Im coming from a mac so i picked up an older PC running windows xp so i could download Odin and flash my phone since its pretty much useless right now. I can install the drivers and the computer recognizes my phone but when i plug it in it says new hardware Samsung android USB Modem.
so i try to install it and it always gets stuck trying to install C:\windows\system32\drivers
it tells me that it might not function properly because it wasnt installed correctly.
I dont know what else to do

Where did you get the drivers (they should ahve been downloaded right from the samsung site)? Also what USB mode to you have your Phone in? I beleive for direct connection it has to be in Mass Storage mode. I didnt have any issues when I installed Kies onto my XP Machine and the phone was recognized right away.
im trying to un brick my epic using odin but the problem is getting my pc to install the driver. i tried three different websites to get the driver software and none of them work. i uninstall each one and reinstalled and still no luck. i only get a message saying to pc wont recognize driver b/c usb driver device has malfunction. i have windows 7 starter 32bit. please help me getting my stupid pc working and unbricking my phone b4 my wife kill me for messing upher phone

Uninstall current drivers install KIes,or this samsung driver pack.https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/17168446/SGH-i997_Infuse4G_USB_Drivers_5_2_0_2.zip then reboot when you plug your phone in DO NOT let your computer search windows update for driver

The problem i have found Microsoft generic drivers are being used instead of the samsung drivers it seems to me.

That is why you need to uninstall all drivers for phone,reboot, install drivers,reboot,plug phone in DO NOT let computer search windows update.Once you stop it from downloading from Microsoft it will load drivers you installed.
I just tried it again. deleted drivers and rebooted.
Installed Kies mini and rebooted.
I have had driver search turned off, but double checked and rebooted for safe measure and it still installed the the generic drivers.
deleted drivers and devices the way i know how and used the link above to make sure.
I even went in Deview and made sure that the any generic driver was gone as well.
Still getting the issue.
Any other suggestions.
I'm at a loss not
what am i missing.

Which version of windows are you running,if running 7 when you plug phone in after deleting etc.you should new device installer telling you it is installing your new device,then it will say click here to view progress. Click immediately, when that pops up at bottom of it is link saying do not search microsoft for updated drivers. it will ask if you are sure yes you are. Then it will search computer and use drivers from Kies

That did not work for me, but i did find this:
You can get the results above in Windows 7 Home Premium through the registry editor ... not going to tell you how to edit the registry... I'll assume you know how...
Add/update the following DWORD value in
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\DeviceInstall\Restrictions]
"DenyUnspecified"=dword:00000001
I had to manually add the "DeviceInstall" and "Restrictions" keys, then add the dword value "DenyUnspecified" and set it to 1.
To turn enable again, change DenyUnspecified to 0.
Now that i have stopped the automatic windows driver install, I thought i would be Ok but I'm still having issues with the proper infuse drivers. this just sucks odin will still not recognize my phone.
Ok any help.
I was able to stop windows 7 from installing the generic drivers by editing the registry, but the computer will not recognize the drivers from Samsung direct download or kies mini.
When doing a search to choose the driver windows 7 will not detect the drivers
I have tried the drivers from above, kies mini, kies, and samsung. no luck.
with the generic drivers it will still mount the storage cards no problem, adb works i just cant get odin or kies to work.
Install keis and don't let windows search for drivers

Any luck getting your phone to show up? Windows doesn't even acknowledge my phone is plugged in. This is on my win7 laptop, my pc still connects to the phone fine. Tried 3 different cables and reloaded drivers/rebooted several times. Phone does charge however.

Sorry no luck here, I gave up on the process. I gave the phone away to some one that needed a phone and i know would not be doing any technical stuff to it.
Ok so I have an ATT LG G2 (d800) I have CWM touch recovery and yesterday I flashed the latest cm11 update 2-21. After that my phone never got past the CM loading screen.It would load for hours. I tried wiping from recovery and I ended up deleting everything, now all I get is my LG screen. I have no zips on the phone that I can flash. I am still able to get into recovery and into download mode, since I have CWM I think that means I can't flash from an OTG. I know I can push files through adb which I already have setup, however no computer I connect my phone to can see it. It shows up in device manager as Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed). I have downloaded the google adb drivers, the koush drivers, the unnaked drivers, the lg drivers, NOTHING WORKS. On 64 bit computers it tells me make sure the driver is support for 64bit systems, I try the same exact driver on a win 7 32 bit and it tells me to make sure it is for 32 bit computers. I have opened up the phone and left the battery unplugged for 2 hours, that didn't help. I've actually read that people clean the inside of their usb port on the phone and that fixes that, I'm desperate and tried it, did nothing. I have tried on my windows 8.1 x64 (yes i tried disabling signature veri), windows 7 32 bit, and a virtual windows xp 32 bit.
Windows 8.1 doesn't support many devices in fastboot or recovery mode. I had to switch my computer to windows 8 just to use fastboot on an xperia play.
Using a virtual windows xp wouldn't work either. Cuz the device has to be recognized by your main OS first. And after your main OS recognizes the device it will connect it to the virtual machine.
So stick to your Windows 7 for now. Make sure again that you're correctly installing the 32 bit drivers and then try pushing zip files into your phone through adb
As long as your phone can boot into recovery or download mode then it's fixable so don't worry about that.

Hi
My Fit device got bricked while I was doing factory reset. It was on some custom ROM. Now it is not going into Recovery mode and not booting into Normal mode. It displays a Blank Screen at boot. The only thing I can do is go into Downloading mode.
But My Windows 10 x64 laptops with USB2 ports are not able to recognize the device properly. I tried various versions of Kies and Kies3 s/w. I also tried Samsung Mobile USB Drivers different versions. I tried installing/uninstalling them in different sequences and rebooting my system in between... But no success.
I Also tried Windows XP SP3 inside virtual machine. But Kies setup fails giving error that it can not connect to internet. Although my connection works fine from inside the VM.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks in Advance.
