[Q] How do I disable USB accessory and connect as media/camera instead? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I recently toyed around with USB Mobile Monitor without much luck on Windows 10 Technical Preview. I expected the USB setting to be defaulted back to either media or camera, but it's here to stay as accessory USB connection even after an uninstall. There doesn't seem to be an option for this in the dev options. How do I solve this? When connected as USB, both media/camera options are grayed out.

[Q] Always connect in USB mass storage mode instead of Kies?

Since i have Litening 1.0 and Kies doesnt work with it, i was wondering if there is any way to make the default action when i plug in the USB to go to USB mass storage mode or at least ask what to do like I9000 instead of automatically going straight to Kies connection mode, so i dont have to remember every time to go into settings, connectivity, usb and click 2 times there...
Activate usb debugging in settings> applications> development.
Sent from my GT-I9100
Thanks, i completely forgot about debugging mode ... Now if there was just a way to make it display the connection dialogue without having to pull down the notification bar that would completely satisfy my laziness .
Just to be sure, using USB debugging mode doesnt pose any additional risk right? I know i needed it to root my old I9000 but never used it besides that...
No, debugging can be left enabled without any issues. Occasionally root apps require it to be enabled. I only turn mine off to connect to kies and then I reenable it after.
kies dont seem to work for me so this is the only and best way to connect via usb! Always used this method with my nokia n900
Anyway, a select list when connecting something via USB would be nice, similar to HTC...
If you plug something into the USB-port, it asks what to do:
- Mass storage
- Sync (Kies)
- Tethering
- USB host mode
- ...
Anyone knows how to probably achieve this?
Would also be wonderfull something like a widget...
+1 for widget
+10 for list
My phone is always on DeBugging Mode. The only exemption is if I want to connect to KIES then I deselect the Debugging Mode and plug in the USB cable.
I have never found a problem with any program running when it was in Debugging Mode.
Tasker?
I have multiple profiles for when it's plugged in (either day or night or at work). I'm not sure if you can differentiate between AC charge and USB charge though.
I DO know that you can make your own Task in Tasker that acts as a widget to do most of the things mentioned here...
edit. there _is_ a Context item that allows a task to be set based on whether the power connection is recognized as a 'USB Power'...

Oppo RealMe1 Android Auto issue!

I own a 6/128GB variant.
I have been using for couple of weeks for now.
Value for money device.
I have issues connecting my phone to car for using Android Auto. When connected it only shows a blank screen. I have tried allowing all the permission for Android Auto and apps associated to it. Tried switching on USB debugging in dev option, switched on the USB OTG option too. Nothing helped.
If anyone knows how to get this solved kindly write a solution.
Cheers.
I am also facing the same issue. I have 6 GB / 128 GB phone, USB is working fine with laptop but it is not working with my car android auto (Sony AX-5000)

check this out or may be device update issue
Same problem
I too have same problem. Able to connect other phones to my car but not realme
How to fix
There's a workaround. Make sure Android auto is installed and setup. Connect with data cable to car unit. Go to Settings-> Other wireless connections. You'll see an option of USB tethering. Turn it on. It won't connect but as soon as the tethering fails Android auto starts up.
same issue with my realme 1. android auto icon does not appear while connecting it to Sony AX-5000. No connection gets established between realme 1 and AX-5000. USB teethering suggestion dont work.
Real me 1 Android auto issue
Real me 1 users: Android auto will work only on real me 1 after the Android pie update. After you have updated to the Android pie and colour os6. Connect your device to your car, you will have the blinking of choosing (charge/transfer files/transfer photos) on your phone, just leave it don't do anything about it.
Just go to (About phone) in your device. Then enable developer mode by tapping (version) 7 times. Then you can go to developer settings through (SETTINGS->ADDITIONAL SETTINGS then enable developer settings), then you have to on the (USB DEBUGGING) which will be available while you scroll down in developer settings. That's all.
The phone will get Android auto automatically. You can enjoy.:good:::highfive:
PS: After using Android auto don't forget to
off developer settings.

Problems connecting to PC

Hey guys. I'm sorry if this has already been posted, but I've searched everywhere on the internet and could not find this same problem. No troubleshooting tips helped either.
I own a Lenovo P2 and until recently I could connect to the PC via USB without any problems. Now, my PC doesn't recognize the phone at all. I mean that it doesn't even show up as faulty device or searching for drivers.
With no computer does my phone connect anymore.
The USB cable is not faulty either, nor the PC USB ports and the phone's jack, and the option for MTP is selected. Despite all this it only charges.
Here is the catchy part as the USB configuration setting seems bugged out for me. No matter which option I choose, MTP will show up as selected, yet the phone will only charge.

Wileyfox Swift 2X not visible as usb device

Hi all.
I'd like to install LineageOS on this Swift 2x. But it doesn't show up in the list of connected usb devices (lsusb command, Ubuntu).
The phone is able to charge the battery through the usb port.
The USB tethering option: disabled, grayed out.
Connected devices -> USB: disabled and says "disconnected".
Developer options -> USB: is set to MTP.
Seems like the phone doesn't sense the computer connected. There's something else I should enable? Or the usb-c to usb-a cable (the one bundled with the phone) is good only for charging?
Thanks.
Seems that rebooting the phone a couple times solved the problem.
I apologize for the unnecessary post.

How do you set Android Auto?? Please help

I can't connect my phone to my Peugeot 308 II Sw but I'm sure I'm missing something. I've tried several cables, including the original one from the charger.
As soon as I touch the Android Auto icon on my car, the phone asks about what to do with the USB connection and insists on charge only. When I enable debugging the same happens but a very quick white screen shows up on the phone and then quits. Car's screen shows an "Android Auto error" message.
What am I missing?
What would happen if you changed the usb configuration in developer options. Would that allow android auto to connect to your car?
I've tried the debugging mode only and no go. There are other options though, like "Always prompt when connecting to USB", that one is on and I assume it means asking what USB does? Is that the one you had in mind?
I do not touch the configuration of the usb. It is just automatically connects to the car. You have to to configure the bluetooth and thats it. Start bluetooth when you run android auto.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Bluetooth is connected to the car, it has all the permissions on... the car sees the phone as soon as I turn the key.
BTW, I know the car is compatible and other owners that I've talked to are able to get android auto running without a problem. That's what is odd about this.
