[Q] Galaxy S3 no longer detected! - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone, I have a biig problem: my s3 stopped being detected by my computer.
I took off the Hard Disk from my pc for two days and I used it as a slave on another pc. Yesterday I put it back on my pc and my s3 isn't detected anymore. It's weird because I used eclipse and usb debugging everyday in the last few moths, so it worked completely fine.
I tried to uninstall drivers and install again - nothing changed. I tried to install/reinstall kies, change cable, change usb port and no luck.
I thought my phone was the problem so I connected it to a laptop and it worked! it was detected!
If I connect another phone to my pc it is detected, so it's just a problem between my pc and my s3.
I also tried to wipe cache/wipe dalvik.
I'm desperate cause I'm a developer, I need my phone to being detected!
Thanks in advance!

I already installed them! I'm going to think it's a pc problem, but it's weird that it detects every phone but my s3, isn't it?

I just noticed that also OTG doesn't work anymore... so it could be a phone problem, but it is detected from other laptops!
I'm confused

Use mainboard USB port .
Use USBDEVIEW tool to remover drivers from the port then clean install of drivers .

Try booting a live Linux(don't forget to add the udev rules and restarting udev) and see if your phone gets detected.

Same thing happened to me. I just reinstalled making sure all other programs were closed and I haven't had the problem since.
Hope this helps.
Install Kies .
Reboot phone
Start Kies
Connect Let KIES find phone .
Turn KIES off from taskbar .
Turn USB debugging on phone connect USB mass storage mode and let windows find driver .
That do work try all the other posts same subject for an alternative .

No go
Tried all of the above, still no go, could it be my micro usb port on the phone is busted? When i tried connecting as Mass storage it says usb cable is connected, pls remove cable.

No thats just incorrect user settings .
Remove cable go to settings Applications Turn on USB debugging .
And?or turn usb mass storage mode on via settings Wireless and network USB settings then connect cable .

Yup, I did. I removed cables and turned on USB debugging, and tried the mass storage mode, upon connecting it says cable connected and to remove.
I'm getting this problem once I'm in Download mode. It's worked before... why would it stop?
Any tips?
I have the same problem
I seem to have the same problem I connect my phone via USB and get a USB Device Not Recognized message but MTP application opens on the phone. This has only just happened I have had it working before since I had the phone on 2 computers and have tried to different cables now it does not work on either computer. If any one has had any luck I would love to know how you fixed it.
Samsung Galaxy S2 - USB Device not recognized.
Hey Guys,
I have the same problem. I've even tried going into "Recovery" Mode and then running odin.. Still no luck. It just does not recognize the phone.
I tried a different cable but still no luck.
Guys,
i had had the same problem until i started to use the original USB cable(came with the phone).
Have a good luck!

Got the same usb problem, different pc's, driver, cables nothing works.
After three month of use no Kies Odin ore mass storage us....big problem
any news info on this? seems to be quite common, though I only get it with stock roms, custom roms dont seem to have this issue
Cables Guy; I'm trying to figure out if I'm having the same problem as you. Does your phone charge when plugged in? Because mine does not.
i think in your case it might be the usb port in the phone itself, if nothing that you plug works well.
I believe there is an issue with kies/MTP and windows drivers for the rest though.
For me my phone doesnt get detected o nmy onboard USB but it does on the usb3 pccard i have.
any good news to solve this problems?
i got the same problem and worst case is my phone cannot detect sim
I had the same problem.. I just switched back to the original cable that came with the phone & problem was solved..

[Q] Any way to make the i9100 detected (usb)

Hi,
I have a 9100 that I try to make windows 7 x64 detect. I tried with the drivers and even with kies but the phone is simply not detected as if it was not connected with the usb cable. I played with debug on/off, and mount button but nothing worked.
I can charge the battery with the usb cable but cant xfer files, its only charging the pone, nothing else.
Any idea of what could be the problem ?
Install usb drivers via kies.

Hi,
I already done that, still no detection, its not even telling unknown device.
Just as any other windows hardware reboot phone reboot PC .
Boot phone set to USB mode in settings connect cable wait for windows to install drivers .
KIES tools Install driver .
That fails read all the other exact same posts for a solution .

It was the usb cable the problem. I changed it, now its working, thx for the help.

If it is not recognized as USB storage, does the PC recognize it at all? You should at least find a unknown device in the device manager (even without drivers installed).

As I mentioned in your topic, clean the usb port.

Unable to connect with USB

Hello everybody,
I know there are thousands of threads like this, but none of them gives me a solution. If I try to connect my SG2 (Stock ROM) with an USB cable, I get a really annoying message all the time. (Screenshot: http://www.techiesguide.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/USB-device-not-recognized-1.gif) It's still charging. When I try to install the drivers, I get an error message too. It tries to install drivers through Windows Updates, which doesn't work. Maybe Samsung's old drivers will work... Does someone have them?
My USB port just work. I can use everything else with it. The cable also works, and I've tried several cables. USB Debugging is enabled on my phone.
Things I already tried:
-Install drivers through download mode
-Cleaning up the USB port
-Different USB ports and cables
-Reinstalling drivers/Samsung Kies
-Removing the battery
-Install drivers w/o SIM and SD card
-Manually install drivers
-Soft factory reset
-Samsung Kies' troubleshooting
-USB Mass Storage
I hope somebody knows a solution for this.
Thanks in advance,

Same problem for me, I think my Micro USB Port is broken (I'm pretty sure). Just replace it for ~10$ and you'll be fine

So i tried:
- Hard reset my phone
- Change my cable, USB port, computer ...
- Install, reinstall kies with drivers
- USB debug mode on, off
- Try to use *#7284# and *#0808# but nothing happend. ( for more information I can't use *2767*3855# too)
- Try to root with kingroot, ROMmanager, ... but can't. It seem like my phone block all these apps
- Try to find OEM unlocking but there's no option in developer options
Please help, i read all articles but nothing solve my problems I'm so hopeless
Have you connected the phone to the motherboard usb port and then installed kies then stopped the kies processes?. You can also uninstall the kies program while keeping the drivers.

No i havent. After i had installed kies with driver, i pluged in usb port. Nothing happened
Have the phone already connected so it can find it correctly..
If it still isn't detected by the computer, the USB port could be damaged.
