USB Connection Mode - Xperia Z4/Z3+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys.. Do any of you know where the USC Connection Mode resides in Settings ?? I've changed the connection mode from MTP to PTP when trying to use Helium and now I can't seem to find the connection mode page where I can change back to MTP.. Usually its under Xperia Connectivity>USB Connectivity, but it's just isn't there.. I have also used the search button in the Settings page but still could not find it..

I think you have messed up your systemui.apk file usually The notification bar shows the Type of Connection ...
But still now Visit Play Store and Install "SG USB MASS STORAGE ENABLER APP"
It will mount your device as MTP again!

I've tried your suggestion but the app requires root, which I don't have.. Any other suggestions ??
Messing up with the SystemUI.apk is one thing, but where on earth did Sony hid the USB Connection Mode page anyway ?? There must be a way to access it..

You must ask that to Sony Corporation too???
Having A Root Access is the only solution I have!!!
If Your Phone is in warranty approach the Sevice Centre!!!

I'll be the first person on earth to claim warranty for such small issue then.. Lol haha..

Thats a Thing!!!
Then just wait for an OTA update, it might help!

I'm already on the latest .251 firmware.. I doubt any OTA are coming any time soon.. Thought of doing a phone repair via PC Companion but the problem is my PC doesn't seem to detect my phone.. I'll try rebooting both devices to see if it helps..

SGS I9000 Issue: No detection

Hey all,
facing a weird issue with SGS lately after ROM ing it with Darky's ROM 10.2 EE, my phone doesnt get detected by kies and also as a usb device
to resolve the USB issue i downloaded the USB drivers and reinstalled still it gets recognised as a usb device and i cant access it see screenie below
now this is a little pain as the stupid kies makes a single backup file of the entire thing and i cant import my contacts
Thanks
Kamikaze
I believe you have to be on a Samsung ROM for KIES to recognize the phone.
True hence need solutions as to how can I get back my data which was backed up by kies

(head in hands).......why didnt you just google all your contacts in first place, then you will never ever have this problem! kies wont recognise your phone with a custom rom on it! in future think before you flash
Sad... so any solutions?

there is a way of getting your contacts back on phone but i have no idea what it is, but it involves converting the file format and pushing them back with adb, sorry i cant help you

Sure: Reflash a stock rom, restore contacts from kies, back them up using something else (port to google or use another wifi backup system on the computer). Then redo your custom flashing.
The details I don't know but that is the path....
Thx for the advice gfacer : D also how to get my sgs detected ?

It should be detected with proper drivers and a stock rom in kies. But better yet don't use kies its horrible.

You can download the USB drivers separately, install and try out different USB connectors. Maybe some old are bound to the odd drivers

Not able to connect to PC SUITE on P970 with Korean V30I :(

Have flashed my p970 with korean V30I yesterday, but am not able to connect to PC Suite. Actually I wanted to restore my backedup data(Contacts and Memo),
If anyone was successfully able to make connection with PC Suite 4, please explain. :crying:
Software version that I had before flash: v20G-India
PS: One thing I have tried, installing "Republic of Korea"'s Use Drivers, but still no connection possible, then reverted back to P970 Driver.
Of course you can't,in the first place LG does not recognise any other firmwares above v20s.And the ICS ROM is unstable and can't connect to computer

Transfer Files To Phone Without USB.

NO need for USB Cables anymore to transfer files From PC to ANDROID Devices and vice versa.​
Had seen this Procedure on some tech site (Sorry but i dont remember the name) but couldn't follow it. Finally tried it myself and here is the procedure:
Requirements​
ES FILE EXPLORER
Wi-Fi Hotspot (with or without internet)
Procedure​
Connect Phone and Pc to the Same Wi-Fi network.
Open ES File Explorer > Press options > Side bar appears.
Choose TOOLS > REMOTE MANAGER > TURN ON
A link like 190.000.0.0:1234 is shown. Copy it somewhere.
Options > In side bar choose NETWORK > Select FTP.
Select "+NEW" from bottom bar > FTP
In "Port" Type the Link leaving the last 4 digits and colon. Like this "ftp://190.000.0.0"
In "Port" type the last 4 digits only > Check ANONYMOUS box > Ok
Open any Folder in your Desktop and type in the FULL LINK in the Address bar. Like this "ftp://190.000.0.0:1234"
Congrats, thefolder which appears is your Sd-Card.
Now you can Copy Paste whatever you want to your Sd-Card.
Note
You can also use another Android device as Hotspot
Internet connection is NOT needed
File transfer may take time depending on network speed
This procedure needs to be followed only once. Next time only switching on the REMOTE SETTINGS will do​
Don't Say Thanx use the Button Below
Nice thread. Could be handy to people that have damaged their USB slot.

Yes i know its a bit longer. But u know i find ES file explorer very useful as it has many features. So decided to base my tutorial on that. Plus i havent tried it by any other app.

Its beacause of oxidation in usb cable that has on it speaker and power button,33 euros to fix even with root,go fix when u have the money,and avoid water when it rains,and use wifi sharing apps so that usb doesnt brake again.USBcable in p970 is problematic i guess.
I have the same problem , i tried to flash CM10.1 from ICS and my phone bricked . When i try to flash stock rom with smart flash tool the phone is not recognized , when i'm in s/w upgrade mode. do you think is a hardware problem ?

I think my problem is because of drops. I dropped this phone like 100 times. Still good. But yeah. Power button dead. Cannot connect as mass storage. Or anything else. But i can charge.

Squeeze the phone hard beside the camera and see if the button works while doing this. Basically squeeze where the USB port is.

That wouldn't work, since the process requires the phone to be connected to the pc...and the port doesn't work

rooting does not break warranty so you can give a rooted device to Sony repair centre with no worries..
Close thread the problem was that i put the usb cable the wrong side
