Whenever I plug in my S4, it seems fine. Drivers are installed correctly since I rooted fine and that also means the USB is fine.
The problem arises when I try to copy any file to my phone. It plugs in, allows me to switch it between Camera (PTP) and Media Device (MTP). I have tried turning USB Debugging on and off when transferring files and on both Camera and Media Device.
When I copy a device into any folder or the main card or phone directory, it starts copying, the green bar stops and then after a second the following message comes up:
"This device has either stopped responding or has been disconnected."
It allows me to Stop copying or Skip this file... which is the only file.
Any ideas on what is causing this and what I could do to try and fix it?
Use a different cable or usb port. Something is causing the phone to stop communicating with the computer. Also, make sure you don't have any power saving features enabled that may be turning of power to the usb port in Windows.
I've tried that and it still has the same issue.
Just unrooted and performed a factory reset. My phone is totally stock and doesn't allow me to copy any files onto it.
Does anyone have any idea?
[SOLVED]
Solved this by taking out my SD card, restarting my phone, putting the SD card back in and formatting it.
You can format by going into Settings > More > Storage > (Scroll to bottom) Format SD Card
That's right, it was not easy to find... Thanks!

Effectively, you have to turn off the ENERGIE ECO on your Tablet.
another way to see that the SDCARD is not responding, is to browse inside the Folders. They seems to be empty.

i was getting the same problem,so i uninstalled the driver and then connected the mobile .
secondly i also have installed wondershare mogile go on my mobile and pc , so when i connected my mobile to pc after uninstalling the driver the mobile go pop up came up for usb installation and it asked for installing the usb driver for mobile go ,it asked me to swithonn the usb debugging ,and it installed the driver then it just worked fine .
may be it was a mobile go problem (any software) or Driver Problem but it helped so no need to format,reset or remove your card . just try this and tell wat helped.thank you.
This is a Driver Problem.
All I had to do was plug the usb cable into the usb port that i installed the device to. My PC won't read the phone right from any other USB port. I hope this helps
Im not sure if this thread is too old or not, just wanted to give my imput on the matter, so I ran into this issue just today but i had never had it before, turns out it was the file, I did everything I could think of : played around again with the USB port selective suspend feature and it wasnt that, plugged into other USP ports, want that, untill I tried copying something else and BINGO, the file got copied, so I tried with a folder full of different files like word, excell APK files etc...and they all went through fine, so next i tried a lange file a movie and it went though fine. the file in question was a nighlyROM apparently it was corrupt, or didnt download properly. So my suggestion is to check if you can copy or transfer other files.:good:
it didn't work for me
you have to fix permissions
it happened to me on my gt-n7100 (Galaxy Note II ) with android 4.4.2, you have to install TWRP (Team Win Recovery Project see how then reboot into recovery select ''advanced'' hen ''Fix Permissions'' that worked for me
you can use chmod to fix this it works too

This did it for me. I already had TWRP installed and after quickly doing this I was able to copy to/from my SD card. It also fixed the problems I was having copying/moving things from internal storage to the SD card using ES.
FYI, It also caused XPosed to break until I rebooted again.
THANKS SO MUCH!
Doing this now, thanks so much! Wonder why that happens.
Didn't work unfortunately. Other files seem to be moving over just fine. All except this 1.6GB file (checked space, that's not the issue), where I cannot send either to Internal or SD Card. Maybe it's a corrupt file?

Yeah! Exactly! I was trying to copy an unfinished movie that was still downloading in torrent. It was stuck at 98.8% and it was playing fine in my computer. Only this file was not copying in my phone. and anyways i couldn't get it to my phone because it never downloaded 100% due to lack of peers, and i could copy other files. This means MTP mode does not allow to copy corrupt or half files and there is no mass transfer mode now a days...

I was able to copy the unfinished file by mounting External SD in TWRP btw....

I've changed the file type which was a (.zip) to a (.mp3) and transferred the file. It worked.

This is the answer to this thread!
Guys this is dumb but instead of moving the file that wasn't working onto my SD card, I just moved it to my phone and it worked the first time.
Another fix - go to usb options, set to use as USB 3.0 device
Since this is the first thread that seems to come up when I googled the issue, I'll post the fix here...
though I'm on a Galaxy S5, not the S4. I'm guessing it's the same deal.
When I plugged in with USB and tried to copy a 1.2 gig file, it gave me the error message, though many large files had worked in the past.
I tried a reboot, pulling the SD card, and making sure my USB hubs didn't have the "let windows shut this off to save power" option checked.
So I tried pressing the "Connected as a media device via USB" notification when I slide the notification bar down. There are 3 options, MTP, PTP, or USB 3.0.
I changed to USB 3.0 and the file copied fine, and much faster too, about 1.5 or 2 minutes for 1.2 gigs.
This actually works.... - Raj
Hello,
since i install CM11-M4 (before i have original Rom from LG installed) the USB to my Win7 PC lost while i copy .mp3 files onto the LG-G2 after 5-10 files. After disconnect and reconnect the USB connection i can copy again 5 to 10 files and then the connection lost / freeze again. Windows "says" it is not able to copy the file and abort.
The Problem also happens as .jpg files. But what i observe is, that the connection is only lost, if i transfered files are bigger then ~4MB. If i use ~2MB files the problem not occure
In USB setting of the LG the "MTB" is enabled,
Is this a know problem and is therfore a solution ?
Thx for help !
Best regards

Hi,
I make on more observation.
If i copy the files one by one, then i can copy infinite files. So thats hard, if you want to copy a few albums to the phone . But if i try to copy more then 10 files in one procedure, then the USB connection hangs.
The same probleme occures on a second PC with Windows 8.
regards
Roadrunner
I have the same issue here, I don't know how to fix it, I'm running last cm11, from 0324
win7 or win8.1, same issue
Try putting all your music in one folder and copying them like that. If that doesnt work then upgrade your drivers
I am not rooted. I can access my phone through Windows 10. But I cannot see all my folders. The 2 that I am having problems with are my Camera and Music folders. Some of the files are there. When I use ES File Explorer I can see and access them fine. Right now I cannot pull off any of the photos or videos I take. This all happend after upgrading to 6.0.1. I have tried 2 different cables and 2 different computers with the same results. I have made sure that USB Debugging is enabled. I also made sure that I had PTP and MTP enabled. Also upgraded to the latest 6P drivers for Windows 10. Any ideas?
I'm having this issue on 6.0. I'm thinking it was a Windows update that caused the problem rather than a Google one. Yes, I've got good drivers, stock cable, MTP. Tried on Win7/10, USB 2.0 and 3.0 The Music/Photo files/Folders are on the device, but unable to be seen via PC Explorer. If I try and copy an existing music subfolder from PC to the 6P's /Music folder, I get an error, but I can copy a folder to the 6p if it's not already there.

Same on Nexus 6P, on 6.0.1 (but not on 6.0). I'm trying to copy some photos to my PC (Windows 10) and my PC sees the DCIM folder but none of the files inside of it. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers through Nexus root toolkit but still no luck I rebooted both the phone and my PC, no luck. It does let me put files into the DCIM folder and it can see them after disconnecting and reconnecting. I also tried MTP, PTP and USB debugging and none worked. I guess I'll wait for the next Android update and keep using pushbullet.
I'm having a similar issue except not on 6.0.1. Can't view photos I've taken last Sunday but all my November photos are showing via MTP. My moto x had this same issue where recent photos wouldn't show. My PC is running Ubuntu, not Windows.
I just performed a factory reset. Windows 10 now sees both folders. Hopefully they will roll out a fix soon.
All I did was change USB from charging to File Transfer and all my folders are showing in Windows 10, fully updated and my 6p on 6.0.1, just flashed it
This solution worked for me. Clean cache and data files for the external storage app and media storage app. After rebooting, the files will be rebuilt (may take a couple of minutes) and then you will see your files again. I did it and the 1st to show up was my music folder then all of the other folders. At first, I had no folders (kind of freaked me out) but they started to show up one by one. Good luck.

By doing this will you lose any of your files?
I didn't.
The 'Clean cache and data files for the external storage app and media storage app' solution worked for me on my Zenphone 2. Files didn't appeared right after reboot, took a couple minutes and they gradually showed up. Didn't lose anything.
Many thx!
Somehow digging up this "old" thread.
Tried above "Media Storage" and "External Storage" system apps data/cache wiping solution, ended up seeing even less folders/files on PC !
Real solution given today by @AzraelsKiss :
Reboot under recovery (TWRP for me, I guess other recoveries would just work the same), plug your phone into PC, all the phone's folders/files will be visible using PC file explorer just as it's an external HD !
