Hey guys,
I have an issue that's been frustrating me. I can't connect my Vivo to my pc. I should be fine because I did everything. I uploaded the newest driver (I believe), I downloaded Vivo Assistant to
pc and I turned on USB debugging. When I put on the cable to the phone it does nothing other than charging.
Am I missing something? I'd appreciate any help!
Thanks1
Have you enable under developer setting-select usb configuration-media transfer protocol (MTP)??
By default it's only for charging,actually all the smartphone by default is charging selected and every user must change it to MTP and so pc can recognized it as hard drive.

Yeah, I did actually. My phone is the global version. Can that be the issue?

Just to clarify situation.
Did you do what I've suggested and still your pc does not recognize your phone??
Did you tried different usb cable or different usb port on pc and still nothing??
This has nothing to do with global or any region parameter.
It's simple how every android device works.

See if when you connect to pc there's a message in notification center asking how you want to use USB connection. Select file transfer. You access this notification by sliding down from the top of the phone screen edge.
Also, unlock the phone before you connect to pc.

Yeah, I did what you suggested but sadly didn't work. I have used a different cable but haven't used a different pc. Maybe I should try that.

Remove MTP or your device from Device Manager and give it another go.

I cannot connect to my pc or my laptop using different USB cables. It just says charging without any notification or popup of any kind.

have you tried from another PC?
have you ever been able to connect from your PC?
do you have HTC sync installed on the PC? you'll probably find HTC Sync exe on the SD card that came with the phone if not from HTC support site download.
see this LINK where someone else had a very similar issue, only days ago....(although ignore the USB brick parts in this initial problem description....) and just read the help and suggestions that he was offered

Had exactly the same problem with Bindroid ROM final edition. Turns out I hadn't wiped correctly.... After installing another ROM everything was fine.
I plug in the USB to phone & computer, but it does not ask me how I want to connect (drive, media sync, etc.). I downloaded HTC's Sync software, which should have put the drivers on my PC, but still nothing...
Has anyone had any luck and can share how to get my PC to recognize the phone?
thanks!

If I'm not mistaken, the default behavior is 'Charge Only'. At least that's what my settings show.
Settings > Connect to PC
What do your settings look like?
This is hopefully a simple setting change and not a bug!
Look in your notification bar. There should be a little usb icon thing there. If you click on it a menu should come up with usb options

Got it set as "disk drive" but still nothing. Tried different settings, too, to see if I could get it to connect somehow - nothing. Might try rebooting the pc and phone and see if that does anything.
Should debugging be on or off?

I am unfortunately at work right now and can't help debugging yet.
Have you tried changing USB ports? Also it would be better to have the USB plugged in to the back of your computer. The front ports usually don't work well.
I usually have USB Debugging set to on.
To be honest I haven't actually tried to connect my HTC One X yet to a computer so this is all speculation.
Thanks all. Reboot of both did the trick!

Have you tried another port? Maybe you said so and i missed it, but i would try that first. The other thing i would do is check device manager and see if anything is showing up with the little yellow exclamation point. I had that happen it was showing android device. I google search and downloaded just the Win 7 x64 drivers. Ill put it on my dropbox and share it so you can download and see if that helps.

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.

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.

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.
So I think something on my USB port has malfunctioned... it won't show up in the device manager when I plug it in.
I have tried the sticky thread on Diagnosing USB Driver and ADB issues in Windows. I have searched the forums and internet and tried lots of driver installs and restart this and that.
Recently this started when I wanted to flash Android 6.0 to my phone. During the install with NRT after each erase and flash it would say Waiting for device, and the only way I would get it to proceed was to plug the USB and plug it back in... Now running Android 6.0 it won`t even recognize my device and won`t pop up the menu to choose your usb connection setting.
I have two Nexus 7, one Nexus 7 (2013), and another Nexus 5... and they all work fine and get recognized by the computer.
Please help, and is this fixable?
Am I going to have to do some phone surgery and change out the charging assembly?...

So you don't have a notification in the notification shade that says the phone is charging? There should be one that, when you tap it, opens up a dialog box to change it to a different connection.

Yeah it charges and it shows that it's charging with the lightning bolt on the battery icon. But not like my other Nexus 5, it does not pops up that menu with the different options (charging only, MTP, etc).

The menu doesn't pop up automatically. You have to tap on the notification. Maybe you need to turn on USB debugging in the developer options?

Hi,
I got my phone yesterday set it all up and it refuses to connect to PC. When I connect to PC it charges the phone but cannot transfer files. I don't get the popup asking me to charge MTP Mode etc.
I don't even get the option for usb debugging enabled. I've tried 4 different cables all still the same. It won't even let me select MTP, PTP etc in developer options. It just goes back to charging.
is there something I can try before I do a factory reset.
In using windows 10. I've also tried different USB ports but same result.
Thanks

Did you unlock (I mean entered the pincode/password/etc) the phone before connecting it? Sony phones refuse to connect when locked.
Also, does the companion ask you to put your phone in MTP mode? Normally it should display a notification with an option to use MTP (File Transfer) if you click on it.
On my side everything works as it should.
As already said, did you unlock your phone while connecting?

Yes I did that. Also just did a factory reset. That hasn't helped either.
can you connect other devices to that usb port?

My Z5 Premium connects and works fine. I have 10 usb ports on my pc and I have tried them all.
Does your PC have a USB 3.0 port? Maybe that's a problem, because the phone has USB 3.1 and all the previous Sony phones had USB 2.0. But USB should be backwards compatible, so this might not be the problem.

So the phone acts like you just connected it to regular charger, not a PC.
If so, I can suggest you to connect it to a different PC or to your Z5 Premium via OTG cable to see if the PC is a problem.
When I connect Z5P to my Z3 like that it shows a notification with MTP mode selection. (Z3 doesn't see Z5P in any way, just charges it, but it is recognized not as a regular charger by Z5P, but as a PC.)
