I have recently installed a custom ROM but when I tried to connect my phone to my laptop, it was not recognized. I have tried formatting and resinstalling the ROM but its no use. When I rebooted into TWRP my PC recognized my phone just fine, using the exact same cable. Can anyone help me on this?
To make sure you're not overlooking something obvious: Did you change the setting in USB Preferences on the phone from charging to "file transfer"? A notification should have popped up, or you may need to go to settings. My chromebook won't detect phone until I do this step.
Turned out it's a ROM issue. I switched the ROM and now everything is working normally

Hi all
I have successfully flashed Cyanogen nightly on my phone. However, when I connect it to my PC, it doesn't give me an option to transfer files to and from my phone to my computer. All I see is the USB debugging on my notification bar. I have tried this advice from
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13636060&postcount=1465
I have also installed the drivers from LG. When I use the support tool to update it, it says that they cannot find a connection between the phone and my computer. Would that possibly be an issue?
Thanks!
EDIT UPDATE: When I follow the instruction from the link above, I get an error saying "Windows found driver for your device but encountered an error while trying to install it.
LGE Android Composite USB Device
This device cannot start.(Code 10)
I hope I can get some help! Thanks again!
I'm gonna be home in a minute if you want me to upload the LG driver exe I used and know works I can.

Yeah, that would be great. Let me know when you can.

I really hope it works for you *fingers crossed*
Unfortunately that didn't work either.
What's weird is that when I connect my phone to my computer, that icon that lets you know that the USB is connected doesn't show up at all. The icon where you can select to copy files to/from your computer.
I've tried many things but haven't fixed this problem yet.
I really hope someone else can help sorry
Yeah, thanks for your help.
Have you tried restarting both the phone and the pc?
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
Yes I sure have. Any other suggestions?
When I try to update the LG drivers via the software support tool it gets stuck on checking the connection with the phone and tells me to unplug the battery, restart the phone, and try again. When I do that, I get the same problem.
I'm still working on this same issue. Today I used the ROM for recovery linked below.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1248644
It worked and I was able to transfer files to my internal SD with the stock ROM. I then flashed CM7 once again but had the same problem. I then used the CM Nexus GB by Faux123 and once again had the same problem. When I plug in my USB, debugging icon shows up but the USB transfer doesn't show at all.
I find it weird that it worked with the stock ROM but not with either of CM7 or CM Nexus.
Any suggestions would be helpful.
Hey, i have had my sensation about 2 months, now when i connect it to a pc it dosnt ask what connection type to choose, it only charges, in the menu it is set to ask me about connection type, while connected to pc there is now no icon in the notification area (used to say 'charge only' or 'disk drive') even when rebooted into 4ext recovery and mounted/toggle usb connection, it dosnt connect as a disk drive like it has always done in the past, it only charges, i have tried 3 different pc's and 3 different micro usb cables, also have tried updating the firmware to 3.24 and installed ICS with the same result, i think its a hardware issue? last time it worked was 3 days ago connected via usb to a jvc headunit listening to my music files.
Weird problem!
Maybe you could try with a different SD card to eliminate the possibility of it being an SD card problem?
If it still doesn't work with another SD Card it may well be a hardware problem.

Well I had the same problem with the custom ROM I use.
Installing it clean with a full wipe solved it.
It is definitely NOT the pc, laptop or SD-card.
Are you on a custom ROM?
- Yes then install clean with full wipe. (make a nandroid backup!!!) and install all apps new.
- No then do a total reset (reset to factory settings) and do all the install stuff new. After that you can also install with RUU your ROM designated for your device.
You will see your USB connection will show up!!
same here
i have exactly the same problem as described in op.
will try flashing a new rom then also; first have to buy a flashcard reader then to get my new rom ON the sd card....
or do you think a nandroid restore would fix the problem? will try that first.
Will report back
The nandroid might restore the problem.I'd try it first.if not , then do the full wipe reinstall as said above .if at the time of the nandroid back up it was working is a good possibility it will fix the issue. Hope this helps!

Couple of tips that might fix your problem.
If you're running aokp make sure you disable fast charge.
Turn on mtp in USB computer connection settings. I have trouble accessing the options from most custom roms, so a little work around is to install either apex or nova, long press add to home screen - shortcuts - activities - scroll down to Settings - USB computer connection(com.android.settings.usbsettings) . Tap it and you should get a shortcut. Select mtp.
Ultimately, the thing that fixed my same issue was getting a different USB cable lol. You can also try different ports on your computer.
Good luck, hope you can find a solution to your problem! If all else fails, you can try using airdroid for transfer over Wi-Fi
Anyone find a fix on this , mine has started doing this yesterday :crying:
Tried 3 different cables , different usb ports , different sd card , formatting sdcards in 4xt recovery , reflashing firmware.... also htc sync re installed for drivers (htc sync does not see the phone), adb re installed (adb does not see the phone??)
dont think its the rom as adb cannot see the phone in fastboot
anyone any other ideas , tried ninjasalad suggestion on enabling mtp also ??
I think you're fine. I had this problem after flashing ARHD 6.6.X, OrdDriod series, and PkMn series. What I did was the following:
Went into settings. Connect to PC. Unchecked the "ask me" , Restart phone. Then checked "ask me" again. Lastly, restarted phone again.
After doing that a couple times, it worked for me. Maybe you can try that.
This happened to me as well. I think it's a hardware problem

check these
make sure you have enabled usb debugging mode from settings
install htc drivers
install htc sync(i am not sure if it is necessary)
use 2.0 usb ports
use the original usb cable if you aren't using it yet
wont work, screen broken

I can't do that because to enable usb debugging mode you have to use the phone and the phone's screen is completely broken and there's no way to even get into it using the touch screen.

Sounds like you have tried everything.
May be something simple like the cable. Tried different one?
Different usb port

That's not good. You may want to return the phone.
For giggles go to bootloader and do factory reset 3 times in a row and see if it works.

maybe, with adb/fastboot installed on pc.
when in bootloader, does it show fastboot, and then change to fastboot USB when plugged in?
You could follow the tutorials to unlock, flash a recovery, install rom. and see what happens.

Hi all, a couple nights ago I flashed Lineage 15.1-20180806 to my OPO and everything went smooth. This morning I tried to connect it to my pc to transfer some pics and to my surprise the PC doesn't recognize it.
It looks like the PC is "trying" to establish a connection because the led in the phone blinks really fast for some small periods of time. The phone isn't charging when connected to the PC either.
What I have already tried:
- I already enable USB debugging in developer options
- Set MTP as default usb configuration
- Tried 2 different cables and different usb ports in PC.
I will try again in another computer when I get home but, honestly, this doesn't seem to be a problem with my PC or the cable as those were the ones I used when I flashed the rom and I also used the same cable when I transferred files to the same PC in the past. The phone was running Lineage OS 13 before the flash I think.
Any idea what else can I try to get it to work? I'm afraid I will be attached to this rom forever since I won't have a way to flash another ROM right?
EDIT:
If I go into recovery mode (TWRP) and plug the usb cable the PC recognizes it and I can transfer my files. So I'm 100% sure this is on Lineage OS. Again, when I get home I will see if ADB works while in TWRP but still would like to know if any of you guys has had this issue solved.
Thanks!

Is Lineage OS 15.1 supporting VoLTE by any way.
Had the same issue... and had this issue always coming back, currently with LOS18 (some devices worked, others didnt - couldnt see a pattern).
I tried all the triggers like setting File Transfer, disabling USB Debugging - nothing worked...
...until I rebooted my device (a YT703L).
In the end, it should be either (not sure which one actually)
File Transfer - always on (in DevSettings Default USB) or
USB Debugging off (also Dev Settings)
AND reboot.
