[Q] Connecting to Samsung Kies - Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a unrooted N8010 running on stock firmware.
I installed the Samsung Kies and all the necessary drivers but when I connect my tablet to the computer it doesn't work at the first try (I get an error about Hardware ID not found...). Although the Samsung Kies software shows on the top left that the GT-N8010 is connecting... but it never connects.
Then I plug out the USB and click on troubleshoot connection and it re-installs the drivers. Then when I connect the tablet again it is recognized by Kies and it shows up on the software window.
My issue is that I have to do this everytime I first connect the tablet. I don't know why I need to re-install the drivers everytime for it to work. Any ideas as to what might be the problem?

Seems to be a common problem, I have same problem, even when connecting without kies to load stuff on my SD card, sometimes changing USB port helps or connect as camera, then back again to MPT. Jim

same here, Moody KIES

Why use Kies ??? join XDA and throw Kies away .

[Q] How to install MTP USB drivers?

I am started to hate Kies and now I'm starting to really hate everything!!
I'm trying to upgrade my Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus Wi-Fi UK GT-P6210 Build number: HTJ85B P6210XXLB1.
I thought I could upgrade via Wifi but apparently it doesn't work (and it doesn't) and I have to use Kies. The ADB USB drives install but the MTP drivers just will not install. I've tried all the workarounds I could find, installed and reinstalled, reset my Samsung and restarted my PC. Same problem. Tried on my Laptop. Didn't work. Downloaded a new Windows MTP driver. I mean this is ridiculous.
Also if I use this SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones.exe or the Kies versions I get a long list of drivers and no indication of which one is the correct one. I tried all of them. Same result.
What next? Destroy it?

[Q] Pc connect help

Hello all I've looked through these forms and goggled and I can't seem to find any answers so I hope someone here can help me. I have the 3113 Tab 2. I rooted it with CM9 9.1.0 build. I wanted to return the tab to stock but when I use the usb cable my pc doesn't see it. It will charge but never shows at a mass storage or anything. I have reinstalled Win 7 and loaded Samsung Keis drivers from Samsung website and still no luck. I have to different Usb cables and I have used them both on my desktop and laptop and the pc never recognizes the tablet. So I cannot use Odin to return my tab to stock. Not sure what else to try so if anyone has a solution to this please let me know. I'm going to order a new usb cable just encase that is the problem but other than that I don't know. Please if someone can point me in a direction that would really help. Thanks in advance.
I had a similar issue just installing the "drivers " as a stand alone thing on my Win7 x64, But when I re-installed the full PC Kies software package things worked just fine for me. Now anytime I flash a new ROM, Windows update searches and installs what I need automagically.
Hope that works for you ?
Having a similar issue. I rooted but haven't installed CM as yet. My laptop knows that something is plugged in and my tab knows that it's been plugged in. For some reason the disk drives (SDcard and extSDcard) don't show up and autoplay never happens. I left the Kies drivers on upon uninstalling it and that didn't help. Yesterday Windows Update downloaded a Samsung updated that worked up until I shut down my laptop. Pretty weird stuff.

[Q] After update to 2.3.6, device won't connect to USB. Help!

Hi everyone! I've updated my Samsung Galaxy i9003L to 2.3.6 via Kies a few days ago, and USB connection has stopped working for seemingly no reason. The phone just charges but never mounts. Kies doesn't detect it either.
On Win7, when I try to connect I get the device listed as "Unknown Device", error 43. Have tried uninstalling USB drivers and reinstalling official Samsung drivers at least 5 times. Didn't work. Also, Kies doesn't detect the phone. Have tried running Kies' connection troubleshoot tool. Didn't work either.
I've tried connecting the device with 3 different USB cables (including the original Samsung one), and on different USB ports as well. Didn't work either. Also tried putting the device on USB Debugging mode, to no avail. I've also cleaned the USB port in the phone just in case. Problem persists.
My Linux netbook used to detect the device with no problem at all before the update. Now it doesn't detect it either. I've also tried my GF's Mac, but no dice. This makes me think this may be a phone error.
I've also tried the *#7284# USB/MODEM solution and rebooted my phone to factory settings twice already. Nothing seems to work.
I'd appreciate some help on the matter, this is driving me slightly crazy!

Hi! First of all, thanks for the help. I doubt this is a firmware problem, since neither mi Linux netbook nor a Mac computer detected the phone in any way, and they also used ot be able to detect it with no problem.

Cant connect to Windows 10 laptop

I installed everything I can think of and my laptop wont recognize my s6 after upgrading to WIN10. Kies v3, check. smart switch, check. Reinstall drivers using smart switch, check. When I plug in the USB cable it charges, but nothing happens on the screen. Cant transfer files or tether. Really frustrating. Any help appreciated
I have win10 as well. The phone is recognized immediately az a storage device and also Odin works without issues. You can try a different port or cable.
I'm having the exact same issue with my samsung s6 (samsung-sm-g920a). After installing WIN10, I haven't been able to connection via phone > laptop. I can send files from the laptop to the phone though, but not the other way around. I've tried putting my cord in all the ports but it won't work.
cant connect s6 to windows 10 via usb
I'm having the s ame issues
Did you try to reinstall the ADB drivers?

Galaxy Note 10.1 Table not recognized through USB

Hi Everyone,
My Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 stuck on Samsung logo during boot. I cannot even go to recovery mode (power + volume up doesnot work). I can only go to ODIN mode. I downloaded odin tool and corresponding firmware from a website, but my problem is that PC donot recognize my tablet now. It doesnot appear as device or recognised by KIES. I reinstalled KIES (not KIES 3, although KIES3 is also installed on the machine to see but still getting the message "USB Device not recognized". Just to let you know that my 3 samsung mobile phones (S3, S4 and S6) are working fine and perfectly recognized by PC/KIES/Smartswitch
The tablet can be charged without an issue but it is not recognized at all by PC through USB. Looks like a dead end for me. Any help is highly appreciated as otherwise tablet was working fine until this problem occured. My tablet UK model is GT-N8010 and out of warranty.
Thanks
Fayyaz

Download PROPER DRIVERS. Usually they are downloaded by kies but sometimes, they don't work. In case of that, you have to download samsung drivers by yourself. I think you can find it in here or simply google it.
Here is an another issue with laptops that I also encountered: When you plug in, despite you having drivers, pc doesn't recognize it or constantly the device connects and disconnects every 2 seconds. In that case, you need to update your bios version. However, this case is not likely.(If you are not bad luck brian like me) So focus on driver installation.
