[Q] LG G Flex won't go into charge mode (USB) - LG G Flex

Hey guys so my buddy is over at my place trying to have me help him root his phone and when running ioroot.bat it asks for you to put your phone into charge mode for when it's plugged into USB. Simple enough, I put it into charge mode but as soon as I change into charge mode It switches to PC Software automatically and I got pissed and quit. So now I have come to XDA to be enlightened, please and thank you!

That's because it is going to default to PC software if the lg PC suite has not been loaded and set up on his PC. Also in the "PC connection" settings unchecked "ask upon connecting".
Then you should be good to go.

and what will when i make it... this start my rom over again like the first time that i install it ?
ammm after i doin a hard reset its still doesn't work for me...
some 1 ? ...
have you tried a different USB cable.
I had a similar issue before and it turned out it was the USB cable itself.
yeah i try it...
Did you try it on another computer?
When you connect the phone to the USB port, do you get the popup asking how you would like to use it? *ActiveSync, USB Disk, internet sharing)
If you don't get one, check your settings: Start Menu -> Settings -> Connections -> USB to PC.
Check what the options are and if the "Ask me first about USB connection" is enabled.
Reconnect the phone and see if it works.
If it still doesn't work, you should check the Device Manager in your Windows computer (if you use one that is). See if the device is recognised. You can try to remove the device and reinstall the drivers for it.
ai try on snythere computer and nothing. the phone asking me about active,usb disk and internet sharing. and also nothing. so i thing that my usb connecting s burn imself. lucky that we have bluetooth, slowly but it fine... 10q for trying helping me
maybe this works
hi,
I had the same problem, try this:
go to preferences > connections > usb to pc > and uncheck the advanced networking checkbox.
After that it worked for me. BUT! I Was unable to connect to the internet on my phone through my usb cable!
So I just uninstalled active sync disconnected my phone, checked advanced networking back on again and reinstalled active sync, be sure to remove all previous pairings between your pc and your phone. I hope this works for you
greets Daan
ps always make a back up of your contacts and stuuf when uour doing these kind of things, active sync just sucks *****
nope, nothing...
**** man must be hardware:s i hope not.
cant think of anything else but to send it back for repair
good luck

Potential (very annoying) USB connection issue

I went into menu -> settings -> connectivity, and set the USB connection to "Always Ask" when connecting to a computer so that it would ask me if I want to use Charging/Mass Storage/Media Sync/etc. Even with that box checked, no matter what I do, when I connect the phone to my computer, it does NOT ask me what USB connection mode to use. Can anyone else confirm whether or not they experience this problem?
Thanks!
SOLVED - driver conflict with my Samsung Epic. Connecting one then the other wreaks all sorts of havoc.
call Verizon or LG for that support..OR try your control panel windows settings..devices

Is the little USB symbol showing up in the notification bar?
If not...try a different USB port on the computer.
Sounds dumb, i know...but it worked for me today when I had the same problem. And I think I recall it working on my old Incredible.
SOLVED
SOLVED - driver conflict with my Samsung Epic. Connecting one then the other wreaks all sorts of havoc, between mass storage mode and whatnot. When I switch the LG from charge to mass storage and back on the fly, it's doing something to the samsung drivers. When i reconnected my samsung, then the LG again, things went cuckoo for cocoa puffs until I rebooted.
I can't post a new topic as I have less then ten posts but I have an issue with my connectivity as well. When unplugged the phone still shows the USB icon in the top left corner like it is plugged in. However when plugged in the phone will charge but when connected to a computer mass storage mode will not work or show up. I have tried it in windows xp/ osx on my MacBook. Windows 7 on my desktop and nothing. The drivers are good as it was working before. I have done a wipe/data, restored back to cubed 1.1 mod and it is still doing it. It doesn't bug me that bad as I use andftp to move my apostle back and forth from my NAS to sdcard. But I would like it fixed as trying to put music or ISO's for my psx emulator can take a minute over the wifi. Any help would be appreciated.

Why am i getting a Factory data cable connected and i cannot switch between usb modes?

[Q] how to enter mass storage mode with PC seamlessly?

Hey guys, been trying to figure out how to connect my phone to my pc without having to have kies installed on every computer I access using the usb cable. After struggling for a while I figured out the problem was because I had usb debugging mode activated, and once I unchecked it abracadabra! I was able to access my memory card just like any regular flash disk. The only problem am experiencing now is that, even though I have usb debugging unchecked, every time I connect the usb cable it automatically becomes checked again. meaning I have to go through the long process of going to settings> applications> development, to uncheck it again. Why is this happening?

Install these samsung drivers and you will be able to do so.

Dont quite get the problem.
When I plug in the USB cable to the phone and PC, the phone's task bar shows a small icon at the top. I pull down the task bar (or what ever it is called - it is pull down), touch the info about USB, and up comes a dialog box about enabling USB storage. I touch OK, and there is a warning about not being able to use apps on the USB. I touch OK again, and I am now connected to the PC.
First time or so, I was asked to turn off USB debugging, and never had to do it again.
Then maybe its an issue with my phone, originating from the factory, coz everytime I connect I am forced to go find the usb debugging option from way deep in settings coz nothing appears in the drop down task bar until I uncheck it. I am now getting paranoid considering the first time I bought it and took it home I found out that the standard micro sd card I was issued with did not work and had to go back to the store and get a replacement card. Maybe I should have opted for a different phone too. "cockroach theory"

Thanks for the drivers, but that was not the solution I was looking for exactly as that would mean I would have to install them on every computer I ever connect to, seeing as I prefer to double up my phone as a flash disk too coz its harder to loose and no pal would ever ask to use your phone to go borrow something (thats how flashdisks get lost) and I can also charge the phone when am copying new movies and songs, catch my drift.

If i recall correctly this also happened to me when i bought the phone. But after i installed samsung kies or the drivers it got ok. But as you say, if you use many computers its not pratical. I mainly use this one so no problem for me.

When you use your phone as a flash drive, you can expect to use it as a normal flash drive - simply plug it in, and the PC recognises a USB mass storage device. There ought to be no need for any drivers. Even on windows PCs.
But, you will have to unmount the SD card from within the phone.
If you need to disable USB debugging mode each time, try disabling USB debugging without the USB cables plugged in The phone ought to remember it. The menu option is, IIRC, settings > USB and media.
Things are slightly different in 2.2.2 froyo, 2.4.5, 2.4.6 and the current 7.1 CM custom kernel I am using. So, I cannot exactly remember the menu option. But, it is not a driver issue.
BTW, I installed the samsung USB drivers for Kies and ODIN from the phone on a newly installed OS, and was on stock 2.2.2 Froyo then so I am very sure that this is not a USB drivers issue.
My phone just updated to 2.3.6 and every time I plug the USB cable in, debugging mode automatically activates, even though I have unchecked it without USB cable plugged or after it was plugged. When I try to enter mass storage mode I get prompted that some apps might not work while in this mode. I tap OK and the phone tries to connect but after a while reverts back to debugging. That would not be a problem if I was at my home computer as running keys unlock the mass storage mode adn I can use Total commander to load what I want, but when at work, I do not have admin right so I can not install driver. Until yesterday I was on Froyo 2.2.1 and mass storage was no issue...

I wish i could revert back to FROYO v2.2.1 , yet , i unable to find a valid/working download link for Froyo 2.2.1 DXKC1 , so i had to stick with it now or later.

Droid 3 undetectable

Alright, So I'm looking to help a friend get to the point where they can plug in their Droid 3 and it actually work.
Have plugged into every USB port, have installed the drivers Verizon reccomends installing for the device.
Basically we called up Verizon, and requested to get a actual OEM/Motorla cable. They sent a actual Motorola cable. Still doesn't work.
From what I understand the device has only been detected ONCE, and it was unsuccessful at finding drivers, now when you plug it in it doesn't even try to look for drivers. It just charges. gives you no options to mount or anything.
I've shot in and uninstalled alot of the drivers so it would cause it to re-detect and that attempt was unsuccessful as well. Uninstalled the Motorola driver application and did the same thing over, Uninstalled the USB drivers. Still nothing.
The device does run the most current version of Android, It is running stock. any clues?
perhaps try to manually install the drivers control panel/hardware/devices an printers
Have you checked the actual setting for the usb connection itself? Is it on charge only mode? Try a different computer if you can, if not, see if you can change the setting for when you first plug it into a computer, you should get the options of pc mode, charge only, media sync, and hard disk.

Jell - I'll shoot in and give that a shot if I can see if I can, Is i'll check for a driver package on the forums I guess see if anyone has one
Josh -- Not sure how to actually set the setting for the usb connection rather then when you plug it in and it asks for you to set it.
You plug it in and it charges, Doesn't ask what mode you want to put it in. Its like you're plugging it into a charger.
I have the same problem with connecting. My phone isn't recognizing that its plugged into a computer, it thinks it is plugged into a wall charger. It would be nice to know if anyone have figure this problem out.

usb debbuging
to use the phone as a usb drive you need to enable usb debugging. go into menu, settings, application, development. when conneted to a computer your phone will beep then just use pull down menu screen touch the message for usb connection..... little guy will turn orange......then your phone will show up on computer like a usb pen drive. drap and drop files.
