But windows automatically installs the drivers right? (if not found)

No...
It installs drivers if the device already has the same included...
Fit is not plug-and-play, which means you need to install drivers manually...or install kies...
Whichever you prefer...

You don't have to use it if you don't want. Installing Kies means you're installing USB drivers, you don't have to start kies everytime when you connect ur phone through usb. I've installed kies but never used it. I use it HIGHLY OCCASIONALLY.

Yup kies is waste of mem (if u ask me ) for drivers go to sammobile website registr n check our phn specific drivers its just around 25mb file dats easy if u dnt want kies

I found it easier to install drivers kies then uninstall kies

Even after installing kies it is still charging. Device is not connected to kies.
hey i am using the usb cable of galaxy ace. is it the problem? but i think these cables can be used on both the devices.

I use the same cable on 2 different blackberry's, my nokia 5310 and c3, samsung monte, and acer liquid metal...
So I don't think that's the problem...
Have you tried using a different computer?

yes i have triedon different computers also.. but its not working there too.

Hi.
I had the problem too. I did this to connect my phone:
1. Go in DownloadMode. Now, the computer must install drivers, like odin.
2. If the installation finished, hold down the Powerbutton for 10 seconds. It'll restart, if nothing happens try to start with holding the powerbutton again.
3. Then, if the phone is started, your computer finds the phone!
I'm not responsible for any damages!!!!
greetings,

Phone detection by PC

I have completely lost connection with my computer. It does not detect the phone at all during standard usb to phone connection nor does odin recognize a phone being hooked up. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance for your help.

Try deleting the Samsung drivers on your computer and let Windows find them for you or switch usb ports or check out your Device manager and see if there are any problems in there... Assuming that you are running windows? Hope this helps...:good:

Options
1.try another computer
2. Dont use a usb hub
3.try a different usb port... stay a way from usb 3.0
4. It might be a bad usb cable
5. Uninstall the driver then reinstall them(install if youb dont have it)

Thanks for the advice guys. I tried a different cable, USB and deleting the drivers. It doesn't detect my phone at all after this.
I'm pretty sure it is an issue with my phone. I plugged my wife's s3 in and instant detection. I'm gonna call vzw and have a replacement sent.
Thanks again for the help.

Be sure debugging is off, or the drivers will not automatically download. Switch back on when you start using Odin

i have the exact problem like u. when i connect my note 10.1 to my pc via usb, my pc wont detect my note storage even though i set it at MTP. the only thing that come out is scanner and camera wizard. please someone help

If I remember correctly when I connected my GNote10 to my laptop all I could see was the sdcard not the external card. Well it could seevthe external sdcard but not what was on it. I put it down to the fact I run Linux and the drivers for the GNote10 may be different. However now I use WiFi File Explorer Pro and Bluetooth for transfering files as it seems easier for me.

There is a app to fix this on SSamsung apps store search for kies it will be there

Erica, unfortunately, this app does not install. If you're talking about Kies Saver WiFi.

Try connecting it to another Windows computer to see if it is detected to rule out whether or not it is a specific computer's issue or your tablet.
If it's just that computer then only thing I can think of is if you go to the Device Manager in windows and look under the "Universal Serial Bus controllers" Host controllers and see if any have an exclamation mark.
From there you can try uninstalling that device and then either reconnect or reboot your computer and reconnect and see if it now detects it.

Could try this program on your computer to remove usb entries.search google for usbdview program for your pc.it will show all conmected usb devices remove old android conmections
Good luck this helped me before

I solved the issue like THIS:
Downloaded KIES
ran " connectionproblems" function of KIES (drivers will be newly installed)
Restart PC
Connect
And , voila, MTP works flawless ...........

FIXED
I pluged it in like you had and just got the un-ending "Connecting" in Kies. It showed the device ID (GT-N8013) in the connected device tab however it would never fully connect.
So what I did was while it was trying to connect in Kies I changed the connection type in the Note from MTP (Media device) to PTP (Camera). I got a few error messages in Kies saying that it can't connect to the device because the device was in the wrong mode. After I cleared those error messages and Kies stopped trying to connect. I than set the USB PC connection back to MTP and let Kies do its thing and no problemo there it was.
Hope this helps some of you! Have fun! Also the kick in the pants is that there is no firmware update available still stuck at 4.1.2. I was hoping 4.2 would be available.

same problem as OP
I have the same problem as OP, my PC just doesn't recognize that a device is plugged in. The Samsung note 10.1 beeps and charges but that's it, my PC is non the wiser to anything changing at all.
I'm running Windows 7 64bit and I've tried it on my brothers PC, same OS, and my dads which is 32bit. re-installed windows, fully updated Samsung and windows, Kies just says "plug in a device"
USBDeview doesn't recognize anything.
Nothing in device manager.
I've contacted Samsung after searching high and low on Google for an answer and they diagnosed it as faulty.
Repair center says it's working fine and sent it me back.
There must be something I'm missing on the tablet, could it be a faulty USB cable? I have really run out of options.

because its rooted
wont work because its rooted i even tryed voodoo root keeper and samsung wont let me update becasue its rooted .. kinda stuck. cant even connect computer to install custom rom

I don't know if this is the case with you, but I experience connection problems very often, in particular with OTG. Connection seems to be reliable immediately after reboot but after a (short? longer?) while it stops and won't work anymore.
My guess is that a driver is not correctly reset when the tablet resumes from sleep.
It might be a problem introduced with the latest OTA.

Same here bro.. I tested to another PC but still not recognize.. maybe from the note?
Please everyone.. help help help

Fixed it with a £2 USB cable off eBay. If you have nothing but the tablet charging try a new cable. Worked for me after sending it to Samsung for repairs twice.

Try to turn on USB Debugging in Developer Setting. I'm using N8013 and that method works for me

My Note 10.1 (2014) wasn't being recognized in My Computer by the laptop running Win7, so I found the tablet in the Device Manager, double-clicked on it there, and downloaded the drivers. Loaded up flawlessly after that.

[Q] Help please - phone does not recognize charger or usb cable

I am expieriencing a strange and very annoying problem with my Nexus s lately. For some days now, the device does not activly recognize a plugged in usb cable (and charger there for).
This results in me not being able to transfer files from or to my phone or access adb / fastboot. However charging works - without the phone displaying, that it is being charged.
I had a spare battery at home, which I didnt need until now, so I unboxed the battery and put it in, to no avail. The device is per se usable, but does not communicate out of the usb port.
Can you please help me troubleshoot / solve this problem?
/edit: some additional information:
If the phone is turned off and I plug in the usb cable, which is connected to the charger or my pc, it immediatly turns on and boots up.

what rom do You use? I had a problem with USB connection on SlimBeam. Flashing different rom helped, just download and flash it through your device, without using PC.

maybe You should try reflashing rom, or flash different one with full wipe. if it won't help it might be a hardware issue.
Sent from my Nexus S using xda app-developers app

I am afraid it is indeed an hardware issue. I just reflashed Rascarlos rom, which I had on my sd card. I wiped system cache dalvik + factory reset for good messure.
Well, I still got my Nexus 7 3G as my device for daily use. Guess no more flashing and developing on my good old Nexus S. It will serve as a classic phone as long as it still charges its battery.
What a shame ... such a great device. Didn't let me down once until these days

Usb problem...

Hey all,
I recently got a set up to get my HDD contected to my note. (with y cable for power suply) However when i plug it in it just says usb connecter connected and after a few seconds it tells me that mass storage is savely removed? this happens while the cable is still plugged in and im just waiting without touching any cable etc. Any idea what could cause this problem?

I had read about this somewhere. Cant remember.
I think its an issue with the driver. Just to confirm try another PC.
Or else the usb port or cable is screwed.

Hey thanks for responding . A pc isn't the problem. I'm currently one step further which is that the note 10.1 does see that a usb device is connected but doesn't recognize it as a mass storage device. Any ideas what could solve this?

I'm not using a stock rom though...

I'm not on stock and I had to use a USB OTG app to mount my drive. I used USB OTG Helper but there are others out there that work too.

Will try that but in case it doesn't, what rom are you using?
Thanks again

I'm not sure if my drive is NTFS or exFAT, that might make a difference. I'm also using a powered USB hub but have been able to mount the drives using the USB OTG helper app that I mentioned. USB seems flaky to me tough... sometimes it works without a hitch, sometimes I have to mess around to get things to connect properly.

I was connecting fine over USB before installing AR and now it reboots the tablet whenever connected to the computer. Strange issue. And a frustrating one because I like to use USB a lot for transferring music and other files.
Installed AR 8.0 because from the description it sounded very "stock" but runs a lot better. It appears it isn't as stock as I had hoped.
