When I connected my tab to the computer using usb cable, it popped up with MTP and the tab shows in the windows explorer.
But after I push the home button and quit the MTP mode, how can I bring MTP mode back without plug in/out the usb case? Is there any shortcut? Thanks.
How can I share files between tab and computer without using the usb cable?
My computer don't have bluetooth and I don't prefer wifi ad hoc p2p connect.
I feel a bit regret to buy the tab as not to have the sd card slot is really inconvenient. I cannot move the pic in the camera to the tab easily.

Get websharing app from market to copy files without using cables. Trial version lets you copy 1 file at a time. Paid version lets you copy multiple files at once.
Also, regretting about anything is just waste, search and you will find answers to all your questions in abundance, that has most and all the solutions.

Thanks. I will try it.
I searched for MTP and could not find an answer.
Just got another question: How can I reduce the volumn of the feedback "ding" when pressing the menu?

I don't have my tab with me. But you can take a look at the sound setting.

anyone got a shortcut to start mtp without taking cable out and in?
I can't get MTP back at all, I tried to do a factory reset and uninstall lord but nothing works.
Also tried using the "kies saver"from Samsung apps but it wouldn't work either.
Can someone please help me

You mean you are not able to see the tab in the computer after connecting it or the MTP screen is not displayed on the tab?
FYI :
After the latest update MTP screen is shown only when some file operations are going on. Not always when the it is connected to the computer as earlier.

Turn USB Debugging off. I have the Galaxy S 2 on Sprint and it has a terrible habit of turning it on by itself, which disables MTP mode. Not sure where in Honeycomb the setting is, but on my phone it is under settings - applications - development.
Uncheck that and problem solved I bet.

On the tab.
But when I want to update the tab I'll get a message that says "unable to convert to update mode".
and I can only transfer small images otherwise it shuts down (kies)

I bought a USB connecyion kit and use a small USB stick. I also use it for backing up data so that when I do a hard reset on my Tab I ca njust plug the USB stick in and restore all data using Titanium Backup.
Hey all,
My roommate recently bought a Galaxy Tablet 10.1 and it just now wont connect to the computer.
When the device is plugged into the computer (we tried both a mac and a pc with updated kies mini installed on both) and the tablet says USB is connected, but it doesn't show up on the pc.
Any ideas?
We had it connected earlier in the day, and know it won't work. I'm puzzled.
I've got an infuse, but i've never had anything like this happen before.
Try going into settings> applications> development and tick or un-tick usb debugging. Might have to try both settings plugging and unplugging from the computer to finally get it to come up. Give it a couple minutes between each to be sure its going to see it or not.
This has worked for me in the past when something changes and I don't know what. Also re-installing the drivers on the computer has helped before for some reason. I'm using Windows7 so YMMV.
Let us know what helps.

Are you stating it's not showing up as a storage drive in Windows when using USB, or are you stating KIES cannot see the tablet (or both)? If Kies, welcome to the club - you are far from alone. I know of no known solution (that topic has been beaten to death on all forums). Togling the USB dedub option may help with respect to Windows seeing it as a storage drive (try another USB port, too), but with respect to Kies, if you find a solution (that you can duplicate) please share. The only way I've ever been able to get Kies to work twice on the same computer was to reset the tablet back to factory defaults - at which point, I can connect VIA Kies one more time, then back to square one.
Good luck!

Kies see's the device, but wont connect. Windows doesn't see if as a USB device.
We tried toggling the USB Debugging switch to no avail.
On my infuse when i plug it into my laptop i have to go to the notification window, click on the usb connected notification, and then select mass storage mode.
We get the notification on the tab, but when i click on it nothing happens...

nothing is supposed to happen. it uses MTP not mass storage. On your laptop, go to "Computer"...it should be there under a portable media device.
if that doesn't work....make sure USB debugging is UNCHECKED...it will NOT work with it checked.
If all that doesn't work..try another USB port
I believe the issue is on a windows machine it usually pops up a box where you can select what you want to do. Such as open folder to view files, etc... and this isn't happening. Probably wrong in my thinking but who knows.

Ezcats Re: Nothing should happen.
This is not entirely accurate. My experience parallels Benzoman's statement. Each and everytime I connect my 10.1 4G (GT-7500D), Windows does indeed open a box asking what I'd like to do with it. It does show up under Computer as a device, and I can readily access it to copy files (however, Kies won't connect... Kies recognized that fact that I plugged it in, and attempts to connect, but never does - again, unless I reset it to factory in which case Kies not only finds it, but will connect to it - once).

Hi,
Need help. I used to be able to transfer file via my windows or mac, plug in the usb cable, got the usb debug notification shows up on my phone, pull down the notification, I can choose MTP or Mass Storage.
Then one day, it just decided not to work anymore, I can no longer see those usb debug option. Everytime I plug in my USB cable. I have also tried different sort of usb cable even the original motorola usb cable, but nothing works.
Weird thing is when I plug the phone, nothing happened, then I unplug and plug it back, it will start charging, but still no usb debug options. I also cannot hear any sounds in windows when I plug in the usb.
Please, any idea, tips or does anyone ever experienced this before and know what's the solution?
Thanks much!

I was using stock, and I even did a factory reset just to make sure, but it is still not working

I think I got the latest motorola drivers from here https://motorola-global-portal.cust...can-i-download-the-usb-drivers-for-my-device?
Tried usb2.0 still nothing. I remember last time when I plug in my razr, motocast wil automatically pop up, but this time, nothing
Update, it seems to get detected when I plug it in on PC that is running XP. This is getting weirder...
The Stock ICS Final i'm running works flawlessly with the usb connection, but various custom ROM's i've tried can't mount either Internal SD or External SD. Turning off USB debugging mounts the internal memory on some ROM's, but only with read rights.
There are quite a few people with this problem, and despite searching everywhere i haven't found an proper answer as to why this happens.
agree.. i saw a lot of people having the same issue but most solved it by using moto original cable but doesn't work for me sadly.
is there a log in the system itself? something like a logcat that i can take a look?

weird thing happened again, but this time it's a good thing. Out of nowhere, now it decided to work again even when I'm not using the original cable. this is just getting weirder and weirder. Anyway thanks everyone for the help

Sup my XDA'erzz... Hey so real quick is anyone experiencing issues with Android File Transfer and a Mac? I'm specifically using a Macbook Pro i& quad-core with a SSD and running OS X 10.9 Mavericks... I never had these issues with my Verizon OG HTC One 32GB... But since picking up a Verizon HTC One Max 32GB Android File Transfer refuses to work and for the life of me I can't figure out why.. If I just plug it in nothing happens unless I manually launch AFT and then I receive a message that says please connect your android device with a usb cable. If I plug it in and restart the phone it picks it up but then says can not connect to device... It's extremely annoying because I'm working on some ROMs for it and I have to constantly ADB push everything....... Not that big of deal but I'd still like to be able to mount my storage where everything is visible and can add/remove as I please.... Any suggestions would be great, thanks guys!!
Try using a different cable. Sometimes its a simple solution thats overlooked.

Reinstall drivers, not a mac user so idk if you need the fastboot or adb files from sdk. But if you do, reinstall those exe files

Did you look at what the usb phone setting is on. I know there are extra ones like modem or something or other that could prevent transfer.
I am having similar issues, the mtp file transfer mode seems to borked. I can get files from phone but not send em. I've been mounting my external sd as drive then moving the files using root explorer.
Of course.. It always shows that MTP mode is enabled but does nothing when you tap it, and also shows usb is connected on the phone but when taping that it brings up only options for internet passthrough and sharing etc...

Right. Internet passthrough and others. Dont some of those stop file transfer when active.

Could be the USB 3.0 intermittent issue. Try a powered hub that is USB 2.0 as if your notebook is new enough most likely the USB ports are all 3.0.
Just saying.
Hey. Just want to get some music files on my phone. This HiSuite business sucks.
Can some one help or redirect me. Please.
Best solution: scrap Windows 10
Second-best solution: use WiFi File Explorer (I personally use the paid Pro version)
Third-best solution: use AirDroid
Once you've done a few file transfers using WiFi, you'll wonder why you ever bothered with a cable in the first place.

If you have no use for HiSuite, ditch it, it's more of a pain than it's worth.
Once you've ditched HiSuite, you will be able to drag and drop files to your phone without issue.

How do I just ditch it? When I connect my device to my computer it doesn't actually come up, instead I get this Hi-Suite cd-rom installer.
I've developer mode and USB debugging on.

Try turning off usb debug, and when your phon asks charging or file management, choose file management (or something like that).
Airdroid is a piece of crap now compared to Airmore. I've been using airdroid for few years, but when you have to transfer large files, it always stop before the end. Airmore is way more reliable than airdroid.
To ditch Hisuite, juste uninstall it from your computer, and when you plug your phone you have a notification : click on it and change from "charging only" to "MTP"

MTP is set up but HiSuite autoloader pops up on my PC.
I'm going to just use ADB for file transfers.

I just use adb, it's way faster than using Windows Explorer.
The OP probably has solved his/her issue already, but what i did with my Huawei GR5 is uninstall Hi-Suite ( with CC cleaner ) , plug the phone in via usb cable , then ignore what pops up on the laptop or cancel it , goto the phone and scroll down from the top to get the notifications , find the USB option which should be on charge only ( nothing highlighted ) and click on the 'Files' option under the USB icon . Then a represntation of my phones storage pops up and let me modify any files on my phone ie add music or videos . hope this may help some peoples having issues in the future .
