Hello, and welcome to XDA Assist! Have you tried enabling it from Developer Options? If not, tap 7 times on Settings>About Phone>Build Number, and this will unlock developer options for you. From there, you can enable Android Debugging. If you just want to enable USB, go to Storage, tap on the three dots on the top right, and choose USB options, and select MTP.
Good luck!

Can't Find PTP in usb settings

So on my Galaxy A8 I have developer options unlocked with USB debugging on and when I plug in USB to my computer it asks me if i want to allow access to phone data. Deny obviously makes it so its only charging but accept and I can access files (all well and good so far). However when I go to Tap for other USB options it has options for Use USB for: Transferring files, USB tethering, MIDI, Transferring images, and charging phone only... however I can't actually change any of these options.... So why can't I change the options, and is Transferring images ptp?

Yeah I'm in usb settings but the actual settings are locked out from changing... does anyone know why this is?

A8 USB
I have this problem too. I can 't choose for other usb options. I haven't enable USB debugging.

Hi, if you enable developer options then you can choose under developer options - default USB configuration - which option you want.

i tried all of those options and none of them work, is there any other ideas?

How do I enable USB debugging for Lineage 16 secondary users?

I have got Lineage 16 and created 3 different users:
owner;
user A;
user B.
Further than that, I was able to enable USB debugging only for the owner profile.
Neither "user A" or "user B" has this setting or even developer tools.
- I tried enabling developer tools, but nothing happens after clicking on "build number" multiple times.
Can you guys help me enable USB debugging for these secondary profiles?

Εxplain wireless debugging

I noticed that in the developer options there is an option for wireless debugging. Does it work?
Can somebody explain to me how can I use it?
Is it like a USB debugging, only we don't use cable?

Wireless debugging is a new feature in developing, which allows developer to leave USB cable behind and connect your phone to your computer via ADB completely over Wi-Fi. To use wireless debugging head to Developer Options from Settings –> System –> Advanced or at the bottom of the Settings app. Tap the "Wireless debugging" option, check "Always allow on this network," then press "Allow.".

It works great. I had read about it in the past but this is my first phone to implement that

Does this work if the PC is ethernet wired and not on wifi? Same local wan (router). I am getting error that the target machine (phone Oneplus 8T) actively refused it. Used: adb tcpip 5555. Set Dev Options on to wireless debugging, etc. Used phone ip address.

How To: Change Default USB Configuration

If you're like me and hate having to switch your device to "File Transfer" every time you connect it to your computer, you're in luck. Here's how to change the default USB mode:
Enable Developer Options:
Go to Settings > About Phone > Scroll to bottom
Tap on Build number 8 times. You will get a notification reading "Congratulations, you are now a developer!
Go back one menu and tap System
Tap Developer Options
Scroll down until you see the Default USB Configuration toggle. It is in the Networking group right after the WiFi settings. Enable the toggle.
Select your desired USB mode:
File Transfer / Android Auto: Pretty self explanatory, your device will automatically appear as an external device when connected to your PC, and Android Auto will automatically connect
USB Tethering: This is the wired version of the hotspot
MIDI: This is for sound/musical applications, usually with an external instrument and/or mixer
PTP: In this mode your device will appear to your PC as a digital camera
No data transfer: This is the standard 500mA USB charging mode. Please note your device will continue to charge in other modes so there's no need to select this mode specifically to charge.
Hope this helps!

Will USB mode 5. No data transfer or charging only prevent juice jacking?
