Hi,
Have bought a clone Galaxy s4 i9500 phone. Korean Made
Can connect to pc as usb storage device but not as a phone.I am not able to see the operating system files via usb storage just ordinary files. The phone has not any app buttons just a few games preloaded. When connecting to the internet the Baidu page comes up (Chinese)
The phone has limited settings ie Phone settings, Display, Security, Call settings and Connections
Due to this I am unable to check phone components in order to load drivers to connect or to enable usb debugging mode.
Did reset phone and tried many drivers and connection managers.
Phone memory apparently 1.2M? Memory file use presently 884.01k/1.2M
The phone does not have a file manager.
When connecting to a pc the following settings come up, Charging, U Disk and PC Connecting. PC Connecting under under other devices show as Two Usb Devices when connected. I use xp sp3 on the pc.
Downloaded apk programs to pc then to sd card on phone but unable to open them.
The phone built is as below
Can anybody on the forum identify the phone by the pictures.
Thank you
my gfs has the same phone, the korean version, the correct usb driver is an HTC one... i don't know what i did, but windows auto update downloaded that for me and it worked!!! this is just a first step for me.... now i need to root it, and still not getting it .. and no much ppl can help :| anyway for the driver, i hope it works for you! cheers!

Hi
Thank you for reading my post.
I do not know why, but active synch does not detect my Samsung i780. Even windows shows that a SGH-i780 is detected but nothing from the ActiveSyc side.
I installed Samsung USB driver and Active Syc 4.5, My windows is XP SP2 and all anti virus and firewalls are disabled.
Any advice is appreciated.
Thanks.

check active sync settings .
kindly try the following steps:
1. restart your phone
2. remove all usb devices (portable hdd, flash drives, etc.)
3. connect the cable first to your phone then to your pc.
if this doesnt work try reinstalling activesyc or check your cable.
i have experienced also this kind of of problem when usb devices are connected specially storage devices.
hope this one works
hallo
i had also the same problem..but now the problem is gone, try to uncheck the box in Connection---> USB to PC--> activation advandce networkfunktion. and then restart your pc and disconnect und reconnect your phone to your PC
hope it will work.
ps. sorry for my bad english
kindly install Microsoft ActiveSync 4.5 to your pc if your phone still not detect or regonize by windows even already install samsung modem driver.it works for me.

Have you put USB in debug mode?
Ciao
Hi Slumpolo,
Yeah, i have enabled the usb debugging option and rebooted the phone.
Before doing that I also went to Settings>About Phone>USB settings, and selected "mass storage" . This options gets disabled when USB debugging is on, but I did it just to be on the safe side.
Windows device manager shows that all the drivers are installed correctly.
i also did adb kill-server and adb devices multiple times.
Oh boy....its much deeper than that. Search YouTube "how to Android adb devices"...its kinda tricky.

Hi StaraSkola,
I went over all the videos I could find and I believe I am doing everything right. To verify my setup, I connected by friends Galaxy S I9000 and I was able to see it in adb devices.
I did the same with my GT-I5801, and it does not get listed in adb devices. I made sure I was in USB debugging mode.
One difference I noticed in device manager was this:
When I connected I9000, a device called "Samsung Android Composite USB device" showed up in the USB devices.
But when I connect the GT-I5801, I get a device called "Samsung Composite USB device" ... there is no android mentioned any where.
I have tried reinstalling the driver but Windows insists it cant find a better match.
Does this help in root causing the issue?
thanks,
srb.
I finally managed to connect to my GT-I5801, both via Samsung Kies as well adb. yay!
I will note down all the steps that I did, in case any one finds it useful.
1. I re-installed Samsung Kies and then I reinstalled the Samsung drivers. This can be done using the "Driver Recovery" option available in the top left drop down menu in the Kies window. Its a button called Kies. I did this as I had messed around with my devices and drivers trying to discover my phone. But this did not solve my problem.
2. I unmounted the SD card and re-formatted it. The SD card had a few mp3 files in it and Samsung Kies is known to have issues with some types of MP3 files. This did not solve my issue. Phone was still undiscovered.
3. My most drastic step: I went to settings > reset to default. This erased all my settings and all my installed apps and I lost all my notes etc ( .. But, after I connected my phone back to the laptop, everything came up just fine. I was able to browse the phone using Kies and then connect to ADB shell after enabling USB debugging mode. So the problem was with one of my installed apps. I dont know which but I suspect it could be a modded Navigation app (BRUT mod) , that I had installed. But I am not sure.
4. When connected using Kies, there is an option in Kies to eject the phone. If I use this, then Kies does NOT connect back to the phone when I plug it back in. I have to reboot the phone. The workaround is, never use the eject option. Always remove the phone by simply unplugging the USB cable. Then Kies discovers it on connecting back and even adb is able to connect to it. I dont know if other other Galaxy models suffer from the same problem but folks can try out this work around.
Thanks,
srb.
hello,i have several problems that are making me very angry.i use updated windows 7 32 bit.

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

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
Hey guys, I have a galaxy 3 with CM7 (kyrillos release) and I'm having a problem when using the phone to transfer files...
When I connect it to any PC without Kies, windows start searching for drivers, but it doesn't find anything, so the phone isn't recognized, and I can't transfer files...
In my pc, with Kies installed, I connected the phone and windows started searching for drivers and found, installed them and it's working fine...
So, what could be done to connect the phone sucessfully in other PCs without Kies?
Thanks
just install kies , it contains some drivers for your sd so the pc can see the sd..otherwise you could use a card reader and connect you sd straight to your pc/laptop
or else got to this thread and download the driver directly
There is no way to get USB storage working without downloading any files?
So I would need to carry with me a pendrive with the driver?!
yes if you don't have internet connection. All usb devices need a driver...
but when I put a pendrive, windows find the driver... but, when I put the phone, windows does not find
there are a few thousand drivers preloaded in windows to increase support out of the box for many devices, it's impossible to include every driver though
i think pendrives use a generic driver anyways
reflash the phone
install adb drivers for samsung in your pc
connect your phone to pc
u can find a small driver pack from google with only 10+m

I think there is no way to conect the phone to pc using cable without installing the drivers. But there is an app that can help you on your purpose, it's the AirDroid, you can find it in the market. With this app you just need to conect to the same wireless network as the computer you want to transfer files, and you're able to transfer files using the internet browser, and others stuff like manage contacts, messages, ringtones, apps...
I purchased a new Yuphoria Mobile. I have not installed sd card nor enabled developer options. When I connect to Laptop the phone is not getting detected. I just want to transfer some music files and I am not interested in enabling developer options or rooting phone. Can I do this? HOW?
I think there was a problem with the connecting USB cable. I tried with a brand new cable and I was able to connect laptop to Mobile. How do I delete this thread. This looks like a silly mistake.
I can't connect my yuphoria to pc
I m not able to connect yu yuphoria to my pc runs with win 7
Can any one give mw USB drivers??

First check with another usb cable. If it is working check with another device. If drivers is a problem. Go to control panel and update drivers. Or delete and allow windows to discover and load drivers online from windows. If it still does not work. Use Windows Dr.Fixit application you can download from windows download. Also update windows 7 with latest security updates. Also Check if your anti virus is updated and it is configured to allow devices connecting to laptop. If not enable it in antivirus settings.
If you determine the problem is not with the PC but could be with the phone. Go to Settings > Sytem > About Phone > Build no. Touch on build no 7 times quickly and it opens up developer options. Enable developer option and try.
When you connect a usb drive if you get a pop up asking connect as 1. Media device, 2.Camera, 3.Charge only. Choose 1.Media device if you choose 3 your computer will not detect the usb.
Hope above helps.
