ummm, that'd prolly clear my problem up, but would take too much time getting everything reinstalled and reconfigured. Phone's fully functional as far as I can tell, just USB Debugging setting is greyed out. Any ideas other than a factory reset?

heh, figured it out. Thanks, XDA...
anyhoo, seems USB Debugging is greyed out *if* USB is set to Ask on Connect. Set to Mass Storage and USB Debugging is available...

I just got a replacement handset and now I am unable to enter into usb debugging mode. I can select it but as soon as I exit the screen it becomes unselected. I have also tried to select mass storage instead Ask on Connect but it won't let me do that either. Every time I try to select another option I am bumped of the screen. What is going on here?
By the way I have a Samsung Galaxy S 4G. This doesn't make any sense other than T-Mobile disabled this feature.

It would make more sense to ask at the SGS4G forum.

PC not recognizing S3 ...

It seems no matter what I do, my PC, & a few others, just WILL NOT recognize my Verizon S3! Yes, the Samsung drivers have been installed in all of them. I am at my witt's end with this phone. #Ugh!!!
PS: I am pretty sure I have been through every single "option" within the settings, & I cannot find anything to help. If I drop the pull-down menu, & If I catch it quick enough, I can tap the USB icon & be taken to a screen where I have a choice for either "media" or "camera" whatnot.

BTW: I am sitting here with a brand new phone, & a 32gb card installed, & mounted.
I have never had luck with just plugging in my phone, I always use an adapter.

Yes, I try different ports, ... The "USB" icon just will NOT stay in the upper left of the screen/display.
Same problem
Same problem!
I'm may be wrong but I seem to recall reading that there is a technical limitation preventing this. I gave up and just used kies.
It could be your PC sucks... or u have a service disabled

I thought I'd mention this just in case ... if you plug your phone in while the screen is locked you'll need to unlock it to get the volumes to mount and appear in explorer.
If you are running XP or later you should not have to load any special USB drivers to make mass storage work.

You could also try putting the w phone in it usb debugging mode and let the computer auto detect and install drivers just in case.

Neither comment is helpful. Especially since he said he tried other computers.
OP, my Sprint S3 connects automatically with USB Debugging enabled on the phone so I don't have to hit anything on the phone. Then a popup shows up on Windows asking what I want to do.
FNM
Try this maybe if u havent already...
Sorry to hear that. Normally when I plug in my S3 to my Win7 Laptop, It just detects and auto-play pops open with what I want to do.
You should try plugging the S3 into the back of the computer and also deleting the drivers that were installed from the phone already and re-installing.

[Q] "Allow USB Debugging?" Keeps Popping Up!

After upgrading to 4.3 on my i535 GS3, I'm now faced with a very annoying new problem. I use easytether pro to tether to my macbook, and now when I plug in the usb it pops up with "Allow USB Debugging?" followed by my computer's RSA key fingerprint, and then a checkbox for "Always allow from this computer".
It doesn't matter if I check the "always allow" because the next time I plug it in, it pops up with the same message again. For some reason it's not recognizing my computer, even though the RSA key fingerprint is exactly the same every time. Even worse, I have to go through this process twice every single time I plug in my usb - once for the usb connected as an installer, and twice when it switches from installer to media device.
I use tethering quite a bit, so this is kind of grinding my gears! Does anybody know what might be going on here? Is it possibly just a mac thing? Perhaps something wrong with my settings?
Try this, In developer options ->root access - allow apps and adb also USB debugging notify is unchecked.

I don't seem to have any "root access" options in my developer options. Is it hidden or something?
Sorry I must be half sleeping and thinking about custom ROM. You don't have that option, anyway do you still have the messag after untick the notify option?

You mean leave the "Always allow from this computer" unticked? I've tried both ways...it always comes back. It wouldn't be a big deal if it wasn't for the face that the connection is blocked until I hit the ok button, twice around.
Still having the issue. It's starting to grind my gears...
I nobody else having this issue?

I just started having this issue and am investigating it. If I had to guess, I'd say the rsa key store is corrupt, but I'm just guessing. It was working fine this morning, and this afternoon it started yelling at me repeatedly.
I'm going to grab a logcat then will post back if/how I fixed it.
EDIT: turns out my issue was a bad USB cable. well, a bad USB cable connection. unplugged and reseated the cable and it seems to be working now.
I am also having this issue with two devices out of three I tried.
Samsung Note 10.1 (SM-P600) running Android 4.3 and ASUS K011 (ME181CX) running Android 4.4.2 always asks for permission. I tried everything including using different cables, different usb slots, different adb.exe. Even tried rooting K011, but no luck.
However, I am not having this issue with Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc (LT15i) running 4.0.4.
Edit: I came here from Google and now noticed that this is Galaxy S III section, but I think the reason to this issue and the solution will be the same. I will post the solution to here if I can do it.
---------- Post added at 03:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:21 PM ----------
Yeah, solved it. I first killed adb.exe then simply deleted the folder C:\Users\Username\.android. After that I plugged my device in and typed "adb devices". This changed the RSA key etc. It asked for the permission again and "Always allow" option worked this time.
This method worked on both ASUS and Samsung. Hope this works for you too.
Note: I recommend you backup that folder before deleting it. Or just move it into another folder.
Mac computer
I'm having this issue with easy tether 1.1.12 in a mac (currently running OS X Yosemite 10.10.3) the windows keeps showing everytime I plug the device. Does anyone experience this on a mac computer?
In a windows 7 PC it works perfectly, no messages at all after clicking the "remember" box.

Default USB mode when plugging into computer

Is there any way to make the phone come up in MTP mode by default when plugging into a computer? Currently it defaults to charging mode when first plugged in and I have to tap the notification to change to MTP.
That's odd. Mine automatically goes to mtp. There is an option to change the default usb mode in developer options.

I already tried that. Set it to default to MTP, but it still comes up in charge mode.
Again, strange. I've heard of usb debugging mode interfering with mtp, try toggling that perhaps
Edit to add:
Falling that there is an app based solution that automates the process for you provided you have root here https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-mtp-enbaler-t3263467

Tried turning off USB debugging, but same result. Then thought it might be related to security settings. I have a pin and fingerprints setup to unlock screen. Turned all that off but same results.
Currently am un-rooted on this phone. Had some trouble getting SU installed plus there are currently no custom Nougat ROMS for this phone, so backed it all out to stock recovery/locked bootloader. Now testing out DNS66 for adblocking and OGyoutube for ad-free youtube experience. Works pretty well so far.

After an extensive search through the forums and contacting Honor services, the problem seems to be the motherboard. Something in the phone seems to have fried during one of the charging sessions. This can't be fixed, according to those I have spoke to about it.

How to change FYT head units(SC9853i/UIS7862/CC3..)USB mode?

I need to connect to a computer for debugging, but I can't find this setting option in the head unit.
I am using the method of turning on wifi adb in the configuration file to realize debugging now, but it is not convenient for USB adb debugging.
The default USB mode of the head unit is HOST MODE, I need to change it to DEVICE MODE.
Sorry for such a low-level question, I missed it
The answer is in the developer options

Top right of developer options 3 dots.
Click that and you'll get two options. Both in Chinese.

Pixel 2 broken screen - File transfer

Hello guys,
Today I unfortunately dropped my Pixel 2 with following result: screen is broken and won't light up again .
The phone is still working as i feel the vibrations when touching the buttons.
I assume that the screen is totally gone, but is there a way that i can recover all my data that was on the phone?
If I could just connect it to my computer and be able to recover it all, it would make the pain a little bit less.
Using ADB or any other solution?
Any help from you all is more than welcome and highly appreciated!

Did you happen to toggle the usb debugging option in developer settings before you dropped it?
If you can access phone via ADB then you can pull out most of user-data stored on.

I can't remember if i ever turned it on.
When i launch ADB and give the command 'adb devices' it won't give any results... So i think it's not enabled.
Any options without USB Debugging ON?

Or maybe you don't have the usb drivers installed on your pc.
Can't think of any way besides adb.
