Please advise on how to circumvent repetitive rebooting to enable USB devices to connect to Sony Xperia XZ Premium, a real pain in the ass! Any suggestions?

I bought a new Xperia z3 and compact and I tried to connect the z3 on my laptop to transfer files but it can't connect via mtp mode for some reason. I can hear the sound connecting and disconnecting but there was no response to the phone and laptop. Not even a notification on the phone. MSC mode is working fine btw. I tried all such as removing sd and sim, restarting both devices but no luck. I know it is the phone itself is the problem because my Z3 compact is working just fine. I was able to connect the compact to the pc wirelessly via LAN but to be able to do that you need to pair the device via mtp mode. Anyone have the same problem? As I check the phone physically, I think it is one of the first phones with factory defects. I can see that the top back part is not fitted to the glass. You can even see it moving closer if you press it towards each. I don't know if the hardware and software are connected, I hope not. I can't give it back to be replaced because there's no visible defects. Just hoping the next update can fix the main issue.
After plugging the device to pc go to device manager and remove xperia z3. Then scan for new hardware. Then it will download the driver for your device automatically and your device would be visible in PC.
I m doing this every time I connect my z3 with laptop.
Anyone else have any permanent and better solution?
A pop up on my pc says Driver installation failed or something like that.. But thanks to you, you remind me having the same problem with my old Xperia Play. The key is the "usb debugging mode" box should be checked. To do that, go to settings =>about=>build number.. Tap it several times until the developer options will come visible at the settings and there you go. You can now connect via mtp mode. Btw, you can hide the developer options again for some oc reasons by going to apps=>all=>settings then clear the data.
Hi all, can anyone help? I smashed my phone at the weekend and really want to get back in to it if only to turn on contacts sync and see who keeps texting me, but for some reason USB debugging isn't on. Phone is stock.
Plugging in with USB = recognised in device manager as Xperia Z3. I've tried to download Android SDK, and install the USB drivers from the Sony website (says best driver already installed - the ones from the Sony website don't have any kind of installation program so not sure what I'm supposed to do with them!).
I know this isn't easy but can anyone guide me through getting in to it and getting USB debugging on so I can use Android Control? It seems I need to get the phone in to recovery mode so that it automatically enables USB debugging? If I hold down power/volume up a few times or in a weird combination, the LED goes blue and the phone comes up in device manager as 's1boot' and then 's1boot fastboot'. I've tried installing the drivers I've found from DooMLoRD but they don't help me access the phone at all, it still says unable to find the device. adb devices from the adb folder command prompt says no devices (i presume because USB debugging still disabled). I feel like I have made progress but need a bit more progress still to get in, if it is at all possible!
New thread because I can't find anyone with a Sony Xperia Z3 trying this, with the same steps taken/blue LED etc.
USB OTG+ USB mouse
Try to use USB OTG+USB mouse, that did the trick for me
no display whatsoever... so having a mouse isn't going to help me sadly! unless i can get the screen displayed on a computer monitor or something?

Literally the first thing that comes up on google:

Problem is you need a kernel that has adb / usb debugging enabled by default.
So you either need a dev to do it for you or figure a way out to do it yourself.
Otherwise there's probably no way to do it.
when connecting my xperia z5 to my pc, the phone charges but i dont get the usb connected notification thus not being able to transfer files. all drivers correctly installed.
the usb lead is high quality
is this got to do with deleting media storage data? because i did do that once, besides that, anyone got solution to this? stock xperia firmware 7.1.1 (bootloader locked)
Hi,
I hope this is not a cross-post; I've read a few other guides and suggestions on this forum already but my problem seems to be the opposite of what many people have.
I've got an Xperia Z5 Compact (not rooted) with a chipped screen. Touch does not work at all, but the display works fine.
I plugged in a mouse via OTG adapter and enabled USB debugging, then plugged it into my PC to attempt connecting with ADB. However, once I plug in a new device the phone wants me to confirm to "allow" the connection coming from my PC. But since my mouse is no longer plugged in, I can't accept the popup.
I tried to connect with AirDroid as well to try to accept the popup via screen share, but in order to allow WiFi screen sharing, it needs root (or an adb connection).....which makes the problem kind of circular.
Any suggestions or tips (or resources I might have overlooked?)
Thanks,
Rafael
