I upgraded to Sky-ICS RC7.4 Speed yesterday and today. Obviously the USB mass storage was working earlier because I got the .zip file for the upgrade on the phone. Well, just a little while ago I tried to connect so I could pull those zip files off just to save some room and it won't connect.
I can charge the phone, the laptop(Windows 7) and the phone both make sound/vibrate when connected. BUT, with I go to "Connect storage to PC" it tells me to unplug the cable, which it hasn't before but I did it anyway. I unplug the cable press the connect button again it states to connect the cable, I do. Press the button to connect and I get the same result. I've tried enable USB debugging and try again and it states to disable, blah blah blah.
It's great that I can charge the phone via USB all day long but really sucky that I can't access any of my files via my laptop.
Anyone had this issue or know of any fixes that may alleviate this issue? I sure would appreciate your help.
FYI, USB drivers are installed on the laptop and reapplied after the the issue of not being able to connect USB mass storage...
update: I am able to see the two mounts in computer management on my Windows 7 machine but not able to access them through My Computer.
I was reading from other threads about a possible Windows issue, how I find it unlikely, but I did a system restore from an earlier date and that made no difference. It's still a matter of the phone connecting completely to the pc.
Also tried different ports and usb cables, no avail.
I could really use some input so that if need be I can access the files on the phone to either flash back to stock or at least modify the files I have on there now to let me be able to attach my mass storage. I'm liking the the rom it's just a few little things like this that are making me completely love it.
i have the same issue if i plug in to the front usb ports. no problems with the back and its only been since i updated to seans latest speed stripped ICS rom
I was having the same issues. I turned the phone off, took the battery out, and then restarted it. It worked.

Correct; you need to reboot your phone because you probably connected / disconnected too fast and the phone is bugged out now.
I'm on 7.4 speed stripped and its working fine for me. Did you try installing the Samsung USB drivers exe in the dev forum?

My computer for some reason reminded itself of not recognizing my Idol 3 5'5 6045k. Two days ago it was all fine and now everytime i connect it to the computer it only charges. I've tried everything from changing usb cables to unistalling andthen installing the device drivers, enabling debugging, restaring either smartphone and computer. Everything I can think of. Please help me out, I'm trying to root the smartphone and without it recognizing I can't do anything, not even transfer files. :crying:

Obvious Question #1: Did you check the phone notification dropdown area to verify the phone is in MTP or PTP mode so it will show up on the pc? As for transfering files...you do have the option of loading up a microsd card with whatever files or installing a wifi adb app to connect wirelessly. You could even use an app like airdroid to let you do all sorts of things.

Therre's no notification after connecting the usb, it just charges the phone, seriously, I've tried everything to enable MTP but nothing does the job. And what do you mean by using an adb app? Can I root my smartphone by a wireless connection?

You are overcomplicating things. 1st...there is ALWAYS a notification in the dropdown that says what mode the phone is in....mtp, ptp, charge only or "cdrom mode" which installs the usb drivers. Pressing on that notification allows you to change the mode the device is in.
As for rooting....all you need to do that is to flash or boot TWRP (details on booting it are in the system image thread) and then flash the supersu zip from inside twrp to your device...reboot and done...but I think in the newer TWRP's they even offer options to root automatically...ie the zip is already built in. After rebooting to your phone you install the supersu apk from google play so you can configure what apps have superuser access.

Your telling me when the phone is plugged into the pc you don't see the notifications below or some version of them at all? If so then you need to fully uninstall the devices in device manager including remove the drivers...then use the drivers in the system image thread (since you obviously can't use the ones from "cd rom mode" which would be the best solution). USB debugging isn't even an issue yet...your phone should still show up to the pc as a camera device (ptp) under just about ANY scenario using even built in windows drivers.

Thanks for all those tips, but I already tried that out aswell, 2 times to be precise, deleted all the drivers, rebooted pc and smartphone, tried different cables, but still nothing ever occurs.

Have you tried a different cable? Perhaps that one is damaged or is only setup for charging? Only thing I can think of.
And then I realize you mentioned that Not sure what else would prevent it from giving you those options.
I'm also facing similar issue after the 2 update. Were you able to fix this?

Which kind of USB cable(s) have you tried specifically? Were they cheap eBay/generic kinds or well known branded ones?
Something as little as a Micro USB cable can cure a lot of problems. It needs to be a well built one by a known manufacturer to avoid problems.

Actually I've been having pretty good luck with the $1 ones from Dollar Tree but the key is certainly to try multiple cables....on some the microusb plug will make it difficult to get a solid connection especially if you have a case on the phone.
You may be missing the point of "trying" different cables. It's not so much the "quality" of the cable, it's the fact that some cables are for "power only", and "will not" transfer data, regardless of how hard you try.
You need to be using a "proven" data/power cable, otherwise your beating your head against the table for nothing.
Just to add, I put a piece of red tape on all my usb cables that are power only, no guess work.
I own idol3/moto g 2015 and s3, have no problem with other 2 device. I'm having this MTP issue after the UE40 update. Verified in all 3 OS, adb is detecting the device but not MTP/PTP. Idol3 support is not worthy responses.

Well, USB works fine here, and I've had 5 different rom's, 2 Canadian, 2 US, and the Chinese rom, on this phone without any USB issues, sorry, can't help any further.
After a complete wipe and restore, it worked.

I had the same problem as well. It only showed charging when I plugged in the USB cable. Tried switching cables, turning off and on USB debugging but nothing worked. I finally just rebooted the phone and then it worked again. Strange that it suddenly stopped.
I have a different issue; the different USB modes work fine but I don't have the 'cdrom' option in the USB mode dialog. I've tried various Alcatel ADB drivers that I have found and none are working, using Win7 64. My Idol 3 4.7 is 6039I (US).
Answered my own question, simply install the Mobile Upgrade Q software.
nope, doesn't show up. it's a bug. i had it before, googled until i found a fix and got it working, now it's back to not being recognized. nothing shows on drop down menu.
Hello there! I posted in the N00B thread without any success and so am casting a wider net:
I have a rooted phone that's been working well for about 1.5 yrs and all of a sudden it's not able to connect to the computer via USB. It was working fine til about 3 months ago, no new apps or changes to the system as far as I know. It still charges when connecting to the computer but I don't get the prompt to choose the USB mode and the computer doesn't recognize it as any sort of device. I've tried it on several computers that have recognized it in the past without luck (drivers up to date) and have tried different USB cords.
I've gone to USB and developer settings and changed and restored default settings for USB connection as well as toggled a bunch of other settings in that section.
I've wiped the Cache and Davlik Cache several times.
I cleaned out the physical port. Any other thoughts? thanks!
If you are on windows 10 PC, the latest windows updates could be an issue. I faced the same issue with my computer. After rolling back windows update (or may be resetting the PC to default settings) has helped resolve my issue and i could connect my phone again normally. It is nothing to do with your phone as far as i know.

You said the drivers were up to date but you didn't say whether you tried completely uninstalling the drivers. If you didn't, uninstall every driver you can find related to the Honor, reboot and plug the phone back in. I'm running the absolute latest version of Windows 10 and have no problem connecting my wife's Honor 8.

Thanks for your suggestion - I did try rolling back the update without benefit. Also, to reiterate - this is not being recognized by several computers (including a Mac) and that leads me to believe that it's the phone that's the source of the issue. I don't even get the USB menu (Charging, MTP transfer, debug mode, etc) when I plug it into several different computers.

It may be too obvious but did you try another USB cable? If it's not the cable try this with the default dialer *#*#2846579#*#* then select in background>usb hisuite, connect the cable and see what happens.

I have tried different cables but no suggestion is too obvious! My sister in law actually also has an Honor 8 and her cable on my laptop is recognized, so that's what I've been using to troubleshoot with my phone. I did go into that menu you suggested and I tried toggling HiSuite, Manufacture, and Google and exit the menu and still nothing when I connect the cable (other than charging). Thanks

Have you played with any of the developer options like USB Debugging or USB configuration...... Nevermind, just re-read your original post. I was almost sure the dialer thing would fix it but if a reset won't I'm at a loss. I still don't think that it's a hardware problem but I guess it could be. There are things like wiping the cache partition that I see some folks have used for various problems. That would be an option that wouldn't affect your apps.
When I plugged in the usb cable yesterday morning to my car, android auto did not start. When I came back from work I tried to plug my phone into my computer, but the phone did not show up. Normally you get a notification where you can choose between charging only, file transfer,.... but I don't get this notification.
I already tried to use another pc, another usb cable, tried to do a factory reset, but all with no success. I don't think it is a driver issue, because last week everything was working fine and also when I plug in my OnePlus 5 I immediately get that notification to choose between charging only, file transfer,...
Anyone of you experiencing the same issue or knows what is wrong?

You can set default USB behavior in Developer Options (i.e., which become accessible if you tap About Phone's --> Build Number a bunch of times). If all troubleshooting alternatives become exhausted, I would suggest backing up any important files to an external drive, and flashing a different ROM or possibly using MSM tool to re-flash stock. MSM tool might be more thorough than some other options, so that's what I would do if nothing else solved the issue.

One possible option is to try booting PC to some Linux distro live USB and seeing if the PC recognizes the OnePlus 7 Pro. Another option might be booting to TWRP recovery and seeing if the PC can recognize the phone when connected.

Thank you very much I will look into this when I'm back home from work ?
After trying this without succes, I decides to send my phone for a repair via OnePlus. I filled in the repair form and the next day a UPS guy picked up my phone. A day after, the phone arrived at the service center. The same day the phone was repaired (replaced USB fpc) and send back to my home. So basically in 3 days my phone was repaired free of charge. I have to say I'm very happy with the service OnePlus gives! ??

As the title states, my phone is no longer being recognized by my computer when I plug it in. I've tried multiple cables, multiple ports on the computer, both ports on the phone, factory resetting the phone, uninstalling and re-installing drivers on my computer, booting to Ubuntu so I wouldn't need to worry about drivers. Nothing has worked. I'm not even getting the USB prompt on my phone when I plug it in. It DOES charge but I'm not able to transfer files, adb or anything. ASUS wants me to send the phone in but I don't want to go who knows how long without my phone, plus I don't think it's right that I have to pay to ship it when it's their phone that is ****ting the bed. Could anyone PLEASE help me? Thanks.

If your phone won't connect to the computer using the USB cable, then the FIRST thing most people do you've done, which is switch cables and rebooting the phone (factory reset is extreme but you did that also).
The second thing most people do is install the manufacturer's drivers, which you also did.
The third thing you can do though, is connect the phone to the computer WITHOUT the USB cable (i.e., over Wi-Fi) because that will work even if your phone port is broken and even if the USB cables are bad and even if the drivers aren't on the computer.
Below are screenshots of just some of the ways to connect the phone to the computer over Wi-Fi without any cables, and if you want, you can follow one of my tutorials on the subject.

Would I still be able to adb using the wifi method? My main issue is trying to remove the old Google Pay app. Which I'm unable to unless it's through adb.
Just an update. I was, in fact, able to run adb commands while connected using wi-fi. Thank you @GalaxyA325G for your input.

Not sure what to tell you about your signal dropping, but
is the video I used to finally use adb via WiFi.
Have you tried clearing the adb authorizations (in developer options) with the phone disconnected and then connecting? Sometimes a change can trigger the phone to stop recognizing the computer as allowed without treating it as a new connection.
