I have an S3 storage and I need to move a file using an original S5 USB cable. Each time I connect it, the system says USB device not recognized. Drivers aren't installing with Kies, but it shows up as a media device—help needed!

The device requires drivers similar to any other gadget. They should be installed via Windows Update automatically, though this may be turned off or unavailable. The phone itself only identifies it as a media source and doesn’t act as a camera. Neither method is ideal for data transfer when things go wrong. A typical USB storage solution would work best, letting Windows use its built-in drivers. Unfortunately, that’s not an option here. Unless you’re feeling adventurous… switch to USB diagnostic mode. This will let you inspect your phone’s files in Windows, though it’s not a secure setting. It exposes all data, including old photos and deleted items. Make sure to disable this feature once you’re done. To access the mode, enable developer settings by going to "About Phone" in settings, then tapping "Build version" repeatedly. This reveals hidden options like "USB Diagnostic Mode." Once enabled, connect your phone via USB and it should appear as a standard device. Your carrier might have disabled these features or restricted developer tools. If you’re using an older model, the process can be tricky—especially if you’re on a newer OS like Lollipop. Stay safe and enjoy your phone!

It wouldn't be practical to rely solely on an FTP server on your phone for transferring files over the internet.

I would say its type fault in Samsung Galaxy phones. My older S2 had this and I needed to unplug and replug multiple times before it got recognized. And after that it would disconnect randomly. Current S5 also does the same thing.
