I'm not 100% sure but i think since i updated my Z3 Compact to MM via my phone updator i haven't been able to connect any flash drives via OTG. now the thing is in setting > USB Connectivity , the only option is Install Software while i have seen couple of other options in other phones in 6.0.1
is it possible that if i re-install the stock rom (6.0.1) via my PC the problem would go away??

You should be able to connect flash drives via OTG.(File Commander recognizes it well on my 6.0.1 firmware)
As for the USB Connectivity setting, it changed on 6.0.1 and 4 connectivity options will appear on your screen whenever you connect it to your PC when you connect it through your USB cable.

the problem is that the only option for me in USB Connectivity is Install Software. i think i should re-install the stock 6.0.1 ROM via PC. by the way OTG does't work. doesn't show any noticifications even.

Are you on 6.0.1? If yes, then Install Software is the only option you should find in USB Conmectivity settings! That's how it's built....sony removed the options and you have to choose usb Conmectivity whenever you connect your phone to your pc!
As for the USB,did you try File Commander?!

It could be a faulty usb otg cable...you can try using it on an other device and see if it works there. If it does,then your device has the problem, but unfortunately, I can't suggest you a solution other than flashing stock firmware.

Looks like your device has a problem then, or your usb otg isn't compatible with your device. Try reaching Sony Mobile Support once whenever you find time here.

Hi guys,
I have a real nasty problem here. Whenever i want to connect my SGS in download mode to reflash i get the error "usb device not recognized". When i just connect it as storage i get "this device can perform faster". I habe MIUI 1.12.9 on it, and I really want to flash something else. It stopped working since I accidentally connected my front USB's in the IEEE 1394 slot, instead of the USB one. Since then my external HDD won't work anymore, I had to open it and to use it as an internal one. Is there anything I could do? Or is smth f...ed up with my phone usb...
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
got it working on your pc in download mode before?
Try to reinstall the newest Samsung drivers.

Once or twice when I get this message I just take out the USB from my laptop and connect it again.. if you are constantly getting this message I think something's wrong with USB.. I would suggest trying to connect on some other computer .. if that also doesn't work then try using a different USB cable..
I already tried on a different PC. Also with another USB cable but a Nokia one. Is it necessary to use a Samsung one?

No not really.. I have used a nokia cable many times and it has worked fine for me both in download mode and usb storage mode..
if you connect your phone in usb storage mode to a different computer, still the same message is flashed?
Actually on another computer I didn`t manage to connect at all, download mode or mass storage. Everything worked just fine before the USB thing.

You can:
1. use a different USB port
2. use a different pc
3. use a program to go to download mode ( POT android tools by opda team).
on different pc - install those USB drivers ->

Do you have Motorola Device Manager Installed?
If not then Download Here: Click Here
Yes it is installed properly
Ok.
First check this : First open Settings then navigate to Storage and touch the upper-right corner for the USB computer connection options. Make sure Media device (MTP) is selected.
If this doesn't work then well you need to update the driver for your phone which your computer is using. Go to device mangaer on your pc and click on your phone name and update all drivers(left click to see options).
Still not working
It worked for half hour and then gone again
Hi, I've a Honor 5C NEM-L51. It's not rooted and TWRP is not installed, but bootloader has been unlocked.
The main problem is that I cannot install TWRP via USB because phone USB is broken (device cannot be recognized by PC). Charging battery still works :angel:
I'm looking for a way to root (or installing TWRP on) my NEM-L51 without using USB. I can transfer files via local network thanks to a good files explorer APP installed on my phone, so I can transfer files between PC <-> NEM-L51 without USB, via my home network.
My phone is on Android 7, but maybe I could use integrated Recovery mode to downgrade, if needed.
What do you suggest for rooting my NEM-L51 or installing TWRP on it, without using USB?
Thank you!
install drivers to pc and it will work.

Hi,
Just a suggestion, try with another usb cable.
Yesterday I was going to flash twrp recovery with a borrowed cable and I was unable to get it working not recognized by windows 10 and the adb_1.4.3 package previously installed.
I decided to try with another cable and it worked !
So this is my advice.
Well in most of the cases usb cables are incompatible for different models

check once whether device drivers are present in PC device manger
Sorry bro , that was an issue with the cable.
Use other USB cables: check (but doesn't work)
Drivers and ADB (softwares stuff): check (trying another Android device on my PC and even my NEM on others PCs)
I'm pretty sure that file transfering (and USB debugging) cannot work anymore on my phone. Still charge the phone ATM.
But... well... Non-rooted Android 7 is good, in fact

Sorry I'm not clear enough: I've tested other Android devices on my main computer and they worked. I've also connected my NEM smartphone (broken one) on other computers where other Android devices work, still no luck. So this NEM cannot be recognized on any computer, with or without Android drivers. Plus, on my main PC, the NEM smartphone was recognized but since a bad day, it didn't worked anymore.

Have to tried to change the data cable ?
When I plugged in my T-mobile LG L90 D415 into PC using USB cable, why didn't my PC detect anything? All it did is charging the device.
Already installed LG USB driver, PC Suite, and nothing is detected. There is no exclamation mark in PC device manager either.
In smartphone settings, all I see is Storage, no USB & Storage option like all other devices I owned before.
I reset the phone and start over and nothing changes.
Another thing is that the device always say there is a system update and already downloaded 82MB file, yet everytime I try to update the device, it always fails.
What gives?

T-Mobile stock ROM 5.0.2
Developers options enabled.
No difference.

Are there 2 types of USB cables?
One for charge only and the other "data & charge"?
How to tell the difference?
Got 2 cables and both can only charge the device.
Being swapping cables for my mom & dad's devices, but they are not with me now.

I think I'll send you a kdz for the d415 variant of an older version with stock KitKat. If you go into download mode and flash it offline with the instructions somewhere here on XDA. Just search for it. Then it should work. But first make sure your phone is detected in download mode.

Also look for a lg USB driver download thing. This makes the USB act like a virtual USB CD drive to get the drivers and see if it works. If you can't find a setting to change the USB probably does not have data. But check with download mode.
Finally have time to test again and found that USB cable is the culprit. Don't know why I didn't discover that earlier.
Anyway, I managed to root the device after several tries (since the Kingroot that came with the system sucks and not compatible with many apps) and flash it with SlimROM 7.1.2 with Nano Gapps and it looks absolutely slim and beautiful!
Hope it works for me. Cheers!

Connect the phone to your PC, then head to the "Android System" on your silent notifications, find "Charging this device via USB", tap on it and you'll be taken to the USB page, then tap on "File Transfer"

i connect my phone to laptop, nothing detects but only slow charging starts, even USB debugging is on, default mtp is chosen but no results.

Sounds like your port is broken, might need a replacement.
