Any1 will any solution plz help coz my phone is at mess atm and cant flash anything.
the source of the usb issue may be your computer.
1) did you always use the same usb port for your phone?
2) how old is your computer?
3) do you live in a humid environment?
I live on guam, and on my older laptop (only two years old!!!), running winxp, 3 of 4 usb ports are no longer usable due to corrosion. they give errors and even when working, sometimes I could lose the connection by moving the cable slightly. also, the last usb port is now getting difficult to use because it's hard to plug in anything
so, if you answered yes to #1, try another port and be prepared to install the drivers again.
if you answered yes to #3, be prepared to replace your usb if they are indeed corroded
well thnx for answer,but my pc is new like 7 months old,usb ports are working just switched mouse and phone mouse working phone not.its driver relater before i had that error and some1 from xda told me to delete everything(kies drivers) related to phone and his drivers and it worked i also see that error(code 43 is common) but fix with uninstalling driver(worked before now doesnt).thing is that something at that moment didnt work well on phone(last time it was my external sd card had to format it)and now pc keeps repeating same error.simply even tho all drivers are installed i get device not recognized,and under device manager it unknown device,also when i tick option to see hidden devices i see omap 3630 but state is unconnected.

When transferring files to and from pc, do you use the original USB cable that came with the phone? Because when i use other cables, i have this issue, when i use the original cable, no probs at all.
if that also doesnt work, try formatting internal and external SD cards

i use original cable and also i did format both external and internal cards several times my first problem is kinda more important atm.
ok i tried connecting my phone to secondary pc running xp gave me same error but simple uninstall of driver and reinstall made it work cant fix it on win 7.
Edit: damn phone wont connect when in download mode cant flash anything -.-.
Connect the phone and go to device manager
If you see the i9003 driver uninstall it then connect the phone to pc again
now windows 7 will download the driver automatically
that's how I fixed my problem

I have just cleaned with some alcohol but it still occurs.
Seems like u have hardware related issue, I would suggest to get it checked by SSC.
But before u give ur phone, make sure u have stock rom with stock unrooted kernel. U dnt have cwm recovery and ur download counter must be 0.

Guys is this serious issue,

MTP Initialization issue
Hi All,
I'm new to use Galaxy R the same model. I don't know the issue i'm facing is directly related to MTP Initializer or not but the issue i'm facing is I'm not able to access the subdirectory and file system of my phone in PC. At initial When I connect my mobile to PC I was able to access the files and at that time MTP initializer message never appeared as notification but from few days ago whenever i connect my mobile to PC i'm getting notification of MTP initializer to my mobile and I'm not able to access subdirectories and files(music, video, photo) present in mobile although the root folders are appearing.
I thought this might be an MTP issue so posting this in this thread. Please help me how can I access(Copy/past/delete to/from PC) my all files.
firstSmartPhoneUser,
Try to access your files using USB mass storage. Go to Settings-Wireless and network-USB utilities, and click "Connect storage to PC" button. Then connect USB cable and tap "Connect USB storage". If that doesn't help, you can try to connect wirelessly with "Kies air" app, or something else, like MyPhoneExplorer (this app needs to be installed both on the phone and on PC).

I used odin to flash 2.3.6 firmware in download mode and it installed successfully, i wanted my mobile to connect to external storage device(i.e. pen drive) so i made a cable myself and also attache charger power source to that cable(hoping it would work.e. mount & read pendrive) ..After that my mobile wouldn't cnnect to my comp or laptop via usb data cable....it would charge but a usb data connection was not possible .. And finally after trying various methods i think it now is a hardware malfunction(becoz of me) and it should be given to a service center..
Rest all is working fine i can flash diff roms , camera ,wifi all working now using pacman rom so i thought service center would charge me more if i gave my mobile as it is.. they could easily charge more for seeing other rom installed So i wanted stock rom flashable by CWM..
So anyone's help is appreciated.. thanks...

what I understand from your posts is that your phone is perfectly fine but there is a problem with your pc and data cable.
Check with some other data cable,and re-install the samsung drivers for "device not recognized" error.
Use other usb port to check whether its a problem in your pc.

i never saw any such option on any rom yet!
whenever you connect with usb to a PC you get USB connected notification..click on it and enable mass storage.
never saw MTP & PTP in usb connections.
Which rom are you using?
If its 4.+ then try this

In Device Manager in Universal Serial Bus Controllers i uninstalled everything from ASMedia XHCi controllers to USB Root hub... all of them, then clicked scan for hardware changes then i connected my device to computer, then clicked the app USB mass storage for ics and JB ....on computer the elements(USb Root hub, etc.) reinstalled and there it detected my device as unknown device,,,,then for 5-10 sec a message flashed
something like this ,,...". I.I.I.I.I.I.I.I.I Ata mass storage " then it stopped showing not installed...
Using Pacman rom ..does have mtp,ptp,mass storage options..( when i tick any one of the three options it force closes)...
I googled over net on connectivity issue and will need sum time to format c drive and then try again...:fingers-crossed:
I wonder once in odin multi downloader i ticked the debug option only then i clicked delete driver option which may have caused the problem.......
Finally problem solved...replacing charging IC ( as the repairman said) solved comp connection problem then flashed stock rom....

[Q] [HELP] Usb problems

Hey guys, i'm having USB issues, i connect the phone to my computer, it does not connect, in windows it says failed to install drivers, and my nexus appears as it would be properly connected with the button saying to dismount usb storage in orange colour(you know what i mean) but it doesn't show on my computer and in device manager it shows with a yellow triangle i think this started when i flashed cm-10.1-20130503-Nightly in may, but it's totally weird.
I'm running now Cyanogenmod 10.1.2 Android 4.2.2 (11/7)
before ask:
i have tried different usb cables
i have tried different computers (XP and 7)
i have tried usb debug and all that stuff
i have tried the manual driver install (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1901617) but windows doens't even let me install it it says "your drivers are up to date" and only a close button.
please guys i'm dying without USB storage, what should i do? i really really need usb storage work, just can't figure how....
Could be drivers on phone or windows?
Please help guys a huge THANKS in advance!
does it mount on recovery ???
have you tried changing your kernel ???
have you tried mtp? ( maybe in CM is not supported )
the strange thing is that apparently it works on your device ...
if you need to transfer file you can use airdroid or scatter while u fix this

USB Connection Issues

I just rooted my s8+ with partcyborg's samfail and everything is working great except the usb isn't being recognized. I can see my phone on my computer and I can move files to my desktop but on my phone I get this message - "The connected device is unable to access data on this device. Reconnect the USB cable and try again." I have USB debugging enabled in settings. I'm using windows 10. ADB is up to date. I installed the samsung USB drivers. The device isn't recognized in kies or smart switch.
I'm at a total loss here. Any ideas? Could this be related to the 80% battery bug I was seeing? It's been at 80% for a while now.
Apologies if this is an obvious fix. I haven't rooted a phone since kitkat I looked around but the other threads weren't helpful.

So what do you wanna do with your USB connection? Just MTP (e.g. transfer files like you would when connecting a USB-Stick to PC) or you wanna do some ADB operations?
If you just want to transfer files, there's no need to have USB-Debugging enabled (in fact this is kind of a security risk when you connect to an unknown pc)

Yeah I've been trying to use drivedroid but it says there are issues with the mass storage. I'm going to send the dev a message with the ROM and see if there's anything he can do. For now just gonna flash back to stock
