When I plug my phone into my PC it only charges. The notification bar does not allow me to select my method of connection. I've also tried going through the settings making sure the "ask me" box is checked. Any ideas??
Try a new cord
Root-Hack-Mod-Always™
I've had that happen a few times and I just reboot my phone to fix it. Hopefully that's all that you need.
Hi,
I am having trouble enabling USB debugging. The setting looks ok, and I can mark it, but if I go back, and enter the Developer Options again, the check box is not marked anymore. So somehow it seems that it is not saving it. If i stay in the Developer options menu after enabling it, it isn't working either.
My phone is rooted, but still on stock software. I am running build JRO03C.I9305XXALK5
I have tried searching for this issue, but noone seems to experience the same thing.
Any suggestions?

I just wanted to make a quick check to see if this was the only Developer option that was affected (It was). But then i tried again with USB debugging, and it works(!). It stopped working again later on, but simply enabling/disabling another option (I used 'Protect SD card') seems to "fix" it temporarily. :fingers-crossed:
Try dialing *#7284#
Select "Qualcomm USB Settings"
Select "MTP+ADB"
Hit OK and go back to exit
DO NOT PLAY WITH OTHER SETTINGS !!
This should switch it on and leave it on.
To go back to the normal setting use the first Option "MTP"
Title says it all, really.
I flashed CM12 onto my Kindle Fire 7" (5th Gen) and I disabled MTP by clicking 'charge only' for the USB connections.
Now, I can't enable MTP back on so I cannot access any files through the USB on my PC...
Any help? ;-;
Same here. I have no idea why. Also setting search doesn't work.

I've found a fix! Except I'm not sure if this will work for you I just randomly did stuff and it ended up working.
1. Download 'SG USB Mass Storage Enabler' on the App Store (can't post links, and yes, I know it's supposed to be for Samsung devices but... bare with me)
2. Grant root access, and click on 'MTP'.
3. At the top, if connected to a PC, and if you pull your notifications down, you may see 'Connected as a charging device' or something along the lines like that.
4. Tap it, it should be on MTP, except it probably won't be working, try tapping another option and then clicking on the notification again, it should still remain as 'Connected as a charging device.'
5. If so, replug into your PC and a notification should appear somewhere on your screen saying 'Fire - Choose what happens to this device'
6. Click on that, choose it to view files et voila! It should be up and running.
hai, can someone help me with this problem?
i already enable dev option and turn on usb debugging. but what happen is, when i connect my note to PC alwasys charging only. no option to change it to media transfer.
i already tried to changed setting on storage, but i can not find three dots menu. see attachment for the capture. tried restart ,turn off and turn on again the usb debbuging still the same.
or is it related with others setting, since i just used openline service las week to make my note 5 openline.
thank you.
Hi Everybody,
I'm trying to connect my Mi5 with my PC using MTP connection (i'm on Ubuntu). The problem is that I can see the device connected and mounted but i can't copy anything from it. It always crashes. Strange thing I can copy files from pc to the device without any problem, but if i try to copy something from the device to my pc it always says " libtmp: Could not get file from device."
I've also tried with windows, but nothing changed. i cannot copy or transfer any type of file.
While googling around i've found that this might be an Android 6.0 related problem rather that a MIUI one.
But i've also tried a possible solution that has been proposed which consists in changing a configuration under developer option and switch it back but it didn't work.
here's the steps i've followed:
Open Settings
Enable Developer options:
Go to About phone (or tablet)
Scroll to the bottom
Tap Build number repeatedly. After several taps you will see it count down and then say "You are now a developer!"
Back to Settings
Tap Developer options, near the bottom
Scroll down to and tap Select USB Configuration
Change it to Charging only
Tap Select USB Configuration again
Change it back to MTP (Media Transfer Protocol)
I don't know how to proceed.
If someone can help me it would be great!

Hi!
Try a factory reset. Maybe it will help. (just a thought)

Nope didn't work at all
How long do you have to tap build number?` nothing happens here :/
Edit.
Found it tapping Miui rather than build version, but cant find the USB configuration after being in developer mode.
@zofox I don't have a solution but can confirm the problem.
On WIndows 10 latest release, it's working like a charm.
When I connect the Mi 5 to a Usb 2 or Usb 3 port on Ubuntu (same computer) it does nothing, only charging works.
So that means: I am not sure if it's a problem with Ubuntu, your PC or both!

I'm using a dell XPS13 2015 and it doesn't work neither on windows or ubuntu
right now i'm using ftp to comunicate but it's pretty annoying also the fact that i can copy stuffs from pc to mi5 but not the opposite it's pretty strange ...
It might be the USB port(s) in question: check if the port used is on some external controller or part of the PCH/southbridge (i.e. part of the motherboard); next up, try direct ports instead of through USB hubs (if any in between). Other than this, I have no further idea.

Seems like it was a cable related problem ?
Changed it and everything works like a charm ?
Mods can close the discussion ?

First go to settings, then click the option 'about phone'.
Then click on 'miui version' several times until u become the developer.
Then go back to settings and find the 'developers option' in the 'additional settings' .
Afterwards look for the 'usb configuration' option in the 'networking' section.
There select the 'mtp' option
This worked very well for me and solved all my problem
change the cable works like a charm, thanks!! you guys save my semester.
This works like a charm to me. Only one thing I have noticed is, in my phone(Mi5) Developer options comes under Additional settings of systems& Device section.

That's exactly what helped me !
Thanx bro
I was facing the same issue in redmi note 5 pro.
I had same on Redmi 5 (rosy), my 'solution' was to drag drop down down, tap Android System and change from 'Charge this device' to 'Transfer files'. I was expecting a pop up when I connected the cable to select what I wanted to do, none came.
