I have a Samsung Infuse SGH - I997 cell phone.  I have downloaded the software from Samsung with drivers and have installed it on my laptop running Windows 7 SP1.  When I connect the phone to the USB port it charges but Windows does not detect the phone to install the device driver.  I have tried other USB devices and the ports work for each on I tried except for the cell phone.  Is there something I can do so I can download pictures from my cell phone onto my laptop?

    Have you looked for a driver here?

    I have the same problem except with a Kyocera flip phone that apparently does not have a driver installed in the phone.

    Can anyone help? I have tried to install via control panel, add device, but it does not find any new devices. I'm trying to install via USB cable.

    Samsung Kies connects your mobile phone to your PC, making it easier for you to synchronize data between devices and find new apps

    Seems that this might need charging port repair. Here's UK based company that does charging port repairs on Samsung mobile phones.
