Hello,
Anyone had any issues with their Note 20 not being able to transfer files to PC via USB MTP? I'm on the current June 2021 T-Mobile update and I've tried different cables and PCs/Chromebooks and I get charging but no PC of mine will recognize my phone as a USB MTP device. I've cleared cache and data in the USBSettings app and also enabled debugging mode to set the default usb behavior to 'transferring files' with no luck.
Thank you for any assistance you can provide.
To update, Dex mode is working fine with a DELL USB-C dock. So far, only file transfer/MTP is my problem child.

I am having a problem plugging my Note2 into multiple PCs - USB2 and USB3 ports both tried, multiple pcs and laptops tried.
All running Windows 7 (Pro or Enterprise). The N2 is bone stock, no root yet.
It makes the sound like it sees the USB, but fails installing all of the drivers, and never brings up the window to explore the SD contents.
I have tried multiple drivers - the S3 driver that some said would be no issue does not work. Different carrier versions do not work.
Last I checked, there was no verizon version driver available.
Here is my process.
I plug it in.
It says Connected as Installer
I pull the window down, choose MTP.
It tries to install different drivers
Never completes in Windows, says failed.
I have tried with debugging checked and without.
I have tried aftermarket cables (namebrand and off-brand) as well as OEM cables from the S2, S3 and Note2.
I've removed hidden USB devices and plugged it into multiple different USB ports to try and get it to work.
Any ideas guys? Are you guys plugging your Note 2's in and are able to browse the internal storage no prob through windows ? If so, how?
nothing?
Simmilar USB connecting issues
My Note 2 does connect as a MTP media device with "directories" Card & Phone, via win7
But I want to connect the sd card as a standard usb mappable drive just like every other phone I ever had.
It seem Android used to allow this but now may not. Or I haven't found the magic setting.
I had a similar issue after I flashed the rooted image, I had to disable USB debugging in developer options, restart the phone and laptop to get it to connect as MTP
Hello,
As you can see in the title I have a problem with my samsung galaxy s2. Until 2 days ago, everything was working fine. My phone was connected to pc via USB cable. As I was working as it was poping up with the autoplay.
My brother did walk on the room and "took it in his legs"(if you know what i mean).
Problem:
Now the phone is only charging at PC via usb. I am not able to do it to connect via usb storage or any other way. I did buy an usb cable but in vain.
What i have tried:
-buy a new usb cable
-reinstall usb drivers from xda/samsung/google/kies/
-clean the usb
-clean the usb from phone
-#7248... method
-tryied to connect on virtual machine with windows 7(hoping for autoinstall autoplay)
-update windows media player
-debug onn, debugg off
I am using Win XP sp3. Also after unistall and reinstall the drivers i get the message with usb not reconized and windows asks me to search the drivers for Multimedia controller and multimedia video controller.
Note:
Multimedia controller and multimedia video controller are asked by Windows only after I connect phone to pc when reinstalling usb drivers.

Replace USB board/port (but you need to get the correct part - search for similar threads to get the info you need; this has been discussed here a lot this year).
What version of Android are you running?
If it's 4.22 or 4.3 then go to Settings/Storage. click 'menu' and change USB settings on the phone from MTP to USB/Camera/PTP
Then it should show up as an external usb device.
XP is bad at recognising MTP (media device) so just set it to register as a Camera or usb storage in settings.
I am not using android 4.22 or 4.3. I am using android 4.1.2 and i do not have that option.
Until i will get another comments i will order a new USB board.
Hi everyone,
I often transfer files between my Samsung S7 Edge and my Windows PC through USB cable. However, after (making the mistake of) letting it upgrade to Oreo (v8.0), this is no longer possible: connecting the phone via USB to my laptop only shows charging information in the swipe-down top menu, and I no longer get the prompt asking whether I want to allow access to the phone's contents. Consequently, the phone's internal&SD memory no longer shows up under Windows Explorer.
I've been searching for a fix/workaround for hours (thanks Google for this quality time!). Some of the things I've tried that didn't work:
- enable/disable USB debugging mode under developer options
- change "USB configuration" (under Developer Options) to "MTP" and to all other options there
- use a different USB cable and USB port on the laptop
- search for apps on the Play Store that can help with this (didn't find any that actually do the job)
Connecting Android phones to Windows laptops to access their internal memory through USB cable has (bemusingly!) been a problem with this ****ty OS as long as I can remember, so it doesn't surprise me that users are having to spend even more time now to get it to work again.
Any suggestions much appreciated!

Thanks - I tried that, but I still don't see the phone's memory as a USB drive, nor any permission prompt on the phone once I connect it.

Before I do that, I should note that, when I tried on a different Win 10 PC, I get the USB drive back no problem, so the problem is Windows/PC-related, it seems?!
Turns out that, when using another USB cable, the phone is once again seen as a USB drive. I didn't think the cable could make a difference! Hope it helps others
Note 4 Not Recognized by Two PCs
Hello Folks,
I have a Note 4 that I plan to install TWRP then a custom ROM on. Both Windows 10 & Linux Mint 20 do not recognize the phone. I enabled developers options, then enabled USB debugging. I first noticed this when I tried to copy the TWRP.tar file via Odin. The device doesn't show up.
This is allegedly a brand new phone.
There is no popup dialog box on the device when I plug it into either computer. The battery icon up in the tray of the device does have a charging sign, yet no option for file transfer.
However, When I connect a different Note 4 to either computer, it registers fine. In Thunar File Manager on the Linux PC there is a connection icon for the other Note 4 that says, Samsung Galaxy. Also, on that device itself there's a dialog box that pops up & asks for a file transfer. So this other device fine.
So, it seems both computers are OK. The problem is with the new phone. I've tried different USB cables & get the same issue. I've enabled & disabled the developer options & USB debugging & rebooted the device, & same thing. I've also tried a factory reset, that doesn't fix it.
When I search the internet for this issue the only things I've found are reports on swapping USB cables & making sure that USB Debugging is enabled.
I read this post about the same issue. So this might be the problem. Yet, I thought I'd post this anyway in case others have some ideas.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks
Hello! I have a (12+256) Motorola Edge+ 2020 in Pakistan. I bought it last September. Everything works great, except that it won't connect to my computer. I have tried changing the default USB connection to File Transfer but it does nothing. The normal "Connected Devices > USB preferences" window is inactive and only accessible by search which doesn't do anything as well. I have tried using Moto tools to update computer drivers and the "Device Help" to access files. The Device Help WiFi route works fine but won't connect through USB. Changed cables, tried on different computers.
