I have an issue with my PC not recognizing my Captivate. When I plug in the USB cable to my PC, I can choose to activate USB mode and it prompts me to mount the drive, I say yes but nothing shows up in My Computer. I was able to do all this fine just a few days ago.
I have uninstalled/reinstalled the drivers. I installed Samsung Kies and it doesn't recognize the phone. I tried my phone on another PC and it won't show up there either. I've factory wiped the phone twice now.
Is it a problem with the phone or is there something I can do to get this to work?
I'm having the same issue. Did you get this resolved & if so, how? Tried both ports on my MB Pro & work PC...tried Samsung cable & another USB cable. Debugging is on.
Try Settings -> Applications -> USB Settings -> (select) Mass Storage
I found that when my captivate was set to Kies my computer wouldn't pick it up.
Mine was set to ask on connection. Tried mass storage mode (debugging off) & no dice. Back to ask on connection with debugging on, and still nothing. I've tried all 3 USB ports on my work laptop and both on the MB Pro. Any other ideas?
Did u try enabling "debug mode" and seeing if the PC recognizes it.
The main issue is usually your USB cable. I had the same issue. You need to find an OEM mini usb cable for it to work properly. The one that came with my phone works fine, but when i went to ATT and bought one for my work, it only lets you charge the phone and does not put your phone into USB connection mode.

The ones from MonoPrice work for me and they were like $1.50
Diablo: Been in debugging mode most of the time trying to get it to work. Main issue is getting my personal MB Pro to recognize, so I won't be able to check/tinker much until after work tonight.
cajuntigerbait: I've been using the provided Samsung cable – tried a work Blackberry cable (works fine with my work BB) to no avail as well.
Will update tonight. Any tried & true methods for cleaning the phone port while I'm at it? Thanks for the quick responses, everyone

Thanks, will check the site & order a few when I get a chance. Couldn't hurt to have a couple spares, right?
When I try to connect to the computer I get nothing, just a beep on the phone, I was getting an error and now I don't even get that on my computer. (USB still charges the phone though)
I tried 2 different cables, 2 different computers and 4 different operating systems, Windows based. And lots of Captivate USB drivers.
I have tried Kies, odin one click, mass storage, debugging on, off, everything I can think off.
I tried 2 different Roms, (Apex 7 and 10.1) 3 different kernels and 6 or more factory resets. MTP is listed under apps but when I plug in the USB cable I don't see it under running tasks.
I have a Captivate I896 running Gingerbread I9000 software. I would like to go back to stock but without USB I can not run the software, (computer does not see Captive in download mode or in recovery mode.)
Would anyone know how to troubleshoot this, is there a way to debug the software and see just what is happening on the phone.
Dam you have tried a lot of things... lol
I have a suggestion... have you try 'adb'?
Let me see If understand right...the problem is that ODIN is not recognizing your device and you want to go back to stuck? you don't specify if you can transfer files between your computer and phone...and also if you can connect with 'adb'.
Probably was you micro usb on your phone got damage...have you been experimenting with a jig?
ya I have tried adb and when I type in adb shell I get a response of no device found. and no the only thing that went in to the usb connector ever, was the Samsung usb micro cable. I think I will take it to Samsung next week if I can find the service center around me, I think it is still under warranty.
Check to make sure the cables you're trying are data/charging cables. My stock cable went out so I found one I had in the closet. The one I found would charge but no data passed (ie. PC wouldn't see it).
Hi guys, so I have a little bit of an issue! I've had my nexus 6 for about 3 months and i'm not sure when it happened or why but some how and some way no matter what rom I'm running, USB connection to desktop no longer works. I have tried turning adb on and off, reloaded drivers, and tried other computers. When I monitor device manager in Windows 10 no new devices are connected at all, just does not show up. No unknown device, adb, USB, nothing. So I'm not sure what I should do, I was thinking of claiming warranty however trying to avoid it. Any suggestions??????
P.S: Mounting external storage devices using otg is successful.
May there be some problem with your cable. Try different cable on all available usb port.
I've done that, no success
I've been using my Mi5 for 6 months without any real issues, the occasional bug like fingerprint scan missing ect but overall no problem. Right now I am experiencing a problem that is driving me crazy. The USB options do not show up, only that it is charging. My PC doesn't recognize it anymore, and gives error 43. (USB device descriptor failed.) MiFlash, MiPCSuite all do not recognize it either.
Any help or solution would be greatly appreciated, I've spent days combing through potential fixes to no avail.
What I have tried:
-Mi PC Suite
-Mi Flash
-Default Android Drivers
-3 Different cables (2 xiaomi, 1 off brand)
-Factory Reset / Data Wipe
-QShortcut to force mtp usb options
-Developer options USB debugging on + selecting charging / mtp
-Reinstalling INF
-Disabing drivier signature enforcement
I've went as far as trying a different rom ect to no avail. It seems to revolve around the mi5 not recognizing usb connection, only charging for instance can't use usb charging
I've tried many options in terms of drivers, replaced the usb port and tech told me it was most likely motherboard issue and then tried to sell me a new phone. Unfortunately, I am living somewhere without many options for authorized support so looks like I'm out of luck.
Also tried different pc's, cables, roms, ect. All seems to stem from mi5 no recognizing usb
Hi,
Sorry not a solution but I'm having exactly the same problem too. Was fine for the first few months but then suddenly nothing. I've also tried it (with different cables) on :
Windows 10 PC
Windows 7 laptop
Linux Mint laptop
Macbook Air
And nothing but charging mode. Changing setting in developer options does nothing either. I've resigned to the fact it's most likely a hardware problem
Hi,
i had the problem that mi5 was not found by pc after a fresh install of windows 10 64bit.
I found a solution somewhere in the www
I have downloaded and installed the windows 10 N pack ( media feature pack ).
After that, restart the pc and try to connect the mi5 again.
This solution worked for me.
I have the same issue. Is there any solution? Is it covered by the guarantee?
Same problem here with mi6, maybe if we replacement de usb port of the phone?

Same Problem, Need Help
does anyone have same problem i need help and probably a fix to this problem, fastboot not detected too, i am currently using windows 10.. driver that i found online does not help either
hi, i need help in this case aswell. initially there no OS on my mi5, computers absolutely doesnt see phone (no unknown device etc, just nothing), so i can not send any zip file to install an OS. i can access trwp, tried OTG connection but it doesnt see either
Wow.. so I'm not the only one who has this issue.
Too bad there aren't any solution in this thread. My guest that it has something to do with the hardware. My phone is not recognized on PC and it is not charging properly either.
The strange thing is that it can charge on unknown chargers. It doesn't charge on "authentic" chargers (Xiaomi chargers, well-known brands like Aukey).
Solution
Guys (and gals)
I have the solution, i was as desperate as you all and it took a lot of digging into it, IT IS SO SIMPLE :
Download the app "USB SETTING" for MIUI and just turn on the option for file transfer, it also solves the ethernet problem. It worked for me, that's it.
(I also activated the USB debugging in the developer settings but I don't think it helped, as a matter of fact the right setting is present there in "select USB configuration" but refuses to work on my phone at least)
I hope it helped,
All the best on your paths <3
Hi everyone
here I've got a terrible issue with my note 8 and SAMSUNG USB OTG.
When I connect my otg and a flash memory to phone, nothing happens, unless you force restart the phone while the otg is connected. After booting I can access to my flash memory but after removing the otg and reconnecting it, again nothing happens unless force restarting.
I've tried everything possible. Downgrading, upgrading, 4 files rom, pit file, rom from different zones, but still have the problem. I have no other issues regarding the USB port and charging, fast charging, connection to computer and any other stuff works fun but this OTG.
I wanted to know if anyone have any solutions for my problem or if anyone had the same issue or not.
it is also worth to mention that I have not rooted my phone due to warranty issues, and for that I haven't tested any kernels.
thanks for everyone

That isn't right... As soon as I plug in my OTG USB key it detects it, no restart required.

allow file transfer .... possible
Nope, I have developer options enabled but debugging isn't on. never had to enable file transfer.
When I plug in the OTG device I see a usb icon in the notification panel. Swipe down and pick explore. Mind you it only opens in the stock file explorer, I did have another file explorer that picked it up too but can't think what it is and it has been lost myriad of other apps I test and play with...
Just be aware that it may take a few seconds to scan the device,depending on size, and then display the icon.

i know it sounds weird but from past experience flaky USB drives are more trouble than they are worth, from first hand experience i know patriot, corsair and sandisk work well as OTG drive
also you neglected to mention the file system the USB was formatted with, i believe only FAT, FAT32 and exFAT are supported

also possible that the phone doesn't like your OTG adapter. I bought a usb 2.0 to type C adapter which doesn't even work on the phone - when I plug it in usually the moisture sensor error comes up saying water is in the device and I should let it dry. Unplug the OTG and the error goes away.
So... I bought a USB 3.0 A to type C OTG adapter and that one works fine with everything I've tested (usb flash drives, keyboard, usb ethernet adapter, etc)
I believe the USB-C to USB-A adapter that came with the phone is actually an OTG adapter (tested xbox360 controller and keyboard)
I also believe that the note8 can host usb flash drive native (no need for OTG cable) as i have a dual head USB-C and USB-A flash drive which is recognized once the USB-C end is plugged in

I'm test with any OTG cable or.....not work
also reconnect and again connected but no answer
only with force restart
Sorry to dredge up a semi old thread, but has anyone found a fix for this?
I'm having almost the same issue, I finally decided to try out the OTG adapter from the box and nothing works, it isn't even recognized. Tried ps4 controller, mouse, keyboard 2 different thumb drives. Can't figure out what the deals is.
Other than that pc connection seems to work and charging works fine. TIA
I'm having a similar problem. A month ago, used both OTG adapters (original from Samsung and a generic one) it detects my memory sticks as a hard-disk and was able to manage my files. But since a couple of weeks ago it does not detect them anymore. Is like it did not supply charger to them anymore. I have tried the USB debugging menu and no difference at all. Even I got back to factory reset expecting to solve the issues but nothing happened. The port as such is working perfectly because I'm able to charge through it. On the other hand, Samsung DEX is not working as well. It just charges the phone but never boot-up.
I'm just waiting for Oreo and hopes this will sort the problems out.

That sounds like a bodged port to me man
Is there any dust or dirt in there that you can see?
I really don't think Oreo's gonna fix that for you

Seems to be a little bit dusty. Anyway, the other thing is that, when the Usb is detected it ask to choose between transfer files, images, midi device and so on, even if I choose "transfer files" mode it always get stuck as "charge connected device".
Hi i have the same problem... my note 8 can connected mith my notebook, but my otg with an usb stick cant recognize my note8. I test the same otg with usb stick on my friends phone example S8 and it detects promptly all.
I hope the fixing take not long time. I waiting for help. Greets
Well, adding one more case here, my native file manager doesn't recognize any memory connected via the original otg conector, but, using x-plore file manager, problem solved, as I use x-plore since my symbian days, I never gave this issue much importance, this problem was present also with my note 7

This. I have exactly the same experience. I bought a couple of months ago a new Note 8, and finally decided to try the OTG adapter that came in the box. Nothing worked. I tried the adapter with a friends phone and it worked like magic (USB drives, mice, keyboards, controllers, etc.).
Would really apreaciate if anyone can provide help on this issue... Cheers!
