided have only been tested on windows xp and windows 8 using them along with kingo root was a simple process, I have not been able to get the drivers working on windows 7 after a fresh install, I'm not entirely sure why but the rockchip drivers don't allow the connection via debug on windows 7, I've tested this method 3 times and its worked 2 out of 3 windows 7 being the failure. installing the drivers on windows 8 was as simple as right click install reboot, windows xp were the same way, using the windows 7 method on fresh install however proved to be more complex, I've had it working on the old install of win7 but haven't been able to on my fresh install.

To make this simpler, I'll edit into the main post (KNOWN WORKING ON WINDOWS XP) if you can try windows xp it is a sure proof method I just tested on a new tablet since my last post using my guide, working 100% with the drivers I linked, on a side note if you can't get ahold on a windows xp computer use a virtual machine to install windows xp then just remove it once you're rooted

Cydia Impactor will root this device. Trying to install a custom recovery (CWM) right now. The tablet is not playing fair.
And I used Windows 7.

Won't install usb drivers
I have the hkc p776a tablet and I have done every thing this guide says and it won't work I have tried it on a Xp PC and a vista pc also and neither one works when I tried to install it on vista it says "this .inf file is not meant to be installed this way" and on Xp it does nothing. Could you do pics on how you went though the process of doing it. I know it is a lot to ask but if you did it would help me a lot. Thx and is there any other way of getting the usb drivers.

Finally! I got root! I realized my problem on XP. I need USB debugguing off to install tablet correctly, then turned on for rooting program to connect. Now kingo didn't work for me. It made screen go crazy until all I could do is reboot. But cydia impactor did it! Happy days. Good-bye Korean keyboard!

Installing the drivers worked for me on the first try (with no problems) on Vista with the usb debugging turned off.
Now How do I go about installing cwm recovery ? I am kinda stuck at that point now ;(
