Can't connect Mi A1 to pc - Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers

Hey guys !
For a year now, I haven't been able to connect my Mi A1 to my pc. I've tried everything from connecting on another pc, changing cable, factory reset, developper settings, nothing worked so far
I'm starting to lose hope, thanks for the help !

At least, is PC identifying that "something" is trying to be connected?
If yes, then is phone side. Remember you've to change device's connection notification toast, once PC identified a device. Enter there and in its settings change from "charging" to "file transfer".

I've the same issue. Every pc does'nt identify nothing when i connect the phone. In USB settings menu, i can't select any option (Ffile transfer, tethering, MIDI....).

I had the same issue over a year ago, Xiaomi service center was the only solution. There is nothing you can do

I know this is a silly thought... but have you downloaded and installed the Mi A1 drivers required on all computers you tested it on?

"Unknown Device"

I'm experiencing a weird problem with an O2 Atom Pure device.. Some weeks ago the device started acting weird: sound suddenly not working anymore.. So, we handed it in at the service center and just a few days back we received the handphone, all clean and working again..
So, back home, we connect the device to the PC to do a sync, and all we get is "USB Device Not Recognized". When checking the Device Manager, the USB device will show as "Unknown Device".. I've tried reinstalling ActiveSync, do a hard reset of the device, soft reset of the device, removing the "Unknown Device", rebooting and then trying again.. All without it doing any good..
Does anyone have any thoughts left? I'm lost.. I thought Atom didnt need any device drivers.. Well, my personal one at least doesnt Thanks in advance!
Ps: other devices are sync'ing fine..
Nobody any idea or suggestions?

make sure you're connected directly to USB and not via a hub, check for latest USB drivers, check your Antivirus is not blocking, download latest version activesync (4.5), check that the com port is available on PC.

Phone not detected by PC in adb/fastboot mode

Hi, I have strange problem with my OP2. Since some time when I connect my OP2 to PC it's only connected in charging mode. I've tried different methods to solve it: tried different cables, tried different computer, event wiped data & cache but nothing seems to work. It seems that it might have something with OOS 3.1 or eventually there is some hardware issue with my phone. Currently I'm on stock OOS 3.1 without root and on stock recovery. Is there any way to root my phone without possibility to connect it to PC in ADB/Fastboot mode? Or what else can I try to make phone to connect to PC in different mode than charging?

Connect your device in fastboot mode to your pc and go to device manager in your pc you will see a device listed as Kedacom USB device. Uninstall and delete the driver. Remove your device and connect it again.

No I haven't found anything new. After update to 3.5.5 still same situation. I think this is some kind of hardware malfunction. Have you ever used charging cable other than shipped with phone? I think maybe using other cable damaged something with usb port in phone...
My phone is Xiaomi. My phone recently have been infected by viruses that destroyed some important apps like: Play Store, Google Play Services and etc. I turned it off and then, wiped all data of it. The first configuration is actually broken in the step "Connect in the MI Account", so i tried use fastboot to activate USB Debug and define home as the default and press home button through ADB. But in the first step... My computer not found it.
My Xiaomi is Redmi-2014819. I need a answer most fast possible.
Lg G6 with the same issues. Fast charge went crazy and think this has blown something inside. Only normal charging works.
No ADB, fastboot, download mode. Can't even connect to laptop or Mac to transfer files.
Had charger replaced but it's the phone I think.
Gonna replace charge port but don't think this will fix issue.
Anyone had any luck?

help! P8 lite doesn't connect to the PC

Hi, i'm a smartwatch user, i'm from italy, so excuse me if my english isn't perfect. I' an ALE-L21 smartphone, i was going to root it, i read anything about that one year ago, my warranty ended in december.
I reset my phone about 3 mounths ago, but i never tried to connect him to the PC via USB after the reset. This morning i unlocked the developer's options and i activated the USB DEBUGGING. I downloaded the hisuite program, but i can't connect the phone to the PC. I activated the setting in "security>PC Suite" (it was about the use of HDB), but the problem is that every time iconncet the PC to the P8 lite, it only charge the battery. I think the problem isn't the PC, because when (on the P8) i go in "developer settings>networks>select USB configuration", the option "only charge" is selected, and i can't modify it. when i disconnect the phone, i can change it in "MTP (multimedia transfer protocol)", but if i connect the Phone to the PC again, the setting "select USB configuration" returnes on only "charge" again! and i don't want to root the phone now, but at least to connect it to the pc tu have a backup of important files......
Thank you and excuse me for the english.....

USB device not recognized

Hi XDA members. I need your assistance.
My phone has been acting up lately. Plugged in to my laptop using the type C cable that came together with the phone and the message USB device not recognized pop-ed up. Tried re-updating the drivers @ Device Manager, but still, the problem persist. Tried changing laptop and still, the problem persist!
Before this, I can easily transfer my stuffs from my lappy to my phone and vice versa. But now, even the status bar menu option to choose "Charging/Transfer file/etc" isn't appearing..
@ Device Manager, under the Universal Serial Bus controllers tab, it's written there "Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed) .
My mi a1 is rooted and is on Jan update btw. Wanted to unroot & flash stock fastboot image to update to Feb update, but if I can't even connect to the pic, how am I suppose to use the MiFlash Tool?
Please help.. Feeling so restless now :crying:
Edit : Tried every method I've read in the internet, from updating drivers, unplugging power source, uninstall and re-install drivers. The only thing that I have not tried is changing cable. If it works after using a new cable, then please kindly ignore this thread/remove it please moderator. At the same time, wondering if root process has got anything to do with this..
Edit : Found the issue. It is the cable all along! Changed to a new cable and everything works fine.
Just had the exact same issue here, found your post, changed cables and everything is fine again. Thanks
Same issue with Mi A1
Hi,
I'm facing the same issue. My Mi A1 is not recognied on laptop running Windows 7 64-bit. Earlier it used to work without any problem.
My Mi A1 is running on Android 9 with Sept 2019 updates and it is not rooted.
I've tried changing cable and with developer options on and off. Nothing working.
Any suggestions to overcome this issue.
Best,
1. it happens when you had faulty cable.
2. your phone's usb port is faulty
first replace your cable if problem persist clean your phone's usb port and if both not worked repalce your phone's usb charging port
I'm happy that you already solved the issue, but for future reference:
1) If it has already worked on that PC, probably the cable is not a data cable but a charge-only cable (~faulty USB cable, but not really)
2) If it has never worked it's possibile that is a driver problem, use this tool to install ADB, Fastboot and Drivers: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979
3) Unlikely, but possible, you entered the network Diagnostic Mode. Just turn off debug/restart the phone.
i have the same issue. I also tested on other PCs. I have laptop with w7 x64, it also doesn't work on w10 x64 too. When i connect A1 to pc, nothing happens in the device manager. The phone is just charging. I have debugging as on and default configuration usb as transfer files. Version os - 10.0.0.12 with unlocked bootloader and root.
The cable is good because in the previous month it worked on it. Please help me with this.
I have same problem. My phone memory is full and I have to transfer files to free it up. Some one please help. I wonder if this has to do with the security update done recently.
same problem here, recognizes nothing, only the load works...

Check your socket - usbc, I had a damaged socket, I gave it back for warranty and changed it. I was just charging the battery.

How about hard resetting the device, will it work
This must be a generic flaw with the Mi A1 as mine is doing exactly the same. I suspect it's the USB-C port itself as it's got steadily worse over the months. I have an Outlook task to remind me to backup my phone using FreeFileSync. Everything is backed up anyway to the cloud but I do like to keep a copy of the high resolution photos as Google reduces quality with the free unlimited photo storage option.
It's charging fine so not too worried. Just need a different way to transfer the photos off the phone. I do have access to a business OneDrive account.
Working in IT, I'm not the world's biggest fan of the USB-C port. It's not as robust as the old USB-A port.

Honor 8 Lite PRA-LX1 can't connect to PC

Hello there dear XDA users. I have this problem.. 2 weeks ago I connected my phone to the PC to transfer some music. No problem! No HiSuit or any other program needed. Just put the cable on both sides and it works like a charm. So far so good. 2 days ago I wanted to get some more music to my phone. I connected it like I usually do for 100th time and this message popped on my PC screen. "the last device you connected to this computer malfunctioned" I said to myself "ok not big of a deal I will fix it." YES ...but NO. I tried EVERYTHING. Going into Manage:
Uninstalling all USB - Not working
Updating Drivers to all USB - Not working
Disabling all USB - Not working
Uninstalling all hidden USB - Not working.
______
Regedit:
I also tried that ,yes.
Regedit editing - Not working
Power options - Not working
I freaking tried everything but it still not working. Whenever I connect it to PC the message pops.
I downloaded HiSuit... here gets interesting. When I installed HiSuit it connected to the PC !!! BUT. After I disconnected it I wasn't able to connect it again even with HiSuit. I tried to do the steps as I did them when I connected it with HiSuit , not working yet again.
Also tried ALL USB ports on my PC . Tried 3 diffrent cables. Tried phone on different PC , still same error. Tried phones on my PC , no error. They connect like a charm.
Phone Factory Reset - Not working.
The phone is NOT rooted or updated out of stock Huawei 7.0 android.
Also the phone connects to PC and starts charging. I tried debugging and etc. Not working also.
I hate to be this person but.. bump?
