Help w/ Replacement Note 4 says unknown device in Windows. Old works fine - Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling drivers.
I have installed kids and then smart switch.
My old note 4 that was defective shows up in Windows but the replacement shows as 'unknown device'
I tried safe mode to un install drivers and different USB ports.
Is my device defective? Any ideas?
Thanks!

Maybe try going to developer options and checking if usb debugging is turned off. Try turning it on. Try a different usb port. Try to switch between different usb modes in the notification area when connected. Last but not least factory reset your phone in recovery mode and try connecting it after.

I am experiencing the same problem but I have another problem as well. My phone is an unrooted Galaxy Note 4 running 5.0.1 w/ VRU2BOG5 build. I have tried just about all the USB ports on my computer and get the same result, "unknown device". I have uninstall and reinstalled kies and the associated drivers and still get the same result. I have factory reset the phone and still the same. I was even able to do a firmware upgrade and initialization via kies and still the same problem.
The other problem I am faced with is I can not seem to get any OTG cable to work on my device. Could this be hand in hand?
I am not sure if you (the OP) have noticed but when you installed kies, have you gotten an error for your ethernet controller under other devices in your device manager?
I really like the phone but if I can't 1) root it or 2) transfer data via the usb port (especially through the OTG cable), the phone is useless to me. Any help would be very appreciated.

The USB port may be defective. I replaced mine on my note 2 myself for cheap. But if the phone is still under warranty let them deal with it. You guys tried different cables/computers?

I am not entirely sure it's a bad port but could be. On my note, everything besides a flash drive via OTG cable works. Oh and the computer but it will connect to my laptop. I dunno I'm about to sell the phone.

I need all the luck I can get My computer has had issues before but it has since been fixed. I can hook any other device to it with no issues. As far as phones go, I'm not entirely sure which one I want. Guess it doesn't matter much since not many can be rooted.

It's your cable. Go to Radio Shack and buy their $26 micro-USB cable. I tried stock USB cables from Samsung and Palm on several different computers and consistantly got the "unrecognized USB device." As soon as I switched to a better cable, every single computer that couldn't recognize my Epic before, now recognizes it every time I connect.

If these don't work, then find and install "pdanet" (without the quotes)..
Select samsung and you're golden. This was the only way I could get my 64 bit Windows 7 Ultimate machine to recognize my device.
If this still doesn't work, go to Radio shack and get the nice cable (like was mentioned above)... I have one and it works like a champ.
I hope this helps
HI
i tried the 64 bit it also fail to install on my windows xp in i hope its just my usb i just bought a usb again this time from ebay thanks guys

Again, its the cable. I just verified it again by plugging in my stock Samsung cable and got the "Unrecognized USB device" warning. I DO NOT get that with the Radio Shack cable. I can't promise you that the cable you are getting from eBay will be any better. If it doesn't work, then its just another crappy cable. However, I can promise you that the Radio Shack cable will work.
THANK YOU

Well the good news is you can charge your phone with all of the cables you got and the shipping was free. Otherwise, I'll bet you get the same problem with the micro-usb cable. You get what you pay for...maybe you got lucky. The Radio Shack cable was $26. Way too much to spend for a stinkin' USB cable, but I finally threw in the towel and spent the money. Fortunately, every machine I plugged it into recognized it immediatley.
THANKS

Go into control panel, system, device manager and try hitting update drivers on Samsung Android with phone connected with usb debugging on. If that don't work uninstall drivers and reinstall. Reboot computer and phone too.

I would suggest buying a new cable and trying that. Seems a lot of users are encountering this lately. The wires that carry data fail, but the wires that carry power still function. It doesn't have to be a Samsung branded cable, but one specifically for charging/data for the SGH-T989. It happened to me both on this phone, and my Transformer. Both times it was solved by using a new cable.
Your local electronics store should carry what you need. Good luck!

I tried it. No help :/. I think it is the phone's usb port that makes this problem. Probably I'll send it to samsung company to have it fixed.
Before u diagnose the phone as the issue i would check and try plugging it to another pc besides the one that doesnt detect it because i have the same issue with my main pc. When i plug it it opens up as an unreadable drive, it wount open or anything, but when i plug it to my laptop it works perfect.
kind of wierd but it works. i also tried installing kies and didnt help at all. now it it still doesnt work than yea probably the phone.

Also remove sim, sd card, and battery for a bit then replace. Also, get the most "official" cable you can. I'm working with an old evo cable and an old g2 cable. Some of the car charging ones/generics won't play nice. Try blowing (light laughing allowed) into the port.

Ok here is what i did:
1-enable EHCI on your computer from device manage >> http://www.intel.com/technology/usb/ehcispec.htm
2-took a portable toothbrush with isoprop (swabbing alcohol)
3-took my phone to the gas station ...25c air and dried the crap out of it
4-wipe/reset my phone from fast boot menu (not android menu)
5-got an LG "B" data cable...
voila monsieur !!!! i dont know which was the silverbullet but i aint complainin.
However, it was still nice to know that Samsung is a no questions asked manufacturer.
Someone was having the same issues as mine in russia, and he said ICS 4.0 did it and is waaaaaaaaaaay better for this phone. Im gonna give this to a friend and WILL NOT touch these till ICS 4 officially comes out here. Tooo much hassle and ive got too much info riding on it (phone). <<personal opinion

[Q] Problem with OTG

Hi, I am having a slight problem and am at a loss.
First of all, my phone is stock. I bought my OTG cable a few months ago and it worked just fine. I was using it to play games with my PS3 remote. However, with less time on my hands, I put the games aside and with it, I was no longer using my OTG cable.
Whenever I plug in the OTG cable, nothing happens and I don't get a notification that a USB device is connected. I have confirmed that it is not the OTG cable as I have tried it on 3 other phones, all of which responded to the cable connecting.
I am not sure when this problem started happening, but I didn't notice until yesterday when I was trying to use my OTG cable. In addition, when I plug in my phone to my laptop, my phone doesn't give me the option to turn on debugging mode. Again, I don't know when this problem actually began. I mention this because I am not sure if it is relevant to my OTG cable problem. Yes, I have checked and debugging mode is enabled.
I am not sure what to do and I have scoured the web trying to find a solution. Maybe I am searching in the wrong places, or maybe I am not just searching correctly, but I figured that my last option was coming here.
I thank you ahead for your time and hope that a solution can be found. I will be more than happy to provide any more details of needed.

Sounds like a bad USB port. You can replace it yourself, or do a warranty exchange. I don't think it's software related but try factory resetting. Or another ROM.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using Tapatalk 2
It sounds similar to what my phone was doing a few days ago. I don't have the OTG, but when I plugged my phone in to the computer, it only went to charge mode and didn't give the USB options, and the computer didn't recognize it at all. I ended up flashing back to stock rooted and it started working again. I flashed CM and then AeonFluxx again and it continued working, so I assume that it was either an app I had installed or something extra I had flashed. Either way, it's working now.
TL;DR Try reflashing before you start tinkering with the hardware, that fixed a similar problem for me.

Alright, thanks guys.
I think I am just going to do a factory reset.
I am able to charge my phone just fine and it connects to the computer just fine as well (Heck, I can do what many others can't....connect to Kies). I have no problems with data transfers either.
So I assume this is a software based problem.
...I may as well root while I am at it....
Haha, I will tinker around a little bit more before I do a factory reset and come back with my results.
Thanks again!
Are you using a kernel with fast charge?
Never mind. You are not rooted so that is not the issue.
Well, it looks like the factory restore didn't solve either issue. So I ended up calling it in and hopefully the replacement phone will work. Gonna have to wait a bit though...GS3's are currently on back order.
Thanks again for the advice though guys! Appreciate it!

Computer doesn't recognize phone

When I plug my phone pc gives me error that it doesn't recognize the USB device. I tried to adb to phone, still no luck. I was on cm11, reinstall rom. I uninstall driver from device manager, and adb drivers. Still can't connect. I was reading on the Internet maybe the device is bad. I had my nexus for 2 years and I never had this problem. Adb and my computer would always recognize my device. The thing that sucks my Verizon contract expired so I cancel my service. I was going to program my phone for page plus, but I can't because my computer won't recognize my phone. I had to activate my Samsung fascinate with page plus, but it sucks cuz I really wanted my nexus, can anyone help?

Could be a few things, but I would try a different USB port on your PC, then I would try a different USB cord, and then try a different PC. If none of those get you a different result then could be the USB/charging port on your device, even though it may charge, it may still have trouble transferring data. I have seen on here where others have changed the port on their device and say it is fairly easy, I have not had to do so yet so I can't say from experience. If you are sure that you have the latest Samsung drivers installed on your PC then I doubt it is software related (not positive). Not sure if I am any help, just throwing out some suggestions. Maybe someone else can add some more definitive answers for you.

Well I got my phone to work. I was reading how someone use a toothpick to lift up the tongue inside the USB port. So I use a tiny flathead messed with it for like a hour, kept plugging it to my pc until it connected. Once it did I push all the files I needed with adb to get it ready to get it ready to be program for page plus.

Having a Number of Problems

Hello to all. I am emperiencing a number of problems on my deb. Some are listed below. These problems were not experienced in the first 3 months:
1) THE BATTERY
I cannot use the tablet while charging. It does not charge i.e. It needs to be in a specific position to charge.
Also, I am experiencing Huge Battery Drain. It charges 5-15% in 2:30 hours. This happened after I used the PA 4.5 beta 1(Using MultiROM. This stayed even after I deleted the ROM And reverted back to stock.
2) THE SIM CARD
I don't know when it happened but the sim was working fine before. I didn't use the sim very often except for validating whatsapp. But as I tried to validate, no messages arrived at my nexus. I thought that the sim had become defective. But it worked just fine in other phones!
I even contacted Asus about this but they asked me to first factory reset it. I decided it was too big a deal and did not.
3)THE OTG CABLE
My Nexus recognized the otg usb drive at first. When I tried to use it again, It just wouldn't recognize it. Tried using a mouse too (had worked before). Did not work. Tried on different roms. Nope.
4) USB COMPUTER CONNECTIONS
I had used it before to copy files from my laptop to my nexus. It worked fine. After some time, I tried to do it again, the pc would recognize it sometimes say it was unknown sometimes say it was Nexus 7 but wouldn't install drivers. Tried using Wug's to no avail.
Today, I tried using it on my other pc. The drivers installed just fine, but there was no sign of it in My Computers. In Wug's, the device was able to operate fully! It tried using various backup commands, and they worked! But the push/pull command did not work. Though that turned out to be a problem of the toolkit as I pulled the files I need with ADB PULL command in cmd.
So, as some of these problems are hardware related, I am thinking of giving it back to Asus. I am rooted and performing The Wug's Flash Stock +Unroot Option Now. Please if you have any advice, post it here.
THANKS IN ADVANCE.

Judging from the symptoms, you likely have a bad usb port. I wouldn't say the cable since your otg cable yielded the same result. According to some, it's really fragile when you handle it rough. The port is soldered to the I/O board so either you (1) try to bend back the inside pins; or (2) replace it if you're skillful enough with your iron; or (3) replace the board (ouch!). It's a shame if you have to choose (3) since that means throwing the board away for just one bad component. Litter.
1) The inside pin is fine. The cable just seems really loose. Though the other cables have the same effect.
2)I dont have the skill.
3)Why should I waste any money if It is under warranty?
And usb otg should come at least once, as the tab does charge once maintained in a specific condition.
And As the tablet charges when its connected to a pc, its not a problem of bad usb port

I didn't realize your tab was still under warranty. Nevertheless, the fact that the cables fit loosely suggest that the housing is not in good condition and the pins, in turn, while not damaged, make poor connection (to wit, the tab charged only if held in a certain position). If the tab consistently charges while connected to a PC, then you're right, the fault lies elsewhere, like a jarred battery connector, or the other USB end, or the charger itself. This, however, leaves the OTG issue unexplained. Warranty seems your best bet for the moment, however. Good luck.
I don't think it can be a mistake of mine, so Asus will definitely have to replace it.
Thanks for your support though!
