Enable usb debugging in developers options and reconnect to usb and you will see a little window appearing. Press yes in the window.

I think that isnt the problem since a lot of users dont even know about usb debugging and developer options. I just want it for music etc.

I have, since I was able to flash images through fastboot and before all this I could just get ROMs and music etc on the SD-card.

Does your phone boot normally? Can you turn on USB debugging?

yes it boot normally and i can turn USB Debugging and it still doesn't recognize with and without USB debugging mode.
When you select recovery from fastboot, that's when you get the "no command" error?

I do same kind of prob with my PC. The root of problem is mostly the USB cable itself. I've got the stock nXs⁴ cable yet after a year its out I think. When that happens try some many cable.
The prob might even occur due to MTP. If debugging is enable then ADB would recognize nXs⁴ as offline and no Portable media device would be visible in My PC. In that case try restarting PC!

USB 3.0 and MTP not working

Hi guys just got a Note 3 running on version 4.3 currently and my PC won't connect to the phone as a media storage device, I've done my searches and tried everything I could. One of the main reasons I enjoyed using my previous Note 2 and Galaxy S4 phones is the ease in which I can transfer files back and forth through my PC so I really need to fix this.
-"Connected as media device" won't even display on the notification tab in the phone to give me the Media Device (MTP) option
-phone is charging
-using the usb 3.0 cord, tried both usb 3.0 ports on my Lenovo Y570, updated the Samsung drivers
-tried connecting it through Kies3 and it won't recognize it as a supported device, even after reinstalling the drivers through Kies
-yes, USB debugging was enabled in developer mode
I'm out of ideas, any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

S4 doesnt get recognized by the Computer

Hey guys,
I read the other threads were people had problems but mine didn't get solved by that. I tried everything from re flashing the Rom/Gapps, taking out the Sim Card & Battery to put it back in, Restarting my phone, Using USB Debugging Mode, trying out different USB ports/cables, installing the Samsung USB Drivers/Kies 3 on my pc, etc.
But nothing I tried helped to solve this error. It started to appear recently but I didn't change anything. My Phone charges when I connect It to my PC but It doesn't show up as a device to transfer files to. Windows doesn't even detect that any device has been connected via USB... Any help is appreciated.
Try this:
dial *#0808# and select AP in USB Settings

Does it get detected when in download mode? If so, then it's either a driver on your pc or something on your phone.

Gonna try it out now, I wasn't at home. At least I know that it has nothing to do with my PC now because I tried it on a friends PC and it didn't get recognized either.
Edit: It doesn't get recognized in Download mode

If there even isn't a popup showing on your pc when connecting in download mode, then it's hardware.
Try to clean your usb port or replace the module.

Look, if it doesn't get detected while in download mode then it's:
- Not a software setting on your phone.
- Either you messed up the drivers (unlikely). Remove the drivers completely and it should detect your phone. But it doesn't according to you, so we can rule that out.
- Either you have faulty usb cables (unlikely). You tried multiple.
- Either you have faulty usb port on your pc (unlikely). You tried multiple.
That leaves hardware damage. That seems most likely to me.

Your right that makes sense.. so what do you suggest? I already cleaned the port on my phone. Its weird that it just stopped working from one second to another without me doing anything

The only thing it does when inplug it in is charges..
I recently flashed back to stock mm I was running trupure it was fine then it would connect and recognized by PC.
I have installed and installed adb driver many times.
My PC does recognize my other phone LG g3.

Reinstall ubs host driver (Not the cellphone one)
Use another cable.
Put your Phone in MTP mode in the options above when asking just charge or transfer pictures MTP or Mass Storage.

Tap on the "Charging mode" notification when your USB is connected and you'll get a pop-up that let's you select MTP mode.
Alternatively you can go to Device Manager and look for any error icons (think they're yellow triangles - been a while since I used a PC). Right click and uninstall all the offending ones, the disconnect and reconnect your device via USB.

In a lot of MM roms, you have to go in to developer options and select MTP under 'MTP configuration' in there. Even if it's selected already, tap it again and it should pop up asking what to do when device is connected on the pc. $5 says that does the trick. Easy but surprisingly tough one. One other problem I'm running into lately with the new windows 10 is that it has driver signing enabled by default and often rejects the driver you install or just doesn't use it even if it's installed. So if the driver is the problem (or more accurately windows 10 is refusing to acknowledge the installed driver), you might need to disable driver signing enforcement. Here's a link how to do that: http://www.howtogeek.com/167723/how...8.1-so-that-you-can-install-unsigned-drivers/

Try a different chord? Also get Usb C to Usb A adapter so you can plug in thumb drive. Comes in handy when you want to do a complete cleaning of your phone.

Suppose anythings possible I've had issues in the past with the phone not detecting. But I have the thumb drive to fall back on. The other thing you could try is downloading the fastboot package from XDA. You will get Google driver's maybe that would help.
