While connecting nokia N95 8GB chinese phone to pc, its USB does not recognize by window and showing message that USB has malfunction, window does not recognize

Now, I will inform you this first. these days, there are very many fake Nokia phones on market from the chinese. you should first confirm this because such phones, donot connect to computer via the original Nokia pc suite. and secondary, they do not use the same drivers that are installed during the installation of the pc suite. confirm that you have original 8GB N95. one way is to check the memory. chinese 8gb only carries the label (8gb) but doesn't have that hard disk inside! you may find just a memory card of may be 1gb or less. But if it is original, check the cable and clean the phone interface, also try to use a different usb port.

however, for such phone is chinese, you have to choose to use it in memory card mode. on connecting it to pc, it should ask you the mode to use it in. but if it doesn't, go to its functions, connections and set its usb to be in memory card mode on connection to pc. that way, you will avoid being asked for drivers.
hope this helps. Regards

Hello

Try connecting to another usb port, directly on the computer, also check that the cable is plugged into the phone properly.
if either connector is broken it wont get recognized.
try atleast 5 times, reconnect the cable, try other ports etc, turn off the phone, turn it back on, restart your computer.

Try with another computer, if the problem persists on all computers and no matter what you do, then you have either a faulty phone, broken connector or in very rare cases broken cable.
if you replace the cable and the problem remains then its either faulty phone or broken connector on the phone.

contact your seller for warranty replacement.

As this is a CHINESE phone, NOKLA. Not NOKIA.
NOKIA will not repair this phone.
