Can you use the Galaxy, with a USB connection running in the background, without having the USB locking screen with the big USB image on it ?
You could do this with my old Windows mobile no problem, am I doing something wrong ?
Not in the KIES mode
How then ?
Just connect in usb mode and it should work. It does for me anyway.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
Go into your USB settings and set it to Always Ask... then whe you connect the phone to PC, if you just want to charge it.... don't select Any options. just hit the back button on the bottom right
So I have set it up to ask, I have tried to select each one and the only one that connects me is the kies option, with the big USB images...why is it so weird, surely you put the usb in and it connects why all these options...sorry confused
yea what does "media player" mean in usb connection settings?

this maybe stupid question, but I am tired of this stupid activesync problem I had.
How to make a USB connection enabled?
I uploaded a screen captured for more details..
thanks guys
and the cradle is connected and is getting power ?
yup.. my device is connecting fine with this computer before.. but i accidentally click disconnect USB/SERIAL port when i try to connect my friend's xda on to my computer.
now my device is only charging and the usb is connected to computer but not to activesync...
I had this problem before, and what I did was uninstall activesync and install it again.. but all my applications that listed in add/remove programs would be lost, I dont want that..
I am sure there's a way to make it enabled without uninstalling it.
hi had my touch hd for ages now, and it connected to my pc with no problems, now all of a sudden its stopped working it charges but doesnt let me transfer files to it, i tried reset hard and soft
please help
go into connection setting- usb to pc setting and under the 1st option Activesync, UNTICK Enable faster data sync...
it worked for me
why don't you try to connect to your PC via Bluetooth? When that is working, chek another USB cable to see whether your cable is faulty. Might be a cause because it suddenly stopped working. Good luck
Dan - are you trying to connect with ActiveSync, or as a USB storage device?

I hope it's not this
but it's possible to break the data connection (wires ?)
but not the rest of a usb socket
I did it to an mp3 player
all I could do is charge it
if the connections are ok and it does't ask (active sync/disk/connection sharing)
you might have ticked the box that says don't ask
that can be set back again can't remember how
but there is a thread on it somewhere on xda
found it
start -> settings -> usb to pc ->
I do have exactly the same problem....tried EVERYTHING....no success....surfing the net saw many are experiencing the same problem...

You can flash from SD card. I have same problem with TyTN II, charging when turned off, no usb connection.

Something happened with my HD2. USB charging functionality works, but connectivity - not.
Computer shows message "USB device not recognized"
Tried on different comps, XP, Windows 7 - nothing. Soft reset, pulling battery, changing options on USB in Settings didn't help.
Any ideas?
You have ActiveSync (XP/2000) or Windows Mobile Center (Vista/7) installed?

Have you tried a different usb cable?! Anyone you know have a HD2 you can test it out on?! If something doesnt work on my HD2 I try it on my girls just to double check?! When you plug it in do you get a the option of choosing active sync or hard drive?!
Another thing it could be, and I need an answer to this myself, is that when you first plug the phone into the PC, the device presents the option of ActiveSync or Data Transfer, with an option of "Do not show this again". If someone selects Data Transfer, and clicks Do Not Show Again, how can this be reversed or undone? I have a user that cannot Explore through ActiveSync because he likely selected this option.

Jimbo, you can re-enable that in settings-connections-USB to PC, there a checkbox there labeled "ask me first about USB connection..."
DocAlex, did it connect properly in the past? If so, I'd start with toreone's suggestion and find a way to test with a different cable and/or PC.

Yes, installed. Also tried different cables, one of them was it's OEM cable.
Manipulated with USB setting on phone - didn't help.
Checked wet indicator - it's white.
Did nothing with - on some morning, after full night charging, connected to USB and got it. Bluetooth sync works on same computer...
Looks like USB controller died
Did you try connecting to a different computer?
Thanks Phunkeefunk!
Finally, after and hour on tech support call, T-Mobile agreed to replace it. Already got new, used SPB Backup, very easy transferred all from old one to new. USB obviously works on new.
So - some time USB controller can die ...
Hi
My problem is that when I connect my sm-n900v to my laptop no usb icon showing up in notification bar device only charge.
I removed the driver and install it again not working.
I disable usb debugging not working and enable it not working
anyone know how to fix this problem?
I'm having the same problem. This started only after lollipop update. Device charges, but laptop does not "see" usb connection. Nothing in system tray. Nothing in device manager. Current version Kies just installed, but doesn't see phone when connected. Restarted both laptop and device disconnected and connected.
SM-N900V Android 5.0
Windows 7
Don't have a clue how to fix this. Any ideas? Thanks!
Thought I'd post my update. While my original USB 3 data/charging cord seems to charge flawlessly & quickly when plugged into the correct 12v OE wall charging adaptors, there is apparently a problem with data transfer. I think the cord I'd OK, but its loose when inserted into the port on the device. If I hold it JUST so, it works fine. I suggest patient cord manipulation to determine if this might be the problem for others as well. Might be hardware repair time.

Hi
I found this solution and it's work now
With the device plugged in:
Dial ##366633#(##DMMODE#)
Disable DM Mode
Disable USB Debugging Mode (Menu> Settings> Developer Options)
If you don't see Developer Options, Enable them by going to Menu> Settings> About Device and Tap "Build Number" 7 times. This will enable Developer Options.
Allow Drivers to load completely. This can take up to 5 minutes.
Device should now appear in device manager as Samsung Mobile USB CDC Composite Device
Now..With the phone still plugged in, turn off and turn on (Restart the device )
Again allow the drivers to load.
you will see the usb icon showing up in your device..
:good::good:

i knew i wasnt crazy and i had a usb menu show up on connect...btw a temp fix to not showing up, download more shortcuts, open app click activities -> click settings -> USB computer connection(Settings$UsbSettingsActivity) and select MTP or USB 3.0. You will have to do this everytime you unplug,(or set a shortcut on homescreen to open setting panel)
I am wanting to transfer music and photographs from my laptop to my XiaoMi A1. I cannot follow the youtube explanation at all.
I get to the "Index of" and the list of what is on the phone but there appears to be a leap between that and the next page.
Is there a simple way to connect the phone and laptop? I am using Windows 7.
Appreciate any assistance the group may be able to provide this technical incompetent
With Win7-10, when you plug in the usb cable, there should be a notification. Just open the pull down menu, tap the notification and select the "Transfer files" option and then you're all set to transfer files. The default setting in the USB notification is charging (and changing this in the developer settings doesn't seem to do anything). If you're attaching the cable for the first time on the phone, windows will automatically download a driver.

Hi, thank you for the response. Much appreciated.
There was no notification when I plugged in the usb cable
Unfortunately the driver did not download - it tried - so am now wondering as to how to go about doing that. Is there a specific driver?
Yes, I tried the developer options on the USB debug in the developer setting and no, not much happened.
Ideas?

The usb port on the pc could be faulty. One port on my pc is like that and works only as a charge only port, data transfer pins do not work. Try a different port or another pc.
