Galaxy S6 = "unknown USB device" ? - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6

Hi, since Samsung has finished support for Galaxy S6, i'd like to install the latest lineageOS on my SM-G920F. It has the latest (and last) official Samsung ROM (Nougat) and recovery and is not rooted, so I have to establish a USB-connection to a PC. But when I connect the device to my computer, it won't be detected. I've tried several different connectors on 3 different PCs running Windows 7, Windows 10 and Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. But the device never gets recognized, neither in working nor in download mode.
When I connect it to a Windows PC in download mode, I receive a message on my PC, that an unknown device has been connected. Now I start the "Zadig" tool (part of the heimdall suite for windows) to install the drivers and make it list all devices, but it just shows me an unknown USB device with VID 0000 and PID 0002.
Samsung drivers are installed on Windows PCs
USB debugging is enabled on device
ADB and heimdall are installed on Ubuntu PC
Any suggestions on how to install TWRP and lineageOS with or without USB connection?

[Q] usb serial driver

Where can i download a free serial usb driver for windows smartphone?
What do you want to do? Serial interface is already included via Bluetooth (incoming and outgoing port) - not sure about USB, despite AS connection in "not enhanced mode (RNDIS)" is said to be "serial" as well.
I need the driver to connect my smartphone to a new pc via usb. My old pc crashed recently and i wasnt able to backup any software. Also, ive lost the cd which came with the phone and i dont know where to get a replacement.
You need a driver for the PC, not on the device. I have no experience with new OS, only Win XP. What happens when you connect the device via USB to the new PC?
My os is winxp. When i connect to the pc it says "found new hardware generic serial" then it brings the found new hardware wizard . I cant continue since i dont have the recquired driver on a removable disk or anywhere on the pc.my phone is spv c600
You need to install Active Sync first on your PC. This should install also all needed drivers for the device to connect. Look here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...34-6f7f-404d-a04b-dc09f8141141&displayLang=en
I have already installed activesync 4.5 but i didnt see it install any drivers.
Is WinXP on the latest Service Pack (SP3 I think) and does it have all Microsoft patches installed afterwards?
AS install should put the drivers to the repository for later install when needed - it will not install the drivers right away. Why don't you let the driver's install look for the drivers in the internet - I don't remember any similar problems on my PC.
Search Microsoft for USB serial driver and RNDIS driver for XP if install does not get it for you automatically.
Oh! It has dected the phone. I reinstalled it while the device was connected to the pc and it worked . thanx so much

I have MTP and USB tethering working on my dell xp PC
To get tethering working you need USB debugging enabled and then select USB tethering... Obviously you'll need the proper drivers setup and installed.
When I select USB tethering and then check in Device Manager it shows my N5 connected under "Network Adapters" as "Windows Mobile-based internet sharing device" I right click on it and select Properties and then select the Drivers Tab and then select Driver Details it shows 2 driver details listed -
1. C:\Windows\system32\DRIVERS\rndismpx.sys - which is Remote NDIS miniport
2. C:\Windows\system32\DRIVERS\usb802x.sys - which is Remote NDIS USB driver
Your gonna want to take a look a my post about MTP and try and get that setup also... Here's my post from another thread -
Well I can tell you what transpired... I was having MTP and fastboot driver issues when I was trying to unlock the Bootloader and root my lenovo a2109 tablet. I finally got the fastboot driver installed but I was still having MTP driver issues. I did a lot of research on MTP and tried a lot of solutions. Something's that I did was update windows media player to 10 or higher, I installed mtppk12 = MTP porting kit, Microsoft user mode drivers, installed Android SDK, Java and .net framework 4.0 I also have the latest version of Microsoft ActiveSync installed as this added additional USB drivers for my PC to communicate with my windows phone.
I have all kinds of drivers installed on my PC. I have my N5, 2 other lg phones, 2 Samsung's, 2 Tablets, a Huawei, all are android devices and a HTC windows phone. MTP mode works on all of them except the HTC windows phone obviously, but USB debugging has to be disabled and I don't have to reboot my phones to get them to connect.
When I connect my N5 to my PC with only MTP selected and check in device manager it shows up under "Portable devices" as "Nexus 5" when I right click on it and select properties, then click on the drivers tab and select, driver details it shows 2 driver details -
1. "C:\windows\system32\drivers\wpdusb.sys" which is WPD USB driver
2. "C:\windows\system32\drivers\wudfrd.sys" which is Windows driver foundation - User mode drive framework reflector.
It shows the same driver details for all my android devices and lists them under portable devices in device manager by there names. eg. Nexus 5, LGMS 769, LGMS 770, A2109 and so on.
I also have MTP Enhanced.exe installed to the root of my C:\ Drive
Good luck

[Q] Nexus 5 USB driver issues

I started to have this issue since I have formatted my PC (I've got Windows 7 Professional).
If I connect the device without the debugging USB activated, the PC doesn't recognize it, such as the device doesn't exist. Neither the classic sound which the PC does when you connect something to the USBs ports. Nothing, without the debugging USB my PC doesn't recognize nothing, and the device only goes charging, the notify of the USB connected doesn't appear, it could be because the PC doesn't recognize the device.
But if I activate the USB debugging my PC recognizes something. The auto-installation from Windows Update for the drivers starts (it says "Nexus 5"), but it doesn't find any driver on Windows Update. So I've downloaded the original Google USB drivers. I've gone on Computer -> Device -> Right click on Nexus 5 -> Update of the drivers. So I selected the unzipped folder but Windows doesn't install the drivers. It says it's impossibile to find the driver for the device, but I've selected the correct folder!
I've also tried to download the drivers with SDK Manager, but even in this way Windows doesn't install the drivers.
I've also tried to download the "naked drivers" from XDA, but that was the same result.
So I don't know how to do. Why Windows doesn't recognize my device?
My Nexus 5 is still with the stock firmware.

I had this issue with my first N7 2013. I ended up RMAing it because of touchscreen issues, and the replacement never had the issue. From my experience, I can only deduce it's a problem with the hardware.

[NEED HELP] How to enable debug mode from TWRP Recovery?

Hey guys!
I have a rooted Samsung Galaxy S6 G920I.
The problem with this thing is that I had the debug mode disable and I forgot about that.
I started the phone in TWRP and wipe everything to install another OS.
Problem is...Now I can't connect my phone to install the new OS. Windows, Linux or MacOS does not detects the phone.
When I connect my phone to Linux or MacOS it's like I never connected anything. Windows detects the USB connection but says "The last USB device you connected to this computer malfunctioned and Windows does not recognise it.".
In Device Manager appears as "Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed)"
I tried with Samsung USB Drivers, Android SDK, 4 USB different cables, OTG, and nothing.
I see a Terminal in TWRP, so I was wondering if it's possible to enable Debug mode or whatever I need to connect the phone and transfer a new OS.
Thanks in advance!
