Hi all, Ive had my captivate for about a week now and have been playing with it, I've been all over the web trying to figure out why I can't sync it with my pc Ive tried both my laptop with windows 7 and my desktop running XP. Nothing will work ive downloaded the drivers from Samsung's site and kies and kies mini with no luck. No matter what i do it says device not recognized windows has stopped the device and nothing shows up on the phones screen it just shows its charging, I'm guessing its something I'm doing but i just don't know what. Once I had so much trouble I connected a Samsung flight to my PC that's running XP and it worked just fine. Can anyone help me out i want to root the captivate so i can get take off all this att crap!!!
Did you mount the phone after plugging it into your computer? You should pull down the notification bar and it should give you the option to copy files to/from computer.
Also, set you usb settings to mass storage. It's in settings...can't remember where on stock.

Yes I have put the phone in all the different usb settings debugging,media player, mass storage, ask on connection, kies. When I plug it in the only thing that changes on the phone screen is its showing its charging it doesn't give me any option to mount. The same cable will connect my old Flight phone and that phone transfers files just fine. This really has me stumped.
You downloaded and installed drivers from this site? http://www.samsung.com/us/support/downloads/SGH-I897ZKAATT
This may sound random and stupid but are you plugging into a USB that is directly connected to the motherboard (back of the computer)? If you're on a laptop there is no way to test this...basically, there was some issues before of people not having their computer recognize their phone and the issue was too low of power from the USB.
Hopefully someone else can chime in as well. I'm pretty new to this too so I can only think of fairly basic things.
hi everyone. i received a samsung focus flash from at&t usa as a replacement phone.

Is anyone else having trouble getting their Samsung Galaxy S III (Verizon) to be recognized in their Windows 8 PC as a media device? I have explorer functionality when the phone is in camera mode but in media mode it does not appear in Computer.
I tried the phone on a Windows 7 PC and it works just fine, plug in play. I have downloaded the driver available on Samsung's website, but doesn't have mention of Windows 8 compatibility and during installation also prompts many messages of compatibility issues.
Thanks for your time and any help.
Also, the although I have file explorer functionality in USB camera mode, I am not able to transfer songs to the phone and a message is displayed by Windows that while in camera mode this type of transfer (music) is not compatible.
Did you try Kies air or try to somehow put the phone in compatibility mode to windows 7/vista?
For me MTP doesn't work well at all.
mine works fine.....I can see both internal and external sd cards and all the files on both of them.
Worked fine for me out of the box. Plugged it in and windows downloaded the driver, wanted a reboot and was fine since.
Works for me

Mine shows up but if I send over to many files at once it crashes the explorer.

Thanks for your replies guys.. I tried connecting the phone again to the computer this time into a different USB port and walah.. it shows up as a Portable Media Device. I'm back in business.
I am running the June 19 build of a CyanogenMod based on version 11-20140620-Sultan-skyrocket (Android 4.4.4).
I was working to reorganize my music library and finally dump iTunes. I am experimenting with a new Music Player that requires a USB synch using MTP.
The main reason for the switch from iTunes is that a lot of my Music is Lossless encoded and it just takes up too much room on my phone. I could not find an iTunes synching solution that would transcode those large files to a smaller format during the synch process (unless I go with an iPod / iPhone).
When I switch my phone to MTP mode, the PC (Windows 8.1) does not recognize it. If I switch to Mass Storage (UMS) the phone shows up in the file explorer.
Any suggestions on how to get the MTP working would be appreciated.
Thanks
Go to device manager and look for the the icon with an exclamation mark, with your phone hooked up to usb. Right click on it and update software. Then go to where it says let me pick from a list..... Choose android composite adb interface. It'll ask you if your sure, just say yes.

Sorry for the slow reply and Thanks for the post. Unfortunately Windows would not let me update the driver in error in the Device Manager. It said it was an unrecognized USB Device and would not browse for additional drivers. I tried every way I could think of to "force" it.
Just to help determine what might be going on, I restored the ATT / Samsung ICS using CWM. Unfortunately I am having similar issues with that. Sometimes the USB connects and sometimes it is unrecognized. I tested the cables and my Windows 8.1 PC with my Galaxy 5 (stock ATT KITKAT) and everything seems to work fine. I guess the micro USB port on my phone must be going bad.
Thanks again

Windows 8 can be a pita to get drivers installed

Hi,
My girlfriend has some issues with her W10 PC. She's on the normal builds (not Insider), latest updates.
The PC is able to read other USB sticks, so the ports are not broken. The phone is identified by the PC, but it only works as a charger. When the state is changed to MTP, nothing appears in My Computer.
I tried to hook it to my W7 work laptop and everything was fine. I have to add that no drivers for the phone were installed on my part.
Any idea if this is a known glitch with W10? I'm on the Skip Ahead builds, so I don't think it's relevant if I check it on my personal laptop.
Thing is, the phone was seen by the PC just fine until a while ago (I don't know what ago means, girls have weird time perception when it comes to technology).
Any hints on what can I do to fix this?
Thanks!
I use Windows 10 Pro with latest updates and Windows and Odin see the phone but not adb for some reason.
