To connect a Verizon Samsung Galaxy SIII to VMWare Fusion on a Mac (though, should work on any Host OS giving you trouble) do this:
Take the code from here:
and instead use
Open the Virtual Machine Library in VMWare Fusion, right click on your Windows machine while holding the Option/Alt key, click Open Config File in Editor, and add the line above to the .vmx file. Click File>Save a Version, then completely close out of VMWare, open it back up, open your Windows machine, attach your GSIII under MTP protocol, and you're in.
I can only guarantee this will work on Verizon GSIII, for non Verizon, shoot me a PM and I will figure out the code for that.
Take the code from here:
Code:
usb.quirks.device0 = "0x4e8:0x681d skip-reset" # Mass Storage
usb.quirks.device1 = "0x4e8:0x68a9 skip-reset" # Media
usb.quirks.device2 = "0x4e8:0x6877 skip-reset" # Kies
usb.quirks.device3 = "0x4e8:0x681c skip-reset" # ?
Code:
usb.quirks.device0 = "0x04e8:0x6860 skip-reset"
