Verizon software upgrade assistant installer - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6

Both of my windows laptops don't detect the Verizon partition that contains the installer, but my friend's mac does.
I already downloaded the samsung driver and installed it on the windows laptops.
Anyone can asist?

When you connect your phone to your computer, a notification message will pop up on your phone. Open that notification and it will have two or three options MTP, PTP, etc.
Here you can choose to install drivers.

Great help !

Hi,
Im new to windows mobile, i have titan 7, when i connect to computer via usb nothing comes up, didn't installed any drivers becuase i search the google for usb drivers for this but didn't get any so please help.
thx

Windows Mobile doesn't really exit anymore, first of all. You have Windows Phone 7 (no, not "Windows 7 Phone" like some people say, and yes, the branding is stupid). Despite the similar name it's a very different product from WinMo, although a bit of the low-level code is shared.
Your PC *should* have automatically installed the WP7 driver when you connected the phone, but all it would have done in that case is tell you to then install the Zune software, which is used for syncing with the phone. You can get Zune at http://zune.net, and it should include the needed drivers.
Note that some things, like USB Mass Storage access to the phone's filesystem, just aren't normally possible with WP7.

z3 wireless pairing problem

I have 2 windows 7 64bit with pretty much the latest updates. I was able to successfully pair the phone with one computer using the basic steps: connect USB - chose pair - right click on the phone icon in my computer - choose network configuration - and so on..
However, on the 2nd windows 7 pc, after USB is connected, I don't have the "network configuration" option showing after right clicked on the phone. What might be the problem? I tried reinstall the driver and still not working. File transfer via USB, ADB are all working fine.
Am I missing something?
thanks,

Nexus 5 problem connecting to PC with USB

I've had this problem before, but I have always been able to fix it by uninstalling ADB and drivers, through WUG's toolkit, changing cables, device manager/update drivers, jumping up and down while spinning and plugging cable in, among other things. However, this time is different and I'm not sure if it is because of M on my phone or the Windows 10 update. This problem has been going on for over a month now, and I've had both since it started. I've tried all the above mentioned things, along with everything else I can find, and none of them work.
The only way I can get my computer to recognize my phone to share files is to go into device manager every I plug it in is to; go to device manager, right click to update driver, select do it from my pc, select driver in folder. After doing this it works perfectly fine, but I have to do it every time I plug my phone in or every time my phone turns off while it's plugged in. The error message I get on my computer is "USB device not recognized" when I go into device manager it says "device descriptor request failed" It does this on both of my PCs. Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated!

I think I'm getting something similar since I've installed "M"....
Under:
Settings -> Developer Options -> Select USB Configuration
It say's it's set to "MTP (Media Transfer Protocol)"; it really isn't. When I plug the phone in, under Win 8.1, a desktop window opens with "AOSP on Hammerhead" (or something like that), but there's nothing in it. Now for some magic....
With the phone in one hand, and the mouse in the other:
1. Open Settings -> Developer Options -> Select USB Configuration
2. Touch "MTP (Media Transfer Protocol)" (even if it's already selected)
3. Listen for the PC/Windows Desktop (it should give an audible sound)
4. Immediately click on the "AOSP on Hammerhead" text in the path listed on the open Windows widow ("This PC -> AOSP on Hammerhead")
5. You should see an "Internal Storage" folder appear
6. Open the folder, enjoy MTP

Can't connect to PC for file Transfer

Brand New Unlocked S8+... Tried to connect it to my PC to use a previous copy of smart switch backup but it never connects.. Windows Explorer never displays a mounted drive either. Smart Switch Eventually comes back with Failed to connect to the device.
The Phone displays the "Attention The connected device is unable to access data pm this device. Reconnect the USB cable and try again...."
Phone is on Transfer Media files (MTP)
USB Debugging is one.
Device Manager says "Samsung Android Phone - SAMSUNG Android ADB Interface" two times - No red or yellow exclamations.
I've removed the software in device manager and restarted both the phone and the laptop multiple times.
I updated Smart Switch and did More\Reinstall Device Driver.
Does anyone else have any workarounds for this? I found one article (https://www.recovery-android.com/connect-samsung-to-computer.html) but still no success.
​
I actually have the exact same issue on windows 10. Anyone figured out a solution?
Doesn't seem like there is much help here on the 2 Samsung formums I posted on....
I know its not my windows profile as I have tried 3 different profiles as well as safe mode.
Tried 2 different sets of Samsung USB drivers and no improvement.
Like I said I had no issues on a windows XP machine or a windows 10. I didn't even need to install the USB drivers/Smartswitch on either of those machines.
We can't be the only 2 people!

Firstly, i cannot give you direct answers.
Just my thoughts.
i have a S8+. No root stock as is.
I have Lenovo laptop Win 10.
From day one, out of box, i connected
S8+ and it connected. I can do whatever
i want. Transfer data, photos videos.
ADB etc
So it should work...?
However i do realize there are quite a few things to consider......
Samsung drivers on laptop and a few other
issues..... eg
For one,
have you enabled
in Phone /Settings /Developers Option /Usb debugging.?
Normally first time when you connect
With pc /laptop you should get
a small pop-up message(on device) to allow
phone to connect.?
(that's my experience, over years)
Good luck
Yes, USB Debugging is on and connection is set to MTP.
Windows recognizes "USB Android" but dosnt install the driver successfully.
It will appear as a modem in Device manager but nothing is mountable.
I have 2 desktop pcs with win 10. One with samsung software Kies 3 and smart switch installed and the other no samsung software. Both find the device Galaxy S8+, in device manager under universal serial device controllers i have Samsung Mobile USB Composite Device. You have an adb driver I think because you have usb debugging on, i would turn usb debugging off. The pc should find a device connected to the usb and download a driver, once done the device is recognised as galaxy S8+ in my case but will not communicate with the pc until the phone has given permission. On the phone will be a message asking you to allow the connection. Hope this helps ??

Firstly i do understand that you
must be quite annoyed trying to figure
out issues. (I would) Thankfully i don't.
Bottom line is that it should work..!
My experience confirms, that S8+/laptop Win 10 works.... 100%when connected
However a few suggestions.
If you feel you checked all checkbox.?
However you never said anything
about popup notice ? granting premission
for device to connect.?
So device /laptop /pc is not "seeing" each other?
All Samsung devices I have used, first time connection gives me this popup a notice
Can't remember exact wording.
Something... eg
Device id 5786446.......
Have or does your other Samsung devices
connect etc.?
Have you tried connecting to a friend pc laptop.
An option is to go to a Samsung Care Center
and as them to test and connect.
My experience (in past) is that they should
assist you.
If it connects to friend pc or Service provider /Samsung Care Centre.
Then surely it has to be your pc/laptop?
So I turned off usb debugging and revoked the permissions on the phone, connected it to my PC.
Samsung Android (with a Yellow Exclamation) was already present in Device Manager under "other devices" so I uninstalled that.... and rescanned. My laptop attempted to reinstall but it generated a Driver Installation Failed message on "SAMSUNG_Android" - no driver found.
Device Manager once again shows the Yellow Exclamation Point
I would go on to Samsung support look up the phone and download the usb driver and install from the download. Good luck
I've downloaded the drivers from Samsung 2x.

I can vaguely remember that i had this same
issues with my Note 5 and Win 10.
This was many months/year or two, ago.
I also had yellow exclamation etc.
Further in Device manager( laptop) kept installing wrong Samsung drivers.!
I uninstalled drivers/installed and battle for a few months like this Then one day Windows
did an update and in update i noticed
Samsung drivers included etc. (must have been correct)
Ever since that update i had no issues again.
Bottom line... some drivers issue?
Not S8 +?
Good luck

In the past I had this problem I downloaded USBDeview to my PC and deleted all of the old Samsung drivers, after rebooting the PC the phone was able to connect with the PC.
Tried USBDeview and removing the Samsung drivers but no difference
Still unable to connect.
I'm having this problem as well. I'm still trying to work it out, but when I remove and re-add the device through Device Manager I get this error: "An existing device was found that is a duplicate of the device being manually installed" and the device DOES connect as a camera, just not for full file transfer.
I had the same problem and tried many of the fixes, including different USB cables and different computers and different phones. I finally figured out that the case I had on the S8+ was the problem (at least for me). I took it off and everything works.
Hi, i have a pc with windows 10 . In device manager under universal serial device controllers i have Samsung Mobile USB Composite Device. i think you should meet best mobile shop.

I have Windows on Lenovo Laptop with latest Windows updates installed. Yesterday, I downloaded Samsung Smart Switch unlocked the phone and connected it to the laptop. Smart Switch found it immediately and I did a backup. I did not need to check Device Manager. It must be a drivers problem as mentioned above.
Note 8, getting "Attention The connected device is unable to access data pm this device."
And I am only able to see some files, Sammy is a crazy fool, this is basic stuff
installed the windows fall update a week ago now connect my phone to my laptop and nothing is recognised, no phone memory and no memory card just a empty space when i click the icon where my phone should be, i've had samsung drivers installed and they have worked fine so far till today, any ideas where to find the latest drivers? and what else i can do to get access to my phone on my laptop?
solution that worked for me
On my windows 10 PC, I opened device manager (open up start and just type 'device manager') and under portable devices there was a usb device called MTP USB device or something like that (I forget the exact name) with a small triange and an exclamation mark next to it. I clicked on that and then clicked "update drivers." When the prompt comes up I chose the automatically look for drivers option. This fixed the issue and now my Galaxy s8 is recognized (it no longer says MTP USB device or whatever it was). Hopefully this works for others as well. You can also probably download the usb drivers for the phone from samsung.

Can't connect Pixel and Windows 10.

When I plug in my pixel into my Windows 10 laptop, neither device responds. This means that I get neither the AutoPlay pop up on the laptop, or the USB option notification on the phone.
What I have tried:
Plugging into a Windows 7 laptop; the AutoPlay box appears on the laptop, the USB options notification appears on the phone
Tried all USB ports on the Windows 10 laptop.
Confirmed that other USB devices appear correctly on the Windows 10 laptop
Any thoughts?
Guidance?

Have you installed the latest fastboot and adb. If not download them here and make sure to add the folder containing the files in your path or unzip the files to your Windows directory. I had the same problem on Windows 10 when I was running it and that fixed it for me.
Check in Device Manager to see if the Android device is listed. If it's listed but is indicated as not having a driver loaded, you can always download the latest drivers from https://developer.android.com/studio/run/win-usb.html and the latest platform tools at https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-windows.zip.
Extract the drivers, right click the non-working Android entry in Device Manager, point it to the main folder you extracted the drivers into and see if it'll load the drivers. This may not be the problem but worth a try. Even if it doesn't solve it on Windows 10, try the same thing on Windows 7. Windows 7 may be too old that it won't automatically find the correct necessary driver like it should on 10.

Google search terms: Windows 10, Pixel driver, XDA yields this:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-xl/how-to/guide-fix-mtp-driver-windows-10-t3570625
Simple enough? Hope it works for you.
thanks, but no luck
@Misterxtc thank you. Already tried. No luck
 @oirraW the device does not appear in Device Manager.
 @bobby janow I am familiar with Google. Believe it or not, I even went to page 3 of the search. The solution you found has been tried and does not work.
Install Linux, no drivers to install, it just works
Some dumbed down versions you might have to do
apt install adb fastboot
You never have to reboot, only if new kernel, and that too is going to change

Until you can get it to show up in Device Manager, there's nothing else you can do. Try a different USB port? Reboot the PC? Try a different cable if you have one? I can't think of anything else to try other than reinstalling Windows. I haven't had any trouble on Windows 7 or 10.
@piperx might be extending my tech skills a little too far. @roirraW "edor" ehT that is a pity.
Thanks all for your help; if I stumble across a solution, I'll post back.

Where's your sense of adventure ,?
If you can use Windows you can use Linux ?

clutching at straws but worth trying as tell the computer sees the phone and lists it you are stuck so enable developer options then enable usb debugging and set usb configuration to MTP then with the phone connected and the phone unlocked reboot the phone keeping the phone unlocked all the time.

It's not the use of it, it's the installation of a dual boot that doesn't take up too much space.
I did go have a look, suggestions are Ubuntu or Mint. Would like the smaller one.

Make a bootable USB of each distro you want to try. It's super easy with Rufus. This way you can try it without installing anything or wasting blank disks. I like Mint, it's basically Ubuntu with a face-lift.
No app needed to do simple things from command line ?

i'm not having much luck.. the device manager still either shows "pixel?" if the phone is set to no transfer.. or "MTP?" if phone set to file transfer... if I update drivers.. it says it tries then fails / had an error... any ideas?
@tithij You ever figure this out? I have the same problem I've even replaced the daughterboard but can't get the phone to show up in device manager when in bootloader mode.

I haven't actually done anything to fix it except to upgrade my phone and laptop.
Phone is on Android 9
Windows enterprise is on 1709
Now when I plug the phone in, I get the options on the phone and laptop. I choose File transfer and it works.
Not really helpful. But sometimes it seems apathy solves all problems.
If Pixel phone on connecting to windows only shows up in File Manager when you choose PTP option in the Pixel’s USB Preferences (and disappears from Explorer when you select File Transfer), you will be restricted to the DCIM and photos directory, thanks to the miserable ADB Composite driver that keeps getting updated or installed for morons who can’t handle full drive access in their pixels. ADB and PTP were designed so idiots would not need to worry about anything other than their media directories on their Pixel phones.
For anyone above age 4, full access to the Pixel SD memory is preferred. To fix the above, it is necessary to ditch the ADB drivers and get the generic MTP drivers back instead in Windows. Here’s how I did it on a Pixel 4XL with android 12 or 13:
Unplug phone, make sure Developer’s Options is ‘on’ and that USB Debugging is ‘on’
Ensure that in USB Preferences, it is defaulted to File Transfer/Android Auto and NOT to PTP
In Windows, open Device Manager, View, and check ‘show hidden files’
Then, open View-Devices by Type-Portable and delete/uninstall your Pixel phone, all of them if there’s more than one.
Then start looking for anything that says Android or ADB, and delete every shred of anything that’s an ADB Driver interface, whether composite, USB, whatever. If it has ADB in it alone or under LeMobile or Acer, it’s got to go. Uninstall and delete them
Plug in phone
Under Device Manager-View-Devices by Type-Portable find your Pixel device. Right click and Update Driver. Then, click Browse My computer, then click Let Me Choose, and then click MTB USB Device… I picked the bottom-most one
That’s it, it should work
