Hello guys, I recently bought an Atrix 4G from UK. The problem is that when I connect it with USB cable with PC (Windows 7 32bit) the PC recognize that the phone is connected but nothing appears on the notification bar on the phone. First tried with original FW 2.2.2 orange, after that rooted, unlocked the bootloader and installed CM7 but it is the same thing with it. I installed the latest USB drivers using motorola driver installing program from the official site, tried with other cable but nothing. RSD lite recognize it if this will help.. Does anyone know how to fix this issue.

Question for you.... do you have an micro sd card in the atrix? That could be an issue. Also, you can look at your computer's usb settings to see if your phone can be forced into usb mode that way. Just giving some ideas.
Yes, I have SD card, tried without it but the same thing - no notification on the phone and nothing happen on the PC except the sound of connecting a USB device. How can I force it in USB mode?

Try looking in settings of the computer for USB drives.
That's when I start exploring a bit in that area when stuff doesn't connect to my laptop.

Didn't find this function. Anyway the point is that the computer recognizes the phone but the phone does not show anything in the notification bar.
I just solved the problem :
1 - Turn off the phone.
2 - Turn on while holding volume up (RSD protocol mode)
3 - Connect the phone with USB cable to the PC, wait for windows to install the drivers, and disconnect.
4 - Restart the phone, and before connecting to the PC type in the dial box #5.
5 - Connect it with the USB cable.
I saw this advice from other forum.
I know it sounds stupid but this worked for me. Thanks anyway for the separated time.
Thank you
your advice saved my life
Lost usb connection with my laptop and home pc 3 days ago
Tried everithing you know what I mean
Most advices are for babies in kindergarten:
- bad usb cable
- wrong usb port
- usb debugging
- drivers
BS!
#5 really works / you need actually dial #5 with your phone app and then quick connect cable
I had the same problem ... I had to send it to motorola for warranty and they changed my mainboard!

try the usb ports in the back of the pc with the "original usb cable for the atrix
also if your rooted download a teathering app called pda.net install it on your phone and pc it will provide proper drivers for the atrix
at&t atrix's had to do this when we were on 2.2 and it sure does work!
Thanks!
Thank you for this! Dialing #5 made the trick!
My Xperia P just won't connect with PC, it just behaves like its on wall charger when I connect the cable,
no notification about storage mount, not even a sign of phone connected to PC. Neither on Phone or PC.
No driver install on PC, no notifications about device connected. Not a single error notification on PC. Even cant find phone in device manager.
PC companion cant find the phone, even flashtool cant find the phone, I cant get into fastboot mode too (installed flashtool drivers).
Tried every driver, cable, usb hubs, other PC, Windows 8, 7... nothing.
USB Debug is ticked in phone, PC Companion install too (still didnt start), tried hard reset too.
Its same problem as here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1837977
Details about phone:
Xperia P
6.1.1B.1.54
Bootloader unlock possible but still cant get into fastboot so no way to do that.
Bought in Poland (T-Mobile PL branded, probably sim-locked?. But I'm using Slovak T-Mobile and it works)
Please help, I dont care about USB Storage now (I can get to it by Airdroid) but I want to root my phone and Im not able to do it beacause of this.
Try unticking "Enable USB Debugging" and then connect your phone to your PC. With PC companion installed your phone should normally be recognised by Windows.

Install XP drivers from Flashtool. Also install fastboot drivers from flashtool.
Here's the steps:
1.) Open Flashtool
2.) Open Fastbootmode in FLASHTOOL, (from the thunder icon)
3.) Connect your device in fastboot mode
THIS STEPS SHOULD BE DONE FAST
4.) After connecting your device, select Reboot into fastboot mode (via Fastboot) from the Fastboot Toolbox, (right side)
5.) Congrats, you are now in fastboot, flash any kernel you want with autoroots.

i had the same problem... when i try to connect it says no device detect. i was using go launcher but when i used the original xperia launcher and closed the go launcher.. the pc companion detected my phone.. not really sure how that worked.. but it did.. >____< it was hard to follow the technical solution in the internet.. so im glad my problem was simple as that.. just check if you had the original xperia settings.. and try to connect to pc.. hope it works for you too!

You should choose "Let me pick a list of device drivers from my computer" and find your phone driver that you installed before.

The port is where you plug the USB cable into. It's probably damaged.

Unfortunately the port is part of the main board and cannot be replaced
I've seen at least one forum member that reported to fix his port by pulling the contacts with a needle, though I would not recommend it at least untill you have confirmed this is in fact the problem, at service or lab/store.

My Phone is connected to pc.No driver installation what is the problem?
Hello,
I have an Xperia P and since yesterday I have been having the very same Problem!
I can connect the phone via USB with my computer but the only thing it would do is: CHARGE
no data connection via usb.
I tried everything i know, like rebooting, entering fast boot mode, installing Sony Companion, enabeling / disabeling usb-debugging, deleteing old junk-data to decrease the amount of elemtents on sd-card... but nothing happens. neither windows nor ubuntu-mint will recognize my phone except from charging.
has anyone of you found a fix for the problem?
i run: nemesis kernel v.6.3 and Honami MoonWalker HD V6 (but i think its not a problem of kernel / ROM because i've been using this combination for a while now and it always worked!)

What exactly do you mean?
Do you want to know how I installed it on the phone? Then you should look for some tutorials, there are plenty.
Or do you want to know if it is actually working? I can tell you, it is, don't know why you wanna get a video or screenshot, because its actually not really realated to the thread's topic

same thing happening with my Xperia S :crying::crying:
if u find any solution plz tell me
Any news about this problem? Im facing exactly the same problem.
The phone works, but no USB connection. I cant enter in fastboot, nor flashmode, or whatever.
Tried all trick described in XDA, (rubber band, full charge, full discharge, etc...)
Factory reset doesn't help too.
update:
I have been using the phone without usb Connection ability for a while now and transferred data files via wifi-app on my computer when I needed to.
Eventually the phone died yesterday, because it is not charing anymore ;(
First it started like this:
I had the charger plugged in and it recognized it, showing the flash icon within the battery icon. But nothing actually happened, in fact, the battery kept draining.
So i tried differend chargers and cables but nothing worked. I wasnt able to prevent the phone's battery from completely depleting. Now, the phone won't turn on anymore and when I plug in the charger, the red Status LED will turn on for about 5 minutes, then it turns off again and nothing happens. I can repeat that but i figure, the battery is not getting any energy from the charger
Does anyone know how to fix this, yet?
The phone is slightly over 2 years old...
Hello everybody,
I have a problem with my Samsung i5500. Every time i try to connect it to a PC it is not detected as a mass memory device and gos straight into charging mode just like i would connect the phone to the socket charger. The PC does not recognize the phone, it doesn't do anything, just like i never connected the phone through the USB port, but the phone is charging.
I tried to connect the phone on 3 different computers using 3 different micro-usb cables. On all 3 computers I installed the latest drivers for the i5500 and the same problem occurs every time.
Can anyone please help me with an advice. What should I do in order to get my phone connected and recognized by the PC?
In case you it helps you to know, I am using the stock 2.2 ROM and the phone is not rooted.
Thank you in advance.
i have EXACTLY the same problem, and it is not drivers problem. Any advice?
hey guys, This is the link to download for drivers.
http://d-h.st/iPk
If you use windows 8 or 8.1 then you will have to extract the file you download from the link above and then right click on the .exe file and go to 'properties', in that go to 'compatibility' and in that choose your operating system as "WINDOWS 7" and check the option below 'always run as administrator' and there you go. Double click on .exe file and follow steps. Install drivers. No need to restart the pc also. (if your phone also do not detect after installing these drivers only then restart).
Can you just try this out? I know it is maybe not driver problem but still you can try this.
I have an LG L7 II Dual P715, and I was in 4.4.2 before, now I downgraded to Jellybean so that I'll be able to root it [I GOT THE KDZ FILE OF THE JB FIRMWARE FOR MY DEVICE FROM THIS LINK http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=21 ]. When I connected my phone to my laptop running windows 7 32-bit without turning on the USB Debugging yet and keep it in MTP connection, my phone got recognized immediately by the laptop (because i already had the drivers installed even before), but whenever I turn on the USB Debugging, when i connect it to my laptop, it just charges and it doesn't automatically enter the USB Connection Type where in i supposedly have to choose whether to use MTP connection or LG Software connection etc. unless I manually go to that section in the settings of the phone.
I have downloaded the driver of my phone. I even downloaded a universal driver of LG yet I still get the problem.
so basically, the problem is I CAN'T CONNECT MY PHONE TO MY LAPTOP IF IT'S IN A USB DEBUGGING MODE. I opened the Device Manager and I can't seem to find any trace of my device when it is in USB debugging mode Except if It is TURNED OFF.
What do you think is the problem with this? Is it my LG phone or the computer who has the problem? When I was in kitkat, I never experienced such issue, but when I flashed it back to JB, I cant rid of this problem anymore, PLEASE HELP, I badly want to connect my phone to the laptop while the USB Debugging is turned on.

If all you need is to root your device then you don't need USB debugging. You just need to use copy Framaroot's apk to your device and install it, and that you can do in MTP mode as well.

Never had similar problems with the USB drivers nor needed LG's tools, so can't help you there.
