So I just successfully installed Lineage 14.1 on my Galaxy S6 (International), using TWRP, and the OS works wonders.
Additionally I wish to have root access over my phone, so through TWRP I installed this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...at-supersu-t3570740/post71367695#post71367695
The installation of the above goes through fine and afterwards I can go to developer options and enable "ADB Only". My question is: Why can't I also pick "Storage"?
Screenshot of how my "Root access" tab looks, under "Developer options": https://i.imgur.com/NxYr2jD.png
I'm trying to install Xposed and it says I don't have sufficient root access, my guess is because I don't have the option to also gain root access over storage.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

hi, my phone ulefone armor 6e, I cannot upload firmware because the computer cannot see the phone. I tried all methods on 3 different cables and 3 different computers, in normal mode and fastboot mode, the computer does not see the phone. I installed the drivers properly, but when I connect the phone to the computer, there is no reaction or movement in the device manager section. The interesting thing is that the fast charging feature is lost. It also charges slowly when I plug it into wireless charging.
So i m trying this way, wifi debug and root using adb. but attach files not here, what can i do? please help. I have to one way wifi adb, how can i make root the phone, or flash recovery?

Alright, here goes my first post. I have lingered in these forums for awhile, and have always found what I needed. This is the first time my searching on here, as well as google, has let me down.
To clarify, if I connect to my computer and have USB Mass Storage on, I can see it, move files to it and everything. My problem is, I am using my old phone (P500) to learn and practice ADB (I own a GNEX), and would like to install CWM via ADB, but I need to move files to the root of my sd.. but my phone won't show up if it's in debugging mode!
I have the drivers installed, and used a toolkit to root (worked fine, no errors). Am I missing something here or is there another issue?
Info:
Windows 7 64bit
Telus Mobility (Canada)
Model: LG-P500h
Android 2.3.3 (stock)

Since the device is not getting detected with USB Debugging enabled it's safe to assume a bad driver installation. To verify tho, enable USB Debugging on the device and connect it to your PC. Go to Device Manager. Somewhere towards the top, assuming the drivers were installed will be a device "ADB Interface" with a subitem "Android Platform Sooner Single ADB Interface" or something similiar. If the "ADB Interface" item isn't there then the drivers weren't installed correctly. Uninstall them. Reboot computer. Rerun driver installation program. When it finished, reboot your PC. Power off the device. Connect it to your PC. Power on the device and let all drivers install. You should be good to go from here.
If you'd like a good known set of LGE USB drivers, download Android Flash Recovery, link is in my signature. Hope this helps.

Oh, and Welcome to XDA
Hello Helpers, I shattered my Nexus 4 screen, and the phone has a Pin lock, and is currently in Airplane Mode with BlueTooth enabled. It does Not have USB debugging enabled.
My objective is just to pull out the video, audio, and pictures files, after which I would throw the phone away. I appreciate any feedback, or if someone can help me post a reply to "k.janku1" at the post here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2786395 Please refer to point (4) below.
So is there a way I can enabled USB debugging or pull my files out? Following are what I have done, and none are successful in accessing the phone:
1) I have an OTG cable with a mouse. Nexus 4 would not recognize it. I did try to have this OTG Cable + Mouse plug into another Motorola phone and it worked, just not Nexus 4.
2) I plug my Nexus 4 into the PC through the USB cable, the Windows 10 recognize it but when I try to browse that Nexus 4, no files show up.
3) I installed the Android Studio 2.2.2, with various SDK (5.0 and 5.1 SDK) + Google USB driver. And then proceed to run the ADB "shell" or "devices" command located in folder "platform-tools", and the command line would tell me -- "error: no devices/emulators found", or "List of Devices attached" but with NO list of devices displayed. I even boot into Recovery Mode and the ADB command still not seeing any phone.
4) I even try the post here, and I could not get it working either -- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2786395
i) I tried the steps listed here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=66731042&postcount=260 but it does not work for me. The step (2) here returned me "No devices", while step (3) is sort of confusing as it involves TWRP (??) and it said BootLoader would erase all my data files!
ii) Another post here in the same thread -- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=62398797#post62398797 which mentions the use of "Flash through ADB". But then my phone does not have USB Debugging enabled, so how can ADB talk to the phone in the 1st place? And compile his codes in Android Studio perhaps?
iii) Another post of same thread -- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=61792353#post61792353 which is lengthy and involves self-custom kernel + compile using Kernel Kitchen. Would this really work?
Thanks

I had the same of your situation i search and tried a lot of things even show the phone screen in pc but me too i didn't have usb debugging enabled, so what i did is :
Flash the stock ROM for my phone by Odin (it don't need usb Debugging enabled it is for Samsung phones) and by flashing new ROM all your files will be stay in the internal storage, after that the files will be showed in the PC, i don't know if u try that before so that is my solution

Thank you for the hint. But I doubt if this approach would work for Nexus 4. I searched online for Odin + Samsung, seems like Samsung phone has a Download mode where the phone would accept the new image file put to it. There is no such mode for Nexus 4, so the phone would not read anything in easy steps like Download mode.
Greetings.
I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 4 with a completely broken screen (no display, no touch response).
Android version is 4.2.2.
The phone is working, as pressing the power button lights up the bottom bar.
The phone is rooted, however, USB debugging is disabled. The phone is also pattern locked.
I am aiming to gain remote access to the phone through my PC, ideally mirroring the screen so I can manually backup everything from my phone. In the worst case, backup through ADB is also acceptable.
Initially, I attempted to mirror the screen using:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2786395
However, it requires ADB, which in turn requires USB debugging to be enabled.
To enable USB debugging, I attempted to modify the build.prop through ADB shell in recovery mode:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2335799
However, it is done so using custom recovery (TWRP) which I assume cannot be done in stock recovery (not confirmed, please respond if untrue).
I attempted to edit the build.prop manually:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-g4/themes-apps/tool-edit-build-prop-pc-t3312517
But It requires USB debugging to be enabled as well, and I assume it to be true for most such tools.
I also attempted to install a custom recovery (TWRP):
https://www.xda-developers.com/how-to-install-twrp/
However, out of the 3 installation methods listed, 2 require USB debugging and 1 requires application installation on the phone.
Using a USB OTG mouse to enable USB debugging would be difficult, since display is broken.
Since 4.2+ also shows a prompt to allow access to USB debugging to PCs, I assume I could use this:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/help/bypass-secure-usb-debugging-prompt-t2965462
However, I would need ADB first, which also comes back to USB debugging.
I would prefer not repairing the phone or getting a new screen, the phone is old, i'm trying to change phones.
Data in the phone must be preserved, as much as possible. I am willing to compromise, somewhat.
ADB seems powerful enough that I could achieve my goals if only I could access my phone through it.
Is it possible to enable USB debugging remotely through some other method to allow me to use ADB?
Is it possible to flash a custom rom with an edited build.prop without screen input and while preserving phone data?
Please suggest options.
Hi there,
I have a Samsung SM-G390F XCover 4 - FCC ID: A3LSMG390F
The phone seems to be locked to Samsung MDM, and a policy which is out of my control is stopping me from enabling USB Debugging.
I have a problem, i want to remove Knox totally, do a factory reset and return the phone to normal. I have tried flashing an original stock ROM which from the result of Odin flashed ok, though did not overwrite Knox when rebooted. Its a pain in the arse this Knox.
I have tried factory resets, though Knox still contacts or locates whatever and wherever and applies a system update each time, which then takes me through a custom setup and you cant do much unless you complete that (Knox Security Prevents X,Y, and Z) If i can stop this i can have a useable normal phone.
I would also like to root this phone and install TWRP. I have tried some steps to install TWRP as found on here but its not worked.
Also are there any Firmware's such as Lineage for the SM-G390F, cant seem to find a lot of information on this model of phone.
Any help would be appreciated.
I am facing the same issue, it seems. I can charge the tablet (SM GT-8000) via USB, but there is no data connection whatsoever (doesnt show up in lsusb) . USB debugging is enabled in developer options.
I am working with Ubuntu Linux and Windows 10. I have three brand new data cables. My aim is to set up TWRP and install LineageOS like this: https://www.mhs-solutions.com/instructions/
How do you assume that it is Knox causing this behaviour? I have tried to disable/delete Knox from the device by rooting it (KingoRoot worked well) and removing the APKs manually: KLMS Agent, Knox Notification Manager, Knox Store.
I also successfully ran 'su pm disable com.sec.knox.seandroid' in a Terminal Emulator and did the same with 'com.sec.enterprise.knox.attestation' and 'com.sec.knox.eventsmanager"
Manually deleting the system files did not work due to / being read-only: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/how-to-disable-or-uninstall-knox.2535665/post-47674248
However, with wirebug i was able to establish an ADB connection with usb debugging. I pushed some files to the sd card in order to sideload the ROM later in stock recovery, but did not work out thus far.
You might want to check 'adb shell am start com.android.settings/.UsbSettings' if the MTP is activated, which seems to be needed for USB debugging.
Still no data connection via USB (lsusb, dmesg) even in Odin mode (heimdall detect). Did you get any further in your troubleshooting?
Hey guys. I have a Rockchip RK3288 based device running Lollipop 5.1.1 that I would like ADB access to. I have tried all 3 USB modes, and it shows up on my PC each time, but neither "adb devices" nor "fastboot devices" ever shows it. I know, you're thinking "Have you enabled USB debugging?". No I haven't, and there's a reason. "7 taps" doesn't DO anything. I've also tried 10, 20, and 100. None of them seem to do anything. (There aren't any administrators, or other users defined either). Normally, the first step would be to root it. I've tried that as well. Towel root, Kingo Root, etc. Kingo makes it to 90%, and reboots. (Leaving it not rooted). Towel root just seems to hang. (Left it running overnight to make sure. No dice). I've also tried an APK from GitHub that just changes the Developer Mode flags. That just gets denied execution.
Twists:
* The device came with ES File Manager installed, and it's old enough that the HTTP exploit is still there.
* I can install third party APKs. (Obviously).
* I can't build/install/reflash a new ROM as the device has to stay like it is.
* USB Mass storage class works, so I can copy TO/FROM it very easily
* Device has no volume up/down buttons to use to get to recovery.
I just need root/ADB access.
What approaches have I missed?
Root Genius (RootGenius-v2.2.89.apk) also didn't work. I only took 1 semester of Mandarin, so I have to mostly GUESS, but it LOOKS like it was saying that I need to go to a website (that is no longer up), and download a PC app to do the rooting. (Which would be hard to do since the site is no longer up).
