I bought a Galaxy S II GT-I9100G two weeks back from Malaysia and it was running on Android ver. 2.3.5. But three days back I saw a 2.3.6 update available and updated my phone using the update option available in the phone. But now when I connect phone to PC via USB it shows unknown device and Windows cant find the driver suitable for it. And so I can't transfer files to or from my PC. Could anyone please help me out here?
My PC is running on Win7 x64.
Worked for me:
Unplug the USB cable
On the cell phone, dial the following number: *#7284# Once the last # is hit, the PhoneUtil application is launched. Choose USB -> Modem and then USB -> PDA mode. The good mode should be PDA. Even if the mode is PDA, switch to Modem and then back to PDA.
Plug the USB cable.

Try installing Kies (check the "Software" subtab under "Downloads"). It should install the drivers automatically but if not it has a menu option to install them.
Do a Factory Reset through Privacy menu of Settings. It will solve your problems
On your phone got one software call "Kies" try to using wifi to connect to the computer and the phone where in the computer you key in the IP address shown on your S2 and after that the driver will automatic installed its work fine for me after i use KIES to connect to the computer and again the computer USB can recognized my phone =)
"Just make sure you use a USB port on the back of your computer. Front ones can be less than perfect as there is cables, noise etc." This fixed my USB connectivity and transfer problems.
