SAMSUNG Mobile MTP Device error mounting Samsung Galaxy S3 on Windows
Anyone have a solution for the inability to mount an S3?
http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7421/1...453e865e_o.jpg I had already downloaded and installed the Samsung driver found at: http://www.samsung.com/us/support/downloads Here is the Windows USB driver that I had prior installed: http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7301/1...d186ef6e_o.jpg But whenever I plug the Galaxy S3 into the WinXP USB port, I get: There was a problem installing this softwa SAMSUNG Mobile MTP Device The result is that the S3 won't mount onto the WinXP SP3 PC with the Samsung Galaxy S3 in MTP mode.

Have you gone nto "My COmputer" "Manage" "System Devices " See if its in there If not go and press "scan for hardware changes" Or Click "Acrion" and scan for hardwae changes - it may or should seek drivers Are you putting the drivers into system - system 32 - or into the samsung folderrs Cheers TOmmy |

Ummmmmmm.. I don't know what a "samsung folder" is, nor did I put any 'drivers' anywhere. I just doubleclicked on the Samsung executable, and it did whatever it did. The only thing it asked me was where it should go, and I told the Samsung software to install in: D:\apps\hardware\phone\samsung\drivers http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7378/1...f8fd590d_o.jpg I put all my Windows apps in D:\apps, so that shouldn't be a problem. |

But, after it rebooted and re-installed, I still have a yellow exclamation point next to the line which says: SAMSUNG Mobile USB Composite Device http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3680/1...bde6a37e_o.jpg I'm stuck. |

Something else is using what samsungs driver should be using I put all my Windows apps in D:\apps, so that shouldn't be a problem. Just for old times sake, try putting it into C Programmes and if it works that way, cut'n'paste back into D programme files Best I can offer Cheers Tommy |

But looking, there is nothing about Samsung in the Program Files folder anyway: http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2807/1...a79cdec5_o.jpg Code 10 ?? Something else is using what samsungs driver should be using Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm........ I don't know what to make of that observation. Just for old times sake, try putting it into C Programmes and if it works that way, cut'n'paste back into D programme files. I will try that, and reboot, and let you know what happens. But, it would be a dumb program if it were hard coded to only work in C:\Program Files in the first place. But I'll try. |

I solved the SM Bus Controller problem: http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7355/1...6f19ce72_o.jpg To solve the SM Bus Controller problem, I simply had to reinstall the Dell Intel Chipset Device Drivers. http://www.dell.com/support/troubles...401E0A55170412 But solving the SM Bus Controller problem didn't' solve the lack of MTP drivers for Windows.

Is this where you get YOUR Windows MTP drivers? |

Isn't it supposed to install a "Samsung Mobile MTP Device"???????? If you check the VID and PID of the Samsung with UVCView, perhaps you can figure out which "arbitrary" folder to use. Each arbitrary folder, has INF files which determine via VID and PID values, whether they should be installed or not. http://web.archive.org/web/200703071...VCView.x86.exe As for your question about "where does the Windows MTP driver come from". Of all the absurd things, it comes with advanced versions of Windows Media Player (WMP). I expect if an OS is modern enough, it should be a built-in class driver. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Media_Transfer_Protocol "Windows XP requires Windows Media Player 10 or higher; later Windows versions have built-in [MTP] support." According to this, a Galaxy S III is http://www.linux-usb.org/usb.ids 04e8 Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd 6860 GT-I9100 Phone [Galaxy S II], GT-I9300 Phone [Galaxy S III], GT-P7500 [Galaxy Tab 10.1] 6865 GT-I9300 Phone [Galaxy S III] (PTP mode) 6866 GT-I9300 Phone [Galaxy S III] (debugging mode) When I look in SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_v1.5.33.0.exe , the nearest match appears to be the 25_escape folder. The ssudmtp.inf file in particular in 25_escape, looks like it's deferring to the driver already in the Windows OS. ******* Include = wpdmtp.inf ; no sys copyfiles - the sys files are already in place ******* You would check your C: partition, and see if a wdpmtp.inf or related, already exists. As that's what the Samsung is calling for assistance. The only purpose of the Samsung ssudmtp.inf file, is to get Device Manager to display "SAMSUNG Mobile MTP Device". It then hands off control to wdpmtp.inf, so Microsoft can finish the job. HTH, Paul |
